Under Ruo Ling's instruction, within a few days, the great sage Azhar and several other sages who agreed with his approach came to Liyue and arranged to meet Ruo Ling at Yujing Terrace.

In a bright room.

Ruo Ling is in a high position, with Ke Qing and Ning Guang standing beside her.

And under the stairs, there was a long table on the left and right sides, Azar and several sages sat there, looking up at Ruo Ling.

The faint coercion of the gods dissipated, filling the tightly closed and brilliant hall.

Azar and the others were overwhelmed by the powerful aura. Looking at the god on the upper left, instinctive fear surged in their hearts, and they didn't dare to breathe.

"Azhar, the great sage of the Sumeru Academy, and all the sages of the Academy, pay homage to the Holy Monarch of Jiuhua Yueming."

They stood up and saluted Ruo Ling respectfully above.

Seeing this, Ruo Ling waved his hands blankly and said, "There's no need to be polite, just sit down."

......

Chapter 268 Ruo Ling's Thoughts

After Azar and others sat down, Ruo Ling spoke.

"I have learned the situation from the confidential letter."

"I can indeed solve the disease of the World Tree, and I must have a long-term peace."

"But I'm a little curious, the little auspicious grass king is your god, why don't you ask her for this matter?"

Azar and his colleagues were not interested in the little auspicious grass king, and wanted to flatter Ruo Ling at this time, so they said:

"Hahaha, Shengjun was joking."

"In our eyes, the little auspicious grass king is not the god of Xumi at all."

"Little auspicious grass king, in the past 500 years, he has made no contribution to the development of Xumi."

"The reason why we kept her until now is just to use the belief in the God of Grass to stabilize people's hearts and ease the conflict between the rainforest and the desert."

"Really!"

Ruo Ling leaned on the seat, tilted her body, and supported her face with one hand.

She was expressionless: "But I heard that the little auspicious grass king has also done something for the people, right?"

"Ha ha..."

Speaking of this, Azar sneered again: "What did she do? To inspect the people's situation and appease the people? This kind of thing can be done by the Holy Order, it's really nothing."

"What we admire more is a powerful and wise god like Lord Shengjun."

"I see."

Ruo Ling narrowed his eyes slightly: "But the little auspicious grass king is Xumi's god after all, if I replace her, won't the people of Xumi object?"

"You don't need to worry about that."

"It's just stupid people. Under our deliberate suppression these years, the faith of the little auspicious grass king has become weaker and weaker. I believe that with the guidance of the Holy Order and your prestige, the people of Sumeru will easily accept it. Your."

"Moreover, the little auspicious grass king was born 500 years ago, but he is still weak and has no achievements. But you, the holy king, have been so strong that it is hard to match in less than two years since you were born, and you have made many great achievements."

"You and the little auspicious grass king, I think the people of Sumeru can still tell who is the truly outstanding god."

"I see."

Ruo Ling smiled faintly: "Yes, I agree to your request."

"I can be the god of Sumeru, and I can also help you save the World Tree."

As soon as these words came out, Azar and the others were shocked. They never expected that Ruo Ling would agree so quickly.

So they tried to ask again: "Thank you for your mercy, but we still want to ask, how will you govern Sumeru in the future?"

After Ruo Ling listened, how could he not know what these people really wanted to ask.

She said: "I am the god of Liyue, and I still support the rule of man in Liyue. After becoming the god of Sumeru, it is naturally the same."

"Xumeru, naturally the people of Sumeru should govern."

As soon as these words came out, Azar and others breathed a sigh of relief.

What they were most worried about before was that Ruo Ling would take away the power of the Holy Order after becoming the God Empress of Sumeru, but now with Ruo Ling's guarantee, they were relieved at once.

But while rest assured, they also have some concerns.

Everything you do has a purpose, and what a normal person wants to do must have a purpose and motivation.

If Ling is a god, her act of agreeing to become the god of Sumeru touched the order of the seven rulers in the world.

And saving the world tree is not easy.

Ruo Ling didn't ask for anything, and was willing to go through this troubled water for them without even wanting Xu Mi's management rights. Such generosity without asking for anything made them a little worried and uneasy.

So Azar tried to ask again: "Thank you, Lord Shengjun, for your kindness and love, but while you are helping us, is there nothing we can do for you?"

After hearing this, Ruo Ling couldn't help but smile.

She understood the meaning of these old things.

She said: "If you say that there is nothing that needs your help, that's not enough."

"You should have heard that faith and vows are one of the sources of power for the gods."

"Of course I won't help you for nothing. What I want is the belief in me from the people of Sumeru."

