Panlong: Transcending from the Dominator of the Water System

Chapter 28 The Four Divine Beasts' Scheme: Hunting Down the Overlord
"Oh? You want me to give you a reason?"

Upon hearing Redding's words, Hope frowned immediately, and his tone instantly turned icy cold.

"Reading, do you dare question the Overlord?"

A hint of frost flashed across Parhouse's face, and his voice rose considerably.

"That's not the case. I'm just asking because, after all, many people from my Four Divine Beasts family have died."

Seeing this, Redding raised an eyebrow slightly and softened his tone a little, but still continued to speak.

"Shh! Shh! Shh!"

The next moment, the power of the three main gods instantly condensed into three figures and landed behind Redding.

“Your Majesty, you are the ruler, yet your Great Perfection Envoy attacked the people of my Four Divine Beasts Clan without cause. There should be an explanation, right? If the people of my Four Divine Beasts Clan offended you first, then the four of us should teach them a lesson and apologize to you.”

Lius, the White Tiger God, dressed in white robes, stood behind Ledin, his eyes flashing with tiger-striped light. He spoke calmly, offering an apology, but there was no respect in his eyes.

"you……"

Parhouse frowned, clenched his fists so tightly that his bones creaked, and was about to say something when Hope raised her hand to stop him.

"You want to explain, is that it?"

Hope stopped Parhouse, her blue eyes glistening as she glanced at the four divine beasts.

Reading and the other three did not answer, but simply looked at Hope with indifferent expressions.

"Shh! Shh!"

The next moment, two beams of light flashed in Hope's eyes, and Emmanuel and Fulham, who were hiding behind him, lost their lives instantly, without even having time to react.

"you!"

The White Tiger God Lius instantly flew into a rage, staring intently at Hope as if he were about to attack, but Redding's right hand blocked his way.

"You people from the Four Divine Beasts clan dared to steal what my envoy offered me, so they deserve to die!"

Hope met the four divine beasts' fiery gazes and spoke without a care.

As the oldest ruler in the world, Hope also has his own trump cards. The only ones he can be wary of are the four rulers of the rules; the four divine beasts are not good enough.

"Alright, provoking the Overlord is a capital offense. Now that Emmanuel and Fulhan are dead, can this matter end here?"

Reading remained silent for a moment before squeezing out a sentence through gritted teeth. His tone was much louder, and his expression turned cold, but he still managed to stop the impulsive Lius.

Although the four of them were not afraid of ordinary law rulers, firstly, this was hell, the territory of the destruction ruler, and secondly, Parhouse also had the strength of a ruler, so they were not confident that the four of them could deal with two at the same time.

"Keep your family in check, or one day the Four Divine Beasts Clan might disappear."

After Hope finished speaking, she waved her hand, and the power of the Supreme God carried Ninisha and Tilly away from the spot in an instant.

……

The divine plane of the water system, the vast sea.

"Shh!"

Nini and Tilly felt enveloped by an irresistible force, and when they came to their senses, they found themselves here.

"Tilly, take Ninisha down there."

Hope slowly sat down on the high throne and spoke in a calm tone.

"Yes, Lord!"

Tilly and Ninisha stood up at the same time, bowed, and left the room.

"My Lord, it seems that Redding and the other three won't let this go easily."

Parhouse stood not far below and spoke with some concern.

"They certainly won't let this go, but it's not certain who the hunter and the prey are."

Hope looked up at the distant sky, her expression full of confidence.

……

"Father!"

After Hope left, Gaia came to her senses and looked at Redding with bloodshot eyes.

Just now, her only son, Flham, died; her only grandson, Emmanuel, died, in front of her most beloved father, and no one could stop it. "Go back!"

Reading's face was extremely gloomy, and he squeezed out two words through gritted teeth.

With the surge of the power of the main god, the four divine beasts quickly led the people back to the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range and landed directly inside the main hall.

"Father! Why did you let that Water Element Ruler go? He was just a Law Ruler..."

Gaia looked at Redding with tears in her eyes, her expression seemingly filled with great grievance.

"Gaia! Shut up!"

Gasleysen was the first to react, quickly reprimanding his father. He then cautiously glanced at Redding, and seeing that his father's brows were furrowed but he didn't seem angry, he was slightly relieved.

Although Redding is their father, he is also a supreme god. As their children, they can enjoy certain privileges, but they cannot question their father's decisions.

"Father, I'm sorry!"

Gaia also calmed down a lot in an instant, and knelt down with a thud, speaking in a trembling voice.

"This matter is more complicated than you think."

Redding glanced at Gaia, whose eyes were red, sighed inwardly, and offered a simple explanation.

"Alright, brother, the children are just upset because they feel wronged. Please don't take it to heart."

Seeing this, Nemo, the chief god of the Vermilion Bird, tugged at the hem of the robe of the chief god of the Azure Dragon and spoke up.

"Alright, kids, tell me, what exactly happened?"

Bowen, the Xuanwu chief god, immediately changed the subject, looking at the children below and skipping over Gaia's argument with Ledin.

"Father, it's like this..."

The Xuanwu clan chief, Morey, stepped forward and briefly recounted the entire incident.

"boom!"

As Morey was speaking, the eyes of the Xuanwu God Bowen suddenly widened, and a beam of earth-yellow light shot out.

"You just said that the blood-red crystal containing five colors is a rare and wondrous object, the Five-Colored Blood Crystal?"

Bowen's voice rose several notches, and Reading and the other two instantly focused their attention on Morey, as if trying to see right through him.

"Yes, it's the Five-Colored Blood Crystal..."

Morey suddenly felt extremely uneasy and was at a loss for what to do.

"That five-colored blood crystal..."

Redding stopped Bowen from speaking further and asked many more questions in detail. After a long while, Redding waved his hand, signaling Morey and the others to leave. Morey and the others did not linger and left quickly, leaving only the four divine beast gods in the hall.

"Brother, that five-colored blood crystal is probably what we're looking for. Now it's in Hope's hands. What should we do?"

The White Tiger God Lius spoke first, the lines on his forehead turning blood-red, exuding an aura of power against his white skin.

"It seems we need to change our plans. Our next target is Hope, the Water Elemental Master!"

The Azure Dragon God, Redding, closed his eyes tightly, then suddenly opened them, instantly releasing a chilling killing intent.

"Big brother, are we going to fight Hope and Parhouse at the same time?"

Bowen, the main god of Xuanwu, spoke with some concern, pouring cold water on the anger of the group.

“With Parhouse with him, we don’t have enough confidence, but if they are separated, even if Hope, who is not a Great Perfection Sovereign, has the added power of a Ten-Win Streak Will, he cannot withstand our two Innate Divine Abilities!”

A blue light flashed in Redding's eyes, and he made no attempt to hide the murderous intent in his words.

"Since the Water God Plane achieved ten consecutive victories, Hope seems to have become a bit too arrogant. Since Hope dares to provoke us, let him know that even a ruler has to pay the price for provoking us!"

The White Tiger God Lius revealed a murderous aura, showing no concern whatsoever for the upcoming battle.

In the eyes of the Four Divine Beasts, although Hope had gained an extra power of will due to his ten consecutive victories in the interdimensional war, their years of research had already allowed him to use his innate divine abilities twice. Hope, who was not a Great Perfection Ruler and did not have the bloodline of a divine beast, could not possibly withstand their soul defense.

"Hope, I'm really looking forward to seeing your expression then!"

Redding gazed into the void, as if trying to meet Hope's gaze across the distance from the water-based divine plane.
