Chapter 540

The lesser goddess named Bu Bu jumped out immediately upon hearing this, pointing at Da Gu and shouting angrily: "What about your mother! You've locked all our sisters here, threatening us with death every day to make us reveal the island master's whereabouts, and you still claim you haven't done anything wrong?!"

The fearful Da Gu hurriedly explained: "That was the Prince's order; he wants to obtain the adventurer's news and the chief divine artifact, demanding that we definitely find out the whereabouts of the Wind Spirit Goddess so as to conveniently locate the adventurer. We too had no choice, and we only made verbal threats, we didn't lay a hand on anyone!"

"Is a single verbal threat enough to be fine? Do you know how much mental harm you've caused us? Men like you should die a hundred times!" Bu Bu's face flushed with anger, the more she spoke the angrier she got, and she even went up and kicked him.

Prince Yunlan

He Er Na

Prince Yunlan did not kill the people of Wind Spirit Island; he kept them to force He Er Na to Appear, then through He Er Na to follow the clue to the source, seize his Sword of Civilization.

If they were killed, it would surely provoke He Er Na's anger and vigilance; perhaps she wouldn't come back, instead directly taking him to flee to the depths of the Elemental Sea.

This idea is not wrong, but given that Prince Yunlan held absolute initiative, it's surprising that he didn't do anything bad to those defenseless pretty girls.

Elemental Sea

Ancient Secret Realm

Or perhaps because Prince Yunlan is an elf, innately possessing a cleanliness trait, he strongly objects to such impropriety toward girls, so he himself refrains and does not allow his subordinates to act recklessly?

No matter how you say it, the outcome is good; Wind Spirit Island suffered little damage, not nearly as bad as imagined.

Wind Spirit Goddess

Unexpectedly, Bing Lu then said: "He Er Na, this person cannot stay! He barged into my healing grounds, glimpsed the ancient Mi Jing; if we don't kill him, Wind Spirit Island will never have peace!"

"What?!" Upon hearing this, He Er Na's expression drastically changed.

Prince

Wind Spirit Island had once been occupied by a powerful figure of unknown strength; later that figure vanished, leaving behind a Mi Jing and a chaos tree seed.

Upper God

After Prince Yunlan arrived, she was taken out, and the Mi Jing was naturally discovered.

Magic Staff

Divine Punishment Power

If this were to spread, it would surely attract a large number of experts from the Elemental Sea to come explore.

Chaos Tree Seed

Chief Divine Artifact

Bing Lu pointed out the reason for killing him, Da Gu again kowtowed frantically, defending: "I was only ordered to bring the stronger people from the island here; I had no idea what a Mi Jing was!"

Bing Lu gave a cold snort: "But you know now, I've already said it all."

Marquis-level

What an overbearing reason!

Da Gu wore a mournful face, almost depressed.

He hastily said again, "I can sign a master-servant contract with any of you—really, I'm serious! As long as you don't kill me, let me do anything!"

By now he had no more hope left; he could only hope his Upper God–level ability would be noticed, taken on as a contract servant, to spare his life.

This remark indeed moved many people.

Wind Spirit Island had few Upper Gods to begin with; after Bei Ni's death, only He Er Na and the Ice Deer remain.

If we could have one more, it would still be pretty good.

But...

The island master didn't think so.

He Er Na frowned in thought, weighed everyone's opinions, and finally said coldly, "Kill!"

"Why?!" Da Gu's face changed—he felt as if the sky were collapsing.

His bitter pleas went unanswered; even offering to abandon his dignity and willingly become a slave was rejected.

He is a god!

Have you ever suffered such humiliation?

Her Er Na's refusal snapped his last remaining thread.

In an instant his expression shifted from helpless to sorrowful, then to furious, finally erupting in a roar: "Scum! I'll fight you to the death!"

Hum~

Energy surged from within him, its intensity rivaling that of a marquess-level Blood Marquis.

Not good, he's burning his divinity to the death!

He Er Na gave a cold shout, flipped her jade hand, and wind-system divine power surged forth, forming a huge hand that seized Da Gu.

Ice Deer also acted at the same time, a long rope appearing in her hand, quickly binding Da Gu.

Boom!

In the next second, Da

Gu's aura surged, his divinity's origin burned completely, turning into three times his own strength, instantly breaking free of the ropes and the giant hand's restraint.

He gave a low shout, a magic staff appeared in his hand, thrust into the ground, and a marquess-level magical force spread out, instantly sweeping across a radius of hundreds of meters, enveloping everyone.

"Since you won't give me a way out, let's all die together!" he roared, all his power bursting forth as he invoked divine punishment, intending to destroy this land.

Whoosh~

At that moment, a palm-sized ice arrow flew forth and struck his head.

A soft pat sound.

Da Gu, whose momentum had peaked, suddenly stiffened in place.

The energy from burning his divinity dispersed in all directions, but the divine punishment did not descend.

A twelve-figure damage value, visible only to Xiao Feng, floated up; this ill-fated Upper God died instantly.

His body remained stiff in place, keeping the posture of both hands gripping the staff thrust into the ground, utterly motionless.

Bing Lu saw his aura weakening, angrily shouted, "Playing god with tricks!" and lashed out with a whip.

Smack!

With a pull of the divine artifact whip, Da Gu's corpse crashed down, the residual divine spark power spreading out, stirring up a gust of wind in the mountains.

Soon after, the gale subsided and the energy fluctuations returned to calm.

Bing Lu gloated, thinking she had instantly defeated her opponent, clapped her hands, and lightly snorted, "How dare something like that call itself an Upper God? I can't even beat someone at the bottom!"

Xiao Feng: …

Sigh, what a poor fellow.

Looking at Da Gu's corpse, he felt somewhat sentimental, thinking this guy was too unlucky.

Having followed the wrong master and encountered such a fierce player, he was doomed to a bad end.

After his death, not even a divine spark was left behind, only a relic bag.

His divine spark had been completely burned out, leaving nothing.

Just a moment ago, the entirety of his divine spark's energy had burst forth.

Its total energy was terrifying; if not for the Ice Arrow instantly killing him, even He Er Na and Bing Lu working together could not have taken him down in a short time.

By then, about eighty percent of the Lower and Middle God women on the mountain would be killed or injured.

Xiao Feng made a move, too, in order to reduce losses.

After instantly killing Da Gu, he told the crowd, "It's fine, everyone go back on your own; as for the Storm God Kingdom side, I'll think of a solution."
