The God King’s sharp gaze fell on Zhao Rui, only to see the latter’s expression was perfectly composed. Zhao Rui stared back placidly, not a hint of fear or awe in his eyes. At this, the God King’s own eyes narrowed slightly.
"Since you are the God of Light’s senior brother, you are naturally a part of my Divine Domain. How about we split the God of Light’s position in two, creating a Left and a Right Bright Envoy? You and your junior brother can each hold one of the posts."
"God King?"
The God of Light was stunned, and his face instantly fell. He had never expected the God King to pull the rug out from under him like this, completely ruining all his plans.
Splitting the God of Light’s position would not only dilute his authority, but the two roles would also be in direct conflict. In the future, if one side became dissatisfied, it was inevitable they would end up trying to kill each other.
Moreover, this move also shattered his hopes of having his senior brother contend for another divine seat.
’This bastard!’
The God of Light was both furious and anxious.
"What, are you unwilling to share your authority?"
The God King said coldly.
"No, no!"
"Since that’s not the case, then it is settled!"
"God King..."
"Say no more. With you and your senior brother working together, the lineage of Light will surely flourish."
The God King chuckled nonchalantly.
"God King, you misunderstand. I don’t care about the position of the God of Light. My junior brother is doing a fine job."
Just then, Zhao Rui suddenly spoke up.
"Oh? You..."
A flash of electricity sparked in the God King’s eyes. He was clearly displeased that Zhao Rui had openly defied his command.
"I am, however, quite interested in the God King’s throne. I just wonder if the God King is willing to abdicate in favor of someone more worthy!"
Zhao Rui said casually.
"What?"
"How dare you! You actually covet the God King’s throne."
"Is the God King’s throne something you dare to even think about?"
The other main gods roared in anger.
"Oh? Could it be that the God King is afraid of losing to me? Or perhaps you’re looking for an excuse to refuse my challenge?"
As soon as Zhao Rui finished speaking, he waved a hand, and a thick bank of dark clouds instantly appeared, covering the entire sky.
Thunder rumbled from within the clouds, and flashes of lightning flickered in and out of sight. It was as if a great thunderclap was about to strike and a torrential downpour was about to begin.
The gods couldn’t help but be stunned!
This was the aura of an approaching storm. ’Can he control the weather?’
But that was just a minor Divine Technique. Even for a main god, it was hardly enough to qualify for anything!
Just as the gods were watching with shock and suspicion, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended upon the world.
"Thunder Domain, open!"
Zhao Rui clenched his right fist. Instantly, endless bolts of lightning rained down from the sky like a forest of electricity, covering the entire area around him in a flash.
"Is that Thunder Power? That’s the God King’s Thunder Power!"
The faces of the gods showed utter shock. Even the God of Light was stunned, an expression that quickly turned into delighted surprise.
Only the God King’s face was grim, thunder flickering erratically in his eyes.
’This still isn’t enough!’
Since ancient times, Thunder Power had always been a Divine Power at the level of the God King; no one but the God King could wield it.
’To think this guy found some trick to command thunder.’
The God King knew that if he didn’t act now, this upstart might actually plant some dangerous ideas in the minds of his main gods.
At this moment, only a swift and brutal suppression could stabilize his authority as God King and steady the hearts of his followers.
Thunder Power erupted from the God King, and he instantly transformed into a humanoid figure made of lightning.
"To blaspheme the God King is a crime punishable by death!"
With that, the God King conjured a spear of thunder and hurled it at Zhao Rui.
’Is this supposed to be a joke?’
Zhao Rui stepped forward, his Tribulation-Breaking Sword flashing in a brilliant display. As he recited a Sword Technique, a surge of lightning power enveloped the Tribulation-Breaking Sword Body.
"Thunder of the Heavens! Heed my call and eradicate this evil!"
Zhao Rui roared, and with a swing of his longsword, a measureless amount of Thunder Power instantly coalesced into a colossal bolt of lightning that shot straight toward the God King.
