Chapter 245 Falling Leaves Return to the Roots

Xiao Xi and the others waited anxiously and saw Xiao Ye's figure approaching from afar.

Gu Feng and the others erupted in fervent excitement, "King Xiao!!"

A group of humans from Blue Star frantically surrounded Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye felt their enthusiastic excitement and the smiling joy on his face.

Only Yuan Gun Gun remained, stiffly in place.

His lips were pale, and he saw Xiao Ye's gaze.

Yuan Gun Gun cleared his dry throat and couldn't help but ask, "Did you kill Divine Emperor Daddy?"

The entire She Tian had lost the aura of the Divine Emperor, and such a drastic change was easy for the gods to discern.

Xiao Ye's gaze fell on Yuan Gun Gun, and he walked over to the child.

The oppressive aura intensified, and Yuan Gun Gun didn't know... if he was also going to die at Xiao Ye's hands.

Yuan Gun Gun felt a chill, an unprecedented coldness.

He heard Xiao Ye say casually, "Yuan Gun Gun, you can choose to get along with everyone or remain a god."

Because Yuan Gun Gun's disposition was still young, Xiao Ye had no intention of killing the child.

However.

If Yuan Gun Gun chose to remain a god, he would not escape death.

This indicated that Yuan Gun Gun's heart was always leaning towards the celestial gods.

Yuan Gun Gun didn't take too long. He stiffly opened his mouth, "I... choose to get along with everyone."

Xiao Ye's black energy instantly entered Yuan Gun Gun's body, and the child showed a slight expression of pain.

However, Yuan Gun Gun dared not resist and let Xiao Ye take away the divine power.

How could Xiao Ye be at ease with the Divine Emperor's offspring?

He defiled Yuan Gun Gun's divine power, turning Yuan Gun Gun into an ordinary child.

"We will live together in the land of She Tian from now on."

Xiao Ye smiled.

Yuan Gun Gun looked up at Xiao Ye's smile, and complex emotions arose in his heart.

However, he could only respond naively, grabbing Xiao Ye's pant leg, "Daddy..."

Xiao Ye patted Yuan Gun Gun's head.

The entire She Tian was brought into the domain of the infected.

Any of the surrounding minor gods who harbored rebellious thoughts were all eradicated by Xiao Ye's black energy.

As for the gods who had no connection with the Divine Emperor, Xiao Ye left some to manage She Tian.

Gu Feng and the others were filled with excitement, seeing the vast She Tian becoming theirs!

"King Xiao has led us to the extreme, possessing... a world once unimaginable."

At this moment, the infected, who had endured countless grievances, laughed heartily!

The entire She Tian became theirs, and they would now become gods.

Xiao Ye destroyed the Divine Emperor's mansion and found a new residence.

Ye Qing Rou still wanted to meet Xiao Ye, but he refused all her requests.

Because after cleansing Tan Yue Ya, Xiao Ye had also obtained some new information.

The system told Xiao Ye, "Host, you have completed all missions. I can send you home now."

Home.

Returning to the familiar Earth from here, Xiao Ye had never imagined it!

However, the system had confidently guaranteed that it could link to Earth's space.

Xiao Ye sat in his room, frowning, "Then what is the truth behind my transmigration? I want you to tell me the purpose of my arrival in this world!"

The system immediately fell silent!

Darkness flowed in Xiao Ye's eyes. He had tested the system's tone long ago.

He had transmigrated into this world through a book, with absolute selectivity.

Xiao Ye had managed to reach this point and didn't feel that everyone was just a character in a book.

They were flesh and blood, the most real existence.

Xiao Ye wanted the system to tell him the truth!

"Now, I should be qualified to know, right?"

Xiao Ye's voice was low and hoarse.

System, "You can go and understand the truth. Your purpose in transmigrating was not that simple."

"It was to... complete a bet."

Xiao Ye's body froze as he heard this. He took a deep breath.

He understood that the system was about to reveal Xiao Ye's long-standing confusion.

"What bet?!"

As soon as the words fell, a light inexplicably appeared on Xiao Ye's body.

The system seemed to have activated some ability within Xiao Ye.

"Host, you can now ask my creator yourself."

Xiao Ye found his arm becoming transparent and gradually leaving the land of She Tian.

The system took Xiao Ye through to a new space.

Xiao Xi, who was outside the She Tian Gate, immediately went to his room when she could no longer sense Xiao Ye's aura.

Xiao Xi pushed open the door in a panic, "Ye..."

What greeted her was an empty room.

Xiao Xi's expression froze. Her gaze fell on the ground.

On the ground was the embroidered pouch she had given Xiao Ye. Xiao Xi picked it up, trembling all over.

A dark and gloomy space.

Xiao Ye was brought here by the system and saw a tunnel ahead.

"Host, proceed forward."

Xiao Ye's expression was calm, and he stepped forward step by step.

After passing through a long tunnel, he saw a man before him.

The man stood within the tunnel, playing chess at a table.

Noticing Xiao Ye's movement, the man looked at him.

"System, you finally brought him to see me..."

Xiao Ye smiled slightly, very gratified, "It seems I won this bet."

Xiao Ye frowned, his eyes filled with killing intent, "A bet? What did you gamble me for?!"

"It seems the tempering during this period has cultivated your disposition."

The man stopped playing chess, a gentle expression on his face.

He smiled, "I don't have much time left. I will disappear even without you acting."

Xiao Ye's gaze was fixed on the old man, waiting for an answer.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Mu Wu, a virus created by the Creator."

"The Creator created the world and controls the destiny of all people. I, this virus, influenced the trajectory of destiny and caused some trouble for the Creator."

"Therefore, the Creator tried every means to eliminate me. When they continuously nurtured protagonists to become powerful, they would kill the so-called villains, who are all incarnations of my virus."

"I have been fighting against the Creator. Finally, the Creator was also exhausted by me. When we were nearing our end, we made a bet, and that bet was you..."

As Xiao Ye listened to the old man's slow narration, he finally understood everything.

The virus had drained the Creator's strength. They made a bet, which was that the villain could escape their predetermined fate, defeat the protagonist like a virus, and rise to the top.

The seven female war gods were the protagonists chosen by the Creator, and Hao Duoyu was also one of them. They all had the Creator's protection.

The virus chose Xiao Ye to transmigrate from Earth precisely so that he could break free from the villain's fate and defeat the people chosen by the Creator.

Xiao Ye's eyes chilled slightly, and he let out a sarcastic laugh, "Being chosen as a challenger by your bet, should I be happy?"

"I know you have suffered many hardships along the way, but you don't need to harbor hatred towards us, because... both of us will dissipate into the endless expanse of time."

The old man's lips maintained a smile. He suddenly looked towards the other end of the tunnel.

"Creator, do you see? I won this bet against you."

"Finally, I won you... Hahaha..."
