    As for saying that the corpse was Death God Thanatos, that’s even more impossible. Zeus, even if he were capriciously inclined, would never do such an absurd thing.


    As for the idea that Sisyphus forced Death God Thanatos to tie up the other party, could that be possible? With Sisyphus’s feeble build, a heavy punch would be enough to confuse him, let alone forcing the Death God to play such games.


    But he also didn’t think Sisyphus would set him up — now he was quite formidable, and he definitely made sure Sisyphus learned what a heavy punch really was.


    Just as he relayed the news, Sisyphus hurried over.


    This clearly looked like a situation where someone knew a silencing was in order, so why rush into it?


    If this weren’t serious, he could, as well, recite his name backward.


    Then, Zeus arranged for Death God Thanatos to take him away to the Place of Suffering for a good one hundred and eighty years.


    Once the Death God ceased ushering the deceased, chaos would reign in the mortal world.


    Speaking of thunder, one simply can’t forget the king of all gods, for he alone wielded the thunderbolt.


    Had it not been for the Death God’s disappearance, he wouldn’t have had the chance to chat with the other Netherworld Gods.


    Now it seemed, Zeus was truly determined to make a move.


    Sisyphus explained at length, about how he reported Zeus’s abduction of River God Asopus’s daughter to Asopus, and how Zeus came to know of it.


    Hearing this, Sisyphus’s face changed, “River God Asopus is dead? How dare Zeus lay his hands, no wonder Asopus’s river stopped flowing recently!”


    Thanatos, seeing Qin Muye, was quite excited and wriggled his body, signaling to hurry and untie him.


    He always felt something was off.


    He was brought back by Sleep God Hypnos, under normal circumstances, it should have been Thanatos, but since the Death God was missing, only the Sleep God could help.


    Why cause trouble and get involved when it’s none of his concern?


    He saw Death God Thanatos chained on the ground, those chains being Thanatos’s own that were normally used to bind the departed, now bound around himself.


    So this made him realize one thing, never marry into the Titan Divine Race.


    Thus... Qin Muye decided to ignore the charred corpse.@@@@


    Although the analogy was a bit strange, the other’s expression was indeed so.


    Death God glanced at Sisyphus and nodded slowly, then dissipated.


    The Death God soon recovered, he wasn’t the handsome youth as he was in the Netherworld, but a robe-covered skeleton figure.


    The piece of rock not far away was familiar to him; it was there that Zeus, transformed into a mighty eagle, had his way with the daughter of River God Asopus under broad daylight, which Qin Muye and Sisyphus had once watched.


    “How come there’s a charred corpse here, seems a bit familiar?”


    “This wave will at least make Zeus lose a blood fortune.”


    “This seems to be near the Corinth Kingdom, might as well go see what Aladdin is up to.” Qin Muye discerned the direction and quickly figured out where they were.


    “Find Moluo Po, have her find a way to contact Sea Goddess Thetis and Ocean God Oceanus, tell them Zeus took Afeiya and killed Asopus; getting the Gaia Mother Goddess involved would be best, the bigger the trouble, the safer you’ll be.”


    “What’s going on?” Qin Muye asked the secretive Sisyphus.


    “Hypnos told me you had disappeared; I thought you had been captured by Zeus, turns out you had tied yourself up. How did you manage that?” Qin Muye exclaimed, shocked.


    “Sisyphus, this is an opportunity, Zeus is in the wrong and hasn’t dragged you into the Netherworld yet, so there’s still a chance to turn things around.”


    “Damn!!!”


    “After notifying them, come to the Netherworld with me, don’t be unhappy. This time you’ve offended Death God Thanatos, and if Zeus really gets furiously embarrassed, you might die even more miserably, so pass the ruling to Aladdin and then come take refuge with me in the Netherworld.”


    “Lord Thanatos, let me take Sisyphus to the Netherworld, the Mortal World has been in chaos these days you’ve been missing, and you need to handle it quickly, there’s no delay,” Qin Muye thought for a moment and said.


    “So, this Titan corpse, is it River God Asopus?” Qin Muye connected the dots, remembering the Titan body struck by lightning.


    “Who did this, acting so boldly?”


    “The air in the Mortal World is comforting; the Netherworld really isn’t a place for people, life should be compared.”


    “You’re playing around this much, does Queen Moluo Po know?” Before this, Qin Muye thought he had seen big events, but now he realized he hadn’t really seen anything.


    “That’s good, come here, I have something to show you,” Sisyphus said upon hearing Qin Muye’s words.


    “And Afeiya? Do you know where she is?” Qin Muye asked in return, referring to River God Asopus’s daughter.


    “Cough, I don’t know about your relationship with Death God Thanatos,” Sisyphus asked.


    “It’s okay, what’s up? He’s always busy working, we don’t chat much,” Qin Muye answered truthfully, and that was indeed the case.


    “Dionysus, it’s not what you think, it’s like this...”


    “It doesn’t look like it was burned, rather more like it was struck by lightning.”


    “I’m not sure, Asopus went after it alone, I didn’t follow; I was dealing with that never-drying fountain at the time,” Sisyphus said.


    “It wasn’t the Death God himself who did the tying, it was me,” Sisyphus said somewhat awkwardly.


    “???” Qin Muye was bewildered: “What strange thing are you planning to share with me?”


    ‘It couldn’t be that Zeus was seen forcing himself on the Death God and got silenced for it, could it? Surely it’s not that coincidental.’
