"Hiss ~ ~ ~"
On a street in the Central City, Shien, who was walking here while looking around with great interest, suddenly shuddered.
"Hmm?"
Lilith, who was in Shien's arms and had been looking around happily since the beginning, immediately tilted her head.
"I'm fine." Shien could naturally see the doubts of the little goddess in his arms. He touched her head and said to himself, "I suddenly have an inexplicable chill. Why?"
Shien fell into a long contemplation.
"Hehe."
Lilith seemed to find Sean's behavior amusing. She beamed with joy.
Shien suddenly pinched her cute little nose, as if to vent his anger, and then got rid of the inexplicable chill in his heart.
"There must be some wicked people thinking of harming me again. Forget it, I'll get used to it."
As the saying goes, one is not afraid of an itch when there are too many lice. Shien was extremely calm.
Of course, whether it was because he was truly unafraid or because he had already given up on himself, only he himself would know.
Glancing at the sky, Shien was deep in thought.
"It's already dark. Those demons should have finished their meeting, right?"
Then, it's time for me to go back.
"Okay, let's go back, Lilith."
Shien said to the little goddess in his arms.
"Hmm!"
Lilith naturally had no objection.
As long as Shien was there, it was her playground.
Therefore, Lilith did not feel nostalgic for the scenery on the street at all.
So, the two set foot on the road back to Supreme Castle together.
On the way, the Demons were all kneeling on the ground, looking at the full moon in the sky, and secretly chanting something with their eyes closed.
It was like a scene of believers praying sincerely. It really gave people a sense of déjà vu.
"Do I look very eye-catching like this?"
Shien walked with Lilith in his arms. All the Demons around him were kneeling on the ground, and he was the only one standing. It was simply eye-catching.
Fortunately, the Demons' eyes were closed when they prayed. Even when they heard Shien's footsteps, they did not open their eyes, so that Shien would not be stared at.
However, some Demons who had finished praying still more or less cast a strange look at Shien.
Although they did not look like they were looking at a pagan, they looked like they were looking at a foreigner.
"It seems that they regard me as someone who doesn't fit in here."
"It seems that they regard me as someone who doesn't fit in here."
Lilith, on the other hand, seemed to be a little sleepy. Her little head nodded as she lay on Sean's chest, and she soon fell asleep.
"You're really like a child."
Shien was amused, but he also tightened his arms around Lilith, helping the girl in his arms to keep warm from the wind.
In this way, under the dark night, Shien stepped on the moonlight and returned to the gate of Supreme Castle.
"Huh?"
At this time, Shien stopped.
It was because a figure, as if waiting for him, appeared at the entrance of the Supreme Castle.
"Finally willing to come back?"
The little girl hugging the pillow glared at Shien and said this unhappily.
Who else could it be other than Ai Yi?
"You were waiting for me?" Shien raised his eyebrows, stepped forward, and said very naturally, "Is your meeting over?"
"Ah, it's over." Ai Yi also responded very naturally, but from time to time, there would be a trace of complicated emotions flashing through her eyes when she looked at Shien.
Shien did not notice this.
He just felt a little sad.
"Didn't see this coming, did you?" Shien said with a faint smile, "We've only been apart for a few days, and we've become engaged."
When Ai Yi returned to the Demon Realm with Lide and Milu, she definitely did not expect things to turn out like this, did she?
Shien also felt that it was very strange.
Who would have thought that when they met again, they had already decided to stay together for the rest of their lives?
The world was unpredictable.
Of course …
"Who do you think you're to blame for this?" Ai Yi narrowed her eyes and stared at Sean for a while. She said, "If you hadn't casually exposed your identity, how would things have become so complicated?"
Shien really wanted to protest against Ai Yi's statement.
"Do you think I want to?" Shien rolled his eyes, "Who would have thought that an Emperor's concubine, a descendant of Elayi, could use a secret treasure left by a Supreme God to reach the transcendent level of power?"
In that kind of situation, if Shien did not use his full strength, he would most likely be defeated by Mara's final attack.
Instead of becoming like that, Sean naturally had to use all his strength regardless of everything and get through that tribulation first.
Ai Yi would definitely understand this.
However, she still wanted to complain.
"I've only left for a while, and you've already encountered such a huge problem. If I had known, I would not have returned to the Demon Realm."
Ai Yi almost said, "You can't do it without me."
Shien rubbed his nose in frustration.
"Who would have thought that with Lilith around, I would still encounter such a huge problem?"
