Chapter 1415: Chapter 1377: Deceive and Swindle_2
“Teacher, how did you deal with your relatives?”
“If you asked other questions, I might be able to give so answers, but you’ve really asked the wrong person this ti. Such troubles are sothing I’ve never experienced.”
Muria stroked his chin, “When I was born, I already stood at the peak of countless spirits. My paternal and maternal clans, as well as my wife’s clans, were among the most powerful in the world. If they united, they could have restructured the world’s order without any issue. So, I really can’t give you any advice on this matter.”
“Is that so.”
Hearing Muria’s words, Jiuli sighed but didn’t show too much disappointnt. He had so understanding of his teacher’s identity, like the form his Teacher first revealed in front of him was a golden-eyed black-scaled dragon. This was a disguise, sothing Jiuli was aware of.
“Actually, you could be more extre, turning your wife and mother into your saints and having them reside forever in your Divine Kingdom. That way, unless you fall, they would never be in any danger.”
“Let’s not do that—if I did, would they still be who they really are?”
Jiuli shook his head without hesitation, rejecting Muria’s suggestion. Then, he promptly changed the topic.
“Teacher, did you co to see
today because you needed sothing?”
“I did have sothing and wanted your help, but seeing your life now, I feel a bit reluctant to disturb you.”
Nad Mirror, in reality, it was a Wheel, the Divine Artifact was flickering in and out of visibility behind Muria, allowing him to grasp everything in the Domain without moving an inch.
“Teacher, please speak.”
Jiuli stood up, his expression grave and serious. He was soone who knew his place. Although he acknowledged this Teacher forcibly, he was truly kind to him.
If it wasn’t for this Teacher, the seemingly casual gifts, he would never have reached this point, at least not so quickly.
“Hmm, since you asked. Then I won’t be polite,” Muria rely pondered for two seconds, then cast aside his reserve and began to explain, “Do you know about the situation outside?”
“I’m unaware of that. Since I sealed all the Portals, except for the Domains where my faith exists, I can’t go to other places.”
Jiuli answered slowly. He genuinely knew nothing about the outside because his sealing of the Domain was two-way: not just preventing outsiders from entering, but also preventing insiders from leaving.
And it was precisely his decision to seclude his Domain like a closed-off nation that ensured its peaceful and tranquil atmosphere, unaffected by any external strife.
But precisely because he was well aware of how strong his blockade was, he was surprised to see his Teacher capable of appearing before him.
“I see, then let
tell you about the current situation.”
Muria nodded and then described the situation in the Cluster World where now multiple Gods stood side by side.
“The world has undergone so many changes? According to what you told , only those who attend the Council of Gods have the right to divide the world, otherwise, they’re just lambs awaiting slaughter?”
“Yes, that’s the real reason why the Council of Gods could convene and end successfully. The Deities that attended reached an agreent on this aspect, first eliminating the Gods outside their circle, and then dividing the world based on their own qualifications.”
“If that’s the case, then…”
“Don’t worry too much. The two minor Divine Systems you provoked, none of their Deities were qualified to attend the eting, so they are among those being distributed.”
“That’s good.”
Jiuli breathed a long sigh of relief, and the shadows in his eyes also dispersed a bit. This had been a concern since he beca a God; back then, he was young and impetuous, taking advantage of the chaos between two major Divine Systems to seize thirteen Domains under their rule.
Such actions, Jiuli certainly did not regret; it was the existence of these Domains that gave him the confidence to sever all contacts with the outside world and quietly develop his own strength.
His concern was about the revenge those two Divine Systems would exact in the aftermath. But now it seed that he had no need to worry; he had hardly done anything, and his forr enemies were already finished—no need to fret.
“Never let your guard down until your enemies have truly fallen,” he cautioned.
Seeing the relaxed expression and much lighter mood of his student, Muria struck him hard with his words,
“Don’t think that just because they didn’t attend the Conference of Gods they are dood. As Divine Beings, they have plenty of options. At worst, they could compromise and beco Subordinate Gods to so Powerful Divine Force and still lead a rich life, just not as freely as before.”
“Teacher’s lesson is right, but what should I do now?” Jiuli openly expressed his worries.
Although he had seized the Domains of those two Divine Systems in the past, which was sowhat unethical, such matters couldn’t simply be judged as right or wrong, or viewed through the lens of good versus evil—it was far too naive.
“Co with ,” Muria answered without a hint of hesitation. “In this great change the world hasn’t seen in ten thousand years, you shouldn’t hide here; you should get involved.”
“But, I…” Jiuli hesitated, not responding imdiately.
Frankly, he didn’t want to leave. His life was so rich now that even his vastly powerful teacher envied him, of course, he was sowhat reluctant.
However, those two Divine Systems he had taken over were like two needles in his heart, causing him restive nights. He wouldn’t be able to sleep peacefully until they were completely defeated.
“I’m not afraid to tell you that I am currently at war with another Divine System, and its chief Deity is an original Divine Spirit who existed in Ancient Tis with profound heritage. Fighting them, I am finding it a bit hard, and I want you to go there and help .”
Muria frankly disclosed his purpose. He disdained cloak-and-dagger sches and deceit, knowing that even if they worked temporarily, they ultimately cost a lifeti’s credibility.
“Once I achieve victory in this war, my influence will be able to expand further. As for those two Divine Systems you’re worried about, just one command from , and there will naturally be forces that will help you eliminate them.”
“…” Hearing Muria’s words, Jiuli fell silent. He had fully understood the hidden aning in his teacher’s words.
Helping you handle your concerns, but at a significant price.
There are no free lunches in the world, a concept Jiuli always understood. Moreover, such straightforward words reassured Jiuli.
“How about it?” Muria asked with a friendly smile, his tone gentle.
“Teacher, this is still too sudden, could you give
so ti to think it over?”
“Of course,” Muria expressed understanding, but made clear, “However, bear in mind that the war is ongoing. I won’t linger here long as I must return to lead.”
“I…”
“Think it over and then answer. If I lose this war, that Sun Deity will certainly take action to settle accounts with all related to . If you’re lucky, nothing will happen, but if you’re unlucky, you might get implicated too.”
Muria decided to put a bit of pressure on this young one, lest he fail to see the gravity of the situation.
After all, this young Divine Spirit’s tenure as a god had been too short, re fractions of the years he had existed; he needed a bit of guidance from his teacher.
“…I’m willing to go with you.”
After such a conversation, what else could Jiuli say? Declining would just seem foolishly timid.
“Good.” Finally hearing a clear answer, Muria’s smile grew even warr.
