The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

Her choice is evident from the well-deserved and unquestionable title of the Great Sage.

"Moreover, if we had done that back then, we would undoubtedly have stood against Master and you, Bai Ye. The first Demon King Alliance in the Garden of Seven Great Sages might have become a true 'Demon King Alliance,' since the path forward would be to be tainted by the filth of killing people. Xing's essence had already been corrupted long ago."

Sun Wukong sighed. Even though she was called the last daughter by the King of the Killer Race, she knew that the Star Primordial was more extreme than both humans and gods, and was naturally opposed to both.

Having nurtured everything, it intends to destroy everything—that's the current stance of the largest and strongest Blue Star Spirit.

The Monkey King's usually lively expression has become somewhat complicated now, given that he is related to his mother and actually interfered with his life before he was born.

However, she quickly regained her cheerfulness.

"Besides—I don't think I'm any worse than the original me."

"what……"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ye chuckled.

Even if she had embarked on that path, she didn't believe the Monkey King would be unable to resist the corruption of the murderous race, but regarding the other party's last words—

"Thinking about it carefully, that's indeed the case."

Sun Wukong abandoned the original text, but he has reached his current level with a spiritual status that is not that of a candidate for the original text. He did not rely on a destiny or an appointment that he was destined to be, but on his own strength.

Although it is not as large in scale as the apocalypse that this generation of candidates for the original text must face, Bai Ye still believes that this is no less great than creating the original text.

Not to mention that even in the face of the apocalypse, this Great Sage Equal to Heaven still resolutely stood at the forefront, taking up the mission he had abandoned because he refused to fall into depravity, a mission that should have been irrelevant to him after that.

Thinking of this, Bai Ye's gaze softened even more.

"Anyway, we are already in the 'Original Text' now. As the organizer of this competition, I have the authority, but my freedom of action is relatively limited. I need to ask you for help."

"Don't worry, that's why I'm here... After all, I really want to have a good talk with my 'senior'."

After refusing the position of Blue Star Spirit, it would be quite interesting to give that self-proclaimed Blue Star Great Spirit, who likes to go astray, a good beating. The mischievousness and fighting spirit in the little monkey's eyes, so familiar, brought a nostalgic smile to Bai Ye's face, who had watched him grow up.

Then, she snapped the folding fan shut and turned her gaze forward.

"But in the end, what will happen...? The protagonist of the original work still occupies the most important position and bears the heaviest responsibility."

"……yes."

The little monkey followed her gaze and smiled gently.

"However, I've already trained these little guys quite well for a while. If they still fail this time, I'll have to beat them even harder later."

"No... Although hearing you speak in this aged tone evokes a strange sense of emotion in me, I don't remember ever teaching you this kind of violent education..."

The two, who once had a relationship of raising and being raised, joked with each other, while ahead, the nameless group, who were the inheritors of the two, were carrying the sovereignty of the sun and heading towards the stage prepared for them.

Chapter 790 Old Friends Gathered

As Bai Ye saw Wuming and the others, Wuming naturally saw Bai Ye and the others as well.

"Oh? I didn't expect that the game's top organizer would also have to take on the task of receiving the participants. Has your Heavenly Army become so short-staffed?"

"There's nothing we can do about it; nobody's having an easy time these days."

As Izayoi smiled and shrugged, Byakuya's gaze swept over the group of people.

As long as they possess the Star Sovereignty and the initial game files, the participants can teleport back to the continent of Atlantis on their own. And just as everyone had predicted at the beginning, the Nameless team returned here unscathed. The intervention of the World Dragon did not affect this result.

However, the team has not remained unchanged; there has been one more person added.

He was a white-haired boy with dark skin, his expression somewhat blank and lost. The other two nameless girls also seemed to have mixed feelings of concern and wariness towards him, so they entrusted the matter of negotiating with Bai Ye to the boy who had always been the most reliable.

"Ha...is this your answer sheet?"

"After all, the regulations only stipulate the 'holders' of Star Sovereignty, not the actual owners of sovereignty, right? In other words, all you need to do is hold onto it. This is thanks to your proxy model. What I'm doing doesn't count as a violation... No, not only does it not count as a violation, it's also more in line with your wishes, isn't it?"

Izayoi smiled, while Byakuya pursed his lips.

"Well, there's no violation... but that's enough. Beyond that, the Heavenly Army has no intention of interfering with your choices."

"As far as I know, the 'Heavenly Army' does not include you, the ruler of the plenipotent class. Besides, not interfering and not expecting are two different things, aren't they?"

The boy's words made Bai Ye chuckle, while Sun Wukong clapped his hands.

"Alright, alright, we've known each other for so long, why all this nonsense? Although I'm not entirely uninterested in talking badly about Tianjun behind his back, let's wait until you've cleaned up your messy appearance before sitting down and having a drink together."

Upon hearing Sun Wukong's words, Bai Ye's bitter smile deepened.

Although this little monkey is naturally close to the justice of this order because it is on Orpheus's side, it is somewhat hostile to the Heavenly Army, which should be on the same side or even under the same system.

