Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

Xu Ran, Gu Yuena, and the Life Goddess were all top-tier powerhouses.

However, aside from them, Xu Ran's side couldn't find any other strong allies.

If one person were to be separated to protect those around Xu Ran, then there would only be two people left capable of fighting. Naturally, this was not acceptable.

Moreover, in terms of top combat power, he was now not inferior to the Divine Realm. But the First-Level Gods, Second-Level Gods, and a host of divine officers in the Divine Realm were also capable of fighting. And the Divine Beasts, ever since the fall of the Dragon God, had been marginalized.

All the powerful Dragon Kings of the Dragon Clan had fallen.

So, to have a falling out with the Divine Realm now was to fight single-handedly.

"Gu Yuena. Don't think I'm doing this for you. Even if you died, I wouldn't care. I'm worried about Xu Ran. If Xu Ran were to be bewitched by you, this enchantress, and recklessly oppose the Divine Realm with you, ending up shattered to pieces, that would be bad. Xu Ran has a family; he has many women. If anything happened to Xu Ran, many people would be heartbroken." The Goddess of Kindness said somewhat haughtily. She felt that her concern for Xu Ran was not for herself but for the sake of the others around Xu Ran.

"That's between Xu Ran and me, what does it have to do with you, you white lotus?"

"Xu Ran loves me so much, he would naturally stand with me on the same battlefront," Gu Yuena huffed petulantly.

"You!"

"I think you're just using Xu Ran, wanting Xu Ran to help you. You don't truly like Xu Ran; you're only with him because you value his demonic talents," the Goddess of Kindness fumed.

Hearing Gu Yuena speak of her relationship with Xu Ran, she felt a pang of jealousy, and her emotions became unusually agitated.

"How dare you slander my feelings for Xu Ran? Are you seeking death?"

Gu Yuena was incensed.

In her heart, Xu Ran's importance even surpassed becoming the Dragon God.

If she truly couldn't become the Dragon God, as long as Xu Ran was safe and sound, she actually didn't mind.

The past her hoped to grow into a powerful figure, and it was because she didn't have anyone she liked that she so desired strength. But now, having witnessed the beauty of love, her longing for power had also lessened considerably.

If she became the Dragon God but lost Xu Ran, what would be the point?

Xu Ran was the most important in her heart.

She was just holding her breath, feeling that until she could suppress the Divine Realm, she wouldn't be content.

Besides, was it really her who wanted to take action against the Divine Realm?

With Xu Ran's pride, how could he tolerate a powerful Divine Realm above him? Even without her, Xu Ran would find a way to kill the other gods and become the supreme ruler.

Moreover, Xu Ran had so many confidantes who needed godhood. As more and more women gathered around Xu Ran, how could he ascend to the Divine Realm with so many if he didn't control absolute authority?

So to say, in truth, it should be said that she was helping Xu Ran deal with the Divine Realm.

This was beneficial for both her and Xu Ran.

Both Xu Ran and Gu Yuena knew this; only the Goddess of Kindness had failed to see through it. After Xu Ran said he was not interested in becoming a god last time, the Goddess of Kindness really believed it.

Therefore, she felt that the only unstable factor in Xu Ran's opposition to the Divine Realm was Gu Yuena.

"Gu Yuena, I kindly pointed out a clear path for you, yet you're so ignorant of what's good for you. You want to die and even drag Xu Ran down with you. How dare you claim to love Xu Ran as a femme fatale?"

"Nonsense. I think you're the one who's fallen for my Xu Ran. Shameless. You already have a lover and now you're coveting my Xu Ran," Gu Yuena berated furiously.

Gu Yuena's pretty face turned red with anger as she attacked while speaking her mind recklessly.

"You! Shameless! How could I possibly have such thoughts?"

Dressed in a white gown, the Goddess of Kindness floated in mid-air, surrounded by pure energy, moving with utmost grace, likened to an unparalleled fairy. At that moment, hearing Gu Yuena's words, her face flushed red, and her heart thudded wildly.

"Whether you have that thought, you know in your heart. Hmph, attacking me and trying to steal my husband, Goddess of Kindness? Is this your true face? Now I see, all of you in the Divine Realm put on airs, a bunch of hypocrites," Gu Yuena continued.

Soul beasts have always been straightforward and lacked complex thoughts.

Otherwise, the Dragon God wouldn't have died so easily back then.

Just by hiding for a while and defeating the gods one by one, the Five Great Supreme Gods would have been powerless against the Dragon God. But the proud Dragon God chose to face off against the five supremes at the same time, and died. Who's to blame?

However, this straightforward nature also made soul beasts extremely indifferent toward the Divine Realm and human Soul Masters.

"I didn't."

Panic filled the Goddess of Kindness's beautiful face, and she hurriedly retorted.

"You didn't? Then what were you doing last night?" Gu Yuena said mockingly. Originally, Xu Ran had advised her to leave some dignity for the Goddess of Kindness and not to let this matter out, suggesting that if it had to be revealed, it should only be done implicitly.

Such a person like the Goddess of Kindness, innately kind-hearted and extremely thin-skinned, would be utterly mortified if she knew Gu Yuena and Xu Ran were aware of such a shameful matter. It would probably make it more difficult to win her over later.

But now, constantly being persuaded by the Goddess of Kindness and mistaken by her for using Xu Ran, her most cherished relationship was being questioned. How could she hold back?

However, she didn't have any other leverage on the Goddess of Kindness to bring up, so she naturally let the matter slip out.

Gu Yuena's words struck the Goddess of Kindness's heart like a thunderbolt from a clear sky.

Visibly, her porcelain profile turned pale in an instant, and her large eyes seemed to swirl with tears.

It's all over.

Everything's over.

The Goddess of Kindness was completely stunned; she didn't know what to do now.

Was she discovered? How would she live after this?

She has always cared about her reputation and how others saw her, hence she has always been strict with herself and lenient with others. In fact, she had always had a good reputation in the Divine Realm.

And now, it's all gone.

If this incident got out, what would people think of her? Then, she would be labelled as that kind of shameless woman.

The Goddess of Kindness was utterly terrified, especially when she thought of her incompatible relationship with Gu Yuena, who would surely make a big deal out of this issue. It's likely that Gu Yuena could spread this matter to everyone.

"I didn't, I was just resting last night," said the Goddess of Kindness, lowering her head and speaking softly like a child who had made a mistake. That weak tone was devoid of any confidence.
