Master Changsheng

Chapter 386, page 383: Old acquaintance? Enemy?

As the true spirit of the [God of Radiance] spoke, Ankai gained a new understanding of Lei.

These are also some things that Lei himself has forgotten.

Lei's incomplete ten reincarnations resulted in severe memory loss.

There aren't many memories left in my mind. If I had to talk about memories with deities, the only one that stands out is the memory of the [God of Law].

It's unclear whether it's because he has a very good relationship with the "God of Law" or because he harbors too much resentment towards the "God of Law".

Fortunately, he encountered the [God of Radiance] who knew Lei, which gave Ankai a new understanding of Lei's past experiences.

After listening to the God of Radiance's explanation, Ankai prepared to give Lei a new job.

A job where you can reunite with old friends.

"Ray should like it, right?"

According to the true spirit of the [God of Radiance].

Lei is no simple guy.

Although Lei is not well-known among the gods as a whole.

But that's because Lei is active in the ranks of the [Supreme Gods].

For example, the God of Light!

The God of Radiance, despite being a fifth-rank deity, was able to hear of Thunder's reputation because the God of Light mentioned it by chance.

It was that time that made the God of Radiance remember the mysterious creature "Thunder".

Lei, one of the founders of the Divine Court.

In its early years, it was active among the "superior deities," that is, the "first, second, and third-class deities."

Later, due to Lei's close friends, Lei officially entered the sight of the [Supreme God].

To become a non-divine being who could communicate with the Supreme God, Lei's status in the eyes of the higher-ups was much higher than that of the Divine Court God.

In addition, Lei was remembered because of a henchman with an unusual appearance.

That underling had one eye that occupied half of his face; his talent was not outstanding, and his strength was only average.

Only his mouth is truly adept at flattery.

Not only did Lei like this unconventional henchman, but some high-ranking deities also liked this guy.

Of course, these were just some trivial matters that occurred among the higher levels of the gods. What truly made Lei's reputation resound throughout the upper echelons of the gods was a conflict.

As a non-divine being active among the higher ranks of the gods, there are bound to be gods who dislike Lei.

On that occasion, Lei was severely injured by a [First-Class Deity].

He is still alive thanks to the help he received from a [Supreme God].

When the Supreme God behind Lei learned of this, that day...

A god has fallen!

The one who made the move was none other than the Supreme God, and the god he killed was the First-Class God who had been severely injured by lightning!

One more step and one can become a first-class deity, the supreme god!

After this battle, Lei's name became a taboo among the high-ranking gods.

After recovering from his injuries, Lei completely disappeared without a trace.

Ray's henchmen, it is said, also plunged into the abyss, guided by the "Supreme God."

This is the thunder mentioned by the [God of Radiance].

Little did he know that some of the information he mentioned would stay in An Kai's mind.

First, there was Lei's henchman, whose single eye occupied half of his face, and finally, under the guidance of the [Supreme God], he plunged into the abyss.

This immediately reminded An Kai of an acquaintance.

It also aligns with the beginning.

No wonder the God of Light went to the abyss specifically to bewitch the enormous vertical eye, and succeeded on the first try.

Even if the two sides should have been enemies.

So the two were old acquaintances?

If the two parties are old acquaintances, then it's understandable why the enormous vertical eye was willing to take all his possessions to the realm of the gods after being easily swayed by the [God of Light].

Furthermore, why did Lei disappear after recovering from his injuries?

An Kai also knew the reason.

This is what Lei said himself. After having an unpleasant encounter with the [God of Law], he officially began his ten-life reincarnation journey.

I suppose this is the time.

Was the [God of Law] truly trying to avenge Lei by killing the [First-Class Deity]?

Ankai believes it's not necessarily true.

He knew that the [God of Law] was a [Supreme God] who had become one over thousands of years, and that his foundation was weaker than that of the other two [Supreme Gods].

Killing a [First-Class Deity] may not only be to avenge Lei, but also a show of force.

Tell the gods that from this day forward, there will be three supreme gods among the gods!

Ankai guessed correctly; the [God of Magic] did indeed have that intention at the time.

That's why, after killing the "first-class deity," he pretended to appease the other deities, telling them that he wasn't a tyrant.

Then let Lei begin his tenth reincarnation, completely disappearing from the realm of gods.

Even Lei's henchmen were banished to the abyss by the [God of Magic], and from then on, they were forbidden from setting foot in the realm of gods.

