The God of Light said nonchalantly, “The commotion Hell caused in the deep sea was too loud, so I came to check on the situation.”
Ning Busan instantly felt an immense amount of pressure.
Was he here to demand answers?
The demons only wanted to expand Hell's territory while enjoying a hearty battle!
What bad intentions could demons possibly have?
The God of Light did not seem to have any intention of holding him accountable. He merely stared at the Mage Association building that Ning Busan had replicated, his thoughts unknown.
Ning Busan tucked his hands into his sleeves, his eyes darting around as he said tentatively, “You just said that without the authority of creation, it is impossible to create life. Then, do you know where the authority of creation is?”
The God of Light said, “With me.”
Ning Busan did not expect him to be so candid, not even bothering to pretend.
Since that was the case, Ning Busan felt he should also be a bit more candid, directly stating his request: “Can you give it to me?”
Since the God of Light still thought he knew nothing and they hadn't openly fallen out yet, then Ning Busan would...
Just brazenly ask for it!
The God of Light fell silent for a moment before saying, “You cannot create life as you are now. Try creating rules first. When the time comes, I will give you the authority of creation.”
Ning Busan inwardly grumbled about the old fox, but on the outside, he said with a beaming smile, “It's your thing, so you have the final say.”
“You old geezer, you're really good at making empty promises!”
The God of Light said, “I look forward to the day you return to Heaven.”
Ning Busan said dryly, “I look forward to it too.”
Like hell I am!
He would absolutely not touch the Angel card!
Even if he had to, he would leave it for the very end!
The God of Light said indifferently, “Since you have obtained the Sea God's power, you should shoulder your due responsibilities.”
Ning Busan nodded. “I understand.”
The God of Light had come as lightly as a breeze, and he left just as quietly.
The moment he left the deep-blue space, an ethereal sound echoed in Ning Busan's ears. It was the weeping prayers of countless sea monsters, filled with endless sorrow and despair.
After possessing the godhead, the entire deep sea was within Ning Busan's control.
He saw the xenos rampaging in the deep sea, the homes of the sea monsters under attack, and their people being slaughtered.
A flash of anger crossed Ning Busan's eyes, and a low song slowly welled up from his throat.
As the song rang out, the seawater began to tremble. The song was no ordinary sound; it was infused with divine power, penetrating layers of water to reach every corner of the deep sea.
There was a legend in the deep sea that when the Sea God was on the throne, He could suppress all the xenos in the ocean by Himself.
This was not just a legend; it was a fact.
The sea monsters softly joined in with the Sea God's song, their voices intertwining with the Sea God's melody to create a powerful resonance.
The song spread out like ripples, and the seawater churned, forming countless massive waterspouts that swept the xenos in and tore them to shreds.
It was not until all the xenos were annihilated that the seawater returned to tranquility.
Ning Busan opened his eyes, his gaze deep and his voice tinged with a touch of majesty:
“I have answered your prayers. The xenos have been suppressed, and order will be restored. From this day forth, the deep sea shall once again receive my protection.”
The sea monsters all across the deep sea heard Ning Busan's voice. They prostrated themselves on the ground, their eyes filled with unspeakable awe and ecstasy.
The Sea God had returned!
The Sea God had truly returned!
Streams of the power of faith converged from all directions, pouring into Ning Busan's body.
Ning Busan: How satisfying~
Beelzebub, disguised as a sea monster, suddenly popped up and shouted, “My King! The demons have all returned to Hell!”
Ning Busan: “No wonder I didn't see a single trace of a demon in the deep sea.”
Beelzebub said with a bitter face, “With the God of Light arriving in person, let alone the other low-level demons, even I couldn't wait to flee immediately.”
If they took even a single blow from the God of Light, they would end up half-dead if not completely obliterated.
Ning Busan indicated his understanding.
When the God of Light had appeared in that deep-blue space, he had also been startled.
Ning Busan asked, “Then why didn't you run?”
Beelzebub raised his head and said, “My King! You know that I am fiercely loyal to you!”
