Chapter 871 Hey! How did I become a traitor?
The Knicks finally understood Chu Yun's plan.
However, precisely because of this, the Knicks' anger gradually subsided.
This even gave the Knicks a strange feeling.
well.
very good.
If one's opponent is truly a piece of trash that can be kneaded and manipulated at will.
Therefore, it's impossible for her to be considered a formidable rival by the Knicks, and the two sides have been entangled ever since.
Chu Yun's increasingly outstanding performance only made the Knicks more composed.
After a short silence.
Nix glanced in the direction of the other primordial gods residing in the Hilla pantheon.
It was after that one glance that the Knicks seemed to make a decision.
The next moment, her figure disappeared from the spot.
when it appears again.
The Knicks have already made several passes.
They arrived at the command center of the outer heavens' frontline army within the Hira pantheon.
Here, a series of ring-shaped world tracks, resembling railway tracks, have been built around a star.
In the most heavily guarded area of that ring world.
A magnificent palace, towering into the clouds.
In the palace.
A human-shaped statue stands there.
It is forged entirely from magical minerals.
The entire statue has a faint glow, as if it were created naturally, containing some kind of profound Taoist charm.
And directly below this statue.
There stands a throne, alone.
On the throne, a handsome man in black leaned back lazily.
The man was resting with his eyes closed.
But at one point, he seemed to realize something.
The man slowly opened his eyes.
The first thing that catches the eye is the figure of a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in black, with a cool and aloof demeanor.
Who else could it be but the Knicks!
"Erebus".
Knicks looked in the man's direction and called out his name.
This man is currently the only commander-in-chief in the Hira pantheon responsible for the battle between the Hira gods and demons!
It can be said.
His power was so great that it was among the greatest in the entire Hira pantheon.
Of course.
The man was of extremely high status.
She is one of the primordial gods in the Hira pantheon.
Erebus, the god of darkness.
In the Hira pantheon, she symbolizes darkness.
It is a creation of the darkness of heaven and earth.
It is hailed as the source of all darkness in the Hira pantheon.
Because of his existence, there is a distinction between darkness and light in the world.
It can be said that as long as darkness exists in the world of the Hira pantheon, he is immortal.
His relationship with the Knicks is self-evident.
Like Nix, he was a creator of the Hira pantheon and the son of Chaos, the god of chaos.
If judged by human ethics and morality.
The Knicks also have to call him "brother".
Of course.
There is also a well-known intimate relationship between the two.
They are both siblings and husband and wife.
Erebus did not seem surprised by the Knicks' arrival.
"Knicks, what do you want now?"
A hint of weariness flashed in Erebus's eyes.
To know.
He knew almost without even having to guess why the Knicks were there.
It must be related to the Great Xia pantheon.
Or to be more precise, it is related to Chu Yun, the most prominent and rising star in the Great Xia pantheon.
After all, last time, it was because of the Knicks.
I returned to the Immortal City of Ten Thousand Saints once.
This led to another brief encounter with Chu Yun.
Although that time...
Erebus was constrained by the fact that his base was on the celestial frontier, not in the City of All Saints.
In addition, he was wary of the forces behind Chu Yun.
Therefore, when the Heavenly Court and the demon race intervened, the Immortal-Slaying Blade was about to strike.
Erebus preferred to have one of his avatars destroyed by the Immortal-Slaying Blade rather than completely break ties with the Great Xia pantheon.
But at the end of the day.
Erebus suffered a loss at Chu Yun's hands.
However, since the last incident...
Erebus seemed to have given up.
He has also been rarely seen by outsiders.
Erebus can only be seen occasionally on this celestial front, on the battlefield where he clashes with demons.
seem.
After returning to the celestial front, Erebus devoted himself entirely to the war against the demons.
Regarding the conflict between the Knicks and Chu Yun.
As a husband, he doesn't seem to care about or show concern as much anymore.
"Knicks, don't say anything yet."
Erebus suddenly interrupted Knicks.
He waved his hand dismissively, somewhat annoyed, and said, "Let me guess what you're trying to say."
"Oh right, what you're trying to say must be related to the Great Xia pantheon, right?"
"I've already heard the news about the final battle a month from now."
"However, I do not intend to participate in the war."
"What ultimate battle? In the end, it's just a game played by the higher-ups."
“Those extraterrestrial demons have someone backing them up, but you have nothing behind you.”
