Then came the central region. It provided many forms of entertainment. From casinos to shopping districts, from luxurious hotels to vacation spots. The arrival of the central region had completely changed the entire divine realm. No one needed to go so far to see someone. The majority had all either rented a suit or bought a large villa somewhere in the central region. You would think a group of gods that had transcended worldly things would not accept it, but that was not case at all. That was also the same reason I was seeing the volcanic titan god changed into a three-meter size red colored buff man striding happily with a perverted smile into a brothel while his wife was who knew where. The central zone had everything one would need.
Seeing his happy smile, I was tempted to tell his wife where he was. 'Maybe I should let him off just this once. "I'm in a good mood. Maybe some other time." I continued to walk until I heard his loud perverted laugh. "On second thought." I paused my steps. There was something about someone else's happiness that just rubbed me the wrong way. *Cough* I meant that made me want to join them so we could both be happy. That's right.
"Old volcanic god. It's been a while." I yelled out loud to get his attention. I was already running towards him. I swear I saw him shudder. Might have been my imagination. Why would he? I was a sweet and lovable young handsome god. I was loved and adored by all. The volcanic god paused his steps and turned to me slowly. Again, I could have sworn I saw dread in his eyes. 'Impossible. Must be something wrong with my cultivation. I should probably check it after I leave.'
"O…oh? If it isn't Riggs. How are you dear boy?" The volcanic god stuttered. For some reason he kept looking left and right. It made me wonder who he was searching for and why he was so unnerved.
"Old volcanic god, I think I saw your wife not too far from here. Do you need me to get her for you? I don't think she would be at a place like this." I looked innocently at the brothel where, again, for some reason, the ladies the old volcanic god was entering with had all vanished. In fact, the entrance to the brothel looked emptier than I originally saw. Again, probably my cultivation.
"NO!" He unconsciously yelled. He quickly composed himself and cleared his throat. "That won't be necessary, Riggs my boy. I am…um…yeah, waiting for her at the entrance to this place. We already have an arrangement." The old red bastard avoided my gaze constantly as he spun his obvious lie.
"That aside, Riggs. How come you are not at the Young Meet? Could it be, that the great Riggs was actually not invited?" The volcanic god asked suspiciously. The Young Meet was a gathering of all the younger generation gods to interact and familiarize with each other. They don't do any discussion of dao like the mortals do. It was more like showing off their personal strengths and if they lost in that, they would show off their papa and mama's wealth.
There was, however, a huge problem. He was not invited. Every century they would deliberately change the location of the event just so I could not track them down. And for the love of father, I had no idea why. Even if I was behind in terms of level of godhood, my personal strength and divinities more than made up for my lack in that department. If it was about papa and mama's wealth, then mine were the richest. After all, they owned more than sixty per cent shares of the central region, with mother hunting down the other thirty something per cent. Did I say hunting? I meant trying to buy the remaining shares. I had to admit, mother truly was a terrifying businesswoman.
Back to the topic. After proving myself to be much more superior the first few…thirty or forty times, the young aristocratic group of gods suddenly began to change their venue. More like tried to keep it a secret. Okay, they did not 'try'. They had been successful in hiding the rest of the times. I had not been to a single event since the incident with the hair. 'Hahaha. Ah, good times.'
"Ah, the young meet. Of course. I had things to take care of. I did not know if I'd be able to make it. Now that I'm out, I should probably head over there now." I saw the red bastard smirking at me. Those bastards at the young meet were the reason the ancient red bastard was smirking at me.
"Of course, how could the great Riggs not know this century's Young Meet is being held and Reed's mansion." He winked at me. He was such a good guy. I may have misjudged him. He smiled. I smiled back. He laughed. I laughed harder. This went on until the two of us just stood there laughing boisterously in the crowd completely ignoring all the weird stares we were getting.
The laughter came to an abrupt stop as we both stared at each other for a single second before we turned our backs to each other, walking away to our destinations. We had both come to a tacit agreement. "Because we are MEN!" My destination was the Reed mansion. "But first, a detour."
"Mrs. Volcanic god." I screamed out happily when my eyes fell upon who I wanted to see. That afternoon others swore they saw a raging giant voluptuously shaped lava moving towards the central brothel region. "Who would have thought the divine realm would be such a scary place." I hummed a happy tune to myself and made my way to Reed mansion. I missed all my friends there and couldn't wait to see them again.
