Chapter 434: The True Source of Trouble
Miao Yin was a bit sharp-tongued, extremely aggressive, and immediately broke through Snow Mountain God's defenses.
She looked at Miao Yin in disbelief. As a goddess, she had lived for countless years, but this was the first time she had been mocked in such a way.
Snow Mountain God was furious!
"Human, do you think you can insult me at will just because I am a benevolent god? Blaspheming the gods, do you know the consequences!"
"You have the nerve to call yourself a benevolent god? Which proper benevolent god would steal someone else's man?"
"I didn't! I was forced to!"
"Then did you resist?"
Snow Mountain God: "..."
At that time, she was still hesitating, thinking about how to let Long Yan come to her rescue. Who knew that Zhang Chi would not follow the rules, completely unafraid of outsiders coming in, and then take advantage of the situation...
She was careless, didn't dodge at first, and it was meaningless to dodge later, so she just continued to play along.
"I... it wasn't intentional anyway."
"I saw you were enjoying it! I was watching you the whole time. I didn't expect the pure and virtuous goddess to be like this, tsk tsk..."
The rest of the conversation was too explicit, and Miao Yin didn't say it directly. Under her verbal attack, Snow Mountain God curled up into a ball.
She never expected that Miao Yin would actually use her authority to spy on her. When she left this ability, she also wanted to prevent Miao Yin from getting too bored.
She was just too kind, which led to her current embarrassment.
Not only did she play tricks as a goddess and involve herself, but she was also watched by others throughout the process.
At that time, she was deeply involved in her performance, and there might have been some genuine emotions, but she was seen by others...
Snow Mountain God wanted to change to be a deity in another world.
If not, she didn't want this deity position anymore.
Seeing that Snow Mountain God was already so ashamed, Miao Yin felt that it was almost enough. After all, she wasn't a devil.
It was enough to vent a little frustration. This Snow Mountain God wasn't bad, just not quite normal.
Perhaps it was because she had been imprisoned for too long, her mind had some problems.
Miao Yin secretly complained, then spoke up, "Alright, stop it. I came to you today because there's something important."
Snow Mountain God was still in self-isolation and didn't pay attention to Miao Yin.
Miao Yin continued to speak on her own, "I saw a black lotus growing deep in a cave in Myriad Spirits Cave, in the midst of magma. That lotus gave me a very ominous feeling. Do you know what it is?"
After all these years, Snow Mountain God should be omniscient about the matters in the Western State.
"What did you say?"
Hearing Miao Yin's description, Snow Mountain God was suddenly shocked and forgot about her embarrassment.
"Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"
"Of course not. Do you think I'm as unreliable as you, a god?"
Although Miao Yin was a substitute deity, she took her responsibilities seriously, unlike Snow Mountain God, who often slacked off and was indifferent when responding to her followers.
Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that it was because Snow Mountain God had been a deity for too many years and had grown tired of it, naturally slacking off whenever possible.
This was the difference between a veteran employee and a new employee.
Snow Mountain God was once again criticized by Miao Yin, but she didn't get too excited. She was still immersed in the news from earlier and couldn't extricate herself.
"If what you said is true, then I may have to return early."
Snow Mountain God's mentality suddenly felt a bit shattered. It felt like working for thousands of years, finally finding a vacation to go out and have some fun, but not long after leaving, a major event forced her to return.
Two words: uncomfortable!
If it had happened a little earlier, it would have been fine, but unfortunately, she had let others take advantage of her before realizing it. She had been thinking about enduring this test and then enjoying her vacation!
Now, Snow Mountain God was truly at a loss.
Seeing that Snow Mountain God was feeling so down, Miao Yin also became curious and asked, "So what exactly is this black lotus?"
"According to your description, it should be a calamity lotus."
Snow Mountain God explained, "You preside over the Divine Domain, so as a deity, if you feel uneasy, it means that this thing is at least on the same level as me. It can shatter your observations, and it's probably already a force to be reckoned with. It won't be easy to destroy it."
"So what exactly is it?"
Miao Yin also knew that the lotus flower must be a very powerful thing, but Snow Mountain God didn't get to the point after talking for so long. It was unclear whether she was deliberately avoiding the topic or if her mind wasn't clear due to her current mood.
"If I'm not mistaken, that thing might be the source of trouble in the Western State."
Snow Mountain God said, and couldn't help but complain, "Those charlatans at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion probably wouldn't have thought that the so-called source of trouble is just a lotus flower."
She was naturally mocking the people at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.
Since the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion was active in the Western State, it naturally couldn't escape Snow Mountain God's observation.
As a god who enjoyed having fun, Snow Mountain God only found it amusing to watch these charlatans.
They had the ability to peek into the heavenly mechanism, but they were too afraid to use it. What was the use of having that ability?
The most ridiculous part was that they liked to consider themselves skilled in divination, but in reality, they relied on others to gather clues to analyze the fate of the chosen one.
In Snow Mountain God's view, it was quite ridiculous.
Of course, Snow Mountain God also acknowledged the ability of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to peek into the heavenly mechanism, which was indeed very powerful.
Even she couldn't peek into the future, at most she could only sense good or bad omens.
Perhaps the main hall of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion still had formidable individuals. Truly formidable individuals wouldn't be exiled to the Western Zhou!
Returning to the topic, Snow Mountain God criticized the people of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion and then returned to the main point.
"There are many forms and colors of lotus flowers in the world. By observing their colors, you can discern their nature. It is said that there is a golden lotus, a color of harmony, visible to virtuous people. There is an Azure Lotus, a color of wealth and nobility, visible to those with great talents. There is a red lotus, a color of bloodshed, visible to cruel and violent individuals. There is a white lotus, a color of pure goodness, visible to those with clear minds. And there is a black lotus, a color of calamity..."
Pausing here, Snow Mountain God continued, "The black lotus is visible to everyone, and whoever sees it will bring calamity."
This was why Snow Mountain God had concluded that the black lotus was the source of trouble.
As long as the black lotus didn't appear, anyone could potentially be the source of trouble—Miao Yin, Wenren Li, Zhang Chi, Long Yan, or even Hong Li, or an unknown passerby.
The situation was uncertain, and anything was possible.
But once the black lotus appeared, the source of trouble could only be the black lotus, because it could turn anyone who saw it into a calamity.
Hearing how powerful the black lotus was, Miao Yin couldn't help but feel nervous. "If I saw it, would I become a calamity?"
She appeared cold-hearted, but she wasn't someone who was afraid of everything, and she certainly didn't want to cause trouble.
"Of course not. You are temporarily presiding over the deity position, so naturally, you can see everything and won't be affected."
Snow Mountain God comforted Miao Yin and suddenly remembered that she had been sharp-tongued towards her earlier. She regretted it a bit.
If she had known, she wouldn't have said anything and let her panic first. Who let her have such a sharp tongue?
It was a pity that she didn't seize this opportunity!
How could she regain her dignity from Miao Yin? Snow Mountain God pondered and finally came up with an answer.
If I can't trouble you, can't I trouble your man?
Since she was going back anyway, she might as well stir up a big wave!
