Chapter 578: Big Sister, It's Time To Get Things Done

Plain-Skirt Destiny furrowed her brows. The next moment, she waved her sleeve, and the aura shattered into nothingness along with the pair of eyes in the abyss. A few moments later, a heart-wrenching scream echoed from the abyss.

Plain-Skirt Destiny then extended her right hand, reaching out into space.

Boom!

A spacetime rift manifested at the tip of her hand, and a tall man clad in armor was dragged out of the spacetime rift. Plain-Skirt Destiny flipped her right hand, and the man was forced on his knees with a loud boom. The man couldn't move at all.

He looked up at Plain-Skirt Destiny, and his eyes were filled with fear as he stammered, "Y-y-you..."

Plain-Skirt Destiny stared contemptuously at the man and said, "Kneel."

With that, she turned around and walked away with the man in white.

After an unknown period of time, Ye Guan finally opened his eyes. He sat up quickly and found himself among the clouds. A towering gate made out of white jade was situated not too far away from him.

The Lady of Sin was standing nearby as well and was staring at the towering gate, seemingly lost in thought.

Ye Guan walked up to her and asked, "Where are we?"

The Lady of Sin stared at Ye Guan and replied, "We're in the First God World."

Ye Guan frowned, looking a little puzzled as he asked, "First God World?"

The Lady of Sin nodded and explained, "The Divine Painting brought us here; the Divine Painting is one of the three great treasures of the Divine Temple during the First God's era. I had no idea that the First God World is actually inside the painting."

Ye Guan's curiosity was piqued. "First God World? Is it related to the First God?"

"Of course," the Lady of Sin explained, "The First God made it himself, and the First God World is also known as the Divine Temple. However, the First God World vanished without a trace after the conflict within the Temple of the Gods."

Ye Guan turned to look at the white-jade gate. He could vaguely see a few palaces and buildings beyond the gate."So, we were dragged into the world that exists only in the Divine Painting?"

"Yes." The Lady of Sin nodded and said, "Yes, it turned out that there was a god-general at the bottom of the abyss. The starry abyss we were in is called the Trial Abyss, so I didn't expect that there would be a god-general residing at the bottom of it."

"Are god-generals powerful figures from the First God's era?" Ye Guan asked. The Lady of Sin was right; the ancient books contained little to no useful information, which was why he knew very little about the First God's era. On the contrary, the Lady of Sin seemed knowledgeable about it.

The Lady of Sin nodded and explained, "During the First God's era, there were a total of three hundred and sixty god-generals. Naturally, they were extremely powerful. Unfortunately, the inner conflict within the Temple of the Gods forced them to choose sides. The majority of them died while others simply disappeared—"

"Lady of Sin..." Ye Guan chimed in.

The Lady of Sin stared at Ye Guan and said, "My name is Ah Jia."

"Lady Ah Jia, what exactly happened during the Great War of the Gods?"

Instead of replying, Ah Jia walked away.

Ye Guan followed closely behind her.

After a while, Ah Jia calmly said, "There was a group of people who wanted to change the order and become the new Gods, but there was another group of people who didn't want to change the order at the time. They wanted to keep upholding the order that the First God had established and wait for his return."

"His return?"

"They firmly believed in the First God's return."

Ye Guan was silent. The First God is exceedingly powerful to the extent that I doubt whether he can truly die or not. I actually think that he's immortal.

However, the First God had chosen to self-destruct. If someone as strong as him wanted to greet death, it was unlikely for them to come back to life.

Ah Jia added, "The others believed that the First God would never return, so they wanted to become the new Gods. Hence, both sides started fighting each other. In the end, many new Gods appeared in the vast expanse."

Ye Guan realized that those who wanted to change the First God's order had ended up emerging victorious.

"Those supporting the First God were either killed, suppressed, or exiled. At that time, there were many, many Gods. Of course, they were self-proclaimed quasi-gods. However, they didn't remain united for long.

"Another war erupted within the Temple of the Gods..."

"Did the Sin Continent's God keep on supporting the First God's order even after the latter's self-destruction?" Ye Guan asked.

Ah Jia nodded.

Ye Guan frowned. "If that's the case, how did it earn the name 'Sin Continent?'"

"Well, history is written by the victors, isn't it?"

"Ah, I get it now."

"I thought you were from the Divine Academy, but it seems that you're not so simple."

"I'm from the outside world."

"From the Time River?"

"You know about the Time River?"

"From what I know, it is extremely difficult—almost impossible for people from the Time River to come here."

"It was okay."

Ah Jia took a good look at Ye Guan.

"Lady Ah Jia, have you all been waiting for the First God to return?" Ye Guan asked.

Ah Jia nodded. "Yes."

"Do you really believe that he's going to come back?"

