Chapter 158: Gada, Who Suffered a Heavy Blow

Hearing Su Nian's words, Gada was stunned for a moment.

Her emerald eyes gazed at Su Nian with an expression of keen interest, and after a moment of silence, she revealed a smile and said.

"How did you see through it?"

"I think my performance was quite good, and you shouldn't have met the person I was playing, right?"

"Even though I am your observer, just like her."

The Third Progenitor Gada directly expressed her curiosity about how Su Nian had seen through her; although she hadn't investigated, she felt her performance had been quite seamless.

"Hmm... how should I put it?"

Su Nian pinched his chin, organized his thoughts slightly, and said slowly.

"In fact, the real Ji Dong Xue Cai should still be on the plane right now; the Lion King Organization sent me Ji Dong Xue Cai's flight information not long ago."

"No, you know that's not the discovery I'm talking about, but rather when you discovered me."

The interest in the depths of Gada's eyes grew a fraction more; she had always been indifferent to such trivial matters, or rather, this was a loophole she had intentionally left in the little game between herself and Su Nian.

But what she was truly curious about was exactly when Su Nian had discovered that Ji Dong Xue Cai had been replaced by her.

She didn't believe for a second that Su Nian was bored enough to come here specifically for a seafood feast; in this kind of weather and temperature, no normal person would think of going out, right?

He had even chosen a location near the airport, a place she could see the moment she stepped out of the terminal.

"Probably when you just got off the plane?"

Su Nian didn't hide anything; after all, there was no need to hide it, and a mere Third Progenitor wasn't worth him using lies to cover up.

"At that time, I was calculating the coordinates of a dessert shop, and I happened to see you while I was at it."

Su Nian still wore a gentle smile on his face, while simultaneously wiping the mouth of Agulora, who was gnawing on a crab leg.

Except for when the Third Progenitor Gada had just returned to her original form, he hadn't looked at Gada again.

It was as if that joke about offering himself to her just now hadn't been made by him at all.

"Hahahaha!! That is truly interesting!"

Gada clapped her hands and laughed out loud; that overly unrestrained posture was completely at odds with her current petite appearance.

"As expected, snatching this opportunity from those two guys to come find you was definitely the right choice."

"Hmm, it's been such a long time since I've been this happy. When was the last time I felt such interest? Was it hundreds of years ago? Or decades ago?"

After laughing wantonly for a while, Gada put away the smile on her face, making her demeanor closer to the word "Huang Nu."

Yet her aggressive gaze, and the look in her eyes that almost blatantly said "I am interested in you," had never diminished.

"So, where exactly did you, this Fourth Progenitor, come from? The Flame Light Banquet has been held so many times, yet we have never seen a Fourth Progenitor like you."

"And we haven't found a single trace of your past existence in this world."

"Could it be that you came from beyond the heavens?"

The Third Progenitor Gada couldn't help but lean forward; her emerald eyes revealed curiosity, and her cherry lips were very close to Su Nian's cheek.

The faint yet wild fragrance emanating from her body rushed into Su Nian's nasal cavity.

"You can be even bolder; I didn't just come from beyond the heavens."

Su Nian gently pushed Gada's face away, although he did like beautiful girls, and he liked getting close to beautiful girls and deepening their relationship and such.

It would be even better if he could get hands-on.

But Gada's aggressiveness was too strong, to the point that it gave Su Nian the feeling that he was the prey.

Just like Nyarlathotep, Gada's feelings toward him weren't affection, but rather the excitement of seeing something interesting.

Like a huntress who had found her prey; that was not what Su Nian liked.

He liked the feeling of flirting, not being hunted as prey.

"Hmm? Bolder?"

Gada became even more curious about Su Nian's background, but she didn't dare to guess the idea of being "bolder," because if she continued to guess...

She was afraid she really wouldn't be able to help herself.

After all, the grand stage of "beyond the heavens" alone had already made her unable to restrain herself; the moment she thought of an even larger, more external world, she couldn't imagine to what extent she would lose control.

But having been bored for thousands of years, she still couldn't control herself and asked excitedly.

"It couldn't be that you come from another universe, could it?"

"You guessed right."

Su Nian grinned and gave a thumbs up, showing his appreciation for Gada.

But Gada didn't seem that happy; she felt more like Su Nian was brushing her off as if she were a child.

"To be precise, the place where I live now is probably a God-created universe?"

"?? God-created universe?"

Gada couldn't imagine it; as a Huang Nu of the Heavenly Tribe and a Third Progenitor who had lived for thousands of years, how could she not know the Concept of a universe?

