"I choose to support Destruction!"
The Goddess of Life gazed at the God of Destruction with tenderness in her eyes.
She understood his temperament. If he lost today's vote, he would undoubtedly fly into a rage.
That, too, would be a disaster.
Besides, she and the God of Destruction shared an inseparable bond. Of course she could not stand by and watch him lose.
Or rather, she could not bear to see him suffer such a devastating blow. In the end, her feelings won out over her reason.
"Phew..."
After hearing the Goddess of Life's words, the God of Destruction breathed a sigh of relief.
The great stone hanging over his heart finally settled to the ground.
Truthfully, he had been terrified that the Goddess of Life would choose to support the God King of Goodness and the Evil God King.
He could not have endured that kind of stab in the back.
"Excellent. Now both sides have the same number of votes..." A satisfied smile gradually appeared on the God of Destruction's face.
He looked at the God King of Goodness and the Evil God King and continued, "Originally, all matters in the Divine Realm, great and small, were decided by us Five Great God Kings. But now the position of Asura God no longer exists. That seat will remain permanently vacant...
"So I believe we need to let the chief gods participate in this meeting as well, to make up for Asura God's absence."
In truth, the God of Destruction simply refused to let their proposals end in a tie.
If that happened, they would enter a cooling-off period and vote again after everyone had calmly considered the matter.
But...
He could not wait.
As long as Qin Xiao remained alive, his heart would never be at ease.
