In a distant galaxy, several hundred star systems away from the Swan Goddess Constellation Sector, was the territory of an infamous Oni God, Kishin Douji.

At his headquarter planet, which he had created when he ascended to godhood, Kishin Douji lied on a grassland, gazing at the sky.

At a glance, he looked similar to a human with two short horns on his forehead. He was a handsome and tall man with a defined physique, having less than 10% body fat, 195cm tall, and 110kg in weight. The muscle was so toned that he could potentially become a bodybuilder or a professional wrestler.

Despite his youthful and athletic look, he was as old as archangels and many ancient gods. He was even older than Cernun and Clem!

Surrounding him were women from various races, but most of them were Oni. Two of his wives were giving him a mouth service.

One of them was a little girl, who was also a dao god from the Yuan Clan.

Yuan Hua!

Currently, her mind had been broken, and her soul was branded.

Now, she was one of Kishin Douji’s concubines.

Kishin Douji’s lifestyle was similar to what Miaomiao had dreamed of, the eternal leisure life with his beautiful wives.

However, Kishin Douji was more ambitious.

While Kishin Douji was gazing at the sky, he used his Divine Sense to observe his vessels, followers, and apostles through their vision.

The focus of his attention was the vision of a world guardian, who was responsible to guard Heavenly Goose Planet.

While enjoying the blowjob, Kishin Douji questioned his subordinate about his order.

‘What’s the result?’

The world guardian’s mind trembled as he tried his best not to be nervous, ‘I’m sorry, Your Holiness. I’ve failed you.’

‘So, Mao Miaomiao can defeat his shadow from the mirror during the tribulation? Did you make sure that you constantly interrupt the tribulation with lightning bolts with random element essence? Did you adjust the shadow’s strength?’

‘His toughness and endurance are on par with an immortal with a completed Constellations, Your Holiness. He can self-regenerate as long as his brain and his soul are intact.’

‘Then, why didn’t you destroy his head and end it?’

‘I tried… many times. But he was just that tough.’

Kishin Douji sighed, ‘Then, did you break the law of that woman’s world?’

‘No. Everything I did was under the scope of the local world’s laws and limitations.’

‘Good. Well, if he survives, then he survives. Don’t think too much about it. It was my mistake that I underestimated Mao Miaomiao’s power.’

‘…T-Thank you, Your Holiness.’

‘Anyway, what about Wei Yuan? Have you managed to CONVINCE her?’

‘T-That… I failed as well.’

Kishin Douji frowned. He suddenly sat up, causing his concubines to panic, thinking that they had done something bad to their master.

Unable to hold back his emotion, Kishin Douji voiced out his anger.

“I gave you the Curse Stone of Corruption! No immortals in a billion years can overcome its corruption power! Are you telling me that a mere mortal Oni can actually resist that ancient artifact’s power!?”

‘I-I-I have no idea how! H-Her soul is too strange! She seems to be… experienced with the brainwashing power! Her soul never flinched when the darkness tried to devour her! Instead, she stole the power!’

“…”

Kishin Douji closed his eyes and dispersed his killing intent. Then, he patted his concubines, including Yuan Hua, to calm them down while he suppressed his anger.

“Tell me, what is Wei Yuan’s current cultivation base and her ability? How far has she grown?”

‘From the scanner, she can use all basic element Qi, a few advanced element Qi, and… the Chaos Element, Your Holiness. I think this might be the reason!’

“CHAOS ELEMENT!? ARE YOU SURE!!”

This time, Kishin Douji stood up. His eyes flared with greed and desire, “DOUBLE CHECK AT ONCE!! CONFIRM THIS INFORMATION ASAP!!”

‘Y-Yes, Your Holiness!’

The communication was suddenly cut off. Kishin Douji stopped playing with his concubines and put on his clothes, planning to visit Heavenly Goose Planet personally.

As if someone had predicted Kishin Douji’s next move, a gas being with glowing tentacle wings in a white hooded robe appeared and stood 10 meters away from Kishin Douji.

Sensing the intruder, the Oni God widened his eyes and turned around.

BOOM

The place where the mysterious being had landed disappeared as if it was consumed by a black hole.

Half of Kishin Douji’s world was destroyed along with all living beings and his concubines!

