"Really? That's great."

Menma looked relieved, making Yi Shuihan feel like a creepy uncle who had kidnapped a little girl.

"Will you come with me?"

Menma is a ghost, so she probably doesn't have much talent in cultivating her cosmos. However, Yi Shuihan doesn't care too much. He doesn't need Menma to fight. As long as she has some self-defense ability, that's enough. With the existence of the Creation Jade Butterfly, it will be easy for Menma to cultivate to the seventh sense of her cosmos. At worst, he can just give her a body later.

Yi Shuihan has his own set of standards for selecting fighters, and talent is only one of them, not the only one, and not even the most important one.

"Yes, I'm willing to go with you."

Why did you agree so quickly?

"Because you are the only one who can see me and talk to me, and you are a good person."

Yi Shuihan was somewhat surprised by the unexpected "friend zone" card.

"Oh no! Everyone run! We've been discovered! The monsters are coming! If we don't run now, it'll be too late!"

A cry of alarm threw the settlement into chaos, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, the settlement was about to be destroyed.

"You guys are lucky to have run into me when I was in a good mood."

To Menma's astonishment, Yi Shuihan easily killed hundreds of giant monsters, each tens of meters long, any one of which could destroy this settlement.

"Are you a deity?"

"Yes, it is!"

Chapter 836, Gathering of the Main Gods

I brought Menma back to Mount Lu and held a small meet-and-greet, where I simply revealed the name of the flower we had seen that day, a flower whose name we still didn't know.

Menma immediately integrated into the Fighter family, and all the girls in the audience shed tears. The Maya sisters said they would protect Menma, and the King said that Menma would be her sister from now on.

"Holy crap, I didn't expect it to have this effect, it's really unexpected."

After watching the anime, Lu Xiaofeng and the others actually gained some insights and broke through to the seventh sense the next day. This was probably a month ahead of schedule. Most importantly, our Aizen broke through the boundaries of gods and officially advanced to the Silver rank.

As for how Aizen advanced, it was naturally because he was moved by Menma's story and thought about his original intention in training, which triggered a series of reactions.

The effect of a friendship-themed and heartwarming anime far exceeded Yi Shuihan's expectations; it was a true cleansing of the soul, allowing Yi Shuihan to witness the power of a sophomore.

"Should we play some music for them, like your name or something?"

Once the thought appeared, it was unstoppable, and then one night, Yi Shuihan successfully earned enough tears.

Later, Yi Shuihan regretted his actions. Because, according to Yi Shuihan's male warriors, when they met a girl they liked, their first question was, "Have we met before?"

Not everyone knows your name, so this crude and outdated flirting technique has a very low success rate and is too low-class. It would damage the reputation of Yi Shuihan if it were mentioned. Is this the level of emotional intelligence of the warriors he trained?

Menma felt very happy staying in Lushan because everyone could see her and touch her. She also temporarily possessed a prosthetic body, which was kindly provided by Aizen. Because of Menma, Aizen's strength greatly improved, and Aizen was very kind to her.

Similarly, Menma's adorable personality is also loved by everyone. Although Gon's personality is also simple, it feels different because of his gender. Menma is more likable than Gon.

Menma stayed in Lushan, and her clone set off again. Soon after, Lushan welcomed guests, or perhaps not entirely guests.

"Grandpa Tong Hu, you're back."

It felt very incongruous for Xiao Jie to call out to the now-young Tong Hu. The two of them standing together had an age difference of no more than 10 years. Calling him grandfather would be a bit much, even uncle would be too much.

Lu Xiaofeng and the others, who had never met Tong Hu, looked on with confusion.

"He looks younger than me, and Xiao Jie calls him grandpa?"

"You can't judge a book by its cover; perhaps he, like me, has disguised himself."

"Makes sense!"

"What's your opinion, Brother Li?"

"This is the real him. He is full of energy and he is very strong, stronger than all of us. I guess only Aizen is stronger than him."

While catching up with Xiao Jie, Tong Hu also observed the newcomers he had never seen before. His strength was so great that he could easily see through everyone's level of cultivation, which left him extremely shocked.

Only a handful of Gold Saints emerge in each generation, making them geniuses on Earth, counted in centuries. Yet here, there's a whole group of guys even more terrifying than Aiolia. Luckily, Dohko has a strong heart, or he might have questioned his existence.

