Each of the nine dragon maidens possesses extraordinary abilities.

Of course, his sincerity towards himself was fake; he was already convinced that he would help him.

What an interesting little guy.

He really knew how to judge God. Yes, how could He not help him? To let the four gods fall, to corrupt the bloodline, and to let the evils of the world burn fiercely—how could He possibly miss such a fun opportunity?

He has been silent for so long that everyone has forgotten about him as a god. Using a god to kill a god, great, great, how could such a thing be complete without Him?

"You want me to kill the four gods because you know that humans cannot kill gods."

He smiled lovingly:

"But how can you be sure I can kill them? You're not just killing one god, but four gods, the four gods that you humans mainly believe in. After so many years of faith, their power probably covers every aspect of the secular world."

The Celestial Venerable Who Attains Enlightenment Through Slaughter is a legendary ancient demon lord who attained enlightenment through slaughter. Cultivators believe him to be the ruler of the ancient Asura path, wielding the power of calamity, whose authority encompasses all worldly tribulations and carnage.

The Nine Transformations Celestial Ancestor often said that the Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Dao is forty-nine, and man escapes one of them. And the one that escapes is forever unpredictable. Therefore, the Celestial Ancestor's power is unobservable, unpredictable, and unspeakable.

The Great Virtuous Lord of Life and Death believes that fallen leaves returning to their roots is decay, while decaying grass transforming into fireflies is rebirth; the old is immortal, and only then can the new grow. His power is to accept and encompass all, including sickness, decay, and death.

The Fairy of Six Desires and Wonderful Sounds pursues the ultimate sensory experience and aesthetic ideals. Her followers can be sword fanatics seeking the ultimate swordsmanship, music enthusiasts seeking the ultimate rhythm, or dual cultivators seeking the ultimate pleasure. Power is the ultimate in beauty, the ultimate in feeling, and the ultimate in existence itself, but the ultimate is itself a kind of distortion.

Although the cultivation paths differ across the Nine Provinces, for the Central Province, the four main paths of cultivation are related to the Four Gods. They attained enlightenment together with the ancient Dragon God, and to this day, their blessings continue to protect the Nine Peaks Sect.

Even today, their eyes still monitor everything in the mortal world through the Jiuyi Sect. This is the main reason why the Jiuyi Sect has become the number one sect in the world. The guardians and the four gods cooperate with each other to keep the mortal world from ever forgetting the fear of being ruled by the four gods.

Over the years, not to mention the various regions of the Nine Provinces, just in the Central Province alone, under the influence of the Nine Peaks Sect, countless beliefs have been passed on to the Four Gods. For so many years, the Holy Emperor has been sealed in the Nether Sea. With the ebb and flow of the tide, even if the Holy Emperor breaks free from the seal, it is still uncertain whether he can defeat the Four Gods.

Putting aside quality, the quantity doesn't seem to be quite equal.

The Holy Emperor certainly has ways to deal with the Four Gods, but He brought this up now mainly to see what Lu Yueyuan would do.

After all, judging from the timeline, he suffered quite a few losses at the hands of the Four Gods and the Guardians.

"Merge with Guixu." Lu Yueyuan only said four words.

"Hehehe, hahahahahaha..."

The Holy Emperor burst into laughter.

Sure enough, all those jumps by the little grasshopper weren't in vain; they did have some use after all. That's right, the merger of the Void is the biggest weakness of the Four Gods. As long as we take advantage of this, let alone the Holy Emperor, any god with even a little bit of power can kill the Four Gods.

Now, the Holy Emperor has understood Lu Yueyuan's idea: to eliminate the Dragon God's bloodline by dealing with the guardians, and finally release Him, using the merger of the Void to complete the annihilation of the Four Gods. This is his plan.

A flawed and insane plan, but He liked it.

"You are more suited to be my follower than arrogance, Lu Yueyuan the Fearless, I acknowledge you..."

He smiled and said, “Let me condense into a form to bless you. Let me see what kind of deity you like most in your heart. I cannot disappoint my believer.”

