"Well then, let's get married! From this moment on, you're my husband! This is a settled matter, no objections allowed!" Leila said with her hands on her hips, in a commanding tone.

  "Shrimp rice?"

  Heavens, it's thundering! Can't be calm about this!

  Leiwen is a worldly person! He has met many gods and goddesses, and has also interacted with not a few mischievous and chaotic gods. Oh, he has never seen such a messy situation before.

  What's even more frightening for Raven is yet to come.

  Suddenly, a strange divine power surged, and in the darkness, it seemed that countless believers' last blessings could still be heard. A few seconds later, the mist that had been entwining Leila dispersed, and a very pretty... probably only about ten years old blonde-haired blue-eyed little loli burst out of the tall misty female silhouette, seemingly wanting to pounce on Raven, but due to unadaptation to this body or other technical reasons, she fell straight to the ground one meter away from Raven's body.

  With both hands stretched out straight, Xiao Loli's face collided violently with the ground.

  "Waaaahhhhhh!" The little loli in a Gothic long dress wailed loudly.

  Raven was stunned, and Sains was equally dumbfounded.

  I've seen reckless people before, but never anyone as reckless as this.

  Levin had also participated in the hunt for this form of deity - this was when the deity abandoned its divine kingdom in the divine realm and transferred all its power into a physical body on the mainland of Azeroth, commonly known as the Saint Form.

  The gods will not arrive until the mountains are exhausted and the waters are drained. It is absolutely impossible to adopt this form at a time when one must make a desperate effort to turn things around.

  It's very simple, in the Divine Realm, as long as the worshipers aren't all dead or there is still divine power left, the deity can repair all their injuries, including fatal ones, by consuming divine power or sacrificing the worshipers.

  Giving up godhood means giving up immortality and all previous divine power accumulation.

  In this form, the deity can still receive the faith of the followers on the main plane and use limited divine power. However, the risk of falling is greatly increased.

  In the previous life until the world of Ao Creation began to collapse, the divine realm collapsed, and a large number of gods who were aware of their mistakes hastily transformed into holy forms and descended onto the continent of Ao Creation in order to rebuild the heavenly kingdom on earth.

  Generally speaking, saints can possess half of the divine power of a deity.

  In Raven's impression, saints are basically all at the Saint Domain stage.

  Laila is such a little loli... so weak!

  Based on the aura, it should be a legendary rank that is barely holding on. It's easy to imagine how dire Laila's situation is. Raven can already envision a small, tattered divine kingdom. Similarly, it can be inferred that before transforming into a saint form, Laila's strength was not even comparable to many demigods.

  However, turning into a saint also has its benefits. This direct transformation is based on the residual power of the entire divine country being digested. The sudden disappearance of the divine country can also catch those plotters off guard, and at least for a short time, Laila's opponents will be unable to track her down.

  "My groom, why aren't you holding me!?" Covering her nose, Leila stared at Raven with a pair of gemstone-like big eyes.

  Lei Wen suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to laugh and struggled hard to suppress it.

  "Don't laugh!" Layla shouted loudly, but her voice was very cute though.

  "Hmph..." Someone couldn't help it.

  "You scoundrel! How can you be a groom!" Little Loli was furious, revealing her small tiger teeth.

  "Hey, get it straight, I never agreed to be your groom from the start. I just asked 'what price are you willing to pay for a territory like this?'"

  "You... you... you're too much! I abandoned my thousand-year-old pride to marry down to you, and yet you still won't agree?"

  Lei Wen is also speechless, Laila has been forcing him to marry her and still talking about being reserved.

  Levin turned his head towards Sains and said, "Didn't Goddess Laila used to be a little girl before?"

  Seins didn't know how to respond, and finally said: "Although my master was on guard against the thieving god Maesker, he was still ambushed by Shirek and suffered serious injuries. In order to reduce consumption, his body size has been reduced."

  Lei Wen was speechless: Isn't Laila's IQ also degenerating to a little loli level?

  "Hey, hey, what's wrong with you? Answer me! Why aren't you responding?" Little Loli waved her small fist.

  He sneered and asked, "You clearly know that a fallen god with complete divine authority will attract countless covetous eyes, people who want your life can line up from the west coast to the east coast of the Azeroth continent. How dare you come and try to lure me in? Do you know? Previously, just for a mere dog-headed god's divine fragment, it attracted a joint attack by 10 legendary powerhouses. What's your situation now, isn't it clearer to you than to me?"

  Little Loli Leila stiffened and stopped talking.

  Levin looked and secretly smiled: I was the one who played psychological warfare with Lady Shale back in the day. Think you can trap me? Laila, you're still too tender.

  At this time, a door suddenly opened in the space, and an old woman dressed as a pastor, at least 90 years old, walked in.

  "Sorry, Raven, whether it was Sains' harassment or our lord's marriage, all of this was my idea. If you want to blame someone, blame me." The old priest knelt down deeply and kowtowed to apologize to Raven.

  Lei Wen's body swayed slightly before she finally knelt down.

  "Wouldn't you introduce yourself?"

