Chapter 891: Chapter 888: Grasping the Goddess of Kindness_1
"Humph. I sensed your divine consciousness yesterday, did you think those sneaky things you've been doing could escape my eyes? If my strength hasn't been restored before, maybe I wouldn't have been able to detect your presence. But now, my strength has surpassed yours."
"The Goddess of Kindness herself turns out to be such a shameless woman, I really see you clearly now," Gu Yuena huffed lightly and continued, delivering a great blow to the Goddess of Kindness.
"You..." The Goddess of Kindness became even more panicked, looking at Gu Yuena with a face so pale that not a trace of color remained.
"Tell me, what do you think will happen if I tell the Evil God about this? And what about the other gods of the Divine Realm, if they learn about these matters? You, Goddess of Kindness, will become quite famous, indeed." Gu Yuena's smile was even more radiant, as if it could charm all beings. Floating in midair, her laughter shook the blooms, and her silver hair flew with the wind. Dressed in a long white feather dress, she had the charm to captivate a city with her smile.
As a supreme strong, her thoughts and emotions could also influence others.
Looking at Gu Yuena's incredibly beautiful smile, everyone was mesmerized.
And Xu Ran was no exception.
"A smile that captivates the city, another smile that captivates the nation," Xu Ran murmured, lost in Gu Yuena's beauty.
Qian Renxue, having become a Divine-being, also possessed such beauty, and Gu Yuena had achieved it now.
After the restoration of her "Cultivation Level," Gu Yuena had a unique charm that other women did not possess, making Xu Ran like her even more.
This might just be an ability unique to Gu Yuena, one that made people willing to indulge in that feeling, never wanting to awake.
"Is this the temperament of a God level strong?"
Zhu Zhuqing and the other women watched Gu Yuena, seeing her float like a fairy, and couldn't help but feel somewhat ashamed, while their desire to become gods intensified.
Before, she wasn't very interested in becoming a god.
After being with Xu Ran, her fixation on power faded.
But now, she envied not the strength of God level strong, but their temperament, appearance, and the body that remained eternally youthful.
Only by becoming a god could one be the same.
"This lass is laughing so heartily, could it be that she has told others about that matter to confront the Goddess of Kindness? Didn't I tell her to hold back and not to speak out yet? How awkward is that?" Xu Ran touched his nose and looked helplessly at the two beautiful figures in the sky.
He felt that after taking Gu Yuena and the Life Goddess, Goddess of Kindness, into his "Harem," they still wouldn't get along.
The feud between the goddess and Gu Yuena had a long history and wasn't something that could be resolved in a short while.
So as long as it wasn't too big of a problem, Xu Ran didn't want to interfere. Supporting one side would be seen as favoritism.
"However, Shan Liang is really in a bad spot now, she definitely can't out-argue Na'er."
Xu Ran looked at the Goddess of Kindness in her plain white dress, so graceful and tranquil, and couldn't help but mourn for her. If she wanted to learn knowledge, why didn't she just observe him and Xiaowu, Zhu Qing, at ordinary times?
Why provoke Gu Yuena.
The key issue was, having been caught by Gu Yuena, how could she gain anything good?
This move directly dug a grave for herself.
He could imagine that even if they resolved the dispute today, every time the Goddess of Kindness and Gu Yuena had a disagreement in the future, Gu Yuena would bring up this incident to mock her.
For the rest of her life, the Goddess of Kindness was completely in Gu Yuena's grip.
If the Goddess of Kindness had a different personality, it might be a different story. She placed great importance on her reputation; if this got out, she might destroy her own Divine Power and die to preserve her purity. This means she never wants the incident to leak, so she will surely be blackmailed by Gu Yuena for a lifetime because of it.
Of course, given Gu Yuena's personality, she would merely talk the talk and wouldn't really expose anything. Otherwise, if the Goddess of Kindness bluntly revealed where on her body she had a few moles, wouldn't that also be social suicide? But the Goddess of Kindness is inscrutable.
In matters like these, the dominant party can suppress the other. Clearly, Gu Yuena was the dominant one.
"Just don't let things escalate too much, that would be best. I hope Na'er keeps that in mind," Xu Ran muttered.
Proper manipulation could hasten the Goddess of Kindness's shift to their faction.
But moderation is key, for Xu Ran could be quite covetous of the Goddess of Kindness's charms.
If she were scared off, leaving behind a knot in her heart, that wouldn't be good.
…
"Gu Yuena, you—!"
The Goddess of Kindness's face changed dramatically. Frightened by Gu Yuena's threatening words, she trembled and lowered her head, completely at a loss for what to do.
If it had been just a fight, she might have felt better.
But when it came to handling this sort of thing... If this sort of thing was discovered, she would wish she could vanish from shame.
But now she couldn't leave; she had no choice but to stand her ground and negotiate with Gu Yuena. She was worried that Gu Yuena might really spread those things around. If so, perhaps others would only think Gu Yuena was slandering her, but she would live her whole life in constant unease.
"Am I wrong? If I exposed this matter, I'm afraid from then on many male gods in the Divine Realm would secretly come to you, hinting their intentions, wanting to develop a romance with you," said Gu Yuena with a giggle.
However, as she spoke, she cast a glance at Xu Ran below. If she really did that, Xu Ran would probably be heartbroken and extremely furious.
After all, Xu Ran indeed cherished the Goddess of Kindness very much!
When she first got the dirt on the Goddess of Kindness, she thought about using the opportunity to disrupt the relationship between the Goddess of Kindness and the Evil God, even possibly causing turmoil throughout the Divine Realm.
Maybe they wouldn't have to lift a finger, and the Divine Realm would just fall into disarray.
But Xu Ran adamantly disagreed, otherwise, she really wanted to trample the once exalted existence of the Divine King underfoot. Back when they had slain the Dragon God, subdued the Golden Dragon King, and left her grievously wounded, they were quite glorious!
Now that they finally caught her weak spot, how could she just let her go?
She was not some magnanimous good person; she was just a woman, a woman who believed in tit for tat.
"Gu Yuena, you are shameless, how can you say such a thing?"
The Goddess of Kindness trembled angrily, pointing a finger at Gu Yuena, tears forming in her eyes.
Just the thought of the scenario described by Gu Yuena made her blanch. if that scene truly came to pass, she would rather die...
She was a Divine King, always indifferent to fame and fortune, living in harmony with the world, and everyone respected her immensely. If she were slandered like that by Gu Yuena, even if those people wouldn't dare say anything openly, who knows what they would think behind her back!
In that case, she'd rather be dead.
"Shameless? Am I being shameless now?"
"You've been peeking at me too. Who is more shameless?"
Seeing the Goddess of Kindness in such a pitiful state, with tears like rain, Gu Yuena grew even angrier.
Cry, cry, cry, that's all you know. If you were really with Xu Ran, wouldn't that just break his heart? Such a woman is the best at fighting for affection. As long as you can cry, there's no need to compete; you'll have everything.
