Lightning God Plane, Endless Thunder Sea, Lingyue Island.
Lingyue Island was a small island located in a southern corner of the Endless Thunder Sea.
Lingyue Island was not particularly large by the standards of the Lightning God Plane, measuring less than ten thousand li from north to south. The entire island was covered by a vast concealment magic array, and coupled with its remote location, almost no gods knew of Lingyue Island.
At that moment, a small Metal Lifeform was flying over the Endless Thunder Sea toward Lingyue Island.
The small Metal Lifeform was not especially fast, and it flew with great caution.
After arriving ten thousand meters outside Lingyue Island, the Metal Lifeform slowly came to a stop.
Then, a burly man stepped out of the Metal Lifeform. He wore golden armor, had a head of thick golden hair, sharp brows and bright eyes, and an imposing, dignified appearance.
The golden-armored man looked somewhat dejected. He glanced at the map in his hand, surveyed the boundless Endless Thunder Sea around him, then sighed softly.
Putting away the Metal Lifeform and the map, the golden-armored man respectfully bowed toward Lingyue Island, which was hidden within the magic array.
"Anlas, Prefecture Lord of Luoyang Prefecture in the Lightning God Plane, requests an audience with Lady Nenisha!"
The golden-armored man's voice was deep and powerful. After bowing forward, he knelt on one knee in midair.
The fact that he called himself the lord of a prefecture showed that this man named Anlas was certainly no weakling.
About a minute passed, yet no one replied to Anlas.
Anlas's expression did not change in the slightest. He remained kneeling on one knee in midair.
Another five minutes or so passed.
A clear, calm female voice entered Anlas's mind from an unknown direction.
"Come in."
The crisp female voice seemed to possess some sort of magic. It exploded in Anlas's mind, leaving him briefly dazed.
When Anlas came back to his senses, a white vortex had appeared less than ten thousand meters in front of him. Within the vortex seemed to lie another world.
"Phew~~~"
Hearing that familiar yet unfamiliar voice, Anlas could not help but let out a long breath.
Without hesitation, he flew directly into the white vortex before him.
Once Anlas passed through the white vortex, the sight of Lingyue Island was fully revealed before his eyes.
The entire Lingyue Island was filled with singing birds and fragrant flowers, planted with all manner of exotic flowers and rare herbs renowned throughout the various planes.
A faint fragrance drifted into Anlas's nose, making him feel refreshed and invigorated.
At the center of Lingyue Island stood a completely white castle.
The castle was covered in peculiar green vines, upon which bloomed white flowers that emitted a strange, faint glow.
Following the guidance of the voice transmission, Anlas walked toward the castle.
The doors opened, revealing the scene inside the castle to Anlas.
The castle's interior was simply decorated. The hall contained only a few flowers and plants grown in pots.
A tall woman in purple stood before a peculiar green flower, her back facing Anlas as though she were admiring it. She had long purple hair.
The woman's purple eyes were like stars, utterly free of any impurity.
"Anlas pays his respects to Lady Nenisha!"
Upon seeing the woman, Anlas did not even dare to look at her for long. He immediately knelt on one knee respectfully and spoke in a low voice.
It was obvious who this woman was, given that even a Prefecture Lord displayed such a posture and demeanor before her.
Nenisha was the number one expert beneath the Overgod in the Lightning God Plane, the Lightning God Plane's sole Lightning Paragon!
"Anlas, if I remember correctly, your lightning divine avatar should be much stronger than your light divine avatar. Why did you use your light divine avatar to travel here just now?"
Nenisha did not turn to look at Anlas. As she admired the flower before her, she spoke casually.
"My lady, my lightning divine avatar has already perished in the recent Plane Battlefield."
Hearing this, Anlas could not help but give a bitter smile.
"Oh? So you intend to use the favor I owe you to have me avenge you?"
With that one sentence from Anlas, Nenisha immediately understood why he had come.
Before Nenisha became a Paragon, Anlas had once inadvertently helped her greatly. Thus, Nenisha owed Anlas a favor.
"That is correct. I do wish for you to help me kill that person, but..."
