After learning of Tang San's "conspiracy", the God of Destruction was naturally furious at first.
That anger of being blinded by a trusted person for many years, which ultimately led to irreversible consequences, surged within his heart like an ignited flame for a long while.
But after the anger, he was also immensely grateful that he had obtained his own memories from Ten Thousand Years in the future from Huo Yuhao.
In the end, all emotions turned into an uncontrollable trace of excitement; now knowing everything, he would definitely win this time.
The God of Destruction took off the hood he wore year-round, revealing a handsome and angular face.
His facial features were deep, and his brows carried the coldness and sharpness belonging to the God King of Destruction, but at this moment, that sharpness converged slightly when looking at the Goddess of Life.
He sat down beside the Goddess of Life. Although their temperaments were completely different, the picture of them sitting together was inexplicably well-matched.
The smile on the God of Destruction's face gradually faded. He reached out and spread his palm open in front of the Goddess of Life.
At first, the Goddess of Life did not pay much attention to it, thinking he was going to take out some weird little trinket to show her again.
Although the God of Destruction was an exalted God King, sometimes in her heart he was like an ungrown child, always making strange moves that she could not understand.
However, a moment later, when her gaze fell upon the green ball of light in the palm of the God of Destruction, the calmness and composure on her face could no longer be maintained.
Her emerald-green eyes suddenly froze, and her gaze locked tightly onto that ball of light.
She clearly felt that the aura emanating from it was precisely her own Origin life force.
The Goddess of Life then abruptly turned her head to look at the God of Destruction, with unhideable shock and astonishment in her eyes: "Where did this come from?"
Origin power was also of vital importance to a God King, and normally it was impossible to strip it away casually.
Although the Goddess of Life had indeed separated her own life Origin during the long years, she had no impression of this cluster before her eyes.
The expression of the God of Destruction also grew serious at this moment. He gazed at the Goddess of Life and said in a low voice: "This is the life Origin left behind before your fall Ten Thousand Years in the future."
Hearing this, the Goddess of Life frowned, as this sentence made it somewhat difficult for her to understand.
What did it mean by her own self Ten Thousand Years in the future?
And what did it mean by before her fall?
She looked into the crimson-red eyes of the God of Destruction, attempting to find a trace of joking from within, but only saw an unprecedented earnestness.
She opened her mouth, but did not immediately press further, only using her gaze to express her confusion.
The God of Destruction did not explain much further, only calmly adding a sentence: "There are your memories inside this. After watching, you should understand."
The Goddess of Life had no doubts. She nodded slightly, and with a thought, that emerald-green life Origin slowly floated up from the palm of the God of Destruction, lightly sinking into the center of her brows like a leaf lifted by the wind.
Immediately, a vast and clear memory slowly unfolded in the depths of her consciousness.
Like a scroll spanning a long time, it rolled backward from that time period Ten Thousand Years in the future that had already occurred, back to the present moment.
The Goddess of Life quietly immersed herself in those memories, her face flickering between light and shadow amidst shifting illumination, as if witnessing a destiny intimately connected to herself.
A moment later, she slowly opened her eyes.
That pair of emerald-green eyes still carried a slight quiver, just like her mood at this moment which was not calm.
She did not doubt at all that those memories were fake, because the life Origin was genuinely real, and the aura contained within it was completely identical to her own Origin. Even the God of Destruction, who was also a God King, could not fake it.
She turned her head again to look at the God of Destruction, her voice carrying a trance-like daze as if just waking up from a long dream: "This... is this our future?"
The God of Destruction spoke in a low voice: "That's right, this is our future."
After finishing this sentence, his tone shifted slightly: "However, now that we already know what will happen in the future, we can completely make changes."
He looked at the Goddess of Life's emerald-green eyes that still carried a hint of daze, and continued: "Facts have proven that the set of things Tang San insists on is completely useless. Even if we sacrificed our lives, he still failed to protect the Divine Realm."
The Goddess of Life listened quietly, the memories she had just seen still churning in her mind.
