Godlike: From Fake to Real, Lord of the Gods

Chapter 17 Are you threatening me?

……

However, Si Yao's silence and calmness were seen by the bewildered Morgana as the deathly stillness before a storm, a prelude to an even more terrifying attack!

We can't just sit here and wait to die!

Morgana's mind raced, a glint of ruthlessness and cunning flashing in her eyes. She abruptly looked up at the three angels watching the battle from the sky!

"Bitch! Trying to trick me?!"

She roared, and a giant demonic claw flew out of thin air, grabbing at the angels Zhui and Moi in mid-air with lightning speed!

Angel Yan reacted extremely quickly, dodging to the side, but due to the distance and the momentary shock, Zhui and Mo Yi were firmly gripped by the huge demon claw!

"Hey! You silver-haired bastard!" Morgana, holding two angel warriors hostage, yelled at Si Yao, "If you dare move another inch, I'll crush these two little bitches right now!"

"Si Yao! Don't worry about us!" Angel Chase shouted immediately, her eyes remaining resolute even though she was imprisoned. "Destroying the demons is more important!"

"Yes! We must uphold justice without hesitation!" Angel Moy shouted immediately afterward.

They are ready to sacrifice themselves for justice.

However, Si Yao's reaction surprised everyone.

He tilted his head slightly, glancing at the two captured angels with an expression as if they were fools, then looked back at Morgana, his tone carrying an undisguised sense of absurdity:

"You arrested them, so why should I not do anything?"

The scene instantly fell into an eerie silence.

Morgana was stunned, and even her grip on the angel's demonic claws loosened slightly.

Atto held his sword, somewhat at a loss.

Even the angels Zhui and Moyi, who were preparing to die a martyr, were stunned and stared blankly at Si Yao.

Angel Yan hovered in the air, her lips twitching slightly, unsure of what expression to make.

Morgana was a little stunned, and almost blurted out, "You...you guys aren't in cahoots?!"

Si Yao raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly finding the question rather pointless: "When did I ever say that I was in cahoots with them?"

He paused, his gaze sweeping again over Morgana and the "hostage" in her hands, his tone remaining calm:

"I only promised to help them kill the little bugs that have come back to life here, but..."

Before he could finish speaking, Si Yao's eyes suddenly narrowed!

A mental pressure far more turbulent and chilling than before erupted like a tangible tsunami!

The colorless realm that had just begun to subside instantly expanded and solidified again around him!

This time, not only were colors stripped away, but sound was also swallowed up.

The space seemed to have been plunged into an extremely cold icy abyss, completely frozen!

The air was as thick as permafrost, every speck of dust suspended in mid-air. The light was no longer merely dim, but completely frozen, forming a suffocating realm of absolute stillness.

Apart from Morgana, who was able to move with her powerful fourth-generation divine body and Angel Yan, who was on guard in the air, the others, including the loyal Ato who was preparing to fight to the death, and the few remaining near-third-generation demons beside him, suddenly became like a movie scene in slow motion a thousand times. Every tiny movement became extremely difficult, as if they were carrying a mountain on their backs!

The dark energy shields around them, which resisted the corruption of the Ksitigarbha Realm, flickered under this sudden and intensified suppression, like candles in the wind, and the rate of decay of their bodies visibly accelerated!

Si Yao's gaze was like two icicles piercing Morgana. For the first time, his previously calm tone carried a distinct and chilling coldness that sent shivers down one's spine.

Are you threatening me?

These five words are no longer a question, but a declaration. They declare that a certain boundary has been touched, and a certain dormant majesty has been awakened.

Morgana felt the space around her squeezing in, an invisible force trying to freeze her as well.

Alarm bells rang in her mind; this guy... he really hadn't used his full strength just now!

What horrified her even more was his attitude. His eyes, his tone, made it seem as if her act of holding an angel hostage to threaten him was an unforgivable blasphemy.

"I..." Morgana opened her mouth, wanting to say something harsh, but found that even her thoughts seemed to be slowed down under the suppression of this terrifying domain.

Her act of taking the angel hostage not only failed to restrain him, but instead stirred up a hornet's nest, enraging this sleeping beast!

As she looked into Si Yao's emotionless, icy blue eyes, an absurd yet chilling thought flashed through her mind.

This guy probably really doesn't care about the angel's life or death at all! He only took action because the act of being "threatened" itself angered him!

What the hell did this ancient monster crawl out of?! Doesn't it even have a basic understanding of interests and factionalism?!

Angel Chase and Moi, who were caught by the demon's claws, felt unprecedented pressure. They even had difficulty breathing, but their eyes shone with a more complex light.

Si Yao's sudden outburst of rage was not to save them, but because of the "threat" posed by the Demon King. This made them realize more clearly the uncontrollability and danger of this "ally".

Angel Yan gripped the flaming sword tightly, her expression extremely solemn.

She finally understood that Si Yao's previous "easygoing" and "cooperative" behavior might simply be because they hadn't crossed his bottom line.

At this moment, Morgana's foolish threat stepped on a landmine that had been buried for who knows how deep.

Si Yao took a step forward.

The solidified space creaked under the weight of his footsteps.

He ignored the demons, including Ator, who were almost frozen in place and struggling, and fixed his gaze solely on Morgana.

"It seems," he said slowly, his voice like ancient ice rubbing against each other, "that you, like these uncivilized monkeys, lack a bit of... manners."

An invisible pressure surged toward Morgana like a tidal wave, and the space around her emitted a faint sound, as if glass were about to shatter.

Morgana's expression changed drastically. She knew that if she stayed any longer, she might not be able to leave!

"withdraw!!"

With all her might, she let out a sharp roar, no longer caring about the dignity of a demon queen. She suddenly activated all the dark energy in her body, forcibly tearing apart the solidified space around her. She grabbed the last few demons, her figure instantly blurring. In an almost disheveled state, she hurriedly fled into the micro-wormhole and disappeared.

The demonic claws that had seized Angel Chase and Moy vanished instantly as Morgana fled.

The colorless realm slowly faded, and color and sound returned to this ravaged land.

Si Yao stood there, looking in the direction where Morgana had disappeared. A hint of weariness flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly covered by a deeper coldness.

He turned around, his gaze sweeping over the angels Zhui and Mo Yi, who had just escaped and were still in shock, as well as the angel Yan who was slowly descending. His tone returned to its previous calm:

"You've finished squeezing the bugs. Remember to settle your payment."
