Chapter 81 Destruction, Life, and the Nine-Colored Goddess
Clouds and mist, all clouds and mist.
Golden, ethereal clouds surged, and the air was filled with a rich variety of elements that rippled in a wondrous way, radiating a soft halo that was both illusory and strangely captivatingly substantial.
In the distance, faintly visible, seemed to be a majestic palace, appearing dreamlike and ethereal under the soft glow of the light, yet possessing a breathtaking realism.
Two figures slowly emerged from the clouds.
"Ah Zi, are you still troubled by Shura's matter? Doesn't it feel better to go for a walk?"
The speaker was a woman in a light green dress. Her smile was gentle, and although she wasn't exceptionally beautiful, she possessed a dignified and serene air, and her every move seemed to shimmer with a golden light. That vibrant energy was unforgettable.
"After all these years, you're still the only one who can't get enough of looking at me."
The man she called Azi spoke in a cold, hard tone, yet naturally took her hand. He was completely shrouded in a cloak, making him difficult to see clearly, except for the occasional flashes of deep purple on his face. It was hard to imagine that such a fleeting beauty, a quality of instantaneous life and death, could be emanated from a living being.
"Shura has gone too far this time. When he first arrived in the God Realm, he repeatedly broke the rules due to personal feelings. The two great god kings, Good and Evil, said that he was a newcomer, so I tolerated it. But now that he has begun to take charge of the overall situation in the Upper God Realm, he is still acting so recklessly."
"It's one thing to indulge his daughter's divine nature and send her to the mortal realm. On the one hand, he says he wants to strictly control the succession of the divine positions, while on the other hand, he sends two beast souls with human bodies that are not qualified to be sent to the mortal realm with the divine essence, calling it a divine test. In the end, the task of the divine test is to protect his daughter and help her grow up safely?"
That's utterly absurd!
The man sneered coldly, and as his emotions changed, the cloud turned purple at an alarming speed. The soft halo seemed to be startled and vanished into nothingness in a tremor.
"Alas, humans are always like this. The two god-kings, good and evil, would rather hand over control of the divine realm to a new god than give it to you. Why bother with such a divine realm? If he were still here—" The woman in the green dress sighed softly.
"Don't mention him. Even if it happened again, I would still make the same choice." The man seemed to have thought of something and calmed down, but his voice became colder.
Seeing the woman visibly dejected, the man's attitude finally softened:
"Besides, aren't we already searching for a suitable successor? But as long as I remain an enforcer of the divine realm, I absolutely cannot stand by and watch the rules of the divine realm be broken."
"Alright~, the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Mirror is open again? It's rare that we have nothing to do today, Azi, let's go take a look together."
The woman in the green dress responded gently, and then, as if sensing something, made a suggestion in a soft voice.
"The Mysterious Mirror of Cupid?"
A purple light flashed within the man's cloak. He instinctively wanted to refuse, but then seemed to remember something and asked with interest, "I remember it was reflected in Douluo Continent back then, right? The hometown of Shura."
The woman in the green dress nodded, seemingly puzzled as to why her husband, who had such low curiosity, had suddenly changed his gender.
"Then we can go and take a look." His tone rose slightly.
With a flash of silver light, the two people, or rather, the two gods, vanished from their spot in an instant.
"Wow, I thought that Soul King who was not even fifteen years old was already an unparalleled genius, but how come there's another Soul King who's only thirteen years old? He's even more incredible than that old guy. The Soul Masters on Douluo Star are getting stronger with each generation. Luckily, we were born early and benefited from Third Brother's influence, otherwise we really wouldn't be able to compete with these younger generations."
At the summit of Yunshan Mountain, Ning Rongrong looked at the boy in the gold and silver bubbles in the mirror, patted her chest and sighed, completely unaware of the two figures that had quietly appeared behind her.
"Hehe, this position Third Brother arranged is really good, otherwise the God Realm would be too boring. This little boy is so handsome, it's a pity he's from the Sun Moon Continent. Let me have some fun with you before deciding whether to tell Third Brother."
She gave a wicked, witch-like smile, cleared her throat, and was about to speak in a flat tone when the man's cold words made her tremble with fear.
