Some things that touched the bottom line couldn't be compromised.
For example, if Long Chen accepted Di Yao and announced their relationship to the world, there might be no trouble for him. In the future, as long as he worked hard, Godly Emperor Jun might not do anything to him.
If he didn't accept, even if Di Yao didn't do anything to him, his fate would be full of trouble.
Moreover, she had already thrown caution to the wind, so it would definitely make her sad. After all, she was of noble status and had already put down her status to pursue him.
In fact, Long Chen didn't understand why Di Yao liked him, but after what happened in the Dreamspirit Realm, he couldn't care less about this problem.
No matter what, he couldn't accept her, and she couldn't replace Lingxi's position in his heart. Even if he had to take a huge risk, even if he might hurt her, he couldn't compromise and agree to Di Yao for a moment of comfort. So, he shook his head and said, "Princess, I'm sorry … I don't know what the future will be, but at least for now, I haven't walked out of the shadow in my heart. Before I kill my enemy, I really can't let myself accept you … I hope Princess can forgive me.
We've always been good friends, right? "
In fact, he felt that he should have rejected her outright, but the situation was different now. There were other people watching, and if he didn't give Di Yao any face, it would definitely intensify the conflict and seriously hurt Di Yao. The consequences would be unimaginable.
Although this was a rejection, it was at least within Di Yao's tolerance. Of course, in her estimation, under this kind of pressure, Long Chen should directly accept her.
Just like her mother said, she was young and beautiful, and her status was unparalleled. No man could resist her …
So when Long Chen announced his decision, even if Di Yao didn't break down, her heart ached. After all, for today, she had already put in a lot of effort. She had never worked so hard in such a humble manner before.
Whether it was for love or because she really liked him, it didn't matter. In any case, there was no difference.
For a moment, although she didn't break down, hot tears still flowed down her face.
"Long Chen!"
The Godking of Hell shouted angrily.
Long Chen felt as if he had received a blow to the head.
Thinking back to when he had just returned to the Dragon Sacrificial Continent, this Godking who was comparable to the War Demon at his peak and these gods all made him deeply apprehensive.
But now he could take their glares calmly.
This was a huge transformation brought about by his own advancement.
From the Battle of the Devil Star to the Gods now, he was different.
The Deity King of Hell's voice was as loud as thunder as he said angrily, "The princess treats you so well and wholeheartedly for you. She doesn't even care about her face. She is a princess, yet she is so infatuated with you. Yet, you are grieving for her dead wife. You have betrayed her!
Are you still a man?
If you're an upright person, then you have to take responsibility for what you've done. Even if you've just encountered a disaster, it's not an excuse. You've made me angry today. If you can't understand, then you don't need to leave here today!
I will personally kill you in place of the Divine Emperor! "
When the God King was enraged, all the gods retreated!
Everyone in the world heard the roar, and all sorts of rumors began to spread, making the matter even more confusing and confusing. Soon, people began to speculate about what had happened between Long Chen and Di Yao.
It seemed that Long Chen's current rejection was a powerful counterattack to the rumors from back then!
If he had killed his wife in order to get close to Princess Di Yao, then he wouldn't have needed to reject now.
However, what did the Deity King of Hell mean by taking responsibility?
The emotional bond between them was really wonderful!
However, everyone was still very shocked. In the past, all sorts of gods had tried to deal with Long Chen, but Long Chen had defeated them all. Now, the strongest among the gods, the Deity King of Hell, who surpassed all the gods, had launched an attack. No matter how heaven-defying Long Chen was, he would still suffer. In terms of fame, the Deity King of Hell was ten times more famous than Divine Lord Netherworld!
From Divine Lord to Deity King, this was a gap that not many Divine Lords could cross.
If the Deity King of Hell really wanted to punish Long Chen, then there would be no suspense.
Therefore, everyone was very shocked. Would there be a new battle?
Against the top existence that had returned to the gods, could the heaven-defying Long Chen still hold on after he had leveled up?
Now that the Trillion God Palace had formed, everyone had a great sense of belonging to Long Chen. When Long Chen encountered danger, they were very nervous and concerned.
The Deity King of Hell glared at Long Chen and threatened him. In a situation where he could explode at any time, Di Yao suddenly slashed her sword at the Deity King of Hell. Her teary eyes were slightly red, but her gaze was incomparably cold. She said, "You don't have to care about this. This is my own business."
Then, she looked at Long Chen gently and said, "Long Chen, go. I was too anxious today. I will find you another day and apologize for what happened today. No matter what, you must remember my feelings for you. Don't abandon me … You're right, I was too anxious and made things difficult for you. I promise I won't do this next time … But now, I have already decided that you are the person I want to love in this life.