I still advise you to give up.
"No matter what, we are from the same ancestral planet."
"If we continue to fight amongst ourselves, we'll only become a laughingstock to others."
"What good would it do for you or me to do something that hurts our loved ones and pleases our enemies?"
"In the end, it was nothing more than those extraterrestrial demons gaining benefits for nothing."
Erebus didn't give Nix a chance to speak, immediately expressing his attitude towards the conflict between the Hera and Bactrian pantheons.
However, to be precise...
It should be a conflict and entanglement between the Knicks and the Great Xia pantheon.
Because the entire Hira pantheon is now widely known, it can almost be said to be divided into three factions.
On one hand, there is a group of gods and demons led by Nix, who have a long history of conflict with the Great Xia pantheon and there is no room for reconciliation. If either side finds an opportunity, they will surely try to kill the other.
On the other hand, there are the gods, led by Gaia.
Representative figures among them, such as the primordial goddess Gaia and the young deity Athena of the new generation, have clearly expressed their attitude of maintaining good relations with Chu Yun and the Great Xia pantheon.
And the last party.
These are the primordial gods such as Erebus.
These primordial gods almost never made an appearance.
At least in its conflicts with the Great Xia pantheon, it rarely intervened.
Even Erebus.
He only made a move once.
After that, he disappeared without a trace and never participated in it again.
These deities can be said to maintain a neutral stance.
Whether it's competing with the Great Xia pantheon or forging friendly relations.
Neither of them made a clear statement.
obviously.
Erebus did not want to completely antagonize the Great Xia pantheon.
Just as he said.
No matter what, the Great Xia pantheon and the Hira pantheon both originated from the same ancestral star.
Before the external enemy was completely defeated, the country was plunged into a near-endless civil war.
This is something Erebus did not want to see.
At least in his opinion.
This situation is not good for him.
However, it seems that Erebus misunderstood the Knicks' meaning.
The Knicks weren't there to recruit him.
The Knicks were not surprised by Erebus's attitude.
The Knicks suddenly smiled.
She knows her brother, who is also her husband, all too well.
Last time, Erebus was able to return to the City of All Saints and help her.
That's because Erebus also desired something beyond.
At the same time, Erebus felt that his authority had been challenged.
After all, because of Chu Yun, several of his children with the Knicks died.
For Erebus, this was tantamount to crossing the line he could tolerate.
This is simply because Erebus is the commander of the outer front of the Hera pantheon.
He certainly couldn't allow someone from an external pantheon to damage his reputation.
Ultimately, Erebus's decision to make that move wasn't because of any particular affection between him and the Knicks.
That's why.
After Erebus understood the situation, he decisively chose to withdraw from it.
After all, anyone who isn't a fool can see that Chu Yun has many powerful connections behind him.
It can be said that moving one thing can affect the whole situation.
If you want to deal with Chu Yun, you need to think things through first.
Whether he had made up his mind or whether he had the ability to deal with the forces behind Chu Yun.
Whether it's the Heavenly Court, the Demon Race, or even the renowned powerhouses of the Great Xia pantheon like Nuwa.
Even if you single one of them were chosen, they would be someone Erebus would be extremely wary of.
Not to mention, the powerful figures in these forces have almost all made it clear that they will stand on Chu Yun's side.
How could Erebus possibly bring himself to do it?
As the frontline commander of the Hira pantheon, his judgment of the situation was clean, decisive, and ruthless.
If they do not make a move, all is well; but if they do, it will be a devastating blow, striving to strike with a single, decisive strike.
So it is.
The Knicks now.
This prevented Erebus from seeing any possibility of her success.
Therefore, it is impossible for Erebus to side with the Knicks.
As for the relationship between the two.
Whether it's an older brother or a younger sister.
They are still husband and wife.
Those are all defined using human standards of judgment.
In the eyes of these ancient creatures that have survived for a long time.
These so-called feelings are not worth mentioning.
Or rather, it's simply difficult to take it seriously.
"Erebus, you've misunderstood me."
"I'm not here to ask you to join my side."
"I know your considerations, and I understand that you are handsome as the Goddess of the Hilla system."
"I don't make certain decisions easily."
"It's something," Knicks suddenly said.
"Oh?"
This surprised Erebus.
Things seemed to be a little different from what he had imagined.
Knicks continued, "I just came to tell you..."
