Theresia's Scheme: Shifting the Blame to Bote'er

"Seven-Colored Blood Crystal?"

Upon hearing Theresia's words, Bebe was startled, but he remained outwardly calm. As Linley's brother, although he was usually mischievous, Bebe proved to be a strong man in crucial moments.

"Boss, this is bad. This matter is probably related to Venna."

In the courtyard of the Hell Yemu City, Linley's Water Divine Clone and Bebe's Wind Divine Clone sat facing each other, communicating directly through telepathic transmission deep within their souls.

What exactly happened?

Linley's tone was somewhat anxious, and at the same time, the Earth Sovereign's avatar increased its speed, leaving behind a beam of light like a shooting star.

"Boss, it's like this, I ran into Venna before, and then I got a crystal that emitted a seven-colored halo from him..."

Bebe quickly recounted the events without holding anything back. Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, he could roughly guess that the crystal emitting seven-colored light was the Seven-Colored Blood Crystal.

"This is bad, Bebe! That Seven-Colored Blood Crystal is probably a true Supreme God Token. If I'm not mistaken, he probably has Supreme God Appraisal in his Spatial Ring!"

Linley's face instantly turned extremely ugly. Bebe didn't know about the Overgod Mission, but he had visited other Overgod more than once over the years and was quite familiar with it.

Based on what Bebe said, Linley quickly realized that Venna had probably obtained the Supreme God Token but was killed by Bebe, and therefore wanted to use the information from the Supreme God Token to guide the Overgod to kill Bebe.

"What should I do? My divine Divine Clone needs time to arrive. Theresia and I are both Low-Sovereign; he's not afraid of me."

"If Bebe and I refuse to show our Spatial Ring, he will definitely suspect that we are deliberately hiding the Supreme God Token. If we take out the Seven-Colored Blood Crystal, he will suspect that we still have the World Destruction Wheel we haven't handed over."

Linley was instantly caught in a mental storm, and for a moment he was a little annoyed. Although Linley had been researching ultimate techniques over the years and had also fused with the Mysteries four different laws, he believed that his strength surpassed Theresia's, but Theresia was unaware of this.

In Theresia's eyes, Linley was his equal in strength, both being lower-level Paragon Low-Sovereign. There was no need for them to be enemies, but he wasn't afraid to be enemies either. If Bebe had the Supreme God Token, Theresia would never mind killing Bebe.

After crushing the Spatial Ring, I can just take the token from the Spatial Turbulence. At worst, I can fight Linley.

Linley quickly considered his options. First, if he denied it, Theresia would most likely make a move. Second, if he took out the Seven-Colored Blood Crystal, Theresia would probably still try to seize the non-existent "World Destruction Wheel."

Linley considered several methods, then gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and slowly spoke:

"Theresia, this is something meant for Lord Ren. You want to take it away?"

Linley stared into Theresia's eyes, his tone tinged with disdain.

"Lord Ren?"

Theresia was slightly startled, then fell silent for a moment, unsure whether Linley was telling the truth.

The Overgod all knew that Linley was Overgod under Lord Ren, but that didn't mean anything; Theresia was still loyal to the Wind Overlord, Diya.

But loyalty aside, when it really comes down to it, he still thinks of himself. At least Theresia didn't intend to offer it to the Wind Overlord, so she was a little dumbfounded when Linley wanted to offer the treasure to Lord Ren.

As for whether Linley would use Lord Ren's name to deceive him, Theresia didn't think Linley would have the guts, just as he wouldn't dare to invoke the name of the Wind Overlord. After all, doing such a thing would be equivalent to acting under the Overlord's name, and the Overlord killing him wouldn't violate the agreement of the Overgod.

"Very well, since you intend to offer it to Lord Ren, let's leave it at that."

Theresia was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly and disappeared.

"Phew! Boss, you actually tried to fool him with Lord Ren, this..."

In the small courtyard of Hell Yemu City, Bebe cautiously asked, "Although Linley did it to save him, using Ren's name is still a problem."

"I didn't lie to him, Bebe. Even disregarding the adult's power, just the fact that he has done me a favor means I can't do anything to harm him."

Linley shook his head slightly; he had truly decided to hand over the Supreme God Token to Ren.

Firstly, while the Overgod Mission is very useful, it's somewhat of a double-edged sword for Linley. Linley had talked with the Sovereign of Death and knew that the Overgod Mission has limitations, making the Supreme Artifact almost the most cost-effective option.

However, for Linley, Supreme Artifact is not as useful as a Sovereign Spark. Lord Ren still has two Sovereign Spark of the Four Divine Beasts. It would be a better choice to exchange the Supreme God Token for Sovereign Spark with the lord.

Secondly, the Overgod Mission is both an opportunity and a danger. Bebe only has one token, and Linley feels that as a Low-Sovereign, it is very dangerous for him to seize another token.

But handing it over to Lord Ren is different. Lord Ren is one of the two strongest Overlord, and he has no worries about danger when seizing the Supreme God Token.

"Hmph, Linley, you think you can intimidate me with Lord Ren!"

After Theresia left, her expression darkened, and she felt a growing resentment towards Linley.

However, he dared not compete for anything. The name of Ren was a mountain weighing down on the heads of many Overgod. Even Augusta, the most arrogant and domineering, who did not take the Sovereign of Death and the Life Overlord seriously, would not provoke Ren.

"Since I can't have it, I might as well stir things up and cause Linley some trouble."

Theresia's eyes lit up, and she came up with a plan. She then quickly went to the teleportation array and arrived in the Heavenly Realm.

At this time, the Heavenly Realm had the largest number of main Overgod in Divine Plane. Although the Fate Overlord Oufu, had returned to his home Material Plane and rarely appeared since the War of Overlord, the status of the Overgod under Oufu's command had risen accordingly.

The Floating Continent, Flame Mountain Valley, is a dangerous place in the Heavenly Realm. Its terrifying temperature releases fiery red mist, and even Six-Star Celestial Chosen dares not approach it easily.

Deep in the valley, in a simple and unadorned courtyard, sat a round-faced man dressed in a red robe. This man was none other than Bote'er, Low-Sovereign who was privately known by many Overgod as the number one lackey of Oufu.

While it's not uncommon for Overgod from different factions to pledge allegiance to other Overlord —for example, the Sovereign of Death has a Sovereign of Life under his command— Bote'er is a special case.

Because Bote'er's attitude toward Oufu had reached a fanatical level, it could be said that he regarded Oufu as a kind of faith, and the small courtyard where he lived was also made in imitation of Oufu's, in a rather simple style.

Ever since the final battle between Oufu and Ren, Bote'er has been helping Oufu handle all sorts of affairs in the Heavenly Realm, as if she had transformed from an Overgod into a butler.

"Hmm? Theresia?"

Bote'er suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the hook-nosed man who had suddenly appeared with some surprise.

"Hey, Bote'er, long time no see."

Theresia gave him a friendly smile, as if the two were old friends.

"Yes, it's been almost a trillion years. You should definitely have a proper stay here this time."

Although Bote'er didn't know what medicine Theresia was selling, he still gave her a polite smile.
