Shadow Hack - Chapter 625
Chapter 625: God’s Test
Brunhilda took a deep breath and glanced at Li Yunmu’s rebellious appearance. Upon seeing it, she lowered herself even more and said softly to Odin, “My father, I am willing to receive any heavenly tribulation. I only hope that father gives his blessings to this wedding.”
What? Brunhilda had surprisingly taken the initiative to agree to the wedding? This was out of Li Yunmu’s expectations. Moreover, based on her the determined expression on her face, she had probably made a firm resolution long ago.
Li Yunmu could make out from Brunhilda’s eyes that she was actually a very emotional person. In the end, she still made a choice between Scandinavia’s dignity and personal affection.
When she heard that her elder brother had broken the fetters of Scandinavia, she was quite moved. She also became somewhat suspicious about what exactly was the prestige of Scandinavia which she had protecting for so long.
Why could elder brother fight for his happiness, but she couldn’t do the same? She was somewhat unwilling, but didn’t dare to casually speak about this unwillingness in her heart.
Thus, she could only vent her dissatisfaction by protecting the mortal in front of her father. She knelt on the ground, but didn’t feel the slightest bit of regret. Instead she was extremely proud of her action; at least she could finally comply with her heart’s wishes.
How couldn’t Li Yunmu not know the consequences of Brunhilda’s actions? If it was that easy to endure heavenly retribution, why didn’t the countless mortals and gods who had fallen in love with each other have had a good ending?
He didn’t wish for Brunhilda to sacrifice her life for his sake, so he had to do something to stop Odin’s fury!
Sure enough, Odin was extremely furious and loudly bellowed at Brunhilda. “Thou understand that this is a disgrace towards Scandinavia!”
Odin’s voice was extremely imposing, because of which Brunhilda, who was kneeling on the ground, felt her whole body shudder slightly. If Odin blamed her, then she might even be given corporal punishment.
As expected, Odin lifted Brunhilda up with both hands.
Brunhilda felt suffocated, and her face turned completely red. Could it be that her father truly intended to kill her? For trying to obtain lifelong happiness? This was truly an irony!
Throughout all those years, she had been protecting the dignity and honor of Scandinavia, but in the end, she still had to fight against her father for her own matters. What was a god? What then was a mortal? Could they truly not be together?
But she couldn’t deceive the love in her heart. At last, she clearly understood why her elder brother had been unable to leave the mortal woman after falling in love with her!
Because no one can control these matters!
Seeing that Brunhilda had been lifted by Odin, Li Yunmu filled with fury and loudly roared at Odin, “Put her down for me! Otherwise, I won’t be polite toward you! Without caring whether you are Odin or whoever! PUT! HER! DOWN! FOR! ME!”
Odin disdainfully glanced at Li Yunmu and sneered. “Mortal, this is an internal matter of Scandinavia in which you can’t get involved!”
Odin’s other hand rushed out, advancing toward Li Yunmu as if he was about to get rid of him!
This was the so-called divine power which could shake the world. With a slight wave of hand, the entire Land of Ice began to crack. If Li Yunmu hadn’t reacted quickly, his body would have been crushed by the shock.
Rage filled Li Yunmu, who had been resentful toward Odin from the start. Gradually, energy condensed in his body, and his terrifying might cut through the ground. His body suddenly erupted with strength, and a monsterous battle intent arose within him.
Houu!
Li Yunmu transformed into a blade, and his shadows followed after, surrounding him as they transformed into countless blade projections. At that moment, there was only one thought in his mind, and it was to kill that fat Odin sitting in front of him and rescue Brunhilda.
The blade sliced down, and another one in which all the shadows had combined did the same. As the two blades fell, Odin used his enormous hand to barely stop Li Yunmu’s powerful attack.
Odin raised the corner of his mouth and threw a punch which crushed the entire frozen land. Li Yunmu used Shadow Carapace to avoid this calamity and arrived behind Odin, wanting to stun him with an attack.
But his intention was seen through by Odin, who turned around and threw another punch. The space of the Land of Ice was quickly ripped apart.
Seeing the battle between the mortal and Odin, Sleipnir was left speechless by shock.
When Brunhilda, who was being held by Odin by her neck, saw Li Yunmu trading blows with her father, a special sensation rose in her heart. Unknowingly, a sparkling teardrop slid down from her eye.
This… what sort of feeling was this?
Li Yunmu was being forced back by Odin, so his eyes turned red and his next step formed in his mind. He spared no effort to use Tyrannical Cross-Shaped Arms when Odin’s arm clasped around his petite body.
Odin was an enormous man and was finding it increasingly more difficult to move in front of the agile Li Yunmu. Not only that, he was still forced to defend against the attacks of the shadows surrounding Li Yunmu. Although they instantly scattered from his attacks, they quickly reformed and continued to attack him.
Finally, a hint of cold sweat appeared on Odin’s forehead. The mortal surprisingly possessed such formidable strength? Although if his divine awareness had recovered completely, the mortal would have been killed a long time ago.
But in the end, the opponent had only attacked him to save his daughter. Actually, his heart had cleared up by then. He had only wanted to test the mortal’s love for his daughter. Now seeing Li Yunmu attack like a bloodthirsty animal, he was completely convinced in his heart.
Li Yunmu took that moment to ruthlessly spat out, “Give me half a year, and I will become a god! I will gain a spot among the ranks of gods, and at that time, I will request Brunhilda’s hand in marriage from you!
Upon hearing Li Yunmu’s words, Odin’s complexion changed slightly. But only slightly, and it regained its former imposingness right after.
Brunhilda hadn’t thought that Li Yunmu would make such a promise. She endlessly rejoiced in her heart, and finally a hint of a smile which was rarely seen covered her face. Previously, she would never smile, but after getting to know the mortal, she finally exposed a smile.
Odin’s expression somewhat eased, and he asked in a heavy tone, Mortal, is what you said true?”
The system had no patience for him, however. [Old bastard, clearly you are putting on an act, so why are you insisting that other people clap and applaud you? I am already losing it. If you want to give him a little test, won’t this promise suffice?]
Odin lost some face because of the system’s words. Even if it was getting tired, it shouldn’t have revealed the truth, right?