I heard new information about thunder from the God of Radiance.

Ankai was quite satisfied.

He was struggling to decide who to send to the seventh level of the Divine Court, and now it seemed that no one was more suitable than Lei!

The former founder of the Divine Court, the leader of monsters from the abyss, and the elder brother with huge vertical eyes—with these two excellent qualities, Lei is destined to explore the seventh level of the Divine Court.

If other beings entered, An Kai was worried that they would die at the seventh level of the Divine Court or at the hands of the enormous vertical eye.

If it's a thunderbolt, there's absolutely no need to worry about it!

"Wayne, if Ray isn't around, can you still activate the Ten Reincarnations Technique on your own?"

Wayne, who was presiding over the absorption of the new [Fifth-Rank God], was taken aback. He first glanced at Ray, who was working hard, and then slowly nodded.

The method of ten reincarnations is not difficult.

It's just because its usage conditions are too demanding.

That's what makes the ten-life reincarnation method seem so difficult.

Wayne, on the other hand, is a scholar who has mastered the art of magic!

It's just a ten-life reincarnation method!

It's no exaggeration to say that Wayne mastered it completely after just one viewing!

With Wayne's words, Ankai felt relieved.

He waved to Lei, who was still busy, and said, "Come here."

Lei's figure suddenly froze. Even though An Kai's tone was very warm, his body trembled involuntarily.

It felt like being splashed with a bucket of ice-cold water in the sweltering heat of June.

However, Lei dared not delay when Ankai summoned him.

He hurriedly ran towards An Kai with small, quick steps: "Sir, you were looking for me?"

"I've noticed you've been working very hard lately."

"Their performance was also very good."

"How about this, I'll give you a reward."

"A chance to reunite with an old friend, how about it? Don't you like it?"

An Kai spoke like a considerate boss, slowly and deliberately explaining his reward.

Wayne's mouth opened slightly.

To this day, he still has no clue.

What does it mean to reunite with an old friend?

Ankai offered no explanation.

Instead, he grabbed Wayne and shot straight into the sky.

In an instant, it burst out of the sea and stood in the air above Good Man Island.

After determining the direction, An Kai suddenly rushed out.

Throughout the journey, Ankai kept praising Lei.

He was praised for his hard work, etc.

Lei scratched his head, full of questions but unsure how to express them.

Not long after.

Ankai led Wayne to the Seventh Level of the Divine Court.

He gave Lei a gentle nudge: "Go in, your old friend is right here!"

Lei staggered a few steps, then suddenly came to his senses.

Make sure you see clearly what's in front of you.

"【Divine Court Academy】?!"

"Um????"

"The newly revived [Seventh Level of the Divine Court]???"

"My lord," Lei said with a pained expression, "I...I..."

Unable to utter a single word, An Kai waved his hand, his expression unchanged, and said, "Go on, there are some old friends of yours inside."

"So? Don't you like my reward?"

Seeing An Kai's feigned ignorance, Lei, despite having a thousand words in his heart, couldn't utter a single one.

final.

He sighed softly, "Sigh!"

He took a step forward with a heavy heart, and a tremendous force suddenly came from behind him, carrying lightning as he entered the seventh level of the Divine Court.

Just as Lei entered, An Kai clearly heard a gasp of surprise.

"Lei?! You bastard?!"

"It sounds like the voice of a giant, vertical-eyed person?"

"Listen to this sound."

"Their relationship seems a bit different from what I expected."

An Kai muttered a few words, wanting to listen a little longer, but the ripples in the [Divine Court Academy] disappeared, leaving only the sound of reading aloud.

An Kai sensed that Lei hadn't died immediately, which relieved him.

Good people are blessed by heaven, and their children and grandchildren will have their own good fortune.

After taking one last, unremarkable look at the Divine Court Academy, An Kai flew towards the House of Goodness.

"You bastard! Do you even recognize me?!"

"Huh??? Who are you? What did I do to you? Did I kill your whole family?"

"You've gone too far than killing my whole family! Prepare to die!"

"You're crazy! I don't know you. My name isn't Ray, it's Wayne!"

"You're talking nonsense! You're Lei! I'd recognize you even if you turned to ashes!"

"You bastard! I will kill you today!"

Upon entering the Divine Court Academy, Lei found himself in a life-or-death crisis.

