The saddest thing in the world was not death, but being alone in eternal life.
In the long river of time, it was truly the saddest thing if only you could live indenitely, while your
relatives, friends, and loved ones around you had to die one after another in front of your very eyes, and
you could not reverse all this.
Shen Yanxiao thought that the lack of aection of the gods might be a good thing. Because if they had a
sentimental disposition, they would have been tortured and driven mad by this eternal life.
“Do you remember, I once said that I was not the rst War God.” Xiu said.
“Yes.” Shen Yanxiao nodded her head.
The fall of the previous War God had always made Shen Yanxiao curious. Those who could hold the
position of War God were the most powerful superior gods of the God Race. Shen Yanxiao had seen with
her own eyes just how formidable Xiu was. The former War God, who had the same status as Xiu before,
must have been as powerful as Xiu.
Before the war between gods and devils, the gods basically had no natural enemies and the devils never
fought with the gods. It could be said that the gods at that time had true eternal life.
However, the previous War God had actually perished. It was somewhat strange.
“He fell in love with a female devil and married her. The female devil conceived his child, which possessed
the power of both the devils and the gods. But the female devil’s constitution could not bear the birth of
such a child. Eventually she died, causing the previous War God to be devastated; he nally chose to
destroy himself.” Xiu’s voice was slow and leisurely as he told the distant story.
Shen Yanxiao’s eyes widened. Although she knew that the relationship between the gods and devils was
not too bad before the great war, she also never thought that such feelings would blossom between these
two races.
The eight major races in the world had their own unique characteristics. Other races were ne, but the
devil energy of the devils and the divine power of the gods were the forces of mutual restraint. Once the
two collided, the result was inconceivable.
“Gods and devils cannot be combined. You should be very clear about this. Despite the many experiments
Ouyang Huanyu has done, he has still been unable to integrate the blood of gods and devils in the same
body. Thus, there was no possibility of coexistence between the blood of two races.” Xiu said.
“But I…” Shen Yanxiao was shocked.
Xiu shook his head and said, “You’re an exception. The experiment did not really let you accept my blood;
it was Yun Qi who did something, sealing my soul in your body. But you did not accept any divine power
during the experiment. Afterwards, the Light God sealed all the blood of the other races in your body, and
the power of the devils was completely suppressed. My awakening also made the divine power
completely cover the tiny devil energy in your body. When I gave you divine power, it was also before your
devil blood awakened, so there was no counter eect.”
Ouyang Huanyu’s experiment on racial integration eventually failed. Without Shen Siyu’s actions and the
help of Xiu, Shen Yanxiao would never have been able to bear the blood of the eight races. All the
happenings had left Shen Yanxiao as the only mixed-race with eight bloodlines today.
“Is it really impossible for the gods and devils to combine? Then what about the child?” Shen Yanxiao
looked at Xiu and asked. She nally understood why the results of the racial integration experiments had
failed before her— devil energy and divine power could not coexist in one body.
