Chapter 231: You have lost your father, but you still have me

"I always get the feeling that this kid is even better at stirring up trouble than Canary."

Mata, having just walked out of Arcadia, said to Uesugi Kenshin in front of her with a hint of emotion.

Regarding Su Nian's calm reaction just now, although it didn't look very normal, the key point was that Su Nian's reaction was simply too flat.

I just feel that the Cross Religion affair has something to do with him; who knows, this kid might have quietly pulled off something big.

This kid holds a grudge.

"Mithra is dead."

Uesugi Kenshin said with a sigh, her back turned to Mata.

"You can drop the word 'feeling' now; he really is better at causing trouble than Canary."

"Wait, no? Who died? That old monster Mithra died? That's impossible, right?"

Mata frowned and said, somewhat incredulously.

"Isn't he a self-proclaimed Avatar of that person? He was just killed like that?"

"Wait a second, you really mean dead, right? And not..."

Mata thought of a more serious possibility and subconsciously opened her mouth, but suppressed her question.

"It's pretty much what you're thinking."

Uesugi Kenshin nodded slightly, looked at the sun of Little Garden, and squinted her eyes slightly as she said.

"Mithra's Spirit Status can no longer be observed within Human History."

In Little Garden, the difficulty of truly killing a God or Buddha, even an Acquired God, is immense.

Because after Gods and Buddhas die, their Spirit Status returns to Human History, drawing faith and Merit from Human History until it can support the return of the Gods and Buddhas.

Not to mention that a God King like Mithra surely has an indefinite number of Avatars outside, so his return would only be faster.

Moreover, as the Heavenly Army, there is another special duty: to guard those Gods and Buddhas waiting to return, preventing other existences from occupying their faith and ensuring they can return.

Hearing this, Mata said with a subtle expression.

"Isn't there another possibility? That is, Mithra's Spirit Status was devoured by another existence, who occupied his faith."

"And there aren't many existences capable of doing this, but there are still one or two in Little Garden."

Speaking of this, Mata's expression became strange.

"For example, Indra?"

The air went silent in an instant, and Uesugi Kenshin turned her head, staring at Mata, dumbfounded.

No, how did you pin this blame on Indra?

"If it were Indra, that would be better; at least we wouldn't have to be so tied up."

Saying this, Uesugi Kenshin sighed and said.

"It's just, do you think that's possible?"

The current Indra is no longer the strongest God of War he once was, who single-handedly crusaded against the Humanity's Final Trial 【Kali Yuga】, and during his Descent to Human period, single-handedly crusaded against Azi Dahaka and the evil dragon Vritra, who was even stronger than Azi Dahaka.

The Indra of that time was the true number one in Little Garden, aside from the Three-digit Exceptional Halloween Queen.

Even the vast majority of Gods and Buddhas at the time suspected that Indra, like the Halloween Queen, was a Three-digit Exceptional, or even a Two-digit Universal Truth.

Nengtian Emperor, the omnipotent Emperor.

An existence that even the Great Heavenly Venerable of the East had to treat with courtesy.

Unlike now, where Indra has become a useless god that anyone can step on, and the other party doesn't even dare to end his Descent to Human state and return to Heaven.

He is afraid that if he ends the Descent to Human state, he won't even be able to maintain a Three-digit Spirit Status.

That would be the beginning of a true disaster.

But even now, Indra can't even protect his own daughter; it is estimated that many existences have already guessed Indra's current state.

They have already begun to test the bottom line of the Heavenly Army.

Moon Shadow City was one of their tests, exposing Indra's paper tiger nature.

Hearing this, Mata also sighed, understanding what Uesugi Kenshin meant.

"But if that's the case, doesn't that confirm that Su Nian is involved with Humanity's Final Trial? At the very least, the Cross Religion has an excuse to frame that kid."

"Regardless of whether Su Nian is actually involved with Humanity's Final Trial, as long as they have this excuse, Su Nian's days will likely be difficult."

How could the Cross Religion care whether Su Nian is actually involved with Humanity's Final Trial? They just want to target Su Nian.

And the current Cross Religion largely retains the style of the era when the Lord of Hosts was still around; regardless of anything, they hammer away the moment they get a chance.

