Chapter 134: Xi Wei: I Choose To Ask The Audience (1/2)

“By the way, Aslan…” Xi Wei raised the skull on his two tiny tentacles and asked curiously. “Didn’t you mention that members of the Invisible Pantheon always had each other’s backs? I think now’s the time!”

He then held the skull in front of himself with the attitude of ‘I-have-no-idea-what’s-happening-but-I’ll-just-put-this-comment-here’. “Come, help me financially if you can or with divine power if you’re poor.”

“…”

The Great Lion looked upon Xi Wei with great disdain. “Have you no shame as a god?”

He then realized that saying that had no effect on Xi Wei even as he quietly watched the ball of light continue flickering.

The ball really had no shame…

“Are you not contributing your power, lion? Could it be that you’re afraid of the Ocean God and afraid to help me?”

Xi Wei complained unhappily, whipping the skull with his tentacles.

“Me, the great God of Justice, afraid of that mad hag?! Yeah, right.” Aslan said arrogantly with a seemingly unconfident tone.

But perhaps believing that he wasn’t being convincing either, he quickly added, “She didn’t come personally and only assigned the Three Trials for you this time, but if bystanders like us get involved she might really come and have a word with you.”

After that, the Great Lion even made a gesture of crushing an egg (or any spherical objects) at Xi Wei, hinting that he would have been a dead ball…

And Xi Wei thought that it was true as well.

At the moment, Ocean God had no intention to directly descend upon his divine kingdom and merely dumped so-called Trials at him made it clear that she only wanted to test him. With that being the case, their relationship would not sour for the time being before the Trial had an outcome.

On the other hand, should Xi Wei really drag others into it and cheekily cheat right before the Ocean God’s face, from what he knew of her track record she might really leave her dispute with the Earthweaver for the time being, and run here to slap Xi Wei to death…

Nonetheless, just as Xi Wei was quietly mumbling about ‘what is this suffering’, the Great Lion suddenly spoke enigmatically.

“Although we can’t aid you directly, indirect help is possible.”

“Indirect help? How?” Xi Wei asked in return, bemused. “Helping my believers with resources? Forgive my frankness, but they don’t lack anything.”
