(The first two chapters were not clearly explained and have been revised. You can read them again. First, the Heavenly Marriage Stone binds lives; if one dies, the other will be obliterated by a mysterious force. Fang Xiu avoided this obliteration by using his ethereal transformation. Second, the divine spark did not explode; it remained intact. The explosion was merely caused by the impact of the divine spark.)
Faced with the threat of a true god, Fang Xiu smiled, a chilling smile: "Not killing me is the greatest leniency you can show me? What if I don't hand over my godhood?"
"Then I'll have no choice but to kill you and take your divine status." The god in the heavens spoke calmly, as if he were talking about something trivial.
"Oh? Then you're welcome to give it a try."
Fang Xiu narrowed his eyes, his gaze as cold as lightning, his deep and icy eyes seeming to pierce through the heavens and land on the gods hidden behind endless dimensions.
At this moment, Jiang Mengyue stepped forward, standing in front of Fang Xiu and facing the deity directly.
"Kill me before you kill him! Don't you want me to become the new Moon Goddess? I'll agree as long as you don't kill him, otherwise I, Jiang Mengyue, will never become a god!"
"There is no room for discussion on this matter. We, the gods of the Nine Provinces, cannot possibly watch a future demon god grow up right under our noses."
Jiang Mengyue was extremely anxious and hurriedly said, "He and I have long been bound by the Heavenly Dao. If he dies, I will die too."
In order to save Fang Xiu's life, she even revealed the matter of their predestined marriage.
Upon hearing this, the Nine Provinces God above the sky fell into a brief silence, seemingly pondering the pros and cons. A future demon god and a future immortal god were bound together; how should they choose?
After a moment, the God of the Nine Provinces slowly said, "Regarding the matter of the Heavenly Marriage, the gods of the Nine Provinces can help you find a way. By gathering the power of the gods, it is not impossible to resolve the Heavenly Marriage."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Mengyue's expression changed drastically upon hearing this: "You dare! Anyone who dares to shake my feelings for Fang Lang, I will commit suicide immediately!"
Jiuzhou God: "......"
“We have already given him a chance. As long as he agrees to give up the divine status of Bahui, he can save his life. If you can persuade him to turn back, that would be even better.”
Jiang Mengyue's eyebrows furrowed, and she said angrily, "Why should I persuade him to change his mind? As Fang Lang's woman, I should naturally prioritize Fang Lang's opinion and unconditionally support him, rather than arbitrarily influencing his will!"
"So you'd rather go against the decision made jointly by all the gods of the Nine Provinces than try to persuade him?"
"Roar!" Jiang Mengyue raised her head and stood tall, meeting the gaze of some deity in the sky without flinching.
Kyushu God: "......"
Sometimes, even the gods are speechless when they see love that is blind to the extreme.
"In that case, I have no choice but to offend you."
As soon as the deity finished speaking, the wind and clouds changed color. The clouds in the sky surged like ocean waves, and a gale suddenly rose. A giant golden hand suddenly emerged from between the clouds, its entire body seemingly made of divine metal, with mysterious patterns flowing on it.
The giant golden hand blotted out the sky and extended from the depths of the clouds, seemingly infinitely long, descending from the heavens like a pillar, grabbing towards Jiang Mengyue.
Feeling the terrifying power contained in this giant golden hand, Jiang Mengyue's expression changed, and without thinking, she raised the Moon Wheel and placed it in front of her.
The moon's arc is curved, resembling a crescent moon, or even a bowstring pulled to its limit.
Jiang Mengyue held the moon wheel in one hand and made an arrow-shooting gesture with the other. Moonlight condensed in her hand, and an extremely thin silver-white thread appeared at both ends of the moon wheel. That was the bowstring formed by the moonlight. At the same time, a silver-white light arrow condensed.
A powerful divine force surged forth, flowing into the silver-white arrow, and then the arrow was shot out!
boom--!
The void in front of Jiang Mengyue suddenly exploded, and the light arrow, like a dazzling silver meteor, pierced through the sky and shot towards the golden hand.
The divine power covering the arrow of light was so immense that it could crush everything in its path, surpassing even the ultimate level of a demigod.
However, when faced with that golden giant hand that fell from the sky, Jiang Mengyue's all-out arrow seemed as fragile as a child's toy, like a toddler shooting an arrow at an adult's palm with a plastic toy bow, causing no pain or itch at all.
The silver arrow of light shattered with a bang the moment it touched the giant golden hand, turning into a shower of silver light that scattered across the heavens and earth.
The next second, the giant golden hand landed squarely above Jiang Mengyue's head, bursting with dazzling golden light and instantly transforming into a golden cage that firmly imprisoned her within.
Ding ding ding!
Jiang Mengyue kept attacking the golden cage with her moon wheel, but to no avail; she couldn't break the cage's seal at all.
The true god's power is undeniable, so strong that it is not even on the same level as a demigod. This shows that being a demigod does not mean being half a true god, but is simply self-aggrandizement.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, please rest inside for a while. After I remove the Ba Hui divine core from Zhou Qingfeng's body, I will release you. Also, please rest assured, I will not harm his life. I will simply remove the divine core and abolish his cultivation, completely eliminating his chance to become a demon god." The God of the Nine Provinces said indifferently, then turned his gaze to Fang Xiu.
Jiang Mengyue's pretty face flushed red with anxiety. She gripped the railing tightly with her delicate hands and shook it desperately: "Stop! Stop it! Is this how you gods treat your benefactor? If it weren't for him, the Nine Provinces would have become eight provinces long ago! You are heartless and ungrateful!!"
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, your mind has been completely swayed by love, which is why you are biased towards him. If you think about it calmly, you will understand that what happened today was not the work of the gods of the Nine Provinces who were repaying kindness with enmity. We were protecting the Nine Provinces and the human race. Destroying a future demon god is beneficial to the Nine Provinces and the human race. We have done nothing wrong.”
The God of the Nine Provinces valued Jiang Mengyue highly, after all, she was the future Moon Goddess. Especially after the God of Cloud Heaven betrayed the Nine Provinces and they lost a true god, Jiang Mengyue's importance was self-evident. That's why He patiently explained to Jiang Mengyue to avoid any future misunderstandings.
As for Fang Xiu, He didn't care about him at all. If He hadn't cared about Jiang Mengyue's attitude, He would have killed Fang Xiu and taken away the Ba Hui Godhood long ago. After all, killing someone is easier than crippling them.
"You're not wrong, so why is he wrong?" Jiang Mengyue cried out, her voice like a cuckoo's mournful cry, filled with despair and bitterness: "He saved Yunzhou, what wrong has he done?!"
The God of the Nine Provinces remained silent: "He's not wrong, we're not wrong, but..."
