"You human who knows no reverence, how dare you speak of slaughtering Gods? Look at this now—you've even dragged my lord into this mess!"
Inside Susanoo's lavish main hall, a guard beside Liuyun complained at the utterly calm-faced man.
Liuyun ignored him outright. Instead, he listened with great interest to the siblings arguing outside... inwardly marveling that even quarrels among Gods were no different from those of ordinary mortals...
Amaterasu clearly could not outargue Susanoo, who was always causing trouble. Even with Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto on her side, the two great Gods were still no match for Susanoo's shameless, unreasonable pestering...
Thus, the Gods began stepping in to mediate, hoping to put an end to this meaningless dispute.
Yet where there were Gods trying to break up a fight, there were also Gods taking sides. Some began using the opportunity to criticize Susanoo for his misdeeds.
For instance, Ninigi-no-Mikoto, who was also in the lower realm. As Amaterasu Omikami's biological grandson, he naturally spoke for his own grandmother, which earned Susanoo's displeasure and resentment.
The argument nearly spiraled beyond control. Both sides were even prepared to reignite the war among the Gods. In the end, even their divine father, Izanagi, was alerted and appeared:
"Why have you rashly stirred up killing intent?"
The moment Izanagi appeared, he questioned his unfilial son.
At that moment, the Gods filling the skies only knew that the killing intent had originated from the imperial palace of Izumo Country. They did not know that the one who had unleashed it was not Susanoo, but a human...
Without even giving it much thought, the Gods pointed their spears at Susanoo. In their eyes, Susanoo was already a notorious figure with a long record of misdeeds...
Perhaps it was precisely because every God regarded Susanoo as an evil God
