Chapter 383: Summary: It's All Because the Black Heaven Doesn't Act Human!!
"Hou Jie, don't be like this, it's quite scary."
Looking at Sun Wukong in front of him, who wore a look of regret and was not playing by the rules, Su Nian couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth as he spoke.
Could it be that because the remnants of the Japanese Divine Group were incorporated by Buddhism, you, as the Fighting Victorious Buddha, have also been infected?
Forcibly suppressing the urge to retort in his heart, Su Nian asked curiously.
"Speaking of which, why did Hou Jie suddenly call me over? It couldn't really be for the sake of Xiaoming, could it?"
Hearing Su Nian's words, Sun Wukong sat cross-legged on the bed, scratched her face, and organized her thoughts before speaking.
"More or less. After all, Canary is my disciple, and I had a hand in the destruction of Arcadia back then."
"If I had reacted faster back then, perhaps..."
Saying this, she trailed off.
Arcadia, which her disciple Canary had poured all her energy into building, was suddenly wiped out, leaving behind only Su Nian, who she wasn't even sure was the legitimate successor of Arcadia.
This was also a blow to Sun Wukong.
If only she had noticed something was wrong earlier back then...
Hearing this apology, Su Nian turned his head and glanced at Sun Wukong.
"What is the point of apologizing to me?"
"There is indeed no point."
Sun Wukong shook her head, then shrugged helplessly.
"After all, Canary is already gone."
Although in Little Garden, it is not impossible for Gods and Buddhas to reverse the past, doing so would require challenging all the God Groups and obtaining more than half of the Sun Authority.
Faced with these two conditions, even the most reckless person would shrink back.
Rather than driving oneself crazy with such things, it is better to deceive oneself from the start by saying it "cannot be done."
The consequences of the last time she wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Court were still fresh in her memory.
"However, I still have to do something to make up for it, right?"
Sun Wukong smacked her lips with a half-smile and self-mockery.
If it were the Great Sage period in the past, she would have already taken her staff, fought from Spirit Mountain to the Heavenly Court, from the Heavenly Court to Ouroboros, challenged all the necessary God Groups, and done everything in her power to reverse this damn past.
But now...
One doesn't turn back until they hit the south wall, but after hitting the south wall, those who didn't die from the pain are afraid they will never hit it again.
The death of her two brothers was simply too high a price to pay.
She knew that if she raised the banner of the Great Sage again, the number of people following her into the fray would only increase, not decrease.
But why should she let others pay the price for what she wants to do?
And at this moment, Su Nian said faintly.
"If you are trying to persuade me, it's best not to beat around the bush, Hou Jie."
"Just say what you have to say directly, no need for this."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's expression changed, shifting directly from annoyance to excitement, like a real monkey.
"Good lad, I, Old Sun, really didn't misjudge you."
Sun Wukong skillfully jumped off the bed, hopped to Su Nian's side, hooked her arm around his neck, and said with a smile.
"Then I, Old Sun, will speak plainly."
Sun Wukong said with a giggle.
"Little Su, are you interested in becoming the Last King?"
Su Nian's expression froze for a moment, and then he said in a rather strange tone.
"Ah? Why is the Last King still able to find me at a time like this?"
"What do you mean 'still able to find you'?"
Sun Wukong rolled her eyes, then said with a giggle.
"We mean for you to become the current Last King; after all, isn't the position of the Last King still vacant?"
Because of Su Nian's actions, he killed the Two-digit Judas while in the identity of the Last King, Arthur.
This caused the value of the Last King's identity to skyrocket, as it was confirmed that this Spirit Status could truly help one become a Two-digit, and consequently, the intensity of the God Slayer War surged several times over.
But the price for killing Judas was that Arthur could not withstand such a massive output, and his Spirit Status shattered.
This led to the vacancy of the Last King's position.
Everyone has their eyes on this vacant position of the Last King; whoever obtains it will be attacked by all.
However, as an important component of the God Slayer War and the final link to completing the Last King's Spirit Status in the finals.
The position of the Last King cannot be left vacant, nor can someone too strong sit in this position.
After all, this advantage is simply too great.
Su Nian looked at Sun Wukong with a strange gaze for a long while, until the other party felt uncomfortable, before he spoke.
"So, you came over to persuade me to become this Last King?"
Going around in circles, did it still not lead anywhere?
Su Nian finally understood; this monkey was likely chosen herself to carry the burden of this Last King, and was now hurriedly trying to pass the buck.
One can only say that the downside of being famous is just this: you don't get any benefits, but instead often become a target for others to pass the buck to.
However, even so, Su Nian did not want to agree just like that.
He didn't want to find so many things to do for no reason.
And it was said as if the position of the Last King wouldn't be his if he didn't participate in the God Slayer War.
