An Ge sighed regretfully. The battle had just taken a toll on the divine power of the soldiers of the Divine Realm, and she wanted to buy them more time to catch their breath.
Although the new wave of evil soldiers are puppets, they are much stronger. Ordinary divine power has almost no effect on them, and An Ge's invincible power of the God of Misfortune has no room to be used.
However, after the battle, she discovered that the auras on these puppets were very familiar, including the power of demon gods, demon gods, and dark elemental power, which was a complete hodgepodge. This immediately reminded An Ge of the experiments that the Evil Domain had conducted.
"These puppets' power has been forcibly imposed upon them. Everyone stay calm, and we'll win once their power is exhausted," An Ge encouraged the troops.
Hu Jiu and Lu Yan exchanged a glance. "Xiao Ge'er, you stay here and oversee things from the rear. We'll take care of these."
Amidst An Ge's confusion, he and Lu Yan suddenly unleashed powerful energy, and in no time, the entire battlefield was filled with the power of demon gods and monster gods. Under the suppression of this power, the puppets, imbued with the power of demon gods and monster gods, lost their previous bravery and their movements were hindered.
The leader of the evil realm rang out angrily, "You actually obtained the inheritance of the Demon God and the Monster God? Those two guys really did have a trick up their sleeve." For hundreds of thousands of years, he had tried countless methods to obtain their inheritance but failed each time. In the end, he could only imprison them and use their divine power for experiments.
He originally thought that even if the experiment was not perfect, it would still be a success. However, when faced with the real demon god and monster god, the puppets he had placed his hopes on became useless.
Hu Jiuqing's cold voice came, "You went to great lengths and even tried to suppress your reason to reduce the control of your emotions, but you failed to realize that winning with fewer troops and overcoming the strong with the weak is not just about brute force, but about intelligence."
"Old Hu, why bother talking so much to that monster? These wretched bugs don't deserve the power of the Demon God. I can't wait any longer." After saying that, Lu Yan reached out and continuously drew away the power of the Demon God from the puppet. "Although the old Demon God is unreliable, he can only be bullied by us demons. I'll take back this power."
Hu Jiu also curled the corners of his mouth, "The same goes for the Demon God. No matter how unreliable he is, he can only be bullied by his own people."
Working together, the two quickly drained most of the divine power from the puppets, which possessed the power of both the demon god and the monster god. The gods who had been fighting these puppets immediately felt a sense of relief.
"Burp~ Too much power, I'm a bit full. I wish I had a Qiankun Bracelet like the shopkeeper." Lu Yan burped. If he hadn't been so full, he definitely wouldn't have wanted to stop.
Hu Jiu was also upset, feeling a pang of heartache as he looked at the puppets on the battlefield, as if a treasure had been wasted. "It's already an unexpected bonus. Gods shouldn't be too greedy."
Just as Lu Yan was about to nod, he heard An Ge shout, "Everyone, hold back when you attack! Puppets with the power of demon gods and monster gods are valuable. Don't kill them all at once!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the gods, who were originally focused on eliminating these two types of puppets, suddenly changed their focus, extending fists the size of sandbags and transforming their magical attacks into physical attacks.
Seeing the changes on the battlefield, An Ge gave Hu Jiu a smug smile. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and took action the moment she heard their conversation.
"Can't a god be too greedy?" Lu Yan teased Hu Jiu.
Hu Jiu said smugly, "But sometimes the bold get rich, and the timid starve."
"You fickle opportunist!" Lu Yan was speechless. Sure enough, as long as it involved the store manager, Hu Jiu would have no principles whatsoever.
Looking at the two whose strength had increased dramatically, the Dragon God said with regret, "If only these puppets had the power of the Dragon God." As soon as he finished speaking, he received strange looks from the surrounding gods.
Su Xinhe sighed, "Now I understand that the Demon God would rather lose a powerful race than admit that the Dragon God is a demon."
"What do you mean by 'Su Xin'? What did I do?" Long Yutian retorted defiantly.
"If the puppet possesses the divine power of your race, it means that the Ancestral Dragon might also be imprisoned like the Demon God and the Monster God. What do you think if the Ancestral Dragon knew your thoughts?"
"Pah, pah, pah! My ancestor is doing very well, who knows where he's having a good time right now. Children say the darndest things, my ancestor certainly won't blame me." Long Yutian realized his mistake and quickly denied it three times.
In a corner of the battlefield, the demon god, whose strength was limited and whose body had not yet recovered, looked at Hu Jiu with emotion, "As expected of our chosen successor, he is too respectful to us."
The demon god said quietly, "Although it is true, I feel uneasy hearing their words. What do you mean they are the only ones who can bully us? We are demon gods and monster gods!"
“Watch your wording. It’s the former Demon God and Demon God. I’ve finally handed over this responsibility. Whoever wants to be the Demon God can be. After the war is over, I’m going to enjoy myself at the inn. You know, we can’t really help much, so we might as well go back to the inn. I haven’t finished watching my TV series yet.”
Seeing the Demon God sigh, the Demon God rolled his eyes. "No wonder the Demon Clan's power struggles are so fierce; it turns out it's a lineage passed down through generations."
The demon god retorted, "It's much better than none of you demons wanting to take that position. Besides, I'm just a little unaccustomed to it right now."
"You haven't looked like a demon god in hundreds of thousands of years, what's there to be uncomfortable about?"
Upon hearing what the Demon God said, the Demon God thought it made sense. "Old Demon, I'm not as good as you in some ways. Let's just enjoy our retirement from now on."
“We will definitely take care of the elderly, but that guy has kept us locked up for hundreds of thousands of years, and we’ve done nothing about it. Can you swallow that?”
"Of course we can't swallow it, but we're the old, weak, sick, and disabled people that An Ge mentioned. Going up there would only cause them trouble. What else can we do?"
The demon god was silent for a moment before suddenly saying, "Old demon, do you still remember the first great war that broke out after the war of the gods?"
The Demon God's words pulled the Demon God's memories back to a long time ago, right after the war between the two realms ended. No, to be precise, at that time there was no distinction between the Evil Realm and the Divine Realm; it should be the war between the Evil God and the Righteous God.
The evil god was defeated, and the divine realm was cleaved in two by the battlefield of the gods. On the other side of the battlefield, without powerful life force, even immortals could not stay for long. This is why the divine realm could not operate in the evil realm after the war between the two realms began.
The reason why Hu Jiu and Lu Yan were able to penetrate deep into the Evil Realm was inseparable from An Ge's life force.
"Old Demon, you're full of clever ideas. Just tell me what you're thinking."
The Demon God shook his head. "I'm wondering, why is the Divine Realm divided? Our Divine Realm has a Divine Spirit, so what about the Evil Realm? Does it have one too?"
The demon god frowned. "So?"
The demon god took a deep breath. "Forget it, what's the point of me talking to you? Your only advantage now is that you live a long life. I'm going to find An Ge."
The demon god was displeased. The old demon was still the same after all these years, always liking to speak in riddles when it came to important matters. He wanted to see what kind of tricks the old demon was up to.
