The mermaids all nodded in agreement. After all, how could they not sense such huge waves crashing against the crescent-shaped sea?
Chen Ping: "Um, do you guys recognize this fish?"
Upon hearing this, the mermaids began to examine the enormous, stranded creature before them. After a brief discussion, they introduced it to Chen Ping.
“Island Master, judging from its appearance, it is probably a star whale. They are very rare, and no one knows where they live. They are very mysterious beings.”
Chen Ping nodded upon hearing this, and then said to them, "Okay, I understand. By the way, if any of the fish that scattered earlier are spirit fish, please take good care of them."
"Leave this place to me, hehe. If you have nothing else to do, you can stay."
Upon hearing this, all the mermaids nodded and then dived into the sea, with Yuna being dragged back.
Although the island lord said they could stay, he was still the island lord, and some of them still felt a little uncomfortable. Well, except for Yuna, who was muttering something about a wife. What the heck? Isn't your wife Chief Anlula? Besides, the island lord is a man.
Even if she were to call someone "husband," shouldn't she call him something like that? So, to prevent Yuna from disgracing the entire clan, it's safer to go back sooner rather than later.
"Then, Island Master, we'll head back now. If you need anything, please let us know."
Chen Ping nodded upon hearing this, then watched as the mermaids dived into the sea one by one and began swimming towards their home. Mermaids in the water were indeed the most beautiful; they were far more beautiful on land and in the water sphere.
After admiring the mermaids' graceful figures in the sea for a while, and once they had all disappeared from sight, Chen Ping looked at the star whale and immediately activated his Appraisal Technique.

[Identification Introduction: Oh, a star whale inhabiting the Starry Sea. The Starry Sea is a special sea because it is above the clouds and drifts everywhere. The creatures in the Starry Sea basically all control the power of the stars, and the star whale can be said to be one of the overlords of the Starry Sea.]
[Recommendation: Although star whales are one of the overlords of the Starry Sea, these large creatures are actually quite docile. As long as you don't provoke them, they will generally ignore you. The starlight on a star whale's skin is a legendary material, but excess starlight only appears when the starlight is abundant, forming starlight tears. Therefore, it is recommended to keep one...]
The assessment advice followed by a long list of points about star whales' habits. Star whales don't like to swim much; except for hunting time, they mostly rest with their eyes half-closed. So, to keep such a large creature, you only need to provide it with a place to live and plenty of food, and that should be enough.
That's right, its appetite might be a bit big.
Hmm, looking at the star whale that seemed stranded but was actually playing around, you know, this thing can fly. Chen Ping thought for a moment and prepared to start feeding it to see if he could keep this big guy.
There are still more than a dozen dragon beasts in the water prison. I wonder if that's enough?
Chen Ping jumped directly onto the star whale's head and communicated with it. Without a doubt, a creature of this level wouldn't be lacking in intelligence.
Star whales are a legendary race, comparable to dragons. After all, dragons are a race that goes from legendary to mythical, depending on the species.
......
Chen Ping communicated with it directly using his mind: "Hey, big guy, do you want to live here from now on?"
Star Whale: "Huh? Little guy, are you talking to me?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Ping twitched the corner of his mouth. Short? Uh, okay, for you, he is indeed short.
Chen Ping: "That's right, it's me talking to you. Do you want to stay here?"
Star Whale: "Oh, the energy here is plentiful, but food is scarce. If we stay, we'll go hungry, and hunger is a terrible feeling."
Chen Ping: "Well, don't worry about food, I'll find some for you."
After Chen Ping finished speaking, he flew down and then carried a dragon beast out of the death row.
"then!"
Ouch!
The star whale swallowed the dragon beast that Chen Ping threw at it in one gulp.
Chen Ping: "So? How many of these would you need to eat a day to feel full?"
Star Whale: "Hmm, they're quite energy-rich. I think we'll need about a dozen."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ping immediately threw all the dragon beasts in the water prison toward the star whale one by one. In just two minutes, more than ten dragon beasts were swallowed by the star whale.
Chen Ping: "How are you? Are you full?"
Star Whale: "Burp~ I'm a little full. Hmm, so satisfying. I've decided to stay. I'll come back for dinner in ten days."
Chen Ping: "Huh? You can eat for ten days in one meal?"
Star Whale: "Ah, of course! Our race has such big appetites, we would have starved to death long ago if we ate every day."
"Besides, I'm not an adult yet. By the time I'm an adult, my appetite will have increased several times over."
The satisfied star whale took flight and then dived into the Crescent Sea to find a secluded spot to sleep. Before becoming star gods, this was basically their way of life: eat, sleep, and then eat again.
Looking at the star whale diving into the Crescent Sea: "If it only eats once every ten days, it's easy to raise. After all, it can catch at least five dragon beasts every day, which is more than enough."
Chen Ping was very satisfied; it was much easier than he had expected.
Also, Crescent Sea was large enough when it was first created, and after the mermaid clan arrived and Chen Ping authorized them, Crescent Sea expanded considerably. Otherwise, it might have felt a bit crowded if this big guy had moved in.
According to the appraisal advice, the stronger the Star Whale, the better the quality of its starlight, which is at least legendary level. It's conceivable that once the Star Whale grows up, its starlight might enter the ranks of divine level materials.
Chen Ping was very pleased that he had successfully kept the star whale, but it was time to make dinner as it was getting dark.
There's only one dragon beast left; we'll have it for dinner.
Chen Ping hummed the song "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and began happily preparing dinner.
[System: Ding! The Black Market Compass has detected a black market event nearby. Do you wish to use the Black Market Compass?]
Huh? Chen Ping glanced at the system notification. The black market? What more could he want? I'm a tycoon now, I'm loaded. He decisively used the Black Market Compass.
Instantly, the Heart of the Divine Island moved northwest.
