Chapter 799
Since the Heavenly Realm was born countless eons ago, the number of deities who have ever existed within it has become exceedingly large.
Among these deities, there have also been some extraordinary geniuses.
For example, the human goddess Elen became a Sacred Domain in just a hundred years on the Continent of Gods.
That was incredibly terrifying.
But Elen's luck was poor; she had no master to guide her and ascended to godhood too quickly.
If Elen had been luckier and encountered a master, had she chosen to accumulate further before becoming a god at Second Rank or even Third or Fourth Rank of the Sacred Domain, given her talent, she likely would have broken through to the Third Tier within a thousand years.
This is what is called a "genius" among deities.
But if the Lord of Flame is not an ancient deity but a new god, then the Lord of Flame's growth rate… might be astonishing beyond measure.
It's not just one or two times faster than Elen's.
It's N times faster.
N is at least a two-digit number!
Such a "genius" has never appeared in the Heavenly Realm before!
Many deities must slowly accumulate divine power, comprehend the laws, study advanced divine power, and obtain the resources needed for a divine body… and so on, ascending step by step.
After becoming a god, following a steady, methodical path is the best strategy.
But if the Lord of Flame is a new god, then the Lord of Flame has shattered the entire Heavenly Realm's record!
Even the offspring of a Supreme Deity would not grow at such speed.
If a Supreme Deity even has offspring.
"Mevise, I think the same—Lord God must have powerful enemies…"
Vevila voiced her speculation.
Mevise already had her own guess; in Vevila's view, whether she spoke or not, Mevise had already figured it out.
Moreover, Vevila knew Mevise well enough to know Mevise would never reveal it.
Besides, regarding some of Lin Yan's core secrets, Vevila had not told Mevise at all.
Thus, these two goddesses sat together in Vevila's divine realm, conjuring wild theories.
One could not help but admire how powerful their imaginations truly were.
When two goddesses conjured theories together, their speculations became far more detailed than when Vevila did it alone, and their ideas grew increasingly absurd.
"I think the Lord of Flame might be a powerful ancient deity."
Mevise speculated thus.
"Hmm, possible…"
The two goddesses huddled together, speculating for several full hours.
Finally, Mevise remembered something and couldn't help asking: "Vevila, between you and the Lord of Flame… are you…?"
She couldn't finish the rest of the sentence.
But the implication was already crystal clear.
She wanted to ask whether Vevila and the Lord of Flame had become lovers.
It was perfectly normal for her to think so.
After all, Lin Yan had stayed in Vevila's divine realm for months on end.
Among the elf goddesses, Vevila was the first to allow a male deity into her divine realm.
Not to mention letting him stay so long.
Elf goddesses are just like elves.
Very few elves are willing to fall in love with humans.
Of course, nothing is absolute—on such a vast Continent of Gods, there might be some, but their number would be extremely small.
At least, among the elf tribes of the Sacred Flame Forest and Loki Forest, no such elf existed.
Human hearts change easily.
But whether as elves themselves or as goddesses in the Heavenly Realm, elves always hold fast to their original hearts, never swelling with arrogance like some human deities do once they grow strong.
According to Mevise's knowledge, none of the elf goddesses living in the Elf Divine Realm have ever felt affection for a human deity.
For her, love is not a necessity.
Unless she truly meets the one.
Elves never lose their reason to love.
Now, Vevila is the first.
Thus, the Elf Divine Realm has recently been anything but calm.
Many elf goddesses who know each other have been discussing this matter.
But since Vevila did so willingly and the Lord of Flame has left a decent impression on these elf goddesses, they merely discuss—no one speaks ill.
Moreover, what they discuss more often is the recent war.
Among the elf goddesses, many speculations have arisen about the Lord of Flame's origins.
Hearing Mevise's words, Vevila blushed.
"Mevise, I… I do indeed like Lord God, but we haven't reached that level yet."
Vevila said.
She had just admitted to Mevise, face to face, that she liked Lin Yan.
It was like a secret between close friends.
Mevise smiled: "Vevila, I can tell you like the Lord of Flame. Though powerful, he's willing to spend time helping you strengthen your power—this shows he values you greatly. His sacrifices must have been considerable, right?"
Vevila nodded and said: "Yes!"
In Vivera's eyes, Lin Yan had paid a considerable price to help her level up.
This also caused Vivera's heart to become completely bound to Lin Yan, unwaveringly!
"The Flame Lord surely likes you too, Vivera—keep going!"
Mavis encouraged her.
Vivera thought for a moment and felt the timing was right, then extended the invitation:
"Mavis, if I invite you to join the Divine Lord's divine system, would you be willing?"
Upon hearing Vivera's words, Mavis's face once again showed surprise.
"Vivera, are you inviting me to join the Flame Lord's divine system?"
Mavis asked in astonishment.
Vivera nodded and said, "But Mavis, I don't yet know if the Divine Lord will agree. If you're willing, I'll ask him. If he agrees, we'll both be in the same divine system. If he refuses, we'll still be good friends."
She did not deceive Mavis.
Vivera added, "Also, Mavis, you know the Divine Lord has powerful enemies. If we join his divine system, we may no longer enjoy the peace we have now—his enemies might come for him, and then we'll need to fight alongside him. His enemies become our enemies. Mavis, are you prepared?"
Mavis's expression grew strange.
She seemed to want to hold back, but in the end, Mavis could not contain herself.
She said, "Vivera, I'm willing to join the Flame Lord's divine system. Please tell the Flame Lord for me."
Huh!
Vivera hadn't expected Mavis to agree so easily.
She turned around and saw a hint of quiet anticipation on Mavis's face.
At that moment, Vivera thought of something else.
Why had Mavis come to visit her out of the blue?
And Mavis knew the Flame Lord was in Vivera's divine realm, yet she still came.
If Vivera knew Mavis's divine realm had a male god, she certainly wouldn't have gone over to be a third wheel.
Hmm, of course this assumption was invalid—no male god had ever set foot in Mavis's divine realm!
But Mavis had still come.
And when Mavis met the Flame Lord, she seemed… especially delighted!
"Could it be she came just to see my Lord?"
Vivera couldn't help thinking.
As a goddess, Vivera's intuition in certain matters was quite sharp.
So within moments, Vivera sensed a hint of rivalry from Mavis!
