Chapter 0681: It Was Opot who Agreed
Opot felt his body shake as he stumbled back several steps!
He stared in disbelief at Keller high in the sky, his eyes filled with shock. He glanced at his right hand—just now, he had actually been pushed back by the counterforce?!
Keller, on the other hand, only swayed slightly after exchanging blows with him!
“You?!” Opot exclaimed, not knowing what to say.
Had Keller actually become a Divine King powerhouse?!
If Keller had become a Divine King, then?! Opot was utterly shocked, countless thoughts flashing through his mind. Suddenly, he thought of something.
“So it’s you!” Opot pointed at Keller, his eyes filled with anger, and a murderous intent surged once again.
Like Dison, he suddenly realized that the secret scripture lost by Tianlong Mountain a few days ago had been stolen by Keller!
Meng Lei’s Divine King aura was in Keller’s hands!
Back then, Qibuhai’s claim had turned out to be true!
It was ridiculous—he had instead believed Keller’s words, thinking the Divine King aura was in Huang Long’s hands and that the secret scripture had been stolen by Huang Long!
Opot could hide his anger no longer. Consumed by remorse, he regretted not listening to Qibuhai back then—then Meng Lei’s Divine King aura would have fallen into his hands!
As for Elder Luo He of Tianlong Mountain, who had been flung backward by the aftereffects of their blows and crashed into the palace wall, he was equally shocked as he watched the scene before him.
Keller, fighting against Divine King Opot, had even gained a slight advantage!
Could it be that Keller…?!
Luo He also stared at Keller in disbelief.
Keller, looking at the angry and remorseful Divine King Opot, ignored his murderous intent and said mockingly, “Indeed, it’s me, Opot. It seems you’re not completely stupid after all—finally realizing that I stole that secret scripture!” With that, he laughed triumphantly.
Hearing this, Opot looked at Keller’s smug face and listened to his shrill laughter. His anger surged uncontrollably once more. His face twisted into a terrifying expression, his eyes turning red as he stared at Keller as if wanting to devour his flesh.
“Was it Elder Keller who stole the secret scripture?!” Luo He finally understood the true meaning of Divine King Opot’s words, “So it’s you!”
But what Keller said next almost made Luo He pass out.
Keller continued to mock Opot, “Oh, I forgot to tell you—Dison and Saint Luo, whom you sent to capture me, annoyed me, so I dealt with them for you. Opot, you don’t object, do you?”
Opot’s eyes emitted terrifying, blood-thirsty glows as he clenched his fists, veins bulging. It was Keller who had killed Dison and Saint Luo!
Opot finally understood the meaning of the phrase “keeping a tiger as a pet only brings trouble.” Only, Keller wasn’t a tiger—he was a wolf, a treacherous scoundrel always waiting to bite back!
Suddenly, Opot roared, dashed forward, and threw his fists at Keller’s chest. As a Divine King, he couldn’t tolerate someone who had once been his subordinate—a lowly man—who repeatedly mocked him and challenged his authority as a Divine King! Even though this man’s strength had changed drastically now.
Keller had expected Opot’s furious attack and countered with his own fists. With a loud crash, both of them were pushed back. Terrifying energy surged around them, hitting the walls of the Heavenly Dragon Palace, causing continuous “bang” sounds. Fine cracks gradually appeared on some of the walls.
The Heavenly Dragon Palace was built using the hardest divine stones from the Chaos Divine Realm, so its durability was unimaginable. Yet, even under their combined attacks, it couldn’t withstand the residual power of two Divine Kings!
With another impact, both Keller and Opot stepped back several times. On the surface, they seemed evenly matched, but in reality, Opot knew he had an edge because he had launched a full-force attack suddenly, while Keller had only reacted hastily. In terms of true strength, he was likely still half as strong as Keller.
Though he refused to admit it, this was indeed the truth!
Keller had merged with Meng Lei’s Divine King essence. Back then, Meng Lei’s strength had already surpassed his own!
“Hehe, Opot, it’s my turn!” After retreating from their clash, Keller sneered. Then, he charged forward and attacked Opot.
Thus, the two began a fierce battle. The clash between these two Divine Kings alarmed the gods of Heavenly Dragon Mountain.
In a flash of figures, nine people arrived near the Heavenly Dragon Palace—the remaining nine elders of Heavenly Dragon Mountain.
“Elder Loch, what’s going on?!” One elder asked urgently upon seeing Loch fleeing from the palace in terror.
Loch, still shaken from escaping the palace, looked terrified. Only when he saw the other elders arrive did he calm down somewhat.
“It’s… it’s Elder Keller!” Loch stammered in fear.
