"What do you mean by that?"
The Destruction God's expression changed.
The Life God answered indifferently, "I just want to tell you that I will indulge your impulsive behavior one more time.
From now on, I hope you will not act arbitrarily. You are one of the most influential people in the Divine Realm, and you must consider the overall situation in all that you do.
Every word and action must be responsible to yourself and the other gods."
As her words fell, the Destruction God's face turned ugly, "Are you suggesting that I don't think about the big picture?"
The Life God replied impartially, "I just feel that the proposals of the Kindness God and the Evil God seem to be more prudent, the Divine Realm does not need war."
"Ask yourself, do you really want to get rid of Qin Xiao because he will harm the Divine Realm?"
After the Life God's voice trailed off, a brief silence fell upon the great hall.
The Seven Sins Gods all turned their gazes towards the Destruction God.
Knowing he could not remain silent, the Destruction God struggled inwardly before letting out a long sigh, "I will seriously consider what you've said... but, all of this will have to wait until after Qin Xiao is dead..."
"Let's go," said the Life God, nodding slightly.
The Destruction God then waved his hand and opened a spatial rift, which led to the other side, a blue-colored planet.
"I'll go first!"
The God of Wrath charged into the spatial passage.
The Life God's gaze flickered as she too stepped within.
Then the God of Gluttony, the God of Pride, and others followed suit.
Soon, only the Destruction God and the God of Sloth remained in the great hall.
"God of Sloth, do you have something to say to me?" the Destruction God asked, tilting his head slightly.
"My lord, I indeed have some thoughts..." the God of Sloth answered hesitantly.
The Destruction God frowned slightly, "Speak plainly."
"I think we need to make some preparations."
"Finish what you're saying."
"That is, I think we can take advantage of Qin Xiao's relatives and meddle with them, coercing Qin Xiao into committing a wrongdoing."
After saying this, the God of Sloth carefully observed the Destruction God's expression.
It wasn't until the Destruction God showed no sign of anger or dissatisfaction that he eased his mind.
But the next moment, he heard the Destruction God ask somberly, "But I am the Divine King of the Divine Realm, how can I stoop to such dirty deeds?"
Upon hearing this, the God of Sloth's heart leapt with joy—wasn't this the opportunity he'd been waiting for?
He replied earnestly, "My lord, I am willing to undertake any task for you, no matter how humble."
The Destruction God's expression flickered, "Let's go."
With those words, he too stepped into the spatial passage.
The God of Sloth's face shifted—his lord had neither agreed nor disagreed, right?
That was as good as acquiescence.
Indeed, as the Divine King, he would naturally not stoop to discussing such sordid matters with his subordinates.
But as a competent subordinate, one ought to understand his lord's intentions.
It must be said, the God of Sloth was indeed very perceptive.
Afterwards, he pulled out a palm-sized figurine from the space he carried on him.
This figurine, dressed in Battle Armor and looking majestic, when looked at closely, bore a striking resemblance to the God of Sloth himself.
Without a doubt, this item was extraordinary; it was a powerful Divine Artifact, as well as an avatar.
Once imbued with Divine Power, this figurine could unleash a combat force comparable to that of a Second-level God.
In his view, it was more than enough to deal with the riffraff on Soul Land.
After tossing the figurine into the spatial passage, he then stepped through.
...
"God of Sloth, what have you been doing? Why have you only arrived now?"
Seeing the God of Sloth stepping out of the spatial passage last, the God of Wrath spoke somewhat angrily.
Off to the side, the God of Pride arrogantly curled his lip, "God of Sloth, you've gone too far. Even at a time like this, you slack off and hold everyone back."
"Hehe, I got a bit carried away for a moment..."
The God of Sloth chuckled awkwardly.
Of course, he couldn't reveal his plan.
His heart, however, was full of frustration.
Would these folks be shocked when he achieved his goal?
```
Just thinking about it is amusing.
"Alright, now that everyone has arrived, let's set out..."
At this moment, the cold voice of the Destruction God echoed in everyone's ears.