"Next, I will announce to all living beings that I am breaking away from the Hira pantheon."
"I will join the Alliance of All Races and become one of the new Eight Domains Patrol Angels."
“From this day forward, there will be no further connection between you, Erebus, and me.”
Ok? !
Upon hearing this, Erebus, who had been lazily leaning against the throne, suddenly sat up straight.
His expression was no longer as calm as before.
A look of shock crossed his eyes.
obviously.
Knicks' words struck Erebus's heart like a heavy hammer blow.
He had no idea that the Knicks had come to sever ties with him!
Of course, what shocked Erebus the most was Knicks's words.
She wants to break away from the Hira pantheon and join the Alliance of All Races.
What is the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races?
These are the myriad races that the gods regard as extraterrestrial demons!
"Knicks."
"you?!"
Erebus narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression becoming complicated.
The Knicks didn't say anything more.
He simply smiled faintly at Erebus, then turned and left.
Erebus watched Nyx's retreating figure as he walked further and further away, eventually leaving the hall and disappearing completely from his sight.
"Your Excellency, are you... are you really going to let the Knicks go?"
"She just made it clear that she wants to betray my Hira pantheon and join the extraterrestrial demons."
Suddenly, several voices rang out inside the main hall.
It originated from Erebus's personal guards.
obviously.
Knicks' words were also heard by the other gods and demons.
"It's not so much that I let her go."
"It's more accurate to say that she had already thought of everything for me."
"Why didn't she leave quietly, but instead came to tell me?"
"The reason is simple: she wants to use you to let the gods know that there is no longer any connection between her, Nix, and me."
"This also means that even if she, Knicks, defected from the ranks of the gods."
"Even the gods cannot hold a grudge against me..."
Erebus's expression was complicated, and he murmured something.
Silence fell over the hall.
Meanwhile, news broke that Nix had betrayed the gods and chosen to join the Alliance of All Races.
It quickly spread beyond the heavens.
When the major pantheons learned of this, they were all utterly shocked.
"The Knicks have betrayed us?!"
"This...this...this...she, a primordial goddess, enjoying supreme status in the Hira pantheon, actually betrayed us?!"
"Oh my god."
"Hiss, it seems that the Great Xia pantheon has really pushed the Knicks to the limit."
"Pah, what's with all this 'forcing'? The fact that Knicks and Chu Yun, and the Great Xia pantheon, have gotten to this point is entirely her own fault, she brought it on herself!"
"No matter what, the Knicks' defection is a great loss to us gods."
"Yes, yes, it's all Chu Yun's fault, it's all the fault of the Great Xia pantheon!"
“That’s right, that’s right. If Chu Yun hadn’t been so aggressive and the Great Xia pantheon hadn’t held onto past grievances, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.”
"Damn it, the people of Great Xia have always been like this."
"Damn it, it's all Da Xia's fault!"
"The Great Xia pantheon must give us an explanation for this matter."
The outer realms are in complete chaos.
A theological analysis offered a rational perspective on the Knicks' actions.
Of course, some pantheons seized the opportunity to guide public opinion and attack the Great Xia pantheon.
They spared no effort in denouncing Chu Yun, wishing they could define him as a sinner of the gods' camp and slap a big label on him.
Among them, the cherry blossom goddess danced the most enthusiastically.
After all, the Sakura pantheon suffered too many losses at Chu Yun's hands.
This led to the little cherry blossoms both fearing and hating Chu Yun.
Meanwhile, cherry blossom goddesses in various places were making a ruckus.
Suddenly, another major event occurred within the Sakura pantheon.
"Big news, big news."
"The creator of the Sakura pantheon, the Heavenly Master, has also run away!"
"That old bastard has sided with the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races!"
"Holy crap, Sakura betrayed us?"
The cherry blossom gods, who originally intended to manipulate public opinion and stir up trouble in secret, were immediately dumbfounded.
This is just great.
Their creator also defected from the alliance of gods.
The words spoken by the group of cherry blossom goddesses were immediately rendered meaningless.
After all, who would want to associate with a rogue pantheon of gods?
The cherry blossoms were all dumbfounded.
I was just denouncing the sins Chu Yun had committed.
This is better.
They no longer need to garner sympathy or seek resonance among the various pantheons.
They transformed themselves into a rebellious pantheon.
They were like rats crossing the street, hated by everyone.
