Douluo Dalu II: I, Huo Yuhao, join Sun Moon

DD2—Chapter 202: Reaction to Destruction

The Goddess of Lust was stunned. If she remembered correctly, Zhou Weiqing should be the human name of the current God of Devastation. Ma Hongjun's claim that the God of Devastation, Zhou Weiqing, was undercover? This was impossible!

In her impression, Zhou Weiqing had always been loyal to the God of Destruction.

"Do you have evidence?" the Goddess of Lust asked in a deep voice.

The God of Devastation is a first-level god, belonging to the Destruction Camp. If the God of Devastation were undercover, it would indeed be a huge hidden danger for the Destruction Camp. After all, undercovers transmit intelligence but also have the potential to stab in the back at critical moments, playing a pivotal role.

Ma Hongjun shook his head: "I can't produce any evidence. This is just my speculation. Believe it or not, that's up to you. When I was having dinner with Tang Hao, he mentioned that Tang San went to the lower world to save a man named Zhou Weiqing, and now Zhou Weiqing has become the God of Devastation."

"I've known Tang San for many years. With his personality, he would never normally go to the lower world to save someone unrelated by blood."

"What benefit would Tang San get from saving someone? If it's just to protect the inheritor of the God of Devastation's position, then it's unnecessary."

"You also know that the God of Destruction and Tang San have a bad relationship because of their differing views. So, Tang San wouldn't need to further strengthen the Destruction Camp—otherwise, he would be shooting himself in the foot."

For gods, once a God position is passed down, they can leave the God Realm entirely. Of course, whether they choose to leave depends on their will. Therefore, if the old God of Devastation stays and the new God of Devastation Zhou Weiqing also comes into the realm, the strength of the Destruction Camp could indeed be enhanced to some extent.

In Ma Hongjun's view, Tang San wouldn't have gone to the trouble of saving people just to pass on the position of a god—that was too much! Tang San had always said he had a premonition of a large-scale crisis about to break out in the God Realm. Under such circumstances, he would never abandon his position as a god.

The Goddess of Lust had a thoughtful expression. After listening to Ma Hongjun's account, she also harbored some doubts about Zhou Weiqing. However, she planned to report this matter to the God of Destruction to see what actions he would take.

Thinking of this, she said, "Then I'll leave first. I will report this to the Lord. As for you, I hope you hide yourself and don't let Tang San find out that you've betrayed him."

Ma Hongjun was full of confidence: "Don't worry. Tang San won't find out I've betrayed him."

The sky above the dark castle was covered with heavy storm clouds, and thunder rumbled from time to time, deafening.

Deep purple lightning rolled through the clouds like a dragon, illuminating the entire castle with a purple halo.

This was the residence of the God of Destruction. Most gods didn't even want to set foot in this place because it was filled with destructive thoughts.

For the God of Destruction, dwelling here was quite comfortable. After all, he was in charge of destruction. As long as he absorbed these destructive thoughts, he could grow stronger. Even the Goddess of Life, who was also a God King, didn't like staying in this castle filled with destructive energy.

At this moment, the God of Destruction sat on a throne, his expression grim as he looked at the nearby Goddess of Lust.

He had just listened to her report and learned about her conversation with Ma Hongjun. His previously good mood plummeted instantly.

All along, Zhou Weiqing had remained silent and worked diligently in the God Realm.

Therefore, the God of Destruction was quite optimistic about Zhou Weiqing. Compared to the seven original sin gods who constantly bickered, Zhou Weiqing's hardworking and uncomplaining attitude satisfied him.

Moreover, Zhou Weiqing generally performed well, which increased his trust in him.

If Zhou Weiqing truly was undercover, then he would lose another trustworthy god in this world.

The God of Destruction was silent for a moment and said, "You can secretly investigate Zhou Weiqing to see if he truly has any issues."

The God of Lust suggested, "My Lord, if Zhou Weiqing is undercover, should we eliminate him and ask the previous God of Devastation to return and fill the vacancy?"

The God of Destruction waved his hand and said coldly, "No need. If Zhou Weiqing is undercover, let him continue. This way, Tang San will not remain vigilant, and Zhou Weiqing can serve as a channel to pass along false information."

"I want to expand the God Realm," he continued. "But Tang San doesn't want that. This is the fundamental contradiction between us."

"If Zhou Weiqing is truly undercover, he will certainly act at a critical moment to disrupt my plans."

"Currently, the God Realm Center isn't in Tang San's hands. Given his reliance on it, he must want to take it back. I believe Tang San will act soon. When that happens, we, who are prepared, will give him a huge surprise."

The Goddess of Lust nodded: "My Lord, that's a good idea."

"Then you go and keep an eye on Zhou Weiqing. Report to me if he makes any moves."

"Of course, don't let Zhou Weiqing know about this, or many plans might fail. I will use the God Realm Center to conceal your whereabouts."

In the God Realm.

Clouds and mists drifted, glowing with radiant light.

"Huh, without the blessing of the God Realm Center, my cultivation speed has slowed considerably. How long will it take to upgrade my Sea God position to the God King level with only faith power?" Tang San sat cross-legged on the ground, feeling his situation, a trace of disappointment in his heart.

He always thought that the Asura God was too murderous, easily influencing his mind. Once activated, it was a burden to Xiao Wu and himself physically and mentally.

Even though the Asura God was stronger, he would prioritize the Sea God.

Only when he had no other options and needed to fight would he choose the Asura God.

"It's all the fault of the God of Destruction. If not for his aggressiveness, I wouldn't have lost control of the God Realm Center. Ji Dong and Lie Yan are two ungrateful bastards."

When they first entered the God Realm, he helped Ji Dong and Lie Yan. Yet, they chose to side with destruction during the vote.

As for the Goddess of Life, she was indeed unreliable. She chose the God of Destruction over him. He had thought she was an upright deity, but it seems she also harbored selfish motives.

After pondering for a while, Tang San decided he couldn't wait idly for death. He had to take action.

"The biggest difficulty is how to seize the God Realm Center. It's too useful."

He considered fighting the God of Destruction to take it by force.

"No, I can't beat him. Only the first-generation Asura might be able to fight him. I've trained for fewer years and am at a disadvantage in strength."

"Even if I could become a dual-god, my current Sea God position is only a first-level god."
