As the last ray of sunlight disappeared, Ange knew the time to summon had come.
As expected, Shi Xinyi, who had remained silent until now, placed the broken sword on the simple altar and began chanting incantations to the statue. Suddenly, a gust of wind swept across the altar, and with it, Shi Xinyi was enveloped in a dense aura of death.
Having received Su Xinhe's spatial power, An Ge could clearly feel the space around the altar being torn apart. A moment later, a figure emerged from the spatial tunnel.
Shi Xinyi was enduring the pain of the summoning ritual when she looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar woman and cried out excitedly, "Mother!"
Shi Jie looked at Shi Xinyi and quickly emerged from the spatial tunnel. The moment Shi Jie came out, Shi Xinyi collapsed to the ground, completely exhausted, and the spatial tunnel closed.
"Yi'er, you've worked hard." Shi Jie looked at Shi Xinyi with a hint of reluctance in her eyes.
Shi Xinyi shook her head. "What's a little hardship compared to my mother's great cause?" After saying that, she carefully observed her mother.
Her mother truly lived up to her reputation as someone chosen by the gods; time seemed to have left no mark on her. No wonder that even after all these years, the men in the capital still fondly remember her.
Thinking of those people, Shi Xinyi felt angry. "Mother, I don't know what's wrong with Father and Uncle He. They've been treating me very badly. Mother, please don't forgive them in the future."
Shi Jie's eyes flickered. She knew all too well why those people had changed their attitude. Not wanting to discuss the topic any further, she comforted Shi Xinyi, saying, "I won't let any of those who bullied us get away with it, especially that shop owner you mentioned. Once I take away her divine status, I'll let you experience what it's like to be a god."
Just as Shi Xinyi was about to nod, she heard a cold voice, "This store manager has come in person, saving you the trouble of making an extra trip."
"Who goes there?" Shi Jie exclaimed in surprise. When she saw who it was, her pupils contracted sharply, and she roared, "Yi'er, what's the name of the Chosen One you mentioned?"
In the few times they talked, Shi Xinyi always referred to Ange as "that woman who runs the shop." She thought she was just a chosen one without any combat attributes. She never expected that this chosen one would look so much like the God of Slaughter!
Shi Xinyi was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting her usually gentle mother to react this way. She stammered, "It seems her surname is An, and her name is... An Ge!"
"Your daughter has insulted me so many times, yet she's never told you my name?" An Ge was speechless and a little curious. Was there something wrong with her name? Why was Shi Jie reacting so strongly?
Now that she had a powerful backer, Shi Xinyi looked at An Ge's increasingly beautiful face and sneered, "Today is your death day. A dead person doesn't deserve my mother to know her name."
"Idiot!" Shi Jie cursed at Shi Xinyi. This was the person the organization had issued the number one wanted notice for. Now, who in the Evil God's Chosen camp didn't know that if they could hunt down this Chosen one named An Ge, the organization would directly make him a god?
For the chosen ones of the evil god's faction, this was an enormous temptation, but after learning about her actions, apart from a few top chosen ones who had ideas, the rest of the chosen ones dared not accept the mission.
This is someone who, even before becoming a god, utterly defeated Rhodes. I heard he also tricked several adults recently, provoking the wrath of the divine realm against the organization. Because of this, many of the organization's plans have been disrupted, and they're currently in a state of chaos.
When she first heard Shi Xinyi say that this shop manager only knew how to play tricks and hadn't shown any real combat power, and given that there were so many Chosen Ones with business attributes, she never expected to encounter this ruthless person.
Everyone was guessing that this evil spirit must be in a higher plane, but who would have thought that her base would be in such a low plane?
If she had known the news before, she would have been overjoyed. Although she couldn't fight the Fiend herself, she could still get news about him and receive a reward from the organization. But now, facing the Fiend in person, her feelings were completely different.
All resentment over destroying the luck bottle and the grand scheme of seizing the other party's divine status were thrown to the back of their minds. The most urgent task was to save their lives from this evil god.
Seeing Shi Jie's constantly changing expression, An Ge became somewhat curious, "What, are you afraid of me? Have we met before?"
"How could I possibly have seen a monster like you before?"
"Ah, so you've heard of me, and not from Shi Xinyi. Let me guess, you're from the evil god faction. Do you have my name on your organization? Are you going to issue a warrant for my arrest?"
It was just a joking guess, but Shi Jie's reaction was much stronger than expected, which surprised An Ge.
Goodness, I'm really wanted. According to Shi Jie, I'm called a demon god over there?
An Ge was a little angry. She was such a beautiful and carefree chosen one who was focused on running her shop, yet she was given such an unpleasant title. "Evil God is indeed despicable!"
Shi Xinyi was completely confused. It took her a while to realize that the person she thought she relied on was actually afraid of An Ge, which she found hard to accept.
For the past year, she had imagined countless times the scene of An Ge kneeling before her and begging for mercy. Now that her dream had been shattered, the madness in her eyes intensified. "Mother, she's just a Chosen One who runs a shop. Didn't you say that running a Chosen One's business is a waste? What's there to be afraid of about this waste?"
"Shut up." After saying that, Shi Jie seemed to regret it a little and comforted her, "Yi'er, listen to your mother's advice, we mother and daughter can't afford to offend this person. Quickly open the passage, and your mother will take you away from here."
Shi Xinyi was unwilling to accept this, but seeing the urgency in Shi Jie's eyes, her rationality gradually returned, and she realized her current situation. She quickly opened the spatial tunnel according to the summoning ritual, preparing to leave with her mother, when she suddenly found that she could not move.
"What did you do? Let me go!" Shi Xinyi yelled at An Ge.
An Ge rolled her eyes, looking completely innocent. "I didn't do anything. Don't pin everything on me." Then, she grabbed Shi Jie, who was trying to enter the spatial tunnel, and said to Shi Xinyi, "You should ask her what she did."
Shi Jie wanted to escape, but faced with overwhelming power, even using her divine power was futile. To An Ge's surprise, Shi Jie's divine power seemed to contain some resistance, though much less than Lu Qinghe's, but An Ge still managed to catch the occasional glimpses of emotion.
Could Shi Jie also be a chosen one created by God?
However, compared to Lu Qinghe, Shi Jie's power was clearly much weaker. It seems that even in the creation of gods, not everyone possesses the strength of Lu Qinghe. But the experiment of creating gods was undoubtedly more successful on Shi Jie than on Lu Qinghe. If it weren't for her sensitivity to aura, she might not have discovered that the godhood had been forcibly added to Yun.
An Ge felt a sense of urgency. If the Divine Realm didn't intervene soon, the Evil God would gain immense power once the experiment succeeded.
