Mu Lingxiao glanced at Hou Tu and said coldly, "Unfortunately, they only obey the orders of the missing spirit..."
The missing soul?
What's the meaning?
Hou Tu looked at Mu Lingxiao doubtfully, with turbulent waves in her heart.
A thought arose in his heart, but, how could it be possible?
Mu Lingxiao's cold and distant eyes fell on him, making him feel creepy.
The guess in his heart became clearer, and shock appeared in his eyes.
“…Who…are you?”
"Mu Lingxiao!"
"Mu Lingxiao... Lingxiao... you... you are not him?"
"Yes, I am not him, but I am the God of the Underworld!"
Mu Lingxiao spoke lightly, his voice was calm, but it sounded like thunder in Hou Tu's ears.
How is that possible?
They obviously look the same!
What went wrong?
He had never heard that Ling Xiao had a clone or twin brothers.
Hou Tu was thinking a lot. When Mu Lingxiao just returned to the God Realm, he did not show any abnormality, and he also helped Mu Lingxiao to continuously build his power.
In other words, Mu Lingxiao could use him at that time, but now... he can't?
When he thought of this, he stole a glance at Mu Lingxiao's expressionless and cold face, which made him feel scared for no reason!
Is he going to get rid of the donkey after it has done its job?
But if these two people are going to get rid of him, then why waste resources to save him?
Hou Tu was covered in cold sweats. The unpredictable ending was the most terrifying thing.
Lai Siyu smiled, pursed her lips and said nothing, while Mu Lingxiao stared at the thick soil with his calm eyes.
As if waiting for an answer.
The hall fell into a deathly silence, so eerie that Hou Tu could even hear the sound of her own cold sweat hitting the floor.
All the events flashed through his mind one by one. He lowered his head, not daring to look at Mu Lingxiao. There was a complex light in his lowered eyes.
He didn't think that the Corpse God and the Demon God could deal with the man on the throne. The legends of the Xiaoyao Clan were all true!
As the first follower and ally of Hades millions of years ago, he knows many things that other gods do not know.
If the person in front of him was still the same person from a million years ago, then he could continue to be his follower and ally.
But the question is, isn’t it!
In his opinion, the divine realm would be in Mu Lingxiao's pocket sooner or later. No, it wasn't sooner or later.
It's already in his pocket now, otherwise he probably wouldn't have revealed his cards to me.
In other words, he now faces a choice: surrender, or...
Mu Lingxiao would definitely not tolerate any forces in the God Realm that did not belong to him.
Bai Qi didn't have the ability at first, not because he didn't want to, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to just be the head of the Twelve Temples.
But now, he is the only main god left among the twelve temples, and Mu Lingxiao definitely has the power to kill him with a slap.
So, is there any need to choose?
Since this world and this divine realm are in Mu Lingxiao's pocket, then...
Hou Tu had already made up his mind. He took a few steps back and solemnly bowed to Mu Lingxiao and Lai Siyu: "I, Hou Tu, pay my respects to the Master! I pay my respects to the Mistress!"
"Stand up... From now on, you will still be the head of the Yangshen Temple!"
Hou Tu was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you, my lord!" He originally thought that the Yangshen Temple was no longer his, but he did not expect that Mu Lingxiao would still give him the Yangshen Temple and let him continue to be the master of the Yangshen Temple.
"Since you've become my subordinate, you'll pay tribute every hundred years. I'll send someone to calculate the amount with you... From now on, the hundred-year tribute will be handed directly to the mistress."
Hou Tu respectfully agreed. Since he had already surrendered, of course he had to offer tribute.
"Go back to the Yang Temple. You have to guard your own territory yourself!"
"yes……"
Hou Tu bowed to the two and left. When he was about to leave, Mu Lingxiao's cold and calm voice came from behind him.
"...your old friend, the former Hades...he possessed Bai Qi's body!"
Hou Tu's body stiffened upon hearing this, and after a moment's hesitation, she managed to utter, "...Thank you, my lord, for the information. I shall take my leave."
"From now on, we will stand at the top of this divine realm, so from now on, the necessary rules must be established." When there was no one else in the hall, Mu Lingxiao's voice suddenly became gentle.
Lai Siyu knew that Mu Lingxiao was explaining to her why he had to force Hou Tu to make a choice. After all, they had been getting along like friends before.
"...I understand that the height at which you stand is different, and the way of handling some things will also be different." After all, Lai Siyu is from the modern era. She has not learned the history of the Celestial Empire in vain, and she understands the principle that it is lonely at the top.
The higher the status, the more resources you can enjoy, but at the same time, the more dangerous it is.
After all, everyone in the world is looking at you.
All ambitions are aimed at the pinnacle of power... and they can't wait to replace it.
"It's a mess outside. When are we going out?" Lai Siyu nestled in Mu Lingxiao's arms and whispered.
"Of course, we will wait until everything has calmed down before leaving. If they can't even resolve this little thing, how can they rule the Twelve Temples in the future?
If you want the people in the divine world to truly submit to you, you have to rely on your fists.
He probably didn't expect that he originally wanted to activate the Corpse God and the Underworld God to cause me some trouble, but unexpectedly he helped us."
Mu Lingxiao's words made sense, and Lai Siyu continued, "Well, if Sister Mengqin and the others destroy the Corpse God and the Demon God, and save billions of lives from danger, then those people will wholeheartedly submit.
This way, firstly, we can show our favor and intimidate others, and thirdly, we can select useful talents from among them to expand our own power."
Mu Lingxiao nodded and said, "Yes, destruction precedes reconstruction. This catastrophe in the God Realm is inevitable! All changes of power are accompanied by killing. It was like this tens of thousands of years ago, it is like this now, and it will be like this in the future." Reality is so cruel. Sometimes, you have to fight for it. Once you fight, you have to fight to the end.
"Then I will recruit some people to take care of Void Island. Xiaoyao Temple is so big that it needs manpower."
"Well, whatever you want."
"Let's go and pick out where we'll live in the future." The Xiaoyao Temple is so big, we have to choose carefully.
Mu Lingxiao raised his eyebrows. Is this woman planning to live here for a long time?
But it doesn't matter, as long as she likes it.
As for the Temple of the Underworld... let's wait until the conflict in the God Realm is over and then give her a surprise.
The two walked out of the palace hand in hand. Lai Siyu sent out several messages in succession and sent Pan Jinlian to wait in the outer sea.
After all, without guidance, people from outside can never set foot on the Void Island.
Not to mention whether they have any way to avoid the void hurricane outside, now that Lai Siyu has revealed her identity as the queen of the Xiaoyao tribe, those sea tribes who are loyal to her will certainly not let outsiders set foot into the hurricane sea area.