"Nine-Colored Goddess, is this how you manage the Mysterious Heavenly Mirror?"
Why him of all people to die?
She turned around awkwardly, and although she was very unwilling, she still obediently bowed in greeting.
"The Nine-Colored Goddess pays homage to the God of Destruction and the God of Life."
Purple light flickered within the God of Destruction's cloak, and an endless, profound aura of terror emanated from it. Ning Rongrong's body was enveloped in nine-colored divine light, which protected her, but it was instantly suppressed back into her body, causing her to collapse to the ground, her face pale.
Upon seeing this, the God of Life gently shook the hand of the God of Destruction, and azure light descended, neutralizing the God of Destruction's oppressive aura. Ning Rongrong's complexion improved considerably.
"This is a one-time exception, and there will be no next time. You should have learned the rules of the divine realm. Don't think that just because you are one of the Asuras, I won't dare to touch you. Your profound aura was released and then withdrawn. The attitude of the God of Destruction eventually softened under the persuasion of the God of Life."
"The Nine-Colored Goddess respectfully follows the teachings of the enforcers."
Ning Rongrong got up in a disheveled state, inwardly grumbling, but outwardly showing no sign of it. Facing this God of Destruction, who acted rigidly and enforced the divine realm's rules with near-obsessive zeal, she dared not defy him in the slightest.
Legend has it that this person once personally stripped away the divine status and annihilated the soul of a powerful first-level god who violated the rules of the divine realm. Even Third Brother suffered greatly at her hands, let alone a mere second-level god like her.
"Alright, Nine-Colored Goddess, from now on, just act impartially," the Goddess of Life smoothed things over. "Continue to preside over the Trial of Love and Destiny. My husband and I are just passing by."
She turned to the god of destruction, only to find that her husband's gaze was completely absorbed in the image in the mirror.
Do you have a lover?
The same calm voice rang out, but Kong Tianxu, who was inside the gold and silver bubbles, noticed that the voice was slightly more rapid and seemed to have more emotional fluctuations than before.
What changes have occurred in the realm of gods?
He thought for a moment, then tentatively began to speak:
"I'm only thirteen years old this year."
The calm voice was clearly chuckled at by him. Ning Rongrong almost subconsciously condensed a whip of divine power, but the gaze that seemed to be piercing towards her suddenly dissipated.
"Do you have a lover? If you don't answer after being asked three times, the punishment is death."
Something has changed! Kong Tianxu's gaze sharpened.
"no."
But he still needs to observe further.
"Do you have someone you like?" The calm voice rang out again.
Kong Tianxu's Adam's apple bobbed. He hadn't quite mastered his balancing act yet, but he still answered without hesitation, "Cain."
"And—Xu Tianzhen."
The calm voice paused for a moment, as if digesting something. Then, Cain and Xu Tianzhen's bubbles burst, and their bodies floated up.
Do you have a partner?
A calm voice rang in their ears simultaneously, as did Kong Tianxu's, and both women shook their heads.
Do you have someone you like?
Kong Tianxu.
Cain and Xu Tianzhen exchanged a glance and spoke in unison.
He said he likes both of you. Even so, do you still like him?
"Of course," Cain said nonchalantly.
Sure enough... Xu Tianzhen bit her lower lip lightly, then nodded.
"You'd be willing to die for him?" The voice pressed on more urgently, as if trying to confirm something.
The answer received remained unchanged.
The voice remained silent for a moment, then turned to Kong Tianxu.
"You heard it all. You're all alone, yet you've taken two hearts with you. Ask your heart, who would you choose?"
"They are all my wings, and I will not give up any of them. Only children make choices; I want them all." Kong Tianxu said without changing his expression.
Cain's lips curled slightly; she had been mentally prepared for this. Xu Tianzhen's expression was complex and somewhat strange, clearly not expecting Kong Tianxu to answer so directly.
The God of Life chuckled softly, covering his face. Ning Rongrong's red lips parted slightly. The God of Destruction, his face still shrouded in his cloak, said with a hint of disdain:
"You're so shameless."
