Chapter 701
The Goddess of Love sat on the seat warmed by the fire and glanced at the patch of green above her angrily .

It was a colossal green jellyfish, and it was currently stretching . Such a movement made it look like it was engulfing the entire kingdom . Previously, with a flash of inspiration, she had tried to manipulate her God’s Kingdom and escape but was self-defeated . Sui Xiong had simply enlarged his body to wrap the entire kingdom, reaching his many tentacles outwards to add layers on the outside, making the kingdom look like a wrapped dumpling!
From afar, it looked like this large jellyfish had swallowed the entire kingdom into his stomach and was ready to demolish and digest it all .
“Stop being stubborn, look at the situation now!” His good friend, the Goddess of Lavender, was equally affected and sighed . “Thank goodness the Void Mask has a good temper; if he had been bad-tempered, you’d have been doomed a long time ago!”
“Yes, we have to be reasonable . This job was yours to begin with . He is a strong spirit but was willing to negotiate with you politely and offer a big pay-out . He merely invited you to take a walk and talk—that wasn’t hard at all! Instead, you chose to be ridiculous… . Honestly, if it were me, I’d have destroyed your God’s Kingdom and seized prisoners long ago!” Another god with similar sentiments, the Goddess of Fortune, chided the Goddess of Love .
“Yes, consider the situation from his perspective! If he were you, could you have been so controlled and calm?” The Goddess of Joy asked as she glanced sternly at the Goddess of Love .
The Goddess of Love was speechless, and she chose to shrivel up her body into a ball of fire, rolling around the floor as she laughed in a strange fashion .
This was the tactic that she always employed as a defense mechanism whenever her friends were debating with her and she was about to lose .

The Goddess of Fortune boiled with rage but was unable to do anything further .
All her friends knew that once the Goddess of Love used such a tactic, she would momentarily become unfeeling . If you tried to converse with her at this point, it would be futile . Even hitting her or throwing her into an ice mountain to freeze wouldn’t elicit any response . To put it bluntly, it was her way of throwing a childish temper tantrum .
“Sometimes, I really feel like beating her up . The fact that she hasn’t been beaten up by anyone yet in her life is a miracle in itself!” The Goddess of Fortune muttered angrily to herself .
The Goddess of Joy sighed and gestured above her as she said, “Maybe she’ll really receive a beating in the near future . ”
Looking at the body of the giant jellyfish above her, the Goddess of Lavender shivered and asked in a low voice, “Do you think… he knows everything that happens in this place?”
“Probably! If it were me, I would definitely probe fully till the internal workings of the kingdom—at the very least, I know I would be able to penetrate the Flame of Passion . The Void Mask’s power is stronger than mine . If I can do it, he definitely can do it,” the Goddess of Joy replied .
Upon hearing this, the Goddess of Lavender’s worry increased, and she asked tentatively, “Then… wouldn’t he notice us right now?”

The Goddess of Joy smiled and said, “Stop imagining things and scaring yourself! He’s so busy, where would he find time to notice us? Do you know how big the Church of the Void Mask is? Do you know how many followers he has? Furthermore, he has many other things to do… among the gods, even if he isn’t the busiest, he is definitely one of the busiest few . ”
“Yet in the end, this busy man managed to surround the Flame of Passion for a month!” The Goddess of Fortune had piped up .
The Goddess of Joy was momentarily stunned, and she froze for a long time before sighing .
“When this bastard wakes up, I’m going to give her a severe beating!” She turned and saw the Goddess of Love still rolling around in a ball of fire making “hehehe” noises and felt infuriated .
“Count me in!” the Goddess of Fortune agreed with a malicious tone .
A second later, the Goddess of Lavender also agreed with a low tone .
The Goddess of Love was often unreliable when it came to handling tasks, and such irresponsibility angered her friends . As such, they had built up their mountain of grudges over time . If there was a chance, they would love to beat her up till she was unconscious .

Of course, they would still band together to save her if there were any real problems despite any grudges or grievances . This was how their clique of gods worked and how they displayed their friendship .
At the end of the day, ranting and staying angry wasn’t going to resolve the problem . Therefore, in the end, the Goddess of Joy took the initiative to approach Sui Xiong to discuss the issue and attempt to calm him down .
In reality, all the goddesses were extremely afraid that Sui Xiong would destroy the Flame of Passion with the Goddess of Love inside if he had gotten too angry .
Based on his previous experience of crushing the Alliance of Evil Gods, his tremendous power would mean that doing so now would mean little to him . Furthermore, after the doings of the Goddess of Love, her being beaten to death would also come as no surprise to the rest .
This was similar to Earth where many dignified countries’ heads of state wanted to take a group photograph with many well-known technological companies’ CEOS and the latter had refused to . Instead of just politely rejecting the offer, they had kicked the heads of state out of the company angrily . In the end, the bodyguards of both sides became at odds with each other, and no one could negotiate with reason to stop the violence .
As people, one had to learn to be less arrogant!
However, imparting such logic to the Goddess of Love was useless as the silly girl was extremely unreasonable and unreceptive in a conflict .
“In any case, we hope you’ll be understanding of us . We’ll try our best to talk her down . ” Looking at the Gods speaking to him in such a courteous and desperate way, Sui Xiong felt awkward and signaled his agreement by nodding his head repeatedly .
After all, he was not an unreasonable person . When he met people with little to no logic, he usually used violence to get his way . However, in this case, against goddesses who were unwilling to partake in violence, he felt rather stuck .
The Goddess of Love acted like she wasn’t afraid of anything, and this was probably because she was extremely unwilling to work with the Goddess of Family . Towards this, Sui Xiong was helpless—he did not intend to destroy the kingdom or send the Goddess of Love to the wedding venue . This was not his style .
The Goddess of Joy was also extremely courteous to him and constantly apologized even for minor issues, putting him in a tight spot . The Goddess of Joy had decently strong powers and was ranked third in the Pantheon temple . Thus, this increased his humility towards her polite mannerisms .
If not for his promise to make Leon and Kalisa’s wedding a spectacular one, he would have abandoned ship completely at this point in time; now, that was not an option anymore .
In this world, even the most extravagant weddings could only request the presence of either the Goddess of Family or the Goddess of Love to give blessings, where the former was more popular . To allow the wedding to go down in history and remembered for a long time, both goddesses’ joint attendance was the most crucial factor as that would be what made it special . After all, for it to be memorable and to be a tale that could be passed down, the wedding had to have something significant rather than just outlandish décor .
To accomplish this, Sui Xiong didn’t mind biding his time, even if he had to stay here for a few more months .
