"Oh dear... you're God of Evil, what if I fall for you?"

"This girl is just so adorable!"

"Since everyone's retiring anyway, who should we choose to succeed us...? How about we try someone else?"

The Divine Realm.

Inside the Evil God Temple, one of the five temples.

The Goodness God King hesitated, then confided his feelings to the Evil God King beside him.

Just as Ferocious Beast survives a calamity lasting 100,000 years gains the ability to transform into a human, Deity also possess both divine and human forms.

The Asura God beneath the divine form, having been constantly subjected to killing and judgment, was affected by the Killing Intent intent and automatically transformed into a purple-haired, divine-winged state.

The Asura God in human form still maintains his human appearance; he is a young man with a striking appearance and a formidable fighting ability.

The Godess of Kindness today is in human form.

To put it bluntly, the appearance and demeanor are just for showing off.

Human form is what Deity use on a daily basis.

Her pure and innocent appearance made it impossible for anyone to have any impure thoughts. Her white dress was spotless, and although there were no luxurious jewelry to embellish it, it complemented her perfectly and avoided being vulgar. Two strands of her long, jet-black hair fell in front of her, and her large, bright black eyes sparkled with a gentle and moving light. Her otherworldly temperament was like a flawless white lotus, as if it contained all the beauty in the world.

This is different from the feeling one gets from the Life God King.

The Life God King is full of maternal instincts, while the Goodness God King is simple and agile.

Like a fawn in the mountains and forests, it evokes pity.

The young man sitting opposite her had the exact opposite temperament—gray hair, a black robe, and two unknown creatures on his head that looked like Demon horns. His lips were slightly upturned, giving him an air of lawlessness, ruthlessness, and manipulativeness.

At this moment, he is supporting his cheek with one hand.

If the Asura God gives off an aura of dominance, like the Huo Qubing, and the Destruction God King gives off an aura of coldness, like the Path of Hegemony CEO in a romance novel, then this Evil God King gives off an aura of wicked charm, like the aura of a master of demonic arts.

He sat with the Goodness God King opposite him.

The couple has a strikingly different appearance.

They look like the kind of inseparable little rivals.

And that is indeed the case.

In contrast to the seemingly all-conquering Destruction God King and the seemingly all-encompassing Life God King, the Evil God King often treats the Goodness God King with a flippant attitude. Like a boy in school who likes a girl but only dares to express his feelings through pranks, when faced with a difficult question from the Goodness God King of Destruction, the Evil God of Destruction often shrugs, like a prickly hedgehog, feigning reluctance. "Hey, look closely, please! That little guy next to her is Asura God Test Taker ... While this little guy named Ye Qingcang is indeed quite good, with a good understanding of God of Kindness and God of Evil, you know Asura's personality... You can choose that transformed Soul Beast without a problem, but I can only choose this little guy. Aren't you deliberately making me a target for Asura? Your cunning nature is showing?"

"Waaaaah, this is so heartbreaking... You're the one who's been thinking so negatively of me, okay?" The Godess of Kindness feigned tears, temporarily satisfying the Evil God King's small vanity. It's said that simplicity counters cunning, and that's certainly true. Despite the Evil God King's unruly demeanor, the Godess of Kindness actually holds the real power. "Unfortunately, I really do like this Xiao Wu..."

"If you insist..." The Evil God King sighed, foolishly jumping into the trap set by the Godess of Kindness. Just like the Life God King was always manipulated by the Destruction God King, but if the Life God King was determined to do something, the Destruction God King would back down. Women always prove themselves by conquering men. "If you and I join forces, we won't be afraid of that Asura guy. However, this matter is of great importance, and we must consider it carefully!"

"You're so sweet... Mwah!" The Goodness God King skillfully used his cuteness to completely subdue the Evil God King: "Speaking of which, I remember that Poseidon Tang San also had two godhoods, right? How about we go and learn from him?"

"A pilgrimage to the West is impossible."

"Never in this lifetime."

"It's impossible to obtain the scriptures."

"Even if I go to fetch the scriptures, even if I can get them, there's no need to fetch them from that good-for-nothing... Asura is out of the question. If I fetch the scriptures from him, he might just wield the Asura God Sword me down. Although the Asura God Sword is in that little guy's hands... I'd rather fetch the scriptures from God of Destruction. I'm familiar with God of Destruction, and I believe Goddess of Life won't mind."

"That's a happy decision."