To be precise, it refers to the Buddhist and Heavenly Court factions within the Heavenly Army.

Given past grievances, this antagonism is not hard to understand.

Given the magnanimity of the Monkey King, it's unlikely he would hold onto past grievances after such a long period of cooperation. However, it's not uncommon for him to seize an opportunity to surpass his opponent in competition and then make a few sarcastic remarks.

On the other hand, what she just said is also true. Although Wuming is not as disheveled as Di Shitian and His Highness, and even the three of them, including Kuon Asuka who should be the weakest, look quite energetic, they are still covered in blood and their clothes are torn.

Faced with the words of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, even Izayoi could only shrug with a wry smile, as if surrendering.

"I understand, I understand. I look forward to our next drink and conversation... After all, I haven't had a chance to properly learn about that glorious history from you lately."

The glorious history that Izayoi spoke of was not at all sarcastic. The great feat of fighting against the Heavenly Court, which once held the banner of order, as the Seven Demon Kings must be a legend that would arouse curiosity and excitement in anyone. Just imagining it made Izayoi's blood boil.

"Ha, I'd love to, after all, I don't want this story to one day become the Heavenly Court's version... although it's impossible under the current circumstances."

The Monkey King responded with a smile, jokingly saying that 'now' would inevitably happen if the Heavenly Court truly won.

Perhaps that would be the timeline in which she becomes a nun and attains enlightenment?

"Alright, then..."

After the two candidates for the original text had finished greeting each other, Byakuya raised his hands with a gentle smile, preparing to escort Izayoi and the others to the specially provided rest area.

But just before his hands came together, Bai Ye suddenly stopped and instead raised his knee.

"Hey!"

Bang───

"Ah ah!"

Accompanied by a sound that would make you feel pain just by hearing it, the petite figure who originally wanted to pounce and suppress the attack was directly hit by Bai Ye's knee strike and flew back at several times the speed of when she came.

"Waaah... This is so mean... You stupid eggy night, is this how you welcome old friends? What if my cute face gets hurt? How are you going to take responsibility?"

"Damn it, if you were really a little girl, I'd be happy to obediently take the attack, but someone like you from the same era as me, forget it—and even I don't want to be crushed by the mass of the World Dragon!"

When faced with the lunging target—Kurima, known as the World King or the World Dragon—Byakuya mercilessly swung his bayonet at his own weaknesses, age and weight, which he himself possessed, or even more severely.

"Whoosh..."

However, the World Dragon, seemingly unfazed by the attack, rose up from the ground in the distance.

"As expected, Bai Ye, you haven't changed much."

"I don't want to be talked about this by someone like you."

Bai Ye replied irritably, while covering his face with his fan.

"And then what? You're the new ones who completed it?"

"Yes, he's my little brother. I brought him along to introduce him to you, Bai Ye, since it's a rare opportunity."

"Ha...that's what they say, but we've known these people for a long time."

Bai Ye glanced at His Highness and the others, then narrowed his eyes.

"However... this is the first time I've heard about the issue of solar sovereignty. Orpheus actually kept it from me... no, was he just too lazy to tell me?"

"So, does that mean we've passed?"

His Highness smiled like a nobleman and asked Bai Ye gently.

"Yes, of course... The fact that you were able to return to this island is enough proof; there's no need for me to confirm it again."

Byakuya shrugged in response, a stark contrast to his earlier attitude toward Izayoi.

"But since it's on the way, I'll take you all there... Speaking of which, wasn't it you who got you here?"

Byakuya looked at Kurima with his eyes half-closed.

After being teleported back to the mainland, participants should arrive at a random location. Following the prompts to the rest area provided by the Heavenly Army is also part of the test.

But Your Highness is too unpredictable.

"Who knows? If that's the case, isn't it the same for your group? Maybe the original candidates are naturally attracted to each other?"

Kulima's dafu made Baiye roll his eyes and clap his hands down.

In the next instant, everyone present, except for the three who had broken through the rules, vanished from their original spot.

Since the so-called test that you have to go through is not a written rule of the game, you can cheat and skip it.

In the end, the two sides, Nameless and Avatara, simply faced off quietly without any tension before being teleported away in silence.

Only then did Bai Ye sigh.

"So, can we talk about your real purpose now?"

She looked at Kurima with a serious expression.

To the Heavenly Army, Kurima was at most a competitor rather than an enemy, but in some ways he was a ticking time bomb. Even from a personal perspective, Byakuya was very curious about what his former best friend was thinking.

"hey-hey."

Kurima tilted his head slightly, his hand loosely clenched.

"I think I just heard them drinking and chatting happily?"

Then, just as Bai Ye thought this guy was about to unleash some powerful move, he spoke up.

"You bastard..."

Bai Ye smiled wryly, his eyes catching the sudden interest in the little monkey beside him.

"As expected, nothing has changed..."

After making this exclamation, Bai Ye's smile turned into one of eager anticipation.

"Well... although we'll be hosting a banquet for our sponsors later, let's start our own event a little earlier. After all, all our old friends have arrived early and are gathered together. What do you think?"

Bai Ye's gaze shifted again.
