What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

Gu Yuqiu said, "Tall trees."

Shen Muchan was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked, "Advanced mathematics?"

Gu Yuqiu glanced at her, confirmed that she was not Lin Mushi, and shook her head slightly.

Just as Shen Muchan was about to press for more information, the elevator doors opened.

Gu Yuqiu ignored her and walked forward, her figure disappearing into the deep passage.

Shen Muchan finally came to her senses and quickly followed.

The white cat, held in her arms, vaguely sensed Takagi's meaning and widened its eyes, wondering if he was actually waiting here.

……

……

The top floor of the Special Affairs Bureau building.

Lu Xiu, panting heavily, dragged his weak body past Lin Mushi and came to the edge, looking out at the battlefield that was about to sink completely into the void.

His face turned pale, and he couldn't help but cough, but only vomited a few drops of blood, like the mark left on the palm of a mosquito that hadn't had enough to drink.

Standing at a high vantage point, although one still cannot fully grasp the emotions of the battle that took place in the virtual realm, one can ultimately discover more details.

Countless white lines appeared and disappeared, swirling around the white-robed youth standing in the center of the giant pit, shattering the dim stars.

At the very heart of it all, the yellowed pages of the book in the white-robed pope's hand were still burning, emitting a faint glow.

The sky is now bright, and the dead of night has turned into day. From a distance, it looks like a spark.

Not worth mentioning.

Lu Xiu, however, knew that the truth was not so.

The reason why the Pope still chose to burn the Ancient Scroll of Sleep, even though he had already delayed Su Yan with the stars formed from thousands of dream worlds, was because he was still integrating the glass of the new Chu from the real world into his own dream.

If this process is completed, then the outcome tonight will be predetermined.

He remembered someone, turned to look at Lin Mushi, and shouted anxiously, "Find Gu Yuqiu!"

Lin Mushi was stunned. She subconsciously wanted to take out her phone, but then remembered that there was no network in Xin Chu now, and she lost her mind.

Just then, a voice reached their ears.

"You only think of me when you're in trouble?"

Gu Yuqiu arrived at the scene, ignoring the gazes of the two people, walked to the edge and looked into the distance with a calm expression.

Lin Mushi looked behind her.

There was also a short girl and a white cat there.

……

……

Far away, on the battlefield.

The crater was eventually located near the sea, and after countless impacts, the seaward side began to collapse, allowing seawater to seep in.

After an unknown amount of time, those tens of thousands of white lines converged once again.

The white light that shone through the dense clouds became much dimmer and was no longer bright.

Su Yan appeared, standing opposite the Pope.

The two were now extremely close, less than ten meters apart.

Su Yan raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her lips, but found that more blood was gushing out, as if it could not be wiped clean, so she put her hand down.

The Pope looked at her; the thousands of stars that had once filled her now seemed extremely sparse, giving her a sense of utter loneliness.

The outcome seems quite clear.

"That's fine then."

Su Yan sighed and said, "I don't want to get involved in this mess anymore."

The Pope paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Thank you."

Given the stark difference in their injuries, why would Su Yan say such a thing, and why would the Pope thank her so earnestly?

Su Yan turned around and disappeared.

However, the Pope's gaze remained fixed on the scene.

A moment later, a man appeared in his field of vision, seemingly occupying the entire world.

He bowed slightly to the man and said softly, "You've arrived."

The man remained silent.

The Pope looked into his eyes, his expression becoming more serious than ever before, and asked, "How should I address you... my former Lord?"

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Sleep finally spoke.

It was a language that did not originate from human civilization; it came from nothingness and reached everyone's ears, conveying an extremely accurate meaning without any apparent reason.

That means: You should repent for your betrayal.

P.S.: Tall trees = advanced mathematics, I don't think I've mentioned this before?

Chapter 137: Chapter 135 Why is he an evil god?

Few people still clearly remember what happened to Gao Shu.

Looking at the unfamiliar figure and sensing the aura emanating from Gao Shu, Lu Xiu asked with a bewildered expression, "What's going on here?"

