Storm of Gods

Chapter 225 Mustard Seed of Mima
Under normal circumstances, Didia would certainly refuse. This treasure was obtained by his family by chance and was indeed very convenient. However, he recognized the token. It was Prince Aklis's token, bestowed by the king. Its authority was second only to the royal decree. In other words, His Highness was not joking, but wanted to thoroughly investigate the case of the internal organ demon. The person holding this token was the one in charge of this matter. If it was completed, the family's shame would be completely washed away!
Didia hesitated for only a few seconds before nodding, "Okay!"

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeve and took out a dark gold bracelet engraved with intricate runes.

"Didia, you're very confident. You only managed a draw with Simmons, and you still want to beat Li Xin? Don't try to renege on your bet later," Celia laughed.

Didia looked at Li Xin, then glanced at Celia. "You don't need to provoke me. A bet is a bet, Li Xin. If I win, you'll have to take care of His Highness the Prince."

“No problem!” Li Xin stared at the convenient bracelet, just like when he first saw Christy’s white skin, his eyes practically glued to it.

"Good, that's great!" Didiah roared. "Simmons, you just watch!"

boom……

Didia unleashed the Eye of the Nether, a torrent of violent psionic energy pouring from his body, accompanied by bursts of lightning. With his silver spear in hand, Didia seemed like a completely different person. Simmons and Celia were both stunned; they knew Didia hadn't used his full strength, but this was still…

Simmons' smile faded. He had been too arrogant lately. Haddia was so strong that his divine relic must have reached the peak of the second life star, a step ahead of him.

Didia not only wanted to defeat Li Xin to gain dominance, but also to tell Simmons that he was far from being good enough, after all, he was still young. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. However, when he looked at Li Xin, this man... didn't react at all. He didn't even take his weapon. He just stood there casually, not taking him seriously at all. These past few days, just because of a draw, it seemed that the former Lei Jue had suddenly become a piece of trash. With all his anger focused, Didia drew his silver spear.

bass……

Within the Eye of the Secret, the Crimson Eye primarily enhances abilities, the Pale Eye primarily conceals secret abilities, and the Netherworld Eye primarily grants abilities such as lightning and fire, while also providing benefits from the Release system.

With a thunderous roar, a bolt of lightning struck down, and at the same time, Didia's silver spear was already upon him. The frenzied spear points instantly enveloped Li Xin, but Li Xin dodged the lightning strikes, his figure swaying amidst the silver light. At this moment, Celia couldn't even discern the frequency of Didia's attacks, only seeing a sky full of spear shadows, while Li Xin seemed like a ghost without a physical form. Simmons, standing to the side, watched intently. He knew how much enlightenment such a battle between masters would bring him. He knew Li Xin was strong, but he had no concept of just how strong he was.

Didia's lightning spear was as fast as lightning and incredibly powerful. Without protective gear, a single hit would either kill or severely injure Li Xin. Yet, even such an attack did not put any pressure on Li Xin. In Didia's eyes, Li Xin was like someone strolling leisurely.

boom……

With a sweeping motion, Didiah swung his silver spear and delivered a flying kick that finally struck Li Xin. He then closed in, pulling back his silver spear and unleashing a series of blows towards Li Xin's head. As Li Xin retreated, he was hit by Didiah again, his body flying through the air. Didiah then burst forward, arriving in front of Li Xin and delivering a powerful kick to block the blow.

Whoosh... Li Xin's body plummeted to the ground. Didia, hovering and crackling with lightning, had already attacked. However, as soon as Li Xin landed, he slid along the ground to create distance. Didia, who was still moving, also made an amazing zigzag pursuit. The deadly silver spear in his hand struck like a venomous snake locking onto its prey. The two figures rose and fell, and in Celidia's eyes, they were just constantly jumping dots of light.

"Simmons, what's going on? Brother Li isn't doing so well, he keeps getting beaten up. If that kid Didia really wins, won't we become his subordinates?" Sedilia gritted her little tiger teeth. "Should I mess with him?"

Simmons got down and said, "Don't mess things up. Brother Li won't lose; he hasn't even made a move yet."

"If he doesn't come out soon, he'll die!"

Boom... Snap! Li Xin was caught and kicked away again, but Didia did not pursue. The two landed almost simultaneously. Didia swept his silver spear and stood tall. "Li Xin, this is a duel. Go all out, or don't blame me for breaking my promise!"

Suddenly, Li Xin vanished into thin air, poking Didiah's head with a finger. "You lost."

Boom! The psionic energy exploded, and thousands of bolts of lightning swept away everything. Simmons and Celia retreated hastily. With a sweep of his spear, a bolt of lightning struck Li Xin. This time, Didia was truly enraged. His whole body was enveloped in lightning power, and his strength continued to increase. The other party had actually mocked him.

"kill!"

