Li Xuanzu appeared directly at the Parthenon in Yacheng.
As one of the divine kingdoms, Greece attracts many people to worship at its various temples, especially the most representative Parthenon.
The towering stone pillars exuded majesty, and Li Xuanzu stood atop them, looking down below.
"Hey, kid! Get down here!"
A third-tier psychic responsible for maintaining order was the first to spot Li Xuanzu and shouted at him.
The crowd below was also drawn by the sound and looked in the direction of Li Xuanzu.
"Get down here! The Parthenon is not a place for you to play around!"
"What's wrong with you people? How can anyone just climb up and down this place like that?"
"That's not right, that person doesn't seem to be from our country of Greece."
A psychic with sharp eyesight was the first to notice something amiss.
"Not from Greece? What does that mean?"
"Who cares what country he's from? Make him come down right now! What if Goddess Apat sees him..."
Before the crowd below could continue their clamor, some psychics and divine messengers were already preparing to drive Li Xuanzu away.
Li Xuanzu looked at the innate spirits around him, whose forms were all similar, with a playful gaze, and slowly raised his hand.
"stop!"
An angry female voice rang out.
However, it was too late. The innate spirits of those third-tier divine envoys were grabbed by an invisible hand and crushed.
Pale golden fragments scattered from the sky.
If you ignore the screaming messengers and the grim-faced psionicists below, it's quite a sight to behold.
"Li Xuanzu!"
The female voice rang out again, and its owner revealed herself.
It was Apate, the goddess of deception, whom Li Xuanzu had met in the Sai Kingdom before.
"I can hear you calling me."
Li Xuanzu, like a rogue, picked at his ear and then blew on his fingers.
"Is this the typical way your Dragon Kingdom operates? Killing people without asking any questions!"
Although Apate is a goddess, she seems to still retain human emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and it is not hard to tell that she is very angry.
"My children just wanted to get you down, they didn't attack, why are you so cruel?"
Apate adopted a questioning tone, her handsome appearance enhanced by anger.
"Why? If we have to ask why about everything, then we might as well not do anything at all, right?"
Li Xuanzu spread his hands, looking completely innocent, but his tone carried a hint of teasing.
"Stop talking nonsense. I can kill whenever I want, and do whatever I want. Who are you to judge me?"
"Why do you still ask why? Why don't you go ask the people of Dragon Kingdom who died because of you why they died?"
"I said this a month ago, and I'm too lazy to say more. A bitch is a bitch, hypocritical and hypocritical. Where is the blood I want?"
Li Xuanzu was so angry at Apat's remarks that he laughed.
He's feeling wronged?
Apate never expected Li Xuanzu to be so unreasonable as to say such things, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
But Li Xuanzu interpreted this action in a completely different way.
"Not ready? Fine, I'll get it myself."
Without giving Apat a chance, Li Xuanzu's blood continued to flow backward until it condensed into a blood-red sphere with a diameter of more than 100 meters in the air before stopping.
"You dare!"
Apate reacted and the floating phantom flew quickly toward Li Xuanzu.
As if in response to Him, the crimson sphere exploded, completing an artificial rainmaking operation.
But this "rain" has been replaced by blood.
People who came into contact with the blood quickly screamed in agony, as if they had been splashed with scalding hot oil.
However, it didn't last long, because the blood in their bodies was rapidly disappearing, until they no longer had the strength to open their mouths and make any more sounds.
"Li! Xuan! Zu!!!"
Apate was completely enraged, practically spitting out a few words through clenched teeth.
"Our attack on Kyoto didn't cause you much damage at all. Don't think I don't know that nine out of ten of those people died at your hands."
"Do you know how many people in the Kingdom of Ser have died because of you? You've sucked their blood, you've killed people, and I didn't even stop Eris from being kidnapped by you."
"I've prepared all your conditions, so what exactly do you want?!"
With each word Apat spoke, his aura gradually intensified.
The last sentence was even slurred, making Li Xuanzu's eardrums ache.
Apate's phantom—no, it could no longer be called a phantom—was a projection of divine power that had almost solidified into a physical form, and His body no longer emitted light.
"Even a rabbit will bite when cornered! Li Xuanzu, you have insulted me and harmed my people. Today, I will risk my own demise to tear a piece of your flesh from you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a strong gust of wind, whose source was unknown, swept in and carried the people on the field away.
"Tsk, is your tolerance for stress that low? You've gone too far."
Li Xuanzu scratched the back of his head, looking somewhat troubled.
His original plan was merely to test Apate's limits and see just how much patience she could have.
The result was that they had already blown up the opponent's account right from the start.
Before I could think any further, an extremely sharp longsword was already in front of me.
Li Xuanzu slightly turned his body, and the long sword fell into empty space.
Apate's attack missed, so she flipped her wrist and chopped to the side, using that force to launch another attack.
"Alright, alright, I'll apologize to you. Hurry up and take me to get the blood. You should know you can't beat me."
Li Xuanzu continued to dodge, always managing to react before Apat.
"Ha, you arrogant scum, prepare to die!"
Apate clearly had little combat experience.
Li Xuanzu spouted those nonsense words during the battle to distract his opponent, while Apat was clearly informing Li Xuanzu of her upcoming actions.
"That's enough. I don't want to kill you, but don't forget how Eris broke down and how she was imprisoned. I don't mind letting you go through it too."
A hint of impatience appeared on Li Xuanzu's face.
He was clearly in the right, so why do some people always act so righteous and righteous, labeling him as the "bad guy"?
Doesn't he look like a good person?
"Besides threatening the weak, don't you have any other legitimate means?"
Apate continued working with his hands while making sarcastic remarks.
Li Xuanzu's movements suddenly stopped, and Apat seized the opportunity, slashing his longsword directly at Li Xuanzu's shoulder, producing a buzzing sound of metal colliding with stone.
"I said... that's enough!"
Li Xuanzu shouted and grabbed the long sword that was cutting into his shoulder bone.
The longsword was indeed sharp; Li Xuanzu's hand, which was gripping the blade, was cut, and blood gushed out.
With another burst of strength, he snatched it from Apat's hand and ripped it off.
The blood that flowed from Li Xuanzu seemed to come alive, coursing through the longsword and soon turning it red.
With just a seemingly gentle squeeze, the longsword shattered into pieces.
Li Xuanzu's other hand was not idle either. Taking advantage of the moment when Apat lost his weapon, he grabbed her delicate neck.
"Don't push your luck, I won't fall for that."
Apate was being choked, and her body gradually solidified.
This is not that He is accumulating power, but rather that the source is being drawn away by Li Xuanzu.
