Chapter 805: The Fate of the Great Summer Deity
Hearing this question, Shaoping Ge’s lips curled into a faint smile as he looked at Lin Qiye, smiling but silent.
“Is that so?” Lin Qiye, somewhat puzzled by the meaning behind Shaoping Ge’s smile, couldn’t help but ask, “No way? Two years ago, Commander Ye personally told me that it would take at most half a year for the origin of the Daxia Heavenly Court to be fully restored. At that time, all the Daxia gods would return from reincarnation and would have the ability to leave the Daxia territory freely…
It’s been so long already; hasn’t the origin of the Heavenly Court been restored?”
Shaoping Ge shrugged with a smile, “Qiye, do you know how highly classified this matter is within the Night Watchers?”
Lin Qiye was taken aback.
“The situation of the Daxia gods is the highest secret of Daxia. The confidentiality level of this matter is extremely high. As one of the senior members of the Night Watchers, I know everything about it, but I do not have the authority to disclose this information to you…”
Lin Qiye finally understood his meaning. In summary, Shaoping Ge had conveyed a simple message: “You are not a senior member of the Night Watchers; this matter cannot be told to you.”
Given Lin Qiye’s current position as the captain of a special team, his information authority within the Night Watchers was already quite high. Yet, even so, he still did not have access to this confidential information…
But the more it was like this, the more curious Lin Qiye became.
Logically speaking, once the origin of the Heavenly Court was restored and the Daxia gods returned from reincarnation, it would undoubtedly be an event of immense significance, capable of changing the perception of the gods in Daxia and the understanding of the mist that had persisted for centuries…
Yet, strangely, the current Daxia, compared to more than two years ago, seemed to have made no breakthroughs in its worldview.
There was no magnificent Heavenly Court suspended in the sky, no mythical immortals riding clouds, and no fervent discussions about the Daxia gods. Daxia remained a realm dominated by humanity.
Could it be that the Daxia gods truly had not returned?
“Alright…” Lin Qiye sighed helplessly.
Shaoping Ge glanced at him, then calmly turned to look out at the moonlight outside the window. After a long while, he suddenly spoke up:
“However, I can give you a slight hint…”
Lin Qiye looked up in confusion.
“The Daxia gods are no longer in Daxia.”
After saying this, Shaoping Ge put on the coat draped over the back of his chair, gave a half-smile to the bewildered Lin Qiye, and walked straight to the office door, pushing it open to head into the courtyard.
In the brightly lit courtyard, the sounds of laughter and banter mixed with the aroma of various dishes flowed into the quiet office.
Lin Qiye seemed to have realized something, his eyes slowly brightening!
The Daxia gods were no longer in Daxia!
This simple statement contained too much information, such as… the origin of the Heavenly Court had indeed been restored.
Just as Ye Fan had said before, before the restoration of the origin of the Heavenly Court, the Daxia gods could not leave the territory of Daxia. Since Shaoping Ge said that the Daxia gods had already left Daxia, it meant they had a complete and intact origin of the Heavenly Court…
This also indicated that all the Daxia gods had returned from reincarnation!
Combining this with the current situation in Daxia, Lin Qiye could deduce many things.
The Daxia gods had clearly all returned, yet there had been no significant impact; at least in the eyes of ordinary people, there was no change in this world.
There could be two reasons for this situation.
First, the Daxia gods essentially did not want to interfere with the normal operation of human society, nor did they deliberately emphasize their existence. They were merely guarding Daxia silently, just as they had done over a hundred years ago, watching the flowers bloom and wither, and the clouds roll by…
Second, the Daxia gods did not want the news of their return to reach the ears of other divine nations.
Four years ago, Yang Jian’s sudden emergence had sounded the alarm for many divine nations shrouded in mist. They began to realize that the Daxia gods were gradually awakening from reincarnation with strong hostility and would pose a significant threat to their divine authority.
Thus, they started to attempt to unite with each other to form a unified front against Daxia.
Of course, at that stage, many divine nations were merely wary of Daxia, and there was still a long way to go before a true alliance could be formed… What truly accelerated their pace of unification was Zhou Ping’s ascension to godhood.
The deterrence of a human becoming a god, combined with the existence of the Daxia gods, caused the threat level of Daxia in the mist to rise sharply. After two years of fermentation and accumulation, this front had taken initial shape and was even prepared to launch a grand and sweeping divine war!
But why had they not attacked yet?
Because within Daxia, there was a variable, a variable akin to a doomsday nuclear weapon, hidden deep within Daxia.
The Daxia gods were that variable.
The divine nations in the mist were unaware of the situation regarding the Daxia gods.
How many gods had awakened from reincarnation in Daxia? What was their current combat power? Had they returned to the divine realm? If a full-scale divine war broke out, how terrifying would the damage caused by the Daxia gods be?
They did not know, nor did they dare to gamble…
It was like two opposing superpowers, where one side wanted to initiate war but was unsure whether the other country possessed nuclear weapons. If they did, how many nuclear weapons did they have? If war broke out, could they bear the cost?
This was the reason why a full-scale divine war had clearly been brewing yet had not been initiated, as well as the fundamental purpose behind the foreign gods continuously stirring up beast tides to test Daxia.
At the same time, this was also the reason why Zuo Qing was so eager to build war fortifications!
Only at this moment did Lin Qiye understand why Zuo Qing was so anxious to construct war fortifications, why he was willing to draw away the Night Watchers’ forces from their homeland to station people at these fortifications…
The Night Watchers were like a great hand desperately hiding the existence of the Daxia gods. Once the Night Watchers’ defenses were breached, the Daxia gods could no longer remain hidden, exposing the nation’s trump card to the foreign gods.
Losing their trump card, the moment a full-scale divine war erupted, Daxia would have already lost half the battle.
The Daxia gods had their responsibilities;
The people of Daxia also had their responsibilities.
In this era, in Daxia, humans and gods had turned their backs to each other, standing shoulder to shoulder at the pinnacle of a tumultuous world, ready to face the wolves and tigers from the mist.
Lin Qiye sat there in a daze, like a stone statue, motionless.
The information void caused by his disappearance over the past two years was completely filled by Shaoping Ge’s simple statement!
The doubts that had shrouded Lin Qiye’s heart were finally unveiled, and at this moment, the situation Daxia faced was clearly presented before him.
Lin Qiye turned his head to look at Shaoping Ge’s back as he sat down in the courtyard, his eyes filled with complexity…
