Chapter 282: A Single Sentence That Makes Shiroyasha Completely Overheat

Amidst the chaotic space-time, Su Nian and Shiroyasha arrived inside a castle covered only by a thin canopy.

The canopy here was opened, allowing the sun's radiance to shine directly into the castle's courtyard.

Su Nian and Shiroyasha stepped onto the snow-white, smooth marble floor, surrounded by flowerbeds filled with blooming flowers of the four seasons.

Looking at these flowerbeds and their extravagant decorations and ornaments, Shiroyasha couldn't help but curse under her breath.

"Flashy and gaudy; I don't get why Wansheng wastes money on this."

Yet for some reason, Su Nian detected a hint of bitterness in Shiroyasha's tone.

After all, as the most famous wealthy woman in Little Garden, the Halloween Queen could not be compared to someone like Shiroyasha, who was penniless and relied entirely on public accounts for her expenses.

Now, she couldn't even use public accounts anymore; she was using Su Nian's account.

Crossing the flowerbeds filled with seasonal blooms, at the end of a path as white as jade, was a small pavilion.

The pavilion was constructed entirely of marble, with no seams between the beams, pillars, and tiled roof, as if it had been carved from a single massive piece of marble.

And beneath the pavilion, beside a stone table, a charming and innocent-looking woman wearing a platinum crown, dressed in a fiery red gown, with hair as brilliant as the sun and pupils like rubies, was watching Su Nian and Shiroyasha at the courtyard entrance with a smile on her lips.

That was the Three-digit Exceptional Star Spirit, an existence revered by numerous God Groups as the Queen.

She was also the only Star Spirit who, despite being a Demon King, was forbidden from being subjugated by the Heavenly Army and the various major God Groups.

She was also the only transcendent existence who had only the moniker 【Halloween Queen】 and whose true name was known to no one.

"My Knight, come here."

The golden-haired Queen brushed a strand of hair from her temple and smiled at Su Nian.

Seeing this, Su Nian took a deep breath and began to walk toward the central pavilion.

Just then, Shiroyasha suddenly blocked Su Nian's path, reached out to stop him, and shouted at the Halloween Queen with an unfriendly tone.

"What 'your Knight'? Su Nian is my Subordinate God!"

"Oh? Is that so? Since he is not my Knight, then please return; the Heavenly Courtyard does not welcome outsiders."

The Halloween Queen said with a light laugh, and Su Nian could clearly see the word "delight" in her eyes.

It seemed that targeting and persecuting Shiroyasha brought her great pleasure.

Well, one could remove the word "seemed."

Moreover, Su Nian guaranteed that the Halloween Queen was definitely planning to persecute Shiroyasha through him.

Instantly, Su Nian felt a headache; this Queen was indeed as difficult to deal with as ever.

Sure enough, the next moment, Shiroyasha jumped out, teleported in front of the Halloween Queen, and said loudly.

"You golden-haired shrimp, what do you mean by that? Can't I, your elder sister, bring my own Subordinate God to visit you?"

Oh no~ I'm done for!!

These words flashed through Su Nian's mind; it was completely over now.

The conflict had been completely ignited.

The Halloween Queen did not speak, her smile remaining as usual... or was it? From her furrowed brows, one could tell that the Halloween Queen's mood at this moment was far from pleasant.

"Oh? Is that so? I am not the 'elder sister' who was played around by the gods and even sealed her own Spirit Status!!"

The Halloween Queen said through gritted teeth; did she really want to have such an "elder sister"?

Wasn't it because of Shiroyasha's recklessness that she became a Sun Star Spirit, snatched away her Sun Authority, and blocked her path?

And now she had the nerve to call herself her elder sister?

Shiroyasha's expression froze, then she narrowed her eyes, pulled Su Nian over, and mocked the Halloween Queen.

"Heh, I have more Sun Authority than you! And I have a young Creator God as a Retainer!"

Wait, no? How did the flames of war spread to me?

Before Su Nian could even react, he had already been grabbed by Shiroyasha.

Just as Su Nian was still looking bewildered, the Halloween Queen looked at Shiroyasha before her with a smile, saying with a dangerous grin.

"Compared to a useless Star Spirit who can't even support her own Retainers, I think it's understandable for him to come here and be a Knight."

"That's still better than a Knight who is afraid of her own Lord and doesn't even dare to find her. Hehe, I live with Su Nian every day now, you know."

Shiroyasha chuckled twice and happily patted Su Nian's sturdy body.

"That's still better than someone who eats her Retainers' food and spends her Retainers' money every single day!"

The Halloween Queen smiled as she pointed out Shiroyasha's embarrassing current situation.

"You, do you want to fight?"

Shiroyasha stood up with a start, pressed her forehead against the Halloween Queen's, and said.

The Halloween Queen's aura was not weak either, and she began to lock horns with Shiroyasha just like that.

Yes, the forehead-to-forehead kind.

"Come on, let's fight. Let's see if you, who have lost your Geocentrism Spirit Grid, can fight, or if I am the better one?"

The Halloween Queen said without flinching, her gaze filled with intense aggression and a sense of threat.

She really didn't mind having a fight with Shiroyasha.

In any case, she wouldn't be the one at a disadvantage now.

If she won, it would be even easier to snatch Su Nian away openly.

Both sides had been glaring at each other aggressively for a while.