“Since you hadn't come out of the Temple of Atlantis yet, how could I flee on my own?”
Ning Busan patted his shoulder, deeply moved. “Good brother!”
Beelzebub blinked guiltily.
Alright, he admitted that his words just now were highly exaggerated.
Just as the demon army was showing off its might and running amok in the deep sea, the God of Light descended, accompanied by warm, pure holy light.
A mere half-second later, all the demons began to flee in panic.
Just as Beelzebub summoned the Gates of Hell, he was shoved aside by Mammon's backside.
His Gates of Hell had been hijacked by Mammon!
Mammon was truly a demon full of wicked schemes!
Once he returned to Hell, he would definitely get his revenge!
“Oh right, my King!” Beelzebub suddenly remembered something. “I saw the God of Light restore the collapsed black hole!”
Ning Busan's expression turned serious as he went to the black hole to check the situation.
With Siren's memories, Ning Busan finally knew what the black hole actually was.
The operation of the black hole relied on the power of the godhead as support. Whenever xenos descended, the black hole would appear to strangle and kill them all.
At that time, Siren already knew that the God of Light had targeted him and had foreseen his own end.
Fearing that there would be no one to protect the deep sea after his fall, he stripped away his godhead and stored it in Atlantis.
To prevent any sea monsters from coveting the godhead, Siren sent a sea turtle he trusted to guard Atlantis.
However, the gatekeeper turtle he had carefully selected betrayed him.
Because the sea turtle attempted to refine the godhead, the black hole became unstable, unable to strangle the xenos and only capable of imprisoning them, ultimately resulting in its collapse.
Now, here was the problem.
There was not a single fragment of memory regarding the Lock of Causality in Siren's memories.
If the Lock of Causality was not Siren's divine artifact, then who had used it to lock Atlantis?
Ning Busan swam to the front of the black hole, which had already been restored by the God of Light.
And the xenos that had previously escaped from the black hole had also been dealt with by Ning Busan.
Beelzebub said in confusion, “The sea monsters believe in the Sea God. Even if the God of Light helped the deep sea, the sea monsters wouldn't change their faith because of it.”
“Why did the God of Light help the deep sea restore the black hole?”
Ning Busan said, “Because God loves the world.”
Beelzebub: “...”
What a lame joke.
Ning Busan also felt that the joke was pretty lame.
“God loves the world,” indeed. Since when were there so many selfless gods?
After Hell caused a commotion in the deep sea, the God of Light came to check on the situation, conveniently repaired the collapsed black hole, and then dropped by the Sea God's godhead space to meet him.
Would the God of Light meddle in other people's business if there was nothing to gain?
On the contrary, Ning Busan felt that all of the God of Light's movements seemed as though he was searching for something.
Ning Busan asked Beelzebub, “Did Mammon take Lilian back to Hell?”
Beelzebub said through gritted teeth, “Yes!”
And he even used his Gates of Hell!
Ning Busan breathed a sigh of relief.
The Lock of Causality was in Lilian's hands. Going to Hell to avoid the God of Light's gaze might not be a bad thing.
Ning Busan thought of something and asked skeptically, “Is there a place in Hell suitable for deep-sea sea monsters to live?”
Beelzebub froze, racking his brain for a long time before speaking, “Theoretically speaking... there shouldn't be.”
Ning Busan: “...”
He believed Lilian would surely turn misfortune into a blessing.
...
Within the Divine Realm.
The God of Light fell into deep thought.
Ten thousand years ago, he did not obtain the Lock of Causality.
Ten thousand years later, he still had not obtained the Lock of Causality.
A person of no fate and no destiny was supposed to be the sacrifice to open the Lock of Causality, yet the Lock of Causality had ended up in the hands of a person of no fate and no destiny.
As a result, now even he could not pry into the whereabouts of the Lock of Causality.
Destiny was truly a wondrous thing.
Anything that had to do with destiny could cause him to suffer setbacks time and time again.