At the mention of his strongest lightning divine avatar, a trace of hatred could not help appearing on Anlas's face. He trailed off halfway through his sentence, as though he had something difficult to say.
"If you have something to say, say it plainly. I do not like people beating around the bush."
Nenisha's tone remained calm, but Anlas no longer dared to hesitate.
"Lady Nenisha, the god who killed my strongest divine avatar is an expert from the Heavenly Realm named Audrey. Although Audrey is merely a city lord of the Heavenly Realm, she is even stronger than I am. Most importantly, I heard that Wyatt, the Lightning Paragon of the Four Divine Beasts Family, also seems to owe Audrey a favor."
After saying this, Anlas could not help stealing a glance at Nenisha, as though he wanted to see her reaction.
"Anlas, do you distrust me that much? Are you afraid I cannot defeat Wyatt, or that I lack the ability to kill Audrey in Wyatt's hands?"
"No, my lady, that is not what I meant!"
Anlas jolted in fright. Afraid that Nenisha would misunderstand, he hurriedly shook his head and explained.
At that moment, Nenisha slowly turned around, revealing her flawless, beautiful face, which carried a hint of heroic spirit, before Anlas.
"Do not worry. Since I owe you this favor, I will naturally do my utmost to repay it. Leaving aside whether Wyatt is currently by Audrey's side, even if he is, he will not be able to stop me."
"If you asked me to kill a Paragon, I might not be able to do it. But the person you want me to kill is merely an ordinary High-God."
Nenisha spoke with great confidence.
Her confidence was not blind, because she was a Paragon, the only female Paragon.
She possessed her own pride.
"Where is Audrey now?"
With a wave of her hand, Nenisha stored the flower before her in her Spatial Ring, then continued asking.
"The Plane Battlefield!"
When Nenisha asked that question, Anlas knew that the matter was almost certainly settled. As he breathed a sigh of relief, he answered respectfully.
"I visited the Zijing Mountains once while traveling through Hell, but back then I only wandered around outside the Mist Sea. This time, I finally have a chance to go inside and take a look."
Looking at the enormous mountain range stretching for hundreds of thousands of li before him, Wyatt, who was gradually approaching, thought to himself.
The Zijing Mountains were considered a very famous region of Hell.
The entire Zijing Mountains were completely shrouded by a white Mist Sea. Even powerful High-Gods who entered the Mist Sea often never returned.
Yet from time to time, Purple Crystals capable of strengthening souls would fly out from the Mist Sea.
Because of this, the Eighteen Families had emerged outside the Zijing Mountains. The Eighteen Families formed an alliance and earned wealth by collecting Purple Crystals.
At present, all of the upper echelons of the Eighteen Families had gathered outside the Mist Sea of the Zijing Mountains.
Within the Eighteen Families alliance, there was one Asura and more than twenty Seven-Star Devils.
Such strength was already quite formidable throughout the entire Zijing Continent.
Yet today, these experts stood respectfully outside the Mist Sea, as though they were waiting for someone's arrival.
The Lower Gods and Mid-Gods who normally made their living collecting Purple Crystals around the outskirts of the Mist Sea had all hidden far away. None of them dared approach, afraid that a single misstep might offend these supreme experts of the Eighteen Families.
Whoosh!
After a long while, a purple figure actually emerged from the Mist Sea of the Zijing Mountains, instantly appearing before the group of experts from the Eighteen Families.
The purple figure was merely a cute youth with a bald head and a baby face, standing only about one and a half meters tall.
Yet the youth's appearance made the experts of the Eighteen Families even more respectful, and they all stepped forward to pay their respects.
"Mr. Leisjing!"
"Lord Leisjing!"
Looking at these experts whom his mother had specifically arranged around the outskirts of the Zijing Mountains, Leisjing impatiently waved his hand.
"Enough, enough. You had all better perform well later. If my distinguished guest feels that the reception is inadequate, then do not blame me for showing no mercy!"
As he said this, Leisjing clenched his small fist and snorted at the people of the Eighteen Families around him.