However, the gas being was still intact. He stood still, unaffected by the Law Power of the Oni God.

The archangel-like being wrote a shining silver curve line on his face, making it a smug smile. He also put two dots on his face to represent cute eyes.

“Quite moody as usual, Shin-chan.”

“Devil!!”

Seeing that the Devil had paid him a visit, Kishin Douji clicked his tongue and snapped his finger.

Instantly, the destroyed world was repaired and his dead concubines were resurrected.

“Bah, what do you want?”

“I’ve come to bargain!”

“What am I? Dormammu? Anyway, what’s the deal this time?”

The Devil rewrote his face once more. This time, he wrote an angry face.

“I saw what you did. Leave Mao Miaomiao and his wives alone.”

“Impossible. I need Wei Yuan as my Dao Companion! She has just comprehended the Chaos Element, and she can give birth to exceptional children for me!”

“If you keep messing with my boy, I’ll withdraw my forces from the outer dimensions and tell Joshua not to interfere with Xie Qingtian’s movements!”

“Hah! Let him come! I’m not afraid of Xie Qingtian!”

“Have you forgotten how many of your counterparts died by Xie Qingtian’s hands? Do you want to repeat the other timeline events?”

Kishin Douji’s face sank. He solemnly glared at the Devil, “Xie Tian is dead. Outer Gods and Xie Qingtian are no longer a threat to me! Your threat is no longer valid, Devil!”

“Then, have you consult with Samsara whether Xie Tian’s soul has been reincarnated yet?”

Kishin Douji widened his eyes and seized the Devil’s robe, “YOU!! YOU REINCARNATED THAT BLASPHEMOUS SOUL!?”

The Devil rewrote his smug smile on his face, “Well, would you adhere to my warning, or would you call my bluff? Pick one!”

“…”

Kishin Douji glared into the gas eyes of the Devil in resentment. Then, he shoved the latter away, “Fine! I’ll leave those mortals alone! Happy now!?”

“Good,” The Devil patted his clothes and disinfected them with spray alcohol. Then, he washed his gas hands with soap even though it did nothing to his hands.

The Devil’s annoying gesture angered Kishin Douji further. Yet, the Oni God maintained his composure.

“Why are you treasuring Mao Miaomiao so much, Devil? I thought you used them for the sake of killing Xie Tian?”

“Who knows,” The Devil shrugged. “Maybe, Mao Miaomiao is probably an illegitimate son of mine?”

“Bullshit. A Combat Droid like you can’t reproduce! What’s your goal for raising him!?”

The Devil leaned closer to Kishin Douji. However, he didn’t need to recorrect his facial expression as his real eyes inside the dark gas briefly appeared, “Killing you and destroy your infinite regression power, my dear regressor.”

BOOM

Kishin Douji unleashed his power again. This time, the whole planet that he had been standing on was instantly devoured by a black hole, killing all lives.

However, Kishin Douji could still hear the mocking laughter of the Devil, but his body was nowhere to be found.

‘You’re not the only one with that regression ability, Shin-chan. Hihihihihihi!!’

“BASTARD!!”

As if Kishin Douji’s reverse scale was pulled, he bellowed in frustration, destroying several planets of his sector by an accident.

Yet, a few minutes later, the Oni God reconstructed the destroyed planet and resurrected his followers and people. His luck and providence power were weakened temporarily as a consequence of his unruly actions.

…

The Devil returned to the Constellations of Joshua and his allies. As soon as he returned to this private residence on an inhabitable planet, he was greeted by Uriel, who wore the same clothes and had the same appearance.

“Was it fun provoking Kishin Douji over and over again?”

The Devil laughed, “If I don’t, that bastard will descend to that planet and kill my boy. Now that the aggro is on me, I can rest assured.”

“Fighting both Xie Qingtian and Kishin Douji at the same time will be impossible even for you. Do you want me to ask other gods to help you?”

“Nah. I’ll be fine. I did this all the time.”

“Don’t overestimate yourself, Devil. Many ancient gods and our colleagues died because of this type of attitude.”

“I know. I died a lot in the other timelines, too. I know.”

As soon as the Devil mentioned TIMELINE, Uriel was interested.

