Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Chapter 453: God Of Love

"Which god is Emma?" Daoist Lingyang asked with slight surprise.

He’d also traveled through almost half of the World of Gods, but he had never heard of the name Emma before.

There were only a few hundred gods in the entire World of Gods, so for Daoist Lingyang, who was also at this level, there shouldn't be any that he didn't recognize.

However, Gu Nan knew Emma was an exception. As a matter of fact, let alone Daoist Lingyang, very few gods native to the World of Gods knew of Emma's existence.

To be more accurate, ever since the first Great War of the gods, she had vanished without a trace, and very few people had contact with her after that.

What was even more interesting was that Emma didn’t intentionally hide herself. She simply detached herself from both the Light and Dark Factions after that year, announcing that she wouldn't get involved in future godly wars.

But she wasn’t adverse to showing herself if it was necessarily for fulfilling her divine duties. It’s just that for tens of thousands of years, there were very few situations that required her to step in.

She was Emma, God of Love Emma.

"God of Love?" Daoist Lingyang carefully searched his memory and confirmed that this was the first time he heard this name.

"Emma's divine authority is love." Gu Nan explained succinctly, "But since there is no God of Marriage, the marriage part is also in her hands."

This was why an apostle of the God of Love appeared outside the manor.

Gu Nan's series of actions had severely disrupted the normal matrimonial cycle of Atalante and harmed Emma's operations, which was why she sent an apostle to stop them.

Of course, under Gu Nan's deliberate arrangement, this God of Love who was already somewhat muddle-headed to begin with didn’t realize that this was all a conspiracy.

In the news she received, it was just a rich mortal merchant who had the sudden urge to sell embroidered balls to make money after hearing about Elise's story.

Even though it wasn't the other party's intention to make Atalante’s people tremble in fear and cause the marriage rate to plummet, it was still necessary to send an apostle to punish the other party and make them stop this.

After roughly understanding the entire process, Daoist Lingyang couldn't help revealing an odd expression.

"How did you know that this would lure out Emma?" Gu Nan's actions were too purposeful. Daoist Lingyang didn’t get the feeling that he was trying things out at all; rather, he felt that Gu Nan was already sure of the outcome in advance.

Gu Nan shrugged without replying.

It wasn’t like he could say this was a storyline that a certain bored player accidentally triggered in his past life while tormenting the mission called Elise.

Gu Nan also didn't meet that God of Love's apostle, or else it would be easy for Emma to notice something was off.

Following his plan, he already prepared a Legend Rank expert in advance to step in and kick that apostle out in an extremely rude manner.

Even when the other party identified herself as an apostle, the Legend Rank powerhouse still used vulgar words to swear at her and make her leave.

"My Lord, what you commanded has been done…" Legend Rank powerhouse Jotun said with a rather nervous expression as he stood in front of Gu Nan.

Not only was he scared of Gu Nan, he was even more terrified of retaliation from the gods—after all, his earlier behavior had truly angered a god.

Gu Nan was leisurely playing black cards with Daoist Lingyang and crushing him without much effort. He casually replied, "You're afraid? No need to be nervous. Emma is an extremely hot-tempered god, so she'll come over very soon."

Jotun was on the verge of tears. Who reassured people like this?

Daoist Lingyang, however, understood what Gu Nan meant—since she would arrive very soon, she would naturally also die very soon.

……

Old Fox was currently in Atalante.

Days of rushing around had left him with a weathered look on his face. As a mortal, he didn't have the ability to travel through planes, but luckily, the cruise ship from the Myriad Heavens happened to place him in Atalante.

"Mr. Fox, I must warn you… that what you are doing right now is very dangerous," a man stood by old Fox's side and cautiously reminded for the twentieth time.

This man was a subordinate of Daoist Heir Qin Ning and was none other than the Second Guardian, who had been specifically sent to Fox's side by Qin Ning.

Fortunately, the Second Guardian was here, or else old Fox would’ve been killed a long time ago due to Elise’s current infamy.

Now the two of them were on their way to the place where Elise "tossed the ball".

If the Second Guardian’s guess wasn’t wrong, then that powerful figure would most likely be paying close attention to that place or might even be there in person. It was truly a perilous place where it would be difficult to survive.

"My daughter is there." Old Fox gazed firmly ahead. At this time, they were almost at their destination.

Due to his orders, the Second Guardian couldn’t stop Fox from acting and could only dissuade Fox, which filled him with helplessness.

However, he didn't want to follow Fox and throw his life away as well, so he could only try his best to dissuade him, "That one obviously has plans. You might as well wait until this matter is over…"

"Who knows what he'll do to my daughter!" Old Fox displayed the characteristic stubbornness of the Atalante people and glared at the Second Guardian.

The Second Guardian couldn't help but bristle. He was very tempted to say that with that one’s status, if he really wanted to do something to your daughter, no one would be able to stop him at all.

While the two were talking, a sudden throbbing came from the front, as if a heavy force was pressing down on their hearts.

Old Fox stared blankly ahead, not understanding what was happening, but the Second Guardian was familiar with this as panic entered his expression.

"A god…"

……

The God of Love had arrived.

As previously stated, this god with a very artful divine authority actually had a personality that was not at all low-key and could even be said to blow up at the slightest grievance.

It’s just that she had very few friends, and after the first Great War, even fewer people recognized her. Combined with the fact that gods who overlapped with Emma's divine authority were extremely rare, she became an invisible person among the gods.

But today, the invisible person was aggroed out by Gu Nan.

Emma was a blue-haired girl who wore a light red robe. She stepped out of the void and announced, "Mortal, you will be punished for your foolishness, shallowness, and—"

Shadows emerged from behind Emma, bringing the God of Love’s words to an abrupt halt as the sense of danger that penetrated her bones caused her entire being to involuntarily tremble.

It had been way too long since she experienced something like this.

Ever since the Great War tens of thousands of years ago, she rarely had the chance to fight anyone, and normally, no one was willing to mess with a Tier 8 god either.

But at this moment, her opponent was completely oblivious to all of this and went for a fatal blow as soon as he appeared!

Gu Nan's fist smashed down from behind Emma's head, while his power of shadows wrapped around the both of them, isolating the aura of gods fighting.

In the eyes of outsiders, they could probably only see a ball of shadows.

Daoist Lingyang stood in the manor, calmly gazing at the scene taking place in the sky above.

He was perfectly aware that not even Gu Nan could maintain this level of shadow concealment for long—in other words, Gu Nan was certain that he could resolve the fight in a very short time.

A puzzled expression appeared in Daoist Lingyang's eyes: ‘The other party is a Tier 8 god. What will you do?’
