The villains are redeemed, and the heroines cry and beg for forgiveness.

This handkerchief is a very cheap industrial product, and Gu Ran has always used it as a disposable tissue.

Lilith instinctively took the handkerchief, then her hand paused, and her expression froze:

"Is my face dirty right now?"

Gu Ran nodded.

Bang!

Black, endless flames immediately ignited on Lilith's body.

In an instant, all the dust on her body was burned away by the endless fire.

However, the handkerchief that Gu Ran handed her was unaffected and remained intact.

"You should look at yourself now; you're the slovenliest one here."

Lilith gave a cold snort.

Gu Ran shrugged. He knew he must look rather pathetic, after all, he had been thrown into such a big "pit".

However, he didn't care about his appearance. He was just joking with Lilith to ease her tension.

Who knew that Lilith, a succubus general, would be so unable to take a joke?

But it doesn't matter, if he can't take a joke, he can't take a joke, anyway, he and she aren't really that close.

Gu Ran turned and walked towards the "paralyzed" "Temple Mech".

Now he wants to check the results of his battle.

He was quite interested in this enormous creature, whose structure was remarkably similar to that of a mecha.

What interests him even more is the secret of the "Lord Sovereign".

Boom boom boom.

The "Temple Mech" began to transform once again, but this time it changed from a mech shape back to a palace shape.

"Comatose?"

Gu Ran's telekinetic senses allowed him to perceive the "Overlord" inside the "Temple Mech".

At this moment, she collapsed at the core, her eyes closed, her body curled up, like an ordinary girl fast asleep, her beauty tinged with a heart-wrenching tenderness.

The core of the "Temple Mech" after its transformation is part of the main hall of the "Central Temple".

At this moment, Gu Ran saw that Lilith had caught up and was walking beside him.

She maintained a cold expression, as if nothing had happened.

Gu Ran didn't seem to want to avoid her, so she just followed along.

Upon seeing the unconscious "Lord Sovereign" curled up in a coma, Lilith immediately gripped her spear, and black flames surged around her.

"Victory is finally achieved..."

With a sigh of relief, she stepped forward, intending to stab the "Lord Sovereign" into her body with her spear and end her life.

Just then, the "Lord Sovereign," who had been unconscious, seemed to have just woken up. He rubbed his eyes, yawned, and looked at Gu Ran and Lilith with hazy eyes.

319. The powerful figures were shocked; the "Abyss Ruler" actually called Gu Ran "Dad." (4k)

Gu Ran stopped Lilith.

"You want to stop me from killing Him? Why?"

Lilith's gaze fell on Gu Ran, filled with confusion and even a hint of grievance.

For her, the "Lord of the Abyss" has always been an insurmountable mountain in her heart, making it hard for her to breathe.

If she kills Him, she will be able to completely break free from her past state of being bound and have true freedom.

But surprisingly, she was stopped from killing Him!?

If Gu Ran isn't on her side, why is he stopping her?!

“Look, He is not the same as before,” Gu Ran said in a deep voice.

He had been paying close attention to the "Lord Sovereign's" state. From the very beginning, he noticed that the "Lord Sovereign's" temperament had completely changed, as if he had become a different person.

Lilith looked at the "Lord Sovereign" on the ground with a scrutinizing gaze.

The silver-haired, silver-eyed "Lord Ruler" was originally very petite, looking like a tiny loli, but she had a very imposing presence.

That disdainful gaze and arrogant posture came naturally, without a trace of affectation.

However, the first impression of this "Lord Sovereign" is that he is cute and cuddly.

Yes, cute and cuddly.

Whether it's the expression on her face or the way she rubs her eyes, she exudes the cuteness of a soft and adorable little girl.

Although the contrast is quite stark and seems unbelievable, that's just how it is...

Lilith's voice also carried a hint of disbelief: "He...He really changed? Why? Is it all a pretense? What kind of conspiracy is He plotting?"

This sense of awe was truly unimaginable for Lilith.

Before this, the pressure and fear she felt from "Lord Sovereign" were just as profound, and now the shock she felt was so intense that even her tone carried a hint of fear.

Gu Ran pondered for a moment, then squatted down and looked at "Lord Sovereign":

"Do you still remember who you are?"

"The Lord" seemed to be fully awake, no longer yawning. Her eyes were big and round, clear and bright, and her skin was so smooth and delicate, like a freshly peeled boiled egg.

She was like a delicate porcelain doll, or a white sprite that had just awakened from the snow.

"Your Majesty" looked at Gu Ran with curiosity, her eyes first flashing with doubt, then suddenly turning into surprise.

Finally, as if she had confirmed it, she happily called out, "Daddy!"

The sound was clear and melodious, like the song of a nightingale in the forest.

But the scene fell silent for a moment.

Lilith looked at Gu Ran in shock.

"What did He just call you...?"

Gu Ran was also somewhat surprised, and at the same time a little embarrassed.

How is this going?

How come he has an extra daughter?

Did I mishear?

"father!"

She called out "Your Majesty" again, and happily opened her arms to embrace Gu Ran.

"Gu Ran, watch out!"

Although the "Lord of the Overlord" seemed to have become "gentler," it was impossible to be sure if this was a disguise, so Lilith remained vigilant towards Him.

When she saw the "Lord Sovereign's" actions, her first reaction was that He was about to carry out a conspiracy, so she immediately reminded Gu Ran and prepared to release the Endless Fire.

"It's alright, relax." Gu Ran didn't react so strongly because he didn't feel any sense of crisis from the current "Lord Sovereign." Instead, he felt a strange sense of closeness.

However, Gu Ran did not let "Lord Sovereign" hug him. He used his right index finger to press against "Lord Sovereign's" forehead to stop her from moving forward.

"Now, let's play a game. I'll ask, and you answer. If you answer well, I'll give you... cough, a hug."

Even though he had lived two lives, Gu Ran had no experience raising children. He could only rely on his imagination and indirect experience from various works he had read to try and be a stay-at-home dad.

However, the premise is that the "Lord Sovereign" in front of him has really turned into a "child", so he must first ask to see if he can figure out His situation.

......

Outside the light screen.

The scene was completely silent.

The powerful figures could not help but remain silent.

They were all shocked and horrified when they saw "Lord Sovereign" call Gu Ran "Dad".

This was beyond everyone's expectations.

They originally thought that even if Gu Ran didn't defeat the "Abyss Overlord," he should at least have severely injured Him.

Otherwise, how could Gu Ran have returned to the human world alive?

But what they never expected was that Gu Ran had indeed defeated and severely injured the "Abyss Overlord" to some extent—they were even calling Gu Ran "Dad," which was already a severe blow to their spirits.

But this wasn't the devastating blow they wanted. What they wanted was for Gu Ran to forge an eternal feud with the "Lord of the Abyss."

Ideally, the fighting would continue indefinitely, which would eliminate a major threat to humanity if they killed Gu Ran. If Gu Ran killed the "Abyss Overlord," that would be the best outcome, as humanity would also be spared a major threat.

But given the current situation... how come "Abyss Overlord" and Gu Ran seem to be turning from enemies to friends?

No, that's even worse; it's "recognizing a thief as one's father"!

If the "Abyss Overlord" truly becomes Gu Ran's ally and is subdued by him, then killing Gu Ran now will inevitably lead to the "Abyss Overlord's" revenge in the future.
