Chapter 428: Let's Drink Today, Be Happy Today (12)

Gradually, the all-encompassing, all-penetrating sourceless phantom light began to dissipate bit by bit.

But the dissipation speed is very slow; at this rate, at least three hours are needed to fully return to normal.

Thus, all living beings within a hundred-li radius still dared not move, crouching in place, even having to clench their anal sphincter when passing gas, lest the noise be too loud and cause sudden death.

The powerhouses of Yueliangcheng also noticed the abnormality of Grey City, and various detection devices were aimed at Grey City, hoping to penetrate the phantom light.

Amid the commotion outside, in a certain inn's upstairs guest room in Grey City, there was temporarily a calm.

Luosen helped Feili Qisi up, smiling narrowly, and said: "Great one, this set of clothes is yours."

Feili Qisi gave Luosen a vicious glare: "Wait, you will eventually pay a horrible price for today's actions."

"Then I'll wait for you to come take revenge on me~~"

Since we are already mortal enemies destined to fight to the death, he, having many lice and not feeling itchy, seeing the opponent regain vigor, reached again into her thin clothing and, before her anger erupted, hastily added: "My godhood hasn't fully condensed; changing it incurs no cost."

In other words, the oath of godhood binds him little now; he can renege at any time.

Feili Qisi startled, to avoid wasting previous effort, she took a deep breath and forcibly pressed back the rage surging to the volcanic crater: "Have you had enough? If not, continue; I don't mind delaying a bit longer."

Luosen chuckled: "Of course not enough; I still have many punishments to unleash. Since you've recovered, why not try my tortures properly again?"

Feili Qisi gritted her teeth staring at Luosen; Luosen returned her gaze without fear, a bachelor's face saying: "No matter the future, for now I have won, and I must win enough to break even. Even if I later lose to you, I will have no regrets."

Since they are already irreconcilable enemies, let's just enjoy today's drink and joy; even if tomorrow brings a flood, it has nothing to do with him today.

"You you are truly a wanderer!"

Although she said that, Feili Qisi ultimately did not want to give up halfway and chose to submit.

"What do I need to do?"

Luosen sat on the chair: "My gun is dull, needs sharpening. Don't use the whetstone below; use the one above—I know you won't accept it, but I like seeing you reluctant yet unable to refuse me, hahaha."

Although she hated it to the point of gritting her teeth, in the end Feili Qisi still did it.

During this time, Luosen also secretly contacted Beilu Dandi: "Send those two lucky unlucky bastards back to the Dragon Mountain Brotherhood for them to handle."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Beilu Dandi responded and asked: "You defeated the Annihilation Goddess?"

"Strictly speaking, I defeated the mortal incarnation of the Annihilation Goddess—just a tiny victory, nothing to boast about."

"I seemed to hear that goddess's plea for mercy just now; have you subdued her?"

When the phantom light appeared, she could see nothing, but being near Luosen with good hearing, she heard the commotion in the inn.

"Not fully subdued; I merely took advantage of her weakened state to press the attack."

"From a certain perspective, the goddess of another world isn't much stronger than me."

Beilu Dandi's tone was full of disbelief.

Luosen chuckled inwardly, raised a hand to stroke Feili Qisi's head, corrected her position, then smiled and asked: "My dear follower, do you want to ignite the divine fire?"

Beilu Dandi was obviously startled, took a moment to recover: "Your Majesty, may I?"

"I say you can, then you can."

"Of course, this isn't all beneficial; there are many risks."

"One is the risk of entering the Solar Law Ring; two is the risk of facing invading gods from another world."

Beilu Dandi said without hesitation: "As long as I can be with Your Majesty, I fear no risk."

"Good. Then strive in cultivation; when your power reaches twenty rings, I will grant you a fire seed."

Establishing a divine system, and even a divine kingdom, is what Luosen has been thinking about, after all he is about to face a completely unknown world.

Relying on him alone to face it, the risk is extremely high; a single mistake could cost his life.

But if he could gather a group, form a team, jointly enter the Solar Law Ring, support each other, then the risk could be greatly reduced.

Beilu Dandi is quite a suitable candidate.

Because she possesses outstanding military talent, Luosen intends for her to condense the godhood of a battlefield commander, so as to become a future general of the divine kingdom.

Besides that, all functions of a state—such as arcane arts, medicine, education, production, transportation, etc. —also require a true god to preside over.

These true gods both help him manage and develop the future divine kingdom and gather the source substance from mortal believers of the same field.

As for himself, naturally he would become the Lord of Gods, or a God Emperor, coordinating and directing the work of the lesser gods from the center, to establish within the Solar Law Ring a self-sufficient, glorious divine kingdom.

Beilu Dandi received Luosen's promise and immediately became full of vigor.

