Bro Has to Start Over

"Third Brother, is there anywhere else I can wander around freely?"

Lin Yi felt a little strange staying in the Sea God's domain. Besides, now that he'd bought his first divine ring, he was completely destitute. He had to find something to do to get rid of the shame of being penniless.

So he immediately set his sights on Tang San.

As a God King, Tang San surely knew everything there was to know about the Divine Realm. Getting him to point out a path would be a piece of cake.

Tang San thought about it and figured Lin Yi wanted to cultivate on his own, so he smiled faintly.

"Lin Yi, if you want to take your cultivation a step further, there are ways. Apart from God of Destruction and me being at odds, the other gods—Goddess of Life, God of Emotion, God of Justice, God of Darkness, and the rest—are fairly reasonable. If you're not afraid of getting a thorough beating, you can try going over there."

"Could I work for them?"

Tang San was stunned.

"W-work for them? You've already become a god. Why would you still need to work?"

"Heh, I just want to experience life."

Lin Yi gave an uneasy smile and shrugged.

"Third Brother, just tell me where I can make some money."

"Making money is easy enough, but you should know they're all strong-willed. You'll have to earn their approval through your own efforts. I can only watch from the sidelines; I can't interfere, or I'd upset the balance of the Divine Realm."

"Fine!"

Lin Yi nodded. "Then, in that case, I'll just..."

"I haven't given you the maps yet. Where do you think you're going?"

Seeing Lin Yi's clueless look, Tang San couldn't help smiling.

"You seem to have plenty of ability, but not much sense. Wait a moment. I'll give you maps of every place in the Divine Realm."

"Then I owe you one, Third Brother."

After getting maps to those few places, Lin Yi first chose to go to the God of Emotion's domain.

From what he knew, the current God of Emotion should be Tang San's son-in-law, Huo Yuhao. He and Tang Wutong were both pretty easygoing, and if Lin Yi could win them over, he might be able to make money faster!

Once he'd made up his mind, Lin Yi immediately followed the coordinates on the map and headed for the God of Emotion's domain.

At that moment, inside the divine residence, Tang Wutong was acting spoiled with Huo Yuhao.

"Hubby, just order me some takeout. I really love that roast duck!"

Huo Yuhao looked hesitant. "Honey, you've ordered takeout N times this month already. How about you try my grilled fish just once?"

"Th-then catch me a fish first. If you can do it within one second..."

"Here's your fish!"

Lin Yi's sudden appearance instantly put Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong on alert. They released their powers at the same time.

"Don't misunderstand!"

Seeing their reaction, Lin Yi immediately waved his hands.

"I'm not your enemy. Third Brother recommended me for a job. I just heard this beautiful lady say she wanted takeout. There's no need to go to all that trouble. If you're willing to pay me, I can make you different delicious dishes every day—and I can make anything you'd find on a takeout menu!"

"Dad recommended you?"

Tang Wutong furrowed her brows, stepped forward a couple of paces, and looked Lin Yi over carefully. Then she smiled.

"Not bad, kid. You're already a Level 137 Soul Elder, and you even have the rare Supreme Dragon God Soul Ring. For that alone, you can stay!"

"Wife, isn't it dangerous to take in a stranger whose background we don't know?"

"Hm?"

Tang Wutong shot Huo Yuhao a sidelong glance and put her hands on her hips.

"Are you itching for a beating again, Huo Yuhao?"

"Yes!"

Seeing Huo Yuhao's nervous expression, Tang Wutong secretly laughed.

"All right, it's not like I haven't considered the consequences. But since Dad recommended him, he must have something special about him. Let's keep an eye on him. We might even discover something else."

"Ahem."

Lin Yi coughed awkwardly.

"Um, you two First-Level Gods, could I start discussing my wages?"

"We can talk about wages, but first I want to see what kind of delicious food you can make. And besides..."

Tang Wutong's gaze suddenly turned serious, and she instantly drew the Golden Dragon Spear.

Lin Yi's expression darkened too, and he activated his Dragon God Martial Soul, ready to defend himself.

He knew in his heart that whether or not Tang Wutong believed who he was, she wouldn't kill an innocent person. So defense was still the best move.

"You really are a clever one."

Tang Wutong put away the Golden Dragon Spear and smiled faintly.

"Let's get one thing straight: if your takeout tastes good, your pay doubles. I'll pay you according to the standard wages you see online. If you want to earn more, just make more. I don't gain weight anyway. Heehee!"

Damn, people who didn't gain weight really had the means to act so smug!

Lin Yi sighed inwardly, but to earn back his Gold Soul Coins, he had no choice but to play chef.

"Thank you, First-Level God."

"Remember, my name is Tang Wutong. I'm the Butterfly God, and my husband is the God of Emotion, Huo Yuhao. With us here, you can work without worry!"
