After Admitting The Wrong God They Regret It - Chapter 11
Xinghui maintained his deity’s majesty all the way, bravely facing the wind until they reached the mining site.
It wasn’t until he got off the vehicle and stood in front of the open mining field that Xinghui, looking at the scattered and dispersed spiritual energies, raised his hand to touch his hair under the brim of his hat.
Very good, his hair didn’t stand on end. Even if he had to take off the hat later, it wouldn’t affect his majesty.
“So, this is the still-operating mining field, and the energy mineral resources are already scarce,” said Yuanyuan, standing next to Xinghui, his voice revealing no particular emotions.
“Due to being far from the cosmic abyss, the desolate star system suffered the most from the aftermath of the cosmic storm. Many demon clan members left the military and joined the recovery teams. Genetic diseases cannot be cured, only consuming resources. Energy stones are not abundant minerals for the desolate star system, and in these ten years, a considerable amount of the suppressing minerals for genetic diseases have been consumed. At best, it will delay for a few more years.”
So, ten years later, Yuanyuan began doing business with the Alliance, somewhat reluctantly putting on the ‘dog leash.’
“It was indeed consumed quickly. Is it only on this planet?” Hearing Xinghui’s words, Yuanyuan’s tone was unusually ‘gentle’: “There are other places, but they belong to different demon clan territories. I can’t just take people there and snatch them, can I? That would make us bandits.”
Oh, you’re not a bandit, you’re a big livestock.
Xinghui didn’t say anything more, carefully observing his surroundings.
Since his birth, he couldn’t see, and he suffered a lot. After three years, although he didn’t gain any faith, he accumulated a bit of meager spiritual power. This power allowed him to ‘see’ the spiritual powers of others in the two years after the Alliance, probably judging what the other party was doing based on their position and sound.
His statement about being able to ‘see’ the energy minerals that could suppress genetic diseases was based on the same principle.
The little deity was wearing a cloak with a hood, wrapped in fabric from head to toe, standing quietly in front of all the demon clan members, facing the scattered sunlight, casting a long shadow.
The demon clan members going down the mine were busy and orderly in front of him, going in and out.
It inadvertently created a subtle illusion.
The deity was quietly watching over his protected people.
But—
Wasn’t this kind of thought clearly meant to be humorous?
“Is it really feasible? Didn’t you say you could find new energy minerals?” Huanzi, who had been quiet for a while, couldn’t hold back again. With his arms crossed, he stood behind the group, avoiding eye contact, and his tone was sarcastic.
“Don’t just look around and then tell us there’s nothing here, right? Do we have to wait until tomorrow or the day after to check various places? Is this how you smoothly delay time to achieve the Alliance’s conspiracy? Oh, I forgot, Lord Deity still can’t see.”
Xinghui remained silent, standing still as if he had tacitly agreed, or perhaps contemplating what reasons to give in response.
This silence dimmed the hopes of the demon clan members, who were already somewhat hopeful.
And he stood there quietly, concealed under the hood, facing the wind. When the wind blew, he reached out to grab the brim of his hat. His appearance seemed out of place in the desolate star system, appearing lonely and desolate.
Those demon clan members watching this scene didn’t know what was happening, but they all had one thought in their minds.
He was accustomed to the loneliness and solitude of having no one by his side.
So he never hoped and never resisted.
All those actions were useless.
No one knew who spoke first.
“If you can’t find it, then so be it. After all, we’ve lived like this for so many years. Now we’ve started trading with the Alliance. Although the prices are a bit higher, we can still hold on for a few more years. We can figure something out by then.”
“It’s okay, take your time to find it. There’s no rush for now.”
“Don’t argue with our Legion Commander. He’s in a special situation, feeling anxious and irritable. It’s not intentional to target you.”
Huanzi widened his eyes.
“What do you mean not in a hurry? Is it unnecessary for our whole team to come here? You say you can’t find it, and it’s casually brushed off. I think you’ve also been deceived. This is the first time I’ve seen him! Boss, I really suspect that the Alliance has done something. I just felt something was off a moment ago. It must be the Alliance’s conspiracy!”
Huanzi’s crimson eyes were bloodshot due to the excitement, and there was a hoarse sound in his throat. His spiritual power was somewhat uncontrollably emanating, as if, at a command from Yuanyuan, he would capture this person who made all the demon clan members feel uneasy.
Agreeing with him, who had just been silent due to that strange feeling, immediately spoke up.
“Yes, if he hasn’t contributed, why do we have to keep supporting him? The Legion Commander’s statement is correct.”
“He’s only been here for the first day, and we’ve already had disagreements. It’s hard for me not to agree with the Legion Commander’s thoughts. After all, those people from the Alliance can do all sorts of filthy things.”
Yuanyuan’s expression gradually cooled down, and he didn’t directly intervene because he also felt something strange just now.
He tilted his head, looking at that tall and slender figure.
A dangerous thought of the demon clan’s brutality and cunning flashed through his mind.
Why not hide him and slowly study him?
Just at that moment, the figure of the little deity swayed.
By the time Yuanyuan reacted, his hand had already supported Xinghui’s back, helping him stabilize his body.
At this moment, everyone’s attention was on Xinghui.
Seeing him appear ‘fragile’ as if he were about to fall, almost everyone instinctively took a step forward.
Including Huanzi, who looked at his own steps in astonishment.
“What the hell is he doing?”
Xinghui was steadied by Yuanyuan, preventing the spectacle of a deity falling flat in front of everyone.
His lifeless eyes glanced over Yuanyuan’s face and subconsciously curved his lips.
But soon, the smile was fleeting and shallow.
He then straightened up, turning around and walking step by step towards Huanzi.
He was somewhat fearful of the demon clan, but he was a deity, determined to protect others, and he had his temper, not to mention he was not without pride.
The slender and fair fingers of the little deity reached out, grabbing the black military uniform fabric. He didn’t exert much strength, but the action was unexpectedly forceful.
Huanzi, caught off guard, stumbled forward a step.
The face hidden in the shadows remained calm and composed.
As if being directly called out for sarcastic remarks and suspected of being an Alliance spy didn’t faze him.
“The existing mineral resources here may indeed not be in this location, but they are very close. We can find them today. I have already seen ‘it.’ What I can tell you is that I never make promises I can’t keep.”
It was the pride and dignity of a deity.
So, even if they weren’t his followers, he was willing to use the power he had accumulated to help the demon clan. It wasn’t a joke.
Huanzi, regaining his senses, quickly stepped back and snorted.
Then Xinghui continued to speak.
“I also hope that you all can live well.”
Even if they came to the wrong star system.
In his eyes, the demon clan, not choosing a belief, shouldn’t suffer from the torment of genetic diseases.
Every race had its choices, and the cosmic storm was not caused by the existence of any particular race.
So being abandoned and hated.
This was not the price they should pay.
Of course, without belief, they had no belief. Could they stop eating gods and let him leave quietly?
And now things were a bit bad. He felt his hair standing up and pressing against the hood.
Xinghui withdrew his hand, casually adjusted the hood, and walked towards the car.
“Let’s go. Next, I’ll point the way.”
Author’s note:
Xinghui: I’m leaving my words here. Don’t block my way, let me go hide my hair!
Demon Clan: …What should we do with this slight fluttering of our hearts?
Yuanyuan: If no one minds, I’ll just take the opportunity to hide and study!
Good morning, everyone.
