After Wang Yi left, Ye Yunxiao said, “Go to the temple and pass this letter to God. I’ll be there soon.”
Upon saying that, Ye Yunxiao rushed to Han Yun’s side. Weirdly enough, as soon as he reached Han Yun’s side, she woke up all of a sudden. The intense battle that had occurred earlier had not woken her up.
Han Yun slowly opened her eyes. “Ye Yunxiao, did you save me again?”
Wei Huo was speechless.
I saved you!
Ye Yunxiao said, “What matters is that you’re alright!”
Wei Huo thought to himself, Hey, this guy is changing the topic!
Forget it.
Wei Huo shook his head and prepared to head to the shrine with the letter.
After all, they are Gods, and I am human. They are NPCs, and I am a player. Why should I stoop to their level? As long as the time halt ends and humans return, I will…
Wei Huo felt weird again. He had a bad feeling about this, as if…
It felt as if he had gone to school alone on the first day and walked on his way there. Everything around him seemed to have left him. Then, a weird feeling emerged in his heart, like a premonition or some kind of emotion.
With each step he took, he felt that the road beneath his feet became narrower. The pedestrians around him walked further away until everyone was gone. The road under his feet was only as wide as his shoulders. He was the only one left in the whole world, and there was only the road ahead and the road behind him. Everything on either side of him was merely moving background. He had only three options: advance, retreat, or stay where he was.
Everything would return to normal when he walked through the school gate.
Then, Wei Huo would laugh at himself. I was just afraid of school.
Really? Wei Huo asked himself. The road under his feet suddenly became narrower, and everything around him disappeared. The two lovey-dovey guys who were still sleeping were gone.
Wei Huo arrived at the market. The old man who was buying vegetables, the peddler who was collecting second-hand cards, the haggling auntie, and everything else seemed to have a boundary. He was inside and outside the boundary line.
The situation only improved after Wei Huo entered the temple.
He checked his Health and found a new attribute on the menu: Loneliness (Serious)
Wei Huo laughed. He had not felt lonely in hundreds of years, yet he felt lonely now?
He had to study electromagnetic science as soon as possible and solve two physics problems to console himself.
Wei Huo entered the temple. The temple was located in the center of the Divine Realm. It was in another space and could only be entered through portals. It was also heavily guarded, and every guard was an extremely powerful being.
The guards did not stop Wei Huo, as he had a quest. That was why he had entered the temple. At that moment, three Gods were standing in the temple. One was the Heavenly Wood God, while the other two were the Family Head of the Chen Family and the General who led all the Divine Realm’s guards.
Wei Huo arrived at the palace and realized that the Heavenly Wood God was discussing something with the other two.
The General said, “The number of Divine Beasts exterminated outside the Divine Realm has increased recently.”
The Heavenly Wood God asked, “Why is there such an unusual phenomenon?”
The head of the Chen Family said, “Han Lu once mentioned to me that God seemed to have gone to the Void Realm of his own accord.”
The Heavenly Wood God thought about it and said, “I have to leave the Divine Realm and head to the Void Realm. We have to investigate this matter thoroughly.”
The General nodded. “I’ll be relieved if the Heavenly Wood God goes out personally. More and more Divine Beasts keep appearing, and they are getting stronger. Epic-ranked Divine Beasts have begun appearing as well.”
