At this point, An Le paused for a moment, feigning a serious expression, "But even if I told you, you probably wouldn't believe me." Since he asked who she was, it meant that the man genuinely didn't know her identity, which was why he asked her that.
Perhaps she asked out of curiosity, so she might as well give herself an identity; maybe that would fool the kid.
This thought suddenly popped into Anle's head.
"Go on," Xianji said, listening intently.
Anle bit her lip, instantly conjuring up an identity for herself in her mind. With an indescribable expression, she pondered and carefully crafted her lie.
"Actually, if I were to reveal my identity, could you please help me conceal it so as not to alert the people of Apocalypse?"
I just wanted to quietly experience the various aspects of life in this ordinary city, and I didn't want to cause any sensation in this Tianqi Kingdom.
So you absolutely must keep what I'm telling you a secret for me.
Xianji's attitude was very gentle. "Okay."
Anle's eyelids drooped dejectedly, and the story of Zeus, the king of the gods in ancient Greek mythology, instantly formed in his mind!
They decided to use him as the mythological backdrop to tell a tragic backstory.
"Sigh, I'll just tell you the truth. Actually, I'm just here in the mortal realm to gain some experience. I am also the daughter of a god-king. Although you may think I'm a capable person in this world, in the divine realm, a goddess like me is nothing. Compared to my brothers and sisters, my little tricks are not even worth mentioning."
My father, Zeus, was the king of the gods in the ancient Greek pantheon, and also the god of thunder.
Thunder and lightning are his weapons. As the daughter of Zeus, the third-generation god-king, I also possess my father's divine abilities and the inheritance from him, and naturally, I also possess the divine power of thunder and lightning.
That's why I had such swift and decisive power to deal with the Tang family.
Xianji listened with a blank expression, seemingly deep in thought, yet his understanding of the gods was completely different from his own.
There is absolutely no such god-king among them.
Seeing Xianji deep in thought, and perhaps afraid that he wouldn't believe her, Anle raised her hand to demonstrate her unique ability.
The arm was covered with a net-like blue-purple electric light, which wrapped around it.
The ability displayed caused Xianji to pause for a moment, remaining silent, seemingly somewhat skeptical.
What people believed in was her ability, and what they doubted were her completely baffling words.
Seeing his skeptical look, Anle continued.
“My father Zeus was a notorious womanizer. He married many goddesses and had affairs with many mortal women, fathering many children. My mother was just one of my father’s women. Although I am outstanding in your eyes, in the realm of gods, there are many goddesses like me, and I am nothing special.”
After spending some time here, I found it quite nice and enjoyed living here, so I decided to settle down here temporarily.
As for that ancient tree, I was just helping it; I've already sent it to the realm of gods.
Here, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth in this mortal realm can no longer benefit it, and can no longer meet its nutritional needs. There is no point in continuing to stay here. Only a place like the divine realm can allow it to continue to grow. So I decided to give it a hand and sent it away.
All I did was to fulfill its desires.
Even if you ask me for it again, I don't have it. I can't possibly get it back; wouldn't that just be harming it?
When Anle said this, Xianji was stunned.
Is that so?
However, that ancient tree has indeed developed sentience and wisdom.
"I've only told you my identity, so you absolutely mustn't tell anyone else. Also, let's leave the matter of this ancient tree here and not mention it again."
As for the Tang family, they deserved it. They actually locked up my uncle and framed him for their own selfish desires, claiming that he stole someone's national treasure. What nonsense! It's just a fabricated charge.
That thing isn't some national treasure of Saros at all, it's just something I gave to my uncle, something I brought from the realm of the gods.
I merely used my identity as a goddess to punish the Tang family, who have caused so much harm, and to teach them a small lesson.
And the purpose of doing this was simply to get them to release my uncle.
He was, after all, my uncle in name only, and it was because of the gifts I gave him that he was imprisoned in the dungeon.
I can't just stand by and watch my uncle die, can I?
Xianji felt that he had lived for thousands of years and this was the first time he had felt so confused and disoriented.
It seemed to confuse his understanding with everything he knew.
Seeing Xianji's even more bewildered and confused expression, Anle was satisfied. Ha, little brat, no matter how good you are, you're still fooled by her lies.
Unless this kid has mind-reading abilities.
Otherwise, there would be absolutely no way to see through her fake identity.
Because, after all, the ability she used was real.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly not talking? Didn't you want to find out about my identity? I've already told you about my background, so why are you making that face?" Anle asked Xianji, seemingly puzzled.
Xianji hesitated for a moment before speaking weakly.
"As far as I know, among the kings of gods throughout history, there is no god as you described."
Anle was taken aback. "Huh? No?" Holy crap, this kid even knows about this stuff? Could he really be some kind of psychic?
"Then... could it be that you've made a mistake?" Anle asked tentatively.
He remained silent and still. This kind of cognition had already formed into consciousness and had always existed in his sea of consciousness, so how could he be wrong?
"Um... well, don't think about things you can't figure out. In short, as a goddess, I won't act recklessly, and I won't use my power on mortals casually."
"As long as others don't infringe on my interests or try to harm me, I won't hurt anyone. You can rest assured about that." Anle hesitated to continue making things up. Who knew what kind of nonsense was going on in this kid's head?
She feared that if she continued to fabricate stories, she would make more mistakes and create more loopholes.
That kid might see through us.
Feeling a little unsure, Anle changed the subject, "Um... you didn't call me here just to find out who I am, did you?"
Upon hearing the sound, Xianji looked up and glanced at Anle.
"I want you."
Anle sighs, here we go again!
What do you want me to do?