"That's not important. What's important is that we have faith."

Faith! Ye Guan finally understood what was going on. They were currently at a disadvantage; how else could they persevere without faith?

Perhaps the return of the First God was the only remaining ray of hope in their hearts.

Ah Jia and Ye Guan chatted until they arrived before a grand hall. The grand hall was magnificent and was adorned with jewels. A faceless statue stood before the grand hall, and it was the statue of the Faceless God!

Ah Jia stared at the statue and said, "I've never met the First God, but I've met his Divine Servant. His Divine Servant is extremely powerful, and he has always believed in the First God..."

"Divine Servant?" Ye Guan asked.

"Those people in the Temple of the Gods who had proclaimed themselves to be Gods were disciples of the First God. They are known as Divine Servants. It was only after the First God's disappearance did they start calling themselves Gods.

"When the Sin Continent's Divine Servant was defeated in battle, he was exiled to the Sin Continent and was labeled as a rebel. Of course, it's not strange. The world has always been like that. The victors become kings, while the defeated become villains."

Victory was justice...

Ah Jia and Ye Guan's expressions suddenly changed. The painting on both sides of the grand hall's entrance transformed into two beams of golden light that shot toward them.

Ye Guan swiftly drew his sword while Ah Jia brandished her spear.

Boom!

The two were blasted a few kilometers away.

When Ye Guan stopped, he looked down at his right arm and saw that countless cracks had appeared all over his skin. Surprised, he looked into the distance and saw two burly figures clad in golden armor standing at the entrance of the temple.

The two burly figures each wielded a colossal axe and were emitting a terrifying aura.

Ah Jia's face fell. "God-generals!"

One of the god-generals said, "You are approaching a sacred place. Outsiders are prohibited from entering this place. Leave at once."

Ye Guan was a bit surprised by the god-generals' human-like demeanor and manner.

Ah Jia put her hands together, and a myriad of light orbs rushed out of her body.

The two god-generals were taken aback.

One of them frowned and said, "A Divine Disciple..."

Ah Jia bowed slightly and explained, "God-generals, my companion and I have mistakenly entered the Divine Painting. We kindly ask that you escort us out."

The god-general on the left shook his head and said, "The Divine Painting is not under our jurisdiction. Our duty is to guard the Divine Temple. You two must leave immediately. Do not stay here."

Ye Guan glanced at the Divine Temple, but it was shrouded in a mysterious power that did not allow him to take a peek inside.

Ah Jia used Profound Sound Transmission to speak to Ye Guan. "Let's fight our way in."

Ye Guan was shocked, and he looked at Ah Jia.

Ah Jia calmly explained, "There must be divine treasures inside. Otherwise, there would have been no reason for them to protect this place. There might even be some artifacts that the First God had left behind."

Ye Guan was hesitant. "They seem rather polite."

If the god-generals had been arrogant and rude to him, Ye Guan wouldn't have any reservations about fighting his way into the Divine Temple.

However, the god-generals were so courteous to him that he felt bad about fighting them. He had always believed in reciprocating kindness. If someone showed him respect, he would show them even more respect in return.

Ah Jia glanced at him and said, "There are divine treasures, but that's not all. There are also strands of Ancestral Origin, and the legendary Ancestral Vein might even be in there."

Ye Guan's curiosity was piqued. "Ancestral Vein? What is that?"

"It refers to a spiritual vein that can produce strands of Ancestral Origin. An Ancestral Vein is practically extinct, but here... Have you not noticed yet that the spiritual energy here is quite unusual?"

Ye Guan took a moment to examine his surroundings. Soon, he was stunned. Indeed, he could indeed sense the unique fluctuations of Ancestral Origin amidst the spiritual energy. It wasn't that pure, but it was undeniably present.

Is there really an Ancestral Vein here?

Ye Guan looked at the Divine Temple and contemplated in silence.

"Are we going to fight our way in or not?" Ah Jia asked once more. She was too weak to fight the two god-generals by herself, but they stood a chance with Ye Guan's help.

After a moment of silence, Ye Guan shook his head and said, "I refuse."

Ah Jia asked, "Why?"

"I'm a man of principle," Ye Guan replied.

Ah Jia stared deeply at Ye Guan before saying, "There might be more than one Ancestral Vein here. Otherwise, the spiritual energy here wouldn't contain a trace of Ancestral Origin.

"There's also the high possibility that there are divine treasures here—divine treasures that the First God had left behind... Are you sure you don't want to go for it?"

Ye Guan shook his head again.

Ah Jia frowned at the sight. Is he really going to stick by his principles despite the possible rewards?

Ye Guan opened his palm just then, and the tiny pagoda appeared in his hands.

"Big Sister, it's time to get things done."

Little Pagoda had no idea what to say.
