What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

Theresa's gaze followed those four words and landed beside her, her eyes filled with a blankness, as if she had seen something unbelievable.

Lin Mushi understood.

She bit her lower lip, tilted her head slightly, and gazed through the vast expanse of rain.

A black figure appeared nearby, seemingly out of nowhere.

The figure's face was blurry and constantly changing, as if a million faces were wandering around, indistinguishable from you, me, him, or her.

There is only one thing in common among them.

The scent of death.

For the extraordinary beings of this world, those who had seen that void sea months ago, this aura felt both familiar and strange.

It's familiar because everyone can see its light whenever they look up at the sky.

It is unfamiliar because everyone is at an absolute distance from it, as if one could never get close to it even if one spent a lifetime trying.

Lin Mushi didn't understand what was going on, but she did understand why Su Yan had suddenly appeared and incorporated this place directly into her sanctuary.

If the aura of this dark figure were to be revealed, the undercurrents within Xin Chu would erupt in an instant, escalating into an uncontrollable situation.

No one can be sure where the situation will lead at that time.

Su Yan didn't want this to happen, and more importantly, everything today started because of her, so she showed up without hesitation to stop it.

Lin Mushi is not the only one who has figured this out.

Theresa looked at the dark figure, her expression becoming extremely complicated.

Feeling lost and bewildered.

excited.

worship.

Puzzled.

absurd.

nostalgia.

kind.

disturbed.

hope.

despair.

Resentment and malice.

Finally, there is anger.

Countless emotions flashed in her eyes, and her expression changed accordingly; that sense of holiness had long since vanished.

She couldn't comprehend the sudden turn of events before her. She took a deep breath and asked in a trembling voice, "Is it...you?"

Everyone present knew that she was asking about the dark figure.

There was no answer. The dark figure didn't even glance at her before slowly approaching Lin Mushi and entering the girl's body.

The wind and rain continued, but an eerie silence permeated the air.

Theresa calmed down, her gaze fixed on Lin Mushi, and said, word by word, "I will kill you."

Lin Mushi wondered what exactly this was all about.

She could sense that these words were spoken with all their might, even at the cost of their lives.

Just as she was at a loss and wanted to say that she was also innocent, she suddenly spoke.

She was the one speaking.

But the person speaking wasn't her.

That's enough for now.

She looked at Su Yan uncontrollably and said in a detached tone, "It's time to put an end to the farce you've created."

Su Yan was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "So in your eyes, what isn't a farce?"

She said, "There are still some."

Su Yan asked seriously, "Like her?"

The "she" in the conversation naturally refers to Lin Mushi.

"I don't understand what you're asking."

She continued to control Lin Mushi, saying, "If you've lost your composure and can't have a normal conversation, then let's not talk anymore."

Su Yan sneered and remained silent.

She dismissed it, turned to Theresa, and said, "You have two choices now."

Theresa lowered her head and said softly, "I will obey God's will."

"die."

She said, "Or live."

Theresa looked up at her, her eyes brightening, and said, "Then... may I follow you and have the opportunity to become your successor?"

Without any hesitation, she said, "No."

Theresa remained silent for a long time, then looked up at the overcast sky, raised her hand to wipe the rain from her face, and said with a devout expression, "Then I want to see death."

……

……

"Even for you, crossing the threshold between the third and fourth tiers isn't so easy, is it?"

Shen Hong looked at Gu Yuqiu on the chair and said slowly, "Moreover, Lin Mushi's body has already reached its limit and is in a terrible state."

Gu Yuqiu casually said, "This is my second best skill."

The white cat sitting to the side nodded, indicating that it was absolutely true.

Over the years, it and Gu Yuqiu walked together, and after stepping onto the path to godhood, it displayed unparalleled talent.

As long as that vast, empty sea exists, such a brilliant person, as dazzling as a shooting star, cannot remain unknown and unnoticed.

Naturally, many people became wary of her, and after all the factions realized they couldn't win her over, a campaign of encirclement and suppression ensued.

Those were many bloody battles.

The white cat still fondly remembers the Battle of the Baltic Sea.

There was the battle in which Gu Yuqiu fought his way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, and met Su Yan.

Of course, there was also the battle where Crimson and he forged a deep-seated hatred.

Countless battles, facing death to live, ultimately created the steps to godhood, and she stepped onto them.

All of this happened in just five years.

She proved that she was not only exceptionally talented, but also the most powerful person in the world, and the one who knew how to defeat the strong with the weak.

The problem is that this time she's not using her own body.

Crimson said earnestly, "Please don't lose."

In fact, when Gu Yuqiu was about to die and decided to perform a divine descent, she had every opportunity to kill her enemy.

But when she thought about what Gu Yuqiu was going to do, she ultimately gave up.

It has nothing to do with Lin Mushi.

It has nothing to do with her plans.

She simply felt that even if Gu Yuqiu was going to die, he shouldn't die so frivolously; he should have a grand enough funeral.

This is a very simple principle.

……

……

Even if it means death?

"Yes."

"Being alive is a wonderful thing."

"The premise is that living is not painful."

Why are you in pain?

“I cannot imagine the scene of me telling my compatriots this news after my faith has been denied by you personally. It would be a disaster.”

"As I said before, gods do not need faith, and all your efforts are destined to be in vain."

"However, we need you."

The conversation ended there.

That was the last time.

Theresa had much more to say about the relationship between faith and God, but the time had come.

In the midst of wind and rain, thunder finally roared.

That's not a description, but a tangible reality.

Gu Yuqiu raised her hand somewhat unfamiliarly, feeling the pain coming from this body, but a hint of comfort appeared in her eyes.

She had forgotten how long it had been since she had felt this way.

Long before she even reached the top of the Ascension Stairs, no one in this world chose to be her enemy or bring her pain.

Therefore, this feeling has been quite long-lost.

She was satisfied, finding some familiar flavors, and said to Theresa, "Come on."

Theresa bowed her head in greeting.