She wanted to say that if it weren't for Little Zi launching a divine war which consumed the power stored in the Divine Realm, the Divine Realm might not have been unable to block the Space-Time Turbulence.
She also wanted to say that there were too many changes in all of this. No one anticipated that the Space-Time Turbulence would suddenly appear, and even less did anyone think that the Golden Dragon King would break free at that critical moment and ravage the Divine Realm.
But these words ultimately only circled in her heart a few times and were never spoken out loud.
Because no matter how many reasons there were, the final result was already laid out there: Tang San did not protect the Divine Realm.
Previously, the Goddess of Life had always trusted Tang San quite a bit. In her eyes, that Sea God originated from a Mortal, fought his way through thorns and thistles to reach today, and possessed a sense of responsibility and boldness hard for ordinary people to reach. He was a qualified candidate sufficient to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the Divine Realm.
But at this moment she had to admit that this trust had ultimately been let down.
As for the Divine Realm Ten Thousand Years later, she now didn't know where it had drifted to, and she couldn't even imagine what kind of predicament those deities familiar to her were in.
A strong sense of guilt suddenly surged in her heart, feeling that if she hadn't wavered between her husband and Tang San, if she could have made a firm choice earlier, the Divine Realm might not have suffered such tribulations.
Those thoughts were like tiny thorns stabbing deep into the depths of her consciousness, leaving her unable to let go.
But now that she already knew the future, she would definitely not remain inactive anymore.
Thinking of this, the Goddess of Life's gentle eyes gradually became firm.
She looked at the God of Destruction, her voice carrying an unprecedented decisiveness: "Little Zi, do whatever you want to do, I will support you."
Hearing this, the God of Destruction saw his crimson-red eyes flash with an excited light. He could no longer remember how long it had been since he heard the Goddess of Life speak to him in such a trusting tone.
The differences and estrangements of these past years seemed to be gently smoothed over at this moment.
He took a deep breath, strongly suppressing the surging emotions in his heart, and said: "I will convene the God Realm Committee to discuss the matter of expanding the Divine Realm."
He had brought up this matter many times, and every time it was firmly opposed by Tang San, and not once could it pass.
Hearing this, the Goddess of Life was silent for a moment, as if seriously weighing the pros and cons, and then said: "I will go communicate with the two God Kings of Good and Evil and have them support you."
The God of Destruction felt a burst of joy in his heart. This feeling of being fully supported by his own wife truly made his whole person feel a bit lighter.
However, the Goddess of Life subsequently said: "But this matter cannot be decided solely by the five God Kings of the God Realm Committee. An expanded meeting of the God Realm Committee must be convened for a vote."
"There are quite a few Divinities in the Divine Realm who still trust Tang San very much. Wanting it to pass is not so easy."
Hearing this, the God of Destruction was just about to open his mouth to respond, but suddenly stopped.
Because at that exact moment just now, he sensed a contact from the Lower Realm—it was Huo Yuhao.
Through the resonance of the Super Divine Artifact, the Scepter of Destruction, like a silent call, pierced through the Law barrier of the Divine Realm and landed precisely within his perception.
The Divine Thought of the God of Destruction quickly sank along that contact, descending upon the Douluo Continent.
In Haotian Castle of the Clear Sky Sect, he quickly locked onto two familiar auras—they were Niu Tian and Tai Tan.
As divine attendants once by the side of the Sea God, he had some impression of these two people.
At this moment, they appeared on the Douluo Continent and acted in the identities of the Sect Master and Deputy Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect. Wasn't this ironclad proof that the Sea God violated the regulations of the Divine Realm?
A God King planting his own trusted aides into a Lower Realm Sect for long-term lurking—this had far exceeded the category of "accidental prying".
A trace of an extremely faint arc appeared at the corner of the God of Destruction's mouth. He looked at the Goddess of Life and smiled, saying: "Rest assured, this time, not only will we get the proposal to pass, but we will also seize his authority as an Enforcer."
