"This……"

Jiang Chen licked the juice off his fingers and said nonchalantly, "It's just a few fruits I ate, why are you so angry?"

"What kind of monster are you?!"

"Jiang Chen, the Corpse Ancestor, what are you doing here?!"

Gu Tianchen, who had followed closely behind Old Man Haihe, looked incredulously at the blood-stained figure eating fruit under the tree.

Jiang Chen, overjoyed to meet an old friend in a foreign land, tossed the newly picked Sun Fruit to Gu Tianchen and said, "Long time no see, Brother Tianchen. This fruit is freshly picked and quite sweet. Try it."

Before Gu Tianchen could even reach out to catch it, Hou Qing intercepted it from the air, snatched it, and took a bite without any hesitation.

"Mmm, plump and juicy, tastes good."

Jiang Chen then took out a burning Sun Fruit and handed it to Gu Tianchen.

"It's okay, I've picked all the fruit from this tree, and you can eat as much as you want."

Gu Tianchen sensed the intense heat emanating from the fruit and quickly used the Heavenly Divine Fire to suppress its fiery aura.

Jiang Chen looked at Best and the others behind Gu Tianchen and asked with a smile, "Are these all your friends? Come, come, everyone has a share, don't be shy."

Seeing that the sacred fruit of the sun, which he had painstakingly protected, was completely devoured by Jiang Chen and distributed to others to enjoy, Old Man Haihe suddenly became so enraged that he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"puff!"

The blood shot through the air in a graceful parabola, like a rainbow hanging on the mountaintop.

Jiang Chen looked at old man Haihe with concern, "Old man, are you alright? Would you like to eat some fruit to calm your nerves?"

"I'll eat your grandma's leg!" Old Haihe was on the verge of tears.

"What's wrong with your friend? I kindly offered him some fruit, why did he curse at me?" Jiang Chen asked Gu Tianchen, completely bewildered.

Gu Tianchen said with a smile, "Jiang Chen, the Corpse Ancestor, don't misunderstand, he is not my friend. I came to kill him, but unfortunately this old man is quite difficult to kill. My uncle Hou Qing and I tried for a long time but failed. Even the power of laws could not kill him."

"I see you've really angered him. Why don't you say a few more words and see if you can just drive this old man to his death?"

While eating the Sun Fruit, Jiang Chen looked at Gu Tianchen and asked, "Are you going to kill this old man?"

"Yes, it's a pity he can't be killed," Gu Tianchen said with some disappointment.

Jiang Chen casually tossed aside the fruit he had finished eating and said unhurriedly, "Who said this old man was hard to kill? This old man is too easy to kill."

Chapter 275 Under the Divine Tree

Upon hearing Jiang Chen's words, old man Haihe's heart skipped a beat, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.

But he still pretended to be calm as he looked at Jiang Chen and asked with a smile, "Hehe, even your friend's powerful law power can't kill me, so what can you do to me?"

Jiang Chen looked at old man Haihe, and then, under his feigned relaxed expression, looked at the enormous divine tree.

When Jiang Chen looked at the divine tree, old man Haihe felt utterly hopeless.

Oh no, Barbie Q is gone...

"The reason the power of laws can't kill you is because you're not a god at all!"

Jiang Chen pointed to the divine tree not far away and said with a smile, "If I'm not mistaken, you must be some kind of tree spirit or something similar to this divine tree."

“I can clearly feel that this divine tree is of the same origin as you. You are like a projection of this divine tree. No matter how many times I kill this projection, it will be useless.”

"The reason you vomited blood just now was not because you were so angry, but because I picked a large amount of the Sun Fruit, which caused you to suffer a backlash."

"In other words, as long as this divine tree is destroyed, your projection will also disappear. Old man, am I right?"

Old man Haihe sighed, remained silent, and tacitly accepted the fact.

Gu Tianchen clapped his hands wildly and looked at Jiang Chen in shock, saying, "Wow, my uncle said you were a blockhead and had no brains, but I didn't expect you to be so different after just three days. Eating the Sun Fruit really makes a difference. Your IQ has skyrocketed!"

Jiang Chen looked at Hou Qing with displeasure and asked, "Is this how you talk about me in front of the younger generation?"

Hou Qing slapped Gu Tianchen on the back of the head and said with a smile, "Don't listen to the child's nonsense. We four Corpse Ancestors are as close as brothers. How could I talk bad about you behind your back?"

Jiang Chen looked at Hou Qing's perfunctory smile with disbelief.

Hou Qing quickly changed the subject.

"Wait a minute, I just destroyed the entire mountain, but it still reappeared. How can I destroy this divine tree?"

Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Only the laws can counter the laws, and only the divine tree can destroy the divine tree."

"This divine tree has absorbed abundant spiritual energy from heaven and earth and possesses powerful vitality. Only by draining all of its vitality can it be completely destroyed."

"The greatness of life lies in its continuous renewal; if it is not uprooted, it can never be destroyed."

