Divine Realm: Starting with the Broken Bone Dragon

As the opponent who crushed Tika, Jiang Mengyao was currently possessing a gargoyle and overlooking the battle.

She wouldn't waste her divine power to reveal herself unless absolutely necessary, because that costs money!

"The four-armed snake-man,"

Jiang Mengyao glanced at it, then looked at the arrows shooting from the sky.

"It's still poisonous, but running into me, aren't you at my wit's end?"

Jiang Mengyao felt a little schadenfreude.

Based on the information gathered from the gargoyle's perspective, she had determined that this divine realm was quite impressive, rich in variety, with water and plains, unlike her undead realm, which lacked everything.

With a thought, Jiang Mengyao issued a divine decree, and the gargoyles that had been prepared in the divine realm soared into the sky and rushed into the invasion passage.

The four-armed snake-men, already in complete disarray, were utterly powerless against the gargoyles' renewed attack, and within a short time, 3% of the divine realm was occupied.

Sensing the deaths of vast numbers of his familiars, Tika's demigod-like phantom appeared in the air.

She was about to say something when she suddenly noticed that all the enemies had stopped their attacks without prior notice.

"Are you a human demigod?"

A gargoyle flew in front of her and made a questioning sound.

"Yes, I am a human demigod..."

Tika said timidly, her hands unconsciously twisting together.

"Does the other party have a grudge against a human demigod? Are they already planning to insult me?"

"Speaking of which, as a human slave, I shouldn't be considered human, right? I wonder if this strange demigod will forgive me for saying all this."

"Should we beg for mercy a couple more times...?"

"I..." Tika began.

"You..." Jiang Mengyao said.

The two of them were both stunned for a moment.

"You go first." *2

"Shall I go first?" *2

"Why don't you go first?" *2

"....."

Jiang Mengyao remained silent for a moment before speaking first.

"I am also a human demigod. Since you are also a human demigod, then this whole thing is just a misunderstanding."

Jiang Mengyao glanced at the snake-man corpses scattered on the ground, calculating in her mind how much divine power she would have to pay in compensation. Just as she was about to speak, Tika finally came to her senses and excitedly said:

"You're also a human demigod? That's wonderful! My divine realm is saved!"

As Tika spoke, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, leaving Jiang Mengyao, who had no experience in comforting people, at a loss for what to do.

"What...what do we do now, Lin Fan?!"

Jiang Mengyao regained her senses and asked Lin Fan beside her anxiously.

"Simple, just say it my way!"

Lin Fan straightened his chest confidently.

"good!"

Lin Fan cleared his throat: "Stop crying."

"Don't cry."

Jiang Mengyao waited for a moment, and when she realized that Lin Fan had nothing more to say, she couldn't help but speak up.

"and then?"

"That's it? Isn't that fine? I used to... I've seen other people do it this way."

Lin Fan said blankly.

"You, ouch."

Jiang Mengyao said with exasperation, and then reappeared in front of Tika.

"Um, please don't cry..."

Jiang Mengyao was taken aback. This word... it sounds so familiar!

Tika seemed oblivious, continuing to shed tears.

"Um, about compensation..."

"I'll pay! I'll pay whatever it takes!"

Tika suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with relief.

"Compensation is good! Compensation means her divine realm can be preserved!" These words left Jiang Mengyao speechless.

"what?"

"I said I'll pay, however much you want, just don't destroy my divine realm!"

As Tika spoke, tears streamed down her face again.

"No, what I mean is, I'll compensate you..."

Jiang Mengyao said blankly.

"No, no, I'm the one who stole what you wanted. Just name your price, and I'll sell everything I own to pay you back!"

Tika quickly interrupted Jiang Mengyao, afraid that she wouldn't accept his compensation.

"I have money, and I also have over 1000 units of divine power. I can repay you once I've accumulated some more!"

"Stop, stop, stop!"

"What I mean is, I caused you harm. We are both human gods, and I should give you some compensation so you can restore the ecology of your divine realm, not that you should compensate me! If you interrupt me again, I'll..."

Jiang Mengyao stopped mid-sentence, reluctantly withdrawing her hand; it seemed she was in the wrong...

"No, no!"

Tika hurriedly waved his hand.

"I don't need you to compensate me for my losses."

She cautiously looked up, observed Jiang Mengyao's expression, and only after confirming that the other party was indeed serious did she tentatively speak:

"If you don't mind, let me follow you, or I can act as bait. We'll split any resources we encounter along the way 90/10, with me taking 10%, okay?"

Tika's eyes darted away, seemingly afraid to look Jiang Mengyao in the eye.

"Huh? Ninety-one points?"

"No, no, no, that's not true. I'll take 0.5 if I want..."

Tika shrank back, closed his eyes, and dared not look at the other person's expression.

"Ninety-one split? No need for that... The resources you salvage are yours, and the resources from the demigods I kill are mine. How about that?"

"No, no, this is too much. I don't need that much!"

Tika's eyes widened, and he hurriedly waved his hands.

Seeing Tika's cautious appearance, Jiang Mengyao couldn't help but feel sorry for her. They were both human, so what had she gone through to become like this?

"It's alright, just do as I say. It's dangerous for you to act as bait, so it's only right that the salvaged resources belong to you."

Jiang Mengyao spoke softly.

Tika cautiously opened her eyes a crack, and when she found the other person looking at her kindly, she was momentarily dazed—how long had it been since she had seen such a smile?

"good...."

If we encounter any danger, I will definitely make sure nothing happens to you.

Tika muttered to himself, his gaze lingering on Jiang Mengyao.

"Okay, since you've agreed, let's get started! Don't worry, I'm very capable, I won't let anything happen to you!"

Jiang Mengyao excitedly said something and put some of the gargoyles into the bio-card and handed them over to Tika.

"These are my familiars. You can release them after I disconnect the invasion channel. They are very powerful and can help you protect the divine realm. By the way, my name is Jiang Mengyao."

"Jiang...Mengyao..."

Tika muttered to himself and nodded slightly.

She certainly believed that Jiang Mengyao was very strong. After all, none of her many clansmen even had the chance to last a day against her before being almost wiped out.

She didn't harbor any hatred towards this. It was already good enough that her divine realm had been preserved by accident, so why think so much?

As for those deceased members of her clan, won't she return after a period of development?

and--

Her gaze followed Jiang Mengyao's departing figure.

This person is so kind...