Shien was also helpless.
In this world, a Transcendent Level existence could destroy the entire universe. With Lilith by his side, Sean didn't think that anything could go wrong.
Moreover, his own strength was not weak. Why would he be afraid of opponents below the transcendent level?
It could be said that no matter who knew about Shien's situation, they wouldn't think that something bad would happen to him.
As it happened, Sean and Lilith both suffered a setback under the circumstances where the other party was scheming against them.
Who could they reason with?
"Great Spiritual Body?" Ai Yi also knew that she couldn't blame anyone. She could only frown and mumble, "Although I've already heard about the whole thing from you, I'm still a little surprised even now."
It couldn't be helped.
"Since ancient times, other than those like us who were born with the qualification to reach the transcendent level, only the brave could break through the limit of life and enter the transcendent level. Under the rules of 'Truth', other beings couldn't break through and reach this level."
"Even the guy in the [Original Demon] was born a half-demon and had the qualification to reach the transcendent level. He didn't rely on himself to break through."
"Now, a Necromancer who survived from the hands of Anima thousands of years ago actually created an existence that could break through the limit of life. If such an existence didn't actually appear and succeed, I definitely wouldn't believe such a thing."
At this moment, even Ai Yi could not help but sigh.
"Well, that's just a trick." Shien spread his hands and said, "The opponent borrowed the power of the supreme secret treasure to successfully reach this step. It can't be considered as breaking through by himself."
"That's true." Ai Yi thought for a while and nodded in agreement, "Since it involves the Supreme God, it's possible no matter how unbelievable it is."
The title of the almighty goddess wasn't just for show.
In this world, there was nothing that the goddess couldn't do.
Even the rules of the [World's Truth] were created by the almighty goddess. Wasn't the so-called limit of life something that she could play around with?
If it weren't for the fact that she had gone into hibernation, she could probably create a transcendent level existence with a wave of her hand.
The only thing that could make the goddess helpless was the Demon King.
The power of the Demon King was something that even the almighty goddess couldn't do anything about.
The reason why the Omnippertansen was divided into three worlds — the Human World, the Demon World, and the Divine World — was because the Demon King had cut the world into three parts before he died. The result of his power was something that even the Supreme God couldn't interfere with. Therefore, the almighty goddess could only divide the Omnippertansen into three worlds, which became the dwelling places of the gods, humans, and demons respectively.
If the goddess was willing, she could instantly turn the possessor of the Great Spiritual Body or the half-demon into a transcendent level existence, right?
If that was the case, it wasn't surprising that the original physical body that the goddess left in this world had the power to help the Great Spiritual Body take that crucial step forward.
To the Overgods themselves, this was most likely an insignificant item, but to others, it was a true treasure.
"No matter what, since there's another restless powerhouse in this world, we should also be careful."
Ai Yi stared at Shien and warned him.
"Your identity is special, and you have a grudge with those guys. Those guys must be watching you in the dark. Don't go missing if you have nothing to do. Don't run around as you please, do you hear me?"
Obviously, Ai Yi was worried sick for Shien.
On the other hand, not only was Shien not warned, he even showed a fearless smile.
"I actually hope that they can all jump out and deal with me in one go."
As an old bookworm who had resisted god knows how many poison points, Shien had to say that he was most annoyed by these villains who only knew how to play tricks in the dark and didn't dare to come out and face him head-on.
Although the actions of brainless villains seemed to make people lose their wits, at least it was easy to deal with. Wouldn't it be over after a while?
If you play tricks in the dark, do you think the readers will think that this is a boss with brains and charm?
No, a real boss with brains and charm would never show up and use all kinds of tricks. When he showed up, the general situation was basically set. He would directly come out and face his opponents head-on, taking them away in one go. That was what a real villain was.
And this guy who looked awesome when he showed up, but in the end, he could only run away with his tail between his legs and continue to play tricks. That wasn't called having brains and courage, it was called a centipede that died but didn't fall down. It was pure disgust.
If it was possible, Shien really hoped that those guys would quickly jump out so that he could take them away in one go and directly end the book, so that people wouldn't always talk about it …
Ai Yi looked at Shien strangely, as if she could see a sense of resentment from Shien.
But then, Ai Yi seemed to think of something, and her eyes became complicated again.
"Hey."
In the next second, Ai Yi suddenly opened her mouth and said such a sentence.
"Have you ever thought about what kind of person you are?"
The strange words stunned Shien on the spot.