"Indeed, it is the work of a god, beyond our comprehension."

Just by observing Lu Xiaofeng and the others, one can see the power of Yi Shuihan. Tong Hu knew that these newcomers had never been exposed to the Small Universe before, yet they had cultivated to this level from scratch in just a few months.

Even the most talented Saint Seiya in the history of Sanctuary did not achieve such speed. Of course, Tong Hu would not believe that this was entirely due to talent, and naturally attributed most of the credit to Yi Shuihan. Of course, this was absolutely true, as Lu Xiaofeng and the others were not as talented as Aiolia and the others.

"You've come to deliver a message, haven't you? Athena wants to see me?"

Tong Hu's purpose in coming can be easily guessed. It is estimated that Athena sent him because she knew that Tong Hu had spent the most time with Yi Shuihan and the others and that they had a good relationship.

"Yes, Athena asked me to tell you that a gathering of the main gods will be held in the Sanctuary in a month. She thinks you should be interested in it, and you can come to the Sanctuary to participate if you wish."

When he spoke, Tong Hu's expression was very serious. He was completely dumbfounded when he first learned about the so-called gathering of the main gods. He had seen a lot of big battles, fought against Death and Sleep, and even faced Hades. But none of those could compare to what was happening now. There were 11 beings on par with Athena, and Hades was just one of them.

Will Zeus participate?

Yi Shuihan asked.

"Will do."

Tong Hu gave an affirmative answer.

So he's already here? He arrived so quietly, I didn't even notice how he got here. It's highly likely that Zeus proposed Athena to convene the council of the gods, and she's just holding it in name only.

"I know this."

Without saying whether he would go or not, Tong Hu didn't dare to ask any more questions. After catching up with Xiao Jie and the others for a while, he left.

"So should I go or not? The gathering of the main gods has nothing to do with me. If I go, I can meet the so-called twelve main gods and get a feel for their strength. This will be beneficial for future battles. At least I can prepare in advance. However, there is also danger. If something happens and I am targeted, I will have no choice but to run away."

Yi Shuihan didn't completely trust Athena. It was impossible for her to believe her based on just one meeting and past influences. However, Athena had no reason to lie to Yi Shuihan, because if she wanted to take action against him, she wouldn't need to go through all this trouble. A surprise attack would be much simpler.

"Go, how can I not go to such a grand occasion? However, I cannot go myself, so I will send my clone instead. The clone's strength is not weak either."

Yi Shuihan was still very eager to see Zeus, the god-king who forcibly changed the plot.

Chapter 837, Finally Encountering the So-Called "Girlification"

Within the Earth's sphere, Yi Shuihan's clones and main body can communicate at any time. In the blink of an eye, the clone, hundreds of thousands of miles away, learned about the Main God Assembly.

"This person really knows how to make things difficult for me, making me do all the dirty and tiring work."

The clone pursed its lips, muttered something, changed its original direction, and headed towards the Holy Land.

This is Yi Shuihan's third trip to the Holy Realm. Each trip is extraordinary. The first was the return of the gold, the second was to meet the goddess, and the upcoming third is the Goddess Assembly. Each event is bigger than the last.

It only took Yi Shuihan half a month to reach the Holy City, twice as fast as before, even though he deliberately slowed down.

Upon arriving in the Holy City, Yi Shuihan did not notify the Holy Domain for the time being. Instead, he stayed in the Holy Domain, intending to experience life in the Holy City and see if he could meet any suitable fighters.

After all, the Holy City is home to half of the Earth's population, so Yi Shuihan felt that finding someone who met the requirements was a reliable approach.

The holy city is divided into four regions according to the distribution of population: east, south, west, and north. The eastern region is mainly inhabited by Asians, with the largest number being from China. The western region is inhabited by people from the United States. The southern region is mostly inhabited by people from previously underdeveloped areas, such as the Middle East. The northern region is mostly inhabited by people from Europe.

In general, the eastern district accounts for half of the population of the holy city, with more than 400 million people from China. The second largest district is the northern district, with about 300 million people. The third largest district is the western district, with about 200 million people. Finally, the southern district has more than 100 million people.

Yi Shuihan's main area of ​​activity is naturally the East District, since he is also Asian and would stand out a bit if he went to other areas.

"Wonton, wontons made from fire dragon meat, are delicious and nutritious."

"I bought the candied hawthorns at a cheap price."