The gods hastily shut their mouths and followed the Destruction God, approaching the Douluo Planet.
Before long.
They came to a halt.
Wherever they looked, a young man was actually lying leisurely in a rocking chair outside the Douluo Planet.
"Qin Xiao!"
A glimmer of cold light flashed in the eyes of the Destruction God as he stared at that figure, speaking coldly, "I didn't expect you to have such courage, daring to wait here alone?"
Was this person Qin Xiao?
The formidable foe that even the Destruction God King couldn't handle?
The Life God and the Seven Deadly Sins Gods were moved.
Their gazes were a mix of doubt and curiosity.
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao also sat up from the rocking chair, opening his sleepy eyes and rubbing them with his hand.
The Destruction God asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean by this?"
In reality, he already had a bad premonition in his heart. Qin Xiao definitely wasn't harboring any good intentions.
On the other hand, Qin Xiao had started counting heads.
"123...789, huh, I'm not mistaken, there really are 9 people."
Qin Xiao was somewhat surprised, "You, as the mighty Destruction God King, went back to your homeland to rally people and only brought so few? Where are the rest of the gods from the Divine Realm?"
The gods: "..."
So this guy even thinks there are too few of them.
The Destruction God's face turned even greener with anger; this fellow really didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth!
Did he really think the Life God and himself, two Divine Kings, were made of mud?
Or did he consider the Seven Deadly Sins Gods to be air?
9 against 1, and he still thought it wasn't enough?
This was simply outrageous.
"My lord, this person is really too arrogant, I can't hold back any longer."
The God of Wrath roared and charged out directly from behind the Destruction God.
His entire body was glowing, a sign of Divine Power being mobilized to its limit.
In an instant, a giant hammer appeared in his hands.
He then swung the hammer down towards Qin Xiao's head.
"Overestimating your own abilities!"
Qin Xiao sneered disdainfully.
True to his title as the God of Wrath, wasn't he a bit too hot-headed?
Your master doesn't even dare to confront me like this, where did you get the courage?
"God of Wrath, come back!"
The Destruction God urgently shouted, even trying to intervene.
But it was already too late.
Electric light flickered around Qin Xiao as an ancient-looking set of battle armor enveloped his body.
An extremely ancient and powerful aura swept out from Qin Xiao, spreading in all directions.
Without a doubt, this armor was the Thunder Emperor's Armor.
But that wasn't all.
Qin Xiao clasped his hands together, and the Heaven-splitting Halberd that was on his fingers instantly enlarged.
He held the Heaven Saint Crack Abyss in both hands and fiercely slashed at the God of Wrath.
With a crack, the giant hammer in the hands of the God of Wrath was split into two halves.
Everyone was stunned; his combat strength was so formidable?
He had caught the full-force attack of a Level One God with such apparent ease?
But.
The situation was far from over.
In the next moment, a long line of blood appeared at the center of the God of Wrath's forehead.
Under the gaze of the other gods, his body split into two along that line of blood...
The God of Wrath was actually slain with a single strike...
The scene before everyone's eyes brought a strong shock to all the gods.
They knew Qin Xiao was powerful, but they had not expected him to be this overwhelmingly powerful!
To kill a Level One God in a second, even the Life God and the Destruction God at the God King realm couldn't come close to doing.
"Lord..."
The remaining six original sin gods all turned their gaze to the Destruction God.
The Destruction God's face underwent several changes before he said coldly, "He's stronger than before, or rather, this might be his true strength..."
He felt deceived, as the power Qin Xiao displayed at this moment was much greater than when they had fought against each other.
"Ah, thinking of leaving?"
Just then, Qin Xiao let out a light call that startled everyone.
They all looked over to see Qin Xiao reaching out to grab the godhood of the God of Wrath in his hand. Then, with a backhanded sweep, he stored it away.
To kill the God of Wrath and then take away his godhood... This was simply unforgivable!
It was a disgrace of the highest order!
The eyes of the six original sin gods were practically shooting fire.
