After a moment of bewilderment, Poseidon Tang San finally calmed down. Although he still didn't have any ideas, at least he didn't seem like a headless fly running around the room anymore.

They probably realized it too.

Running around aimlessly won't help the current situation.

Instead, it caused widespread panic.

Only by remaining calm can we find a way out in the current situation.

It's good to force yourself.

If you've really figured it out, so be it.

Poseidon Tang San did indeed stop, slumping into a chair like a deflated balloon, eyes closed, brows furrowed. Needless to say, one could see the anxiety and unease in his expression.

Compared to Poseidon Tang San.

Perhaps it's because Xiao Wu isn't his wife.

Therefore, the God of War Dai Mubai, who was relatively clear-headed and not prone to being confused by concern, finally came up with a solution that was not really a solution. To put it bluntly, he called Oscar, Ning Rongrong, Ma Hongjun over to brainstorm.

A problem that one person can't figure out may not be something that two people can't figure out either.

A problem that two people can't figure out might not be unsolvable by three people.

A problem that three people can't figure out may not be something that a group of people can't figure out.

It is said that three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang.

Leaving aside the exaggerated descriptions used in it.

That's all I'm saying.

That's obviously correct.

However, surprisingly...

It is also disturbing that...

Only the Phoenix God Ma Hongjun arrived as scheduled!

Yes!

To date, neither Food God Oscar nor Ning Rongrong the Nine Colors Goddess have been seen!

This time, let alone Poseidon Tang San.

Even the God of War Dai Mubai.

Even Zhu Zhuqing, the God of Speed.

Even the Phoenix God Ma Hongjun was a little panicked. "No... Third Brother, Boss Dai, could something have happened to Xiao Ao and Rongrong on the way? They should have arrived by now... Those two support characters are not very good at protecting themselves. Should I go and see what happened?"

"Don't."

Although Zhu Zhuqing, the God of Speed, was merely a figurehead and her status remained unchanged even after becoming a god, she was still quite clear-headed.

Upon hearing Ma Hongjun's idea, he quickly interrupted.

Then, he voiced his concerns. "Fatty, have you considered what if this is a trap...? First, they invite Xiao Wu over, maybe nothing happens, they just lure Xiao Wu into unleashing her Asura God Power, then alert Third Brother and us, and anticipate that Mu Bai will gather everyone to discuss countermeasures. So, they ambush them on the way, capturing Rongrong and Xiao Ao first... In that case, if you go alone, it's like throwing a meat bun to a dog—a one-way trip. If you don't go, they've already captured Rongrong and Xiao Ao, weakening our fighting strength. If we go together, we might fall into their trap of luring us away, although I can't think of anything we have that would warrant such a luring..."

"Could it be control over the Divine Realm Nexus?"

Dai Mubai pondered.

Poseidon Tang San shook his head slightly.

He confidently refuted Dai Mubai's guess.

The reason is simple.

"God of Kindness is on duty today."

"God of Evil will come tomorrow."

"The day after tomorrow, me."

"God of Destruction the day after tomorrow."

"Goddess of Life after tomorrow."

"And then it will be passed on to God of Kindness."

"Perhaps it really is as Zhu Qing said, this is indeed a diversionary tactic, but it is definitely not for the sake of the control that is no longer in my hands."

Seeing his trusted Third Brother say this, Phoenix God Ma Hongjun breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had never seen the Divine Realm Nexus, it didn't mean he hadn't heard of it. It was no exaggeration to say that any one of the Five Great God Kings was invincible on the day they held control, possessing the ability to perish together with the entire Divine Realm. Even the other four of the Five Great God Kings could not contend with them, unless they joined forces.

Therefore, as long as it's not in the enemy's hands.

That is, it is in the hands of the Destruction God King.

Everything is not a problem yet.

"What worries me is... this might be the result of God of Destruction's deliberate actions!" Poseidon Tang San rejected Zhu Zhuqing's line of thought and proposed a rather mind-bending but not impossible idea, "God of Destruction wants us to think this is a diversionary tactic, thus luring us into inaction. In this way, he can divert his forces, such as the Seven Deadly Sins, to do something for him that we don't know about but that could be decisive and crush us... This is something I'm not sure about."

Zhu Zhuqing hesitated and shut her mouth.

To be honest, she's not a very good thinker.

Clarity is only relative.

It is the clarity of a normal person.

The idea proposed by Poseidon Tang San is absolutely mind-blowing.

She simply couldn't keep up.

So naturally, there's nothing more to say.

However, even the relatively clear-headed Zhu Zhuqing was unsure, let alone Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, who were less clear-headed than Zhu Zhuqing.

For a moment, the God of War Temple fell silent.

You glare at me, I glare at you.

They stared at each other, wide-eyed.

The air seemed to freeze.

Half a minute later, it was Poseidon Tang San, the instigator, who broke the atmosphere. "No, what exactly happened? Tell me, is it possible that this is what I just said?"

Dai Mubai turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing beside him.

It means you should speak first.

Let me hear your explanation before I speak.

Zhu Zhuqing isn't stupid, and besides, she didn't really have anything to say either.

So, he also turned to look at Ma Hongjun.

It means you go first.

Ma Hongjun hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not look at the Poseidon Tang San. Instead, he turned to look at Dai Mubai, his meaning clear: You are the leader of our Shrek Seven Devils, so you should set an example first.

I went around in a circle.

No one spoke up.

Even Poseidon Tang San, couldn't sit still any longer.

However, at crucial moments, Dai Mubai always manages to lend a helping hand to his good brother. He single-handedly changed the subject, saying in a deep voice, "Third Brother, I think we're focusing on the wrong thing... We shouldn't be considering what kind of scheme that guy, God of Destruction, might have. Besides, even if we did, frankly, we couldn't possibly handle it all. There's still the Asura God's group behind us. The God of Evil and God of Kindness of the Dou One Star System are Old God King, not some young couple we know who's easy to manipulate. If Asura God persists, these two Old God King might even step in to help Asura God. Then, we'll be the ones at a disadvantage... So, we should just see what God of Destruction is up to... You've always been the core of our Shrek Seven Devils, so I'll be blunt: you should give us some guidance. We can't contact Xiao Ao and the others right now, and Xiao Wu seems to be in trouble. Should we go find Xiao Ao and the others first, or go find Xiao Wu, who is suspected of being in the Life God Temple...? If we join forces, who in the world can defeat us?"

"Boss Dai is right!"

"How strong was the Spirit Hall back then?"

"But weren't they still overthrown by our combined efforts?"

"With the seven of us together, we can overcome any obstacle, even mountains of knives and seas of fire... The most urgent thing is figuring out which side to go to!"

"Looking for Xiao Ao and the others?"

"Should we look for Xiao Wu?"

"Or should we divide our forces?"

Ma Hongjun clenched his fist and slammed it into his palm.

The tone was sincere.

Without any pretense, he gave the Poseidon Tang San and the others present a pep talk.

Poseidon Tang San was also greatly encouraged.

Past glories can always inspire people to fight.

Nodding, he said in a deep voice, "You're right... Let's go find Xiao Ao and the others first. In the end, even if God of Destruction really has some kind of conspiracy, it's just to lure me in. I know God of Destruction quite well. Xiao Wu's Goddess of Life isn't in danger with him. Besides, with Goddess of Life in the Middle, Xiao Wu is even less likely to be in trouble... Let's unite all the forces we can, and then face them in full force!"

"Then let's go..." Zhu Zhuqing nodded, and in a flash, she appeared in front of the gate. With a flick of her finger, she pushed the gate open with divine power, and turned back to say, "Time waits for no one, so the sooner the better."
