Chapter 403 Goddess Of Wrath
Clang!
It sounded nice, it was a good start.
Zhao Mu put down the God Investiture Codex and carefully observed the girl's reaction.
The girl did not move, but the illusion around her began to change.
It was as if someone had pressed the play button again, and the still image began to gradually recover.
At first, it was 0.1 times the speed, and then it continued to increase. After a few minutes, everything returned to normal.
A gentle breeze blew past, and the sea of flowers on the island in the middle of the lake swayed. All kinds of fragrances assailed his nostrils.
This included the girl's body fragrance.
It was a strange smell that Zhao Mu had never come into contact with before. Just a whiff of it made Zhao Mu feel unbearably hungry, and his stomach began to rumble.
This made Zhao Mu very surprised.
Just a whiff of the fragrance could make a cultivator like him feel the hunger that he could only feel when he was a mortal. This was really a very miraculous thing.
This hunger grew from shallow to deep. Soon, Zhao Mu began to scratch his cheeks, and he desperately wanted to find something to eat.
He immediately opened his storage ring and poured out a pile of fruits and herbs.
They were all top-grade medicinal herbs cultivated in the Divine Soil's space. They could be used to make medicine, and of course, they could be eaten directly as food.
Zhao Mu grabbed a ten-thousand-year-old Purple Gold Ginseng and took a big bite. It was crunchy, sweet, and refreshing.
A ten-thousand-year-old ginseng's medicinal power was surging. If an ordinary person ate it, their body would probably explode and die immediately.
However, Zhao Mu ate dozens of them in a row. Not only did it not relieve the hunger in his stomach, but it also made him hungrier.
Zhao Mu did not care about anything else. He grabbed handfuls of precious herbs and stuffed them into his mouth.
He ate a few hundred kilograms of medicinal herbs in one gulp, but it still could not stop the increasingly intense hunger.
Zhao Mu's stomach was like thunder, and he desperately protested why he could not eat until he was full.
At this moment, Zhao Mu was like a starving disaster victim. He poured out all the edible things from his storage ring and swept them clean.
He ate a full 180 tons of food, but it was still useless.
Even the flowers and plants on the island were all picked clean by him.
In the end, the red-eyed Zhao Mu locked his gaze on the girl lying on the ground, sleeping peacefully.
A bold idea burst out of his mind uncontrollably.
He trembled as he walked forward. Looking at the petite and delicious girl in front of him, he swallowed his saliva crazily.
Just one bite.
Just one mouthful!
As soon as this thought appeared, it was like a maggot in one's bones. Zhao Mu could not help but reach out her hand.
Pa!
Zhao Mu's face was fiercely slapped.
It was none other than Zhao Mu herself.
This slap calmed Zhao Mu down.
As a human being, he shouldn't be like this!
Zhao Mu took a few steps back and turned around, gasping for breath.
Fortunately, his willpower was strong enough. Otherwise, he would have gone down the wrong path.
He immediately sat down cross-legged. His eyes were like gods as he relied on his tenacious willpower to wash away the evil thoughts in his heart.
The intense hunger brought about by the instinct to eat and the moral sense of being born as a human started a fierce battle in the depths of Zhao Mu's soul.
The two of them were in a tug-of-war, but in the end, Zhao Mu's willpower was stronger and she won.
Zhao Mu let out a long sigh of relief.
What a witch. She almost destroyed my Dao Heart!
Zhao Mu did not doubt that it was all because of the witch behind him.
The source was the fragrance coming from her body.
Zhao Mu stood up again.
He condensed a divine glyph and carved a barrier on his body, completely blocking the aura of the outside world.
But it did not work. The girl's body fragrance continued to enter his nostrils.
Fortunately, after the battle, Zhao Mu's mind was calm enough. Although the hunger rising in his stomach was still unbearable, at least he would not be controlled by desire like before.
Turning around, Zhao Mu looked directly at the girl's peaceful sleeping face and said, "If you pretend to sleep again, my sword will not be polite."
The Clear Sky Sword and the Highest Profound Sun Sword floated beside Zhao Mu at the same time. The sharp sword intent erupted without reservation. The killing intent was almost tangible.
"Don't, don't, don't …"
The pocket-sized blonde girl suddenly stood up and waved at Zhao Mu. She looked a little flustered.
"Let's talk nicely. We are all civilized people. It's not appropriate to play with swords."
"What kind of god are you?"
Zhao Mu put the two divine swords above the girl's head and looked at her covetously.
"I'll talk, I'll talk … My name is Nu Na. I'm the Goddess of Fury who controls desire and destruction."
Hm?
Goddess of Fury?
Not the Goddess of Time?
Zhao Mu looked Nu Na up and down and questioned, "A little bean like you is worthy of being the Goddess of Fury?"
Nu Na revealed an awkward expression. "Aren't I in dire straits? Back then, I was a great beauty with legs that were 1.8 meters long. Now, it's already not easy for me to barely keep my life under the seal of the Crafty Dao Barrier. How could I dare to ask for more?"
That was true. The god race was almost wiped out. It was good enough to survive.
"Why did you harm me just now? What are you scheming? Tell me."
Zhao Mu's eyes were wide open. His tone was fierce. He looked more like the Goddess of Fury.
"No, no, I don't have any thoughts of harming you. It's just that I haven't seen a living person in a long time. I wanted to play with you and test you."
"Test?"
Zhao Mu said, "If I really wanted to eat you just now, could you stop me?"
"I can't stop him, but I can run."
Nu Na giggled, feeling a little heartless.
"Err … Then tell me again, what's with the time freeze just now? You're the Goddess of Wrath, so how did you master the Law of Time?"
When Nu Na heard this, a trace of sadness flashed across her face.
"My temporal laws were passed down to me by Lai You. She was the Goddess of Time and an old friend of mine. She died in the battle of the gods."
Laws could be inherited?
This was an important piece of information.
"What happened in the God Realm in the past?"
"On the surface, the reason for the demise of the Immortal Race is said to be because of internal strife. However, I know very well that it's just a scheme of the Immortal Race. Since ancient times, the Immortal Race and the Immortal God have never been on the same side. Those high and mighty Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors can't tolerate us, the foreign races."
With that, Nu Na shook her head helplessly. "In the end, it's my race that's disappointing. In the face of an external threat, we didn't unite internally. Although the Divine King tried his best, those old guys all had ulterior motives and treated their inherited laws as treasures … Cough, cough, that's all I can say. It's not important whether you believe it or not."
Zhao Mu pondered for a moment and took out a golden god bone from his chest. "Do you recognize this?"
"The Divine King's bone … You actually have the Divine King's bone. Are you the candidate chosen by the Divine King for his inheritance?"
Nu Na was very surprised. She looked at Zhao Mu with an unusual expression.
Just as Zhao Mu was about to ask about the inheritance candidate, Nu Na suddenly knelt down and hugged Zhao Mu's leg. "Young Divine King, please do a good deed and help me. Nu Na doesn't want to be trapped in this damned place anymore. If you can help me leave here, Nu Na will respect you as my master and offer you my most loyal faith!"