Old Man Haihe looked at Jiang Chen and asked with a wry smile, "Why do you know so much about this Sun Tree?"

Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Actually, in a sense, we are quite similar, both being products of the divine tree."

"Perhaps it was destined from the beginning that you, the spirit of the divine tree, would fall into my hands."

Old Man Haihe chuckled and said, "Hehe, I never imagined that I wasn't the only spirit of the divine tree in this world. I'm old and tired."

"Young man, carry on with my life force."

"The heart is like a flower or tree, growing towards the sun. Let the seeds of life drift with the wind. Even without the sun, life itself can take root and sprout."

Dense vines and branches began to sprout from Jiang Chen's body, wrapping around the Sun God Tree and frantically absorbing its life force.

As the life force of the divine tree dissipated, Old Man Haihe gradually faded into nothingness, disappearing into the void and drifting away with the wind...

"Our Great Xia's divine tree, Jianmu, is truly amazing; it took care of this old man so quickly," Gu Tianchen said, giving Jiang Chen a thumbs up.

Jiang Chen shook his head and said seriously, "It's not that Jianmu is powerful, but that this divine tree's life is nearing its end."

"It absorbed too much mist to protect the humans behind it and won't live much longer. I'm just giving it a dignified departure."

Everyone fell silent.

"Oh, right, there was something under the sacred tree that I brought up with me."

Jiang Chen slightly beckoned, and several vines bound a human-shaped object, which was then flung out of the huge pit and landed in front of everyone.

Gu Tianchen asked with a curious look, "What is this thing? Is it a mummy?"

Best glared at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. We don't have the custom of burying mummies under trees."

"Oh, what's the point of guessing? Just open it and see."

Sobek immediately used his hands, employing his sharp crocodile claws to quickly pry open the vines.

The vine broke in the middle, revealing a beautiful young girl.

Her eyes were closed. She was stunningly beautiful, with skin as white as milk and jet-black, glossy hair adorned with horn-shaped ornaments that shone brilliantly.

She wore a necklace shaped like bull horns around her neck, which looked ancient and mysterious.

Looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, Gu Tianchen thought of the previous eight Yuan Gods, who all appeared in pairs as husband and wife.

"Oh, I see. This is old man Haihe's wife. She's also an Eighth-Rank God, right?" Gu Tianchen looked at Best and the others with a confident expression.

Best turned away awkwardly, Sobek shook his head frantically, and Anubis looked at Horus with a half-smile.

Horus said with a grim expression, "This is my wife."

"what???"

Gu Tianchen looked completely bewildered and at a loss for what to do.

Best quickly smoothed things over, saying, "This is Hathor, Horus's wife, the Egyptian goddess of love and beauty, who was skilled in music and dance."

Gu Tianchen smiled sheepishly at Horus and said, "Hehe, Brother Eagle, sorry, it's Sister-in-law Eagle. You've done the splits."

"Thinking about it, it makes sense. My sister-in-law is so beautiful, only a young man as wise and brave as him can be worthy of her beauty."

Horus stepped forward and gently lifted Hathor's body, trying to wake her up.

But no matter how Horus called her name, Hathor did not respond, as if she were in an endless slumber.

Jiang Chen stepped forward and said, "She must have absorbed a lot of life force and fallen into a deep sleep. Once I re-inject life force into her, she will wake up."

Horus nodded to his general, "Thank you for your trouble."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, "Hey, it was just a small thing."

A blood-red vine flew out from Jiang Chen's wrist and wrapped around Hator's wrist, beginning to infuse it with rich life force.

A moment later, Hathor's fingers twitched slightly, showing signs of waking up.

"Hey, it's reacting."

Hathor slowly opened his eyes, looking at Horus in front of him with a confused expression.

"who are you?"

Gu Tianchen asked with a puzzled look, "Brother Ying, isn't she your wife? How come you don't even recognize her?"

"Oh no! Get out of the way!"

Horus's expression changed, and he quickly shouted.

Chapter 276 The Mad Couple

Before Gu Tianchen could react, the quick-handed catgirl pulled him away.

boom!

A powerful divine might surged into the sky, instantly shattering the Sun Holy Mountain, which had lost the protection of the divine tree!

Rocks flew everywhere, dust billowed, and all the gods were suspended in the air.

Amidst the smoke and dust, a blood-red figure emerged, radiating a soaring killing intent.

She had long, wavy golden hair, wore a blood-red dress, and her sharp claws gleamed with a cold light. Her eyes were filled with murderous intent, and she saw everyone as prey.

However, that beautiful face was still Hathor's, only less gentle and sweet, and more alluring and seductive.

Gu Tianchen asked with a puzzled look, "Wait, what's up with Brother Ying's wife? Is she doing some kind of cross-dressing game here?"

Best explained, “Hattor has a rare disease, which you would call a split personality.”

"One is the image of a gentle and kind goddess of love and beauty, who loves music and dance, and has two cow-horn-like hair ornaments on her head. Her divine image is also that of a cow."
