If he were only an Asura God, while Gu Yuena was the Dragon God.
The Dragon God was more badass than the Asura God.
Then Gu Yuena would ride on top of him. How could he possibly accept that? Although it was nice when Gu Yuena moved on her own, he still preferred being able to pin her beneath him.
So his godhood had to be at least on the same level as the Dragon God's.
In a few days, once his strength was about right, System Lady would tell him how to become a god. By then, he figured he would be far stronger than the Asura God even if he just coasted along.
The Asura God was badass, certainly, but that was only to other people. He, Xu Ran, had lofty aspirations.
"Xu Ran, do you know what you're doing? You won't get another opportunity like this," the Asura God said angrily. He did not understand why Xu Ran would reject him.
At present, among the Five Great God Kings of the entire Divine Realm, he was the only one who wanted to step down and find a successor.
If Xu Ran did not choose him, he would have no chance of inheriting God King-level godhood. What use were those First-Level Gods and Second-Level Gods? He did not understand why Xu Ran had suddenly become so stubborn. He felt rather like iron that refused to be forged into steel.
"Of course I know. That's precisely why I'm refusing," Xu Ran said seriously. His back was ramrod straight as he resolutely refused.
"You!"
The Asura God grew furious, and a sky-piercing presence descended from him upon Xu Ran.
He hoped Xu Ran would change his mind.
This was the first time he had ever been so taken with someone.
