Chapter 969 - A Major Change (1/2)

Just as the Nephilim King Augustus cried out, everyone was shocked.

The person who had appeared next to Otis was none other than Ulysses' eldest daughter, Sharaz. However, the young lady did not seem the slightest bit interested in Otis. Instead, she walked over to Jiang Fei.

”The old man, Divine Light God, attempted to molest me. I had beat him up…” Sharaz complained to Jiang Fei with a tone that sounded like she was begging for his attention.

Before Jiang Fei could even react, Otis' jaw nearly dropped to the ground. He was very confused by what he just witnessed. Everyone present had only just found out about the planned marriage between the Divine Light God and Ulysses' daughter. Meanwhile, Jiang Fei had already made the Divine Light God's fiancée cheat on him. It was too much to take in.

Right then, Otis felt tremendous respect for his brother-in-law.

”Hehehe…” Jiang Fei was unsure of how to react apart from laughing awkwardly. He finally understood why the Divine Light God had not shown up today. The Divine Light God was probably tending to his wounds at home.

”Ehh… Sharaz, what's going on here?” Ulysses was equally confused.

”Father! I have beaten Thor up for being an imbecile! This is the man I want to marry!” Sharaz pointed at Jiang Fei as she told her father the truth.

”Ahh?” Ulysses was stunned for a moment. However, he quickly recollected himself. Ulysses then turned around to face Moon God Diana with an apologetic expression. ”Uhm, I am really sorry. It appears that my daughter has changed her fiance. I am now on the Nephilim race's side. I'm truly sorry. You should probably surrender. I don't like bullying women…”

”How could you do this?!” Diana was going insane. Although she had always known that the Demon race lacked integrity, she was still surprised by how quickly they had turned on her.

It was true that the Demon race lacked integrity. However, Ulysses had other reasons for his sudden betrayal. Firstly, Sharaz was his favorite daughter. After all, Sharaz was able to reach the Celestial rank, which was a rare occurrence in the Demon race. Besides, the Demon race's members were mostly unintelligent beings. Most of Ulysses' children were not even able to reach the Overlord rank, let alone light the Godly Flame. Therefore, Sharaz was very precious to Ulysses.

On top of that, the Demon race had formed an alliance with the Celestial race through an arranged marriage so that they would not be stuck in the neutral state. In the war between Light and Dark Factions, all races had to pick a side. Since the Divine Light God had reached out to the Demon race, Ulysses played along by suggesting the arranged marriage.

Now that Sharaz had chosen her fiance from the Nephilim race, Ulysses actually did not mind. After all, forming an alliance with the Nephilim race to fight against the Celestial race was not any different from forming an alliance with the Celestial race to fight against the Nephilim race. He would not get into an argument with his daughter over such trivial matters.

Thirdly, Ulysses had also considered the situation on the battlefield. Although he was an Intermediate Celestial, he would still have to pay a huge price if he wanted to defeat three or even four Lower Celestials. In comparison, defeating Moon God in a group of five was a much easier feat.

Due to such considerations, Ulysses ultimately decided to abandon his alliance with the Celestial race.
