Chapter 216: Thanos Dilemma

Thanos was originally patiently waiting for destiny's path to unfold.

But before that could happen, a single being with the power of a universe appeared on Earth. It's no wonder Thanos couldn't remain calm.

Thanos felt completely numb.

He couldn't understand how a human, someone he had never heard of before, had already reached the level of a universal entity by the time he discovered them. When he realized this, Thanos was filled with questions.

How could someone reach such heights in just a few years?

Thanos was aware of some extremely powerful races and civilizations, or the offspring of Celestial, whose starting point was very high. However, a human reaching the level of a universal entity was beyond comparison to those godly descendants.

Thanos had never heard of such a thing.

He thought the universe was playing a joke on him.

No matter what, Thanos couldn’t figure it out. Although Thanos wasn't one to obsess over problems, this issue was critical to his plans, so he had to get to the bottom of it.

Thanos was very clear that the future was murky, and Bi Xiao’s existence had already thoroughly impacted his plans for the future.

He had to solve this problem.

But a universal entity was not something Thanos could challenge. The difference in their power was astonishingly vast. When the gap in strength reaches a certain point, any conspiracy or trick is rendered useless.

When the Ancient One and Odin were still around, Thanos behaved himself. Now that someone even more terrifying had appeared, he had to be even more cautious.

In reality, even if Thanos gathered all the Infinity Stones and wore the Infinity Gauntlet, his power would still not be enough to easily erase such a being, as this level could completely resist the power of the stones.

However, Thanos had no idea what this person intended.

A universal entity typically wouldn’t concern itself with things like halving the population of the universe; they would simply ignore it, as it wouldn’t affect them. On the contrary, halving the population might even benefit them.

But Bi Xiao had reached this level as a human, so who knew what he was thinking?

Thanos didn’t want to risk his plan on such uncertainties.

With a flash of lightning, Pietro appeared in front of everyone: “Hey, guys, do you like my new home?"

Pietro was as excited as someone who had just moved into a new estate, his face full of pride and joy.

“Hey, buddy, I really like this place. Your new home is beautiful. Haha, don’t forget to prepare a room for us. I’ll definitely stay here for a hundred years.” Volstagg walked up to Pietro, patting the white-haired boy on the shoulder, speaking heartily.

“Well, you’d better ask me nicely. Haha.” Pietro was so pleased that he nearly burst with joy.

He also had a floating mountain island all to himself and loved his residence, though it was a bit lonely.

He thought about how he would amaze his future girlfriend with this place.

The more he thought about it, the happier he felt.

“I never imagined that the once-glorious paradise would become history so quickly,” Sif sighed, not just lamenting the rapid fall of Heaven but also the terrifying power of that person.

When she first met Bi Xiao, she was filled with respect but never imagined he would achieve such great feats.

Even in Asgard, such feats were rare.

“It should have been destroyed long ago. Those hypocrites, always pretending to be righteous while being utterly despicable and disgusting,” Volstagg snorted, recalling the past entanglements between Heaven and Asgard, which he remembered clearly.

Even though he wasn’t born at that time.

But Heaven had once betrayed Asgard, doing enough disgusting things to make all Asgardians detest and hate them.

More hypocritical, ruthless, and cunning than demons, yet masquerading as merciful, compassionate, kind, and righteous—just thinking about it made people nauseous.

Thor, Sif, and the others fully agreed.

“Hypocrisy is a mask. Wearing this mask can deceive some ignorant people, but when faced with truly powerful beings, all disguises and hypocrisy are as easily torn as masks,” Loki said, full of depth.

But Thor didn’t give his brother any face, patting Loki and loudly saying, “Loki, you’re the God Of Mischief, don’t act like those hypocrites.”

Loki was instantly flustered by his unscrupulous brother’s words.