Are you referring to a universe with a diameter of over 93 billion light-years, containing hundreds of billions of galaxies, each with tens of billions of stars?

Compared to the real universe, the so-called Earth and Solar System are nothing more than a drop in the ocean.

As for the glory created by the Heavenly Tribe over countless years? To the universe, it is nothing more than an insignificant speck of dust.

"Yes."

Su Nian nodded; he didn't care much about Gada's reaction, or rather, this was the normal reaction of a native after learning of the existence of Little Garden.

"And that universe is merely a larger playground."

"So, Third Progenitor, Gada Kukoukan, I ask you, are you interested in going to that world? It just so happens that I am short on manpower."

Su Nian raised his head and looked at Gada with an extremely calm gaze; for Su Nian, having one more Gada or one less Gada was about the same.

Out of interest, he might extend an invitation; of course, if the other party refused, then so be it.

Although Gada, as the Third Progenitor standing at the pinnacle of the world, had enjoyed thousands of years of worship comparable to a Divine Spirit and had dominated the world for thousands of years.

Such Merit, even if not from Pan-Human History, is enough for Gada to become a Four-digit after being observed by Little Garden.

But then what? That would just be the end of the road at Four-digit.

As for Su Nian, as long as he gathers all twelve Familiars and borrows a Sun Authority from Shiroyasha, those twelve Star Familiars could become Four-digit Familiars in a matter of minutes.

He could even obtain the inheritance of a Sun Authority, reaching a level that is not weak even among Four-digits.

As for God Group True Ancestors from other worlds like Gada, Little Garden has far too many of them; or rather, a significant portion of the Four-digits in Little Garden are beings similar to Gada.

While those who are not from Pan-Human History but hold considerable Merit within their own world's Human History will indeed ascend to become Four-digits upon arriving in Little Garden,

this also represents a stagnation; after all, they come from an alternate Human History, not Pan-Human History, and the upper limit of Merit obtained from such a single World Line is merely at the Four-digit level.

And if you want to jump from an alternate Human History to Pan-Human History, just see if those God Groups don't hammer you into the ground.

A Four-digit without a background, how far can they get in Little Garden?

Little Garden, at the end of the day, is also filled with worldly wisdom; if you don't have a God Group behind you, you still want to step onto the stage and gain Merit? I think you look like Merit yourself.

Facing Su Nian's invitation, Gada curled her lips and asked with a playful expression.

"Then what level do you count as in your world? And what level of strength would I be considered in your world?"

If it were the kind of place where she would just be a foot soldier upon arrival, she would respectfully decline such a world.

"Me? I just defeated a Demon King, retrieved the flag, and propped up a faction that had originally been destroyed; it's pretty much at the stage of rebuilding from the ruins."

As he spoke, Su Nian looked Gada over carefully and said with a hint of pity.

"In terms of strength, you're probably about on par with White Snow Princess? If you don't perform well, you might not even be able to beat White Snow Princess."

After all, White Snow Princess still possesses some Dragon Species bloodline; with Gada's Familiars, she might not even be able to break her defenses.

Not everyone has Izayoi Sakamaki's power to shatter Gifts; that can already be considered a super low-spec version of a Fantasy Killer in Little Garden.

"As for you, your level probably belongs to the Five-digit gatekeeper tier. By the way, the closer the digit is to 0, the stronger the strength; each digit represents a gap of one layer."

Gada was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up.

"In other words, above me, there are still the four levels of four, three, two, and one?"

"That's right."

Su Nian said affirmatively.

"However, One-digit currently only exists in theory; in reality, the strongest are the Two-digits, known as the 【Authority Domain Rulers】."

"Interesting, truly interesting."

Gada licked her lips, revealed an excited expression, and looked at Su Nian.

"What digit are you?"

Su Nian gave Gada a strange look, and just as Gada was feeling somewhat confused, Su Nian said.

"I only became a Four-digit not long ago."

"Four-digit?"

Gada looked at Su Nian; she thought of that Familiar of Su Nian's and was somewhat pleasantly surprised. It seems the gap between Four-digit and Five-digit isn't that big after all?

Perhaps she could also become a Four-digit?

"Are there any conditions to becoming a Four-digit?"

Su Nian looked at Gada and said with an expression that suggested she was thinking a bit too beautifully.

"Becoming a Four-digit? First, try to compare to Agulora; she only absorbed a small portion of my power."

Did she really think he hadn't seen through Gada's thoughts?

Gada was stunned for a long while, then looked at Agulora and said with a strange expression.

"Absorbed a small portion of your power..."

Honestly, this was a serious blow to her.