Lu Yueyuan scratched his head.

Space continued to distort, and violent spiritual energy filled the space. The next second, a throne appeared on the other side of the long table.

The throne, burning fiercely in the darkness, revealed the Holy Emperor's transformation.

Petite and beautiful, dressed in a gothic dress, her blonde hair cascading down like a waterfall, all the beauty was concentrated in her delicate body.

A lovely... little girl?

"Hey." The Holy Emperor looked at Lu Yueyuan, "You're quite the actor."

Chapter 7: God acting on behalf of others

"Human desires are always diverse. At first, I just felt disgusted, but later I understood that this is what humanity is all about."

In the empty room, with its monotonous colors, Lu Yueyuan and He looked at each other across the table.

The legendary Holy Emperor was not at all surprised by his own appearance. He chuckled, crossed his legs, rested his elbows on the armrests, and tilted his head to look at the other person, his face propped up by his own.

"Chaos is evil, yet it contains light. It is not as extreme as the gods, but it is not pure either. Once I understood this, I stopped caring about it, so you don't need to be nervous."

It was somewhat awkward that the dignified Emperor was discussing XP with such a serious expression.

But Lu Yueyuan wasn't afraid of embarrassment; the cycle of time had made him exceptionally shameless.

Mature woman or loli? Flat-chested or magnanimous? This is truly a question worth exploring. If it were a long time ago, or in his previous life, Lu Yueyuan might have discussed it excitedly for a long time, but now he simply faced the Holy Emperor calmly.

He said, "Your test can be over."

"Hmph." The Holy Emperor chuckled slyly, "The test will always exist. Those who cannot stabilize their Dao heart are not worthy of becoming my followers."

He was not surprised that Lu Yueyuan could see through his test; it was intentional on His part.

During his long imprisonment, the Holy Emperor had become a top-notch entertainer. Making deals with Lu Yueyuan for fun was one thing, but finding fun in Lu Yueyuan was another. It could be said that from the moment Lu Yueyuan chose to come to Him, He had already been dancing on the edge of a knife.

So far, the Holy Emperor is generally satisfied with Lu Yueyuan, and they can begin to discuss the next phase of the God-Slaying Plan.

"Your soul is unique, and the path you've chosen allows you to plan more strategically in the dimension of time than others. However, putting aside the Four Gods, just dealing with the Guardians is a difficult task for you."

The Emperor's eyes shone brightly, and in that light, lies had nowhere to hide.

He said, “I see it very clearly. The Guardians are the problem you are facing. Rather than saying you want to liberate me, it is more accurate to say that you want to use my power to solve their problem.”

Lu Yueyuan nodded: "Yes."

The Holy Emperor said, “If you become my believer, I can indeed bestow blessings upon you. However, the nine meridians controlled by the guardians are the key to sealing me. If you do not resolve their issues, I cannot grant you powerful blessings.”

Lu Yueyuan said, "You should know what I'm thinking."

The Holy Emperor said, “Through schemes, deception, plots, and ambushes, you can indeed get rid of those guardians. But even if you kill them, the bloodline of the ancient dragon god will not disappear, and my seal will not be broken. What you want to eradicate is the bloodline, isn’t it?”

"exactly."

"You want to borrow the power of arrogance? Haha, how interesting. I thought you treated arrogance like a chicken, since you've been killing them like chickens in the cycle of time."

Lu Yueyuan sighed helplessly.

We've finally reached the crucial point.

To solve the problem of the guardians, simply killing them is not enough. The key is to address their bloodline. Lu Yueyuan certainly has his methods, but he prefers to save those for later. He hopes the Holy Emperor can help him solve this problem.

Or rather, he hoped to get help from the Holy Emperor's followers, but saying that out loud would change the meaning of his words.

Gods can have many followers and many descendants. For example, the ancient Dragon God had nine lineages as his successors. Similarly, the Four Gods can be considered followers of all the disciples of the Nine Peaks Sect. Among so many followers, only one is special to the gods. Only one can serve as their representative in the mortal world, inherit their authority, and walk their path.

