While Arius and his wives were making a badass entrance into the oasis empire somewhere in the heavens a God and Goddess were having a fight...
"Julia, why did you deceive me? What kind of benefits did Rex promise you for you to serve him? Tell me if he's threatening you, and I guarantee that I can help you!"
Ron stared at Julia with a fierce glare that made it seem like he wanted to swallow her whole.
"Foolish man! You'll never be capable of going against Rex."
Julia looked down on Ron with eyes full of disgust, disdain, and indifference — this was how she viewed him from the start.
If not for Ron's instructions, she would have never been able to pretend to be a gentle and virtuous woman in front of him.
As for how Rex was better than Ron?
Other than not having Rex's indifference and ruthless means, nothing else made him stand out.
In her view, Ron couldn't even compare to one of Rex's shoes.
"Rex, you arranged all of this, right? In fact, you led all of us by the nose from behind the scenes, didn't you? For this whole time, Julia was listening to your orders, right?"
Ron roared in anger.
By now, his eyes had reached a point where they might just burst with rage and hatred at any time.
Julia, who always kept a distance of three steps from him, looked so intimate and obedient when standing right next to Rex, and this fact made his blood rush to his brain.
Ron couldn't wait to kill the two of them!
Why couldn't he see through this farce?
Is what Ron thought to himself in rage.
Rex sure knew how to hide his plots!
Who would have thought that he was secretly leading them by the nose all this time?
No one could have imagined it.
After all, he never heard anything about Julia teaming up with Rex.
And it wasn't just him; even the rest of the Heavenly realm probably didn't know about this fact.
When exactly did she turn to his side?
Ron's soul almost froze over when he realized everything.
Rex was too terrifying!
'Was he hiding everything like this to dominate everyone and everything? What was he trying to achieve? Could it be…he couldn't be plotting something terrifying, right? He couldn't be the one plotting everything behind the scenes, right?'
Ron thought to himself.
"It seems that you aren't as dumb as you look! I would have doubted you and your achievements if you didn't react as fast as you did."
Rex said with a chuckle and then raised his glass to his lips and slowly took a sip before adding, "Ron, you should down this cup of wine as soon as possible. The Yellow Spring is a long way from here, and you won't get anything to drink on the way."
"What…Rex, are you planning to murder me?!"
Rex's words made Ron shiver in terror, and he realized that he didn't even have words to curse the two in front of him.
The entire heavens, his best friends which were Immortals, stood behind him, so did Rex dare to kill him for real?
He had never seen anyone other than Rex who could speak such murderous words with a lighthearted tone and a smile.
At the same time, Ron felt a monstrous bloodthirst rush at him with the intent to drown him to death.
Rex was far more terrifying than he appeared on the surface.
Everyone in the heavens believed Rex to be nothing but a low class God, alas, who would have thought that he would have such a side to him.
"Ron, are you retarded or something? Why would I make you come all the way here if I wasn't going to kill you? Do you think I am here to chat with you all night long?"
Rex said with an indifferent laugh.
Hum!
Right after he finished his words, the wine glass in his hands burst apart and released countless divine flowers that bloomed in their surroundings. A dazzling immortal flower materialized out of nowhere and took root in the Void in front of them, appearing as if it desired to absorb the vitality of all the living beings in existence.
Puff!
Ron, who kept a keen eye on Rex, never expected him to make a move right after he finished his words, so he couldn't resist the impact of his attack that blew him away.
Ron's chest exploded, and a divine flower with crystal-like petals took root inside him. The flower swayed and released a burst of light that rained on him.
At the same time, a terrifying pain from the depths of his soul assaulted Ron's mind and made him roar.
All of his resistance and offensive might got crushed in nothing but a moment, including his divine energy that he had just materialized.
The difference between the two of them couldn't be estimated!
"This is most definitely not the strength of a low class God! What else are you hiding…"
Ron tried to stand up with widened eyes.
Blood covered his body, and he coughed even more of it as he stood up with an expression full of disbelief.
The fact that Rex could so easily obliterate his divine energy and resistance meant that the strength he displayed just then had surpassed the level his current rank could resist!
This realization stunned Ron, and he wondered just how many more secrets Rex hid?
Rex was too terrifying!
"All of this divine energy you possess in your body is wasted, Ron how do you possess this much in the first place?"
Ron didn't answer his question and just stared at him.
The thing that made Rex interested in Ron — besides wanting to use him as a tool to pin the blame for his master plan — was none other than the Ultimate Golden Destructive Ability that only middle class Gods possessed.
It was one of the top three abilities of the Heavenly Realm when it came to destructive might, after all.
It's just that the gap between Rex and his rank was too great, so there was no way for Ron to exert the ability's true might.
Hum!
Right then, a dark golden flame burst from Ron's body, and the radiance of the word 'King' on his forehead also soared as he gave off a terrifying aura that could subdue all Gods and Goddesses into surrender — he was burning his divine energy as he resolved himself to fight to the death.
However, what left him dumbfounded, was the dazzling immortal flower rooted in his chest. Even after he went all out, the flower didn't disappear. It was as if it was embedded deep into his soul!
The bloodied flower was in full bloom, and its petals swayed in the surroundings.
Rex, on the other hand, didn't stand up and only watched the scene in front of him with an expression of interest.
Ron, however, understood well that he would die without a doubt if he didn't go all out right now. He could see that Rex only looked at him with the eyes of a hunter looking at its prey or someone high up looking down on a powerless ant that could be stomped to death at any moment.
"Rex, I must slaughter you!"
A bright light burst out from the depths of Ron's body.
He had sacrificed his dazzling divine energy with countless golden runes circulating around it, which turned into a white tiger that gave off a terrifying aura of suppression and seemed to desire the fall of the Heavens!
It was the life-saving treasure that he kept for a life-threatening situation where he had no way out!
"Die!"
Ron turned into a golden shadow with a yell and rushed at Rex with the intent to duke it out with him. If a concealment formation weren't covering the surroundings, his aura would have surprised the entire heavens.
Suddenly, monstrous demonic energy permeated the surroundings as a dark, crimson halberd cut through the air and appeared in Rex's hand. Without a change in his expression, he cut down with the halberd.
The white tiger, which rushed at him, exploded with a pop, and the divine energy also crumbled before it could touch him!
"You are a not a low class God…"
Disbelief and despair filled Ron's eyes, and he opened his mouth to utter some words.
"Aren't you too eager for death? Do I need to teach you how to put up some resistance now?"
Rex said with a flat tone as his other hand reached out and grabbed Ron's neck at lightning speed. Within moments, the offensive aura around Ron disappeared into thin air.
