Chapter 830: Take the Road of Others

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

From afar, the single-celled God, no, the future origin of life, was looking down smugly at those suffering helplessly beyond the gate of the Azure Mountain.

They paced back and forth, some were on their knees begging, and praying to the gods, yet all their efforts appeared to be in vain.

Because the one who brought them disaster, was God.

Whilst the world’s Heavenly Axiom who could impose sanctions, had their hands tied up in other matters.

If they wanted to get God’s mercy and forgiveness, they had to offer sacrifices.

However, the required sacrifice was something they would never be able to offer.

So they could only writhe in helpless agony and desperation.

Back then, when he was formerly known as the “God of Plagues”, when he was living among the other gods, his greatest pleasure had been to watch how the mortals suffered helplessly in despair over the blight he spread, yet powerless to do anything.

Such was he, a god of evil, who enjoyed deriving the utmost pleasure from the suffering of others.

A benign god, on the other hand, would derive joy from the happiness of others.

The life of Gods was awfully long, but as long they did not pose any threats to the Saints, they would be safe from any major peril.

Nevertheless, under the calculations of the Saints, life was dull, boring and unchanging.

Thus, deriving joy from mortals became one of the best ways for them to pass the time.

Because of the presence of the Saints, once one had ascended to God and received the perks, everything would gradually settle down; there was little point in training any harder, in fact, doing so might even draw in unwanted liabilities.

As the Saints did not wish to see gods with high ambitions, those Gods, too, one by one fell. Contrarily, Gods who enjoyed merry-making and were not keen on making progress would get to live longer, until the time set by the Saint comes that is.

In the end, the Moon Goddess still held some sympathy for those who were in agony and despair, especially those of the same sex.

This was precisely why the God of Plagues had purposely avoided females when he cast the spell, he did not wish to inadvertently cause harm to his potential ally.

This was the wit of a God, any detail, regardless of how little, would be carefully tended to; unless of course, he did not want to care, or those whose who had been blinded by fate or the Saints.

She spoke detachedly, “The moment is about right now, there is no one on Earth who can resist this blight, we can announce the oracle.”

“May these mortals understand God’s Celestial Aura.” The black figure nodded.

…

By the gates of Azure Mountain.

Qi Hui looked helplessly at everything around her, Vigilante A came and left, this was understandable as not only did he not have any relations with her to speak of, but there was even enmity between them.

Now that he was reminded by the Hundred Herbs Geezer, he, of course, had to stay away from this whirlpool of a mess.

At this moment, a cloud of white fog appeared.

Amid the fog, appeared a white figure whose face could not be seen clearly.

“You have violated the majesty of the Gods, only by offering your lands, may you appease the wrath of the Gods.”

After finishing their words, the figure disappeared.

“Detestable, a bunch of foreign Gods, coming to our Azure Mountain and acting wildly?” A short-tempered female apprentice cursed out loud.

Moments after she had finished speaking, however, she suddenly fell to the ground, unmoving, her symptoms were exactly the same as the other Apprentice-Brothers lying in bed!

Everyone looked at each other in consternation, realizing the extent of the methods of the Gods!

Gu Buwei frowned, he had understood the objective of these gods.

If even the most powerful Azure Mountain is to bow, then all those foreign gods will truly be able to establish themselves on Earth.

The ordinary folk, and common Cultivators, then, would no longer have the mind or thought to resist.

The oracle would, therefore, gain power and prestige.

The Hundred Herb Geezer had said earlier that one of the targets of the blight included Vigilante A.

He agreed with him, because Viligante A was a variable that could not be controlled by the Celestial Aura.

So long as such a person existed, mortals and Cultivators alike would never truly submit to the authority of the foreign gods.

Hence, they would definitely try to strike at him using every chance and opportunity they had.

The opportunity they had this time, they intended to kill three birds with one arrow.

Forcing the Azure Mountain to surrender, threatening the mortals, and also to eradicate any long-existing threats.