Those fanatics don't care about your reasons or excuses.

"But the difficulty now is that this kid seems to really have a connection with that Angra Mainyu..."

Mata sighed; Uesugi Kenshin understood the rest without her saying it.

They also had their guesses about how the Vajra came back.

She just felt a faint sorrow for this Little Garden; what kind of monster is the current Humanity's Final Trial?

They still missed the Humanity's Final Trial before 【Kali Yuga】; the Humanity's Final Trial back then wasn't as outrageous as it is now.

Even a Divine Spirit in the Descent to Human state could be soloed; for example, Hachiman was soloed by Susanoo during his Descent to Human, which could be called picking up Merit for free.

The Humanity's Final Trials starting from 【Kali Yuga】 have been one more outrageous than the last.

Dystopia, Absolute Evil, and the recently popped up Angra Mainyu... what kind of monsters are these?

Even worse is that Su Nian, the current leader of Arcadia in whom countless people place their hopes, has a high probability of having already defected to Angra Mainyu.

This is as bad as Canary defecting to Dystopia; it's despair-inducing.

If this is true news... Mata now has an urge to leave Little Garden.

This Little Garden... why hasn't it finished yet?

"But having said that, Indra wouldn't be completely unprepared, would he? His daughter is about to be trained into a pet by someone; let's hope he doesn't end up committing double suicide with that kid."

After Mata finished speaking, she let out a snort of laughter.

"Almost forgot, his daughter isn't that easy to kill, she'll just resent this irresponsible father even more, right?"

Six Paths Reincarnation, the true Secret Treasure forged by the World Honored One and that Lady Houtu, even the remaining Simulated Star Creation Map: Six Paths Reincarnation is no less than the Vajra, containing the truth of 【Reincarnation】 within.

It is evident that the true 【Six Paths Reincarnation】 is very likely a Star Creation-level treasure.

In Little Garden, if there is anything that can circumvent the absolute god-slaying characteristic brought by Humanity's Final Trial, then 【Reincarnation】 is the only answer.

Even she, Bishamonten, only managed to recover by reincarnating through the remnants of the reincarnation.

Otherwise, how could the damage brought by Humanity's Final Trial be so easily healed?

Moreover, 【Reincarnation】 can even deceive Little Garden Central and Human History, truly becoming a brand-new individual.

That is how the Humanity's Final Trial that the Eternal Heaven turned into managed to cross over.

"I haven't offended you recently, have I, Mata?"

A male voice filled with helplessness rang out in the surroundings.

Mata, who was about to walk out of the Central Hub, suddenly discovered that the color tone of the surroundings had dropped several levels; dark clouds gathered, and wild winds howled.

Mata naturally understood that she had been pulled into a hidden secret realm by a third party.

Her mouth twitched, and with the embarrassment of being caught by the person herself while speaking ill of them, she barely maintained a smile and looked toward her left.

At this moment, a male wearing a deep purple suit, without a tie, and sporting a single ponytail hairstyle, was standing there, looking at Mata with a half-smile.

"Slandering me behind my back? Heh, your salary for a thousand years is gone."

"No, don't..."

Mata's mood plummeted instantly.

On the other side, Uesugi Kenshin gave Mata a covert glance, smiled, and then looked at Indra coldly.

"You actually dare to show your face; aren't you afraid of being caught by Asura?"

"If my foolish daughter were that sharp, I'd probably wake up laughing in my dreams, wouldn't I?"

Indra's mouth curled slightly, unsure if he was praising Asura or mocking the other party's dullness.

"What about Su Nian?"

Uesugi Kenshin asked Indra with a hint of a wicked smile.

Instantly, the smile on Indra's face froze.

He looked at Uesugi Kenshin before him and scratched his head in embarrassment.

"That shouldn't be the case, right... I should be considered hidden, right?"

"Are you sure?"

Mata heard Indra's words and asked back with a hint of mischief.

"Look at that game board, and then speak."

It contained the entire Human History, from the past Mythology era all the way to the present, overlapping worlds of different eras and different times.

Indra lowered his head, somewhat silent and bewildered.

"Are you sure this was built by that kid?"

Could it be that I really messed up this time?