Go back and calm down first. We will have a good chat in the future. "
She became even more submissive in front of Long Chen.
The deities were trembling with anger. This was the supreme Divine Emperor Princess in their hearts. Long Chen was the one in the wrong, and it was Long Chen who had taken her innocence. She only wanted Long Chen to take responsibility, and in order to obtain his love, she had to lower herself to such an extent. It was indeed a grievance. If it was Di Yao's previous personality, she would have been too lazy to even speak. She would have directly ordered the Deity King of Hell to kill Long Chen.
She didn't have to do this.
Now that things had reached such a stalemate, Long Chen knew that if he continued to pester her, it wouldn't be good. Although he had hurt Di Yao and made her very sad, it was also because she had misunderstood him and forced him in public. If there was another chance, the two of them could have a good chat, but now wasn't the time.
"Princess, farewell. After a few days, when we have calmed down, I will apologize to you again."
With that, he walked past the gods and headed in the direction of the Five Great Dragon Cities.
The gods, led by the Deity King of Hell, looked at Long Chen coldly, especially the Deity King of Hell. He really couldn't control himself and wanted to kill Long Chen, but he couldn't go against Di Yao's wishes.
But now, even if Long Chen proved his strength and potential, the connection between him and the gods was almost broken. Of course, the current him had the right to oppose the Deity King of Hell.
Back when he attacked Lingxi, Long Chen hadn't forgotten for a single moment.
Long Chen decisively left.
As soon as he left, Di Yao's expression became as cold as it could get.
"Princess!"
The gods hurriedly surrounded her, their faces full of concern. They were really pissed off by Long Chen. If it weren't for Di Yao still caring about him, they would have killed Long Chen a million times over.
Of course … right now, only the two Deity Kings could probably restrain him.
"Get out of my way. Don't bother me.
Without my permission, no one can touch Long Chen, and no one can get close to my palace. Otherwise, you'll have to bear the consequences! "
She also left in a cloud of dust and returned to her temporary imperial residence after a short while. Everyone else in the temporary imperial residence was chased out by her.
The rest of the gods looked at each other.
"Deity King, what should we do?" The Deity King of Storm saw an opportunity to take revenge on Long Chen and was tempted to make a move.
"I think Princess Di Yao is giving Long Chen too much face. It's not likely that they'll be together. Moreover, this Long Chen doesn't know what's good for him. He deserves to die."
"That's not the problem. It's the relationship between him and Princess Di Yao … If he doesn't know what's good for him and let Deity Emperor Di Jun admit it, he'll die for sure. We didn't kill him right away because we didn't want Princess Di Yao to be sad.
But we can't go on like this. The Deity Emperor will find out sooner or later, and then we'll be in trouble. "
Di Yao didn't want to kill Long Chen.
If she didn't kill Long Chen, Long Chen wouldn't know what's good for him.
So it was difficult to do both sides.
The Deity King of Hell thought for a while and said, "Let's give Long Chen some time first. He has potential and is qualified to be the Deity Emperor's son-in-law. It's up to him. If he still doesn't know what's good for him, then we can only find a way to tell the Deity Emperor about this and wait for him to make a decision."
"That's it. Let's hope that Long Chen will be smart.
The Deity Emperor's princess will be letting him off easy no matter what. "
"I just don't understand. Princess Di Yao has seen so many outstanding gods. Why would she like this guy?"
Not only did he not understand, but no one else did. It all happened too fast.
"Don't crowd around here. Let's go."
The Deity King of Hell ordered.
He returned to the Deity City of Hell. But on the way, the Light Deity King appeared in front of him and said, "This is really strange. You used the Fragrance of Desire to kill his woman. It should be Princess Di Yao's order. From the beginning to the end, it seems like Princess Di Yao planned all this. She wants Long Chen. Not only does she want him, she wants him. Why do you think so?"
The Deity King of Hell chuckled and said, "What are you guessing?
We're just subordinates. Don't think too much. We'll just do whatever the princess thinks.
She wants Long Chen's body and mind, so we'll give Long Chen's body and mind to her.
Why do you care so much? "
The Light Deity King shook his head and said, "I'm just afraid that what the princess thinks is not what the Deity Emperor thinks. It's best if you contact the Deity Emperor first."
"Why do you care what I do?
Are you done with your mission?
Your mission is the core of our trip.
Don't forget about it. "The Deity King of Hell patted his shoulder and smiled. He rushed into the Deity City of Hell.
"Then we're just letting Princess Di Yao do whatever she wants.
What's her goal? "
The Light Deity King could not understand. Even he did not know which Divine Emperor Di Yao's mother was.
At this time, Di Yao's palace was empty except for herself.
