Chapter 700

The relationship between the Goddess of Love and the Goddess of Family was not good, and this was something that almost all the gods knew . Naturally, Sui Xiong would also have known long ago .

But he had not expected the relationship between the two of them to only be as simple as “not good . ” It was simply the worst!

At the beginning, the Goddess of Love was courteous and smiling, but the moment she heard that he wanted to invite the Goddess of Family to bless Leon together, her attitude suddenly changed . She raised her eyebrows in anger and spoke in a cold tone .

Sui Xiong saw her change in attitude and hurriedly say, “I know it’s toilsome for you to make a trip, so I’ve prepared a generous gift . It’s a beautiful gem that came from the inner space of the Main Plane . It’s definitely perfect for decorating your palace . It’s a magical object that has such great powers that it can make your Oracles even mightier . It also has a lot of Divine Power…”

“Please go back . I won’t go,” said the Goddess of Love as she interrupted him coldly .

“Ah? You don’t think it’s enough? I can add…” Sui Xiong quickly added .

With a loud rumble, the flames before him directly transformed into doors that were shut tightly, locking him out .

“Hey! Don’t be in such a rush to reject me! Let’s talk about it again!” Sui Xiong shouted .

However, there was only silence from inside the “Flame of Passion . ” There was no answer at all .

Being shown to the door and asked to leave, Sui Xiong stood at the doorstep for a while in a daze . He thought about it and finally decided—Today, I shall not be a civilized person! Negotiating is pointless? I shall use my tricks!

So he turned himself into a gigantic green jellyfish that was much bigger than the “Flame of Passion . ” Spreading all his tentacles, he surrounded the entire “Flame of Passion” and put on a “I’ll seal your house if you don’t give me your promise” stance .

Of course, this made the Goddess of Love furious . But there was nothing she could do .

Fight? With her skinny arms and calves, there was no way she could possibly win against Sui Xiong in a fight—if Sui Xiong were to get serious, it was highly possible that he could kill her within a second .

Debate? The priesthood and realm of the Goddess of Love did not contain anything related to wisdom . On the contrary, there was a “foolish” realm—the so-called “love makes fools” was not just empty talk in this world . Or at least, the Goddess of Love herself was indeed a tad bit foolish .

Seek help? She had contacted a few gods who had pretty good relationships with her, but when they learned the whole story, not a single one would lend a helping hand . On the contrary, they were quick to advise her not to be difficult and not to sulk over it . There were even friends who commented, “You are being a little unreasonable . ”

For Christ’s sake! When did they ever find her being unreasonable! Why must she go with that detestable Goddess of Family to bless this pair of newly-weds? The one who made this suggestion was the one truly being unreasonable!

Because of this, she quarreled with her friends . The quarrel only ceased when the Goddess of Joy, who had high prestige among this group of gods, came forth to stop them .

After putting the quarrel among the gods to rest, the Goddess of Joy looked at the Goddess of Love, who was still hopping mad and asked, “According to your priesthood, should you be sending blessings to a pair of lovers who have been in love with one another for many years are finally getting married?

“Of course, I should,” replied the Goddess of Love immediately .

“Since you should, then why should you refuse to do so because of some other reason?” the Goddess of Joy asked again .

The Goddess of Love froze in a moment of surprise . She was rendered speechless .

But still, she refused to relent . She was determined to show how unwilling she was to “work together” with the Goddess of Family .

To this, the Goddess of Joy was at her wits’ end too . She could only pay Sui Xiong a visit personally and try to dissuade him .

However, she had just opened her mouth to speak when Sui Xiong began complaining first .

“I’m just asking her to help bless my archbishop!” he said angrily . “By right, with Leon and Kalisa being in love with one another, plus their identities, asking the Goddess of Love for a blessing is not asking too much, right?”

“It’s not too much . ”

“I’m not just engaging in empty talk and being absurd by finding someone for help . So long as the Goddess of Love is willing to make a trip down and give her blessings, whatever conditions she has, just name it! Wealth and gems, Divine Power, anything . Even if she wants a demigod monster as a pet, I can also catch one for her!” Sui Xiong said loudly . “But you see, she won’t help at all, not even a little help! Don’t you think she’s being too much?”

“She is… a little too much,” said the Goddess of Joy . She hesitated for a while, and finally, she had to agree with this point .

