Lin Tianming truly didn't expect that his visit to Bright Holy Mountain in Spiritual Power Divine Country to discuss the alliance would allow him to reunite with both Sofia and Lianghua.
One could say that it was an unexpected delight.
And the host here, the Light Goddess, spoke more pleasantly than the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King, making Lin Tianming quite comfortable staying here.
Unconsciously, Lin Tianming had already spent three days here.
He remarked with emotion, "These three days have been very comfortable, without the slightest feeling of being an imposition. If only the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King was as easy to talk to as the Light Goddess!"
Ye Qingxue lay in Lin Tianming's embrace, sitting together with him in a scenic spot on Bright Holy Mountain, basking in the joy of his pampering.
Sofia sat to Lin Tianming's left, and Lianghua to his right, their time together harmonious, always seeming to fly by too quickly.
In a blink, another day was about to pass.
Sofia voiced her agreement with Lin Tianming's recent comment about the Light Goddess.
"The Light Goddess indeed has a very pleasant personality. Lianghua and I have received a lot of care from her!"
Ye Qingxue also deeply concurred, and any wariness she had felt previously, when the Light Goddess had dressed in front of Lin Tianming, disappeared completely.
"I too think the Light Goddess is quite remarkable. Although the Angel Xingyao and her group are now on our side, they were initially not easy to deal with. It took Brother Tianming a lot of effort to turn them from enemies into allies. In terms of being easy to talk to, the Light Goddess is unmatched!"
"I feel the same way. She speaks nicely, without any pretense, and I have a great admiration for the Light Goddess."
Lianghua felt the same, and nobody found any issue with the Light Goddess.
Thus, the four of them enjoyed their leisure time there.
From time to time, members arranged by the Light Goddess from Bright Holy Mountain would bring them food suitable for cultivation.
A picture of serene contentment, as if in peaceful times.
Bright Holy Mountain, as a holy land for those who pursue Holy Light and purity, truly gives off an impression of a paradise, where both the scenery and the people make one never want to leave.
"It's time to go back and rest, Qingxue, Lianghua, Sofia. We shouldn't overindulge in fun!"
Hearing Lin Tianming's suggestion, Ye Qingxue, Sofia, and Lianghua agreed, returning with him.
Midway, Lin Tianming remembered that he had been there for three days, and besides initially mentioning the alliance on the first day, it hadn't been brought up since.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming said to the three women, "You go back to your rooms to rest. I need to visit the Light Goddess to discuss the matter of the alliance!"
Knowing that Lin Tianming was off to attend to important matters, Ye Qingxue and the others didn't object and let him go.
Following his memory, Lin Tianming arrived at the Light Goddess's sleeping chamber to find that the doors were ajar, not fully closed.
However, it was dark inside the chamber just like outside, lit only by the faint moonlight.
Though he could have entered directly, considering that she was Fairy Qing Lei's friend and had taken good care of him and Ye Qingxue during this time, Lin Tianming still knocked on the door.
"Lady Divine, are you asleep? I have something I'd like to discuss with you!"
After a moment, the pleasing voice of the Light Goddess emanated from within the chamber.
"Come in if you have something to say, I haven't slept yet."
The Light Goddess was still so approachable!
With that sentiment in his heart, Lin Tianming pushed the door and entered the Light Goddess's sleeping chamber.
The Light Goddess was lying on her side just as she was when Lin Tianming first saw her.
Only this time, it was not daytime, but nighttime.
The chaste moonlight showered down on the Light Goddess's large bed, making her, dressed only in enough fabric to cover key areas, appear even softer and more delicate.
Although the Light Goddess was very beautiful and kind to him, Lin Tianming still reminded himself to stay calm deep down.
Suppressing the almost overwhelming surge of excitement, Lin Tianming approached the Light Goddess.
Seeing him come over, the Light Goddess smiled slightly and asked casually, "Have you enjoyed your stay on my Bright Holy Mountain these past three days?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming shared his true feelings.
"Mm, these past three days have been very comfortable, and I owe it all to Lady Divine's hospitality!"
Listening to Lin Tianming say that he had a comfortable time at her place, the Light Goddess's smile grew even wider.
"As long as you're comfortable, that's good. You were introduced to me by Fairy Qing Lei, and I certainly will take good care of you. Given my relationship with Fairy Qing Lei, you and the girls can stay and play here as long as you like! If there's nothing else, you should go back and rest well. It's getting late, and even Gods need to balance work and rest!"
The Light Goddess's words felt like a warm breeze to Lin Tianming, subtly conveying an unquestionable authority.
Lin Tianming subconsciously turned to leave.
But as soon as he turned, he remembered that he hadn't yet discussed the matter of the alliance and couldn't leave.
With this thought, Lin Tianming turned back to face the Light Goddess.
"Lady Divine, the reason I came to see you was actually to discuss the matter of an alliance that I've wanted to talk to you about three days ago. Do you think your Bright Holy Mountain would like to join our alliance to prepare for the fight against the Deceit God?"
"The matter of the alliance, huh?"
"Yes, exactly. Fairy Sister Qing Lei must have mentioned it to you, right? I believe in your profound sense of justice, and that you…"
This time, just like three days ago, before Lin Tianming could finish speaking, the Light Goddess interrupted him.
"Fairy Qing Lei did indeed mention it to me. If the Deceit God World really fully descends, it will indeed be a crisis affecting the Three Ascension Divine Kingdoms and will be far more terrifying than ten thousand years ago!"
Although his words were cut off, Lin Tianming felt a hint of joy upon hearing the Light Goddess's analysis, believing that she would agree.
Just when Lin Tianming thought the Light Goddess would consent, she changed the subject.
"I understand the severity of the situation if it were to happen, but don't rush, I'm a bit tired now. Tianming, let's talk about this another day, shall we?"
The Light Goddess's words seemed to possess a kind of magical power that made it hard for Lin Tianming to refuse.
"Alright then, we'll talk another day. I'll head back now, and you rest well, Lady Divine!"
After Lin Tianming left her chamber, the Light Goddess's lips curled upwards slightly.
"Fairy Qing Lei, if this Lin Tianming is like this… Even if you and I are close friends, I would never stake the future of my Bright Holy Mountain or the entirety of my Spiritual Power Divine Country on him."
To be honest, the Light Goddess was really disappointed with Lin Tianming's performance over these three days.
The reason Lin Tianming only mentioned the matter of the alliance on the first day and then delayed it until now was not his own fault.
It was a trial she had deliberately set for Lin Tianming.
Her words contained a portion of the Light Law power, making Lin Tianming subconsciously want to listen to her.
Paired with the attentive care she had given Lin Tianming over the past three days, this trial aimed to wear down his will, causing him to become immersed in it.
She had tested Lin Tianming for three days, and even if he realized something was wrong after that time and felt she was deliberately delaying the alliance talks, it would still be considered a failure of the trial.
"Immersed in the seemingly harmonious and beautiful illusion I've created for him, even forgetting his true purpose for coming here, this Lin Tianming, who only enjoys pleasure, seems to have exaggerated his capabilities!"
The Light Goddess positioned her graceful body to lie flat again, and just as she was about to fall asleep, the silhouette of Lin Tianming unexpectedly appeared directly above her bed, inverted.
With a smile that was not quite a smile, he looked at her.
"Lady Divine, do you enjoy the feeling of manipulating others at your whim without their knowledge, calling it a trial and test, and as an outsider, standing on a high ground and looking down to critique from above?"
