Ancient Secrets, Li Ke Says: "Then, Let's Capture a Deity"

If Volibear is determined to run, then Godless can stop him, even though he is currently weakened.

Therefore, even though Lissandra was unwilling, her tall figure stood in the air, radiating an extremely cold aura, but she could only coldly watch Volibear's fleeing shadows.

With her sharp canine teeth biting a lip, Lissandra sighed helplessly.

"Why are you sighing? Didn't we win?"

Hearing Lissandra sigh, Li Ke looked at her curiously.

After chasing for a while, Ahri returned at some point and was flying beside Li Ke, curiously watching Lissandra. Her small face, peeking out from between her white hair, was full of vigilance, and she was looking at Lissandra with some nervousness.

Hmm. This woman is a bit stronger than her, but if it really comes down to a fight, Ahri has a lot of tricks up her sleeve!

It's not that I'm actually afraid of her!

Because combat is not simply a matter of comparing numbers. It's not that if one side has a combat power of 100 and the other side has 95, the one with 95 will definitely lose. There are many factors involved, such as fighting spirit, mentality, environmental factors, and the "attribute factors" between the two sides.

Upon hearing Li Ke's question, Lissandra replied in a low voice, "If I miss this opportunity, will I be able to kill him again?"

Lissandra said, then sighed again.

Lissandra was truly frustrated because this was her best chance to kill Volibear. There would never be another opportunity like this. Volibear would never dare to stand up so brazenly again. In the future, whenever he sensed the presence of several Deity around him, he would probably start thinking about running away.

Li Ke looked at the sullen Lissandra speechlessly, feeling that Lissandra was overthinking things.

Did she really want to kill Volibear?

After comprehending the power of the laws, Li Ke also discovered something: although his power of the laws was born from the Soul Blossom, it can be said to be a completely new path on Runeterra, a path that has never been seen before and will never be seen again. On this great path of the laws, only Li Ke will be able to master it in the future.

However, Soul Blossom also originated on the other side of Runeterra. Soul Blossom and Runeterra are not separate entities; the Material Realm and the Spirit Realm are both Runeterra, simply two sides of the same leaf.

Therefore, when Jin'er died, Li Ke sensed the emotions of Runeterra. If Ionia could give birth to spirits with self-awareness, how much more so Runeterra?

The strange phenomena that occurred when Jin'er died perfectly proved this point; Runeterra was grieving and sorrowful for Jin'er's passing.

Seal Sister's voice rang out from the side, "Impossible, Lissandra. You really want to kill Volibear? Let's not even talk about Runeterra stopping you from doing that. Just tell me, how do you plan to face Ornn then?"

"Ornn? Didn't he break up with Volibear?" Snow Fox White thought for a moment after hearing Seal Sister's words and then spoke up.

She tilted her head back, avoiding Ahri's burning gaze.

Not surprising, to Ahri, the Snow Fox White is her brethren! They are both beautiful and cute Little Fox. Although Ahri's Fox appearance is slender and well-proportioned, while the white Fox's appearance looks a bit chubby and its fur is longer, it doesn't matter. This is the first time Ahri has met another Fox, and Fox that is almost as strong as herself!

But what about Bai? Ah, Ahri isn't her kin.

"Broken up?" Seal Sister gave a meaningful look.

"Okay, I know you and Ornn are on good terms now. Tell me, what's the situation between Ornn and Volibear?" Snow Fox White said, slightly annoyed by Seal Sister's expression.

Lissandra also looked at Seal Sister, waiting for Seal Sister answer.

The close relationship between Seal Sister and Ornn is well-known among the Old Gods of Freljord. After all Freljord, it was Seal Sister introduced the seawater of the Frozen Sea to irrigate Freljord when Ornn carved it out with his hammer. The collision of extreme heat and extreme cold is what made Freljord the icy land it is today.

Seal Sister didn't mince words, saying, "Ornn isn't what you think. He may seem ruthless and cold-blooded, but in reality, his heart, like his outward appearance, is warmer and more passionate than anyone else's."

"He's just not good at expressing himself. He doesn't like to express his emotions through words and actions. He always keeps them to himself. Whether it's joy or sadness, he hides them away and processes them alone."

"I ask you, why did Ornn and Volibear fight each other?"

"I remember it was because of humans?" the Snow Fox White asked, tilting its little head.

As she spoke, a hint of happiness suddenly flashed in her eyes.

Well, she hasn't come out for a long time. This time, because of Volibear, she came out with the determination to die. After all, she was facing three ancient gods alone, so there was no way she could have survived. But now, not only has she survived, but she has also met up with her old friends and they are chatting now!

"Yes, because of humans. Volibear unilaterally broke with Ornn because Ornn refused to make weapons for him, but Ornn didn't take it seriously because he knew that his younger brother and sister had bad tempers."

