Guifang Kingdom, atop the remnants of the Ancestral Temple.
"Is it just a coincidence?"
Gazing intently in the direction of the battle between Huo Ji and the Celestial Erosion Monarch.
Wuzhiqi pondered for a mont, then looked at the fully unfurled Map of Mountains and Rivers.
"And this bait, daring to consider a fish, aren't you afraid I might just swallow the bait whole?"
Slowly withdrawing his gaze, Wuzhiqi, bathing in the storm, quickly turned his attention to a place not far ahead.
"Rain Master, there has been no enmity between us, why go to such lengths?"
"The Tufang Clan is but a crazed god; even if I don't kill him, a Yin Spirit would naturally co to eliminate such a scourge."
"You are a Water God, and among them, a Rain God—this flood benefits you greatly."
"If you continue to entangle with like this, don't bla for being rciless!"
Wuzhiqi's voice remained calm.
But as he finished speaking, his four Dharma Protector Gods of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning appeared one after another.
They were all gods Wuzhiqi subdued during his journey south.
In terms of individual strength, these four protector gods might not match the Rain Master, who can leverage storms to reach the peak of divine power.
Yet once they unite, even an ordinary Celestial God might not be their match.
The nearly immortal Heaven-Howling Clan and the powerful Tufang Clan have perished at their hands, demonstrating their strength.
"If you had simply killed the Tufang Clan…"
"I would have felt heartache, but would accept having no such descendant."
Manifesting amidst the storm, the elderly yet upright Rain Master responded forcefully.
"But you shouldn't have, you tried to use Guifang Kingdom's 'Refining Evil Technique' to reshape his Divine Soul, turning him into your puppet."
As the Rain Master spoke, he stared fixedly at the still-operating altar behind Wuzhiqi.
Vaguely, the altar echoed with wailing cries, emanating endless resentnt and hatred.
This was indeed why Wuzhiqi had stationed himself at the Ancestral Temple of Guifang Kingdom.
He was employing Guifang Kingdom's "Refining Evil Technique" to remold the Tufang Clan.
Moreover, he was integrating the resentnt from the fall of Guifang Kingdom into the process.
"The 'Refining Evil Technique' of Guifang Kingdom can forge a Ghost God, which is extrely rare in the entire Great Xia."
"Now I intend to oppose that Red-haired Celestial Being, having an extra trump card is always beneficial…"
"Especially a powerful one that can directly affect the battle, I can never have too many."
Standing up unhurriedly, his speech barely changing pace...
Wuzhiqi maintained a calm deanor as if discussing what to eat next, his tone steady and instilling fear.
"This is another significant reason why I chose to act as that Celestial Being's vanguard before you."
Neither arrogant nor impatient, Rain Master gazed at Wuzhiqi with a tone unchanged.
However, all the gods and Spirit Monsters present heard the determination in Rain Master's words.
"The thods of live sacrifice, blood sacrifice, and offering are too cruel…"
"Especially for a tyrant like you who holds no regard for other beings, casually conducting blood sacrifices on myriad souls, slaughtering all life, is the true scourge of this world."
Unbothered by Wuzhiqi's rebuttal, Rain Master continued speaking.
"People say you stirred up this great flood in the Huai River area to oppose the Great Xia Witch King, unwilling to let your priests chant his achievents…"
"But as far as I know, Huai River is just the source of Huai River, where you are not the rightful god!"
"It has always been dedicated to the Huai River Dragon Maiden, a thousand years ago, a thousand years later—it's the sa."
If what had been discussed before was common knowledge,
Then Rain Master's next words would shock all the gods and demons present.
"Instead, it was you who forcibly defiled the Huai River Dragon Maiden, coercing her to bear you three sons…"
"When she could not bear the humiliation and took her own life, you ruled the entire Huai River area in her na, striving to maintain your tyrant status."
Slightly narrowing his eyes, Wuzhiqi stared at the Rain Master for a long ti before speaking in an unreadable tone.
"It seems you visited the upstream of Huai River?"
"What other news did you gather there?"
For so reason, as Wuzhiqi posed this question, the temperature of the entire Guifang Kingdom air dropped by several degrees.
The storm in the sky turned into frost and snow, while the stretching rivers brimd with icy mist.
"Not so much gathering, rather making a reasonable assumption."
Though his brows and beard were frosted over,
Rain Master's voice remained forceful, seemingly unafraid of provoking Wuzhiqi.
"After all, it's not just ; the Great Xia Gods are all speculating the true reason you incited this great flood."
"Until that Celestial Being reminded …"
"That which can stir such a mighty commotion among exalted gods, none other than hate and love."
"Hate?"
"Such a possibility exists but is very unlikely."
"A tyrant with a character like yours, expressions of hatred are usually very direct, so obvious anyone can see it."
"Only love can drive you to such absurd, unhesitating actions."
Before the Rain Master could finish, a bolt of lightning lit up the sky.
That lightning seed to signify Wuzhiqi's anger, making all beings tremble with fear as it flashed past.
"I don't know what you're thinking, nor do I understand your plans."
"But eliminating all impossibilities, I guess you're expressing your love for the Huai River Dragon Maiden in your own way."
"In a tyrant's way, a way that ravages all beings..."
Braving the lightning that nearly blinded him, Rain Master finally made his conclusion.
"Among your three sons, Huo Ji has always been your favorite."
"This favoritism has reached an unreasonable level, its rationale unknown…"
"Even your second and third sons cannot understand why you value him so much."
"So, when Huo Ji is in a crisis of life and death, what will you do?"
With a brilliant smile never seen before, Rain Master saw Wuzhiqi's changing expression and knew he'd gambled right.
"Now you can either stay here and keep obstructing or go save your son imdiately."
"This ti it's your choice to make, Wuzhiqi!"
Giving a cold glance at the Rain Master, Wuzhiqi indeed didn't engage further.
"Kill him, this ti do not hold back."
Leaving only these words hanging in the air, Wuzhiqi's towering figure vanished from the altar.
Correspondingly, the host of gods and demons, including the four Dharma Protector Gods of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, launched a full assault on the Rain Master at this mont.