Chivalry – Thunderous and Mighty!
Man and spear as one, they charged towards Li Xin. The silver spear flashed out, followed by a torrent of spiritual energy, unleashing a pillar of lightning. Li Xin dodged with lightning speed, but Didia's silver spear was already upon him, even faster than before. Under Li Xin's pressure, Didia further enhanced himself, swish, swish, swish…

Celia couldn't see the movements clearly, while Simmons' eyes widened in disbelief. "What the hell is this...?"

Didia was going crazy during the battle, as his opponent blocked his thunderous attack with just one finger!
bass……

Didiah's figure vanished abruptly, a divine flash—a convergence of lightning!
"Got you!"

A beam of lightning, drawn close to Didia's face, hurtled towards him. But Li Xin suddenly vanished, reappearing abruptly right in front of Didia, face to face. Before Didia could react, Li Xin vanished again, appearing behind him with ghostly speed. Didia sensed it and whirled around, but Li Xin's fist was already crashing down. *Boom!*

Didia's heart suddenly stopped beating, an overwhelming feeling of suffocation enveloped his entire body, and he was completely unable to move. For the first time, he tasted the flavor of death.

bang~
Li Xin flicked Didia's forehead lightly. The next second, Didia was launched into the air and hung on the wall like a cannonball, his whole body embedded in the wall, his eyes white, motionless.

Upon seeing Li Xin's victory, Celia jumped up excitedly, "Long live Brother Li! Long live Brother Li! Simmons, you should learn from him, look at him, and then look at yourself!"

Simmons smiled wryly and quickly pulled Didia down. "Is this something I can learn?"

Didia had just suffered a heavy blow to the head and couldn't catch her breath, so she passed out. When Simmons woke her up, her head was still buzzing. Simmons took out a bottle of a commonly used psionic energy recovery potion, which would be useful when overdrawn, and gave it to Didia to drink.

Didiah gasped for breath, his whole body was soaked with sweat, as if he had just had a very long nightmare.

Looking at Simmons, he was momentarily stunned, "Who exactly is he...?"

Simmons smiled wryly, "I don't know either. When I first met him, my situation wasn't much better than yours."

To avoid Li Xin, they traveled overnight to leave Tianjing, not daring to stop for fear of being caught up by him. At that time, they were really scared. This man usually seemed harmless, but if they really provoked him, they would probably die without even knowing how.

Perhaps sensing Simmons' sincerity, Didia unexpectedly developed a bit of goodwill towards him.

"Are you alright?" Simmons asked. "I'm not as good as you."

Didia shook his head with a wry smile. "A draw is a draw. No matter the reason, Anthony was wrong, but I had no choice in the matter."

Simmons nodded and helped Didia to her feet. Didia rubbed her forehead, and Simmons was surprised that no bumps had appeared.

"He launched it from a distance, releasing the water of Ivory Bay." Didia shrugged helplessly, his body still a little numb. He finally understood why Li Xin could earn the prince's respect. Strength was only one aspect, but he could also gain the prince's trust, so he must be reliable as a person.

Li Xin was examining the bracelet. It was a great item, but after fiddling with it for a long time, he still couldn't use it. Didia came over and said, "I need to erase your own psionic imprint first, and then you can input your own."

Li Xin handed over the bracelet. Didia was a straightforward person. This flick on the forehead cleared away all his recent frustrations and resentment. He felt quite comfortable instead of feeling depressed. He happily erased his psionic mark. He usually used this to store his silver spear, but it didn't really matter if he didn't use it.

Li Xin was overjoyed. After being on the Dao Yuan Continent for so long, he had finally found something good. He filled the bracelet with his spiritual energy and sure enough, he felt a space of more than three meters in length. He happily threw his bag and the prince's token into it and felt comfortable all over. He would never have to worry about losing anything again.

“I accept defeat wholeheartedly. From now on, you will lead the investigation,” Didia said. “Let’s go to the undertaker’s place.”

Didiah was very concerned about this case. It was unbelievable that a killer like the Visceral Demon could still be at large. He had to be eliminated.

"How about we take a break today?" Li Xin suggested.

“There’s absolutely no need for that. What kind of knight can’t even handle this little injury?” Didiah refused decisively.

Seeing Didia's dedication, Li Xin could only admire him. He had originally wanted to delay, but it seemed inappropriate to slack off after receiving such good things, so he could only agree. There was a carriage for them at the door, but Didia refused to share a carriage with the three of them. The two carriages headed towards the Funeral Home in the Holy Ze District.

As soon as Didia got into the carriage, he slumped against the side, grimacing and gagging. It was the first time he had ever felt so physically vulnerable. What the hell was this monster?

It took him a while to recover, and then he became extremely excited. It was truly an eye-opener. Although he hadn't been to the Secret Castle, he had trained at the Sea Abyss Monastery, one of the nine great monasteries. He wasn't someone who hadn't seen the world, but this was still too unbelievable.

Could it be?

Is this also one of the reasons why His Highness allowed her to get close to him?