Except, they were still fearful of the might of Vigilante A; they could not confront him directly, so they had to resort to other evasive, indirect means of attack.

Even though they were infected by the blight, they could not pin the blame directly on the God of Plagues, as Vigilante A was not directly targeted by the blight.

That said, there was one thing they ultimately miscalculated, that was, Vigilante A, was a busybody.

Who immediately turned to the Mistress and said, “Mistress, the only thing we can do now is to seal off the mountain gates, use precious medicinal pills to sustain the lives of Apprentice-Brothers, Master, and Uncle-Master, as we wait for Grandmaster to come out.”

“What should we do about this oracle then?” Qi Hui mumbled, still puzzled.

“If the foreign Gods want their oracle to be recognized by us, there’s still another barrier they must go through first.” Gu Buwei stated calmly.

Qi Hui looked pensive for a moment before she nodded and directed the remaining disciples to transport their people back.

Going back and forth, it would seem like it was all for naught.

However, she knew in her heart, that it was not.

Previously, it was them against the Gods, but now, it was that person who would once again have to confront the Gods.

Because he, too, was subjected to the calculative schemes of the Gods.

With that person’s temper, even if one did not plot against him, he was already going to get involved as long as they did bad things; much less to say now, that they were actually trying to plot against him, then their actions were inadvertently the same as courting death.

…

In the System Space.

After calming down Qi Yan, Fang Ning returned to the System Cyber Cafe.

“Nope, we have to give this God of Plagues a severe lesson to let him know that, even a God, in this world and universe, cannot break the bottom line, and Gods who do evil are not permitted to exist!”

The other party had already crossed him twice now, it was obvious that the guy was the type of God who found pleasure in stirring things up and causing chaos.

Such gods were not uncommon in mythology.

They brought upon disasters and plagues to harm mortals, so as to make the mortals would offer tributes; Gods who derived pleasure from mortals’ misery, there were countless of such evil gods.

“But he’s just an avatar, even if I attacked him I wouldn’t gain any experience points, how do you want to approach this?” Sir System said, somewhat helplessly.

“Humph, wasn’t he trying to reach illumination in this world? The all-purpose bacteria, I already know the foundation of his path to illumination. Today, we’re going to let these Gods understand, now that they’ve offended the resident head honcho, they can kiss their plans of reaching illumination goodbye!” Fang Ning stated coldly.

“Gasp…” Sir System exclaimed, “Mr. Multi-Millionaire Host, you had such resolve and capabilities? All this time, I couldn’t tell. I’m impressed, at the very least, this is something I would never be able to do.”

“Hoho,” Fang Ning listened, secretly very pleased, “This is the difference between a wise man and a fool, you only know how to farm, but I know how, exactly, should one do, in order to get revenge against someone.”

“Then what do you suggest we do?”

“It’s very simple. Have you heard of a saying? Take the road of others, so they have no other way to go.”

“Ugh, I got it, Mr. Rich Boss is very wise indeed…” Sir System said sincerely.

“As for the specifics, we should go consult the Bodhisattva and the River God, to understand what the path of ascension to godhood was like for them. Also, don’t you have 13 threads? Get one of them for my precious game book. You remember how I said I was going to work on the Soul Array Computer before, once I succeed, I’ll be able to use this trump card to deduce the path of the God of Plagues.” Fang Ning said calculatedly.

“Sure enough, the most vicious heart belongs to the Host. If this happens then, it’ll make him suffer more than just killing his main body; he won’t even be a God anymore, but just a slightly above-average Cultivator.” Sir System said seriously.

“I can’t believe you’re trying to insult me, I just understand the truth, these ways of destruction should never find their way into the hands of the wicked, it should always be within our control. Because you are the Hero System, you’re not capable of evil. To anyone else, however, they could change their minds at any time; after all, the human heart is most prone to change.” Fang Ning said forbearingly.

“I like this idea of yours, this way, those bad guys will never get their day, they’ll all be under my mercy!” Sir System exclaimed excitedly.
