"Return to the pantheon immediately and raise alert to the highest level."
Odin immediately turned around and took Thor back to the Norse pantheon.
Meanwhile, the other gods also realized something and stopped caring about the Egyptian pantheon, which had been reduced to ruins, and quickly returned to their respective pantheons.
"What's wrong?!"
"Haven't you noticed yet, those wisps of sword light, those cyan sword lights, remaining on the ruins of the Egyptian pantheon—"
One of the main gods explained solemnly.
"It's... the Azure Emperor!!"
After this reminder, the remaining people who stayed behind understood.
The culprit who destroyed the Egyptian pantheon made no attempt to hide their identity; the lingering blue sword light was so conspicuously visible amidst the ruins of the entire Egyptian pantheon.
Qing Emperor! ! !
They had both reason and motive to take action against the Egyptian pantheon.
Everyone knew that the Azure Emperor was extremely powerful, yet he single-handedly destroyed the entire mainstream pantheon, once again redefining the understanding of his strength.
At the same time, it became even clearer that the relationship between the God of the Bible and the Green Emperor was absolutely extraordinary. Otherwise, the Green Emperor would not have completely destroyed the entire Egyptian pantheon for the sake of the God of the Bible's seemingly boastful words.
The reason why the rulers of those mainstream pantheons rushed back to their respective pantheons to deploy defenses was clearly because they feared the attack of the Azure Emperor and were afraid of suffering the same fate as the Egyptian pantheon.
"One man who subdues all the gods, the first person to reign eternally throughout history!"
This scene moved many gods to tears.
Humanity, such a weak race, has truly produced a remarkable figure!
Just as the gods and powerful beings were filled with fear and dread over the actions of the Azure Emperor.
In the small villa—
Kanzaki Teru, the instigator, received a phone call that gave him a headache. A voice, authoritative yet tinged with teasing and indulgence, rang out from the other end of the line.
"You brat, you're usually so low-key and unassuming, but this time you've really caused quite a stir. If I hadn't used the power of the Shinomiya family, your place would be surrounded by the media right now."
"Uncle Shinomiya, I'm sorry to trouble you again."
Kanzaki Teru said apologetically.
He knew in his heart that since the "Immortal Beauty Ranking" had exposed his romantic history, this "Uncle Shinomiya" who took good care of him and treated him even better than his own son, the head of the Shinomiya family, Shinomiya Yan'an, must have been under considerable pressure for him.
Come to think of it—
The sudden exposure of so many romantic escapades by the son-in-law of the Shinomiya family, along with his current girlfriend, is undoubtedly a disgrace to the Shinomiya family, and their rivals will surely use this as an opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
Although such things are very common in these conglomerate families, sometimes what everyone knows in their hearts is one thing, but what is exposed is another.
"You brat, I delayed the meeting early this morning, not to hear your apology. If you really want to apologize, then move into the Shinomiya family mansion and live with Kaguya."
"Uncle Shinomiya, you know..."
Kanzaki Teru was about to refuse, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Shinomiya Gan'an.
“You must listen to your uncle this time. It’s very dangerous for you to live alone outside right now.”
"That's settled then. I'll have someone move your luggage to Kaguya's residence this afternoon!"
After saying this, he didn't give Kanzaki Teru a chance to object and made the decision without consulting him first.
"This, sigh..."
Kanzaki Teru shook his head helplessly as he listened to the dial tone constantly coming from his phone.
There's no escaping it now—
"Both Xiaosheng and Mio have gone to the dimensional rift for seclusion, so it doesn't matter where they stay."
With this thought in mind, Kanzaki Teru went out to prepare for school.
That's right—
Strictly speaking, he is still a high school student, a third-year student at the private Toyonosaki School.

………………
I'm so sorry, I'll have to ask you for another day. I was hit by a car yesterday, and my arm is still throbbing. I'll just post one picture for now. Sorry.
Updates will definitely resume tomorrow.
Chapter Twenty-Two: A Chance Encounter
The private Toyonosaki School is located in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo.
Chiyoda Ward is a full forty-minute subway ride from Edogawa Ward, where Kanzaki Hikaru currently lives, so Kanzaki Hikaru always leaves home well in advance.
Of course--
With Kanzaki Teru's abilities, traveling from Edogawa Ward to Chiyoda Ward, or even from Japan to the other side of the Atlantic, would be a matter of moments. However, much like going to school, he thoroughly enjoys this ordinary life of doing what one is supposed to do at each age.
Like a real ordinary person, they are fully immersed in all aspects of life, from clothing and food to housing and transportation, enjoying the pleasures that only ordinary people can experience.
At this moment, he was no longer the Azure Emperor who commanded the awe of the gods; he was just an ordinary third-year student at Toyonosaki Private School, and the senior of a new female student.
……
"Luckily, I dressed up beforehand, otherwise I would definitely have been stared at like a monkey."
In the crowded subway car, Kanzaki Teru, wearing a mask to cover his face, listened to the cacophony of conversations around him.
