"Come to think of it, the Faceless Jade Sovereign hadn't shown herself for more than half a year." Deng Yuxiang changed the subject.
"Ran Sect's momentum is at its peak. She was probably trying to avoid its sharp edge for now," Lu Ran analyzed.
Deng Yuxiang snorted. "I think she's raising a tiger only to invite disaster. After the battle on the third day of the third month, Ran Sect took over all the Gods and Devils in the northwest, and many disciples in the sect became gods.
Over the past few months, Uncle Lu, Chen Jingjing, Cheng Li, and Cheng Yi also became gods one after another.
People from Yutang's batch have begun to show results as well."
Lu Ran did not respond immediately.
He and Jiang Ruyi had discussed this matter at length.
The meticulous Jiang Xianzi had even offered Lu Ran a perspective: even if the Faceless Jade Sovereign were given a chance to slaughter her way into the human world, she might not crush billions of people to death.
When he first heard this theory, Lu Ran had been deeply taken aback.
Jiang Ruyi, however, gave him an irrefutable reason: after the Faceless Jade Sovereign destroyed the world last time, the Gods and Devils fled.
They embarked on a long road of escape, eventually fleeing into exile here.
If the Faceless Jade Sovereign pulled the rug out from under the cauldron again and shook the foundation of the Gods and Devils' existence, they would flee once more and seek another path of life.
During that process, many things would slip beyond the Faceless Jade Sovereign's control.

From another perspective, the human world was also the prison of the Gods and Devils!
