"Oh, the best..." The Goddess of Darkness smiled sinisterly.

"I've felt the aura of several bosses behind them, they are vile creatures, I am a saint compared to them," she said.

"We all know that..." Eternal Rose remained relaxed.

The Goddess of Darkness was unable to say anything else.

On the other hand, Yan Zhaoge looked at the Three-Eyed man.

Flames seemed to radiate from his eyes as he stared at him.

The latter showed a faint smile.

When he blinked his eyes, the eye on his forehead suddenly closed.

"We failed and lost... However, it is only a matter of time before His Excellency comes, none of you can survive," he said.

His words made Yan Zhaoge and the others knit their brows together.

"Okay, we're going back," said the man again.

He and the others including the Eternal Rose started to turn and stride in various directions, seeming to be returning to their respective places.

It was ridiculous considering their actions, but the thing was they had power.

With how vile they were, they would most likely commit a massacre if they continued to be attacked.

In the end, there is no such thing as a world government in this Divine World.

One can commit an unforgivable crime.

As long as their strength was at the peak, they could still roam around as if they were good citizens.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe we need to discuss, let's go to the Dawn Continent," the Eternal Statue Ancestor said.

The others nodded.

At this moment, the Golden Lion King returned to his human form.

He was a handsome middle-aged man with a face full of wounds. Just like his lion form, he also has a golden beard.

The Phoenix Queen, on the other hand, only shrunk her body, she remained in her Phoenix form.

The number of Phoenixes was very few and they were very proud.

To them, their Phoenix figure was the best, so they almost never changed into human form.

The Phoenix Queen had never even done so in her entire life.

Her pride reached the point where sometimes she wouldn't talk to other people.

Soon they arrived at the Divine City.

A large building was prepared for them.

They gathered in a magnificent hall where there was a round table in the center.

Shu! Shu! Shu!

One by one, they sat down on the chairs behind the table.

When everyone was seated, everyone's gazes immediately fell on Qin Yuan. Obviously they thought he was the cause of all this.

"Ehmmm!" Qin Yuan cleared his throat.

Before he spoke, Yan Zhaoge spoke first. "What Brother Qin did save us all from bigger trouble. This will happen sooner or later."

No one refuted his words except for the Eternal Light Ancestor. He said, "hmph, he should have done it more thoroughly, this thing could have been stopped if the Seven-Path was caught!"

"You'd better shut up, old man! That man will still succeed even if we all cooperate," Qin Yuan replied, looking at him with cold eyes.

The old man scowled.

But he didn't speak anymore because the Elf Queen opened her mouth.

"Now what we need to discuss is a plan for the future, stop blaming each other!"

She looked around and continued, "What do you guys think?"

"I think we'll be safe as long as the portal continues like that. Only weak people should be able to pass." The one who answered was not Qin Yuan, but the Goddess of Darkness.

"Could you tell me first what happened inside that portal? My Heavenly Eyes can't penetrate it." The Golden Lion King said.

The Elf Queen then explained everything.

"I see..." The lion nodded.

"Basically, if they want to repair the portal, they can only send weak people. --- We can do the same to stop them," he said.

"We can indeed be considered safe," the Elf Queen continued. "But the enemy is an unfathomable existence, I'm sure they have another way or two. Maybe they just need some time."

"The basic solution to all problems is strength," Qin Yuan replied, making all gazes fall on him again.

He shrugged, not saying more.

Yan Zhaoge laughed softly and said, "Indeed, no matter what existence they are, as long as we are stronger, we will be fine. We will only suffer if we remain weak."

That's not something that can be disputed.

But the problem is, how to become stronger.

"Easier said than done," said the Eternal Light Ancestor.

"It's only for you because you can't get stronger anymore," Qin Yuan replied.

"You..." The old man glared in displeasure.

But he also couldn't argue because Qin Yuan's current change was simply too astonishing.

"I agree with Eternal Star, the solution is only to become stronger," Primordial Azure Dragon said.

"But we also need to create some kind of organization to regulate this. At least we need to reward the people who fight in the portal later," he added.

The others nodded.

His words ended the discussion.

Throughout the discussion, the World Pillar Emperor, the Grim Reaper, and the Eternal Statue Ancestor didn't say anything, they acted as if they were just observers.

It was the same for the Phoenix Queen.

The factor she didn't speak was clear enough. She was indeed very quiet and there were enough people speaking in this discussion that what she wanted to say might not differ much from the others.

She was also the first to leave, flying straight through the hall's window.

...

Meanwhile, in the Ice Palace.

Among the many halls, there is a hall full of flowers.

This hall even had a small sun that served to illuminate the flowers. So, even if they are in the coldest place, they can continue to live.

Among the flowers, there was a rose placed in the corner.

Swish!

Suddenly the rose emitted a red light.

The light then condensed before turning into a woman's spiritual body.

Phew!

The woman sighed.

Looking around, she said, "My Queen, are you here?"

...
