Chapter 301: The Arrogant Divine Might Suppression, Sun and Moon Rotation!
Xie Antong: ......
Her eyes widened in shock. She couldn't comprehend how "Sin" had accomplished this—what kind of power was this?
Or rather, in that brief moment, she had no other thoughts except one clear realization:
—He actually came!
When she saw the castle begin to tremble, when she witnessed the princess undergo such drastic changes, the situation had spiraled completely out of control.
Her mind went blank instinctively, and then that golden figure entered.
Now, only one sentence the princess had told her earlier echoed in her mind:
—If I put a knife to your neck right now, he would definitely come.
Not just her—even the princess was stunned. Watching Lu Ce single-handedly grip that weapon, suppressing the violent tremors instantly, she was utterly shocked.
The guards didn't overthink things. They entered with one simple purpose—who should they take away?Glancing around, they wordlessly moved toward Xie Antong with perfect synchronization, intending to seize her.
"Out!"
The princess and Lu Ce spoke simultaneously.
Guards: ......
Their bodies stiffened before they turned and left without the slightest hesitation.
......
Xie Antong reached up to remove the princess's hand from her shoulder. All hesitation vanished from her eyes as she stared directly at "Sin's" face and spoke:
"I believe there must be divine intervention in this game."
"Or perhaps... that wedding ceremony was prepared for a god."
BOOM!
A thunderous explosion shook the entire palace. From outside, boulders began tumbling down the mountainside.
The princess trembled uncontrollably, staring at Xie Antong in disbelief.
"You..."
"Stop talking. Can't you see there's a problem here?"
Xie Antong didn't respond, merely grasping the princess's hand reassuringly with one hand while keeping her eyes locked on "Sin" across from them.
He had said to speak her mind freely.
"The princess's memories were likely altered. Her past love and happiness were real, but this wedding—the person she's marrying isn't her beloved."
"Rather, she's being wed to... a divine child? Maybe. That's just my speculation."
BOOM!!!
The entire ground quaked violently. The crystal chandelier above them swung wildly.
"Hah!"
For the first time, Lu Ce's golden mask contorted into a ferocious expression. His grip on the weapon shifted to both hands!
"A dead object dares oppose me?!"
Golden light erupted, transforming him into a radiant source of light—a blinding golden sun impossible to look at directly!
His knuckles stood out sharply, veins bulging as he channeled power sufficient to crush boulders into powder through his death grip on the weapon's handle.
Shockwaves blasted outward, whipping through the women's hair and sending visible ripples through the air.
The earthquake-like tremors gradually—forcibly—subsided under his suppression.
Xie Antong stared dumbfounded at the golden figure. She could sense it clearly—divine aura radiated from him now!
And that weapon undoubtedly contained divine will!
The golden mask represented arrogance, represented standing above all others. Before him, no god could remain supreme—so he had become one himself.
The princess shook like a leaf, staring at Lu Ce as if beholding something terrifying. She actually shrank back, trying to hide behind Xie Antong.
Xie Antong tightened her grip on the princess's hand and whispered:
"Everything will be fine."
"Anything else? This is getting dull. Speak if there's more!" Lu Ce's voice boomed like thunder!
"Stop... please don't continue!" The princess seemed to have lost her mind, murmuring incoherently.
Then she turned to Xie Antong, eyes filled with shock.
"He's insane... are you insane too? Can't you see what's happening?!"
"It's fine." Xie Antong comforted her like an elder sister.
If he said it was fine, then it absolutely was!
"Just one more thing."
"I suspect this wedding might be some kind of ritual!"
BOOM!
The weapon in Lu Ce's hands seemed to detonate with an earsplitting blast.
Dazzling light instantly swallowed the golden figure as violent energy surged outward, crashing against him.
"HAHAHAHAHA!"
No figure could be seen within the light—only mad laughter echoed forth before golden radiance erupted anew, matching the overwhelming power blow for blow.
The princess gaped in astonishment.
The entire castle convulsed violently—a full-scale earthquake! Massive boulders broke loose, crashing downward as people below scattered in panic.
"What's happening?!"
"Has the divine anger been provoked?!"
"Our piety must be insufficient... Heaven punishes us!"
Most terrifying of all—from the castle's peak where the wedding would occur, a pillar of light shot skyward, piercing through clouds into the heavens.
Then something straight out of childhood cartoons happened to this world!
The world's background seemed forcibly inverted—daytime scenery rotated away as nighttime scenery rose to replace it!
Yet this transformation remained incomplete. For now, the sky split perfectly—half day, half night!
Starlight and blue sky divided the firmament, creating an incomprehensibly magnificent spectacle.
People outside stopped fleeing entirely. Braving falling debris, they dropped to their knees en masse.
This was divine manifestation!
Divine manifestation!
......
Simultaneously, in the castle's underground dungeon, a battered figure slowly raised its head.
—Sun.
Eyes burning with fiery light flashed with shock and confusion before the corners of his mouth curled upward. His raspy laughter mixed with muttered words.
He recited the Heaven and Earth Society's longstanding motto—the phrase that had existed from the very beginning:
—"Sun and moon rotate... cycles repeat..."
!!!
Back in the chamber, explosions continued erupting around Lu Ce's position. Xie Antong rose worriedly, staring at the intense light at the epicenter.
Was he alright?
Was that... a confrontation with divine power just now?
Please be safe... those explosions...
"Lu..."