If looks could kill, Qin Xiao would already have died thousands of times over.
"All gods heed my command, attack together!"
The Destruction God issued the order solemnly, then turned to look at the Life God, "Little Green, our safety is in your hands now."
The Life God couldn't help but be startled for a moment.
She couldn't remember how long it had been since the Destruction God had called her that.
Of course.
She also couldn't remember how long it had been since she last called the Destruction God Little Purple.
"I will assist you with all my might," she said, nodding gently, her voice soft yet firm.
The Destruction God withdrew his gaze and when he looked at Qin Xiao again, his eyes were filled with a crazed intent to kill, "Silence Annihilation Divine Thunder!"
He violently pushed forward with both hands, and countless strands of purple-black Divine Thunders struck at Qin Xiao from all directions.
The speed of these Divine Thunders was extremely fast, and they instantly arrived in front of Qin Xiao.
Seeing their master had made a move, the six original sin gods no longer held back and launched their strongest attacks as well.
In an instant, Divine Power surged like tidal waves, causing vast expanses of Space to collapse.
On Douluo Planet, countless people were struck with terror, as they discovered a pitch-black void had appeared in the clear sky, like an abyss capable of swallowing all things, making one's heart palpitate.
Many children pointed at the void and exclaimed in shock, "The sky has a hole in it."
...
The battlefield of the gods stretched untold distances.
The six original sin gods, under the lead of the Destruction God, were battling against Qin Xiao.
Only the Life God stood far apart, constantly watching the changing situation of the battle.
Boom.
With a loud roar, a purple thunderbolt shot out from the darkness of the void.
She saw clearly that the God of Sloth was within this thunderbolt, his face showing pain and ferocity.
In the chest of the God of Sloth was a huge wound, almost splitting his torso in two.
Noting this change, the Life God's expression shifted, showing a compassionate demeanor, as she brought her hands together in front of her chest and gently waved them towards the God of Sloth, "I bestow upon you my blessing!"
As her gentle voice sounded, a stream of emerald light, full of the essence of life, dispersed from her hands onto the body of the God of Sloth.
The massive wound on the God of Sloth's chest closed at a visible rate.
In just a moment's breath, he was healed.
"Thanks for the Divine King's healing!"
The God of Sloth, now healed, bowed gratefully towards the Life God.
The Life God nodded slightly, "Qin Xiao is extremely powerful, be very careful."
The God of Sloth responded with a solemn "Yes," before returning to the battlefield.
What he didn't know was that after he left, the Life God's delicate body swayed slightly, and her complexion turned a shade paler.
"Who would've thought, the damage inflicted by Qin Xiao is so difficult to heal. To bestow a blessing just once on the God of Sloth has cost me 20% of my Divine Power," she contemplated with a start.
Under normal circumstances, healing the God of Sloth's injuries would've consumed only one-tenth of her Divine Power.
But the actual consumption was twice what she had anticipated.
"If it goes on like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on much longer.
Little Purple and the others must make it quick!"
Worry filled the brows of the Life God.
Boom.
Just then, another purple thunderbolt erupted from the depths of the black Space, this time blasting out the God of Pride.
The Life God noticed the God of Pride was in a terrible state as well.
His divine armor was shattered, and his left leg was missing.
His right hand hung limply, swaying feebly with his motion, utterly powerless.
Clearly, his injuries were grave.
Seeing this, the Life God did not hesitate, using the same method as before. She brought her hands together in front of her chest and with a wave, an emerald light filled with the essence of life touched the God of Pride.
Before her eyes, the injuries on the God of Pride visibly healed, and even his missing left leg began to regenerate.
But the Life God's face grew increasingly pale, and by the time the God of Pride was healed, her face had lost all color.
Thirty percent!
This time she had used up a full 30% of her Divine Power just to heal the God of Pride.
Yet that wasn't what worried her the most, it was the future.
"If I have to heal one or two more like this, I might not be able to act anymore," she thought anxiously.
Because she understood, the moment her Divine Power was exhausted, that would be when the gods would fall.