Such people are called agents of the gods.

They are the exclusive believers of the gods. They share the same will, the same thoughts, and even share authority. Unlike other believers who struggle to walk the path of the gods, the agents can communicate with the gods at any time and use authority at any time. When other believers see the agents, it is as if they have seen the gods themselves.

To put it bluntly, this is no different from marriage. In marriage, your spouse might run away, but the agent and the deity must be completely unwavering in their hearts and minds. Under the witness of the Way of Heaven, the two can only share glory and destruction; there is no other way to choose.

This was one of the more endearing aspects of the game in its previous form. Players could choose a god and become that god's representative. Of course, if you wanted to change your mind, you could simply spend money to reset your stats. This made the gods seem like incompetent husbands, and many fan-made content creators did just that. For example, a player might become the representative of the Fairy of Wonderful Sound, and then suddenly be approached by the Heavenly Venerable of Proving the Dao, who would say, "You've never experienced this kind of thrill of killing with the Fairy of Wonderful Sound before, have you?" Then there would be a scene of the Fairy of Wonderful Sound shedding tears. It was incredibly hilarious.

As the main god promoted in the "War of Annihilation" major update, the Holy Emperor of Eternal Annihilation has been given a lot of build-up in the game. At that time, everyone was discussing what it would be like to become His representative. After all, this guy looks even more ridiculous than the Four Gods, and it would be a lot of fun to make Him awesome, especially after His image was decrypted.

Unfortunately, Lu Yueyuan transmigrated before the version update. In the simulated future, he tried to become the agent of other minor gods, but he didn't expect that the agent of the gods had to do a lot of things. It turned into a father taking care of his daughter. In addition, the gods were all crazy, so he tried to avoid the path of the agent in many ways later on.

Now that the simulation has failed, becoming the agent of the Eternal Annihilation Holy Emperor and unifying forces such as Arrogance has become Lu Yueyuan's carefully considered choice to break the deadlock.

Lu Yueyuan was about to speak when the little girl opposite him spoke first: "Putting aside the fact that you beat up my followers in the timeline, if you want to become my agent, there will be a lot of restrictions on you. Don't blame me for not reminding you, gods and agents share glory and destruction. I am currently sealed. Once you become my agent, your sensitivity to worldly spiritual energy will be immediately weakened."

Lu Yueyuan said, "It's alright."

"Hmph, you've been planning this all along, haven't you? But I'm not just any random god." The little girl leaned back slightly. "Convince me."

Lu Yueyuan pondered for a long time: "Your Majesty, I believe..."

"Okay, I'm convinced." The girl snapped her fingers.

A mist enveloped the room; it was a very comfortable mist, so comfortable that Lu Yueyuan subconsciously squinted his eyes. Then, a silver ring merged into Lu Yueyuan's body and fastened to his heart.

At the same time, the arrogant man, who was still holding a meeting in the phantom assembly, suddenly changed his expression and burst into tears, burying his face in his hands.

"No, my proxy position! Which bastard seduced my Holy Emperor?!"

Chapter 8: A Sea of ​​Hatred and a Sky of Love

The spiritual light of the great array in the forbidden area behind the mountain slowly dissipated.

Lu Yueyuan felt as if he were in a dream after returning from the Nether Sea.

Standing on solid ground, watching the surrounding trees sway in the wind, Lu Yueyuan touched his heart and took a deep breath. The sense of emptiness in the Nether Sea was too strong. The Holy Emperor was also a ruthless god, actually able to stay there patiently for so long.

Suddenly, the Holy Emperor's cheerful voice echoed in his mind: "Do you admire me even a little bit?"

Lu Yueyuan: "Please do not pry into my thoughts."

Holy Emperor: "Scumbag! You've turned your back on God just because you've become an agent?!"

Lu Yueyuan: "I'm just asking you to maintain basic respect for me."

Holy Emperor: "What kind of deity shows respect to its agents? I won't! I won't! I won't! I won't! I won't!"

