Miss Violet, the initiator of everything happening in the city, remained unaware.

 

Probably because of the many events that have occurred, she accidentally forgot what the act of throwing this lotus flower, which is the essence of the 10th-level magic, into the sky amid the attention of everyone, actually signifies.

 

In any case, with this, the city below should be safe, allowing them to focus their attention on dealing with the Goddess of Earth.

 

【Sethlin, hey, hey! Back from the dead, what’s with the daze?】

 

After tapping the head of the stone statue, which remained unresponsive for quite some time, the voice of the former goddess sounded somewhat stiff.

 

【Violet, you and Xiao Guang are quite formidable, aren’t you? Not only can you confront the Main God head-on, but this kind of forbidden-level barrier, even in my prime, would have been quite laborious to release. How did you…】

 

Huh?

 

Didn’t we already use it once before?

 

The priestess paused, only then recalling that Sethlin seemed to have been essentially sealed off from external perception before her awakening this time. This was probably her first time witnessing Violet using 10th tier magic firsthand.

 

【So, as I said, leave it to me to handle it. By the way, what exactly was your estimation of me before?】

 

【Just… reaching god tier ordinarily, but as a demigod without divinity? After all, if you were a true deity, you wouldn’t lack the application of divine soul, and also…】

 

【Huh? And also what?】

 

【Ahem, that’s a long story. Let’s focus on the main point for now. Xiao Guang is still battling [Withering], and I think it’s best to go help her as soon as possible.】

 

It seemed that Sethlin, despite having a high assessment of Xiao Guang’s strength, still had some incomplete understanding, or she believed that Sethlin had some trump card that could turn the tide. Violet didn’t correct her and instead followed the topic.

 

【Don’t worry, I’m keeping an eye on it. Also, what’s the plan after defeating that Seth? Should we just kill it?】

 

【That’s impossible. The divine essence is eternally indestructible. Even if you erase this Seth, it will quickly give birth to a new consciousness. It’s meaningless. The best solution is sealing it.】

 

Seemingly hesitant, Sethlin still hesitated and asked.

 

【Violet, if we defeat [Withering], can I talk to it? This whole thing feels a bit suspicious, you know. Actually, the deity in the wordless book before…】

 

“Boom!!!”

 

A louder explosion than ever before reverberated through the sky, immediately interrupting Sethlin’s topic and putting her on high alert.

 

The platinum and gray lights constantly colliding higher in the sky seemed to temporarily separate with this strike.

 

The uncontrollable gray meteor plummeted downward at high speed, while the platinum light took advantage of the situation, colliding with it several times in the air, only to shine even brighter!

 

【Alright, let’s head back for now.】

 

【Yes!】

 

With a thought, Violet called out to her pet through the contract, and the platinum stream immediately stopped pursuing, rushing towards the direction of the black-haired girl, swiftly returning to the side of the priestess.

 

The reappearance of Xiao Guang showcased a state and attire entirely different from usual.

 

Smooth and magnificent platinum scale armor covered the girl’s entire upper body, with even her fingers enveloped in claw-like gauntlets. A dragon-shaped magic pattern adorned her forehead, while her golden hair billowed freely behind her.

 

Long, slender legs emerged from the white battle skirt, and blade-like boots extended almost to her knees. Electric currents circulated around her two valiant dragon horns, and her thick, powerful dragon tail was more than twice as long as usual, resembling a sharp spear trailing behind her.

 

“Wow, you even used your hybrid form. It seems you’re quite satisfied with this opponent, huh?”

 

Without any hesitation, the dragon lady patted the head of the Valkyrie-like girl and squinted as she nodded repeatedly.

 

“Yeah, Master, she’s really something! Even though I’m stronger, it’s worth going all out!”

 

The fusion form is a special combat stance of Xiao Guang as a dragon, typically when dragons transform into humanoid forms, their combat abilities are somewhat weakened and they need to revert to their true form to unleash their truly powerful moves.

 

However, this fusion form, unique to Xiao Guang or seemingly exclusive to the Crystal Dragon of Divinity, ingeniously converts the enhancements brought by the dragon’s true form into armor form, allowing Xiao Guang to unleash power even surpassing her true form.

 

She only uses this method when facing enemies worthy of serious consideration.

 

While the primary and her pet chatted casually without much tension, the goddess who had been knocked down from the sky by Xiao Guang finally managed to return to their presence, looking much worse for wear than before. Her gown, probably made of divine power, was tattered, and there were traces of golden-gray blood at the corners of her mouth. Even the artifact named the “[Withering] Flower” had lost its luster, forming a stark contrast with the imposing Xiao Guang.

 

At this moment, the goddess was looking at the two girls standing together with uncertainty.

 

“Oh, you dare to come back on your own? Truly remarkable, Divine Lady. What’s wrong, can’t accept defeat?”

 

Sethlin furrowed her brow, her gaze shifting between the fusion form of the dragon lady and Violet, occasionally glancing downwards at the grandiose barrier covering the entire Sky Island, even though she had mostly regained her divine power, she still found it somewhat unbelievable.

 

“Main God… how is this possible? There’s no position for a Dragon God in the Main God, and you, you clearly don’t possess divinity, so why do you have the power of a Main God?!”

 

Seth’s earlier words suddenly came to Violet’s mind. Having completely seized control of the situation, Violet didn’t rush to take action and deliberately probed.

 

“Who says you can’t challenge the Main God without divinity? That’s just your ignorance. This world is much bigger than you think.”

 

“My ignorance…? Haha, hahaha… You dare to call me ignorant? This body has endured tens of thousands of years, existing long before life was born in this world! You, little girl, what about you?!”

 

Looking up and laughing heartily at the sky, Sethlin seemed to suddenly understand something. Gradually, her gaze became cold.

 

“Is that so… It came so quickly. I didn’t expect that as soon as I returned to the rank of God, showing my prominence, the malice of the world would immediately descend. It seems there was preparation early on…”

 

“I said, how could there suddenly be beings above the god tier in this world? A Main God without divinity… Haha, hahaha, what a force of the world, what a rejection! Hahahahahahahaha!!!!”

 

What’s this… saying things while crying and laughing again? Could it be encountering something incomprehensible, unable to win, and starting to come up with all sorts of chaotic interpretations?

 

Violet and her pet looked at each other in bewilderment. Just as she was about to say something else, the goddess suddenly interjected.

 

“You two, aren’t creatures of this world, are you?”

 

“Um…?”

 

Violet was suddenly startled.

 

While the priestess could still pass off Seth’s previous behavior as unable to withstand the shock and going crazy, this sentence, she had to admit, hit home.

 

Because it was true.
