Actually, the moment he heard this news, Qin Yi's first reaction was suspicion.
This was because he had been in contact with the Divine King for so long, but he had never seen the Divine King treat anyone so well other than Zhuge Zichen.
The key was that Zhuge Zimo was a person he suspected before, and he might still be suspecting him even now.
However, regardless of whether he was suspicious or not, it was also a fact that the Divine King had temporarily given the power to decide the Deity Race's plan of action to Zhuge Zimo before he went into seclusion.
To be honest, if he was suspicious of Zhuge Zimo, he wouldn't have done such a thing.
It would be too far-fetched to say that he was testing him.
After all, it was an extremely stupid idea for a person to hand over the decision-making power to test him.
This was because once this person obtained the decision-making power, he might do things that were not beneficial to him. After all, the decision-making power was in his hands, and he could also take the opportunity to complete some things that he couldn't do before.
Without a doubt, if he really suspected Zhuge Zimo and wanted to test Zhuge Zimo, he would definitely not hand over this power to Zhuge Zimo.
If things were really as he suspected, and if Zhuge Zimo were to unite the entire Deity Race to deal with him after obtaining power, wouldn't he be in great danger?
The Divine King looked like he didn't care about these things on the surface, but in reality, he was an extremely cautious person in this aspect.
Obviously, he wouldn't make such a decision without confirmation.
It was also because the other party made such a decision that Qin Yi felt extremely puzzled.
One had to know that if he really suspected Zhuge Zimo, such a situation wouldn't have happened. But if he believed Zhuge Zimo, why did he treat him so coldly before?
The current Divine King really surprised Qin Yi.
Of course, this surprise didn't mean that the way he handled things made Qin Yi feel that it was rather incomprehensible. On the contrary, the reason behind it might make people feel that it was very important at the beginning.
However, as long as one calmed down and thought about it, one could easily get the answer.
Clearly, the Divine King knew that during this period of seclusion, the Deity Race needed someone who could stabilize the situation and control the overall situation.
The Deity Race was already in troubled times. If they didn't have a qualified decision maker, it was very likely that they would fall apart in the end.
Although he was ruthless to outsiders, it could be seen from today's events that his concern for the Deity Race was unimaginable.
It was absolutely impossible to give the position of acting Divine King to someone other than his direct bloodline.
After all, within the Deity Race, there were many ambitious people who wanted to become the Divine King. Once he gave these people this benefit, it was very likely that the Godking's throne would have nothing to do with him after he came out of seclusion.
If he wanted to find his direct bloodline, the only two people left were Zhuge Zimo and Zhuge Zichen.
If it was in the past, he would definitely choose Zhuge Zichen without any hesitation.
After all, he had always been his most beloved grandson. In fact, his initial wish was for Zhuge Zichen to replace him as the new Deity King.
In order to achieve this goal, he didn't even hesitate to kick out his trusted bodyguard, Zhuge Hanchi, who had followed him for many years.
Obviously, now that he had such an opportunity for Zhuge Zichen to gain experience and give him a chance to gild his reputation, he definitely wouldn't let it go.
On the other hand, although Zhuge Zimo was very capable, in his eyes, he was still a person who wasn't well received.
If it was in the past, he definitely wouldn't give this task to Zhuge Zimo so easily.
However, now, he actually backed down and actually personally called Zhuge Zimo to his side, handing over such a matter that concerned his future to Zhuge Zimo.
Obviously, he also made this decision after weighing the pros and cons.
This was because he knew that the grandson he favored, Zhuge Zichen, was actually not someone who could achieve great things. It could even be said that Zhuge Zichen wasn't someone who could become a Divine King.
If he were to hand the Deity Clan over to Zhuge Zichen just like that, the Divine King suspected that the Deity Clan would become a mess in the future.
The Divine King knew that this matter definitely couldn't be sloppy.
In the past, he might have made such a stupid decision out of selfishness.
However, now, he didn't know if it was because the blow he received from Qin Yi was too great, but this actually made him calm down.
Actually, how could he not know how great the risk of letting Zhuge Zichen become the Divine King was after being a Divine King for so many years?
In the past, he thought that he was invincible in the Hundred Chuan Region and that no one could cause him any harm or go against his will.
However, in the battle with Qin Yi, he gradually realized that his dominance was gradually declining. Not to mention outside, even in the Hundred Chuan Region, there were already people who posed a threat to him.
The threat that Qin Yi posed to him also made him gradually realize how high he was. He also knew that he definitely couldn't continue acting willfully and recklessly like this.
If he were to lose, he would at most lose some face, although his own face was also very important to him. However, if the Deity Clan were to be crippled in the hands of Zhuge Zichen, then he, the Divine King, would really become a sinner for all eternity.
Obviously, after weighing the pros and cons, in the end, his rationality still won over his subjective emotions.
To be honest, letting Zhuge Zimo help to manage the Deity Clan was equivalent to nurturing him as the successor of the Divine King.
It had to be said that what the Divine King did this time surprised Qin Yi, and at the same time, he also thought more highly of the Divine King.
Although the Divine King had made serious mistakes in many matters, and sometimes even made Qin Yi feel that he wasn't suitable to be the Divine King, there was no doubt that the current Divine King still had some merits.
Of course, Qin Yi still didn't plan on telling Zhuge Zimo about these things.
Zhuge Zimo was already a mature person now, and he was very clear about what the responsibility he was shouldering now meant.
If he were to tell him now that the Divine King was paving the way for him, it would instead give him pressure.