Whether intentional or not, the Holy Emperor's personality has clearly been molded to be more childlike.

However, it didn't matter to Lu Yueyuan. Whatever the Holy Emperor's personality was, he had already achieved his goal for tonight.

He became the agent of the Holy Emperor of Eternal Annihilation, obtained His power, and possessed His authority.

Although His powers are temporarily unusable due to the Nine Meridians Seal, and He is even burdened with a buff that weakens his spiritual perception, it is not a loss for Lu Yueyuan.

Only gods can kill gods. As the four most powerful gods in the world today, only the Eternal Annihilation Holy Emperor can deal with them. Having already decided on the path to the future, Lu Yueyuan will walk it firmly.

The Holy Emperor: "There is something I would like to discuss with you."

Lu Yueyuan: "Please go ahead."

The Holy Emperor: "I haven't tasted the delicacies of the mortal world in a long time. Can I borrow your body for a while so I can have dinner?"

The relationship between the deity and the agent is intimate. As long as the agent allows, the deity can descend upon the agent at any time. However, note the preceding sentence: the agent must allow it. In the covenant of the Heavenly Way, the status of the deity and the agent is equal.

Just as using the authority of a god requires the god's consent, the descent of a god also requires the consent of the agent. Otherwise, if a god were to descend upon the agent and have sex with his woman, the agent wouldn't even know it.

I refuse NTR.

Lu Yueyuan: "I have already practiced fasting, so I don't need to eat."

The Holy Emperor: "I want to eat, I want to eat braised pork knuckle, steamed pork ribs, roast duck, braised chicken, braised beef, and candied hawthorn..."

Before the Holy Emperor could recite the menu, Lu Yueyuan had to interrupt him: "You know my current situation. Many people are watching me. If anything unusual happens, they will notice something is wrong."

The Holy Emperor said, “The Four Gods are not paying any attention to the mortal world right now. Their agents have also left. As for those guardians, don’t think I don’t know. Now, apart from your childhood sweetheart, the other guardians are only incarnations here. Their real bodies are all elsewhere.”

Lu Yueyuan: "Please don't pry into my memories, thank you."

Holy Emperor: "A shared honor."

The Holy Emperor kept making noise in Lu Yueyuan's mind, but He was still somewhat useful. With His help, Lu Yueyuan clearly felt the surveillance currently on him.

Needless to say, the guardians of the meridians are also watching him closely, as is Gluttony, but right now, the one monitoring him most intensely is undoubtedly...

As Lu Yueyuan walked out of the valley, Ming Huaiwei landed beside him.

Lu Yueyuan asked, "Are you still waiting for me?"

Ming Huai replied softly, "Ah, um, um..."

She looked Lu Yueyuan up and down, and at that moment, even the Holy Emperor fell silent.

She quickly looked away, and Lu Yueyuan didn't ask any more questions. The two walked side by side toward the cave.

After a long silence, Ming Huaiwei finally spoke first: "Was everything alright?"

"There was no response; Fairy Miaoyin ignored my calls," Lu Yueyuan said.

"No, don't rush, we can take our time. I'll help you..."

“I know,” Lu Yueyuan said.

Ming Huaiwei glanced at him subconsciously and suddenly said a lot: "I know you prefer a carefree life, it's okay, um... if you're unhappy being the sect leader, you don't have to care about anything. If those guardians don't give you a good look, I'll beat them up for you."

Holy Emperor: "I'll help you fight them~~~"

The voice that suddenly rang in his mind made Lu Yueyuan stop in his tracks.

Ming Huaiwei also stopped, looked at him, and waited for his reaction.

Lu Yueyuan took her hand and said, "Let's go."

"Ah, um, um..."

After bidding farewell to Ming Huaiwei, Lu Yueyuan returned to his cave and activated a spirit array to block all prying eyes.

Holy Emperor: "This was left to you by your grandmaster? Not bad, not bad. The formation is very ingenious. Your grandmaster was a good formation master."
