Chapter 1384 My Lover

Even if the other party was once a true god, they had already fallen, and after death, they became associated with his business.

The Goddess of Love and Beauty suddenly laughed, moonlight shining on her, condensing into a visible liquid halo, flowing like a thin veil: “You are merely a ruler of the underworld in a remote world, yet you think you can control a true god?”

Zu’an had already taken out the Underworld’s Great Book of Life and Death, opening its pages and floating it before him: “What if we add the power of the God of Death?”

The part of the God of Death’s authority within him began to activate, the power of death pouring into the Underworld’s Great Book of Life and Death, instantly turning the entire altar area eerily ghostly, the blooming flowers withered, and the lush trees became barren.

The Goddess of Love and Beauty’s smile froze, but she quickly sighed softly: “Are you really willing to hurt me?”

There was a strange magic in her voice, like a friend’s confiding, like a lover’s murmur, and Hermes, lying on the ground on the verge of death, suddenly revealed a fanatical light in his eyes. This was the goddess he had dreamed of.

Zuan felt a wave of dizziness, and a surge of pity rose in his heart. He felt an urge to protect her from any harm.

He immediately thought of Yu Yanluo’s ability; now that the real Yu Yanluo was using it, its power was indeed extraordinary.

However, having experienced countless life-and-death situations and surrounded by many beauties, his resistance was much stronger than that of ordinary people. He took a deep breath: “I don’t want to hurt you either, so please leave her body. It’s better for everyone.”

“But I am her, and she is me. We are already one, so how can we be separated?” The Goddess of Love and Beauty chuckled.

Zuan’s face darkened: “I don’t care about that. Go back to where you came from. Don’t stay on her body.”

“But I don’t want to go back to that place. It’s too terrible, too desolate. Are you really willing to let me go back to suffer?” As the Goddess of Love and Beauty spoke, she slowly walked towards him. The moonlight seemed to transform into her dress, and various colors she had never seen before and could not name flowed on her hem—the most perfect and ideal colors.

Wherever her bare feet trod, the ground automatically became smooth and lustrous; the air itself became clear, daring not to carry a single speck of dust.

As she walked step by step, it wasn’t that she was traversing space, but rather that space was making way for her, adorning herself for her. Behind her, a phantom path paved with divine light automatically appeared, and three inches in front of her, translucent golden patterns bloomed and dissipated out of thin air, like the grandest fireworks welcoming her arrival.

She gently stroked Zaun’s face with her fingers: “My love, are you willing to part with me?”

Her face possessed a dreamlike beauty, one that shifted with the ideal aesthetic deep within the viewer’s heart.

Hermes, in the distance, heard her call Zaun her lover so intimately, and a sweet taste rose in his throat. He could no longer hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood, his already dying breath now almost gone.

“Second Brother!” Lilith struggled to climb to his side, embracing him tightly, tears streaming down her face. “Second Brother, how could you be so foolish?”

Everyone in the guild knew that Fifth Elder Lilith was always alluring and seductive, her most striking feature being her soft, charming laughter. No matter what happened, she always wore a smile; almost no one had ever seen her cry.

But now, holding Hermes, she was crying so bitterly.

Zaun had no time to concern himself with the lovesick couple; instead, he used his Eye of Truth to try and see beyond the dreamlike face, hoping to regain his composure.

To his surprise, the face behind the dreamlike light was still Yu Yanluo’s.

No, there were subtle differences. The features were the same, but she seemed even more beautiful.

The most striking difference was her eyes. They seemed to reflect the inevitable demise of all things, and also seemed to speak of the alternation between eternity and impermanence. It was a divine beauty that inspired a sense of insignificance and reverence in those who beheld it, followed by a profound sorrow.

He didn’t know if he was seeing the true face of the goddess of love and beauty, but it was certainly the clearest image of a true god he had ever seen. No other true god could perceive her so closely with their all-seeing eyes.

Why did such an indelible sorrow lie hidden beneath her exquisite beauty? What was she grieving over? A series of doubts flooded his mind, but he quickly regained his composure:

“

You are not her, and I am not your lover.”

The Goddess of Love and Beauty looked somewhat surprised, then a faint smile appeared on her face: “For countless years, countless people have wanted to be my lover but failed. Now I offer you to be my lover, and you refuse.”

Every smile, every gesture, even the tremor in her voice, was full of perfect charm. Zuan took a deep breath, trying to control his turbulent emotions: “If you want to be my lover, you can, but you cannot sacrifice her!”

Hearing his words, Lilith, who had been crying bitterly in the distance, paused for a moment.

She was utterly stunned. Could there really be such a shameless person in the world?

Bargaining with a true god, wanting to add the Goddess of Love and Beauty, universally acknowledged as the most beautiful woman in all the heavens and realms, to his harem? Becoming sisters with other mortal women?

How could he even utter such a thing!

Hermes was so enraged that he coughed up blood again: “Shameless scoundrel!”

Hermes’ anger level increased by 1024 + 1024 + 1024…

Lilith hurriedly patted his chest to comfort him: “Don’t be angry, don’t be angry…”

Meanwhile, the Goddess of Love and Beauty was visibly surprised by Zuan’s words, then smiled, a smile as beautiful as the most beautiful star in the sky: “I have indeed never heard of such a request. In the past, it was always men from various worlds who abandoned their wives and children to pursue me.”

Zuan sighed: “So we are not suitable. Give her back to me, and I will not harm you.”

The reason he had been trying to negotiate was mainly because the other party was, after all, a true god. Even if she had fallen and been resurrected, she was certainly in her weakest state now, but a true god is still a true god, and he had no confidence.

In addition, the Goddess of Love and Beauty’s abilities were indeed formidable; he couldn’t bring himself to kill her.

“You are indeed different. No wonder she fell in love with you.”

Hearing the Goddess of Love and Beauty’s words, Zuan was stunned. Who was she referring to?

However, he dared not delay any longer, fearing that Yu Yanluo’s soul was beyond saving. He opened the “Great Canon of Life and Death in the Netherworld” and said coldly, “Don’t waste any more time. If you don’t leave, I will have to take action even if I don’t want to. Since you perished back then, it proves that someone could indeed harm you.”

“What a heartless man.” The God of Love and Beauty smiled, casually waving his hand, a faint fragrance wafting from his sleeve, along with a hazy divine light.

The next second, the two were pulled into a separate world.
