"Star Sovereign, I feel that with your strength, placing you among the Law Sovereigns is simply too unfair to the other Law Sovereigns!"
The spiritual senses of the other Sovereigns in the Infernal Realm had been focused around Off and Roy since Destiny Sovereign Off appeared in the Infernal Realm, so naturally, they all heard Destiny Sovereign Off's words.
"Hiss..."
So, what exactly just happened?
The Star Sovereign had played a game of 'trapping the tortoise in a jar,' gathering six Sovereign Legions and annihilating the Sovereign Legion from another God Plane that had come to the Star Mist Sea.
And then—
Destiny Sovereign Off had come to the Infernal Realm!
Later, the Star Sovereign had actually made the first move against the Destiny Sovereign?
Was he not afraid of being directly killed by the Destiny Sovereign?
But, what was the final outcome?
The Destiny Sovereign Off, who had won a move in his battle with Destruction Sovereign Utred and was implicitly known as the "Strongest Rule Sovereign," had actually torn open a massive spatial rift between himself and the Star Sovereign, and had plainly stated that placing the Star Sovereign in the category of Law Sovereigns was too unfair to the other Law Sovereigns.
What did this mean?
Could it be that in that last move, the Star Sovereign had caused Destiny Sovereign Off to suffer a loss?
Did the Star Sovereign actually possess power on par with a Rule Sovereign?
"If what Lord Off said is true, and I possess the power of a Rule Sovereign, then Lord Off wouldn't have been able to emerge so easily just now."
Upon hearing Off's words, Roy's mind flashed with an inexplicable thought, and he quickly retorted.
Shaking his head, Off did not answer Roy's question.
"Star Sovereign, look, this incident has resulted in the annihilation of my Sovereign Legion, and two Sovereign's Emissaries have also been punished by you. How about we let this matter rest here?"
"Heh..."
Roy sneered.
"Lord Off, you were the one who started this. If you've suffered a loss, you were the one who stepped forward first."
"Now that you've suffered a loss, you want me to let it go? Is there such a good thing in this world?"
Hearing Roy say this, Off also sighed.
To be honest, even Off hadn't expected things to escalate to this point.
In Off's eyes, apart from the other three Rule Sovereigns, he didn't take any other Sovereigns seriously.
Even if he offended them due to some friction, would the other Sovereigns dare to act presumptuously in front of him?
He hadn't expected to encounter a tough opponent this time.
The other party had disregarded the rules of engagement, gathered six Sovereign Legions, and directly annihilated his Sovereign Legion.
This was the second time!
The first time was on the Plane War, where the other party had gathered five Sovereign Legions and annihilated his Sovereign Legion right from the start.
Furthermore, from that last move, it was clear that the Star Sovereign's strength was far from what he appeared to be.
Should he make a move?
"Alas..."
As the figure of Destruction Sovereign Utred appeared above the Star Mist Sea, Off abandoned the thought of making a move.
"Off, this is the Infernal Realm!"
Although Destruction Sovereign Utred also wished for Off and the Star Sovereign to fight, to see if the Star Sovereign truly possessed the merged innate divine ability of the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods, and if his strength had reached that of their Four Rule Sovereigns or even surpassed it.
However, as he said, this was the Infernal Realm!
It was Destruction Sovereign Utred's territory!
The last time the Death Sovereign had crossed realms, Destruction Sovereign had fought the Death Sovereign. If Off came and he showed no reaction, how would the other three view him?
"Rest assured, Utred, I have no intention of making a move in the Infernal Realm."
Off smiled and nodded at Destruction Sovereign Utred, then turned his head to address Roy, "Star Sovereign, regarding this matter, can we perhaps discuss it privately?"
"Oh? What does Lord Off wish to discuss?"
"About that woman, I wonder if the Star Sovereign..."
"Lord Off!"
Roy's face turned ashen. "Do you know what you're saying?"
If Lord Off still wishes to fight, then let's go to the spatial rift!
Shelley had followed him for three trillion years. Regardless of whether it was out of emotional considerations or for his dignity, Roy could not abandon Shelley just because of Off's words.
"My apologies, I was impolite."
Seeing Roy's resolute expression, Off could only sigh, "How about this, Star Sovereign, if I were to ask the woman a few questions, would that be acceptable?"
"Alright."
Roy nodded. He really wanted to know what Off saw in Shelley that made him search for her across all God Planes and Supreme Planes.
Even the Sovereign Legion was annihilated, and he personally stepped in.
Roy's Spiritual Sense spread out, instantly locking onto Shelley's location.
Then, Roy's figure dispersed into elements, and in the next moment, he re-formed in the same spot.
However, this time, a young girl appeared beside Roy.
"He directly dispersed himself into the most basic elements?"
