The Whale in the Mountains

Chapter 753 The Approval of the Seven Gods

So, every opportunity to enter the Seven Gods Painting is extremely precious.

This is also the reason why Xiao Hei and Bai Guangda have not been able to enter the Seven Gods Painting for trials.

"Xu Eagle King, Golden Lion King, you have both entered the Seven Gods Painting. Guess how many gods my Brother Chen can gain the approval of in the painting."

Chen Xiao had just entered the Seven Gods Painting and it was unknown how long it would take for him to come out, so Tu Shan Che started the topic in a casual manner.

"Two."

The Golden Lion King thought for a moment and gave his answer.

"Two? That's too few, right? Golden Lion King, how many gods did you gain the approval of back then?"

Xiao Hei asked with a dissatisfied look.

"Three."

The Golden Lion King replied in a flat tone, without any emotional color.

"Tch..."

Xiao Hei scoffed at this answer, "Even you can gain the approval of three gods, how could my father be inferior to you?"

"Hehe..."

The Golden Lion King didn't react, but Xu Eagle King chuckled twice, "Black Fox King, you don't know this, our demon race has worshiped the seven gods since childhood, and has already formed a bond with the seven gods, laying the foundation for obtaining the power of the seven gods. But before today, Mr. Chen probably didn't even know what the seven gods were, so how could he possibly gain the approval of many gods?"

"Gaining the approval of the seven gods is not as easy as you think. What the seven gods approve of is not strength!"

Hearing this, Xiao Hei frowned: "Then what do the seven gods approve of?"

"Uh, this..."

Xu Eagle King couldn't answer.

Xiao Hei laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, Xu Eagle King, I see you don't even know what the seven gods approve of, right? So what you said before about bonds and worshiping since childhood may be meaningless and have no effect on the approval of the seven gods at all."

"You little devil!"

Xu Eagle King was a little embarrassed by Xiao Hei's laughter and scolded, "If it's meaningless, why would Demon Venerable ask you to be closer to the seven gods before daring to let you enter the Seven Gods Painting? Isn't it because he's afraid that you'll gain nothing after entering and waste resources for nothing!"

Now it was Xiao Hei's turn to be speechless, because his foster father had indeed told him so.

However, at this moment, a voice full of doubt and a hint of resentment suddenly sounded: "If Xiao Hei can't enter the Seven Gods Painting for this reason, then what about me? I have worshiped the seven gods since childhood. Logically speaking, I should have gained the approval of the seven gods long ago. Demon Venerable, why?"

"Cough cough..."

Demon Venerable coughed twice and did not answer the question directly, but explained, "The so-called approval of the seven gods is actually seven qualities, namely courage, loyalty, honesty, wisdom, kindness, light, and purity."

After speaking, Demon Venerable gave Bai Guangda a meaningful look, as if to say, now you understand, right?

However, Bai Guangda had no idea what was going on in his heart and scratched his head, saying, "I have all seven of these qualities. It can be said that they are a perfect fit..."

Xiao Hei thought to himself that among these seven qualities, Bai Guangda was only slightly related to loyalty, and the other six had nothing to do with him at all!

Letting him enter the Seven Gods Painting is simply... a waste of resources!

"Okay, let's get back to the topic."

Demon Venerable looked at Xu Eagle King with burning eyes, "Xu Eagle King, you haven't said your opinion yet. How many gods do you think my Brother Chen can gain the approval of?"

"It's hard to say."

Xu Eagle King shook his head.

"Tell the truth!"

Demon Venerable said in a deep voice.

"Alright then."

Xu Eagle King had a helpless expression, as if saying 'you forced me to say this', "In my opinion, Mr. Chen won't be able to gain the approval of even one god. As for the reason, I've already said it before, he hasn't established a bond with the seven gods, and it's difficult for the seven gods to have any approval of him."

"Hehe..."

Tu Shan Che shook his head with a smile, "Xu Eagle King, you have a pair of unique sharp eyes in the world, but there are some things that you just can't see through."

"In my opinion, my Brother Chen can at least gain the approval of three gods, and it's not impossible to gain the approval of four gods!"

As soon as Tu Shan Che finished speaking, Xu Eagle King shook his head and retorted, "That's impossible..."

Before he could explain the reason, Xiao Hei suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Hey? Look, what's going on?"

Everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction of Xiao Hei's finger, only to see that a part of the Seven Gods Painting had lit up.

"Red... represents the fearless God of Fire. My Brother Chen has already gained the approval of the God of Fire, very good, very good!"

Tu Shan Che stroked the goatee on his chin, in a great mood.

It is not easy to gain the approval of the God of Fire.

Everyone can flaunt themselves as brave and fearless, but how many people can truly do it?

It's like Bai Guangda, who is clearly not related to being wise and martial, but has no self-awareness at all.

"He gained the approval of the God of Fire so quickly? Hmm... Mr. Chen is really amazing!"

Xu Eagle King said lightly, with a hint of shame in his eyes.

After all, just now, he had confidently said that Chen Xiao might not be able to gain the approval of even one god.

And as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Hei shouted again, "It's lit up again, it's lit up again! This time, it's green!"

In fact, everyone saw it without him saying so. Another part of the Seven Gods Painting lit up.

"Uh, the approval of the Grass God, who represents purity, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it."

Demon Venerable Tu Shan Che shook his head with a smile, with a bit of playfulness on his face.

Not only him, but everyone had a very strange expression on their faces.

Even Xiao Hei, Chen Xiao's loyal supporter, was no exception.

He muttered in a low voice: "I really didn't expect that my father is actually a pure person. This, this is really..."

He was at a loss for words and didn't know how to describe his current mood.

And Xu Eagle King's focus was not on 'purity'.

"In less than five minutes, he has gained the approval of two gods in a row. Demon Venerable, even compared to you back then, this achievement is not inferior, right?"

Xu Eagle King said provocatively.

You are optimistic about Chen Xiao, so if Chen Xiao surpasses you, will you still be optimistic about him?

"Hahahaha, indeed!"

Tu Shan Che laughed frankly, "If you didn't remind me, I really wouldn't have noticed this. It took me a full half an hour to gain the approval of the first of the seven gods back then. Brother Chen used less than one-tenth of my time. He's really amazing, amazing!"

Xu Eagle King's face was about to collapse. Damn it, this trick is not working either. Doesn't Demon Venerable feel jealous at all?

Then he suddenly remembered that it seemed to have taken him half a day to gain the approval of the first god back then.

This Chen Xiao is really a genius!
