Chapter 1338: Chapter 1323: The Filial Son Chapter 1338: Chapter 1323: The Filial Son “Ketiya, do you see that?”

In the Floating City suspended above the Earth Star Domain, the bored and satiated Dragon Princess Tiffany stared at the palace where Muria lived, her golden eyes whirling about aimlessly.

“I see,” said Ketiya, who was deeply invested in battle at the moment, but now joined her sister in gazing at their father’s palace, “Father, he went in with a goddess.”

“Good that you saw it, so that when the time comes and Father claims I slandered him and he denies it, you can be my witness.”

Tiffany’s eyes gleamed as she focused on the Floating City’s core control center ahead; she knew her father and the goddess he brought back were inside, currently in an unsearchable state,
“What are you planning to do?” asked the girl with the Titan Bloodline, eyeing her sister. She felt her sister, with whom she spent her days and nights, was even less reliable than her own father.

“What else can I do but take advantage? We can use this as a reason to ask Father for hush money.” Dragon Girl Tiffany elucidated her intentions with enthusiasm to her sister, “Overnight wealth is not a dream.”

“Don’t be foolish at a time like this. With your current status, do you really lack money?” frowned Ketiya.

“Lacking,” nodded the Dragon Girl with a definite answer. Then she elaborated, “Actually, acquiring money isn’t the point. What’s important is the process of gathering wealth and the joy of success at that instant.”

“…” Ketiya stared impassively at her sister as a Hammer wreathed in golden Thunderbolt silently appeared in her palm.

“Okay, I’ll stop. We should concern ourselves with the real matters at hand.”

Under the pressure from her sister, Tiffany, as the elder, quickly got her heart in the right place and entered the proper state of mind, her eyes fervently fixed on the palace ahead, “Father carries half of the pure Dragon King Bloodline, and the nature of dragons is… hmph, in truth, we shouldn’t be too surprised at such incidents. It’s merely Father letting loose his long-suppressed nature temporarily. It’s nothing major.”

“This might be a misunderstanding,” Ketiya spoke in defense of Muria, “You know Father’s character. Throughout the centuries, the only member of the opposite sex he has truly been close to is Mother.”

“You’re too naive, my dear sister. Haven’t you heard that phrase common among the mortals: There’s no cat that doesn’t steal fish, a cat that doesn’t is only without the opportunity.”

“That applies to mortals. You shouldn’t judge Father with a mortal’s way of thinking.”

“There’s not much difference, all the same. Previously in Elasia, with Mother watching, Father didn’t dare to misbehave and was well-behaved, but now in the Different World, Mother’s consciousness is still mired in her slumber, unawoken, and Father has already become a Deity. It’s not particularly hard to understand that He might want to do something during this time.”

“Perhaps you are overthinking. She’s just a new friend Father made, and coming back with him is just for a chat,” Ketiya suggested.

“Just for a plain chat, then why block us out? Why not open the entire Temple to us, huh?”

“…”
…
“Stop uttering such ludicrous words. I don’t want them to create any rifts between my daughters,”
In the Divine Palace, while Muria listened to his daughters’ conversation through the Luo Tian Mirror, he gazed more solemnly at the Divine Incarnation who had followed him back,
“Oh, so you already have daughters, but I don’t mind that at all. I can treat them as if they were my own,” said the goddess without the slightest self-awareness, her words devoid of any bottom line, sounding like a fawning sycophant.

“I mind,” Muria expressed his attitude.

“So, you’re rejecting my proposition? Won’t you reconsider? Don’t you think I’m beautiful?” The goddess confidently showcased her figure and appearance to Muria. Indeed, she could be described as a heavenly beauty, perfectly fitting the identity of a goddess.

“Indeed, you are beautiful, but I already have a partner, so I don’t need a second one.”

“Actually, you can have a second one. I don’t mind serving alongside another goddess because you look quite powerful.”

“As I said, I mind. So, let’s not bring this up again; it’s a waste of time,” Muria responded expressionlessly, although the goddess’s remarks were outrageously bold, his worldly experience was by no means small anymore.

“I was just looking to form a more stable alliance with you, based on the image we project to the outside. I think being husband and wife is very suitable.”

“…” Muria fell silent, seemingly having discovered something astonishing, “Are you a male deity or a female deity?”

“Either is fine,” said the goddess with an indifferent tone, whose pure appearance could satisfy any male creature’s fantasies of the opposite sex.

“When I first held the dominion of [War], I presented a male deity form similar to yours. Later, I acquired [Victory], [Hope], and then I discovered that the image of a female divine being is more suitable for spreading faith.

Eventually, the form I showed to mortals is the one you see now, and I’ve found that quite a few male deities are very interested in this appearance. Don’t you feel the same?”

“No, I’m not like you,” Muria firmly declared to the deity who had transformed from male to female, “My current form is my original form.”

“Tsk, you really look good, I quite like you, won’t you really reconsider?”

“If you make similar propositions again, from now on, we will be mortal enemies sworn to death,” Muria warned.

“Alright, let’s get to the point. Regarding my father, the Lord of the Mountains… Although his main divinity is Earth, he also controls the [Sun] divinity, which I believe you are in need of, right?”

“Hmm,” Muria, whose outward label was the Solar Divine Power, of course, wouldn’t deny this, “So, what do you mean by letting me have more [Sun] authority? Are you saying you could persuade your father to hand over his share of divinity to me?”

“Of course not, how could that old guy ever listen to me?”

“So, are you making a fool of me?”

“Of course not. Although I can’t make him give up the [Sun] divinity willingly, when he falls, you can collect it, right?”

“Falls…” Hearing this, Muria’s expression became incredibly vivid. He now understood what the goddess, who had stopped him on his way and said she could secure more [Sun] divinity for him, really wanted from him.

Patricide of her own divine father!
