Divina's words instantly brought everyone back to their senses from the shock of the phantom seraph.

But when they noticed Divina's posture, everyone was first stunned, and then shock crept onto their faces.

Even the succubus queen Mechanshute, who had been following Divina the whole time, couldn't help but show surprise when she looked at Divina bowing gracefully.

If Divina were simply visiting, then as a guest, even if she were of noble status, it wouldn't be a big problem for her to greet the host.

However, she is not a guest at the moment. The reason she is able to attend this grand ceremony is because Behemoth has been suppressed by Luo Tian, ​​who is using this to coerce her, the daughter of the abyss, to participate in this ceremony.

Regardless of whether Luo Tian's purpose was a demonstration or a negotiation, this attitude already determined that the two sides were on opposing sides.

From the perspective of opposing identities, Divina should never have bowed to Luo Tian, ​​as that would only be seen as a sign of weakness.

Mechanic had considered several ways Divina might handle the situation, but this performance was completely beyond her expectations.

Mechanic's eyes narrowed slightly, his mind racing with thoughts.

She voluntarily followed Divina on her travels through the worlds, and along the way she encountered some very important figures whose status and position made her extremely wary.

For example, the Heavenly Revelation God King of the World of Gods and the Divine Immortal Lord of the Xuanhuang Great World are both great figures second only to the Great Divine Power.

However, when facing such an important figure, Divina only maintained an attitude of equal communication.

The fact that he was being treated with such courtesy by the regent of the Great Yin Dynasty made Mechanshut think deeply about this.

In the eyes of many outsiders, Divina was simply a lucky person who unexpectedly received the blessing of two great divine beings.

Only she, who was close to Divina, knew that even she couldn't help but marvel at Divina's talent and methods.

Even without the blessing of two great gods, as long as Divina is given an opportunity, her future achievements will certainly not be bad.

Given this impression, Divina's gesture of bowing seemed to be full of profound meaning.

Outside the palace, the stars and gods watching over the area exchanged glances, each seeing the doubt in the other's heart.

"Is there some shady deal going on behind the scenes?"

Outside the main world of the stars, on a warship following the Leviathan behemoth, Grand Duke Northwind and the other four dukes looked somewhat grim.

Originally, they had no intention of attending the grand ceremony, but Divina was very dissatisfied with the underhanded schemes of the dukes and marquises, and with a single sentence, she determined that the dukes and marquises must attend the ceremony.

The dukes and marquises dared not refuse Divina's will, but their warships were far slower than the Leviathan behemoth, so they were delayed for a while.

But this slight time difference allowed them to witness Divina bowing to Luo Tian, ​​and an ominous premonition arose in their hearts.

"Could it be that this Lady of the Abyss is using this to warn us?"

"It must be that the North Wind family's deliberate act of bringing those treasures to the North Wind Plane has been discovered."

The fact that Her Highness, the Daughter of the Abyss, bowed to the Regent was a way of telling us that if we continued these underhanded tactics, she could choose to cooperate with the Regent to eliminate us.

"She was willing to swallow her pride and bow to the Regent, so she certainly wouldn't care about the minor negative impact on her reputation that would result from betraying our cooperation."

"As expected of His Majesty who comes from the chaotic abyss, every move he makes leaves such a foreshadowing. He is truly not to be underestimated."

Several dukes and marquises discussed with great concern the hidden meaning behind Divina's statement, while only Marquis Hanhai stood aside, hesitating to speak several times.

"But Her Majesty the Daughter of the Abyss doesn't need to cooperate with the Regent to deal with us!"

A profound silence fell upon the warship.

......

Divina never imagined that her simple act of bowing would spark so many wild ideas; at the time, she was simply acting on instinct.

The moment she bent down, she snapped out of her previous instinctive action.

"What's wrong with me? What am I doing?"

A whole host of yellow question marks rose in Divina's mind.

"A guest who has come from afar is a guest indeed. Your Majesty, Daughter of the Abyss, there is no need for such formalities."

A gentle voice rose from above, waking Divina from her mind full of questions.

She straightened up and looked up, her pale gold eyes beneath her helmet flashing with anger, as if she wanted to question Luo Tian.

However, when her gaze fell upon the gentle smile on that handsome face, the anger that had been building up inside her vanished instantly.

A certain incomparably warm and affectionate aura emanated from Luo Tian, ​​deeply attracting Divina.

In fact, according to Divina's opinion, Luo Tian's appearance was not particularly outstanding.

They are at least not as good as the male fallen angels among the fallen angels, whose appearances are comparable to succubi.

Luo Tian simply sat upright in the main seat, dressed in a black robe without much adornment. He exuded an aura of complete control, and his dark eyes held a profound and serene deathly intensity.

He simply sat there, and it was as if he had become the center of the entire world. In addition, the aura that made Divina feel attached was like a deadly poppy to Divina.

For a moment, Divina was stunned.

"Your Highness, Daughter of the Abyss, please take a seat!"

Luo Tian spoke, pointing his right hand towards the steps and platform.

There, two chairs were placed, almost as tall as the main seat where Luo Tian was sitting.

Without hesitation, Divina led the succubus king, Mecanshite, to a seat.

Even so, Divina's fiery gaze remained fixed on Luo Tian.

If it weren't for the silver helmet covering her face, Divina's condition would probably have been exposed to everyone's view long ago.

