As the current celestial being in charge of human affairs, Bingfeng should have personally led the team to the mortal realm. However, for some unknown reason, he did not come in person but instead delegated the task to his deputy.
—A radiant and beautiful, voluptuous female deity surrounded by rosy light.
The goddess was dressed in a pure white long dress with a Greek style. The soft fabric covered her vital parts, but large areas of her fair skin were still exposed.
Bathed in the light she carried, her skin appeared even whiter and her aura even more serene.
The goddess's status is not as noble as Bingfeng's, and she cannot have a name of her own, only a code name—Xi Jiu.
The single-digit code name indicates that He is quite powerful among all the code-named gods.
Therefore, Bingfeng asked her to lead the team.
Xi Jiu was very confident in her own strength. What she feared was nothing more than the God-Slaying Token in Zhang Lin's hand. She didn't take Zhang Lin's strength seriously at all.
It's said that Zhang Lin has the God-Slaying Token, so she doesn't dare to confront him directly, but would she be afraid of a sneak attack?
"Set off!"
"Kill that mortal!"
After Xi Jiu descended to the mortal realm, she floated in the air, looked around at the scenery, her brows furrowed, her face full of disgust and disdain.
He did not want to come to the filthy human world.
But I had no choice but to come in order to carry out the mission.
Zhang Lin is the target of the mission.
In other words, it was because of Zhang Lin that she had no choice but to come to the human world.
Therefore, she harbors deep resentment towards Zhang Lin, the culprit. Now that she has quietly descended to the mortal realm and has the upper hand, she doesn't take Zhang Lin seriously at all. All she wants to do now is finish her mission as soon as possible, then return to the divine realm and continue living her good life.
A large group of gods set off.
Unlike the tension they felt last time when they tried to enter the human world through the fixed passage, this time, all the gods were completely relaxed.
You're just a lowly human, yet you possess a God-Slaying Token. I wouldn't dare confront you head-on, but surely I could kill you with a sneak attack?
Although they were quite relaxed, they still obediently concealed themselves when they got close to Hope City.
A group of gods floated in mid-air, looking down at the city below.
"It's nothing short of a miracle that mere mortals, with limited resources, could build such a city in the post-apocalyptic world we control."
Xi Jiu said something with a mocking look in her eyes.
The reason for the mockery is that this miracle will soon be destroyed by His own hands.
Even mortals who can create miracles are still mortals.
They were destined to be no match for the gods.
The reason why they feared Zhang Lin, a mere mortal, was simply because he possessed the God-Slaying Token, which was also a creation of the gods.
The gods are high above.
When have they ever taken humanity seriously?
"Lord Xi Jiu, look, isn't that Zhang Lin?"
A male deity approached Xi Jiu as if presenting a treasure, pointing to a place below Hope City. That place was Zhang Lin's residence. He was sitting under a tree in the courtyard, holding a small child in his arms, gently swaying his arms, and singing a nursery rhyme, seemingly to lull the child to sleep.
This was supposed to be a beautiful scene.
But Xi Jiu sneered, not even glancing at the male god beside her, and waved her hand, saying, "Hurry up and let him end his blissful moment. This is the mercy of us gods."
Upon hearing this, the male deity's face was filled with worship and admiration. "As expected of Lord Xi Jiu, your benevolence is enough for this mortal to be eternally grateful to you!"
Xi Jiu looked down, ignoring his subordinates' flattery, and instead activated his ability. The energy of the sun gathered in his hand, ready to be unleashed at any moment to destroy the city below.
The other gods were also prepared to make their move.
Make your move!
Let's act together!
Zhang Lin only had one spot to slay a god, and no one wanted to act alone. So, they all tacitly attacked together, each using their unique skills and unleashing their full power to completely destroy the city below, leaving no survivors.
However, before the gods could use their ability to turn the tide, they suddenly found themselves unable to move.
It was as if time had stood still; everything around them, except for their thoughts, remained frozen.
This terrified all the gods.
However, there was something even more terrifying to them—
A man suddenly appeared before them.
Zhang Lin!
The gods had a thousand questions in their minds, but none of them could voice them. In the stillness, even though their hearts were filled with turbulent emotions, their expressions remained unchanged.
He still had the same arrogant expression as before.
His arrogance, which disdains mortals, is mixed with fear of Zhang Lin, as well as a sense of relief and liberation at the prospect of killing Zhang Lin.
Killing Zhang Lin would liberate them, and the world would return to their control.
Zhang Lin was kind-hearted. Although he didn't know what they were thinking, he was willing to help them find relief.
then--
He waved his hand!
All the gods vanished into thin air!
Even the most powerful of them, Xi Jiu, had no ability to resist and disappeared from the world without leaving even a trace of ashes.
The previous God-Slaying Tokens, when used to kill gods, would leave some traces, but now that Zhang Lin has taken action, they have left no trace at all.
Zhang Lin stood suspended in mid-air, looking at his palm.
