Chapter 771: Vol V Chapter 131

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The God of Aristocracy was unexpectedly hit hard in their own church. There were countless casualties among the followers, but yet, the God of Aristocracy had stepped up to become a great Divine Power. This was certainly a great shock to the other gods.

Generally speaking, if a church was hit hard, resulting in countless casualties among its followers, this would have a negative impact on its god. Though it would not directly cause damage to the god’s divinity, a substantial amount of divinity would inevitably be reduced. If the strategy was not timely adjusted to recover the loss, the next step would often be the impairment of divinity, or even the reduction of divinity.

So in the war of gods, attacking one another’s churches and eliminating each other’s followers were commonly used means that had always been proved to be effective.

However, the God of Aristocracy had gone contrariwise to this rule. In such a situation where they were supposed to be significantly injured, not only were they unharmed, but they had even become stronger than before.

This situation baffled all the gods. Sui Xiong was no exception.

This was just like a person being hit by his enemy to the point of sustaining lesions to his internal organs or sustaining major damage to his body. Or like breaking more than 50% of his bones—but yet, he did not crumble and collapse. On the contrary, he would bring about an eruption of a small universe. With one strike of his Pegasus Meteor Fist, he would batter his enemies, who were originally much more powerful than him, until they became nothing more than meteors in the sky.

Wait a minute. There seemed to be nothing wrong with this…

As he contemplated this example, Sui Xiong could not help but freeze in bewilderment.

Naturally, the God of Aristocracy would also be able to do what others could. And being a master who was at the peak of the mid-level Divine Power, there was no reason why they would be inferior to a mere Pegasus Knight. Something such as this outburst of power to achieve a breakthrough happening to then—was it really worth feeling puzzled and shocked?

This did not seem to be the case.

In that case… there’s nothing to feel puzzled about.

Though having said that, they were still extremely displeased.

Acts like this outburst of power were supposed to be the privilege of hot-blooded youths who courageously tread the path of saving the world with the desire to uphold love and justice. How could this representative of the evil powers, the God of Aristocracy, actually be able to achieve this? This fellow seemed more like the villainous boss who was bombarded to death by the outburst of power of the hot-blooded youths.

There had to be something wrong with heaven’s eye!

After some lamentation, Sui Xiong started to contemplate the influence of this matter.

The promotion to a great Divine Power would mean that the God of Aristocracy’s power was greatly increased. Their right to speech within the Human God System would also greatly strengthen. Though even with their power greatly increased, they were still no match for Sui Xiong. Even if they had a greater right of speech, the Human God System was still a place ruled by the God of Light’s voice alone.

Come to think of it, other than being beneficial to them, their promotion seemed to have limited effect…

Thinking of this, Sui Xiong could not help laughing.

There were also others who were tickled by this. The Legendary Masters of the Mifata Federation were laughing too.

“This is really beyond my imagination. That god could actually be promoted to a great Divine Power under such a situation… how on earth did they do it?”

“Who knows… Anyway, no matter what, it has nothing to do with us.”

“Yeah, so what if they’re great Divine Power? At most, from now on, we’ll not venture out to the Main Plane and huddle together. I don’t believe they’ll be able to kill a dozen Legendary Masters at once!”

With that, the Legendary Masters all laughed.

In truth, there were traces of unease in their smiles. But under the current situation, they had pulled out their bows and arrows. There was no way they could turn back. They had killed people and destroyed cities. Even if they were to bow their heads and beg for pardon, would the God of Aristocracy forgive them?

What kind of dream was this in such broad daylight!

Moreover, even if the God of Aristocracy were to indicate a willingness to forgive them, would they dare believe so?

Haha, they were not to be treated like some children who lacked experience in the real world!

So after some consideration and discussion, they ended up deciding not to bow down and concede defeat before the God of Aristocracy. On the contrary, they stepped up their game with increasing intensity. Not only would they eliminate the belief in the God of Aristocracy from within the Mifata Federation, they even intended to do so in the Duchy of Thunder and the Dhaka Commercial Association.

Even to the point of… Their plan was to spend a hundred years or even a much longer period to completely wipe out the belief in the God of Aristocracy on the Main Plane!

Since they were going to shed all pretense of friendliness, then they should simply be thorough and absolute. Anyway, no matter what, it was impossible for a person to die more than once, right?

A majority of the Legendary Masters did not feel that they would have to chance to become too powerful to remain on the Main Plane. Even if there came the day where they were no longer able to stay on the Main Plane, they could still choose to live in hell or seek refuge with gods who expressed hostility towards the God of Aristocracy. So even if the God of Aristocracy were to become a great Divine Power, the effect it had on them was, in fact… very limited.

Take a realistic example for instance. The God of Justice and Courage, Yorgaardman, was a great Divine Power. He was also one of the top-notch masters among the great Divine Powers. But his followers were persecuted and wanted in many places. In many districts, so long as they revealed themselves to be his followers, they would have to flee as quickly as they could, or they might lose their lives.

Was it because the God of Justice was not powerful enough? Of course not.

Was it because the God of Justice did not strike often enough? Also not the case.

It was only because this was related to everyone’s interest. To protect their own interests, they would not care even if they had to go fight against a great Divine Power.

In fact, something like that was not terrifying at all. The Eagle Kingdom had been at odds with the various Orc gods for so many years, and yet, they were never exterminated by the Orc gods.

The gods worked by rules. Of course, they could also try not to observe discipline. But so long as the Master of Order was around, those who made such attempts would basically find themselves dead on the streets. Over time, there was not a single person left with a death wish.

It was just like how Sui Xiong was so strong that theoretically, all the countries in the mortal world put together would still not be his match. However, the truth was that these countries did not buy into Sui Xiong’s power and paid no heed to him. The reason was that if Sui Xiong truly used force as a means to torment the countries, though they were no match for him, the Master of Order would most probably step in to intervene.

Regarding this, Javier, Yorgaardman and company had reminded Sui Xiong on more than one occasion.

“The Master of Order doesn’t like gods personally dealing with the mortals.”

“It’s okay if you do this once in a while, but don’t make it too obvious.”

“It’s fine if you are targeting a certain human or organization, but never ever target a certain country.”

“Why are you always prepared to court death? It’s really worrying to think about how you’ll eventually kill yourself one day!”

Such words were nothing new to him. He heard them so often that his ears might have developed an immunity to their naggings.

Oh, a jellyfish did not have ears. What a pity.

But in truth, Sui Xiong was also quite confident of himself.

If the Master of Order truly had something to say about his way of doing things, by right, he would have warned Sui Xiong or restricted Sui Xiong from entering the Main Plane. Up till now, the Master of Order had not made a clear stand. This meant that what Sui Xiong had done so far was still within the limit of his tolerance or might even resonate with his ideas.

In this case, what was there for Sui Xiong to be afraid of?

If there came a day where the Master of Order expressed objection to his doings or even ordered him to leave the Main Plane, what would he do?

A wise man would not contend. When it was time to admit defeat, he should take things in stride and admit as such. It was just that… if Sui Xiong were to leave the Main Plane and as a result, other countries came forth to deal with the Republic of Northwest, then there would be no one blaming him for not playing by the rules.

Even the Master of Order was unable to make him out to be a coward who sat on the sidelines.

For a figure like the God of Aristocracy, who simply watched their church receive a hard blow and a large number of followers being cruelly killed, Sui Xiong showed nothing but outright disdain!