Elder Keller?! The other elders exchanged glances, still not fully understanding Loch’s words. Suddenly, two terrifying forces burst forth from the Heavenly Dragon Palace. Then, the palace exploded, collapsing into pieces as two figures flew out.
All the elders of Tianlong Mountain were shocked and quickly retreated at full speed.
Lohk retreated the fastest and farthest.
“This, this is Elder Keller!” After retreating, they saw the face of the person fighting against their Divine King and cried out in astonishment.
Then they understood what Lohk meant by “it’s Elder Keller.”
Originally, they had come thinking that Divine King Leo of Fengjin Mountain or Divine King Livia of Yinfuxu Mountain had infiltrated Tianlong Palace, but now they realized they were completely wrong.
Besides the elders of Tianlong Mountain, those powerful chief gods of the guard teams also flocked toward Tianlong Palace.
“Miss, is that… Elder Keller?!” From afar, Sabrine pointed at Keller in disbelief and said to Vitya.
Vitya’s pretty face also widened in shock.
Seeming to sense Vitya’s astonished gaze, Keller, who was fighting against Opot, suddenly turned his head, looked at Vitya, and smiled.
In the sky, after a fierce clash between Opot and Keller, they stopped and glared at each other coldly.
After this intense battle, Opot gradually calmed down, and his anger and murderous intent began to subside. He knew that with Keller’s current strength, killing him was now impossible!
Dixon and Saint Luo could only die in vain!
Seeing Tianlong Palace crumbling apart, Opot’s expression turned extremely cold.
But at that moment, Keller waved his hand again. With that wave, Tianlong Mountain trembled, and a mountain range hundreds of millions of miles away from Tianlong Palace collapsed.
Seeing this, Opot’s expression changed abruptly, and he roared, “Keller, stop it!”
If Keller continued to destroy like this, Tianlong Mountain might cease to exist!
Hearing this, Keller stopped and then glared coldly at Opot.
“Keller, over these many tens of thousands of years, I’ve been good to you. How can you be so ungrateful?” Opot couldn’t help but shout. But just as he said this, another loud explosion occurred, as another mountain range collapsed under Keller’s strike.
Opot quickly stopped speaking and demanded, “What do you want before you’ll stop?”
“What do I want to stop?” Keller tapped his lips, then turned his head toward Vitya in the distance. Vitya felt a badpremonition.
Keller chuckled and said to Opot, “Actually, Opot, our common enemy is the Yellow Dragon! Of course, we also have someone we both love—Vitya!”
Keller’s voice reached every corner of Tianlong Mountain clearly. Hearing this, Vitya trembled and turned pale.
……
After nearly a month, Huang Long led the people from the Netherworld from the intermediate divine plane to Silver Fox Mountain in the Chaos Divine Plane.
Silver Fox Palace.
Divine Queen Livia frowned deeply.
“What’s wrong?” Huang Long asked, puzzled by Livia’s expression. His intuition told him that something must have happened during his absence from the Chaos Divine Plane, and something serious enough to trouble Divine Queen Livia this much!
Livia stared at Huang Long and sighed suddenly, saying, “There are two bad news!”
Huang Long looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
“The person who stole the secret scriptures from Tianlong Mountain has been identified!” Livia said slowly. “It’s Keller!”
Huang Long’s eyes flashed. “Keller?!” His expression changed slightly as he asked, “You mean, Keller?!”
Livia nodded. “That’s right. Meng Lei’s Divine King aura is in Keller’s hands. He has fully merged it with Meng Lei’s Divine King aura and has now risen to become a powerful Divine King—one even stronger than Opot!”
This news came as a shock to Huang Long!
After a while, he regained his composure and asked, “What about the other piece of news?”
Livia glanced at him with a strange look in her eyes. Feeling confused, Huang Long waited for her to speak.
“Keller is going to marry Opot’s daughter, Vitya!”
It was like a small thunderclap. Huang Long was stunned.
But it was indeed bad news. If Keller married Vitya, it meant he would ally with Opot!
“Did Vitya agree to this?” Huang Long asked. Suddenly, he felt a sense of loss, Vitya’s sad face appearing before his eyes.
Livia replied solemnly, “It was Opot who agreed!”
Opot agreed!
Huang Long nodded, understanding now.
He sensed another meaning in Livia’s words—that Vitya herself did not agree! But in the face of the interests of Tianlong Mountain, her resistance was futile.
“I could see how that little girl, Vitya, felt about you during the Armament Competition on Leipeng Mountain back then,” Livia said. “You should go save her.”
Huang Long looked at her. She had said those words sourly.
After exchanging a glance with Huang Long, Livia turned away, her mind in turmoil.
Huang Long remained silent and turned to leave.
“The wedding is set for a year from now, right here at Tianlong Mountain!” Livia said, watching Huang Long’s retreating figure.
