Fishing Law Enforcement?

At Netherworld Mountain Peak stood an exceptionally grand black castle.

Upon the throne in the castle's main hall sat a Red-haired Pretty Girl dressed in a purple-gold robe.

The girl merely sat there quietly, yet it seemed as though the surrounding space had become somewhat frozen. Her slightly reddened eyes saw through the void as she stared at the Netherworld Hotel beneath Netherworld Mountain.

The spatial fluctuations that had just come from the Netherworld Hotel had naturally been perceived by the Red-haired Pretty Girl with perfect clarity.

"You really are cautious. Are you afraid of my Netherworld Heart?"

The girl brushed her red hair aside, and a beautiful curve rose at the corner of her lips.

"I actually have little interest in studying that thing. I just wonder, in this contest between Overgods, whether the Four Divine Beasts will have the last laugh, or whether one of those Overlords will emerge as the final victor. Just thinking about it is quite exciting."

Spatial Turbulence was a vast expanse far larger than all the planes combined.

No one knew exactly how immense Spatial Turbulence was, not even Overgods.

Spatial Turbulence was exceedingly dangerous to deities.

Without a Sovereign Artifact Level body, a Material Defense Sovereign Artifact, or the strength of a Paragon High-God, one would essentially be shredded to pieces by Spatial Turbulence's violent power the moment one entered.

Streams of multicolored spatial energy continuously surged around Wyatt. However, they were firmly blocked by the Cyan Light Shield one meter before him and could not come within the slightest distance of him.

This Cyan Light Shield had not been cast by Wyatt. Clearly, someone was protecting him.

The damaged space of the Netherworld had already repaired itself. Wyatt could now clearly see the Netherworld's Spatial Barrier, and he could even make out some scenes within the Netherworld.

Four figures stood quietly around Wyatt, smiling as they looked at him.

"Four ancestors, why are you here?"

After sensing the auras of the four people around him, Wyatt could not help but let out a sigh of relief.

At the instant he had been dragged in, Wyatt had thought that an Overgod was attacking him.

He had even suspected Augusta, the Lord of Light, or Hurrei, the Lightning Sovereign. Wyatt had even suspected the Black Water Sovereign.

Yet he had never expected it to be his own four ancestors.

Seeing Wyatt's relieved yet puzzled expression, Azure Dragon Leiding chuckled and said,

"Your Destruction Divine Avatar has also reached the High-God realm. As expected of the greatest genius of our Four Divine Beasts Family. With another High-God avatar, there is another option for refining a Sovereign Spark."

Rather than answering Wyatt's question first, he praised Wyatt instead.

"Wyatt, you were just at Netherworld Mountain. You should know that Netherworld Mountain is the territory of the Lord of Death. Unlike the other three Rule Overlords, although the Lord of Death is not a Paragon-level Overlord, he possesses not only a Supreme God Artifact, but also the Netherworld Heart, a supreme treasure of the Netherworld."

"It is said that the Netherworld Heart can exert an extremely bizarre and terrifying power within the Netherworld. The relationships among the Overgods are somewhat delicate at present, so we have no choice but to stay on guard."

As soon as Leiding finished speaking, Nimo beside him spoke to Wyatt.

"I see."

Upon hearing Vermilion Bird's words, Wyatt understood.

The Four Divine Beasts were indeed in an awkward position. This meant that they had to be extremely cautious in everything they did, even gathering together at all times.

"Wyatt, as for why we are here, we actually came for that Black Water Sovereign."

The White Tiger Sovereign, clad in Tiger-Stripe Armor and with flowing long hair, gave a mischievous grin before continuing.

"We also heard that you wiped out the Mingshe Family in the Netherworld. The Mingshe Family's ancestor had some connection with the Black Water Sovereign, so we wondered whether the Black Water Sovereign would have the courage to confront you. If he really dared to appear, we would have a reason to act against him and take his Sovereign Spark."

The White Tiger Sovereign's meaning was already obvious. They were engaging in fishing law enforcement!

If the Black Water Sovereign had dared to appear, the Water Sovereign Spark would probably already have been delivered into Wyatt's hands by the Four Divine Beasts.

Though both were in the Netherworld, the Black Water Sovereign was an unimaginably great distance away from the Lord of Death. If the Four Divine Beasts killed the Black Water Sovereign, it would likely take no more than the blink of an eye.

In such a short time, the Lord of Death, far away at Netherworld Mountain, would have no time to stop them. Unfortunately, the Black Water Sovereign had not acted this time.

"Once that Water Sovereign Spark is given to you for refinement, when we kill the Lightning Sovereign, his two Sovereign Sparks will also be given to you to refine. By then, even compared to the Four Rule Overlords, your strength definitely will not be much weaker!"

The White Tiger Sovereign's words were truly shocking.

Wyatt's heart trembled as he listened from the side.

The Lightning Sovereign's Sovereign Sparks would be given to him to refine? Did that mean the Four Divine Beasts were already planning to attack the Lightning Sovereign?

Moreover, from what the Four Divine Beasts meant, the Black Water Sovereign also seemed to be on their list of targets. It was merely because Overgod-level experts could not casually attack Lower Gods that the Four Divine Beasts had not found an opportunity.

"What, do you find that surprising?"

Seeing Wyatt's expression, Leiding chuckled.

"The relationships between Overgods, especially those surrounding our Four Divine Beasts, are far more complicated than you imagine."

"We four Lower Gods can stand shoulder to shoulder with, and even kill, Overlords. What we rely on is our Combined Innate Divine Ability."

"How could those Overlords possibly not covet an Innate Divine Ability capable of bridging such a vast gap? Innate Divine Abilities can be studied. If Overgod-level experts could use our Innate Divine Ability, would that not make them invincible?"

"When Overgod-level experts attack Overgod-level experts, there are no rules among Overgods restricting them. Thus, we Four Divine Beasts can only act together forever. We do not dare separate at all."

At this point, Leiding could not help but sigh.

Was this not also the sorrow of the Four Divine Beasts?

The four of them relied on their Combined Innate Divine Ability to rival Overlords.

However, using the Combined Innate Divine Ability consumed the Four Divine Beasts' own Quintessential Blood.

Such a powerful move could not possibly be used continuously, so every step the Four Divine Beasts took had to be taken with extreme care.

"From the day we became Overgods until now, every step we have taken has been like treading on thin ice. With every step, we must constantly weigh our options. So many Overgods are watching us. If we show weakness, even more Overgods will set their sights on our Quintessential Blood. Therefore, we must be domineering—more domineering than anyone else—so that every Overgod knows the four of us cannot be provoked. Wyatt, when we fight Hurrei, do you think we will succeed?"

By then, the Four Divine Beasts had long since taken Wyatt away from the edge of the Netherworld plane.

Carried by the Four Divine Beasts through Spatial Turbulence, Wyatt was moving at an astonishing speed, countless times faster than his flight speed in a Material Plane.

It was Wyatt's first time traveling through Spatial Turbulence while carried by Overgods. As they moved, Leiding spoke with some emotion.

Leiding's words truly gave Wyatt much to think about.

Though Overgods appeared lofty before deities, as if indifferent to all matters, they had once been deities themselves. They had merely been luckier and obtained Sovereign Sparks.

To increase their strength, they were sometimes even more crazed than ordinary deities. Massacring an entire race for even the slightest improvement in strength was perfectly normal.

"Since the four ancestors have already decided to act against the Lightning Sovereign, you must surely be confident. Given your temperaments, you would not do something without certainty."

Wyatt said with a smile.

After enduring for so long, now that the Four Divine Beasts had decided to strike first against the Lightning Sovereign, how could they possibly lack confidence?
