Chapter 332 Challenge
"My pitiful brother must be facing mother's questioning and unable to answer it now."
Starlight, wasteland, and a girl with long hair. With an irrepressible smile on her face, she walked towards her kneeling subordinates step by step, stretched out her slender jade fingers to touch the demon's face, her eyes full of pity and arrogance.
"You have done well, my smiling follower. You have bewitched his servants, sealed his divine power, and severely damaged his pride..."
The bright silver luster fell on her soft cheeks, and the silver-haired girl couldn't help but chuckle. When she turned around suddenly, her sharp golden eyes exuded a crazy but charming murderous intent.
"Everyone says he is invincible, powerful, and unrivaled - my dear brother, as your sister, I absolutely do not believe in your omnipotence! -"
"You have your innate extraordinary talent, and I also have followers who love me deeply and are willing to follow me. You must be wondering where the magic to seal the divine power came from. Unfortunately, you would never have thought that such a brilliant magic is just one of the innate abilities of my loyal follower...
"My old enemy, my beloved brother, the god I hate to the core, let's end this tonight - Qianluo, brother."
The extremely suppressed laughter dissipated with the wind, and the smiling devil, who remained kneeling on the ground to salute, still maintained a calm smile, while the crazy and excited god did not notice it, and was hidden in the deepest shadows by him, with the corners of his mouth outlining a strange curve bit by bit.

"It seems that the person behind the scenes has already figured it out."
The narrow wind blew the man's dark hair, and the ends of his robe and hair fluttered in the wind. Zhongli sighed softly and watched from afar the young girl god who was immersed in her imagination of the future.
"Since I was sent here to observe accurately, I believe Qianluo has already made his own conclusions about the situation. So..."
When he looked back, his dragon pupils, which had turned into vertical lines, gazed into the vast starry sky. His calm tone remained unchanged, but the chilling and terrifying might climbed up his spine inch by inch, "It's time for you to show up."
The slow and steady applause echoed in the empty loneliness. As he walked out slowly, it seemed as if all time and space were infinitely stretched, shortened, and distorted in the profound light and shadow.
"Hehe..." The gentle tone without any emotion showed the calmness of the visitor, "You found me, it's because you have sharp senses. I don't remember how I lost to you in the real world-"
"This is Luo's memory. In the distant past, you couldn't defeat me."
Ignoring his "father's" hypocritical sympathy and concern, Zhongli calmly lowered his eyes, the rainbow in his palm slashing cold rays in the illusory space and time: "I believe in him, he will eventually realize the vanity of the past and return to my side."
"You want to gamble with me again?" A very light sneer came out of his throat, and "father" seemed to feel bored. As he retreated and disappeared, the tip of the gun that could pierce everything brushed past his blurry face.
As his pupils contracted, his gaze suddenly turned cold. He turned his head and stared at the god whose posture was so calm that it suffocated him. "…I gave an ancient magic to a demon god and sent him to follow his enemy to prevent his growth in his childhood."
"Zhongli... He is doomed to fail. He will not wake up." He murmured to himself, slowly extending his hand toward the god, his voice filled with subtle temptations and appreciation, "How about joining my army?"
"You are an important person in the world. I will take you to look down on everything, Teyvat, the throne of justice, and even him."
"You are his lover, but you don't have the strength to defeat him, so you feel aggrieved." He smiled as if he was in control of everything, and whispered "father" word by word. The infectious power in his voice touched people's hearts at all times.
"I will grant you a godhood far superior to his, and take you to witness a world that only gods can appreciate. You should not refuse...!"
The spear that pierced through the shadows almost instantly broke the harmonious atmosphere. The "father" who was intoxicated with the beautiful promise was slightly stunned. When he lowered his head and looked down, he sighed lonely, "You rejected the invitation of God."
"I promise you to follow me with him..."
"I have never heard of it before," Starlight described his divine attire stained with silver light, his golden pupils that seemed to glow like amber, his arms exerting force with firm and smooth lines, and his gilded dragon scales exuding sharpness as divine power emanated from them, "A god who was defeated by others dared to speak so arrogantly and boastfully."
"you…!"
"I'm sure he learned his intimidating personality from you, but you are far inferior to him in terms of bearing and character - a resonance that I share with you as a king."

Have you ever heard of...the technique of sealing divine power?
As soon as these words were spoken, even the freely flowing clouds in the temple suddenly became solemn and solemn.
Without saying a word, Shen Qianluo stared at Tianli's sudden silence, seemingly unmoved by the pressure he was exerting on him: "Why didn't you answer, mother?"
"...There is no such thing in this world..."
"Yes, mother." With an obedient smile, the boy uttered the most rebellious rebuttal. He looked relaxed, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him. "This is a magic that I witnessed with my own eyes. I was confused, so I asked for your advice."
The woman with long hair that reached the ground frowned slightly and raised her chin coldly, but her attitude was resolute: "There has never been such a magic, Ah Luo, can an ordinary trick deceive you who has the blood of heaven?"
The solemn eyes suddenly showed an imperceptible ripple. The boy shook his head slightly and said sincerely.
"Mother is right. How could your successor be deceived by this? It is just a common rumor. Since you have denied it, it is impossible. Please don't be angry about it."
He spoke in a serious and orderly manner, shaking his aho-hair, his slender fingertips slightly contracted. Shen Qianluo seemed to casually observe the other party nodding slightly, speaking majestically, turning around and leaving, without missing any fluctuations in his expression.
Unknown, unverifiable, and unspeakable.
A game that put all my judgment and decisiveness at stake...it seemed like I had won again.
"Heaven's law is also a chess piece that is very easy to fool." Muttering silently the conclusion drawn from an almost crazy gamble, Shen Qianluo curled the corners of his mouth and walked out of the magnificent and empty temple in a good mood.
Tianli, who should have known everything, was unaware that it was his successor who personally experienced the technique of sealing the divine power.
Heaven would summon and punish him for his extraordinary behavior, but the magic he kept silent about must have originated from an existence above Heaven.
“This kind of challenge is interesting.” Muttering with a chuckle, the boy completely stepped into the starry sky. The bright silver light of the galaxy sprinkled into his golden pupils, making the color even more sparkling and brilliant.
"Mother, I will definitely touch the existence that is higher than the laws of nature..." The almost wordless voice was scattered in the wind, stirring up soft and clear hair.
"Save you who have lost your past..."
"Mother……"