The Evil God King snapped his fingers and immediately put his plan into action.

If we were to name the most lawless person in the Divine Realm, it would certainly not be the seemingly God of Evil Rakshasa God, but rather the uncontrollable Evil God King.

The God of Evil of the Rakshasa God is the lowest and most despicable kind of God of Evil.

Just like how she tormented Bibidong.

Is there a better way to help Bibidong repair her physical injuries?

Of course.

For example, even if Bibidong had to endure the pain of being devoured by countless poisons, it would be better than repeatedly experiencing unsatisfied desires, especially after briefly reaching the peak and then forcibly stopping those desires, leaving Bibidong feeling stuck and driven to the brink of madness. This would be more acceptable to Bibidong.

Therefore, the evil of the Rakshasa God is the evil of the pleasure-seekers.

The evil of the Evil God King is ruthless and unscrupulous.

Even the lowest moral standards can be broken by the Evil God King. The God Realm Rules are just a piece of waste paper in the eyes of the Evil God King. Compared with the Rakshasa God who still cares about the rules, the Evil God King's evil is truly lawless.

Therefore, careful discernment is necessary.

The Rakshasa God worships suffering.

The Evil God King worships true evil.

Of all the countless living beings in the world, none are untouched by the sins of the mortal realm!

Fortunately, the only one who could restrain the Evil God King was the Goodness God King sitting to the side. Before the Evil God King could even finish speaking, Evil God King anticipated his next move and quickly stopped him. "Wait a minute, isn't it a bit inappropriate not to tell Asura? You can't hide this from him... Besides, these two little guys haven't decided yet!"

"Tell Asura ≈ Get cut down."

"Tell Ye Qingcang ≈ Tell Asura."

"The little guy you've got your eye on is alright."

"No Deity favors her, so there is no conflict."

"But this little guy here was specifically named by Asura, and he even has the Asura God Sword in his hands, and it's completely unsealed. Do you think Asura can sense the communication between me and this little guy through his natal weapon?"

The Evil God King rubbed his forehead and retorted irritably.

The Goodness God King was very popular among the Divine Realm.

Even the Life God King, who holds the power of healing, cannot match her in this regard, because she takes the path of winning people over with virtue. She believes that if we are sincere with each other, we should not betray each other, and she mainly uses a sincere approach.

Sincerity is not a sure-fire way to win.

Even tricks aren't a guaranteed killer move.

Sincerity plus strategy is the ultimate weapon.

However, this is the crux of the conflict between the Evil God King and the Goodness God King. The Goodness God King believes that all conflicts in the world can be resolved peacefully, but the Evil God King believes that any method of resolving conflicts essentially relies on strength. "I think it's better to gamble on the evil of human nature than on the goodness of human nature."

"Well..." the Goodness God King blinked, "How about we make a bet?"

"Don't try that on me!"

"I've bet you so many times!"

"Never won a single time!"

The Evil God King's nerves were stirred by this familiar word.

He immediately raised his hand, indicating that the conversation was off.

However, this wasn't the first or second time the Evil God King had indicated he wanted to drop the bet. The reason he lost so many times was because he was truly powerless against the pleas of the Goodness God King, and this time was no different. Under the Goodness God King's grumbling, the Evil God King was quickly persuaded, "That's different. Before, you were always the one who initiated the bet with me. Because you harbored evil intentions, you always lost... This time, I initiated the bet with you. According to the rule that the passive party has a higher chance of winning, it's clear that I'm the one who suffered a loss, okay?"

"You don't seem like the type to suffer a loss."

"Tell me the truth, are you setting a trap for me?"

"A seemingly God of Kindness and God of Kindness adult?"

The Evil God King and the Goodness God King often bickered, but the Evil God King was somewhat self-aware enough to let it go, even if he gained the upper hand verbally. If the other party tried to be charming, he couldn't do anything about it. "Alright, tell me, how do you plan to bet, and what are the stakes?"

"Considering your personality..." The Goodness God King patted his chin, grinning broadly, "I bet you'll definitely go to God of Destruction and the others to discuss this matter, but I'm different. I'd rather be honest with the Asura God, that is, tell those two little guys directly... If I fail and can't get those two little guys their godhood, then I lose. Conversely, if I get those two little guys our godhood before you, then you lose... No sabotaging each other's plans!"

