Immediately after, Kiba spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, collapsing to the ground, unable to rise again.
Thus, Kiba Yuto was defeated.
Seeing his good buddy in trouble, Yi Cheng rushed over to help Kiba Yuto up.
Meanwhile, Irina, who had just been knocked unconscious, rubbed her head and slowly woke up, complaining as she looked at the caved-in ground.
"Xenovia, really, every time she fights, she has to destroy the ground."
As Irina spoke, she stood up, and upon seeing Yi Cheng, her expression became somewhat complicated.
Forget it, from now on, I'll devote myself entirely to the divine.
Thinking this, Irina returned to her original demeanor.
"I'm sorry, I lost."
Irina came before Xenovia and said apologetically, and looking at her teammate, Xenovia suddenly felt she needed to give her extra training.
She then looked at Yi Cheng.
"Are we still fighting?"
"Of course..."
"Alright, that's enough!"
Rias stepped forward, "Let's call this spar a draw, but I still thank you for not using a holy sword to kill him."
Xenovia looked at Rias and nodded, as there was no point in continuing the fight.
She turned and picked up her white robe; the cloth strips on the 'Broken Holy Sword' automatically wrapped around it, and Irina did the same.
Yi Cheng, worried about the injured Kiba Yuto, said nothing.
"Then... let's take our leave."
With that, the two turned and left without the slightest hesitation.
Ye Xiao smiled; perhaps tomorrow or the day after, he would see the two of them begging on the street.
After all, that big smarty Irina bought a painting of a god, and it seemed to be fake.
"Then Rias, take good care of your family matters; Sona and I will leave first."
"Mm, you two go ahead."
After Ye Xiao and Sona left, Rias and Zhu Nai looked at Kiba and Yi Cheng with some helplessness.
Time flew by.
The sky donned a black veil, and the moon hung high in the sky.
Ye Xiao lay on the balcony, enjoying the breeze.
That faint, almost imperceptible gaze made Ye Xiao feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Athena, come out."
As Ye Xiao's words fell, everything around them plunged into darkness, all the lights went out, and the people on the street seemed to have disappeared.
Athena instantly appeared before Ye Xiao.
"It's been a while, Godslayer, to be able to and..."
"Alright, don't say so much; you've been watching me all along."
Faced with Athena's words, Ye Xiao directly interrupted her, but a hint of anger actually appeared on Athena's usually expressionless face!?
"Rude Godslayer, to interrupt my speech, Godslayer, state your name."
Athena still didn't know the name of the Godslayer Devil before her, yet her own name was known to him.
"Ye Xiao, the Seventh King who slays gods as a devil, Demon King Ye Xiao."
"Godslayer Devil, Ye Xiao, I know."
Athena said, looking at Ye Xiao, "Let's fight! Let's battle with the Ancient Serpent as the stake!"
Ye Xiao smiled, saying nothing.
He directly threw the gorgon stone to Athena, who instinctively caught it.
Looking at the gorgon stone in her hand, she then looked at Ye Xiao.
"What do you mean by this? Are you bestowing it upon me!"
"No, no, no, the battle must still happen, but let's change the stakes. If you lose, you become my servant; if I lose, vice versa."
Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Athena burst out laughing.
"Interesting, truly too interesting!"
"Then, I accept this wager!"
At the same time, Liliana and Mariya Yuri, who were catching up at a dessert shop, looked at the pitch-black surroundings and instantly became alert.
Sensing this aura, Liliana and Mariya Yuri exchanged glances.
"This... this is the aura of an Disobedient God!!"
Sensing the approximate location, Liliana instantly stood up.
"Oh no! My King."
With that, Liliana directly gave Mariya Yuri a princess carry.
"Wings of the Witch, please help me fly!"
Saying this, Liliana activated 'Flight' and hurried towards home.
Similarly, Erica and Lucrezia also rushed home.
Damn it, in just a moment, their home was stolen!
The scene returned to Ye Xiao.
Athena held the 'Serpent' in her hand, looked deeply at Ye Xiao, and then smiled.
"Godslayer, remember history, the resurrection of the Trinity Queen is about to descend!!"
With that, the 'Serpent' floated in Athena's hand and slowly rose into the air.
Colorful purple enveloped Athena.
"I sing, sing the song of the ancient goddess who once ruled heaven and earth and darkness, sing..."
"Athena swears here, swears to restore her ancient body!"
Athena was completely enveloped in darkness.
As the darkness dissipated.
Athena transformed from a small child into an eighteen-year-old girl, with long hair and dressed in ancient Roman attire.
Athena felt her current power; it seemed she couldn't fully control it yet.
"Then, Ye Xiao, are you ready?"
"Of course."
"When you fail, you will be my first male servant!"
"Is that so? I don't want to be your male servant."
Ye Xiao said, then raised his hand, and the Golden Sword appeared in his hand, continuing, "Then Athena, when you fail, you shall attend to the King in bed!"
"Golden World!"
As his words fell, Ye Xiao pulled Athena into the domain of the Golden Sword's authority.
This space was golden.
Golden Swords filled the entire space.
With the activation of the Golden Sword, Liliana and Erica both became somewhat frantic.
They hadn't even imparted knowledge of Athena to their King yet!
Inside the Golden Space.
Ye Xiao plunged the Golden Sword into the ground, maintaining the continuation of the space.
Athena surveyed the area, "A good place. Then, let's wager our future freedom!"
Saying this, a purple expanse appeared behind Athena.
Pairs of eyes emerged, then transformed into purple light arrows shooting towards Ye Xiao.
"I can't be underestimated."
Ye Xiao said, and 'Pursuer' appeared in his left hand; then with a gentle wave, countless bolts of lightning met the light arrows.
The collision of lightning and light arrows.
Explosions resounded continuously.
"Interesting Godslayer! Then how about this!"
Athena waved her hand lightly.
The ground began to shake, and Ye Xiao instantly left his original spot; immediately after, a black giant serpent with a gaping maw burst out of the ground.
At the same time, Athena stood on the head of another giant serpent.
This was the Great God created by Athena using her Word of Power.
Ye Xiao looked at the black giant serpent, with no trace of fear in his eyes, but rather great interest.
How does a Word of Power create such creatures?
Ye Xiao dodged the giant serpent's attacks while thinking about how to create one.
"Athena, thank you for the inspiration!"
Ye Xiao laughed loudly at Athena, as if he had understood something.
