Sun Goddess

"Handsome, mind if we share a table?"

The Black Silk Beauty walked over with a dazzling smile. She looked incredibly charming, and her features were exquisitely delicate.

"No."

Xu Yi said nothing. Qi Lin spoke first, looking at the Black Silk Beauty with hostility in her eyes.

The Black Silk Beauty glanced at Qi Lin, surprise flashing through her eyes. She blurted out, "Good grief, what luck. I actually ran into a prospective Super Warrior with a God River Gene."

The Black Silk Beauty was none other than Sun Goddess Di Lena, who had secretly come to Earth for fun.

Di Lena was the Lieyang Chief God, of noble status. But because she was so young, she was, in a sense, really just the mascot of the Lieyang Civilization.

Di Lena had long yearned for Earth. This planet was young and full of vitality, unlike Lieyang, whose style had remained unchanged for tens of thousands of years. She had long grown sick of it, and the people there were far too rigid, always spouting lofty principles.

As the Lieyang Chief God, Di Lena had spotted the Super Gene within Qi Lin at a glance.

It simply had not been activated yet, so she could not tell what type of gene it was. Still, Qi Lin was definitely a Super Warrior.

If ordinary people heard that, they would probably find it strange, dismissing it as nonsense and not taking it seriously.

"What Super Warrior?" Qi Lin frowned. Her instincts as a police officer told her that this seemed far from ordinary.

At first, Xu Yi had only thought the girl in black silk was an exceptionally beautiful woman, the rare sort.

But upon hearing that, he examined her more carefully and discovered that Di Lena did not seem to be normal. A fairly potent, scorching energy was contained within her.

Could it be...? Xu Yi guessed.

After all, there were only a few famous and beautiful girls at the Super God Academy. By eliminating them one by one, he could still arrive at the right answer.

Interesting. Sun Goddess Di Lena. Xu Yi remained outwardly calm.

"Ahem. Although this is somewhat against the rules, I still have to say it: a Super Warrior is a super powerful warrior," Di Lena said seriously.

"..." Qi Lin.

"Heh." Xu Yi.

Di Lena's attendant and best friend, Wu Zhao, wore an expression as if she were looking at an idiot, though that was admittedly rather disrespectful toward her own chief god.

"Share a table with us. I'll explain it properly," Di Lena said.

"No thanks. I'm afraid it'll lower my IQ," Qi Lin said.

"Don't be like that, beautiful miss. Look, there aren't any seats left around here. On this whole street, this place has the most authentic flavor," Di Lena said.

Qi Lin was kindhearted after all. Her expression softened, and she finally nodded.

Di Lena and Wu Zhao sat down. Wu Zhao was very polite, clasping her hands in greeting toward Xu Yi and Qi Lin.

Di Lena, meanwhile, asked, "Is this handsome guy your boyfriend?"

"No," Qi Lin said.

"What a pity. Such a handsome guy, and he's not your boyfriend." Di Lena shook her head.

"You want him? Have him," Qi Lin said.

"No, no, not necessary," Di Lena said.

Xu Yi was indeed extremely good-looking, but she was still a chief god. The man who became hers would at least have to conquer her. He did not need to defeat her in strength, but he could not be too far below her either.

After all, in Di Lena's eyes at the moment, Xu Yi was just an ordinary person.

"Heh, you're actually being picky now," Qi Lin mocked.

"??"

Di Lena did not react at first, then realized she had been teased.

"Hey, hey, I'm a goddess, all right? Don't I deserve some dignity?" Di Lena said, raising her voice slightly.

"Oh." Qi Lin replied blandly.

"Let's talk about the Super Warrior thing instead." Qi Lin instinctively felt that Di Lena's earlier words were unusual.

Especially with that Chrysanthemum Wormhole hanging overhead, the world was very likely undergoing some unknown change.

At the mention of this topic, Di Lena became interested. She mysteriously asked, "Do you believe there are gods in this world?"

"No. There are plenty of lunatics, though," Qi Lin said.

Xu Yi could not help laughing when he heard that. He quickly took a gulp of Beer to calm himself down.

"Then there's nothing to talk about." Di Lena waved her hand.

"You talk. I'll listen. I'll make my own judgment," Qi Lin said.

Di Lena looked around and saw that the passersby were all eating barbecue and chatting, with no one paying attention to their table.

So she had Qi Lin lean closer, then raised her middle finger. A wisp of flame ignited out of thin air above it, but only for an instant before vanishing.

Qi Lin rubbed her eyes, finding it hard to believe. Had that been an illusion?

"See? That's divine power. And the foundation of divine power is possessing a Super Gene. You have a Super Gene in your body, but you aren't in the Super Soldier Company's roster," Di Lena said.

As the future captain of the Super Soldier Company, she naturally wanted to recruit a wild Super Warrior when she found one.

"Xu Yi, was I hallucinating just now?" Qi Lin looked at Xu Yi, hoping for his answer.

"It was an illusion." Xu Yi nodded.

"Oh, then it must have been an illusion," Qi Lin said.

"I..." Di Lena nearly exploded on the spot after hearing that.

She motioned for Qi Lin to lean closer again, then repeated the trick. This time, however, the flame lasted two or three seconds, much longer than before.

"Xu Yi, you lied to me," Qi Lin said. This time, she truly believed it. There really were extraordinary people in the world.

"Mm, I did," Xu Yi replied calmly.

"You believe me now, right?" Di Lena said smugly.

"Not really," Qi Lin answered.

"It's fine. You're an ordinary person, after all. It's hard for you to understand in such a short time. Once you join our organization, you'll enter a New World," Di Lena said.

At that moment, the dozens of barbecue skewers Di Lena had ordered were finally brought to the table.

She began wolfing them down like a starving ghost reincarnated, feasting with gusto.

Wu Zhao covered her face. Her queen's table manners were truly unbearable to watch.

All she could do was give Xu Yi and Qi Lin an apologetic look, asking for their understanding.

"Xu Yi, why aren't you shocked at all?" Qi Lin noticed that Xu Yi had remained calm from beginning to end.

"Yeah, why aren't you surprised?" Di Lena asked distractedly as she continued eating.

"I cultivate immortality. Why would I be surprised?" Xu Yi said casually.

"..." Qi Lin.

She had practically grown up with Xu Yi. How could she not know what kind of person he was?

Cultivating immortality? Cultivating my ass!

Compared to cultivating immortality, Super Warriors seemed more believable, since they had the logic of modern technology behind them.

"Cultivating immortality? Hahaha! Isn't that just ancient records carved into stones? At its core, it's humanity's ignorance of unknown knowledge, blind faith. It's really just technology. What cultivating immortality is there? Where we come from, we create gods," Di Lena said.

Xu Yi did not argue. There was no need, and he could not be bothered to debate it. There was little point.

Di Lena ordered nearly a hundred more Lamb Skewers and continued devouring them like a whirlwind. Yet her lower belly showed no sign of swelling, remaining flat and smooth.

Qi Lin kept watching Di Lena, becoming more and more convinced that the girl before her was no ordinary person.

Wu Zhao wanted to speak but stopped herself. She glanced at her wallet and let out a faint sigh for no apparent reason.