"Alright!" The Evil God King thought for a moment, and indeed couldn't find any reason why he would lose. His confidence immediately returned, and he felt the advantage was in his hands. "Don't worry, I will definitely win. By the way, what's the stake this time?"

"If I win, you must come down to the mortal realm with me."

"Let's hand over the divine position to these two little guys."

"Follow me and experience love without any resistance."

"If I lose... it's up to you."

The Goodness God King tossed out his chips with a grin.

"Hiss... that sounds quite sincere!" The Evil God King gasped, a wave of suspicion washing over him. He looked his wife up and down, and asked suspiciously, "You seem quite confident?"

"That's right!"

"Because I trust these two little ones!"

"I also believe that Asura will understand me!"

"Besides, even if I lose, at worst it's just like giving back everything I won from you in the past... Anyway, I'm yours, and you're mine. Good and evil thoughts manifest in any Goddess of Life. Even the Life God King, who holds the power over Goddess of Life, cannot eliminate good and evil thoughts from his own body. Whether we win or lose, isn't it all between you and me?"

"Alright, that's enough."

"Since you've agreed, the bet is settled!"

"Go and talk to your God of Destruction."

"I'll go talk to those two little guys."

"Let's see who the winner is in the end."

The Goodness God King turned around, waved his hand, and transformed into a holy white light, flying out of the Evil God Temple, leaving the Evil God King with only a silvery laugh and the confident bet he had just made.

However, the Goodness God King was unaware of this.

Her only evil was her evil towards the Evil God King.

Just like the Evil God King was unaware of it.

His only goodness was towards the Goodness God King.

As one of the five gods born from chaos, each of them wields different absolute authority, thus complementing each other. God of Kindness wields correct emotion and reason, God of Evil wields incorrect emotion and reason, Goddess of Life wields correct Goddess of Life and matter, God of Destruction wields incorrect Goddess of Life and matter, and Asura wields correctness and error itself. In short, they wield the rules, and their role as enforcers of the law is not just empty talk.

Misguided emotions and rationality represent extreme egoism.

Think from an egoistic perspective.

"Just as I wouldn't share you with anyone but me, that Asura guy certainly wouldn't be willing to share his chosen God Trial Taker with you, unless you exchange benefits with that Asura guy..." In the Evil God Temple, the lonely Evil God King sighed, rubbed his temples, and said with a bitter smile that wasn't entirely sincere, "A bet you dared to make with me that you were destined to lose... You were clearly betting that even if I won, I wouldn't do anything to you... But, to be fair, you did win in this respect!"

Although the Goodness God King could no longer hear these words.

At this moment, she has returned to her temple.

Taking advantage of the fact that I'm on duty today.

He divided his divine thoughts and secretly descended to the mortal realm.

It landed in Ye Qingcang's study.

But Ye Qingcang didn't care about the reasons behind it.

It has nothing to do with who's on duty today.

With the Asura God Power and the Chains of Heaven, he was extremely familiar with the aura of the Deity. Even the Life God King among the Five Great God Kings could not escape his perception, let alone being so close.

Golden halos unfolded behind him.

In a fleeting glimpse, one by one, the pointed arrows of chains, like works of art, emerge from within.

Xiao Wu was completely confused.

Unaware of the situation, Zhu Zhuqing, Bai Chenxiang, Ye Lingling exchanged bewildered glances as they looked at Ye Qingcang, who was assuming an attack stance but not targeting them, and subconsciously followed the direction of the chains.

Violet had guessed it.

But she understood even more clearly that if this suddenly appearing Deity came with malicious intent, whether she could stop him depended entirely on Ye Qingcang; if this suddenly appearing Deity came with good intentions, whether she was nervous or not would not have much impact on the outcome.

Therefore, Violet was actually the calmest person in the room.

I gazed at a hazy white light, which gradually solidified.

Finally, it slowly faded away.

The Goodness God King obediently raised his hands, revealed himself.

That's right, it's another divine thought.

Similar to the Rakshasa God of the past.

However, unlike the Rakshasa God who was forcibly dragged down by Ye Qingcang, this Godess of Kindness came uninvited. "Don't make a move, I'm not an enemy. I've come here to ask for your help... Well, let me introduce myself first, so you don't not know how to address me: I am the Godess of Kindness. I've been watching you for a while, until I saw this girl and was somewhat moved. So, I thought I'd come down and ask for her opinion."

Xiao Wu pointed to herself, lacking confidence.

It looks exactly like a certain meme.