“We’re all good gods, so we have to be reasonable in doing things . Even if she doesn’t like the Goddess of Family, there should be something she likes . Even if she doesn’t give me face, at least give my rewards some face, right? But you see, what’s this supposed to mean!” said Sui Xiong . The more he spoke, the angrier he got . White gas was spouting out of his enormous head with a roaring sound as though his head was smoking .

The Goddess of Joy was at a loss too . Of course, she knew that this time around, the Goddess of Love was being mean and unkind . But she was also helpless in the face of this Goddess of Love, who would maintain her obstinance to the end .

“Why don’t you go and have a talk with the Goddess of Family . Maybe if you manage to get things to work out on the other side, this side will also relent,” suggested the Goddess of Joy . Out of desperation, she could only suggest such a strategy to gain respite .

Regardless of whether the Void Mask was able to persuade the Goddess of Family, he should at least release his siege of the “Flame of Passion” prior to anything else .

Sui Xiong thought carefully and felt that this seemed to make sense . Was there any use in staying here to block the Goddess of Love’s way? He was still uncertain about the Goddess of Family’s stance .

Why not go over to the Family of Goddess’ place to sound her out first? Who knows, maybe things will go smoothly over there…

So with a flash of green light from his body, he turned back into his usual form, which was a planktonic jellyfish that was half a human’s height . Then, he left straight away after thanking the Goddess of Joy .

When he had gone far, the Goddess of Joy sighed and shook her head . Then she walked back into the “Flame of Passion,” whose doors were no longer closed .

She decided to have a good talk with the Goddess of Love before that stubborn little cow unwittingly got into trouble .

Where they could have originally become friends, she must become enemies instead . This was no longer a matter of being stupid or not!

Sui Xiong sped all the way and soon arrived at the Goddess of Family’s God’s Kingdom, the “Garden of Knots . ”

This God’s Kingdom was not located within the Sorrow-Proof Field, but neither was it far from it . If the distance was based on the gods’ journey by foot, it could almost be considered a neighbor . Assuming the palace of the Goddess of Joy, which was located right in the center of Sorrow-Proof Field, the Garden of Knots was probably in the suburbs . It would be a place where the buses that coursed through the ring roads would pass by .

Confronted by Sui Xiong’s sudden visit, the Goddess of Family also expressed her welcome . What delighted him more was that when he broached the subject of wanting to invite the Goddess of Family together with the Goddess of Love to bless Leon and Kalisa, the Goddess of Family did not reject him or fly into a rage right away . Instead, she bowed her head and fell into deep contemplation .

She thought it over carefully for a long time before saying, “Personally, I don’t wish to appear together with a bad woman who has no respect for family order or who even encourage the breaking up of family . However, there are many things in life that we must endure in the first place . It’s just like how couples usually have to put up with some of each other’s shortcomings and inadequacies after marriage, and then force themselves into a slight conformation . For the sake of fulfilling my duty, I can put up with it for a while . ”

Sui Xiong was greatly delighted and could not help laughing . He said, “You’re exactly what a god should be like . That goddess is simply way out of line!”

The Goddess of Family raised her brows and her face, which was very virtuous though not quite beautiful, revealed a doubtful expression . She said, “That goddess? You’ve met with the Queen of Fire (the Goddess of Love)?”

Sui Xiong nodded and recounted his experience at the Flame of Passion .

When she learned that he had blocked the doors of the Goddess of Love’s palace for several days, and only left for the time being after the Goddess of Joy’s persuasion, the Goddess of Family could not help laughing . She said, “It seems like you may have to continue blocking her door . ”

“Yes…” Sui Xiong said . When that obstinate Goddess of Love, who shut everyone out, came to mind, Sui Xiong could not help but sigh deeply . “How could that person be so unreasonable!”

Initially, the Goddess of Family wanted to say something, but then she shook her head and kept her peace .

As a well-bred lady, she did not wish to say things that were too unpleasant behind someone else’s back, nor did she want to make any vicious curse . Even in the face of the Goddess of Love, whom she abhorred, she would maintain the status quo .

“In short, I’m sure I’ll be there on time,” she said as she stood up to see her visitor out . “Please rest assured!”

So despite having left for less than half a day, Sui Xiong was back to the Flame of Passion . He transformed back into a huge jellyfish to block its doors again .
