Chapter 388 Hypnos, who aspires to be a hero
Hypnos felt as if the rage in his heart was about to burn through his chest, and his hands trembled violently.
The giant sword behind him continuously emitted bursts of sword cries, echoing Xiang Xiupu's feelings.
Ye Nanxiao looked up at Di Tian and signaled to Di Tian not to push Xiu Puluos too far. If pushed too far, even a cat or dog will bite.
Di Tian naturally understood Ye Nanxiao's meaning. Having vented most of the anger he had felt from being attacked by Hypnos during the battle, he transformed back into human form and hovered beside Ye Nanxiao.
"Now that you've come here to kill, may I ask, God of Slaughter, do you have any news about the Silver Dragon King?" Ye Nanxiao asked knowingly.
Hypnos, who was about to burst into flames of anger, suddenly deflated.
"No," Hypnos replied honestly.
"If you didn't have any news about the Silver Dragon King, why did you come here directly to kill him?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
Hypnos glanced at Di Tian, who had a cold face, and said, "Come and take a look. This black dragon usually follows its master."
Upon hearing this, Di Tian clenched his fists, and the black dragon phantom behind him reappeared, its eyes bloodshot and its whole body radiating murderous aura.
"It is because of you gods that our Lord has disappeared! And now you dare to humiliate me again!"
"You damned gods!!"
"Even if I killed you a thousand times, it wouldn't be enough—!"
Di Tian, like a wild beast out of control, was engulfed in black flames, his claws glowing with seven colors, as if charging toward Hypnos.
Upon seeing this, Hypnos quickly reached out and gripped the greatsword behind him.
Although he was wary of the backlash that would result from his actions in the mortal realm, it didn't mean he was a punching bag that could be beaten at will.
Ye Nanxiao raised his right hand and placed it in front of Di Tian's chest. The frost, radiating a chilling aura, immediately adhered to him, turning Di Tian into an ice sculpture in the blink of an eye.
"You!" Di Tian turned his head and glared at Ye Nanxiao, then his head was covered in frost.
Ye Nanxiao held the frozen Di Tian in his hand, looked at Xiupu Ruos, and said, "Don't be nervous, relax. Now that we've reached a truce, I don't want to start another war."
"Besides, you know the consequences of using divine power recklessly in the mortal realm."
An unexpected turn of events caused Hypnos's hand, which was gripping the greatsword, to freeze in place.
But as the first general under the Asura God, what kind of grand scene hasn't Hypnos seen?
Hypnos quickly realized that the Frost God and Di Tian were only in a temporary alliance, and that the alliance was unstable.
He instantly understood this, and a friendly smile immediately appeared on Hypnos's face.
Releasing his grip on the greatsword, Hypnos's tone softened considerably. "It seems this friend is quite sensible. How shall I address you?"
"If you have the chance in the future, you will see me again," Ye Nanxiao said, changing the subject.
Seeing that Ye Nanxiao had no intention of revealing his identity, Hypnos wisely refrained from asking any more questions.
We can investigate slowly after we return to the God Realm. There aren't many frost deities in the God Realm, so it won't be difficult to find out.
"Why did you summon your domain? Aren't you afraid of the backlash from the power of the world?" Hypnos asked. Without the protective lamp, he didn't dare to mobilize his divine power.
Ye Nanxiao smiled coldly, "If you don't move, I naturally won't move either."
"Alright, my friend, now that we've reached a truce, may I leave?" Hypnos said.
"One more thing to confirm: you won't come back to cause trouble for Di Tian. I believe the knowledgeable God of Slaughter has already guessed the nature of my relationship with Di Tian."
"Moreover, with such a huge commotion, and even Di Tian almost falling to your sword, there was no one else coming to his aid. This shows a lot."
Ye Nanxiao shook the Emperor Heaven version ice sculpture in his hand.
Hypnos fell silent for a moment, having understood the meaning behind Ye Nanxiao's words.
Previously, when he was suppressing Di Tian and even almost killing him several times, the Silver Dragon King did not come to his aid. It is very likely that the Silver Dragon King was not here at all.
Judging from Di Tian's reaction when he tried to use his words to manipulate him, this stupid dragon didn't know the whereabouts of the Silver Dragon King and could only end up as a mountain king.
Since the silver dragon he fears isn't here, what's the point of talking to these two people?
Hypnos's murderous intent began to stir again.
"This Frost God before me, though also a god, seems to be severely injured. If we continue fighting, I can take him down in less than a hundred rounds. As for Di Tian, he's lost his godhood and is just an ant that I can crush with a flick of my wrist." Hypnos thought to himself, wanting to risk the backlash to take down the two of them. A hint of killing intent surged in his eyes as he looked at Ye Nanxiao.
Looking at the subtle expressions on Hypnos's face, Ye Nanxiao immediately knew what Hypnos was thinking.
They simply used their false information to determine that Gu Yuena was not in this area, and then tried to kill them and Di Tianxia.
"Your Excellency, God of Slaughter, there's a saying in my hometown that goes, 'A wise man submits to circumstances.'" Ye Nanxiao released his grip.
The frost on Di Tian's body quickly receded. After glaring at Ye Nanxiao, he turned and stared coldly at Xiupuros, a hint of color appearing in the black flames on his body.
