Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 737: The Sun God Descent
Outside the ruins, at the sea where the trial of the Sea God is located.
The Sea God’s Trial location had been exposed by some satellite camera thinking that it was another natural treasure grove growing on the sea. Who would have thought that the people who were controlling the camera would capture the sleeping Moon Goddess under some growing tree in the middle of the sea. There is also the fact that an unknown door appeared out of nowhere where they found the Moon Goddess. At first people were just excited to catch a glimpse at the Moon Goddess, but when they heard that this door is possibly an entrance to a God’s Legacy, their eyes sparkled with excitement.
In just a few hours, cultivators arrived in the area by water and sky. Some rode on ships while those who could fly had flown over. Despite the location being in the middle of the seas, people had still gathered. As they got closer to that location, they realized that the tree in the picture was a towering one. Seeing the huge tree, they looked around for the presence of the Moon Goddess and like in the photo, they found her sleeping under the tree where a huge canopy was found. There are also some tables near her filled with small plates of desserts and a set of teacups.
The system was watching over the Moon Goddess when these people arrived and he wasn’t happy by their arrival especially towards the rude ones who appeared to want to approach the goddess. Upon seeing this, the system glares at the necklace hanging in his mistress’s neck and makes sure that Yue Xuexia has fallen into her deep sleep.
{Oi. The mistress is sleeping. Are you going to continue watching those bastards approach her in her rest?}
The system despite his annoyance didn’t lift a hand to harm these mortals. Even though he had enough strength to kill them on the spot, he didn’t do so. After all, he is the heavenly laws of this Exiled Star. He can’t just discriminately kill beings of his world like it was nothing. It’s just that Yue Xuexia is his priority, if he cannot make a move, he can just make someone take action instead of him. Inside the necklace given to the Moon Goddess by the Immortal Sun Emperor is his soul fragment. The soul fragment they had found in the Fallen God’s Graveyard in that hidden dungeon in the Cultivation Realm. It’s the being people called there as the Sun God.
This Sun God looks so much like Shen Jueyang. Moreover, as a part of his original soul, Shen Jueyang himself would descend here using this soul as a vessel like right now. It’s been a while since Shen Jueyang has returned to this realm. Even though he was only borrowing the body of his soul fragment, he truly wished to see Yue Xuexia after all this time.
"It’s the Moon Goddess!"
"Is she sleeping?"
"Do you think we can see her closer?"
"Idiot! Do you want to die?!"
"I want to see her upclose."
"Just one look or maybe one touch as well."
A few men bravely come closer to the tree where the Moon Goddess is resting, but just hundred meters away from the tree, a wave made of golden red flames blocked them. The man who had spoken last was burned alive and he wasn’t even able to scream. Everyone was terrified by the scene. They thought that this man deserved it and even thought that it was the Goddess of the Moon who had made a move. But when they moved their eyes from the burning men, they saw a familiar looking man standing beside the sleeping Moon Goddess with a small smile on the corner of his lips looking down on her sleeping face with gentleness within those gold eyes.
His long, crimson hair was loosely tied on his back wearing a robe that closely matches what the Goddess of the Moon wears. Just the sun figure on his back shows what kind of being he is. At this moment, the Sun God is now Shen Jueyang, the Immortal Sun Emperor who had descended. Playing with the hair of Yue Xuexia, the smile on Shen Jueyang’s lips widens a bit. One can see the doting hidden within his eyes.
The mortal in the area realized that it wasn’t only the Moon Goddess who was here as a divinity. But also this man who emits the opposite power the goddess possessed also watches over the door.
Shen Jueyang’s smile disappeared as he turned his gaze from the Moon Goddess to the mortals surrounding the area. He coldly glanced at the men who wanted to come closer to his beloved.
"This is the first time I’ve seen mortals who didn’t fear death and at the same time didn’t know their place," Shen Jueyang said. "Is she so kind that you thought that Gods are the same being as you mortals?"
A pressure enough to make one kneel spreads in the area. Those ships that came approaching this site and some flying vehicles in the sky had all been broken at once. Shen Jueyang was so merciless that he emotionlessly watched as the humans fell into the sea struggling not to drown under his aura. Yue Xuexia was completely unaffected as the system had longed placed her into a deep sleep and not only blocked the noise but also the aura as well. This allowed her to sleep deeper than usual.
After the ships and other vehicles were destroyed, everyone was looking at the Sun God with fear in their eyes. Shen Jueyang was actually right. They had forgotten the difference between a God and a mortal. Moreover, with Yue Xuexia being the closest god to them, her kindness and good deeds made people think that all gods are approachable. Little did they know that a caring god like Yue Xuexia is the rare one in existence and that most divinities are arrogant and look down on the weak.
The cultivators wanted to apologize to the God before them. It was only now that they had regained fear towards who is more powerful than they are. There is also the fact that the aura Shen Jueyang is emitting right now is a lot stronger than the foreign cultivators who had invaded them before.
"Scram!" The Immortal Sun Emperor said.
Using his voice alone to push them away from where Yue Xuexia is resting. It was at this moment that the Sea God, Lan Shen, had come out after feeling the familiar presence of the sun. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"It’s been a long time, Sun brat! You are still as short tempered as always," Lan Shen, the Sea God said.
The sea was disturbed and swirled into a living whirlpool until the figure of a gorgeous male mermaid appeared from it, with a wave of his hand everything within the sea had gone still. It had also cancelled out the pressure Shen Jueyang had spread just now.
The Immortal Sun Emperor, Shen Jueyang said, "Old thing who loves to play at the sea. If you wake Xue’er up, I’m going to beat you up too."
This threat was pretty solid that the Sea God felt his lips twitching. The brat is still a brat even after a few hundreds of years have passed.
"Calm down. I am not here to wake up the young lady. Tsk! The little girl is full of manners, how come this little bastard isn’t and to think he is an emperor himself," the God of the Sea grumbled.
Shen Jueyang glanced at him coldly and said, "You know that I can hear you. Since your successor has been found, just scream as well."
"That won’t do. I have too little apostles under me. I need to find a few more for my heir," retorted Lan Shen and said, "So stop blocking those who want to take my trials."
"Do you think I am blocking them? They are the ones who act rude first. Who told them to approach Xue’er who was sleeping," said the Immortal Sun Emperor.
The Sea God sighed and turned to look at the mortals who were waiting in the distance and noticed that they were either stunned by his appearance or on guard towards them especially before the presence of the Immortal Sun Emperor.
"Next time, you shouldn’t carelessly approach a god. Not all divinities are as kind as the Goddess of the Moon. Most gods are like this brat, arrogant, short tempered and had a bad temper. Moreover, the only reason the Moon Goddess is patient with you is because this planet is hers which means you are all her subjects. Even so, let’s not overdone things," The Sea God said.
Lan Shen waves his hand and a part of land from under the sea has appeared and is now connected to the door. He had also made a part of some kind of harbor where the ships and other vehicles can be parked over. As for where the Moon Goddess is staying, it has become a forbidden zone with Shen Jueyang’s presence.
"Alright. Only those who are compatible with water elements can go inside. The others will just die if they try to enter a place full of water. Don’t forget I had warned you. I will not save you inside as well. Good luck~" Lan Shen had disappeared after saying these words.
After a piece of land appeared with the wave of a hand from this mermaid who is most likely the Sea God, the cultivators had all greeted him with such respect. They didn’t dare to approach the short tempered Sun God as they were afraid of being burned alive by this divinity. Well, one among them has long turned into ashes.
With the permission of the Sea God, those who wanted to undergo the trial were allowed to pass through the doors, only those with compatibility with water were allowed inside.
