Chapter 1483: Persuading the Flying Bird God

This last sentence was said rather casually.

Actually, a powerhouse like the Soul Nation Lord doesn't care at all about whether to be the Nation Lord or not.

In the Battle Qi Divine Realm, he never served as Nation Lord; he just devoted himself to cultivation.

The reason he hasn't stepped down is merely to make mobilizing personnel easier, which is convenient for gathering intelligence.

But the truly crucial things are usually done by him personally, so abdicating is no big deal for him.

"Good, then I'll bring people over later to take over your position."

As for this kind of thing—shearing NPCs for wool—Xiao Feng has no qualms about it.

He himself isn't short of money, but the guild is! The war zone is!

The development of the Blue Star War Zone requires vast resources; the more god-nation treasuries we seize, the easier future development will be.

How much wealth is there in the treasuries of the 23 god-nations?

Probably only the system backend knows!

If we could take them all, even if the population still can't compare to the Azure Sky World, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Once players' individual strength rises, the Myriad Heavens Battlefield's development will surely lead the way, eventually becoming a true top-tier war zone!

Xiao Feng left with the War Goddess.

This time they went to the Blazing Flame God Nation.

The Blazing Flame God Bàyàn has existed for a very long age and knows about the Ancient Era Ancient God War.

However, his knowledge of the Ancient Gods is limited; he cannot provide much help.

Moreover, he thinks his strength is fine, has no immediate plan to abdicate, and still needs the god-nation's manpower and resources to help find a way to awaken his Mother Goddess.

Xiao Feng told him that when he has time in the future he will try going to Star Realm Mountain, but he made no promise to definitely retrieve the Nine-Revolutions Return Soul Pill.

After all, he isn't very confident about this; he can only do his best and leave the rest to fate.

After leaving the Blazing Flame God Nation, he then made a trip to the Flying Bird God Nation.

Xiufu had invited him for drinks and asked for his help before, so they do have some personal connection.

For her safety's sake, Xiao Feng decided to help her resolve the "tree invites wind" trouble, relieving her of the burden of being Nation Lord!

As for the Ancient Gods and such, this young Master God surely doesn't know; asking would be pointless.

He and the War Goddess teleported to the Flying Bird Capital and then flew together to the palace.

At this moment, Xiao Feng felt a little excited.

Two of the Three Great Beauties of the Yuan Su Shen Yu are about to meet!

Although they aren't acquainted and it's not proper to compete in beauty, for him personally it's definitely a fine visual experience!

"Little Mi, take off your battle helmet in a bit, okay~"

He said to the War Goddess in his heart.

"Yes, Master." Mi now obeys him without question, not even asking why, and simply agrees.

Soon afterward the two arrived at the rear garden of the Flying Bird God Nation.

At this time the Flying Bird God was training in the garden; sensing their arrival, she actively sent a voice transmission to guide them.

The two floated down into the garden.

Xiufu's charm as the "Counterfeit Hundred Flowers God" once again presented itself before Xiao Feng.

The scent of a hundred flowers wafted over, pure white feathers, a graceful figure, an elegant yet non‑revealing robe—while walking she directly revealed her whole leg……

This visual effect, compared to the War Goddess in armor—heroic and spirited, showing half a thigh and half a stunning face—is each to their own, with starkly different styles.

"Xiao Feng Warrior, long time no see. War God, I've long heard your great name."

Xiufu walked over gracefully, her pure white wings fluttering slightly behind her; her whole body glowed white, with no blemish on her face or figure.

The War Goddess politely replied: "Flying Bird God, pleasure to meet you."

Xiao Feng then smiled and asked: "Why are you alone? Where are your several predecessors?"

Xiufu replied: "Their divine souls have long since scattered and cannot be restored. I sent them to a peaceful place to enjoy their twilight years; they will never come back here."

Xiao Feng secretly smiled, somewhat suspecting that this young Female Master God worried that the elders' existence would let the old ministers obstruct her words.

It's clear she somewhat enjoys the feeling of holding power.

Thus getting her to abdicate is somewhat difficult.

"What a pity." Xiao Feng sighed.

"What pity?" Xiufu Majesty felt puzzled.

Xiao Feng said: "I've only just returned; I saw the Ocean God slain by adventurers, and I also heard many adventurers are plotting regicide. I was worried you'd come to harm. I originally wanted to advise you to let those former monarchs come out to ward off disaster, but you abandoned them."

The Flying Bird God lightly laughed: "You're worried about me? Xiao Feng Warrior, are you sure you're not just sweet‑talking?"

As a Master God, she isn't some pure naïve girl; she understands men's tricks quite well.

"How could that be."

Xiao Feng absolutely denied it, then said: "Everything I say is true; being Nation Lord is too risky. Today's adventurers are each more ferocious than the last—once they show any hint, they won't care whether you're beautiful or not; they'll attack with ruthless brutality! Don't believe me? Ask the War Goddess—she once encountered a terrifying adventurer who destroyed her mortal body; if I hadn't rescued her, she would have already perished."

Mi: ……

Well, indeed there was such a terrifying fellow—he even dared to lay hands on her, this beautiful one, shattering her bones, and even sought to utterly annihilate her divine status.

It's also true that Xiao Feng "saved" her, giving her a chance at rebirth.

That statement is correct, except that this whole affair was done solely by Xiao Feng himself!

To help her master persuade the Flying Bird God and seize the Flying Bird God Nation, she said: "Indeed so; nowadays adventurers are beyond our control. To live a bit longer, I have no choice but to abandon the source of faith. After all, staying alive is most important."

"This……"

Hearing this, Xiufu's brows furrowed slightly, her face showing difficulty.

Xiao Feng's words she could dismiss as mere cajoling, but the War Goddess is different—she is one of the Three Great Beauties of the Shen Jie, famed equally with her, and at the same time a Nation Lord.

The matter of the female war goddess stepping down has spread throughout the entire Shen Jie; she naturally is also well aware of it.

Such an existence would not speak recklessly; unless truly feeling danger, it would never abandon the temple, this source of gathering faith.

She hesitated and said: "Adventurers are indeed an unstable factor, but I possess the Heart of the Divine Kingdom; surely there is no danger."

Xiao Feng saw that the effect of a beautiful woman coaxing another beautiful woman was so good; he immediately added effort, speaking earnestly: "Your Majesty Xiu Fu, take heed of the lessons of the Dragon God and Sea God; the Heart of the Divine Kingdom is not without flaw."

The female war goddess immediately echoed, saying: "Some dangers are invisible."

The two sang in harmony, making the Flying Bird Sovereign God lose his smile, his brows furrowed with worry.

She loved the feeling of being in a high position; as the monarch it was very comfortable—just a word and countless people would rush through fire and water for her, that grasp of absolute royal power fascinated her.

She also liked the temple, which could halve her cultivation pressure, freeing up more time to grow flowers and grass, brew her favorite liquor, or make beautiful clothes for herself.

If she were to step down improperly as monarch, perhaps all this would leave her.

But…… mortal danger is no joke!

If she truly encountered the situation of the Ocean Sovereign God, being beaten to death by millions of adventurers, that would be too tragic.

Beauty is not a divine artifact; strength is!

Although she also liked the feeling of being honored as one of the Three Great Beauties of Shen Jie, she knows that once interests are involved, no one will show mercy just because she is beautiful.

They might even strike harder!

Faced with ever-stronger tens of billions of adventurers, safety has become an urgent problem.
