Sea God's Twilight ultimately claimed victory, but the entire Divine Arena had all but collapsed.
Seeing this, Lan Yu took out another Ice-shroom. With a crack, the entire ice field froze solid once more.
Bo Saixi was also somewhat drained after using Sea God's Twilight. Insufficient reserves of divine power were a common problem for newly ascended gods who had never visited the Divine Realm. In other words, they could not sustain a war of attrition.
"Angel God Qian Renxue, Seagod Bo Saixi, do either of you still refuse to accept defeat?"
Lan Yu's voice reached their ears, and the two women rolled their eyes at him in perfect unison.
Lan Yu's expression, however, remained utterly serious.
"This is a question you must answer. If you refuse to submit, I'll have to get serious and use a few measures.
"I'll say it again: everyone across the Douluo Continent, as well as the Divine Realm, can see your every move right now."
Lan Yu had made himself clear enough. Qian Renxue and Bo Saixi realized that he wanted them to declare their submission.
Though Qian Renxue and Bo Saixi felt deeply uncomfortable, the fact remained that they were outmatched.
Of course, they could remain defiant to the bitter end, but then Bibi Dong's fate would be theirs.
Their relationships with Lan Yu were decent, but hardly intimate. In a struggle over faith, he could not possibly give them much preferential treatment.
Once she understood this, Bo Saixi decisively chose to submit.
"I concede. From this day forward, the Sea God's people shall honor the Sage Lord of Fungi above all."
Seeing how well Bo Saixi understood which way the wind was blowing, Lan Yu nodded at her in satisfaction.
"Very good. You won't regret today's decision. Your turn, Qian Renxue."
