Chapter 2384: The Shock of Orario's Gods — A Mortal Who Slain a Deity, and the Battle Against a God!

"... This is bad."

Apollo's face turned extremely ugly. If only Loki had appeared at the scene alone, he would still have room to make amends.

But now... nearly all the core members of Loki's Familia were present, and on top of that, there was Thor Odinson, a deity suspected to come from another world... once a fight broke out, it was almost certain to blow up.

Even if he barely bluffed his way through with sophistry for now, if his scheme were exposed,

the gods of Orario would surely grow wary of him in the future.

Trying to strike again would be countless times harder.

"Sun God Apollo."

Luo Cuilian's words carried arrogance. She stared at Apollo with the gaze one uses to look at prey. "I once killed the Apollo of my world! I wonder whether your abilities are the same as his, or if... it's only a difference in intensity."

"The God-Slaying King... the Sect Master of Luo Hao Sect, is it?"

Although Apollo's heart was shaken to the extreme, he still forcibly suppressed this emotion and spoke calmly. "Seeing you walking together with Loki and Thor,

truly makes one feel how strange fate is."

"By the way... could you all pretend you didn't see what happened today? In the future, I will surely reward you handsomely."

"... And then watch you swallow the Flat-Chested Monster?"

Loki's voice was ice-cold.

Although she usually met Hestia and they would inevitably bicker, the two of them were still on decent terms.

Knowing that Apollo wanted to devour Hestia, how could she possibly maintain any pleasant attitude! "Waaah! Flat-Chested Monster, I never expected it! You're actually this good to me.

The moment you knew I was in danger, you immediately

rushed over to save me!"

Hestia was deeply moved. "From now on, I definitely won't call you Flat-Chested Monster anymore."

Loki: "..."

"Shut your mouth!"

Loki declared she could no longer stand it.

She even had the urge to turn around and leave with every member of Loki's Familia.

Su Han watched the scene before him with great interest, and casually opened the Guild livestream.

And at that very instant, Luo Cuilian made her move.

Boom—a resonant hum, the void shattered.

Apollo was kicked into the heavens by Luo Cuilian.

Blazing, dazzling radiance erupted from above the firmament.

Just as if a second sun had risen, Sun God Apollo unleashed his divine power.

The temperature of the land bathed in the sun's brilliance shot straight up.

Orario fell into a brief deathly silence, then erupted into an uproar.

Voices of disbelief came from everywhere.

"... This feeling is the Sun God's power. Which pantheon's Sun God is this?"

One after another, the upper gods furrowed their brows, scanning the firmament—some shocked, some thoughtful, some in disbelief.

The upper gods, gathered in twos and threes, discussed in low voices.

"Apollo! It must be Apollo.

I've clashed with him before! This blazing, domineering divine power is exactly the same as the Apollo power I sensed back then."

"Has he gone mad... to actually use divine power in the mortal world! No, wait..."

A certain upper god suddenly realized. "Why is he able to wield divine power? According to the pact we agreed upon in the Upper Realm! Shouldn't he have been sent straight back to the Upper Realm by the binding covenant we set?"

"..."

Almost all the upper gods sensed something was wrong.

Yet the battle above continued.

Luo Cuilian's expression was calm. She deployed the Heavenly Emperor's Domain, and the entire firmament became her territory in that instant.

She surged forward, bearing an overwhelming momentum that crushed everything in its path.

Even though Sun God Apollo unleashed his full divine power, blazing like a great sun,

his radiance was still suppressed by Luo Cuilian.

A single, casual punch from Luo Cuilian carried a flavor of returning to simplicity and truth. It pierced through the void, and half of Apollo's body, along with that stretch of empty space, vanished in a single strike.

"... As expected,"

Loki's eyes remained narrowed as she gazed up at the sky. She nodded thoughtfully. "That fellow Apollo... never inherited much... combat awareness..."

"Perhaps the energy level within him isn't much weaker than Luo Cuilian's... but their combat awareness is on completely different levels."

Ais: "!!!!"

Ais stared blankly at the battle in the heavens, then glanced at Loki.

Her expression was strange to the extreme.

After a moment's hesitation, Ais said softly, "my lord, could you tell me what's actually going on with this battle in the heavens?"

It wasn't just Ais—everyone else present was also very curious about the situation above.

They just didn't dare to ask.
