Chapter 1849
by 林方方Chapter 1849 Asking the Adoptive Father to Come Out of Retirement
Father… Adoptive father?
The Supreme God stared blankly at No. 22 who was frantically kowtowing, suddenly feeling like his worldview was collapsing.
First, he could confirm that they had never had any interaction with Vishnu, who was certainly not the Holy Master’s adoptive father… After all, when the Temple of Gods fought against the Celestial Court years ago, Vishnu was chased all the way to Antarctica by the Moral Heavenly Lord and disappeared without a trace.
At first, they all thought Vishnu was dead, but now it seemed that he had been hiding in the time labyrinth all along.
But… how could the mighty Holy Master of [Divine Desire Paradise] meet someone and immediately kowtow, calling him adoptive father?
While the Supreme God was bewildered, Vishnu, who had been as still as a stone statue, slowly opened his eyes.
He frowned at No. 22 who was frantically kowtowing before him, a trace of surprise appearing in his deep eyes. After a long pause, he finally spoke:
“Who… are you?”
“I am the Holy Master of [Divine Desire Paradise], the current God of Lust. My name is not important. As long as you’re willing, adoptive father, you can call me whatever you want,” No. 22 answered sincerely.
No. 22’s posture was beyond merely humble; he had nearly buried himself into the ground. Because of this, Vishnu didn’t sense any threat from these two people who suddenly appeared. Instead, he felt a bit curious.
“I am not your adoptive father,” Vishnu frowned and said solemnly, “I don’t know you at all.”
“Not knowing each other before doesn’t mean we can’t know each other now… Adoptive father, to be honest, I’ve admired you since you were at the Temple of Gods! Day and night, I’ve been hoping to follow in your footsteps!
I heard you might be recuperating in Antarctica, so I brought all the top fighters from [Divine Desire Paradise] to find you and ask you to return to the world!”
Supreme God: ???
The Supreme God looked blankly at No. 22, who spoke with such conviction, his thoughts becoming a complete mess.
Weren’t they here to find the remnants of the Gate of Truth? How did it turn into specifically seeking out Vishnu? Besides, didn’t you yourself not expect to encounter Vishnu here?
Hearing this, Vishnu’s frown deepened, and he spoke with suspicion.
“You… came specifically to find me?”
“Of course!” No. 22 answered decisively, “We searched the entire Antarctica but couldn’t find your whereabouts. We accidentally entered this place during a fight with enemies and discovered this hidden realm… I knew you must be recuperating here. So we searched painfully for days before finally finding you!”
“But why were you looking for me?”
“We came to ask you to return to the world!”
“Ask me to return?”
“Yes, adoptive father! If you’re willing, I can hand over the entire [Divine Desire Paradise] to you. I only ask for a chance to assist you in becoming the strongest in the world!
Then, the entire Earth will bow at your feet! You will be the only supreme being in this world!”
No. 22’s voice was incredibly firm as he looked directly into Vishnu’s eyes, his gaze filled with passion.
Supreme God: (??｀??Д
Vishnu, hearing this, shook his head.
“Become the only supreme being? Is it that simple? In the battle with the Great Xia Celestial Court years ago, the Temple of Gods was defeated. I was merely chased here to recuperate. If I leave, I will surely be hunted by the Great Xia Heavenly Lord again… Young man, you should leave.”
No. 22 smiled slightly, confidently saying: “Adoptive father, don’t you know? There is no Celestial Court in this world anymore!”
“What did you say?” Vishnu’s eyes narrowed. “How is that possible? Takamagahara, Sun City, Asgard, and the Temple of Gods fell one after another, leaving only the Great Xia Celestial Court as the most powerful. Who could destroy the Celestial Court?
Olympus certainly couldn’t… Could it be that the K-system gods have descended?”
After the battle between the Temple of Gods and the Celestial Court, Vishnu had hidden in the time labyrinth, naturally knowing nothing about the outside world. No. 22 calmly explained everything that had happened over the years, and Vishnu’s eyes immediately brightened!
Michael died in battle, Zeus passed away from illness, and the three Heavenly Lords of Great Xia took the entire Celestial Court into the depths of space… So, he was truly the only supreme god left in this world?
There was no one left in the world who could oppose him. If he wanted, he could easily destroy any obstacle and even take the entire Great Xia into his possession!
“Well? Adoptive father, do you still think I’m daydreaming?” No. 22 chuckled.
Vishnu’s gaze returned to No. 22. This time, he examined No. 22 carefully for a long while before nodding slightly:
“You’ve done well… In that case, I shall grant your wish.”
Vishnu’s figure slowly rose from the ice plain. Powerful divine might surged from his tall frame. As one of the supreme gods of the Temple of Gods, he had never felt so confident.
“Thank you, adoptive father!” No. 22 exclaimed joyfully and respectfully.
He paused for a moment before continuing, “By the way, adoptive father, to conquer Great Xia, there’s one person you must eliminate.”
“Who? Didn’t you say the Celestial Court gods have gone into hibernation?”
“The current Commander-in-Chief of the Night Watchers, Lin Qiye… He has inherited the Archangel’s divine ruins and become a Supreme God. He leads all of Great Xia’s top fighters. Once you kill him, Great Xia will be yours for the taking!”
Vishnu spoke disdainfully, “A human? Worthy to be my enemy?”
“You are a supreme god. He’s just a human, naturally unworthy… However, he’s currently in this labyrinth. Wouldn’t it be convenient for you to kill him?”
“Oh?” Vishnu seemed to guess something and glanced at No. 22. “You mean the enemy you were fighting is him?”
“It is.”
No. 22 answered honestly.
Without much hesitation, Vishnu nodded and said, “Fine. A mere human dares to bully my adoptive son. I’ll kill him for you… Where is he in this labyrinth?”
“To be honest, adoptive father, this labyrinth is too complex. We haven’t figured it out yet… We have even less idea where he is.”
“Hmph, these are just small tricks of time. What’s so complex?” Vishnu waved his hand. “Since he’s in this labyrinth, he’ll have to pass through the fragment in the deepest part to get out… I’ll take you there to wait for him.”
“Yes! Thank you, adoptive father!” No. 22 gave the Supreme God a look and respectfully followed behind Vishnu.
Only then did the Supreme God realize.
This… this wasn’t just finding an adoptive father!
This was practically bringing a powerful backer to [Divine Desire Paradise]!
With a supreme god’s protection, they could not only move freely in this time labyrinth but also kill Lin Qiye. Moreover, with a supreme god, [Divine Desire Paradise] would have the power to challenge Great Xia!
As expected of the Holy Master! With one kowtow, he had secured a bright future for [Divine Desire Paradise]!
At this moment, the Supreme God was completely in awe of No. 22.