Could my stupid daughter have already discovered me?

Just as Indra thought, a cold gaze devoid of any emotion swept over him.

It made Indra's scalp tingle.

Oh well, it's completely over now.

"Asura, how does it feel to see Indra? Did you feel any fatherly love?"

Su Nian rubbed Asura's head and said with a hint of teasing laughter.

Indra looked at the collar on Asura's neck and that golden bone-shaped dog tag, and his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

My stupid daughter, what exactly have you been trained into by this kid Su Nian?

Indra was truly regretting his neglect of Asura now.

He finally understood why Mata and Uesugi Kenshin had been sending messages urging him to come over just now.

"Fatherly love? Master, I do not have a father, nor have I ever felt fatherly love."

Asura said with an exceptionally innocent expression, her eyes filled entirely with Su Nian, leaving no room for Indra.

"You don't have a father, but you still have me."

"I can completely serve as the guide for your life."

"Isn't that right?"

Su Nian turned around, opened his arms toward Asura, and mimicked the tone of that Otto.

Damn, what an infuriating thing to say.

Especially when Indra, the biological father, was still present; it was a critical hit of one hundred thousand points to Indra.

You kid, I don't think I have any grudges against you, do I?

Indra glared at Su Nian resentfully, but only under Su Nian's gaze, which was full of pity and disdain.

The daughter's debt is paid by the father, and besides, we agreed you'd lend me the Vajra, so why did you drop the ball at the critical moment?

Indra felt a sense of guilt and withdrew his gaze in embarrassment.

He was in a tight spot; he couldn't refute it, and he couldn't accept it either.

If he refuted it, he would likely provoke that little ancestor, but if he accepted it, wouldn't he be truly "dead"?

Hesitating for a moment, Indra looked at the kid who was teasing his daughter like he was training a pet, and gritted his teeth as he shouted.

"Uesugi, let me go immediately; today, it's either him or me!"

Indra flushed red, breathing heavily, and glared viciously at Su Nian.

He had quite the urge to perish together with Su Nian.

Opposite him, Su Nian acted as if nothing had happened, grinning as he pinched Asura's cheek, while Asura cooperated by showing a happy expression.

Although neither of them spoke, the sense of mockery was fully conveyed.

To the side, Uesugi Kenshin curled her lip and muttered in a low voice.

"I didn't stop you, did I?"

A snort of laughter broke out; Indra's face turned even darker, and he glared at Mata.

Mata could only sheepishly wipe the smile off her face.

"Have they left?"

Indra regained his composure and asked with a normal expression, not actually feeling much anger toward Su Nian.

"They've already left; they probably just came to take a look at you."

Uesugi Kenshin said indifferently.

"And to vent their dissatisfaction along the way, I suppose."

As she spoke, Uesugi Kenshin shrugged her shoulders and looked at Indra, somewhat speechless.

"But speaking of which, your daughter has been trained into this state; are you really not going to do anything about it?"

"You've truly sent your own daughter into the tiger's den, haven't you?"

Indra had paid attention to this daughter; she was clear on the fact that when Asura went to challenge Jialing back then, it was she who had asked the Bull Demon King to mediate.

Otherwise, that matter would have blown up completely.

And then there was Sachi; did she really have no feelings at all for her own daughter?

It was precisely because Indra paid more attention to Asura that Sachi had also begun to target Asura.

No, really? Getting jealous of her own daughter?

Even Uesugi Kenshin could only say that being love-struck... was truly abstract.

As for Asura... she was truly unlucky to have ended up with such a pair of parents.

A love-struck, yandere mother, and a useless, weak, escapist father.

Almost forgot, Asura's birth was also an accident; the birth rate among Gods and Buddhas was already pitifully low, let alone for a veteran playboy like Indra.

Controlling things to prevent one's own children from being born was not a difficult task.

It was fundamentally impossible for things to go wrong.

But just as no one knows whether an accident or tomorrow will arrive first, Indra had an accident.

No one knew what Sachi had collaborated on with the Buddhism Ksitigarbha Lineage, but in the end, Asura was born.

"Sending her into the tiger's den is better than being schemed against until death, isn't it?"

Indra sighed.

"My poor, ill-fated daughter."
