Chapter 1016: Chapter 495: Black Dragon Lady and Luo Xi Join Forces to Breach the City, the Lord of The Country and His Daughter-in-Law Steal the Show (4k)

Bahamut noticed Luo Xi deep in thought and asked, "Have you thought of something?"

Luo Xi shook his head.

He only knew that the Lord of Truth’s side had finally shown a sliver of their tail.

That Evil God must have done something, it was just that they didn’t know about it yet.

"Sigh..."

Bahamut glanced at the bloodstains that filled the city and let out a light sigh.

Judging by the density of runes pointing to the sacrifice, it was estimated that only a follower of the Archbishop level could set up a ritual of such scale.

Humans really were fragile creatures, those who had not embarked on the Path Beyond the Mortal could die from the smallest of accidents, not to mention such a disastrous large-scale cultist sacrifice ritual.

But that was just a sigh.

She had seen too many natural and man-made disasters, so the death of these millions of people only made her feel a bit regretful, deepening her indignation against the Evil God.

"You cultists are seeking death!"

Suddenly, an extremely angry male voice echoed from the heavens, and Bahamut suddenly looked up, her black hair flying gracefully, her golden vertical pupils lighting up with a dazzling glow.

"Let’s go!"

Luo Xi only felt his body being snatched away in an instant, the wind whistling past his ears, followed by a loud boom from afar.

From high above, Luo Xi looked down while being grasped by the Black Dragon.

The falling golden column of light was gradually disappearing.

The city they had just passed by was gone without a trace, leaving behind only a bottomless pit where the Divine Tree had been.

"Divine Strike."

The Black Dragon’s voice was indifferent, "If it had hit us directly, even I would have lost a layer of skin, but it fell too slowly. I noticed the brewing Yuan Su fluctuations before it locked onto us and escaped to a place it couldn’t reach."

Luo Xi: "..."

That was just a few seconds ago, right?

The Emerald Tree had also once launched a similar strike, and probably only a being at Bahamut’s level could easily talk about dodging such a powerful divine punishment.

"It’s only right to return a favor."

The Black Dragon’s voice was icy cold, "Luo Xi, why don’t we just settle the position of the Lord of the Golden City now? With me behind you, all conspiracies are futile."

"Can you always stand behind me?"

"I have another twenty minutes, any longer and this continent will reject me. The rules that shaped these lands despise the authority I control."

Luo Xi: "..."

Damn, did she want him to be a Lord of a country for just twenty minutes?

Even if he could forcefully become the Lord, likely, as soon as Bahamut left, those below would start thinking about how to overthrow him.

Of course, if he could control the power of the Eternal World Tree, that would be a different story.

Ai Xue’s sweeping reforms in the Dark Night Country proved that an Agent of the World Tree, unrestrained, was an invincible being within their own nation. Even if the nobles below caused trouble and rebelled, they would just be clowns jumping on a beam.

For instance, during Kureya’s incident, if it weren’t for the centuries-old changing Elf Law and Origin oath imposing a bunch of restrictive shackles on the role of the Elf Emperor, she could have easily dealt with the Dukes’ rebellion by herself.

"He mistook us for cultists, right?" Luo Xi said.

"That seems to be the case. The current Lord of the Golden Kingdom is also a good-for-nothing. Everyone is dead, and then a Divine Strike is thrown down; what’s the use? It would have been better to just throw it down earlier, killing all those cultists along with it."

"I feel there must be something wrong here, the arrangement of the sacrifice rituals must have taken a lot of time and precious materials. Wouldn’t the original controllers of that city have noticed?"

"So, you’re suggesting if the city’s controller is still alive, they might be in cahoots with the Church of Truth?"

"It’s just a speculation."

"Whether it’s a speculation or not doesn’t matter. We can simply go directly to the Golden City and ask."

"There’s someone else we need."

"Right, there’s also your little girlfriend’s mom, almost forgot about that."

"goddamn ’little girlfriend’s mom’..."

The Golden City.

The Eternal World Tree - Gold, its lower crown during the daytime appeared dazzlingly bright, like countless pieces of gold hanging high in the sky. Perhaps this was the origin of both Its and the city’s name.

As a World Tree with the authority to control metal creation, the Golden Kingdom didn’t lack metal forging materials, and the entire city below was constructed of rare metals, seamlessly unified.

The current Lord of the Country, Lucas, was now standing furiously on a branch about eight thousand meters high in the World Tree. By his side, a girl with violet hair was shaking as she stood and said:

"Father Lord, did an Evil God sacrifice my entire city? Are the millions of people in my city... dead?"

Lucas reined in the sharpness in his eyes and said with a heavy voice, "Rosalia, as a City Owner, you have been too incompetent. Although I can understand you wanting to come back to see Luce, you shouldn’t have let those cultists carry out such a large sacrifice ritual in your city, capable of devouring all life, without you noticing anything, right?"

"I really didn’t know anything..."

Rosalia was just shaking her head in panic.

Lucas glanced at her and said, "Forget it, it must be that those cultists have been plotting there for years. But there won’t be a next time, and you will have to accept punishment this time."
