Chapter 552: Modric Caesar’s Return

When somebody slowly comes out from dark to light, others would naturally follow suit.

Ambitious forces couldn’t help themselves when they saw someone else benefit from the wreckage.

When hungry wolf packs catch the scent of blood, they wouldn’t easily give up.

The powerful nobles and guilds cunningly seized and occupied various assets of the sect.

Even if the sect’s followers wanted to resist, they couldn’t do it without the support of the gods. So, the nobles and guilds acted without restraint. They rushed forward like starving sharks.

They delighted in feasting upon the remains of the sect. The immense benefits even lead to conflicts and wars among various factions.

The already chaotic situation becomes even more turbulent.

The looting of the sects gradually ended not because the major forces suddenly grew a conscience, but because the high-quality resources of the sects had been completely devoured.

Almost all major cities were left with churches with no assets.

Bold individuals plundered the sect’s properties to the last.

In Canglan City, Nami was the first one who acted against the sect.

Under Nami’s guidance, almost sixty percent of the sect’s power was destroyed.

If it weren’t for the swift reaction of the nobles in Canglan City, they might have completely wiped out the sects.

Unexpectedly, the Lavender Business Guild also took decisive action.

Although they couldn’t carry out large-scale operations due to their limited strength, their extraordinary courage allowed them to seize at least twenty percent of the sect’s assets.

The influx of high-quality assets caused the strength of the Lavender Business Guild to grow rapidly.

With Archduke Qing You’s backing, no one dared to go against the Lavender Business Guild.

The main attraction was the Magic Music Box. Since the Lavender Business Guild gained a lot of resources from the sect, the output of the music box continued to rise.

Once they fully assimilated this power, the output could increase even more.

When Xu Yuan received news from Mestre, he was pleasantly surprised by her decisiveness.

Her timely intervention had turned out to be very useful. Xu Yuan didn’t even need to instruct her. She made her own decisions based on her judgment.

If not for their lack of strength, the Lavender Business Guild would have reached new heights.

After this incident, the Lavender Business Guild proposed to separate all production factories to establish a separate trade guild for the Magic Music Box.

The trade guild would be managed by the Lavender Business Guild.

Xu Yuan didn’t say much when he learned the news. He let Mestre make the decision herself.

Mestre had already proven her abilities. She was capable enough to handle things on her own.

As the sky darkened, a figure entered the Lord’s mansion under the escort of guards.

“Your Highness Modric Caesar,” said Su Wan in greeting.

The God of Lies and Deception was draped in a black cloak. It shrouded his face. He looked conflicted as he stared at Su Wan and Xu Yuan.

“The Death Swamp has accumulated enough power for its upgrade,” he said hoarsely.

“I remember you reported that last time,” said Su Wan in confusion.

“The halt in the transformation of the Death Swamp was to allow it to absorb as much power as possible from the heart of the Bloody Shadow Demon,” The God of Lies and Deception said after a pause. “However, in the past two days, the power emanating from the heart of the Bloody Shadow Demon has noticeably weakened, and there is no need to hold back any longer. Given the current progress, the Death Swamp can complete its upgrade.”

Unfortunately, it wasn’t possible to make the Death Swamp undergo another transformation so soon.

“My authority has been stripped. Now I am a regular being with my soul existing in the world. I’m no longer the God of Lies and Deception!” The God of Lies and Deception took a deep breath. “I no longer have control over the Death Swamp.”

He looked bitter. Even if he gave it his all, he could only retain his power for a month at most. He could no longer control the Death Swamp.

“I disagree. You will continue to control it!” Xu Yuan patted the God of Lies and Deception on the shoulder.

“Then, I will follow your arrangements.” The God of Lies and Deception looked at the resolute Xu Yuan. He finally let out a long sigh.

His current power wasn’t enough to control the situation at the Death Swamp. He requested for a hero to assist him.

The God of Lies and Deception bowed to Xu Yuan and smiled bitterly. He left the Lord’s Mansion with lighter steps than when he had entered it.

“It’s not just you. All the gods have lost their authority and their power,” said a voice behind him as he reached the threshold of the door. “A new era is dawning, but the loss of something doesn’t mean it’s gone forever. I will help you regain your authority, but remember, whether mortal or a god, you are part of the territory.”

The God of Lies and Deception looked conflicted. He didn’t look back and walked out of the Lord’s Mansion.

The face hidden in the shadow of the robe revealed an unreadable expression.

The territory was still bustling with the construction of various new buildings. It was very lively.

The God of Lies and Deception recalled the days of the past. He had been full of hope and longing. His emotions stirred within him.

Everything around him suddenly became familiar. Today, he had a new identity. He was a resident of the territory.

Even after losing his authority, the territory still embraced him. He felt a sense of belonging.

The city under his feet was no longer a shackle. It was no longer a tool for him to regain his strength. It was his home. It was something worth protecting.

Losing one’s power didn’t equal death, after all. Even if he became a mortal, the God of Lies and Deception was still the highest existence in the territory.

Hope was always the most important thing, especially when there was a chance to regain his power in the future.

Su Wan suddenly realized something. She noticed something unusual.

The system prompt still referred to the power-deprived Modric Caesar as the God of Lies and Deception.

‘What does that mean?’

Even though he had lost his power, was he still considered a god?

Or perhaps, the gods would remain with their titles until they were replaced.

Did this imply that other gods were in the same situation?

At first glance, the information did not feel very useful, but Su Wan couldn’t ignore it.

She discussed it with Xu Yuan to prepare for its implications in the future..
