He had lived for too long.
Joy God King's deep eyes gazed at Cang Xiong. The feeling of being baptized by the passage of time was reflected in his eyes.
God King, the position that countless True Gods dreamed of. Joy God King was born for it.
The long passage of time had blurred his memories of the past. He could still vaguely remember that when he opened his eyes, he was lying on the cold jade bed in the Joy God Palace.
White icy air surrounded him as he walked out of his room in a daze.
What greeted his eyes was chaos.
There were no living creatures. In the entire palace, he could only see himself!
He couldn't remember how long he had been sitting in front of the palace. There was no day or night in the chaotic world. He just stared quietly until a golden light appeared in front of him.
That light split the chaos, separating heaven and earth.
A tall and sturdy figure carried a golden axe on his shoulder. Behind him, there was a dazzling brilliance that elongated his shadow. Even though he had never seen light before, his eyes still felt a piercing pain.
After a long time, he finally knew …
That was light!
The burly man took a few steps to stand in front of him. Noticing his presence, he seemed to be very happy. He smiled warmly, patting Joy God King, who was still very young at that time, and said something to him.
"From now on, you will be the Joy God King. You will bestow the path of joy to all living beings."
Yes!
He was born a God King, but the title of Joy was given to him by that man.
That man was the God Emperor!
It was also that man who patted his shoulder a few times that made him, who didn't know anything, suddenly have some other emotions. After a long time, he finally knew …
That was responsibility!
He, who had never seen other creatures, was also very excited when he saw that man.
He could feel the closeness between the two of them. He was so excited that he wanted to talk to that man, but after patting his shoulder, the man smiled and left.
Before leaving, he told him that he would have many companions in the future.
Just as he said, the Joyous God Palace had inexplicably gained a lot of people.
He didn't know where they came from, but he felt very happy with companions around him. He felt that all of this was given to him by that man. He wanted to repay that man, so he worked hard to bestow the path of joy to all living beings.
He had always been looking forward to meeting that man, but when they really met, he knew —
That man was the Divine Emperor!
They had a superior and subordinate relationship, but it didn't matter to him.
The Divine Emperor was his benefactor, allowing him to see a light that he had never seen before, allowing him, who was lonely, to have many people serving him.
Even though those people were very respectful to him, at least the Divine Palace was not as empty as it used to be.
He worked even harder to pass on the Great Dao of Pleasure, until —
He witnessed the birth of a baby with his own eyes.
He, who had never seen a new life, was very curious about the birth of this little fellow. He stayed in that plane for two years until the baby learned to walk. He also heard words that he had never heard before.
Mummy!
It was also from then on that he knew —
The birth of any life was related to the existence of a mother. He envied the harmonious family of three and couldn't help but have a question that he had never had before.
How was he born in this world?
Him?
Does he have a mother?
The Divine Emperor! He must know!
When he thought of this, the Divine King of Pleasure stopped his preaching journey and returned to the Divine Race like a meteor. He waited for three whole months before seeing the Divine Emperor.
He asked this question expectantly, but in the end —
"You don't need to know this. You only need to know that you are the Divine King of Pleasure, and that you bestow joy to all living beings."
This was what the Divine Emperor said to him. His tone was very gentle. If an ordinary person heard this, they might think that the Divine Emperor was as gentle as an older brother.
But to the Divine King of Pleasure, he had never felt the warmth of a family.
The Divine Emperor's answer was not gentle to him, or rather, he didn't know what it meant to be as gentle as an older brother. To him —
He didn't answer.
He didn't ask further because he had already lived for several tens of thousands of years. He was no longer a child and knew that even if he asked, he wouldn't get an answer.
He began to search for it himself!
He returned to the plane of that family of three and stayed there for several tens of thousands of years. He had witnessed with his own eyes the continuation of the family of three, the birth of new lives, and the passing of old age. He watched as the family of three gradually became a small local family, watched as the children bustled about, watched as the elders were either strict or kind.
Laughed.
For some reason, the Divine King of Pleasure felt his heart empty.
After a long time, he found out —
It was called loneliness.
Loneliness was like a demon that constantly hollowed out his heart. He became hysterical and kept asking himself why he couldn't remember who his mother was.
To fill the void in his heart, he came into contact with art.
It was a very kind old sculptor.
The Divine King of Pleasure felt the emptiness in his heart being filled, but how could the void of familial love be filled by a single sculpture?
Later, he went to question the old mother who showed him the birth of new lives. At that time, the woman was already a peak expert of that plane, but she couldn't answer him. Later, he killed her —
Her children and husband, and the entire family began to take revenge on him.
They cursed him as a demon!
But they forgot that a long time ago, they worshiped the Divine King of Pleasure as a celestial being and named their children by the Divine King of Pleasure.
What made the Divine King of Pleasure strange was that they all knew that provoking him would only result in death.
But they still fought him with all their might.
After a long time, he found out —
This was called familial love!
Was it familial love?
The Divine King of Pleasure sneered, his expression ferocious.
Jealousy could change a person beyond recognition!
He was jealous of these people and their beautiful families. He was jealous that they had parents and children. He was jealous that they knew where they were born and where they would die.
He massacred the people of that entire plane, including the old sculptor who gave him a taste of art.
Little did he know, this kind of massacre made him feel a rare sense of joy.
It got out of hand.
Through the six lands, no plane was spared.
He became more and more crazy, even alarming the God Emperor. When the God Emperor questioned him why he did this, he asked the God Emperor where his family was.
The God Emperor was silent, but the Divine King of Pleasure felt like he knew everything.
He didn't ask again, just smiled indifferently and left.
But —
From that moment on, a seed was planted in his heart.
The God Emperor!
He was determined to be the God Emperor!
