Chapter 141 Fire
The Blue Silver Kingdom, the royal palace's back garden.
Lin Ye remained lying in the chair, but at this moment, he suddenly glanced at the sky.
"They're here."
A slight smile played on his lips.
Qian Renxue paused slightly as she massaged his shoulders.
Who's here?
"It's a gift."
Lin Ye sat up straight and patted off non-existent dust from the hem of his clothes.
"Since they are guests, we can't be too impolite."
"Xue'er, go and get out that jar of Da Hong Pao tea that I've been keeping."
"Ah Yin, let the children go back inside. This kind of scene is not suitable for children."
"Na'er, put your gun away. Don't be so menacing. You might scare the children."
Gu Yuena pouted. Although somewhat unwilling, she still flipped her hand and retrieved the silver dragon spear, which was powerful enough to pierce the sky, back into her body.
The moment the forestry worker finished speaking.
Two soft beams of light slowly descended from the sky.
A vibrant green, like jade, brimming with life.
A dish as white as mutton fat, radiating warmth and kindness.
There was no grand spectacle of a deity descending to earth, nor any divine light filling the sky.
Two beams of light landed and transformed into two stunningly beautiful women.
The woman on the left, dressed in a long emerald green dress, has a dignified and beautiful appearance, giving people a feeling of warmth and comfort; she is none other than the Goddess of Life.
The one on the right, dressed in pure white, exudes a gentle and serene aura, with clear and bright eyes; she is the god of kindness.
The moment the two landed, their expressions changed slightly.
Because they could clearly feel that the air in this back garden was even thicker than that in the divine realm.
Every flower and plant here, even the most ordinary wildflower, contains a spiritual energy comparable to that of celestial herbs from the divine realm.
Especially the black-haired youth sitting at the stone table.
He sat there casually, without any divine power emanating from him, just like an ordinary wealthy man.
But in the perception of these two god-kings, that location seemed to be the center of the universe, the origin and end of all laws.
Just one glance at it would cause a sharp pain to one's soul.
"Divine Realm Committee, Life."
"Kind."
"Greetings, Your Majesty, Forestry Minister."
The two goddesses bowed slightly, performing a gesture that would be considered an equal in this world, but was seen as extremely humble in the divine realm.
This address of "Your Majesty" was a complete acknowledgment of the status of forestry.
Lin Ye did not get up.
He simply pointed to the stone bench opposite him.
"sit."
"The tea is freshly brewed, have a taste."
The goddess of life and the god of kindness exchanged a glance, both seeing the unease in each other's eyes.
They sat down as instructed.
At this moment, Qian Renxue walked over with a tea tray. She was dressed in a golden palace gown. Although her divine status was not as high as the two god-kings, her innate royal air was in no way inferior.
"Please, gentlemen."
Qian Renxue placed two cups of tea in front of them, her expression neither humble nor arrogant.
The goddess of life picked up her teacup and took a small sip.
As soon as the tea entered her mouth, a warm current instantly flowed through her body, even nourishing her soul, which had been damaged by the previous battle.
"Good tea."
The goddess of life exclaimed in heartfelt praise.
"The tea is good, but I wonder if the person drinking it has enough money for it."
Lin Ye leaned back in his chair, looking at the two with a half-smile.
The gaze wasn't sharp, yet it made the two god-kings feel immense pressure.
The God of Kindness set down his teacup, took a deep breath, and spoke:
"Your Majesty, we have come on behalf of the Divine Realm Committee to apologize to you."
"What happened before was due to the recklessness of the Asura God."
"The God Realm is willing to acknowledge your absolute dominion over Douluo Star."
"From now on, the enforcers of the God Realm will no longer interfere in any affairs of Douluo Star. Even if a Soul Master becomes a god, he will no longer be subject to the rules of the God Realm's guidance. It will all be up to Your Majesty to decide."
These words were spoken with utmost sincerity, and the attitude was extremely humble.
After listening, Lin Ye did not immediately express his opinion.
He simply ran his fingers lightly along the rim of the teacup, making a soft rubbing sound.
The sound was particularly jarring in the quiet garden.
Each sound seemed to pound on the hearts of the two goddesses.
A long time passed.
Lin Yecai slowly began to speak.
That's it?
Two words.
It's very simple.
But this made the hearts of the goddess of life and the god of kindness jump into their throats.
"Your Majesty, what you mean is..."
"The goddess of life asked cautiously."
Lin Ye stood up, walked to the garden fence, and casually plucked a bright red flower in full bloom.
"You have disturbed my enjoyment and frightened my child."
"You're trying to break the rules of my backyard."
"You think you can just let this go with an apology and an admission?"
Lin Ye turned around and casually tossed the red flower onto the stone table.
The petals scattered, resembling fresh blood.
"That old guy Shura didn't come because he's afraid of dying."
"You came because you thought I wouldn't kill a woman."
"But when I do business, I value fairness the most."
"Since you're here to apologize, you should at least show some sincerity."
Lin Ye's gaze fell on the green treasure box in the hands of the Goddess of Life.
"This thing must be the Seed of Life, right? The fruit of the Tree of Life in the God Realm only appears once every ten thousand years."
The goddess of life turned pale and instinctively gripped the treasure box tightly.
This was her trump card, originally intended as a bargaining chip, but Lin Ye saw through it at a glance.
"And that one too."
Lin Ye pointed to a jade hairpin in the hair of the God of Kindness.
"Primordial White Jade can calm the mind and nourish the soul, making it a perfect toy for my eldest daughter."
The Goddess of Kindness was also taken aback; that was her innate artifact!
"What? You can't bear to part with it?"
The smile on Lin Ye's face vanished instantly.
The surrounding air temperature dropped sharply.
A terrifying pressure descended from the sky, turning the once cloudless sky into pitch black, with countless dark golden lightning bolts rolling through the clouds.
That is divine wrath.
It is also the wrath of the God-King.
"I'm not discussing this with you."
The forestry department's voice became sinister.
"What I want, you have to give me, whether you like it or not..."
"Then I'll go to the realm of gods myself to get it."
"At that time, we'll get more than just these two things."
Thump.
Under this terrifying pressure, the Goddess of Life and the God of Kindness felt their knees buckle and their divine power completely stagnate, making it difficult for them to remain seated.
Gu Yuena stood aside, watching the two once high and mighty god-kings now trembling in fear, a hint of pleasure flashing in her eyes.
"Give it to him."
Gu Yuena spoke coldly.
"Compared to the survival of the divine realm, what is this little thing?"
The goddess of life gritted her teeth and finally made a decision.
She held the green treasure box in both hands and respectfully handed it to Lin Ye.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."
"This is the seed of life, which I offer to Your Majesty in order to... quell the war."
The God of Kindness also took a deep breath, and with trembling hands removed the Primordial White Jade Hairpin from her hair and placed it on the table.
