Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 517 - 419: The Archmage Loses His Cool!

Hertz’s hesitation immediately provoked the dissatisfaction of the Goddess of Light and the Wood Element God.

These two Gods, one was lofty, the other was Hertz’s direct superior.

In their view, it was Hertz’s honor to have them willing to use him.

Yet Hertz dared to hesitate, a grievous sin.

"Hertz, what are you waiting for?"

The Wood Element God’s face was a bit hard to maintain.

Hertz is a Wood Mage, according to the rules of the Magic Continent, he should be his vassal and follower.

However, Hertz defied his order in front of so many people.

The Wood Element God lost face in front of the other Gods, and immediately bore a grudge against Hertz.

Hertz glanced at the Wood Element God, cursing his bad luck internally.

His original thought was to find a hidden spot to hide once he got up the mountain.

Wait until Zhao Yi settled scores with those other gods, then he’d come out to pick a side.

In the end, these people directly started fighting at the mountain entrance.

Hertz was immediately discovered as soon as he climbed up.

This put him in an extremely passive situation.

Now there’s no way to keep fence-sitting, he can only choose one path and follow it to the end.

Hertz didn’t hesitate for too long, he quickly stepped to Zhao Yi’s side, and respectfully said:

"Teacher, your student is late!"

The current situation was already very clear.

Zhao Yi held the absolute advantage, otherwise the Goddess of Light and the Wood Element God wouldn’t have seemed so agitated upon seeing him.

In contrast, Zhao Yi hadn’t glanced at Hertz from beginning to end.

Obviously, Zhao Yi didn’t regard him as important.

Hertz was no fool, so naturally he understood Zhao Yi’s intentions.

Zhao Yi wasn’t concerned about how Hertz chose sides.

It wasn’t Zhao Yi’s intention to win over Hertz, which showed he was in complete control of the situation.

Simply put, Zhao Yi had the absolute upper hand.

If Hertz sided with the Gods, Zhao Yi wouldn’t mind taking him down too.

The situation was so obvious, Hertz could decide with his heels how to choose.

Whether it was an illusion or not, when Hertz approached Zhao Yi and called out "teacher," he clearly saw a hint of disappointment on Zhao Yi’s face.

Disappointment?

Hertz was momentarily stunned, then his mouth twitched fiercely.

Could it be that Zhao Yi hoped he would go over to the opposite side, just to eliminate him as well?

Hertz recalled Zhao Yi’s previous promise of giving him a Law Fragment.

If Hertz died, that Law Fragment wouldn’t need to be given!

Hertz didn’t stand with the opposite side, hence Zhao Yi appeared very disappointed.

Because he couldn’t dodge repaying his debt.

The more Hertz thought, the more he believed his guess might be right, his expression gradually becoming smug.

The more Zhao Yi showed disdain towards him, the more it proved his choice was correct.

It also demonstrated that Zhao Yi was a man of his word.

Because if Zhao Yi didn’t want to give, he could easily renege, Hertz wasn’t a match anyway.

Yet he showed disappointment, indicating he didn’t plan to renege.

Hertz’s smile couldn’t be contained.

He hadn’t expected an impulsively acknowledged teacher to bring him such a huge reward.

This was essentially a free God position!

While Hertz was joyful, the faces of the Goddess of Light and the other Gods turned dark as a pot’s bottom.

Especially the Wood Element God, he emotionally lost control hearing Hertz call Zhao Yi "teacher," nearly wanting to slap him to death!

"Hertz, have you gone insane?" The Goddess of Light’s expression was unpleasant.

Initially, the Goddess of Light had summoned Hertz, yet he ran off to call Zhao Yi "teacher."

This was practically stomping her face into the ground.

"Very well, I’ve remembered you!"

The Goddess of Light gave Hertz a deep look, as if to etch his appearance in her mind.

Hertz’s scalp tingled instantly.

The radiant church of the Goddess of Light was the largest sect in the Magic World.

The Radiant Church not only had substantial influence among humans but also many followers among elves, dwarves, and other tribes.

With just one command from the Goddess of Light, there would be no place for him anywhere on the continent.

Thinking this, Hertz glanced at Zhao Yi.

All his hopes were pinned on Zhao Yi now.

If Zhao Yi didn’t kill the Goddess of Light, then he was doomed. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Yet Zhao Yi didn’t disappoint Hertz.

Earlier, he had only used defenses to fend off the God’s Forbidden Curse, not because he couldn’t counterattack, but because when they cast Forbidden Curse, the Nine Dragon Seal absorbed their Power of Laws more swiftly.

The Goddess of Light and the Wood Element God were so angry at Hertz, they completely failed to notice their Forbidden Curse’s power was waning.

Though the eight Gods combined could once agitate the sea causing tsunamis, now they could only splash large water droplets on the ocean surface.

Zhao Yi sensed the Nine Dragon Seal had nearly absorbed enough Power of Laws, the remaining power had already fused with these Gods’ Divine Souls, next would be the slow process of absorbing them drop by drop.

So Zhao Yi decided not to waste time.

With a thought, the Nine Dragon Seal trembled violently, an invisible purple wave shot towards the opposing Gods!

Boom!

All Forbidden Curses became ineffective.

The eight Gods lifted their heads simultaneously, staring at Zhao Yi in horror.

Just moments ago, their Forbidden Curse was suppressed by a stronger power of the same type.

For a moment, these Gods almost doubted their eyes.

As Gods, they mastered the highest power of the same type, what power could possibly suppress them?

The Bright God of Magic responded first.

Her eyes widened, looking at Zhao Yi with a face full of shock: "What did you do?"

Other Gods also realized the issue, turning their gazes towards Zhao Yi.

Their eyes were filled with confusion, mystery, shock, and anger.

The Goddess of Light saw Zhao Yi smiling in silence, and her emotions collapsed: "Damn it, did you steal our Power of Laws?"

This statement caused everyone’s expressions to change dramatically.

The Gods underwent shock and rage, while Hertz and several magical creatures showed happiness.

"The Power of Laws is a thing of the grand path, those with virtue occupy it."

Zhao Yi waved dismissively and said, "You couldn’t keep something good, blaming me for taking the Power of Laws simply shows you’re acting against the path and disliked by it! Instead of reflecting on why you’re abhorred by the path, you accuse me of taking the Power of Laws, how absurd!"

The Gods were infuriated by these words.

Zhao Yi not only stole from them but also criticized them for lacking virtue.

It was downright outrageous!

The Goddess of Light shook with rage, her tight armor fluctuating, adding a strange charm.

Only Zhao Yi, upon considering her tens of thousands of years of age, lost interest immediately.

The Goddess of Light, seeing Zhao Yi’s disdainful look, burst in anger.

She summoned all her light power, directing her strongest destructive Forbidden Curse right at Zhao Yi’s head.

"Damn it, die!"

Zhao Yi snapped his fingers, invisible forces immobilized all Gods.

"Alright, let’s end it for today!"