The moment he saw the enormous vertical eye, some memories began to resurface.

Just then, a startled shout suddenly rang out within the [Divine Court Academy]: "No noise is permitted in this school ground!"

In an instant, the enormous vertical eye fell silent, as if trembling with fear.

His whole body was shaking uncontrollably, like that of a late-stage Parkinson's patient.

His face was deathly pale, and his large, single eye was filled with terror.

Clatter clatter

A series of footsteps approached from afar.

Lei stared wide-eyed.

But what he saw was a figure that could fill his eyes with blood.

"It's you?!"

"Wayne, do you need any other help?"

Upon returning to his home of goodness, Ankai did not seek out the God of Radiance to further gather information.

Instead, they went to the [Divine Nurturing Center] to ensure that the place could still function normally even without lightning.

Upon hearing his teacher's question, Wayne pondered for a moment, then, without any pretense, replied directly, "If there were a true god, it would save a lot of trouble."

"good!"

An Kai readily agreed.

With a swift grab, the [Sixth Level of the Divine Court], which had been placed in the House of Goodness, trembled. The Donglin magic spirit, which had longed to leave, transformed into a beam of light.

"Godfather!"

"I've finally met you, my child!"

"During your absence, I missed you terribly, my godfather!"

This was Wayne's first time seeing Donglin Zhenling.

Just one meeting was enough to make Wayne feel a sense of pressure.

It's not pressure based on strength.

It was Donglin's skill in flattery that made him call his godfather so affectionately, something even Wayne couldn't do.

"This is a formidable opponent!" That was Wayne's first thought.

"Shut your stinking mouth."

"You are not allowed to call me godfather here!"

This time, Ankai did not agree.

If they were alone, he wouldn't mind that old dog Donglin calling him godfather.

But in a virtuous family, it's best to forget about it.

He didn't want Donglin to enjoy any special privileges at the Good Family because of this.

Donglin paused, his old face full of grievance.

However, An Kai remained unmoved, leaving behind the words: "If I find out that you are saying outside that I am your godfather, I will not only imprison you again, but I will also make you live alone in the Chaos Aura for the rest of your life!" before leaving.

Hearing An Kai say this so bluntly...

Wayne, on the contrary, breathed a sigh of relief.

"So it wasn't a formidable rival after all, just a dog kept by an adult."

Ankai left, and Wayne came to Donglin's side.

Donglin instantly snapped out of his dejected state and looked at Wayne with a fawning expression: "My lord, you look somewhat familiar."

"Heh, you look familiar, that's why. You turned my father into an undead back then, do you remember?" Wayne didn't have a friendly look on his face. If it weren't for Ankai, he would have avenged his father's death today.

Perhaps understanding what Wayne was thinking, Ankai's voice echoed in his mind: "It's yours now, you can do whatever you want with it."

To be honest, when An Kai said those words, Wayne really wanted to kill Dong Lin.

But I remembered what my teacher once said: Donglin is the core of the sixth level of the Divine Court.

He forcefully suppressed the urge to kill the other person.

After all, the [Divine Cultivation Center] also needs the other party's help.

"Your father is the King of the Kingdom of Shak?"

Wayne nodded slightly, his eyes seemingly overflowing with disgust.

"Your Honor, I'm innocent! There's been a misunderstanding between us!"

Donglin then began to tell Wayne about his grievances.

Ankai, however, had already found the [God of Radiance] waiting motionless in the castle courtyard.

"Go on, tell me what your mission is this time."

The God of Radiance swallowed hard.

My heart was filled with utter panic.

Without even blinking, he sent his capable subordinate to the seventh level of the Divine Court.

"Let me remind you, I know exactly what you're thinking. If there's a next time, you'll go to the Seventh Level of the Divine Court to keep him company."

"Besides, he's not one of my capable subordinates; he's just a defeated opponent."

"Oh, right, same as you."

咕咚

The God of Radiance swallowed hard once more.

It would have been better not to explain; the explanation only made him more afraid.

However, even though he was afraid this time, the God of Radiance did not have any wild thoughts.

Nothing else

He dare not.

He didn't want to explore the Seventh Level of the Divine Court.

The God of Radiance never expected that he had just recently decided to send 10 of his subordinates to explore the Seventh Level of the Divine Court.

Unexpectedly, it hasn't been long before it's my turn.

He pondered for a couple of seconds.
