Chapter 867: News About Chaos's Situation



If Goddess Thyia's inheritance was called an inheritance, it should be something Goddess Thyia intended for her heir or successor to inherit.

Even if she wished for the most qualified heir or successor to obtain her inheritance, she wouldn't make her inheritance trials impossible to pass.

That said, Vaan noticed several points of interest and mystery related to Goddess Thyia.

"Senior, since Goddess Thyia is the Goddess of Life, why would she have something like the Death Eaters guarding her inheritance? Moreover, since Goddess Thyia left her inheritance here, does that mean Goddess Thyia knew her days were numbered and is no longer among the living...?"

Vaan wondered somewhat hesitantly due to the insensitiveness of his question.Nôv(el)B\jnn

However, Senior Willowthorn didn't mind. He had a lot of respect for Goddess Thyia, who gave life to the Mother Tree. But apart from that, he wasn't particularly close enough to be offended over trivial details.

"You've raised a valid point, Junior. Even this Old Man cannot understand why dark beings like the Death Eaters would emerge from Goddess Thyia's land of inheritance," Senior Willowthorn admitted before continuing, "As for Goddess Thyia's life status, I'm afraid I'm not knowledgeable enough to make a statement."

"However, I was around when Goddess Thyia stayed in the Garden of Thyia to leave behind her inheritance. Now that I think about it, I do recall a particular conversation between Goddess Thyia and the Mother Tree. Ah, yes, the memories are returning to me."

"Goddess Thyia mentioned she was going to partake in some grand war over Chaos to save as many lives as she could," Senior Willowthorn mentioned.

"Some grand war over Chaos? Do you happen to know more about this and what it is about, Senior?" Vaan inquired with interest.

"I do know a little bit," Senior Willowthorn nodded before saying, "However, I have lived within the Garden of Thyia all my life, so what I know is what I overheard from the Mother Tree and Goddess Thyia's conversation."

"I heard Chaos has been split in two by the Lord of Chaos and an immensely powerful foreign invader from beyond the border of existence. Supposedly, these two supreme beings would destroy all of Chaos if they fought all out."

"However, that is also something neither side wanted. Thus, they somehow reached an agreement and turned Chaos into one big game of chess. Neither side would personally intervene in the war if the other didn't."

Shortly after shaking his head, Vaan asked, "Do you know what kind of beings serve that powerful foreign invader, Senior? Are they all foreign invaders like it? Or are there also lifeforms from Chaos under it as well?"

"Your guess is as good as mine, Junior. This Old Man is not privy to such information. I apologize for not being able to provide you with a satisfactory answer," Senior Willowthorn said regretfully.

"You don't need to apologize for that, Senior," Vaan shook his head and said, "I was expecting too much despite knowing you have been living in this enclosed realm all your

life."

"I appreciate your understanding," Senior Willowthorn replied gratefully with a smile. However, his smile abruptly disappeared when something above suddenly attracted his attention.

Vaan also followed his gaze and glanced up at the Mother Tree's crown. The Death Eaters lurking within its darkness appeared restless, but that was the extent of his sense.

He could neither see the Death Eaters nor tell what they were doing.

"What do you see, Senior?" Vaan asked.

Senior Willowthorn frowned before muttering with doubt, "Something seemed to have agitated the Death Eaters. I have never sensed such hostility and killing intent from them

before in all my years here..."

Vaan was immediately astonished.

Since it was something that had never happened before, it had to be related to his arrival.

Moments later, the sea of darkness from the upper garden descended, hiding a swarm of Death Eaters within it. Moreover, the sea of darkness dropped on a very specific location-the hole Vaan dug to enter the Garden of Thyia.

In that instant, Senior Willowthorn and Vaan were both stunned.

'Oh no!'
