The Growth of a God
Chapter 775 - 9: Hua She’s Resolve
Fallen Area, Divine Treasure Vault.
After entrusting the control of the Vast Heaven Mirror to the Celestial Tao System, Li Hao suddenly turned his head and asked the Hua She beside him, who looked tired.
"Speaking of which, don’t you often complain that I’m biased?"
"I recently met a Sun God who said they have a way to enhance your power. Are you interested in trying it out?"
Hua She lifted her snake head with a bewildered expression and thought for a while before confirming she hadn’t heard wrong.
"Ah! Great God of Gods!"
"You’ve finally thought of enhancing my power!"
Whether it was Li Hao’s illusion or Hua She’s acting skills had improved...
Li Hao even felt he heard a hint of sobbing in Hua She’s voice, which made a few black lines appear on his forehead.
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
"I thought you weren’t that concerned about power enhancement!"
Li Hao was speaking truthfully.
Because in the Mountain and Sea Realm, any god who cared about power pursued ways to enhance their power limits.
Only Hua She seemed never to have actively pursued power enhancement from the start.
The only significant power enhancement she experienced was when Li Hao made her his Apostle, in charge of the sun in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
"Who wouldn’t care about power? It’s just that you’re not attentive to me!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"Even if you divided a ten-thousandth of your fondness for Yao Xin to me, I wouldn’t be relegated to a second-rate god now, would I?"
Hua She’s words were indeed exaggerated, but admittedly, they did hold some truth.
The Mountain and Sea Realm is no longer the desolate place it once was.
Both the growth of Mountain and Sea Civilization and the return of the Old Gods of Mountains and Seas have significantly enhanced its foundational power.
In contrast, Hua She, with merely Main God Level power...
If not for her identity as the Creator’s Apostle, she probably wouldn’t even make it into the second tier.
Not to mention, just the Supreme Gods of the Mountain and Sea Realm now include both Yao Xin and the Nine Heavens Profound Lady.
Beneath these two Supreme Gods, which battle-hardened and combat-skilled Main Gods aren’t stronger than the gradually declining Hua She?
"It’s clearly you being lazy..."
Feeling somewhat guilty, Li Hao averted his gaze and suddenly realized he might indeed have been neglecting Hua She.
"If you even put half the energy you spent on ’Civilization Game’ towards enhancing your power, you’d be the strongest Main God below the Supreme Gods, wouldn’t you?"
When he got to this point, Li Hao’s voice naturally lowered.
After all, claiming the title of "Strongest Main God" isn’t something that can be achieved by mere bragging.
Li Hao thought for a long time but couldn’t come up with any qualification Hua She might have to compete for the "Strongest Main God" title.
This made it difficult even to speak comforting words to her.
"You see, even you’ve realized it!"
"I’m your first Divine, but to outsiders, it might seem like I’m just some stray you picked up!"
Staring at Li Hao with an incredibly resentful look, Hua She didn’t forget to throw shade at Huo Dou beside her as she spoke.
Fortunately, Huo Dou didn’t notice Hua She’s provocation and continued snoozing in his exclusive "doghouse."
"If we’re counting Apostles, the first Apostle is Ji Meng..."
"If we’re counting Gods, Yao Xin is the first God under my command..."
"The position of the first Divine certainly doesn’t fall to you, does it?"
Ignoring Hua She’s resentful gaze, Li Hao quickly changed the subject.
"Just tell me if you want to enhance your power. This is a rare opportunity."
"But I must warn you in advance, opportunity often comes with danger."
"If you really want to enhance your power, you’ll inevitably face danger alone. Think carefully before answering me."
Watching Li Hao’s gradually solemn face, Hua She’s expression also started to become reserved.
Li Hao perhaps indeed neglected Hua She’s power enhancement to some extent.
But it cannot be denied that this has been Hua She’s happiest and most carefree time.
As the most favored daughter of the Winged Serpent God, Hua She had never lived so comfortably and lavishly, even under her Father God’s command.
Because back then, Hua She was still striving to become a God, enduring much hardship.
When she finally became a God, the Winged Divine Serpent was on the verge of demise, unable even to send her away from the Fallen Area.
It wasn’t until she met Li Hao that she no longer had to struggle for survival.
Li Hao’s preference for Hua She may not have matched that for Yao Xin, but his fondness definitely exceeded that for an average God.
The Supreme Treasure left by the Winged Serpent God to Hua She...
Li Hao tactfully never touched or even inquired about it.
The Civilization Game, which ordinary gods cherished immensely...
In Hua She’s hands, it was more like a "computer" connecting the All Heavens and Myriad Realms than a Divine Artifact capable of altering fate.
Even the duties that should traditionally be fulfilled by the Sun God.
Li Hao specially found Taiyi and the Little Golden Crow, these two Sun Lords, to substitute her.
From Hua She’s perspective, she could continue living in such carefree abandon.
As long as Li Hao was alive, Hua She didn’t need to concern herself with power enhancement, forever remaining the cheerful and carefree Sun God of the Mountain and Sea Realm.
"I want to give it a try!"
Moments later, Hua She lifted her snake head again and stated with determination.
"Are you really decided?"
Gently lowering his head, Li Hao gazed intently at Hua She across from him.
"Yes, I’ve made up my mind!"
Meeting Li Hao’s scrutinizing gaze, Hua She declared resolutely.
"Perhaps my power seems insignificant to you; perhaps my existence can’t impact your grand future plans..."
"But if the future truly requires my power, I don’t want to become a burden to you then."
"Experiencing what happened to my Father God even once is enough."
Despite the serious atmosphere, Hua She suddenly broke into a mischievous smile at this moment.
"Of course, if a crisis really does occur in the future, I know my power won’t be needed by you."
"So by then I can escape without worry, ensuring at least your efforts won’t go entirely to waste, right?"
"Who knows, if that day really comes, I might even be the chance for your comeback, right?"
Also smiling, Li Hao merely shook his head gently, extending his arm towards Hua She without offering any definite response.
"Yes, I’m looking forward to that day, my future savior."
Crawling up Li Hao’s arm to his shoulder, Hua She affectionately nuzzled his cheek and whispered.
"Great God of Gods, I am ready!"
