Meeting the Death God
The flower, Green Crabapple, is extremely rare even in the Divine Realm, let alone in the Abyss where there is not a ray of sunlight.
You could say it's not picky, since it doesn't need sunlight and can grow even in the Abyss; but you could also say it's delicate and picky, since this kind of flower is extremely rare in the Divine Realm. There might be a patch of it in the flower gardens of the Spring God and the Flower God, but it's naturally extremely rare elsewhere.
But none of those compare to the abundance of this grove of Green Crabapple Forest before us.
But none of those can compare to the abundance of green crabapple trees in this grove of green crabapple trees before us.
These Green Crabapple are blooming beautifully, one after another, stretching as far as the eye can see, creating what appears to be a small, blue-green Sea of Flowers.
The flower centers still emitted a faint light; in this sunless place of the Abyss, this Green Crabapple Forest was like a small patch of light left behind by someone.
In the center of this grove of Green Crabapple Forest, Death God was crouching down, holding a small shovel in his hand, carefully adding soil to a Green Crabapple tree.
This seems incredibly unbelievable to an omnipotent Gods.
Gods possess Divine Power and are virtually omnipotent; they don't need to do many things themselves.
Their personal involvement demonstrates how much they value something.
Death God was so focused that he didn't even notice when a god flew into his sensing range.
That's right, this is what the God of Wealth and the God of Luck looked like when they first met the Death God.
It was quite memorable.
Before this, none of them had imagined that the mighty Death God would actually enjoy growing flowers.
That's absolutely outrageous.
Death God actually likes this flower that looks so full of life.
They always assumed the other would like the Manjusaka.
After all, the other party would bloom a flower every few steps, blooming wherever they went, leaving a trail of blood red wherever they stepped.
If this is considered dislike, then it's simply unacceptable.
But ironically, he planted Green Crabapple.
Although the God of Wealth and the God of Luck now understand why the other person likes them.
After all, their minds now contain not only their own memories, but also the memories of the original Wuma Xiu.
However, at that time, they had no idea that the Green Crabapple was a flower given by the Spring God to the God of Death God.
No, to be more precise, it should be the reward that Death God demanded from Spring God.
It could be said that the more Green Crabapple Forest there is, the more favors the Spring God of Spring owed the God of Death God.
And in return for this favor, Death God only asked for a single Green Crabapple.
This was perhaps a relief for the other gods.
After all, a favor from the Death God is not something that can be easily repaid.
But in reality, the Spring God could not get past it.
He believed that although the Green Crabapple he planted were beautiful, they were not worth the price at all.
He owed Death God so much, yet the other party only asked for one flower each time, which made him feel uneasy.
So sometimes he would repay this favor in another way.
He delivers other things, helps with other tasks, and makes a trip to the Death God every now and then.
Of course, Death God would be especially pleased at this time.
However, given the other person's personality at that time, it was impossible for them to show it on their face; they would only be secretly happy inside.
At this point, Death God was still unaware that he would become a nobody in the future.
Today, although he did not go in person, he still spared a small portion of his time, allowing the other party to go to the Divine Realm to continue the work in his place.
Yes, even at this time, Death God has not given up its work.
As for why it was only a small portion?
Death God rubbed his left cheek; it was slightly swollen.
Firstly, if a large portion were separated, then it wouldn't be this person standing here now.
He was the one who was sent out.
Secondly, if they split it in half, they will start fighting.
We're all half- Death Gods, so why can you stay here to take care of Chun's Green Crabapple while I have to go work in the Divine Realm?
Therefore, his best option is to set aside a small portion and force the other person to work. However, the other person will inevitably complain, so at this point, he's being incredibly ruthless, even going so far as to beat himself up.
After Death God had looked over all of Green Crabapple, he straightened up, looked at everything in front of him, and felt a strong sense of presence.
If he could, he wished he could do this every day.
But he suppressed the thought as soon as it came to mind.
What am I thinking? How could I possibly be so lazy?
--Work! I need to work!!
At that moment, a delicate fragrance drifted into Death God's nostrils.
That taste was something he could never forget.
Death God looked down at the best-blooming Green Crabapple tree at his feet; its petals were slender, slightly curled inward, and had a very pale bluish-green hue.
A breeze swept through, carrying with it a faint, sweet fragrance.
This seems... not bad?
Death God felt that his willpower was being severely challenged.
He started to think again: it might not be a bad idea.
But as soon as this thought crossed his mind, Death God shook his head frantically.
No, I can't be this lazy!
The wind brought Death God the fragrance of Green Crabapple, but also a strange scent. He suddenly turned his head to look to the side, and when he saw that figure, he was somewhat surprised.
"Your God of Fortune, haven't you already lost it?"
Death God is often in the Divine Realm; in fact, he spends more time there than in the Abyss Divine Realm.
He naturally knew about the God of Fortune.
The other party has practically disappeared in a sense, so what's going on here?
Could it be that the God of Luck and the God of Wealth have merged into one?
The God of Fortune stood at the edge of the Sea of Flowers, the Four-Leaf Clover Crystal Chain on his wrist gleaming warmly in the darkness.
"What, you really want me to be gone?"
Death God crouched down again, looking at another Green Crabapple tree:
"It's not a matter of whether I want it or not, I'm just a little surprised. After all, it was you who insisted on doing it back then."
You should know your own personality well.
It was indeed the God of Fortune's own decision to split himself from one god into two. He was supposed to disappear after making that decision, but his reappearance here is quite unlike his usual self.
"I know my own personality, but this was a joint decision."
To Death God, the other person's words sounded full of contradictions.
"Alright, I'll pretend I didn't see you sneaking into the Abyss. Now leave as soon as possible. If the Abyss discovers you, it might just turn you into its child."
People always think that what's in someone else's bowl tastes better than what's in their own.
The Abyss shared the same idea.
However, a long, long time ago, the Abyss and the Divine Realm had a treaty of non-aggression.
Unless there are special circumstances, such as the Death God, they will not normally harm the other party.
However, if a god voluntarily breaks away from the other party and enters its own territory, that's a different story.
At the very least, the Abyss won't let this piece of meat, which has been delivered into its mouth, go uneaten.
