Hades is certainly no pushover. Having previously suffered at the hands of Archangel Anadiel, today he was set on settling the score!
While he lacked the power to slay a high-ranking god-king, embarrassing Archangel Anadiel in front of so many leading figures was definitely within his capabilities.
Archangel Anadiel was furious. True, he feared William the Obliterator, but Hades was essentially trampling on his dignity in front of all the gods!
"Hades! Even if you are a disciple of William the Obliterator, do you really think you can humiliate ?" Archangel Anadiel coldly stared at Hades and said, "Proud angels cannot be insulted!"
His words were not just for Hades but also aid at Poseidon and Zeus, among others!
Poseidon and Zeus, hearing Archangel Anadiel's words, really didn't take them seriously.
Can't a disciple of William the Obliterator insult you?
Hades is not only a disciple of William the Obliterator but also their brother!
If their brother wants to bully soone, especially soone like Archangel Anadiel who has been poaching their followers, of course, they would help!
"Ah, Anadiel! If you feel insulted, then fight back, but don't drag others into this. I'm not on good terms with you!" Poseidon shouted directly, "Hades is my brother, and if you dare harm Hades today, we'll see if my Trident agrees with you!"
Having said that, he had already summoned his Trident, ready for action!
Suddenly, in front of Zeus appeared a mysterious sphere enveloped in crackling arcs of electricity, with a spiral storm eye inside a transparent crystal ball, emitting a terrifying intent to kill.
The sudden support from the two high-ranking god-kings for Hades scared the other gods away.
"Anadiel! Try laying a finger on him!" Zeus, too, was determined. If Anadiel dared to touch Hades, he and Poseidon would join forces to take down Archangel Anadiel directly.
With such a strong stance from the two high-ranking god-kings, Anadiel took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over Zeus and Poseidon, and said, "Both of you are high-ranking god-kings. If you act against , have you considered how the Cosmic Entity would react?"
Hades was also surprised. Were these two high-ranking god-kings really backing him up like this?
He rembered the relationship among the three brothers being just average in the past.
He had even been turned away when visiting Zeus before, and now Zeus was willing to go head-to-head with Archangel Anadiel for him?
Poseidon disdainfully said, "Even if we're restricted by the cosmic laws set by the Cosmic Entity and dare not kill you, giving you a beating is definitely not a problem!"
"Exactly!" Zeus nodded, not saying much more.
Previously, he and Poseidon had been considering unifying the entire Divine Realm.
Now, with Hades stirring up trouble and claiming to be a disciple of William the Obliterator, they took it as an indication that taking down Archangel Anadiel was William the Obliterator's will!
Setting everything else aside, attacking their brother in front of them?
Would it really be too much to give Archangel Anadiel a beating for this?
Archangel Anadiel was becoming annoyed, but his mind started to work faster.
Being a high-ranking god-king, a being whose soul is immortal and recognized by the Cosmic Entity, he would be reborn even in the event of death.
Most importantly, since the rebuilding of the Divine Realm, the Cosmic Entity had conveyed a ssage to the high-ranking god-kings: they must not directly engage in combat with each other. The first to initiate conflict would be stripped of their high-ranking god-king status.
Archangel Anadiel glanced at Poseidon and Zeus. If they acted against him today, even if they killed him and he was reborn, the two high-ranking god-kings would be stripped of their status by the Cosmic Entity, losing their current position and divine power!
Perhaps, the mont the two high-ranking god-kings acted, they would lose their status, significantly diminishing their power.
In that case, would two individuals stripped of their high-ranking god-king status still be a match for Archangel Anadiel?
If he could provoke them to act first, might he be able to seize their top-tier artifacts and divine powers?
As for Hades, even if his master was William the Obliterator, William the Obliterator wouldn't dare kill him!
Enduring a beating in exchange for the top-tier artifacts of two high-ranking god-kings, and perhaps even seizing their divine auras, seed like a fair trade.
With this in mind, Archangel Anadiel's eyes glead eagerly as he reached for the Seven Treasures Staff in Hades's hand, arrogantly stating, "This Seven Treasures Staff was originally mine. Today, it returns to its rightful owner."
"Hades, for your insolence today, in consideration of William the Obliterator, I'll let you off with a slap! Mind your actions in the future!"
As Archangel Anadiel spoke, he had already picked up the Seven Treasures Staff and activated his divine power, attempting to use the Seven Treasures Staff again, only to discover... he could no longer use it!
"Hmm?" Anadiel was shocked to find that he could no longer use the artifact once bestowed upon him by God. The Seven Treasures Staff seed to only recognize Hades...
When William gave the Seven Treasures Staff to Hades, it effectively reauthorized the user, making the artifact Hades's.
Archangel Anadiel's attempt to forcibly break William's restriction was impossible.
Hades laughed, delighted that this fellow really tried to take the Seven Treasures Staff!
And he wanted to slap him?
Go ahead!
It didn't matter anymore!
With the backing of two high-ranking god-kings, if Anadiel really did slap him today, he likely wouldn't end up well.
Thinking about the artifacts on Archangel Anadiel potentially becoming his, Hades felt a bit excited.
"Co on! Hit ! Hurry up!" Hades, instead of being angry at having the Seven Treasures Staff snatched, joyfully presented his face to Archangel Anadiel.
The gods watching from a distance were dumbfounded. Damn, Hades really had no sha!
To provoke a high-ranking god-king like this?
Most importantly, the attitudes of Poseidon and Zeus were too unusual!
Would the two high-ranking god-kings really strike at Anadiel if he slapped Hades?
The gods were ready to flee at any mont. A fight between these high-ranking god-kings would surely be earth-
shattering, possibly harming them in the process.
Hades was truly foolish to be so arrogant. If a fight broke out, he would be the first to suffer.
A battle among high-ranking god-kings would not bode well for the weaker gods caught in the middle.
Archangel Anadiel, not caring about the consequences, had his own plans and raised his hand to slap Hades.
In that instant, William suddenly appeared in front of Hades, extending his hand to swat away Archangel Anadiel's hand, asking, "He is my disciple; do you think you have the right to hit him?"
Archangel Anadiel withdrew his hand, his body involuntarily trembling.
The gods in the distance beca even more excited.
Among those present, who hadn't been beaten up by William the Obliterator?
They all knew how formidable William the Obliterator was, but naturally, they wouldn't spread the word about their own beatings.
They were also unaware that those around them had been beaten too, let alone understanding just how powerful William the Obliterator really was.
"Hey! Has William the Obliterator really co back?" Hers laughed, "It seems like Archangel Anadiel is sowhat afraid of him! Could it be that he was beaten by him in the past?"
"I think that's quite possible!" Hephaestus also laughed.
"It looks like we won't have to intervene." Poseidon winked at Zeus, "Brother, what do you think Anadiel will end up looking like?"
"Boring!" Zeus gave him a look and said, "I think it's going to be pretty bad!"
Poseidon knew his older brother's temperant well and asked, "So, do you think his artifacts will be taken?"
Zeus scoffed, "Taken? I don't think it's necessary!"
Poseidon pondered Zeus's words carefully. Hmm, he had a point. With William's power, was there a need to take anything by force?
