After the Water God's vast, deep-blue ocean receded, the pure-white space became a stage for a fleeting parade of spectacles.
Gales swept past with yellow sand in their wake, dense masses of earth and stone formed and collapsed, and ultimate light and fathomless darkness tore through the vault overhead in succession.
Several Main Gods took turns appearing like figures in a revolving lantern, each delivering a declaration of law and displaying the breathtaking power underlying their Godhood before departing without hesitation.
Huo Yuhao watched another new deity appear before him.
The ninth.
He silently counted in his mind.
This time, the one who appeared was a handsome man.
Unlike the previous Main Gods, he did not make an entrance with some grand spectacle of burning heavens and boiling seas or world-ending thunder. He simply stood there calmly.
"I am the God of Emotion."
The man looked at the boy below and announced his title in an even tone.
Huo Yuhao was just about to take a closer look at this newly arrived deity when an inexplicable wave of disgust abruptly surged through him.
The revulsion came without warning, as though his body instinctively rejected the person before him.
He took a step back without thinking.
But the moment he took that step, the disgust rapidly fermented, turning into unbearable nausea in the blink of an eye.
His stomach churned like an overturned sea, and his throat tightened along with it.
He knitted his brows tightly, his gaze settling on the God of Emotion as resentment gradually filled his eyes.
Unprovoked anger rushed straight to his head. He did not even want to consider the gap in strength between himself and a god; he only wanted to charge forward immediately and land a few solid punches on that handsome face.