“But you never told me what happened in the other timeline though. What will happen to Xie Qingtian and Kishin Douji in the future now that Xie Tian is dead?”

The Devil sighed and gazed to the starry sky, “It’s going to be either a dimensional calamity or a happy ending. Everything depends on that boy now.”

“Is that why you have been protecting Mao Miaomiao?”

“He’s the important variable factor for crippling Kishin Douji and Xie Qingtian. If he can kill Xie Tian, he might be the solution to our answers.”

Despite being powerful, the Devil couldn’t descend to the mortal world to kill a few individuals or kidnap a soul as there was an unspoken rule.

If anyone were to violate the pact, the violator would have been hunted down by other gods. Moreover, killing a mortal would damage their Providence, Dao, Karma, and Universe Law Power.

Nobody wanted to be weakened by harming a mortal. Instead of killing them with their own hands, they always used proxies, such as vessels, as their pawns to eliminate their foes.

Though Uriel didn’t understand what the Devil had been scheming, he agreed with him anyway.

After all, Devil always acted first when the universe was in crisis. He was like a hero to all gods and archangels, even though they quarreled most of the time.

Both archangels summoned their system screens to view the live stream of Miaomiao’s channel. Every time Miaomiao did something stupid, it put a smile on their faces.

“I wonder if I should give him a prank quest…” The Devil typed several lines in the menu, writing a new program and an algorithm for a quest.

“Make it possible for a mortal, please. Oh, where are the last two pieces of murals at the moment? Mao Miaomiao already has five, right?”

“Ah, one is with the Zhang, and the other one should be with the Meng, I think.”

“Meng!? Since when did the Meng Clan possess it!?”

“I stole it from the Guan Clan and handed it to them a few months ago.”

“…”

“Miaomiao needs to kill Meng Xin next, so I’m just giving him a little push!”

“Devil, you’re an asshole.”

“Thank you!”

“That’s not a compliment!!”

While both archangels had been messing around, ten thousand immortals surrounded their planet. They could hear the voice transmission of their leader.

‘Devil, the heretic of all Heaven Realms, you are under arrest for destroying the following souls; Xie Cai, Xing Zhong, Xie De, Xie Ye, Xie Tong, and Xie Tian! Surrender, and we shall bring you to the court of Samsara and Yama to give you justice!!’

“Justice my ass. All of them are descendants and agents of Xie Qingtian! I fucking killed them for you!” The Devil scoffed.

“I guess everything is under your calculation. Yama and Samsara are acting against us even though we are protecting them from Xie Qingtian and the Outer Gods. Should we just retreat our forces and let them fight each other?” Uriel sighed.

“That’s actually a bad idea. If Kishin Douji is killed when his regressor ability is still intact, our entire timeline and universe will be destroyed as a sacrifice to activate his regression ability. Then, a random mortal or immortal will be dragged along with that power and creating more ridiculous protagonists in the new timeline dimension. We can’t allow that.”

The Devil rotated his shoulders to warm up. Then, he flew to the sky, confronting the immortal army of Samsara.

“For now, we wait for our variable factor to grow. If you have free time, Uriel, help me protect Mao Miaomiao when I’m busy. I have to keep Kishin Douji, Xie Qingtian, and Samsara’s attention on me until he becomes an immortal.”

“Alright.”

Uriel sighed. He vanished from the planet and reappeared in the Swan Goddess Constellation Sector, watching the planet of Heavenly Goose, which had been sealed inside so many arrays.

This was a public planet, where all gods could send their vessels to play. Every god had to contribute one of their constellations or a habitable planet to the society, and the Swan Goddess, Uriel, Joshua, and many dao gods were no exception.

Millions of worlds like Heaven Goose Planet, where dao gods and immortals influenced the mortals, existed everywhere. However, it was a coincidence that many big shots had decided to play around with this planet.

BOOM

Although Uriel was far from Joshua Constellation Sector, he could still faintly sensed the destructive forces of the Devil. By now, the army of Samsara should have been annihilated, and more gods under Yama and Samsara would be deployed to capture the Devil.

Everything would be chaotic now.

‘I guess I have to watch over you in his stead, Miaomiao. Get stronger and come up soon. We’re waiting for you.’