Would he be bored enough to go PVP with a bunch of old God King geezers? Is he tired of living too comfortably lately?
"It is not a request, but a commission."
Sun Wukong said righteously.
"I'm begging you, sister, let me have you take the blame for this."
Speaking of this, Sun Wukong felt quite embarrassed; after all, just yesterday, she and Su Nian had been discussing how to deal with Buddhism after the big monk left.
And yet, today she had to come begging to Su Nian.
And just at this moment.
Caw!
The sound of a crow's cry rang out in the meditation room.
Black feathers gently fell from the air, then gathered on the bed, forming a one-eyed crow with only a left eye.
The one-eyed crow stepped onto the desk, glanced at Sun Wukong, and spoke in human language.
"Regarding the following matters, it is somewhat inconvenient for Sun Wukong to speak, so leave the explanation to me."
"Odin?"
However, before Odin could react, she was grabbed by Su Nian.
"How did you escape? It seems I really might get to taste what crow soup is like today."
"Don't, don't, don't, I was sent by the Halloween Queen to assist you."
Odin said in a panic, fearing that the next moment Su Nian would take out a pot of boiling water to pluck her feathers.
She was such a small crow, she really didn't have much meat, and she wouldn't taste good at all.
"Wansheng?"
Su Nian raised an eyebrow; what kind of stunt was the Halloween Queen pulling now?
His intuition told him that the Halloween Queen definitely had no good intentions and certainly hadn't given up on her ideas about him.
"Mm-hmm."
Odin nodded, lifted her chin, and said triumphantly.
"That's right, I am now one of the Queen's people! You can call me Loki!!"
Hearing this, the corner of Su Nian's mouth twitched; he could clearly see that the Spirit Status within the crow before him was indeed the Evil God Loki he had captured.
But as a gift he had given to the Halloween Queen, he certainly held control; relying on the Mythological Apocrypha, he could directly deny the other party's identity as Loki.
So, this Odin was now completely under his control.
If Su Nian wanted to, he could even turn her into a non-entity, and the other party wouldn't even realize anything was wrong.
How can you be sure how much of your own Spirit Status and everything you see and perceive is true and how much is false?
However, since she was a bird under the Queen, Su Nian wouldn't be bored enough to kill the bird.
He paused, restrained the strangeness in his heart, and looked at the crow with as calm an expression as possible.
"So you are here representing the Queen this time? Or representing the Hydra?"
Su Nian narrowed his eyes and tapped the chair.
"I am representing..."
Odin stalled for a moment; before her was the current deputy leader of the Hydra, an existence second only to Heitian in power.
As for the Halloween Queen? She hadn't forgotten the Halloween Queen's words: to treat Su Nian as one would treat her; this relationship certainly couldn't be bad.
"Fine, I am here representing the Halloween Queen, to help you become the Last King and rescue the former members of Arcadia."
Odin lowered her arrogant head; in front of Su Nian, she really had no confidence at all.
After all, if it weren't for the fact that the Norse Ragnarok was truly happening, who would want to hang out with an old schemer like Heitian?
That old thing Heitian really doesn't act like a person; she had worked for him for thousands of years, and yet she was still just an ordinary crow.
You can't exploit someone like that!
"So, I gloriously rebelled, and taking the opportunity to deliver intelligence about the former members of Arcadia to you, I escaped the Hydra."
Odin said with pride.
"And then you were intercepted by people from Buddhism halfway, and even the intelligence about the former members of Arcadia was snatched away, is that right?"
Before Odin could finish, Su Nian continued to help Odin speak.
"In the end, the people from Buddhism took the former members of Arcadia away in advance, and then used this as a threat to demand that Hou Jie serve as the Last King, or rather, to have Hou Jie invite me to do this?"
Su Nian narrowed his eyes and stated the content Odin wanted to continue saying.
Finally, Su Nian also reached a conclusion.
"In summary, this is all because of you; if you had sent the intelligence to me via the network earlier, there wouldn't be so many messy things."
"Ahem."
Looking at Su Nian's cold expression, Odin coughed dryly, eased the awkwardness, and continued.
"In short, it's just one sentence: we are all on the same side."
"I am sincerely here to help you, and this is all that guy's fault; if he hadn't oppressed me so severely, I wouldn't have tried to find a way to leave the Hydra."
Hearing this, Su Nian said calmly.
"Oh? Is that so? Then let's do this: as a sign of sincerity, I will accept the wealth you embezzled."
"Whoa, that's quite a lot; you really were planning to rebuild the Nordic God Group."
In fact, Heitian was quite an honest person; although he didn't give Odin anything, he tacitly allowed Odin to make money in his name, take commissions, sell secondary intelligence, etc.
Heitian always turned a blind eye.
As for how much Odin had skimmed? Let's just say it was enough to build the foundation for a large God Group.
