Chapter 1606: Qualifications
The sudden surge of terrifying power made every Main God in the area tense up, their gazes locking warily onto Ye Guan. That pressure... it was coming from him.
As all eyes fixed on him, a shadowy figure appeared above Ye Guan's head, gradually taking form. It was a middle-aged man. The moment they saw him, every Main God froze in shock.
"Zong Xin?!"
Lin Hou stared at the man; his eyes were filled with deep apprehension.
As soon as Lin Hou confirmed the man's identity, the others snapped out of their daze, only for fear to replace it. They knew exactly who Zong Xin was.
To outsiders, he was just the number one name on the wanted list of blesphemers. But what they didn't know was that he used to be part of the Central Gods Temple. No, he was once the head of the Divine Martial Temple, the strongest faction within it. It was even said that he had once been personally named by the former Temple God as his successor.
No one knew why he betrayed the Temple of the Gods and vanished from the world.
Lin Hou never imagined he'd see Zong Xin here. He narrowed his eyes at Zong Xin and chuckled coldly. "No wonder Ye Guan dared to show up alone. So it's you backing him up."
The other Main Gods finally understood; Ye Guan wasn't some random prodigy. Zong Xin was behind him, which made sense now. He was practically raised by the Temple of the Gods itself. No wonder he was freakishly strong.
Zong Xin laughed but didn't bother to explain. His gaze fell on Lin Hou. "Didn't expect you, of all people, to end up as an Executive Main God. Tsk... Still as corrupt as ever."
Lin Hou's expression darkened. "Back then, you were hailed as the Central Gods Temple's strongest. I'd like to see if you've lived up to the name."
"You want to fight me?" Zong Xin laughed dismissively. "Ask Mu Rong if you're even qualified."
