My Substitute CEO Bride

"It didn't just affect you alone." Dusky seemed to hear Nash's inner thoughts. "Two years have passed in the real world."

"Two years?! What about my family?" Nash immediately turned to head toward the cave entrance. However, Dusky blocked his path.

"What are you doing?" Nash asked, filled with hostility.

Dusky explained, "I came to inform you about the major events that occurred over the past two years, as well as the current situation outside. Wandering around like a lost soul won't do you any good."

Reluctantly, Nash decided to trust Dusky for the time being. Dusky then recounted the various significant events that had taken place in the past two years.

First and foremost was the awakening of the gods. The day before Nash entered the cave, this event had already begun. In other words, the outside world had now turned into a battlefield for the gods.

Next came the downfall of Gorgeous Country. Indeed, Gorgeous Country had completely collapsed. The warriors divided the territory of Gorgeous Country into five independent nations and ruled over the few remaining humans. Furthermore, Gorgeous Country was also the starting point for the awakening of the gods of the West.

The situation in Sand Country was not optimistic either. Although they had trained many warriors, their strength ultimately remained too weak. Currently, only Drakonia could contend with Gorgeous Country and the gods of the West.

Dusky tossed a map onto the ground. "The countries marked with crosses have been destroyed by the gods of the West as of yesterday."

Nash looked at the map. Most of the former Western countries had essentially fallen. Yerusia still existed, but it was merely struggling to survive. Turning to the east, the situation was even more dire, with Drakonia being the only remaining country.

Nash understood that the current circumstances were quite grim. Dusky continued, "I came here to find you this time. Don't worry, your family is safe. By the way, your women gave birth to a son and a daughter. The boy is named Oran, and the girl is named Dawn. They're currently being kept safe in a

fortress in the Northern Territory.

"If you want to see them, I can give you the address. However, I should tell you something in advance."

"What?" Nash asked.

"Your father, Philix..." Dusky hesitated for a moment before continuing to share what he had seen and heard with Nash.

"The North Warden was severely

injured in a battle with the gods of the West the day before and is currently in a coma. Moreover, due to the influence of a certain Western

god, Philix is essentially on the brink of death."

Hearing these words, Nash could no longer remain calm. He bolted

toward the cave exit. This time,

Dusky did not stop him. Instead, he

silently injected those memories and the addresses of the mentioned places into Nash's mind.

"Next, let me see the fate of this world," Dusky said slowly as he walked toward

the golden elixir. He then swallowed the elixir.

"The endgame has begun." Dusky's body underwent a transformation, and waves of divine power surged within him.

"So, this is what it feels like to become the divine emperor? How interesting."noveldrama

He then split the mountain above him in two, and the massive mountain transformed into two streams of divine power.
