The Water God Comes to Collect a Debt

The Water God went to collect a debt from the God of Lies.

During this period, the Sea God and two new companions, the God of Poverty and the God of Misfortune, came into play.

The Water God, having become so engrossed in the Sea God Palace, almost forgot the promise the God of Lies had made to him.

But this morning, he suddenly remembered.

The other party had clearly promised that as long as he brought the Moon God to the Asura God's Temple, the God of Lies would bring the Goddess of Beauty to him. He had waited for so long, and not only had he not seen the Goddess of Beauty, he hadn't even seen the other party's shadow.

Therefore, today the Water God deliberately chose the only route from the Lies God's Temple to the Asura God's Temple.

He waited there early, ready to block the God of Lies.

If he can't stop the Goddess of Beauty who roams all over the Divine Realm, surely he can stop the God of Lies who has a fixed route?

And sure enough, the blockage was a perfect one.

The God of Lies halted, a cold glint flashing in his grey eyes. "Water God, the Divine Realm is in chaos, with constant warfare between the righteous and Evil Gods. You've come alone to stop me; do you wish to perish?"

At this time of year, the Divine Realm is filled with the glint of swords and the clash of spears.

Why did they choose this moment to come knocking? Were they trying to ambush and kill him? If so, then he didn't need to be polite.

The fingertips of the God of Lies have secretly gathered a wisp of Divine Power.

But no sooner had he finished speaking than the Water God denied it with a bewildered expression:

"What are you talking about? What fall? I came here today to ask you about that promise you made to me last time. When are you going to fulfill it?"

He put his hands on his hips, tilted his chin up, and said confidently:

"If you don't give me an explanation for this, I'll pester you to death. I'll never leave your side, I'll follow you wherever you go."

The Killing Intent in the God of Lies' eyes instantly transformed into a complex expression that seemed to say, "Are you an idiot?" He stared at the Water God for several breaths, almost thinking he had misheard.

Isn't his silence during this period clear enough?

Any normal god, after being fooled for so long, should have realized what was going on long ago.

But he clearly underestimated the Water God.

This Water God seemed to be born without that certain quality; he only recognized written words and only listened to face-to-face answers.

The God of Lies felt that even fighting with the other party was beneath his dignity.

"Where is the Goddess of Beauty? I must see Goddess of Beauty today, otherwise, I'm starting to worry about myself."

The Water God spoke with a hint of seriousness in his voice.

Human hearts are biased, and so is the heart of God.

He thought he would remember that stunning first glance forever.

But looking back now, that fleeting moment of infatuation seems insignificant compared to the small, warm moments of his life now...

It's not that important anymore.

"Worried about yourself?" The God of Lies was taken aback at first, but then quickly understood, a smile playing on his lips. "Water God, I heard you've been pursuing the Goddess of Beauty for hundreds of thousands of years. Why have you suddenly stopped? Could it be because of... the Sea God?"

The Water God's face turned pale instantly, as if he had been caught off guard and struck at something deeply hidden.

"How... how did you know... what are you saying?"

His voice was weak, but then he suddenly straightened his back, his fierce expression masking his inner weakness.

"Are you spying on me?!"

The God of Lies smiled but remained silent.

The Water God's thoughts are always the easiest to guess.

After all, in the other party's world, there are only a few gods.

And his teacher recently... cough cough, a bit... well, he almost couldn't handle it himself.

This Water God is definitely... no good either.

The God of Lies felt a surge of emotion upon recalling his previous meeting with the Sea God.

But he didn't know that Lao Liu was lurking in the shadows.

The God of Desire lurked in the shadows, taking in the entire scene, a sinister smile slowly creeping onto his lips.

Okay, he caught you.

This God of Lies is definitely not right.

Judging from how long he and the Water God have been secretly meeting, the two gods huddled together whispering to each other, what good things could they possibly be discussing?

He immediately turned around and glared indignantly at the Asura God beside him:

"Asura God, you see that now. I told you this God of Lies was untrustworthy. He's actually having a secret meeting with Righteous God! And at such a crucial time."

The God of Desire was overjoyed.

This time, he witnessed it firsthand with Asura God.

Even if the God of Lies is innocent, so what?

If mud falls into your crotch, even if it's not poop, it still looks like poop.

He wanted to see if the Asura God, who abhorred betrayal the most, would still be able to stay by his side after witnessing this scene. The more he thought about it, the more smug he became, waiting to see how the Asura God would deal with that eyesore on the spot.

The Asura God crossed his arms, his eyes coldly fixed on the God of Desire, and said, "Is this what you wanted This Venerable to see?"

The God of Desire felt a jolt in his heart, and a chill inexplicably ran down his spine.

That look, that tone of voice—why were they completely different from what he had expected?

This feeling...

Why does it look so much like the Asura God is about to slap him?

But he clearly presented irrefutable evidence.

The God of Lies and the Water God huddled together, talking furtively and intimately; it looked like they were colluding with a foreign enemy.

What did he do wrong?

"This Venerable 'm not deaf yet," the Asura God added coldly, his voice already devoid of patience. "I heard everything This Venerable were saying. One was collecting a debt, the other was making a stupid mistake. Is this trivial matter worth you sneaking around and dragging This Venerable to see?"

The God of Desire opened his mouth.

He forgot that the Asura God's divine Divine Power was stronger than his own; the other party should be able to hear him.

"Don't ask This Venerable to spy on you again."

The Asura God raised his hand, and a slap came hurtling down, sending the God of Desire flying.

"Furthermore, I have other matters to This Venerable today."

He disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already standing in the Sea God Palace.

The Asura God thrust his Spear into the ground, his killing intent radiating from him.

"What do you want with This Venerable? Which bastard has offended you this time?"

"Although it's a bit sensitive to take action now, This Venerable don't care. I'll fight if I want to."

"Also, keep a close eye on your Water God, don't let it wander off, lest it suddenly disappear one day."

The Sea God didn't answer immediately, but simply gestured for the god to sit. Only after the Asura God sat down with a cold expression did he take out a small box from his sleeve and push it in front of the other.

"Open it."

Seeing his mysterious demeanor, the Asura God became unusually interested.

He reached out and took it, then opened the box.

But after just one glance, his face darkened, and his Spear even hummed.

"What do you mean? Are you trying to make fun of This Venerable?"

The Asura God raised his head, a murderous aura suddenly surging in his red eyes.

Sea God shook his head and chuckled, "Do you think I'm joking?"

He reached up and took off the Red Thread from his wrist.

"I've been thinking about how to maximize the benefits of this Red Thread. After much thought, it seems like this is the only way."
