The blow delivered by Jin Shanshun was incredibly sudden, directly engulfing Ye Qiu. It was only then that Cain reacted, springing into the air, leaving behind a fleeting shadow, as he charged to Jin Shanshun’s front, grabbing both his arms, preparing to pierce his heart. A voice cried out, "Wait!" echoing in Cain’s mind, halting his extended hand in midair, as he turned, perplexed, towards the back. Ye Qiu emerged from Jin Shanshun’s attack, the fierce strike having posed no threat to him. "Master, why don’t you kill him?" Cain asked. He couldn’t fathom Ye Qiu’s thoughts, this subordinate had clearly betrayed them, why would the master spare his life? "He’s not doing it on purpose, he’s being controlled by someone," Ye Qiu revealed the truth, leaving Cain startled. "There’s a soul presence in his mind, that soul is the mastermind behind all this, isn’t that right, God?" Ye Qiu spoke as he gazed at the statue in the center of the church square, a white male statue standing proudly. "How did you discover this?" Qin Feng appeared, looking at Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu, who also saw Qin Feng being controlled, smiled slightly, "No matter where your soul hides, I can find it, never mind those around me." "Haha... As expected of the world’s number one expert, even such methods couldn’t be hidden from you." Qin Feng laughed heartily, with God’s soul residing in the depths of his mind, and Qin Feng’s soul suppressed long ago. "I thought you’d perish on the moon, but you actually returned to Earth, what a surprise!" God spoke slowly through Qin Feng’s body. Jin Shanshun, Qin Feng, and Zijing Mouse were all uncontrollable, with God’s soul presence in their minds, manipulating them. Ye Qiu had noticed something was amiss the moment he saw the three, considering his past interactions with Jin Shanshun and the others, Jin Shanshun would always consult Ye Qiu’s opinion before acting against enemies, but today, Jin Shanshun’s unusual behavior alerted Ye Qiu to something being wrong. They should have come to the Vatican to find him, yet seeing him appear only invoked surprise, with no genuine joy visible on their faces. Based on these points, Ye Qiu sensed considerable changes in them, but he didn’t immediately expose the truth, rather waiting for them to show their true intentions before countering. Thus, when Jin Shanshun volunteered at that moment, Ye Qiu remained vigilant within, and sure enough, Jin Shanshun suddenly attacked him. Ye Qiu stood unscathed and said to Qin Feng, "Speaking of which, I should thank you. Without you, I wouldn’t have gone for a stroll on the moon, but fortunately, I, Ye, am favored by fortune and lived well, so today I shall repay your kindness." Repaying ’kindness’ was obviously intended ironically, as Ye Qiu pronounced the words intentionally. "Seeking revenge on me? Haha... I am currently within the minds of your three loyal subordinates; do you wish to battle me in their minds?" Qin Feng’s voice was filled with confidence, with nothing to fear. Ye Qiu furrowed his brows tightly; the reason he hadn’t acted was precisely this point, he couldn’t treat their minds as a battlefield, or even if he expelled that soul presence, it resulted in losing more than gaining, as they’d either become foolish or turn into imbeciles. Utilizing Ye Qiu’s most valued subordinates against him, this tactic was truly sinister, rendering Ye Qiu inhibited in making any moves. Otherwise, he might inadvertently kill his subordinates. Facing such a situation, Ye Qiu hadn’t found a suitable approach for the moment. The soul of God, residing in their minds, wouldn’t leave easily unless Ye Qiu was willing to sacrifice them. "What do you think? How do you intend to duel with me?" God laughed heartily, without needing assistance from his followers, merely employing Jin Shanshun, Qin Feng, and Zijing Mouse’s bodies, leaving Ye Qiu in a dilemma. "Release them, and I won’t hold any grudges for past grievances," Ye Qiu suddenly proposed. "Are you petitioning me? Haha... I never thought the world’s number one would bow to anyone," God exclaimed loudly.

Ye Qiu responded indifferently, returning the belittling insult. Sure enough, God’s expression changed immediately, reflected in the angry faces of Jin Shanshun, Qin Feng, and Zijing Mouse. "Ye Qiu... Your audacity to speak to me is unprecedented in this world." "You’re courageous, not considering me as a god." "Even with your subordinates under my control, that doesn’t silence you; the moment I leave their minds, I’ll face your relentless attack." "These three subordinates are loyal to you, ever since your disappearance they’ve searched tirelessly for you, if they knew their young master wouldn’t stoop, wouldn’t they feel coldhearted?" "Because of their loyalty, I didn’t kill them, nor did I send them to the moon like I did to you. If you remained on the moon, these three would be my most loyal followers, spreading my light throughout China, and I would gain countless followers." God imagined, speaking grandly and passionately. Suddenly, with a shift in focus, God’s voice came forth from the mouths of the three, "But you appeared unexpectedly, if not killing you, how would I ease their propagation of my glory in China?" "I give you a choice; either these three subordinates die, or you submit to me, obeying my commands henceforth." "Ten seconds to consider, choose how you will respond!" Ye Qiu’s brows furrowed deeply; this Western god was using such means to coerce him. Then, Jin Shanshun, Qin Feng, and Zijing Mouse would be killed by God, considering God’s power, killing them simultaneously wasn’t hard, especially being entrenched in their minds. He would have to follow this entity’s whims, becoming God’s servant henceforth. With only two choices: let the three die, or become a slave. Neither was an option Ye Qiu desired, yet pondering an alternative to resolve the current standoff. Ye Qiu faced a dilemma. He had to rescue Jin Shanshun, Qin Feng, and Zijing Mouse. Yet he wouldn’t become God’s servant, obeying him and under his arrangements. Ye Qiu’s eyes sparkled, determination emerging within. "Have you decided? Will you let these three young fellows live, or will they perish by your decision?" God asked, chuckling.
