Chapter 1043
Avyn was stupefied that Tang Shaoyang still could chuckle and mentioned it nonchalantly that a God might come after him.“What are you doing here then? We should run and return to Earth!”
Tang Shaoyang kept his eyes on the crack in the sky; he then shook his head. “You return to the city and tell everyone not to chase. No, tell them to quit the tower if a God really comes out from the crack. I will lure God away from the city. This God Rank comes for me, so everyone in the city should be safe.”
“No. If you want to fight God, then let me fight with you. I don’t want to escape.” Avyn was adamant about staying with Tang Shaoyang. “You promised to fight the Gods with me!”
“This is an order, Avyn, and I don’t plan to fight them. I just want to lure God away. I just need to buy time until the System notices an anomaly happens. The System would not stay still if someone violated its rules. This is an order!” Tang Shaoyang remained firm, and he told her truthfully. He was not planning to fight whatever came from the crack. He just wanted to lure the thing behind the crack away from the city, bringing the disaster away from his main base.
Avyn was about to refuse, but the crack opened. A blinding light came out from the crack, causing everyone to look away from the sky. Tang Shaoyang was the only one with his eyes open; his Spirit Eyes kept watching the sky. He saw three figures come out of the crack, three figures covered in Holy Energy. There was no need for Tang Shaoyang to guess; he was sure the three individuals were God Rank from the Divine Church.
At the same time, the sky rumbled as lightning struck the three figures. It was unknown who attacked the three figures in the sky, but they easily blocked the lightning strike.
“Make it quick. The lightning will get stronger, and I don’t think we can’t block more than ten lightning without getting hurt.”
Tang Shaoyang overheard the conversation between the three. From the three figures, the man on the right spoke to the figure in the middle of the three.
“Now, Avyn!” Tang Shaoyang pushed Avyn as he dashed toward the forest. His eight pairs of wings flapped, accelerating away from the three figures.
Returning to the Earth might be the best choice on the surface, but Tang Shaoyang deemed it the worst idea. The three figures were God Ranks, and they should be able to destroy the barrier easily and enter the city. Once that happened, they could follow him through the portal, following to the Earth. Leading the three God Ranks to Earth was for sure the worst decision. The only way to avoid that disaster was by leading them away from the city, so Earth would be safe.
He was not a hero, but he had the people he loved on Earth, so he did not want to involve them in an impossible fight. Since he was the three God Ranks’ target, they would follow him instead of attacking his territory in the Starter City.
“Why are you dozing off, Gungnir? Chase him. We don’t have much time unless you want to receive the System’s Divine Lightning with your body!” The same man urged Gungnir, who kept looking back and forth between the city and Tang Shaoyang.
“What about the Earth? This is our chance to invade the Earth? A world that gives birth to such a little monster is worth conquering, no?” Gungnir responded with hesitation.
“What about Tang Shaoyang, then? Let him escape and come after us later? Our target is Tang Shaoyang, not Earth!” The man got angry.
Bzzzt!
Gungnir’s figure turned into lightning and chased after Tang Shaoyang. He was considering attacking Earth’s territory and lured Tang Shaoyang into them. However, his friends did not have the same thoughts as him.
“Where is he?” Gungnir chased Tang Shaoyang’s direction while his two friends followed him.
Meanwhile, all the Divine Church’s people were kneeling on the ground with their heads touched to the ground. They were giving their worship to their Gods, who came to save them from the heathen.

“This little monster is quite fast,” Gungnir complained as he barely saw Tang Shaoyang’s silhouette after a five-minute chase. He was shocked that Tang Shaoyang was so fast, even though he, who was a God Rank, had a hard time catching up.
“Let’s stop this silly chase and run.” The sky suddenly turned dark, then lightning struck Tang Shaoyang.

However, Tang Shaoyang dodged the incoming lightning with a slight move to the side. With his Spirit Eyes, he could see the incoming attack and easily dodged the incoming lightning.
At the same time, golden lightning also struck Gungnir and his two friends. His friend came above and blocked the lightning for him. This was the third System’s Divine Lightning, and the lightning got stronger and stronger. That was the punishment for those who violated the rule.
“What are you doing, Gungnir? Stop him!” His friends urged Gungnir.
“I tried, but he dodged all my lightning!” Gungnir retorted. He was also annoyed that a mere Ancient Rank could dodge his lightning. It could be seen that Tang Shaoyang avoided all the lightning.
“Let’s help him to stop the heathen.” The God Rank, who rarely spoke, finally opened his mouth. He took out a glowing arrow and pulled the string. “Use your wind to restrict his movement, Windra.”
The man called Windra motioned his hands toward Tang Shaoyang’s direction. Dozens of tornadoes suddenly surrounded Tang Shaoyang, blocking his path. Then the one with the bow released his arrow.
Swoosh!
The arrow left a golden trail, splitting the cloud and accelerating toward Tang Shaoyang.
Tang Shaoyang stopped his run and turned around. He sensed the arrow was following, not just moving in a straight line. He swung the Titan Blade toward the arrow, and the arrow disappeared into his sword. Then he followed with a slash toward the tornado; a bigger crack opened and sucked the tornadoes around him.
However, he stopped his run and gave a chance for the three figures to catch up.
“Can’t run anymore, huh, Little Run?” Gungnir stopped twenty meters away from Tang Shaoyang, smiling smugly.