With her spirit resilience far beyond ordinary people, she could hardly contain herself and responded excitedly.

"Your Majesty, I will certainly not disappoint you." After arranging Beilu Dandi, Luosen again lowered his head to lightly stroke Feili Qisi's thick hair, smiling and said: "Great one, your movements are quite unskilled; is this your first time pleasing someone?"

Feili Qisi glared angrily at Luosen, but forced by circumstances, she still tried her best to improve.

Thereafter, Luosen continually varied his ways of tormenting the incarnation of the supreme god of another world, until he had tried every method, only then feeling satisfied.

"Great one, thank you very much for your service. You may leave; I hope we never have a chance to meet again."

Feili Qisi looked at Luosen lazily reclining on the large bed and said word by word: "Rest assured, we will definitely meet again in the future; I hope that by then you can still maintain your present optimistic attitude."

Having said that, without waiting for Luosen's response, she stepped forward and her body vanished into the air.

After she left, Luosen lazily stretched, turned his head to look out the window, and found that the effect of "Obscured Light" had almost completely dissipated.

He still didn't move, merely raised his hand and lightly snapped his fingers, using a cleansing technique.

In the magical radiance, the somewhat messy room instantly became neat and tidy; some old furniture surfaces were plated with a thin layer of crystal light, and their appearance also changed.

About half a minute later, an ordinary inn's VIP suite actually displayed an exquisite and splendid beauty.

Luosen also didn't get up, continuing to recline on the large round bed.

One side patiently awaiting the incoming guests, the other side he condensed the "Encyclopedia of the Divine Realm" into existence, holding it in one hand before him and began to flip through page by page.

The book says, the power of the Solar Law Ring is extremely violent, the closer to the sun the more violent, able to easily destroy mortal souls; only a true god's soul can exist stably.

The book also says, the surface of the sun is almost entirely a high-temperature destruction zone unapproachable, with no flat, safe ground to serve as support.

Therefore, to live comfortably within the Solar Law Ring, one must use spacetime magic to construct within it a 'divine kingdom' exclusive to true gods.

A divine kingdom is not necessary, but a god without a divine kingdom must constantly evade erupting solar fire and contend with terrifying solar beasts, while also lacking the ability to protect the souls of their followers.

It's like a traveler in the mortal world—free, yet without a home to rest and recuperate.

When in good condition, everything is naturally fine; but if one encounters danger and gets injured carelessly, they become as forlorn as a stray dog, possibly even falling.

"A divine kingdom?"

Luosen carefully read the book's description of the divine kingdom and quickly understood its essence.

"A demiplane powered by a solar law ring."

"The technique to create a demiplane isn't that hard; the Dawn Empire knows it, the Eternal Empire surely does as well—the problem is I don't yet."

The bad news is, besides the divine fire, he now has another new problem.

The good news is, Tilalin knows the relevant technique, and soon someone will proactively bring the corresponding spell knowledge to his door, with a mastery level even higher than Tilalin's.

How did Luosen know that, then?

This brings up his incredibly strengthened time talent—he has already seen the impending situation from the time phantasm.

After waiting over an hour, Luosen was engrossed in his reading when the room door was knocked.

"Tap tap tap~~ tap tap tap~~"

The sound was neither light nor heavy, very regular, but Luosen sensed a hint of unease within it.

Luosen kept his eyes on the page and casually replied, "Esteemed guests have arrived, welcome, please come right in."

While speaking, he silently invoked a small-scale Veiled Radiance technique, enveloping the guest chamber alone and blocking all external scrutiny.

"Click~"

The door was pushed open.

A tall figure walked in.

She wore utterly ordinary attire; at first glance she resembled any common housewife in Grey City, but a closer look revealed a natural elegance radiating from her.

Her most striking feature was not her slightly bashful gorgeous face, nor her flawless jade-like skin, but a pair of enormous breasts that seemed capable of nourishing an entire empire.

"Click~ click~ click~"

She closed the door, walked into the room at an unhurried pace, her body trembling with each step, almost making Luosen's heart quiver as well.

Luosen couldn't help but think, "What a stunning beauty!"

Compared to Feiliqisi, she was her equal, each having their own merits.

On the other side, the woman's crystal-blue eyes carefully scrutinized Luosen, who was lounging on the bed reading.

"Great Luosen Majesty, I feel you are being somewhat rude."

Luosen lightly pinched the book in his hand, and the Encyclopedia of the Divine Realm dissolved into myriad points of light; he then withdrew his hand, folded both hands behind his head, and casually crossed his legs, his right calf swaying gently.

"Aigedelin Majesty, this is a private setting—you might relax a bit, after all, if the heartstrings are wound too tight, they can snap."