Seeing Roy's move, the Destruction Sovereign narrowed his eyes.
This was the first time he had seen such a technique.
"Is this a move developed by the Star Sovereign himself, or a talent of some other Divine Beast?"
Ever since he saw the achievements the Star Sovereign made by studying the divine beast essence blood of the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods, the Destruction Sovereign had also become fascinated with studying divine beast essence blood.
Indeed, recently, by studying the essence blood of a certain divine beast, he had deciphered its innate divine ability. Furthermore, this application had even allowed Utred to improve his own usage of his innate divine ability.
This made Utred even more certain that his current strength was not his limit!
He could still become stronger!
"Greetings, Lord Roy."
"Shelley greets the two Lord Gods."
After receiving Roy's Spiritual Sense transmission, Shelley greeted the three Lord Gods in succession. Then, she stood behind Roy and respectfully asked the Destiny Sovereign Off, "I wonder if this Lord God has any questions for this humble one? If it involves Lord Roy, then please forgive this humble one for not being able to answer the Lord God's questions."
"Loyalty is commendable."
The Destruction Sovereign Utred and the Destiny Sovereign Off both nodded slightly in their hearts.
It was no wonder the Star Sovereign protected her so much; this young girl was indeed worth protecting.
"Don't worry, I have no intention of prying into the Star Sovereign's other affairs."
After giving Shelley a sense of security, Off began to ask, "The hair tie on your head is an important item I lost a long time ago. What do you need to give me this hair tie?"
"What?"
Shelley's eyes widened, and she instinctively touched the hair tie on her head.
She never expected that this Lord God would mobilize so many resources, only to want her hair tie?
If it were an ordinary item, Shelley might have given it directly to the Destiny Sovereign Off to avoid unnecessary trouble.
But this hair tie was given to her by Lord Roy.
"I'm sorry, Lord God, this hair tie was given to me by Lord Roy. If you want it, please speak directly to Lord Roy. I can't make the decision."
As soon as Shelley said this, Off could only turn his gaze to Roy.
Originally, Off was speaking to Shelley to bypass Roy and obtain the hair tie.
After all, owing a favor to a God was different from owing a favor to a Lord God.
"Star Sovereign, what do you say?"
And Roy, at this moment, was looking at Off in surprise.
This hair tie was a wondrous item that Roy had found in a spatial ring billions of years ago.
After putting on this hair tie, a God's recovery ability when injured was comparable to using Sovereign Power.
Now that Off valued this hair tie so much, a thought instantly flashed through Roy's mind.
"Could this hair tie be a component of a Supreme God artifact?"
"Off, you've already received a task from a Supreme God, and you're only short this hair tie to complete it?" Thinking of this, Roy instinctively didn't want to give the hair tie to Off.
"Lord Off, this item is a rare and wondrous artifact, I cannot..."
"Star Sovereign, in the next Plane War, no matter which faction my Destiny Sovereign faction faces, I will do my utmost to prevent the Death Sovereign faction from achieving nine consecutive victories, how about that?"
Before Roy could finish speaking, he was directly interrupted by the Destiny Sovereign.
"But if you don't give me this hair tie, I will go and help the Death Sovereign faction achieve nine consecutive victories, or even ten consecutive victories. What do you think?"
"Off!"
Roy's eyes turned cold, and he stared intently at Off.
He hadn't expected Off to use the Plane War to negotiate with him.
Indeed, Off was currently only short of one Supreme God artifact to complete the Supreme God of Life's task and receive the Supreme God's reward.
And the Plane War, currently, the Destiny faction had only achieved two consecutive victories, and it was still a long way from ten consecutive victories.
Compared to the gains from achieving ten consecutive victories in the Plane War, Off felt completing the Supreme God's task was more reliable.
"Fine, Off, you're good!"
Finally, Roy nodded.
"Shelley, I'll take back this hair tie for now. I'll give you something else later that no one else can take away."
"Mhm."
Despite her reluctance, Shelley obediently untied the hair tie and handed it to Roy.
Roy waved the emerald green hair tie at Off and said coldly, "Lord Off, the hair tie is in my possession now."
"If you want it, then defeat the Death lineage in the next Plane War!"
With that, Roy unleashed a powerful repulsive force from his divine body, pushing Destiny Master Off and his two Sovereign's Emissaries far away.
"Now, Lord Off, farewell!"
Having received Roy's answer, Off no longer lingered in the Infernal Realm. He tore through space with the two behind him and returned to the Heavenly Realm.
In order to obtain the Butterfly Dance Chain, Off had to target the Death Sovereign lineage in the next Plane War.
And now, Off's Sovereign Legion had been crippled, so he had to return to the Heavenly Realm to reorganize it.
Furthermore, he needed to recruit a few more powerful Sovereign's Emissaries if possible.
