âCrystal skull!â Wang Teng was stunned upon seeing the crystal object in her hand. âWhy is it here?â
This crystal skull should be lying in the museum. Why was it here?
âL personally went to get it.â Alais looked at Wang Teng and gave him a meaningful smile. âYou should be very interested in it.â
Wang Tengâs heart pounded. Did she discover something?
That was impossible. He was confident in his concealing skills. He wouldnât be discovered.
âWhat are you saying? I donât understand.â Wang Teng laughed awkwardly.
âReally? I wanted to give it to you, but since youâre not interested, forget it.â Alais gestured to keep the crystal skull.
âWang Teng was stunned, the corners of his lips twitching a little. She had brought the crystal skull over to give it to him!
Seriously?
Although doubtful, he still stopped her. He chuckled and said, âIt doesnât matter if I was interested in it in the past. I can have an interest in it now.
â| feel an affinity with this crystal skullâ¦â
Alais looked at him with a strange gaze. She was wondering how thick his skin was.
âTm serious. Ever since I saw this crystal skull, I felt a connection with it. You have to believe me. Iâm an honest guy. Iâd never lie, especially to beautiful ladies,â Wang Teng said sincerely without any change in his expression.
âYouâre⦠a special guy!â Alais expressed her contempt towards Wang Teng tactfully.
Then, she passed the crystal skull to him.
âWang Teng wanted to continue his speech, but Alais just passed him the crystal skull without much ado. Stunned, he took it over absentmindedly.
He found it a little unbelievable when he felt it on his palm.
Did she just give it to him so easily?
âLaw a scene in Mount Saintâs prophecy. This crystal skull might be useful to you,â Alais said.
âProphecy?â Wang Teng was surprised.
Alais glanced at him silently.
âWang Teng understood her meaning.
Donât ask. Even if you do, I wonât say anything.
He felt frustrated and speechless. Couldnât these saints finish their sentence? Did they think that this was a riddle game?
But since she had given him the crystal skull, he would take it.
Honestly, it was quite useful to Wang Teng. Even without the star chart, the ability to nourish his spirit was enough to attract him.
He was thinking of a method to steal it, but now, he didnât have to waste his brain cells. He could take it away openly. No one wanted to be a thief. After all, it would be awkward if he was found out.
âTm leaving if you have nothing else for me. We need to return to our country.â Wang Teng kept the crystal skull quickly. He was afraid she would regret it and ask him to return the skull.
âWait, thereâs still one thing left,â Alais said.
âWhat is it?â Wang Teng was surprised.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
âCome in,â Alais gave her reply, and the door of the hall was opened. Great Sage Fara, Suang, Sharjah, and many others walked in one after another.
Two familiar people stood in front of them.
Frose!
Alif!
âWang Teng squinted.
They were still alive!
They must be quite lucky to have survived the tragic battle. But no matter how fortunate they were, they had used up all their luck.
The two of them looked dejected and miserable, their bodies riddled with injuries. They were pushed over by Suang and Sharjah.
âKneel!â Suang ordered coldly and kicked them to the ground.
Then, he bowed to Alais and said, âYour Highness, they are here.â
âYes.â Alais nodded. She looked at Alif and Frose calmly without any emotions in her eyes. Her expression sent a chill down their hearts.
âTl leave these two in your hands,â Alais said to Wang Teng.
âWhy?â Wang Teng asked indifferently. He wondered why Alais was sending these two to him.
Their position in the Holy Temple was quite high. Allowing other people to sentence them was a humiliation for the Holy Temple. No one would do something to trample their own reputation and dignity.
âThis is our answer to you,â Alais replied.
âWang Teng was shocked. Just an answer?
âWe hope that you can become the God of the Holy Temple,â Great Sage Fara opened his mouth and said.
âGod!â Wang Teng was startled. Then, he understood.
They were handing these two guys to pacify him so that they could bring up this matter.
However, he was puzzled. Why did these people want him to become the God of the Holy Temple?
Even Alif, Suang, and the other martial warriors were dumbfounded when they heard this piece of news.
God!
Holy Temple never had a God. They only had a Goddess.
Yet, the Goddess and Great Sage Fara wanted to make history and let this martial warrior from Country Xia be their God.
They were disregarding Mount Saintâs condemnation!
âAre you sure?â Wang Teng asked doubtfully.
âYou possess light Force and can control the holy flame. To us, youâre the best candidate for the God position,â Alais said.
âTm from Country Xia!â Wang Teng replied.
âI know.â Alais nodded. Then, she looked at him seriously and said, âBut youâre the only one who possesses light Force other than me.
âI think that this is the decree of the Goddess!â
âWang Teng was staggered.
To hell with the Goddessâs decree. It would be more appropriate to call it the systemâs decree.
Other people might not know how he got his light Force, but he did.
Should he agree to her proposal?
âWhat responsibility do I have to bear if I agree? What benefits will I get?â Wang Teng asked calmly as many thoughts flashed through his mind.
âIf Mount Saint is in danger, I hope that you can help.â Alais said, âOf course, we wonât force you. You can make your own decision.
âAs for what you can get⦠the God has the same status as me. What do you think you can get?â
âThis sounds too good to be true,â Wang Teng replied suspiciously.
âYou donât have to make any guarantee. Itâs only a verbal agreement. Thereâs nothing to worry about,â Alais replied.
Wang Teng thought for a moment and realized she was right.
He held the initiative in this deal. They couldnât do anything to him.
âSince youâre so sincere, I wonât reject the offer. Letâs be a God for fun. I can boast about it when I go back.â Wang Teng sniggered.
Silence.
Everyone was speechless.
What was this fellow thinking? How could he treat this holy matter as something to boast about?
The muscles on their faces trembled as they looked at Wang Teng with a complicated gaze.
Hello? This is a God!
