Without the soul mutation of four divine clones, even if Linley became an unprecedented four-element Sovereign, he would at most be ten times stronger than a mid-level Sovereign.
To Hodan, that was no threat at all.
Besides, Beirut only had two Sovereign Sparks in his possession. Neither Beirut nor Qinghuo could possibly abandon their own Sovereign clones just to elevate Linley.
Even if Linley became a two-element Sovereign, the two of them joining forces still could not kill a Sovereign in a short time—not even a lower Sovereign. Their speeds were all roughly the same.
Moreover, no Sovereign had offended them now. Once they attacked a Sovereign, they would be openly falling out with the other Sovereigns.
Although attacking another lower Sovereign would not count as violating the agreement between Sovereigns, nor would it bring the joint pursuit of the Overgod of Rules, it would still earn them the hostility of all Sovereigns.
Even Hurel, the Thunder Element Sovereign, might find an excuse to have his Earth Element Sovereign clone provoke them, giving him a pretext to strike at Beirut and the others.
After all, Hurel's Earth Element Sovereign clone was also a lower Sovereign, and it possessed an additional portion of Willpower beyond that of ordinary lower Sovereigns. They could not take such a risk, nor did they have the strength to do so.
It was even questionable whether his Sovereign clone would dare set foot on the Yulan Continent.
Hell, Bloodpeak Continent, Tianji Mountain Range, inside the secret chamber of Hodan's residence.
After exchanging for Sovereign Artifacts, Hodan immediately left and returned to Hell. As for what Linley did next, he no longer needed to care. Linley would certainly make up for his shortcomings according to his own circumstances, and then he would no longer have any chance