"Weapons clearance sale, buy one get one free, first come first served, while supplies last."

The sounds of vendors hawking their wares filled the streets, creating a unique kind of bustling atmosphere amidst the comings and goings of people.

Yi Shuihan walked up to the stall selling candied hawthorns, bought a skewer, and started eating.

This candied hawthorn is not the candied hawthorn of the past. The sugar used in the candied hawthorn is not sugar in the ordinary sense, but a natural syrup that has emerged after the great changes in the earth. It is not only sweet, but also has the effect of healing. The fruit used to make candied hawthorn is not apple or the like, but a brand new variety. It not only tastes better than apple, but can also slightly enhance physical fitness.

While munching on candied hawthorns, they arrived at the weapons shop. There weren't many people buying weapons, and even the "buy one get one free" offer didn't seem to entice anyone.

It's not that these weapons are bad, but that they are too expensive. Even if there were a buy-one-get-one-free offer, only a minority of people could afford them.

"What kind of weapon do you want? Our swords are of the best quality. They are not only sharper than swords from other places, but also more durable. We're having a promotion now, so you definitely won't regret buying one."

"I don't buy swords; these swords are too low quality for me to use."

Yi Shuihan shook his head and said.

"Too low quality? You can try this sword first; even a 3-star evolved being can use it."

The stall owner handed Yi Shuihan a black sword.

"The Interpreter?"

"Ah! How do you know its name?"

The stall owner asked, quite surprised.

"I not only know its name, but I also know your name, Asuna! Isn't that right?"

With a smile on his face, Yi Shuihan had never come for the weapons, but for the person who wanted to buy them.

"Are you also from our world?"

Asuna asked excitedly, "In this world, it's a very lucky thing to meet a companion from your original world."

"Don't misunderstand, I'm not from the same world as you. I just know about your world and about you for some reason, that's all."

Hearing that they weren't from the same world, Asuna was somewhat disappointed and managed a forced smile.

"Shouldn't this Explainer be Kirito's weapon? Why are you selling it?"

Yi Shuihan asked in confusion.

"Kirito? You mean Kiriko? She's seriously injured and needs a lot more crystals to heal, that's why she took out her sword..."

Kiriko? What the heck!

Suddenly recalling certain events, Yi Shuihan felt as if a thousand thunderbolts were exploding in his heart.

Is Kiriko a girl?

Asuna looked at Yi Shuihan strangely. Why did she ask Kirito if he was a girl when she knew about her and Kirito?

"Tongzi is my best friend."

Sure enough, they've been gender-bent! This is the first time I've encountered a gender-bent character. The world has changed in some ways before, but I've never encountered a change in the gender of the characters. Today, I've finally encountered one.

Therefore, as long as you live long enough, you can encounter all possibilities.

How many more crystals are needed?

"what?"

"What I mean is, how many crystals are still needed for Kiriko's treatment?"

"Still short, wait, let me calculate."

Asuna took out a small notebook, flipped through it, and then said...

"We still need 10 more blue crystals."

10 blue crystals is equivalent to 10 level 3 monsters, which is enough to buy 2 level 3 weapons. The Elucidator is priced at 10 blue crystals, which is already on the expensive side. However, considering that the Elucidator is better than similar weapons in the general sense, 10 blue crystals is not considered expensive.

"I see. No wonder they wanted to sell the Explainer."

Aside from the Elucidator, all the other weapons on Asuna's stall would probably only fetch around 10 crystals if sold out.

He simply pulled out a handful of crystals and handed them to Asuna.

"Here you go, take this to treat Kiriko."

Staring blankly at the 15 blue crystals in her hand, Asuna was first overjoyed, then asked with some trepidation,

"Why are you helping us?"

"There's no reason why, I just couldn't bear to see such a beautiful girl perish like this."

"You don't even know whether Kirito is a boy or a girl, so why do you call her a beautiful girl?"

"First of all, you are a beautiful girl, I can't deny that, my eyes have already told me that. Then, a beautiful girl's best friend is definitely not bad, so Kirito is definitely a beautiful girl too. Even if she isn't, I still have to save her for your sake!"

"Pfft!"

Asuna was amused by Yi Shuihan's theory. She had been so worried about Kirito these past few days that her hair had almost turned white. Now she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Well, I..."

"Go and heal Kiriko quickly! Don't worry about me."