Suddenly, just a second before the outcome of the battle was about to be decided, Su Yan and the Pope abandoned their fight without any warning, ending the fight in a way that was completely baffling.

Then, he saw a man's figure and heard those two sentences.

And then there was that last sound.

As the sound gradually faded, the light that had broken through the layers of dense clouds dissipated, and the world once again fell into darkness.

Immediately afterwards, a blinding white light filled everyone's field of vision.

Then, a deep, rumbling thunderclap sounded.

From then on, it continued without end.

Looking around, a scene resembling the end of the world unfolded before the entire Xin Chu.

It was all because of that voice.

"Lord of the Sleeping Souls."

Gu Yuqiu's voice reached everyone's ears.

Lu Xiu subconsciously looked at her and asked again, "What's going on?"

He had not forgotten that not long ago Zhong Chongshan had reported to him that the Pope had evacuated all believers of the Church of the Sleeping Souls from Xinchu, leaving not a single one behind.

Why can the Lord of Sleep descend again?

“That person… no, that body belongs to Takagi.”

For some reason, Lin Mushi remained calm, looking at the countless changes in front of her, and said softly, "A month ago, Gao Shu was captured by Gu Yuqiu and me and imprisoned in the underground of the Special Affairs Bureau."

She was silent for a moment, then turned her head to look at Su Yan, who had appeared beside her, and said, "Two weeks later, you met with Gao Shu and came to a conclusion, which is why Zhong Chongshan ignored Gao Shu."

Lu Xiu was slightly taken aback and asked, puzzled, "Why would you overlook it?"

Su Yan did not speak.

Lin Mushi looked at her profile and said to Lu Xiu, "Because on the night after Su Yan interrogated Gao Shu, which was the incident involving the Fool's Ship and Crimson, the director learned Su Yan's true identity. And the handover process between him and you was too rushed. Perhaps... he inadvertently overlooked some details that he thought were no longer a problem."

The white cat was quite surprised, wondering how it had suddenly become so smart.

"Moreover, Gao Shu is only a second-tier cultivator."

Gu Yuqiu gave the final reason.

Even with the identity of a chosen one, a second-tier being is still just a second-tier being, not worth mentioning. In the current New Chu, even taking advantage of the chaos is impossible.

Shen Muchan raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking to herself, "Aren't you also at the second level?"

The matter is now clear.

—In recent years, the Pope has been focused on resisting the corruption of the Lord of the Sleeping and has stopped paying attention to the specific affairs of the Church of the Sleeping. As a result, he forgot about the existence of the High Tree and thought that the believers of the Church of the Sleeping had all withdrawn from New Chu according to his orders, and that the Lord of the Sleeping no longer had a physical body to descend upon.

Unfortunately, Gu Yuqiu has a very good memory.

Thus, the tall tree saw the light of day again, and under her guidance, it was perceived by the Lord of the Sleeping World, and then a divine descent was performed as a matter of course.

Just like Gu Yuqiu descended upon Lin Mushi three days ago.

Everything happened so naturally.

The white cat opened its eyes wide and looked at Gu Yuqiu, thinking, "Is this your real plan?"

Gu Yuqiu noticed its gaze, parted her red lips slightly, and silently said no.

……

……

After hearing the Lord of the Sleep's question, the Pope remained silent for a long time.

He lowered his head slightly, his back to the sky, showing no concern for the apocalyptic scene before him, as if he were already regretting his actions.

"Do you repent?"

The Pope suddenly spoke.

His voice was calm, tinged with some emotion and regret, but these emotions, when heard by everyone, became extremely complex.

I don't know whether to find it absurd, pitying, or fortunate.

The power that the Pope has demonstrated today, though extremely strong, is far from being despair-inducing.

Suddenly, a god descended, and the Lord of the Sleeping God, with a condescending attitude, coldly asked the question about repentance, which naturally made the Pope the weaker party.

Some powerful superhumans learned that the Pope had betrayed his God, and then deduced the reasons behind it. They couldn't help but feel those emotions and stood on the side of the weak.
