“To be honest,” Fan Xian nodded in deep agreement, “that scumbag father of Ye Dou must die! If he doesn’t die, it won’t appease public anger.”
Yato opened his mouth, but the words stuck in his throat. He lowered his eyes, his expression complex.
After watching the story of Xingchen, he also felt extremely negative feelings towards the father he remembered...
Needless to say, he also understood that although he was born from that father's wish, his father simply used him as a weapon and had no feelings for him whatsoever...
"I'm a little curious, what are Yato's plans for the future?" Huang Rong stared at Yato with interest. "How about doing what I did, lying low in the council in the early stages, learning from the many strong people in the council, and constantly increasing your strength... and then raising the flag of rebellion in the later stages, attacking Takamagahara, killing Ame, and becoming the new ruler of Takamagahara?"
Huang Rong's voice carried a hint of seduction, "You've always wanted a shrine, haven't you? If you become the lord of Takamagahara, you can have your shrine appear in every corner of Japan."
"Hiss!" Yato gasped, clearly tempted.
However, Yato was still clear-headed at the moment. After a brief silence, he quickly shook his head, "No, no, no... no matter how you look at it, there is no possibility for me to achieve this."
“Boring,” Luo Cuilian suddenly sneered, speaking with a hint of disinterest, “As a calamity god born from slaughter, is this all you’ve got?”
"Or are you someone who only bullies the weak and doesn't dare to challenge truly powerful beings?"
Luo Cuilian said coldly, "If that's really the case, then you've disappointed me greatly! You are not worthy of bearing the name of a god."
Yato froze, staring intently at Luo Cuilian with a serious expression. "Miss, what do you mean by bullying the weak? My reputation may be worthless, but you can't slander me like this, can you?"
"And...whether I am qualified to bear the name of God is not something you have the right to define."
"What's wrong? Do you want to fight me?" Luo Cuilian raised her eyebrows, her voice tinged with amusement. "You're too weak! Without a divine weapon, you don't even have the right to provoke my fighting spirit."
"No, even if you have a divine artifact, I could kill you right now with just a flick of my finger."
Luo Cuilian's words weren't simply mockery; when she first learned that Yato was a god, she harbored some expectations...
But after watching the story of Starry Night, all my expectations were dashed, like punching cotton, which made me very unhappy.
Huang Rong coughed a few times before speaking, "Mr. Yato, Miss Luo Cuilian's world is a world of god-slayers! In her world, there exist gods who break free from mythology and defy humanity, and she herself is a god-slayer who kills gods and seizes their power."
"That's why... she has a very bad feeling towards the gods. Of course, Miss Luo Cuilian is also very powerful... You can learn more about her specifics by watching her storyline."
Upon hearing this, Yato froze.
“I actually think the plot of the Yato world is quite good,” Tony Stark said, noticing the awkward atmosphere, and immediately changed the subject. “Every character in the Yato world is very unique! The good guys can make me cry, and the villains can make me hate them to the core.”
"The female lead, Hiyori, is absolutely a goddess. And although I found Yukine a bit annoying at the beginning, I could also see his cuteness later on... Hiyori, including Vena, Kazuma, Kofuku, and Daikuro, are all great guys."
“Yes,” Conan nodded in agreement. “And the story itself, it made me happy when it was heartwarming, and it made my stomach hurt when it was heartbreaking… Overall, it’s still very gripping. The only downside is that the overall power level is too low.”
"Isn't this just another old problem?" Rukia Kuchiki's expression was subtle.
Sakata Gintoki previously felt that the power system in the Yato world was too weak. Even Luo Cuilian's provocation stemmed from her dissatisfaction with the weakness of the gods in that other world.
After scanning the entire room, Sawada Tsunayoshi spoke softly, "Although Yato is a god of misfortune, he longs to become a god of fortune and hopes to bring happiness to people... That's why he helps others at a very low price. Although he sometimes does bad things because he's misled, he tries his best to make up for it."
As he spoke, a firm expression appeared on his face. "I really like Mr. Yato... I also think he's a very good guy."
"Besides, power level doesn't really matter, does it? In Miss Huang Rong's world, in Mr. Zhang Sanfeng's world, and even in my world, the power level isn't high, is it? This isn't a reason to target new members."

"While Mr. Sawada's words make sense, most of the council members don't have any ill intentions towards Yato; they're just saying it for the sake of it." Rick tried to smooth things over with a wry smile.
“However, it was indeed inappropriate to discuss this when Yato had just joined the council,” Bruce Wayne added abruptly.
After a brief silence, Yato crossed his arms behind his head, his expression casual and relaxed. "The discussion was truthful, and I have no objections... As for sensing other people's negative emotions..."
“If I got angry every time I felt that way, I wouldn’t have done that kind of thing in my world.”
Huang Rong's lips twitched slightly, then she nodded in deep agreement. In his own world, Yato was willing to do dirty, strenuous work like fixing a toilet for five yen… Did he really not understand that it wasn't worth it?
He knew perfectly well.
But he did it anyway, simply because he was willing to extend kindness to others.
After thinking for a moment, Huang Rong said seriously, "So, are you really not going to reconsider my previous suggestion?"
After coughing a few times, Yato spoke somewhat awkwardly, "I am indeed somewhat tempted. However, I am not yet clear about the power that the council can bring me... Moreover, I do not wish to reshape the world I live in through pure violence for the time being."
After a brief pause, Yato said softly, "Let's get stronger first. We'll deal with whatever the future holds later."
"Interesting." Emperor Qing gazed at Yato with great interest, his fingers lightly tapping the armrest, clearly deep in thought.
"So, Yato, are you interested in learning Haki?" Whitebeard's eyes gleamed. "I'm willing to teach you... and of course, I'll use this opportunity to conduct an experiment."
"After all, you are a being completely different from humans. Even ordinary humans cannot see your form! I am very curious whether beings like you can condense Armament Haki and Observation Haki."
Conan glanced at the white-bearded man speechlessly. "Grandpa... what you said makes a lot of sense, but I feel like this isn't your real reason, is it?"
"You're not thinking that Yato also had a human father in the original timeline, so you're wondering if you could adopt Yato as your son?"
Yato: "Huh?!"
Yato thought for a moment, then suddenly realized something was wrong and his expression became wary.
"Seeing through it but not saying it?" Whitebeard stroked his newly grown golden hair, looking at Yato seriously. "However, I won't force you to acknowledge me as your father. Haki is a power you might as well cultivate. What do you think?"
"...Let me think about it." Yato's lips twitched. He suddenly realized that there's no such thing as a free lunch. Immediately, he began to examine the plot star above Whitebeard's head, pondering whether he should first look at this plot star to understand who this giant really was.