"Heh, golden-haired shrimp."

"Hmph, white-haired brat."

The two "children" snorted coldly at each other and turned their faces away.

Picking up the teapot on the table, Shiroyasha took a gulp, smacked her lips, and said.

"Good tea. Is this tea from Doumu's place?"

"I didn't expect you to still have some treasured away."

Doumu Yuanjun, a being known as the Mother of All Stars, though no longer in Little Garden, still has her legends circulating among the Star Spirit Circle of Little Garden.

If one were to say Zeus is the number one in all of Little Garden for liking to adopt children, then Doumu could absolutely be called the second.

However, Zeus accepts anyone, while Doumu only likes to adopt Star Spirits as children.

Among them, the Halloween Queen and Shiroyasha are the ones she has harassed the most.

Even after being rejected, she would still shamelessly come over to continue harassing them; that was also the period when Shiroyasha and Wansheng had the best relationship.

After all, one does not hit a smiling face; in front of someone who was full of the aura of their own mother, Shiroyasha and Wansheng simply could not quarrel.

Of course, Star Spirits do not have mothers.

"I'm not like you, wasting and guzzling it every day, so of course there is some left."

The Halloween Queen took a light sip and said with a smile.

But Shiroyasha sniffed, tasted it carefully, and suddenly slapped the table.

"Do you really think I can't taste it? Goldilocks, this is clearly fresh, just picked from the Starry Tea Tree!"

After all, Doumu is a woman who wants to become the Mother of All Stars; abducting Star Spirits is naturally her specialty, and she is very skilled at cultivating spiritual roots that are extremely beneficial to Star Spirits and can promote their growth.

"I just asked Doumu for a cutting."

The Halloween Queen looked at Shiroyasha and said indifferently.

"I'm not like some people who know nothing but fighting."

"You!!"

Shiroyasha gritted her teeth and glared at the Halloween Queen.

Lies do not hurt people, but the truth is often a sharp blade; in fact, it really is like this—besides fighting, Shiroyasha truly knows nothing else.

"Alright, let's not talk about these trivial matters."

The Halloween Queen picked up her teacup with composure, took a small sip, and said.

"Speak, you two came to find me suddenly; there must be something you need my help with."

The Halloween Queen said very confidently; she had some self-awareness regarding her own reputation. Generally speaking, if there were nothing going on, Su Nian and Shiroyasha would not be bored enough to come find her.

"What, can't I come to show off my Retainer?"

Shiroyasha looked at the posturing woman before her with a fierce expression.

This bitch always wants to mess with her state of mind; it is simply detestable.

As expected, she shouldn't have let Su Nian come to find this person; if she had known, she would have gone to beg her own boss.

The boss is much better than this annoying goldilocks.

"You, you probably knew what we came to find you for a long time ago, right?"

Shiroyasha looked at the leisurely woman in front of her, speechless, and let out a scoff.

"I don't believe that with such an obvious shift in Mythology, you wouldn't know?"

"Oh, so it's just this little thing?"

The Halloween Queen said with little interest. Didn't Shiroyasha know that she didn't have a God Group at all, so how could a shift in Mythology affect her?

"Su Nian has become a god under the identity of Arthur."

"Oh~, interesting."

The Halloween Queen became interested for a moment, perked up, and narrowed her eyes. Her intuition told her that an unimaginable surprise was waiting for her next.

"Forget it, Boss, let me say it. The situation is a bit complicated and can't be explained in a short while."

Su Nian stepped forward and directly switched to the Spirit Status of Arthur.

The next moment, the Halloween Queen narrowed her eyes in pleasant surprise and carefully examined Su Nian's Spirit Status.

"This is the authority of a God Group core. Oh my, the Divinity of the Round Table Knights has also emerged..."

For a moment, even the Halloween Queen could not help but feel overwhelmed by the surprise.

After all, she had spent a great deal of money to build and promote the "Legend of King Arthur," just to establish a God Group and revitalize the legacy she had inherited from the Dystopia War.

But who could have imagined that the Arthur she cultivated died in the Dystopia War.

In the end, the entire Round Table Knights were crafted by the Halloween Queen into Inheritance Spirit Statuses similar to Divinity.

It can only be said that they inherited their original Gifts and names, and had nothing to do with the Round Table Knights originally cultivated as the foundation of a God Group.

And what surprised the Halloween Queen the most was that the Divinities of the Round Table Knights carried by Su Nian were all composite Divinities.

Moreover, most of these composite Divinities had complex origins, with many tracing back to the Celtic, Norse, Canaanite... God Groups.

How many powerful Spirit Statuses could this produce?

And it could also revitalize the basic assets of the God Group she had inherited; this was simply a huge profit.

She had thought that investing in Su Nian wouldn't be a loss and would definitely earn a return, but she never expected the first dividend to come so quickly.

For a moment, the Halloween Queen's gaze toward Su Nian became even more fervent.

The Star Holy Sword from before was one thing, but how could there be more surprises?

But very quickly, the Halloween Queen became unhappy.

It is a pity, how could such a good Knight follow the wrong master?

Why wasn't I the first one to find Su Nian, but Shiroyasha instead?

This white-haired brat probably used up all her luck in her entire life on being born and finding Su Nian, right?

The Halloween Queen thought with extreme annoyance; if she could, she would even want to snatch Su Nian away on the spot.