Ye Nanxiao fully utilized the second ice flower fragment, and his aura surged once more, with the faint phantom of the Ice and Snow Goddess appearing behind him.
The howling blizzard swirled up a large number of snowflakes, and a few snowflakes brushed against Hypnos's armor, making a metallic clang.
Hypnos's pupils narrowed slightly as a chill crept into his body, and he recognized the light and shadow behind Ye Nanxiao.
In the realm of gods, his superior, the God of Asura, practically controls the entire realm, with only a few areas where he cannot intervene.
Besides the Destruction Castle, the Ancient Tree of Life, and other places ruled by the God-King that the Asura God could not interfere with, there was another place that the Asura God could not interfere with even after spending a lot of effort: the primordial prison of the God Realm, the Ice God Realm!
When Hypnos once ran errands for the God of Asura to enter the Ice God Realm, that peerless figure who suppressed the God Realm was deeply imprinted in Hypnos's heart.
"Damn it! How could he be one of that person's direct subordinates!" Hypnos cursed inwardly.
Wasn't I just descending to the mortal realm on a mission? How did I end up running into the most troublesome person in the entire divine realm?
There is an unspoken rule in the realm of gods: do not provoke the gods of the Ice God Realm.
They rarely leave their homes and mostly stay within the Ice God Realm. They are extremely low-key and never compete for anything, yet they are untouchable by any of the gods in the entire God Realm.
Because the Ice God who rules the Ice God Realm is an extremely protective deity.
Anyone who bullies a deity of the Ice God Realm, especially one of the Ice God's direct subordinates, will face the Ice God's personal wrath.
Over the years since Hypnos became the God of Slaughter, he has had the good fortune—no, he has witnessed several times his own superior being beaten up by the Ice God at the entrance of the Asura Palace.
Even the two great god-kings of destruction and life tried to persuade him, but to no avail.
Within seconds, Hypnos made another decision.
"This friend's hometown seems to be an extraordinary place. The saying 'A wise man submits to circumstances' is very true!" Hypnos removed his armor, revealing his divine robes, and sheathed his greatsword, making his stance clear.
"Yes, this is Mr. Junjie." Ye Nanxiao's lips curled into a slight smile.
Their negotiations are essentially complete.
"I remember a saying that goes, 'No fight, no friendship!'"
Hypnos clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ye Nanxiao.
"Can I consider you a friend now?" Hypnos said with a smile.
Seeing the stiff smile on Hypnos's face, Di Tian snorted coldly and closed his eyes to regulate the restless soul power within his body.
Ye Nanxiao cupped his hands slightly and said with a smile, "Of course, we became friends after our initial encounter."
"Then, my friend, may I ask if you are a direct subordinate of the Ice God?" Hypnos finally asked the question that had been on his mind.
Although the blurry phantom that had just appeared behind Ye Nanxiao was blurry, the unparalleled aura it exuded allowed Hypnos to recognize that the phantom was the Ice God.
"It's not appropriate for you to use the word 'under' to describe my relationship with the Ice God." Ye Nanxiao smiled, raised his right hand, and a crystal-clear ice flower appeared in his hand.
"The lament of the goddess of wind and snow has faded!" Hypnos murmured.
Upon hearing Hypnos's voice, Ye Nanxiao secretly memorized the name "A Lament for Decay".
The flower in his hand was a life-saving gift personally given to him by the Ice God, and it was also a mark of his status.
Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly, smiled mysteriously, and said, "Try to guess something from a higher level?"
"The next level!" Hypnos's pupils shrank again.
He never expected that this mysterious frost deity in front of him would have such a powerful background!
Di Tian slightly opened his eyes and glanced at Ye Nanxiao.
After spending several days together, Di Tian had become familiar with some of Ye Nanxiao's speaking habits.
When Ye Nanxiao adopted that mysterious tone, it meant he was luring the fish to take the bait.
Di Tian had witnessed Ye Nanxiao's schemes against the Crimson King, the Demon King, and other soul beasts countless times.
Hypnos, who had been mistaken for a fish, was still in shock.
"Above the Goddess of Snow and Wind lies the confidante of the Ice God! But all of the Ice God's confidantes are female deities. Why does this deity before me give me a feeling that she is not like a woman? Could she be an unconventional deity like the Water God, who doesn't care about formalities?"
Although Hypnos still had doubts, the aura emanating from the crystal-clear ice flower before him was undeniable.
"I didn't expect to encounter a powerful figure from the Ice God Realm in this world. I see you seem to have suffered considerable injuries and are forced to recuperate in this world?" Hypnos's face showed concern.
"It's a long story. I simply attached this wisp of my soul to the mortal realm so I could see firsthand how this world is developing," Ye Nanxiao casually offered a reason.
"Oh! So the Divine Heart has encountered gloom! It needs to be adjusted temporarily!" Hypnos said with sudden realization.
"My friend, regarding the cultivation of the divine heart, although I am a god of slaughter, I have some experience and insights. Witnessing the growth of a world is certainly a good way to recuperate, but the best way is naturally to break through it by force!" Hypnos said confidently.
Ye Nanxiao nodded slightly.
Why did he feel like this damned killing god on the other side was conjuring up some grand drama in his own mind?
