Chapter 231: The Benevolent Phantom Goddess
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Cheng’s current plan was to use the Kingdom of Kent as the center and conquer the surrounding NPC kingdoms. This was much more than just a small fight and farming in a few secret realms.
Mage City had the protection of the Goddess of Magic so Li Cheng could not openly attack them. However, the beliefs of other kingdoms were extremely chaotic, and no God was willing to get involved.
Li Cheng looked at the rising sun. He planned to go to the City of Light. The huge overnight change in the Kingdom of Kent was enough to shock the entire lost continent.
In the lost continent, it was normal for the royal seat to change hands, but the war this time was unprecedented. The troops of the Shadow World really drew a lot of attention.
In the high-level meeting room of the Church of Light in the City of Light.
The meeting room was exceptionally lively. The high-level priests and commanders of the nine churches were all gathered together.
“Bishops, commanders, the war in the Kingdom of Kent is most definitely a planar war!”
“That’s right. Almost half of the elite troops of the Shadow World had been deployed. They even massacred hundreds of billions of human beings. We can’t just ignore it!”
“Netherworld’s simply an opportunist. He doesn’t have any kindness or justice in his heart. He only has his own interests in mind!”
“That’s right. He must give us an explanation for this matter. Otherwise, he won’t be able to get away with it!”

They were all filled with righteous indignation. They could not wait to send their troops to attack Li Cheng’s territory.
At this moment, in the delegation of the Church of Light, Commander Vic and the two archbishops exchanged glances. In the end, they nodded indiscernibly. “I believe you’re all aware of the situation at Duke Netherworld’s territory. Who wants to attack it?”
Hearing this, the entire conference room fell silent in an instant. The corners of the mouths of all the high priests and commanders twitched.
The recent monster siege was still vividly playing in their minds. Li Cheng’s territory was probably 10,000 times stronger than the City of Light.
Almost all the Gods from the evil forces were there, but not one of them could even take down Li Cheng’s territory. Naturally, no one was prepared to die.
However, soon, a man who was emitting a cold killing intent stood up and said, “But we, the good camp, will not allow the planar war to happen again!”
Hearing this, all the bishops agreed.
“As long as the nine churches work together, we might be able to take down this Netherworld!”
“That’s right. He was able to defeat the allied forces of the evil faction the last time because of the Gods of the good faction.”
“Without the help of the Gods, he’s just a small tier-three lord. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”
“I don’t agree. The Gods only arrived during the last wave. Didn’t you all watch how the earlier waves turned out?”
The majestic conference room became noisy again with all kinds of arguments.
Suddenly, the door of the conference room was suddenly kicked open with a loud bang. Then, it collided heavily with the wall.
Everyone’s pupils constricted as they all looked toward the door. Was that not the Netherworld they were denouncing at the moment?
Li Cheng calmly walked into the conference room and came before a man dressed in light green clothes. He blinked. The man in front of him was the high-level priest of the Forest Church.
His entire body was green. hH even wore a dazzling green hat on his head.

Li Cheng said coldly, “Green hat old man, make way.”
“Why?” the man asked angrily. Out of so many people, why did Netherworld target him? Was Netherworld trying to bully him or something?
Li Cheng pointed at the Duke Medal on his chest. “Because I’m a Duke? What? Does the Forest Church not abide by the rules set by the nine gods?”
The man’s face was as green as his hat, He looked as if he had eaten sh*t. Anyone could see the anger in his eyes.
However, a few seconds later, he still obediently gave up his seat. According to the rules of the church, the rights and status of the God-blessed Duke were higher than those of the ordinary high-level priests. Even the Holy Sons and Saintesses were on equal footing.
Li Cheng calmly looked at the priests of the nine churches. They were the strongest churches of the good faction.
It was worth mentioning that the nine churches were not only comprised of Gods from the good camp. There were also some neutral Gods, such as the God of War and the Goddess of Forests.
As a reincarnated person, Li Cheng knew that the so-called nine churches were not as united as they appeared to be. Every God had their own demands.
For example, the War Church, the church of the man who initiated the denunciation of Li Cheng. Their goal was to start a war.
Regardless of whether it was against the evil camp, the neutral camp, or the good camp, as long as there was a war, they would be all smiles.
As for the Goddess of Forests, naturally, her goal was to protect the forests. She would immediately pick up a butcher’s knife and hunt anyone who invaded the forests, even if it was someone from the nine churches. She did not care who they were. Anyone who destroyed the forest deserved to die!
As for the Goddess of Magic, she was just a bystander. As long as the magic network was not threatened, she was like an invisible person who did not care about anything.
Thinking of this, Li Cheng smiled disdainfully. He could not be bothered to say much to these people. He simply took out 10 extremely terrifying and ugly objects from his backpack.
Rumble… Rumble…
The sound of rumbling could be heard endlessly.
In the next moment, 10 Mythical-grade insect nests appeared on the floor of the meeting room. Watching this scene, everyone present felt their scalps go numb.
Mythical-grade insect nests?! 10 of them?!
Commander Vic did not think much. He pulled out his sword and a dazzling light flashed as the holy sword’s light instantly pierced through the 10 insect nests.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Li Cheng did not activate these insect nests. If he did, the entire conference room would definitely suffer.
Li Cheng said, “This is what I found under the capital city of the Kingdom of Kent, Hindley City.
“The benevolent Phantom Goddess was worried about the rise of the Zergs. Hence, for the safety of the entire continent, she didn’t hesitate to use her troops. With those troops, she destroyed the conspiracy of the Zergs.
“Oh right, there are hundreds of thousands of Mythical-grade Zerg nests in my backpack. Do you want to take a look?”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s scalps went numb again. It was as if bugs were crawling on their heads.
The priest of the Church of Life was so scared that his little face turned pale. “No, no, Duke Netherworld, don’t take them out again.”
As for the others, other than being shocked, they were also cursing in their hearts.
To hell with the benevolent Phantom Goddess, a neutral Goddess who had been a Goddess for thousands of years. Yet, she had never made a single contribution to the good camp….