Anivia once mischievously burned down Ornn's house, and Volibear had always argued with Ornn until Volibear destroyed Hearth-Home, which enraged Ornn, who then fought with Volibear. "The Seal Sister, as the oldest living Deity present, revealed the secrets of Freljord's ancient past."

Snow Fox White listened with great interest, as did Lissandra.

How long did Ornn actually live?

Nobody knows.

But one thing is certain: Ornn was the first being born on Runeterra, followed by Volibear and Anivia. For a long time, there were only these three Deity on Runeterra, so they helped each other and had a very good relationship.

Li Ke was listening attentively. He knew this story too; it was mentioned in the backstory of the three Deity of Freljord. Anivia mischievously set fire to Ornn's house, Volibear fought Ornn, and so on. Li Ke knew all of these things.

However, he only knew the general outline, while Seal Sister's account was very detailed and interesting.

Ahri was listening, but every Deity present was older than Ahri, so Ahri simply treated it as listening to a story.

As for Tristana, the gunslinger has gone off to play in the snow again, especially chasing a reindeer and having a great time all by herself.

Seal Sister spoke softly, then continued, "You all believe that Ornn and Volibear fought to a draw in that battle, and on the surface that is true. But in reality, Ornn softened his heart again."

"If the fight continues, Ornn might be seriously injured, but Volibear will be killed. Ornn didn't even use any of his prized weapons; he just fought Volibear with his hammer. He never intended to actually kill Volibear; he just wanted to teach Volibear a lesson."

"He values humanity, but doesn't he also value his own brother?" Seal Sister's expression became complicated.

"Ornn felt immense guilt towards the Hearth-Home. Those humans, whose average lifespan was less than sixty years, meant that time was merely the duration of a nap for Ornn. Yet, it was they who instilled in Ornn self-reproach and guilt. He couldn't face Hearth-Home because he couldn't truly kill Volibear, so he chose to hide away and live with that self-reproach and guilt."

Seal Sister looked at Lissandra and said, "So, in the situation just now, if Volibear hadn't run away and had chosen to fight to the death, we could indeed have killed him. But the consequence would have been facing an enraged Ornn, and his temper... Lissandra, I think you should be well aware of that, you've dealt with Ornn before, haven't you?"

Lissandra nodded, her expression complex, took a deep breath, and exhaled, "I understand."

Lissandra said to Seal Sister.

Seal Sister was simply trying to tell Lissandra that some things are not to be done.

Volibear is indeed their enemy, but Volibear cannot be killed. He is the second life form of Runeterra, deeply loved by Runeterra. Killing him would change Runeterra itself.

Without Volibear, the laws of lightning have lost their controller, and when the immense lightning strikes, all living beings will suffer as a result.

Jin'er and Volibear are not on the same level.

The latter is favored by Runeterra and also has an incredibly powerful older brother.

Ornn is the most powerful Deity in Runeterra, bar none.

Moreover, unlike Volibear, Ornn was not corrupted or tainted. Despite being severely injured and greatly weakened, when he gets enraged, even with Anivia's resurrection and nearly ten Deity on their side, they still wouldn't be able to withstand Ornn's fury.

After listening to Seal Sister's words, Li Ke looked at Lissandra, who had turned into a white-haired woman and returned to her normal size, and said with amusement, "Alright, Lissandra, don't be upset. Leaving Volibear is still useful."

Lissandra looked at Li Ke, about to say something, but then closed her mouth, raised her small face, and looked up at the sky with her white pupils.

Then, Janna and Riven returned, followed by a Janna man— Udyr.

Interestingly, a black and red greatsword was flying beside Udyr. When Li Ke looked at the greatsword, he saw a red eye peering out from the hilt.

Ha, Aatrox really got taken down by Udyr!

When Lissandra saw the returning Deity, her gaze lingered on Riven for a moment before she asked Li Ke, "What did you mean by what you just said?"

"Lissandra, Volibear is very important to us. In the future, we will have many enemies. No matter how much of a bastard Volibear is, he is still Deity of Runeterra."

And as his old rival, you know his personality; he would never help outsiders attack Runeterra, hmm. Now you understand what I mean, right?

Li Ke said to Lissandra with a smile.

From the very beginning, Li Ke never intended to actually kill Volibear. After all, Volibear's combat power was incredibly strong even among the Celestials, Runeterra needed Volibear in the future.

The words Seal Sister had just spoken confirmed this for Li Ke.

That is, Volibear is a powerful bodyguard for Runeterra.

Ornn and Anivia are powerful Deity born from Runeterra to protect themselves. They are "native Deity" of Runeterra, not the corrupted, nor the invaders like the Celestials, nor the Ascended who were Deity by borrowing Aurelion Sol's power.

