Chapter 151

Jiang Xingzhuo stared at her hands. If the Keeper was as she suspected, no wonder the Creator Goddess wanted her dead.

Jiang Xingzhuo walked to the table and poured herself a glass of water, feeling hungry. Her boyfriend had been away for several days without returning. What was happening in the Eternal Silence? Why was it shaking? Surely no deity or creature would wish for the Eternal Silence to be damaged. She paused, her blood racing.

Too coincidental.

Jiang Xingzhuo slammed down the cup and looked up.

"Boom!"

A loud explosion ripped through the Divine Tower, creating a massive hole. The force did not stop but charged directly toward Jiang Xingzhuo.

A card flipped, revealing a shield that blocked in front of Jiang Xingzhuo, intercepting the force. Despite the shield, she still slid backward a short distance before coming to a halt.

The attacker was hostile and of high rank. "Divine Tower" was an internal space inherent to the Overlord System, not easily found or attacked by ordinary beings, unless the attacker was more powerful than the Overlord System itself.

A shadow slowly extended into the room from the hole.

Jiang Xingzhuo's sharp eyes darkened as she immediately took out the card containing the coordinates of the Eternal Silence, given to her by the Death God. Using this card would open the entrance to the Eternal Silence. This was the first time she was using it, having never visited the Eternal Silence because she did not want to expend energy to maintain her youth and health.

But now the situation was urgent...

The card spun, transforming into light. In the next instant, a cold flash split the light in two, turning it back into a severed card.

"Leaving your guest aside is not a proper way to entertain," a female voice said as the figure finally appeared before Jiang Xingzhuo.

This woman looked ordinary, not in terms of her appearance, but in the sense that she gave off an unremarkable presence, like a regular person with nothing extraordinary about her, harmless and barely noticeable.

But to find the Divine Tower, break through it, and destroy the coordinates given to her by the Death God, she must at least be a high-ranking deity.

High-ranking deities were those whose positions and powers were second only to the Supreme Gods, the Creator God and the Death God.

Jiang Xingzhuo did not believe her current abilities were sufficient to face a high-ranking deity head-on. The attacker clearly understood this, which was why they lured away the Supreme Gods first, using a diversionary tactic.

"Who are you?" Jiang Xingzhuo summoned all her UR cards, black cards with golden patterns floating around her, emitting a faint golden glow.

"Just a minor deity sent by my master, not worth mentioning," she said, her eyes narrowing as murderous intent surged: "Enough pointless chatter. Let me take your soul to my master!"

With that, a stronger force than before struck Jiang Xingzhuo.

Two defensive UR cards immediately activated, while three offensive UR cards flipped and charged at the attacker.

Explosions echoed continuously, causing the Divine Tower to tremble violently. Jiang Xingzhuo hit the wall, feeling a surge of blood in her throat.

It was wise to retreat when outmatched. Her boyfriend, even if he was in the Eternal Silence and preoccupied, would not take more than ten minutes to check on her. Once he realized she was under attack, he would appear, and then this woman would be finished.

Jiang Xingzhuo thought this naturally, not seeing anything wrong with waiting for the Death God to come to her aid. What use was a man who could never be relied upon? She took out the Time-Space Gate card but hesitated before using it.

To conserve energy, the Time-Space Gate card was set to lead only to the ordinary human world. Entering any world meant this deity would follow, leading to collateral damage among innocent humans. Even passing through their planet could cause severe weather changes, tsunamis, and earthquakes.

Though she did not consider herself purely good, often manipulating humans as pawns to achieve her goals, she did not relish causing meaningless casualties. Otherwise, she would be no different from the Overlord players she despised and the deity who created the Overlord System.

This card could not be used; she needed another one.

As Jiang Xingzhuo searched for a card, the goddess had already destroyed the three UR cards. Amidst the smoky haze, her silhouette approached gracefully, carrying a terrifying divine power.

Yet, within this divine power, Jiang Xingzhuo sensed a familiar taste.

Familiar... Where had she felt it before?

Before she could recall, she had to focus on defending against the attack.

The Divine Tower was quickly reduced to ruins, swaying dangerously, about to collapse.

...

In the Eternal Silence.

The mysterious vibrations continued, with death gods and spirits wandering aimlessly, unable to find the cause.

The Death God was also perplexed, knowing he had to find the reason. Otherwise, the collapse of this space would affect everyone, including Jiang Xingzhuo.

While searching along the cosmic walls for the cause of the vibrations, he occasionally checked on Jiang Xingzhuo. Today, his wife was working diligently, killing false gods. ...She was killing false gods again...

Jiang Xingzhuo worked hard every day, fortunately, he had prepared food for her.

The Eternal Silence was vast, and even the Death God could not inspect every inch in a short time. After completing ten minutes of work, he routinely stopped to check on his girlfriend, ensuring her safety.

Peering into the Time-Space Well, he saw not his girlfriend working or snacking but being attacked. Ah, Jiang Xingzhuo was bleeding!

Xiao Yi and Little Jia followed the Death God. In an instant, Xiao Yi seemed to see the universe collapsing, paralyzed with fear, while Little Jia collapsed, mouth agape, his soul almost escaping.

Fortunately, the Death God did not vent his anger on them but tore open a rift in space and rushed in.

...

Jiang Xingzhuo sensed the woman's attacks becoming increasingly frantic. It was understandable; the Death God had been lured away, and they feared his sudden return, so they aimed to finish her quickly.

But she could last more than ten minutes.

The attacker's expression turned annoyed, her initial composure giving way to a twisted visage.

At that moment, a flash of insight struck Jiang Xingzhuo, and she remembered the familiar feeling.

"It's you! Creator Goddess!" Jiang Xingzhuo's face finally showed emotion. She understood why this person, despite being so strong, felt so ordinary. She was likely an ordinary person or a weak deity, not a high-ranking deity, but the Creator Goddess had imbued her with divine power, controlling her.

Why did her divine power feel familiar? Because it was the scent that destroyed her world, the scent of her enemy!

The goddess, recognized and her expression twisted for a moment, "Die!"

Light flared intensely, and the crumbling Divine Tower finally collapsed completely. Jiang Xingzhuo suffered severe injuries, spitting out a mouthful of blood. She no longer had enough energy to heal herself. Her feet lost their footing, and she began to fall. However, she remained calm, as she saw the terrifying black mist of the God of Death surge out from the crack, like an enraged beast.

She was somewhat puzzled. The Divine Tower was an internal space of the Overlord System. After its collapse, she wasn't ejected but instead fell. Where was she falling?

Jiang Xingzhuo didn't see behind her, where something white emerged from the bottomless depths, transforming into two enormous white hands reaching towards her.

The God of Death, gripping the attacker's neck, noticed this unusual situation and immediately dragged the attacker down, extending his hand towards Jiang Xingzhuo.

Jiang Xingzhuo, not understanding the situation, also reached out to grab his hand. Her fingertips almost touched the coldness of his, but the pair of white hands behind her moved faster, pulling her body downward.

Wait, this... this...

"No! Stars!!"

As she was engulfed by the light and lost consciousness, Jiang Xingzhuo saw the God of Death's panicked blue eyes.