Luo Tian, ​​sitting in the main seat, twitched his lips slightly, feeling that the Abyss Daughter seemed to be acting a little strange.

In fact, Luo Tian harbored deep hostility towards Divina from the very beginning, after all, the impact of the giant Leviathan was no joke.

Although it was just a test, it was clear that Divina had ill intentions.

However, after stepping off the Leviathan, Divina took the initiative to bow to Luo Tian, ​​which left Luo Tian somewhat confused about Divina's intentions.

However, one shouldn't hit a smiling face. Since Divina's attitude was quite good, Luo Tian was also very friendly towards her.

But after Luo Tian spoke, he began to regret it.

After they sat down, Divina's intense gaze became increasingly aggressive, especially since she could peek at him without restraint thanks to the helmet, which made Luo Tian feel quite uncomfortable.

"This isn't the Daughter of the Abyss! She should be renamed the Abyss Madwoman!"

Chapter 227 A subject dies for his lord's dishonor!

Just as Luo Tian was silently repeating "Boys must protect themselves when they go out" three times in a row, his "savior" finally arrived.

A massive warship broke through the clouds and slowly landed above the capital.

On the warship, the clan crests of the five dukes shone brightly, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

Even Divina slightly averted her burning gaze and turned her attention to the warship, a hint of hostility flashing in her eyes.

After breaking through the clouds, the warship was fully revealed in the sky, resembling a steel jungle standing in the firmament.

This warship is a planetary-level vessel, designed by the Arcane Alliance.

A month ago, the fleet under the command of Marquis Yueshan used this warship in conjunction with the command flag controlling the capital's defensive array to force its way into the capital, but was ultimately destroyed by Luo Tian.

Now, just one month later, another planetary warship has intruded into the airspace of the capital.

The imperial capital's protective array had been shattered by the Leviathan behemoth's impact, and the planetary warships easily entered the capital's interior.

The warships did not rush to land over the palace, but instead stopped in the city of the capital. The noble badges representing the five dukes and marquises shone brightly as they slowly passed over the many residential areas, clearly visible to all the people of the capital.

This time, the planetary warship that arrived was completely different from its previous panicked and disheveled appearance. At this moment, the planetary warship was like a victorious general returning home, looking down on all the people in the imperial capital.

On the warship, the five dukes and marquises felt a surge of pride and satisfaction.

After learning that Luo Tian was a powerful deity, the five dukes lived in constant fear, not even daring to return to their own families, for fear that Luo Tian might take a stroll through their world and casually destroy them.

Now that they could appear openly before Luo Tian, ​​even the most shrewd and calculating nobles couldn't help but show their joy.

Only after a moment of joy did Marquis Han Hai, watching the slowly flying planetary warship, feel a pang of worry and say:

"My lords, Her Majesty the Daughter of the Abyss is still in the palace. If we delay too long, Her Majesty may become dissatisfied."

Grand Duke Beifeng frowned slightly as he looked at the disappointed Marquis Hanhai and said:

"What do you know? We're using this opportunity to put pressure on the Regent."

"After the Regent suppressed Behemoth, the entire Great Yin Empire stood on the opposite side of Her Majesty the Daughter of the Abyss, and so did we."

With Her Majesty the Daughter of the Abyss, the Succubus Queen, and the Wicked Dragon present today, it's not our turn to act. Therefore, our mission is to make that Regent err, no matter what means we use.

"Once Her Majesty the Daughter of the Abyss finds an excuse to make a move, the three powerful gods will be able to suppress the Regent with ease."

Grand Duke Cangye, standing to the side, nodded slightly and said:

"Today is Yin Qianyu's wedding ceremony. Our swaggering tour of the capital will divert attention from the ceremony to us, which will surely provoke the Regent's wrath."

Given the Regent's temperament, there's a high probability he'll take action. We can then use his actions as a pretext to turn the situation into one that benefits Her Majesty the Daughter of the Abyss.

"Regent? Powerful divine power? So what!"

His temper, which has been thoroughly figured out, is his biggest weakness!

Besides the Duke of Hanhai, several other dukes and marquises also nodded in agreement.

In their view, they would accept any conditions as long as Luo Tian was eliminated.

Even the fact that the Daughter of the Abyss controls the Great Yin Empire is not unacceptable to them.

These powerful figures control the Great Yin Empire solely for its vast resources and massive numbers of transmigrators. Even after handing these over, the Great Yin Empire will still remain the domain of their noble families.

Therefore, they were quite happy to see the Daughter of the Abyss extend her reach to the Great Yin Empire, at least this would ensure that they were on the same side.

The planetary warship flew arrogantly over the capital, immediately causing a stir among the city's residents.

Since the last time the planetary warship stormed the capital city, it happened at night, and most of the capital's residents did not witness the scene. Now, the appearance of this warship, which resembles a steel island, along with the shining insignia of dukes and marquises on it, immediately sparked a discussion.

"These are the family crests of those dukes and marquises!"

"As expected of a great noble family, they can actually deploy such a huge warship."

"Are you gentlemen here to offer your congratulations today, His Majesty?"

"As expected of a great noble family with a thousand-year history, their foundation is indeed profound. No garrison in the capital dared to stop them!"

......

Exclamations of awe echoed throughout the capital. Although the Leviathan was magnificent, its hostility and the fact that it was frozen had diminished the awe many people felt.