Leaving aside the Ascended, after all, during the Void Wars, Setaka's Ascended Legion proved themselves. They fought for Runeterra and for the glory of Shurima. As Darkin, they did indeed destroy and damage Runeterra, but that cannot erase what they did.

But the Celestials, eight out of ten of these guys are bastards, so if you catch them, just beat them up without a problem.

Therefore, in the future, as Li Ke grows stronger, relations between the various nations of Runeterra ease, and they become more closely connected, Twin Cities' technology even begins to attempt to penetrate the universe, that may be the time when Runeterra and Celestial Realm erupt into war.

As for Volibear, Li Ke thought that if a group of humans were sent out to praise him and "believe" in him, he might impulsively run off to be the vanguard.

Volibear is infuriating as an enemy because of his strength and ruthlessness, but what if he were an ally?

Who wouldn't want a powerful teammate who shouts "Roaring thunder!" and then gets down on all fours, leading the charge with muscular build and a sharp head?

"That makes sense." Lissandra's eyes brightened; she understood what Li Ke meant.

With the Void invading in the future, how could Volibear not contribute? Throwing this bear into Void and letting him fight there would be a great opportunity!

"And there's one more thing I need to say."

Li Ke smiled and said to Lissandra, then looked at the Snow Fox White and the Seal Sister.

Snow Fox White narrowed its eyes, looking at Li Ke: "What are you going to do?"

Lissandra also looked at Li Ke.

She had never underestimated Li Ke, because Li Ke knew more secrets than she did. However, she had to admit that she still underestimated Li Ke, because the three Deity Li Ke brought were not Deity to Runeterra, and these three Deity were quite obedient to Li Ke.

Li Ke once said that if the Void were to truly erupt, he would be able to summon more than twenty Deity in the future.

If every Deity is that powerful... Lissandra fell silent. She dared not think about it, dared not even consider the power behind Li Ke.

If Li Ke could really do that, then Runeterra would truly be his, and that wouldn't be an exaggeration at all.

"What are your plans for the future with Seal Sister?"

"I don't know, I want to wander around. Even though the agreement was broken, I'll still listen to Anivia, so I'll just take a look around. I've slept long enough," the snow fox said after thinking for a moment.

Seal Sister said, "I should return to the North Sea. Although I also love Freljord, the situation North Sea is complicated. The Old Gods there are always watching Freljord, and I have to protect the Freljord who go out to sea."

Li Ke bent down, looked at Snow Fox White, and said with a smile, "Well then, I have a suggestion for you."

The snow fox nodded.

"I want you to work for me. When Anivia appears in the future, just say that I made you do this. I will tell Anivia that the era of the Three Sisters has returned: Ashe, Sejuani, and Lissandra. They will create a brand new Freljord, and you and Seal Sister, I hope you can serve as the divine beast totem of the new clan."

"The new Freljord will not abandon its traditions. Human clans need faith, and you also need the faith of humanity. This is a good thing for both sides, isn't it?"

Snow Fox White's eyes brightened, while Seal Sister showed deep thought.

Lissandra opened her mouth, wanting to say something. She hadn't agreed to something like this, had she?

But seeing Li Ke smiling at Snow Fox White, she chose to remain silent.

Since we've chosen to trust Li Ke and believe Li Ke can handle the Void, let's listen to Li Ke.

"Tell me, what are you planning to do?" Snow Fox White looked at Li Ke, not agreeing immediately, but asking instead.

Li Ke's smile faded, and he became serious.

He began to speak:

"To build a completely new Freljord, first of all, we need to find those lurking in the shadows. We need to prevent them from causing trouble later. Besides, they started the war, and since they responded to Volibear, they should pay the price for their defeat."

Did you know that in my hometown of Zaun there's a saying, "War can break out at any time, but when the sounds of war will cease is decided by the victors?"

Now, we are the victors, and they are the losers. They think they can get away with it by hiding? No way! I'm not that kind. So, I'm going to drag them all out and make them sign an agreement using the power of the laws to help humanity and choose a major clan to become its guardian."

As Li Ke spoke, the seriousness on his face disappeared, replaced by an irrepressible smile.

"Therefore, I need you and Seal Sister to lead the way for us, to capture all those ancient gods you know and hate, to teach them a lesson one by one, and to force them to sign the agreement."

The Snow Fox White eyes became even brighter.

What Li Ke said left Lissandra and Seal Sister with complicated expressions.

They captured Deity and forced them to sign agreements.

Even during the peak of the Three Sisters' lives, no one dared to imagine such a thing!

But now, an outsider, the weakest human among those present, has spoken out.

Moreover, he was also encouraging the native Old Gods of Freljord to do this together.

Li Ke smiled and extended his hand towards Snow Fox White, saying, "This is the punishment for the loser."

Snow Fox White's beautiful Big Eyes became even brighter, and her little paws involuntarily rose towards Li Ke's palm.

They hit it off immediately!