"I need you to do your best to promote me, so that as many Sumeru people as possible can believe in me."

"How? As long as you can do it. Then I can help you save the World Tree, and I don't need to manage the power of Sumeru, but I can protect Sumeru."

After saying these words, Hazard and others were completely relieved.

Their old faces couldn't hide their joy, and they hurriedly stood up and bowed to salute.

"Thank you, Lord Shengjun, for your kindness. We will do our best to satisfy your request!"

"it is good."

Ruo Ling looked at several sages.

"Then I'll wait to see your performance. I can sense the power of faith coming from the direction of Sumeru. As long as the strength of the vow meets the requirements, I will come to Sumeru."

"Yes, Lord Shengjun, please look forward to the good news."

"Then, Xumi still has a lot of things to deal with, so we won't be staying for long."

"Go." Ruo Ling calmly waved his hand.

This time Liyue and his party went smoothly unexpectedly, and all demands were met.

Several sages bowed again and left with smiles on their faces.

......

After several sages left.

Ruo Ling, who was in the high position, sat up straight, the original easy-going expression on his face dissipated, replaced by a cold and fierce look.

This silence made Ning Guang and Ke Qing feel their scalps go numb.

They could feel the anger in Ruo Ling's heart at this moment.

"The matter over there with Sumi, I will take full power to deal with it. You guys go down first."

Ruo Ling said.

Ning Guang and Ke Qing also left.

In the main hall, only Ruo Ling was left sitting on a high seat.

She said to herself, "Sister, did you hear the conversation just now?"

......

Chapter 269

"Sister, have you heard the conversation just now?"

In the hall, Ruo Ling's voice echoed.

"I..."

Nasida was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing what to say.

But Ruo Ling could feel the sadness from her words.

She was silent for a long time without speaking.

Obviously, what Azar said just now really stimulated her a lot.

After a long time, she opened her mouth, and the first thing she said was: "Ruo Ling, may I ask you not to become the god of Sumeru?"

Just hearing this sentence, Ruo Ling knew that Naxida's heart was in a mess.

She was also silent for a few seconds, and then replied: "Yes. But...is this enough?"

"My silly sister... how long are you going to endure?"

"But I..."

Nashida hesitated.

But Ruo Ling interrupted her.

"I know that for hundreds of years, you have been surrounded by circumstances that have made you feel that you are not a qualified god."

"But, sister, you are not the King of the Great Mercy Tree, are you?"

"I can't be the god of Sumeru, indeed, but is that enough?"

"Don't you understand? What they want is not a god at all, but the power to control Sumeru!"

"Even if I don't become a god, they won't recognize you! Because if you become a god, it means taking away the power in their hands."

"Even if I refuse to be the god of Sumeru, they will look for other gods in the future."

Ruo Ling kept opening her mouth to help Naxida analyze the current situation.

As far as the Holy Order is concerned, what they want is power.

And Naxida is the legitimate successor to the position of Grass God. Once she is recognized, it means the loss of power.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Holy Order, anyone can become the god of Sumeru, but only Nasida is absolutely impossible.

"The Holy Order doesn't need you, but it doesn't dare to abandon you."

"They are afraid that after you leave, you will accumulate strength and become stronger, and then come back to reorganize Sumeru, so they will keep you locked up."

"They want you to maintain the void alone. They pretend that this is the duty of the gods, but in fact they just take advantage of your desire to contribute to Sumeru."

"Yes, even if you are locked up, they are afraid of you. They are afraid that your divine power will increase as you grow, so they use you and let you maintain the void alone, so as to continuously consume your divine power. "

"Sister, wake up, the reason why you can't be recognized by everyone is not because you are inferior to King Dacishu, but because they never intended to make you a god!"

"I..."

Nasida was at a loss for words for a moment.

There are many reasons why she can't speak.

The sadness and confusion of being betrayed by the people, I don't know what to do.I am not strong enough to resist.

Her heart was in a mess, but there was no doubt that Ruo Ling's words moved her.

Seeing this, Ruo Ling continued to strike while the iron was hot.

"You've been working hard all these years, haven't you?"

"Although you are imprisoned, although you are not powerful, and although it is very hard to maintain the void, you are still working hard to watch your people and fulfill your duties as a god, aren't you?"

"Also, although you said that you can travel the world in your dreams, it doesn't matter if you can't get out."

"But actually...why do you take special care of Dina Zede?"

"Because she, like you, was restricted since she was a child, longing for freedom and seeing the outside world. You saw your own shadow in her, right?"