  The old woman shook her head: "It's better not to mention the name of a dying person."

  Lavin smelled a thick scent of death on her, a kind of life that was about to end, and even the internal organs began to emit a stench similar to that of a corpse. In the end, Lavin nodded slightly, showing respect for the old man.

  "My lord may be a bit eccentric, but he's a kind and simple deity. Having served him for so many years, I truly don't want to see him fall before my eyes. We've discussed this for a long time, and in the end, we concluded that our only chance lies with you, Raven God. If we were to surrender to any other deity or power, we would ultimately be consumed... Ah, Raven God, since you have a way, just speak directly. What do you want to gain? As long as it's something we can give, we'll give it to you."

  Lei Wen closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, there was only calmness and wisdom in his eyes: "I save you, the risk is too great. After all, at least four gods of the Phantom Shadow God's job are not easy to deal with. As an ordinary person, I take such a risk, I ask for corresponding compensation."

  The little loli bit her bright red lips and finally spoke up: "You say."

  "I guarantee that I will not betray you or devour your divinity, and I will do my best to ensure the safety of the Shadow Church's followers. In return, I want you, Laila, to pledge half of your soul as collateral in front of the messenger of the Contract God, and sign a contract of fealty with me. If I become a god in the future, you will become my subordinate deity. If I die prematurely without it being your fault, the contract will be terminated."

  "You... have such a big ambition! Are you certain that you can seal the gods?" Laila could hardly believe her ears, a small bronze-ranked half-elf youth dared to say something so arrogant.

  Leiwen crossed his arms over his chest, looking confident: "Heh heh, right. Maybe I'm just a insignificant little kid. But you can bet on it too. After all, if I fail to seal the gods, as a half-elf with mostly human blood, my lifespan is at most 100 years. For someone who theoretically has infinite life like you, this is actually not a bad price to pay. Not to mention that I also have the possibility of dying suddenly at any time."

  Laila, the old priest and Sains exchanged a look, finally reaching an agreement.

  "I hope you mean what you say." Actually, at this point, Leila had no choice but to agree.

  After a while, Leila summoned the Contract Messenger. The messenger still wore the same attire, with a stack of contract scrolls in his left arm and a golden scale in his right hand.

  He was so scared after seeing what he needed to notarize that his hands were shaking almost uncontrollably.

  This was the most absurd and outrageous oath of allegiance he had ever seen. A high-and-mighty deity, unconditionally pledging allegiance to a fifteen-year-old half-elf boy.

  It's really like I've lived for thousands of years and ended up in a dog's body. As an absolutely impartial witness to the contract, the Contract God has an absolute duty of confidentiality. It's really like I'm going to suffocate him.

  Fortunately, Raven was good at social interactions and promptly offered a dozen or so divine gold coins as a form of filial piety, which made the Contract God Envoy's heart feel better.

  The angel held up the golden scales, casting a gigantic illusion. One side of the scales bore the contract book, while the other side bore a soul that emitted weak divine power and was shrouded in mist.

  "Alright! In the name of the Contract God, based on the principles of fairness, justice and openness, I witness the signing of the Oath Contract between the two parties. I ask you, Raven, do you agree to accept Phantom Goddess Laila as your subordinate, guarantee her life with all your might, and share your glory with her?"

  "I agree."

  "Phantom Goddess Laila, do you agree that under the premise of Raven doing his best to guarantee your life and the lives of your followers, you will serve Raven wholeheartedly, taking Raven as your master until Raven reaches the end of his life or ignites the divine fire and ascends to the throne?"

  Laila gritted her teeth and finally nodded: "I agree."

  "I hereby declare, in the name of the just contract god, that the contract of fealty is established."

  The contract is formed, and the divine messenger disperses.

  Little loli immediately pressed for an answer, "Where is that territory?"

  "Oh, that place. It's in the Frieder Swamp."

  The three of them hastily opened the map and searched for a while, Laila asked with a hint of sadness and anger: "You're not deceiving me, are you? That place is the lair of a legendary black dragon! And who knows how many monsters are lurking there. We simply don't have the ability to clear that place!"

  "Oh, your news is outdated, three days ago, that unlucky black dragon was slaughtered by 10 legendary strongmen."

  "The... " The old priest seemed lost in thought.

  "Didn't I say so? 'For a mere fragment of the Dog-Headed God's divine aura, we've managed to attract a joint attack from 10 legendary masters.' " The three people couldn't help but feel that there was a devilish tail on Raven's butt, swishing back and forth with excitement.

  "Could it be..."

  "Right! The thing about the black dragon having a shard of divinity on its body was exposed by me."

  Laila suddenly understood everything. She also knew about Raven's feud with the Black Scorch Cult. It was clear that Raven had sold out the old black dragon to get rid of it, and then waited for a group of legendary strongmen to successfully slay the dragon before casually giving the now-empty swamp to the Shadow Cult.

  Lei Wen that bastard actually used this as a bargaining chip, forcing the proud Phantom Goddess to sign that humiliating oath of allegiance...

  "Raven you bastard——!" Laila's furious roar shook the sky!
