"Cough!"
Bai Ye shifted the camera back to himself, letting out a slight cough to ease the awkwardness. "That giant octopus is still down there, but… there's a small problem at the moment!"
Problem? The netizens were taken aback, then their faces lit up with intense interest.
"Holy cow! I actually heard the word 'problem' from Brother Ye! That's rare! Sending a rocket to liven things up!"
"What kind of problem could stump Brother Ye from eating delicious food?"
"Haha! Does Brother Ye also encounter difficulties?"
"Brother Ye, hurry up and tell us, what's the difficulty? We'll help you solve it! (⸝⸝•‧̫•⸝⸝)"
...
"The problem is…" Bai Ye chuckled, "I don't know how to swim!"
(´⊙w⊙`)??? The netizens were stunned, then erupted in uproarious laughter.
"Hahaha! What did I just hear? Brother Ye, who can fly and traverse the earth, actually doesn't know how to swim??"
"Alright, alright! Finally, I found something I'm better at than Brother Ye. What can't I do? But I just happen to know how to swim!!!"
"Unbelievable, I never imagined! I can actually be better than Brother Ye at something!"
"Don't be scared, Brother Ye! Swimming is simple, just jump in and wave your hands vigorously!"
"Brother Ye, I'm a swimming instructor! I'll teach you for free if you need it!"
...
Bai Ye shook his head slightly. That's right, he really didn't know how to swim, but with a kind of spatial power, let alone in this shallow sea, even in the Mariana Trench, he wouldn't drown!
The reason he wasn't pulling up the giant octopus was because Elder Song from the Great Xia's high command had sent a pressure-inducing message about an expert team, urging him to be more restrained. Princess Qinghe from Country R hadn't said anything!
However, how could Bai Ye bear to give up such a peerless delicacy! Moreover, after leaving his own ranch, he hadn't touched such magically nourished deliciousness for a long time.
If it weren't for that toad being so ugly last time, Bai Ye probably wouldn't have been so heavy-handed…
"Haha! To not get the deliciousness right at his mouth, Brother Ye has days like this!"
"Hurry up and go to Brother Ye's ranch, tell the little animals this big news!"
"If the little animals in Brother Ye's ranch knew he couldn't swim, they'd all probably go learn to swim!"
"Haha… I can picture it!"
...
The netizens grew more excited as they spoke, some even laughing with schadenfreude!
Seeing them so delighted, Bai Ye also found it a bit amusing. With a shift of his hand, a flute forged from ice appeared.
"Everyone has probably seen many instances of using flute music to attract birds or communicate with small animals, like snakes, squirrels, and rabbits." Great Wind Novel Network
"But… you've probably never seen communication with fish using a flute, have you?"
Bai Ye's two sentences immediately ignited the attention and interest of over fifty million netizens.
Good heavens! You can communicate with fish too???
"Last time, I was attracted by Brother Ye's piece,
"Good heavens! Is it dolphins or killer whales? Among the creatures in the sea that can barely communicate with us humans, it's only these few!"
"By the way, there shouldn't be any dolphins or killer whales in this sea area, right?"
...
Watching Bai Ye's serious demeanor, the netizens became even more excited. Their minds raced with conjectures.
Meanwhile, Bai Ye on the scene brought the beautiful ice crystal flute to his lips and began to play. Simultaneously, an invisible, abyss-like demonic power was unleashed without restraint.
Beneath the sea, the fish that were happily feasting immediately stopped, as if they had encountered a terrifying natural predator. Whether large or small, their bodies trembled in fear, immobile!
"Holy cow! Isn't this the divine song
"I'm also very curious… are the languages of land and sea the same?"
"Hey, hey? Friends from Great Xia, what is this song? It's so beautiful, please enlighten us!"
"So, Lord Bai Ye created such classic music earlier! No wonder! No wonder he has musical talent comparable to Prince Houying!"
...
While the livestream was still bustling with activity, the sea surface in front of Bai Ye suddenly showed movement; something was swimming up!
"Holy cow!!!"
"It actually came out! I think the flute Brother Ye is holding is extraordinary, probably a legendary magic flute!"
"Sharks! So many sharks!"
"Nani? Great white sharks! What are they doing?"
As one shark fin after another emerged, a massive tentacle was laboriously lifted out of the water by them.
Upon seeing this, the netizens in the livestream were stunned again!
These… sharks are bringing the octopus from the sea to Brother Ye? Can these sharks be tamed?
(lll¬w¬) Wait… this octopus tentacle? Why is it so enormous???
༼ノ۞⌂۞༽ノ!!!
Looking at the tentacle that emerged from the water, which was four to five times larger than the great white sharks, the audience could no longer sit still.
"Brother Ye, is this the giant octopus you mentioned? Is it just a little big???"
