Fanning the Flames

The Star God and the Night God are incredibly fast.

Almost as soon as I saw that picture, two streaks of light flashed across the Sea of Stars from different directions.

Star God gritted his teeth the whole way, repeatedly refreshing the post page on his Lightbrain screen. Every time he saw the Goddess of Beauty's words, "The moon is mine," Starlight shone even brighter.

Night God didn't read the post; he only sensed a blinding surge of Divine Power coming from the direction of the Moon God Palace.

The aura was extremely close to the moon.

When they arrived, they saw the Sun God squatting on the ground.

The other person was squatting in a corner of the library, with their arms wrapped around their knees.

The golden flames that usually shone so brightly around him were now as dim as a campfire doused with cold water, and he muttered something under his breath.

But to Night God, this scene was nothing more than a background spectacle.

Whether the Sun God was crouching in the corner or slumped in a chair, he didn't spare a single glance. From the moment he stepped into the library, his gaze was fixed on only one direction.

His dearest friend, his moon.

In the eyes of the Star God, however, it was simply that his elder brother was utterly useless.

The Sun God, who usually acts all high and mighty in front of him, is now being humiliated by an outer god and forced to squat in a corner in a state of ecstasy. It's a disgrace to the three gods of the Sun, Moon, and Stars.

The Night God and the Star God both looked over.

The Goddess of Beauty was seen pressing their best friend/brother against a fluffy Flowing Cloud, their posture incredibly intimate.

A hand rested on the Moon God's shoulder, long, slender fingers slightly curled. He bent down and approached the Moon God's face. His dark hair slid down his shoulder, almost intertwining with the Moon God's silver hair that hung down to the clouds. His lips moved, as if he was whispering something in the Moon God's ear.

What are they doing?

Not only did she openly declare "Yue is mine" in the post, but she also dared to take advantage of his older brother right in front of them.

The Star God couldn't stand it.

He was never personally told by Yue that he was her "favorite," so why did this Goddess of Beauty, who appeared out of nowhere, have the right to say that?

Even Night God couldn't stand it.

The starlight was as sharp as a blade, and the darkness surged like a tidal wave.

Two Divine Power tore through the air and shot toward the Goddess of Beauty.

The Goddess of Beauty naturally didn't make a move, as if the two attacks from behind were nothing more than a gentle breeze.

It was the Moon God who made the move.

He straightened up from the Flowing Clouds and raised one hand.

A soft, silvery-white halo rippled from his palm, spreading like moonlight, enveloping both the purple glow and the darkness within it.

The attack vanished without a trace upon touching that silvery-white surface, melting away like ice and snow.

The Moon God withdrew her hand, looked at the two figures at the door, and spoke in a clear, melodious voice:

"Little brother, Ye, stop fooling around."

This is his library; he'd be heartbroken if it got damaged.

The moment that silvery-white light appeared, the Star God and the Night God withdrew their attacks.

They can fight anyone, but not him.

But their expressions showed an even greater sense of devastation than before.

The reason why the Goddess of Beauty didn't make a move was, of course, because he did it on purpose.

Even if he manages to block it himself, what difference does it make?

At most, it will be a closely contested battle; after it's over, things will go back to normal.

But when Old Self Moon God took action, the effect was completely different.

The Goddess of Beauty curved her lips into a smile, leaned closer to the Moon God, rested her chin on the Moon God's shoulder, and looked over the Moon God's shoulder with a smile at the two figures frozen in place at the doorway.

He could almost hear the sound of those two hearts shattering into pieces.

It was truly crisp and melodious.

"Brother, do you like him that much?"

Star God felt a strong sense of crisis at this moment, a feeling completely different from when he first discovered that Night God was clinging to his brother.

Although Night God is annoying, at least he's honest, clumsy with words, doesn't fight or compete, and just silently follows behind his brother.

Like a dark shadow that you can't shake off.

But this Goddess of Beauty, whom I've only known for a short time, is already hugging, cuddling, and lying on my lap, and even dares to post on the entire Star Network to declare her ownership.

The Star God subconsciously glanced at the Night God beside him.

That face, which was already expressionless, was now so dark it seemed to drip ink.

Dark energy surged around him.

Moreover, this Goddess of Beauty is too cunning.

He didn't make a move just now because he knew his brother would take the hit for him.

This is my library.

The Moon God tossed the Goddess of Beauty aside, then raised her hand, pointed towards the door, and said:

"If you want to fight, go outside and fight."

He finally understood. Even he himself couldn't stand such a clingy guy. He would lie on her lap, hug her waist, whisper in her ear, and he was also full of little schemes.

Did he think he was in the middle of a palace intrigue?

The Goddess of Beauty was thrown onto the Flowing Clouds, and she was completely enveloped in the cloud wisps.

He blinked, then blinked again, clearly still not recovered from the shock of being thrown out by Old Self himself.

Old Self, don't you love me anymore?

The Moon God returned his gaze.

Old I, you'd better shut up.

The Goddess of Beauty covered her face and wept, her slender fingers lightly resting on her forehead.

His voice was mournful. "Yue, how could you become so heartless? We used to be inseparable, each other's presence. We were so close back then... and now you're doing this to me for their sake!"

As soon as these words, which sparked endless imagination, were uttered, the Star God's pupils contracted sharply, and the Night God almost lost control of himself. Even the Sun God, who was still in a daze in the corner, suddenly stood up, and golden flames shot up three feet high, almost reaching the ceiling of the library.

"What?" The Sun God's voice suddenly rose.

Having been Gods for so long, in such a long divine life, what doesn't he know?

This kind of awkward, ambiguous, and suggestive wording.

This caused a series of images that needed to be completely pixelated to flash uncontrollably through the mind of the Sun God.

Not only him, but the Star God and the Night God also thought of it.

"OK."

The Star God, enraged, laughed instead.

He raised his hand, and countless stars in the sky lit up in response, with the starlight of the entire Sea of Stars converging towards the Moon God Palace.

"I've long heard that the Goddess of Beauty possesses unparalleled beauty, but also unfathomable Divine Power. Today, I'll come and learn from her."

With a wave of her sleeve, the Moon God unleashed a silvery radiance that swept across the entire library like a tidal wave. When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves standing in the vast starry field Moon God Palace.

The Moon God withdrew her hand and said, "If you want to fight, then fight here."

The Goddess of Beauty, sitting atop Flowing Cloud, showed no fear whatsoever. She crossed her legs, rested her chin on one hand, and looked at the Moon God with a beaming smile.

The sunlight fell on Hoshino's excessively handsome face, making his eyes appear even more shimmering.

"Moon, if I win, will you give me a kiss?"

The Moon God, admiring the Goddess of Beauty who was still stirring things up, replied, "If you want a kiss, go find your bunch of suitors. They'd probably be more than happy to oblige."

The moment suitors were mentioned, the Goddess of Beauty's enthusiastic face instantly fell.

He waved his hand listlessly.

"Not interested."

"Do you need my help?" a voice rang out beside the Goddess of Beauty.

The Evil God had somehow appeared beside the Flowing Clouds, and at this moment he was calmly scanning the three Deities opposite him who were poised to attack.

He kept a close eye on matters concerning the Goddess of Beauty.

"Evil, it's you."

The Goddess of Beauty tilted her head and glanced at him, a smile curving her lips.

"What, afraid you can't beat me, so you brought backup?"

The Sun God snorted coldly, strode to stand beside the Star God, and golden flames condensed into a burning Long Sword in his palm.

He stood side by side with the Star God, and two beams of Divine Power, one golden and one purple, shot into the sky.
