Against the Gods

from a humble background, he is now the most prominent individual in the entire God Realm, the ‘child of the heavens’ from the prediction of the Heavenly Mystery Realm, and there is even that so-called True God prophecy.
The Dragon Monarch wishes to recognize him as his adopted son, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor wants to receive him as a direct disciple, and the Brahma Heaven God Emperor is so impatient to marry Qianye Ying’er to him… And here you are reacting so strongly against me deciding to marry Caizhi to him?”

The complexion of the Star God Emperor slightly changed, before he quickly concealed it, “The future of this Yun Che boy is definitely limitless, and it would naturally be a good matter if he stays in the Star God Realm but Caizhi is still far too young to discuss her marriage.
Also, it hasn’t been long since she inherited the Heavenly Wolf’s divine power, and it has yet to fuse with her completely.
How could we distract her for such a matter!?”

“Besides, as Caizhi is a Star God now and also the daughter of this king, such a great event in her life would be a grand event for the whole Eastern Divine Region as well.
Thus, we need to be as cautious as possible.
Yun Che might be extraordinarily talented, but we know nothing about his background or character… How can we make such a decision so carelessly!?”

The look in the Heavenly Origin Star God’s eyes faintly changed… Someone of such status as the Star God Emperor would obviously be a person of few words.
Him speaking so many words one after another to explain himself was no different from exposing some “flaws” in his claims.

Jasmine was not the least bit moved by his words.
Her gaze was like a cold knife as she said in a low and unhurried voice, “Old villain, I’ve already made the decision.
You can’t interfere in this matter even if you were to mention a million reasons in objection! I’ll betroth Caizhi to Yun Che in front of the memorial tablets of mother and maternal aunt.
You don’t need to tell the world about it, and there’s no need for a grand ceremony and feast, either.
Furthermore, I don’t need your approval or for you to show up on the occasion, because you do not deserve to do so! I’m already doing you a gargantuan favor by specially telling you about it beforehand!”

“You…” The Star God Emperor’s hair stood on end instantly as he flew into a rage, but his arm was suddenly grabbed by a hand at once.
The Heavenly Origin Star God walked forward as he lightly chuckled, “This matter was brought up too suddenly, so my king couldn’t help but become agitated.
However, carefully thinking upon the decision of Your Highness, it would indeed be quite nice for such a thing to happen.
Yun Che has experienced the nine stages of lightning tribulation, which has never happened since time immemorial.
Even the Brahma Monarch Goddess, who is unrivalled among the women of the Eastern Divine Region, no matter whether it is looks, cultivation, or standing, could only vainly wish to marry Yun Che.
If Her Highness Caizhi could become marriage partners with Yun Che, it would be a good thing for our Star God Realm.”

The Star God Emperor moved his brows very conspicuously, as he gave the Heavenly Origin Star God a glance.
Still, he didn’t utter another word.

“It’s just that considering how even the Brahma Monarch Goddess was rejected by Yun Che, the biggest hindrance in Your Highness carrying out this matter successfully is perhaps not my king, but Yun Che himself.”

“Hmph, you fellows don’t need to worry about it then!” Jasmine coldly replied.
“Yun Che has already agreed to it!”

“…?” The Heavenly Origin Star God revealed astonishment on his face.

“Yun Che’s main weapon is a heavy sword, and the “Heavenly Wolf Hell God’s Tome’ is obviously the strongest art of heavy sword.
I told him that Caizhi can impart him the ‘Heavenly Wolf Hell God’s Tome’ if he marries her as his wife.
There was no reason for him to refuse!”

The expression of the Star God Emperor changed again, and he let out a low roar, “Heavenly Wolf Hell God’s Tome is a part of the Heavenly Wolf God Arts.
How could it be taught to outsiders? This is simply…”

“The third condition for me to cooperate with the ‘ceremony’, is that you keep your mouth eternally shut in regards to this matter!” The look in Jasmine’s eyes grew even colder.
“Old villain, it’d be best for you to get this through your head that the initiative in the ‘ceremony’ lays in my hand, not yours! If you go back on your word, I have countless ways to turn your wild ambition to nothingness for eternity!”

Not waiting for the Star God Emperor to say anything in reply, Jasmine’s silhouette flickered and a cold wind blew past as she disappeared before the two.

The entrance of the Star God Palace remained tightly shut all this time, barring the entry of others… Even if it was the Star God Emperor himself.

“Preposterous!” The face of the Star God Emperor twitched as his whole body trembled.
In this world, it was only Jasmine who could make him so furious but he still could not do anything in return to vent his anger.

“Xing Ling, withdraw from here.
Do not leak even a single word of the conversation you heard just now,” the Heavenly Origin Star God said.

Xing Ling didn’t utter a sound, as he left far, far away.

“Sigh,” Heavenly Origin Star God Tumi let out a light sigh.
“My king, you lost your temper.”

“Why did you not let this king stop the marriage from happening? You clearly know that Caizhi…” The Star God Emperor stopped midway through his words, as his chest moved up and down heavily.

“The time for the ‘ceremony’ is close, and we have already waited for this day for a very, very long time,” the Heavenly Origin Star God said in a slow voice.
“This ‘ceremony’ not only concerns my king, but also the future of the Star God Realm.
We can’t have anything happening that’s out of our calculation.”

“Now there is less than a year left before the day of the ‘ceremony’, and everything has been prepared to carry it out successfully.
Everyone in the God Realm knows that the Brahma Heaven God Emperor wants to marry the Goddess to Yun Che, so you opposing her so intensely on deciding to betroth Her Highness Caizhi to Yun Che would very likely cause Her Highness Jasmine to be suspicious.
If she were to become aware that the ‘core’ of the ‘ceremony’ is Her Highness Caizhi due to it, everything will be for naught.”

“…” The Star God Emperor stayed silent.

“Before the successful execution of the ‘ceremony’, that concerns my king as well as the future of the Star God Realm, we have to make all kinds of concessions if required.
We absolutely can’t do anything that could give rise to unexpected elements.”

The chest of the Star God Emperor moved up and down over ten times before he finally calmed down.
He slightly closed his eyes, and said in a low voice, “You are right.
Compared to the importance of the ‘ceremony’, everything else is trivial!”

Tumi nodded his head, “There is one more thing.
Heavenly Poison Star God’s divine power has returned to the original position now.
It is time to begin looking for the next compatible person.”

“Let’s talk about this matter after the ceremony.”

The Star God Emperor turned around to leave.
He actually no longer insisted on taking Yun Che away with him and directly left.

The Heavenly Origin Star God raised his head.
Looking at the starlight drifting in the sky, a divine glow strong enough to pierce through the vicissitudes of life flickered in his aged eyes, “The time is near, and should the ceremony succeed, my king shall descend upon the world like a god; unsurpassed and invincible.
The Star God Realm would also become the star that brightens the world, looking down on all the worlds that exist under the heavens.”

“That day will arrive eventually…”
