Lu Jin and Alex exchanged confused glances before returning their focus to Sol.

"I believe Derek also wants to become the new supreme deity, so the fight against the old gods is crucial." Sol said as he picked up the teapot and refilled his cup.

"What makes you think that way?" Lu Jin asked with a shocked expression.