The topic of these conversations was naturally the currently trending "Beauty Ranking".
Now, nothing can rival this in terms of popularity, whether online or in real life. If a celebrity were to release an album or a movie now, they would likely not only lack viewers but also be subjected to a barrage of criticism and comparisons.
have to say--
With the advent of the "Fairy Beauty Ranking," everyone's aesthetic standards have been raised to a new level. Previously popular celebrities and divas have now been reduced to ordinary, unworthy of even being supporting roles, let alone goddesses.
Only those on the "Fairy Beauty Ranking" are true symbols of goddesses, which is why countless girls dream of making it onto the "Fairy Beauty Ranking," even if they are last place, they are still satisfied and enjoy the feeling of being admired by thousands.
However, what troubles Kanzaki Teru now is...
These people can talk about the "Immortal Beauty Ranking" all they want, but why spend half of every thirty or fifty sentences discussing him? Especially with all that jealousy and slander, it made him shake his head in despair.
Heaven and earth bear witness—
Even though he was the one who always broke up with her, now everyone sees him as a scumbag who started relationships and then abandoned her.
"Sure enough, men have always been the weaker party in front of women, especially beautiful women."
Moreover, the reasons for his breakups with Kasumigaoka Utaha, Kocho Kanae, Isayama Yomi, and others cannot be explained in just a few words.
Just as Kanzaki Teru's thoughts were wandering, suddenly, a delicate body, as warm as jade, bumped directly into his arms, and his first instinctive reaction was:
Students these days are so well-developed—
"sorry!"
Immediately, a very faint, shy apology voice, like that of a mosquito, came from beside him. This was Kanzaki Teru. If it were someone with poor hearing, they probably wouldn't be able to hear what the little girl in their arms was saying more than 80% of the time.
At this moment, Kanzaki Teru finally took notice of the little girl who had bumped into him.
Wearing the same school uniform as him, she appeared to be a student at the private Toyonosaki School. However, judging from her school badge, she was already a first-year junior. She had long hair and black eyes, and her eyes were filled with shyness. Her delicate features were covered by a mask, but from her figure, which was in no way inferior to Kasumigaoka Utaha's, one could tell that she was definitely a beautiful junior.
"It turns out it's her!"
Kanzaki Teru couldn't resist a little curiosity and activated a sliver of his perception to peek at the junior schoolgirl's figure behind her mask. She was as delicate and cute as he had imagined.
Moreover, he knew this junior high school girl, but of course, it was only on his end.
It was Katsura Kotonoha, ranked eighty-fifth on the [Fairy Beauty Ranking].
She ranks much higher than Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri, belonging to the same tier as Kocho Kanae, Shirayuki-hime, and Shinomiya Kaguya.
I never expected to run into her here; it's quite an unexpected coincidence.
"Hey kid, get out of my way and don't ruin my fun."
Three masked thugs with ill intentions surrounded Kanzaki Hikaru, threatening him repeatedly.
Katsura Kotonoha didn't fall into his arms because of the subway's swaying; rather, she was being harassed by these malicious thugs and had to retreat several times before bumping into him.
In neon lights, especially on the congested subway—
These petty thugs who prey on women frequently appear. Although they dare not do anything openly, they inevitably offer some benefits and harassment, which is extremely disgusting.
"You clearly have the strength to defeat them, why don't you make a move?"
Kanzaki Teru ignored the thugs' shouts in his ear, and instead whispered something in Katsura Kotonoha's ear.
Perhaps it was the first time in her life that she had been so intimately touched by a member of the opposite sex, especially with that strong masculine scent, that made Katsura Kotonoha's face flush red and her mind in a complete mess.
"Your weakness will only embolden them."
Kanzaki Teru gently took Katsura Kotonoha's delicate hand in his. As Katsura Kotonoha regained her senses, her eyes filled with shyness and confusion, he pointed at the thugs who had previously been approaching him with ill intentions.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!”
Katsura Kotonoha could clearly feel several arrow-like attacks, the color of which was blue, blooming from her fingertips.
Immediately—
"Ah ah ah ah..."
Accompanied by several screams like pigs being slaughtered, the attacks pierced through the lower bodies of the thugs, causing large amounts of blood to flow out. They collapsed to their knees, howling in pain, which frightened the other passengers nearby, who quickly retreated.
"This……"
Katsura Kotonoha couldn't bear to watch this scene, but before she could say anything, the subway arrived at the station, and Kanzaki Teru pulled her off the subway.
"If you make a mistake, you should have the courage to take responsibility for it. If you encounter those people again, just give them a lifelong lesson and you can prevent others from falling victim to their evil deeds."
After exiting the subway station, Kanzaki Teru let go of Katsura Kotonoha's hand, and the two walked one after the other on the street to Toyonosaki Private School.
"Thank you, Kanzaki-senpai."
Katsura Kotonoha was silent for a few seconds before speaking softly, "If it happens next time, I will."
"You know me?!"
Kanzaki Teru was taken aback that Katsura Kotonoha recognized him at a glance.
