"Quick! Someone come quickly! Hurry and take uncle down to change his pants!!" Vivian screamed.
"No need," Arnold panted, raising his hand to stop them:
"Such a minor matter, I can evaporate it quickly with holy power, leaving no trace. Besides, holy power has a purifying effect - any filth will be cleansed."
Suddenly, a pleasant fragrance filled the entire hall.
Vivian was dumbfounded.
At that moment, a guard outside reported in.
The guard stepped forward, struck his chest firmly, and knelt on one knee:
"Report to Lady Vivian, the Griffin Knight Order and Raptor Knights Order have arrived. The commanders are waiting outside for your audience!"
Vivian was immediately overjoyed.
She quickly said: "Quick! Please invite the commanders in!"
Vivian was especially delighted, her eyes full of hope.
As the only remaining descendant of the Great Lord of Violet, after her father's death, Moonlily City had become her everything.
This time she had mobilized every resource at her disposal to invite several renowned knight orders from the Xiyue Kingdom, hoping they would help her fight against the impending abyssal invasion.
Because just a week ago,
She had discovered traces of Abyssal Mage activity near Moonlily City.
And multiple pieces of evidence suggested that abyssal monsters were likely to launch an attack on Moonlily City soon.
As a descendant of the great Great Lord of Violet, she would absolutely not allow this city to be invaded by monsters!
Click—
The door opened.
But the next moment, the jubilant Vivian froze.
She saw that,
All those renowned commanders she had worked so hard to invite were now listless and disheveled, being carried in by their subordinates.
The surroundings suddenly fell silent.
Thump, thump, thump, thump—
Four chairs.
All four commanders were placed in chairs, their eyes vacant and spirits low.
If one didn't know better, they might think they had fought for many nights and their bodies had just been completely drained.
Vivian stammered: "What... what's going on here..."
The knights who carried them in all wore bitter expressions and said:
"We apologize, City Lord, but our commanders all encountered some... situations on the way... Please understand..."
Howard, the weakened Griffin Knight commander, pale-lipped and frail, raised his trembling hand and said weakly:
"Lady Vivian... there was no need... really no need..."
"We have all received favors from your House Violet before, helping is only natural... There was no need for such a show of force..."
The Raptor Knights commander also said blankly: "Indeed... even if you wanted to intimidate us old folks... there was no need to use a Law God..."
"We would have been perfectly fine with just talking things through..."
The surroundings instantly fell silent.
Vivian's mind went completely blank.
Clearly, there had been another misunderstanding...
While House Violet was indeed the oldest family in this world, ever since the Great Lord of Violet's death, her family had fallen from grace...
Where would she get a Law God from?!
Looking at the four exhausted commanders, Arnold frowned and said:
"Everyone... did you also feel that gaze?"
At these words,
The four commanders all started, looking at Arnold in surprise:
"Could it be that you also..."
Arnold frowned: "Was it at the 500-meter mark of Chenghua Avenue, in the busy district?"
The four commanders exclaimed in shock: "Exactly!"
Arnold's frown deepened as he said: "Did you suddenly feel like you were being watched, your whole body going cold, your heart stopping, feeling like death was imminent?"
The four commanders exclaimed: "Yes!"
Arnold took a deep breath and said seriously: "Then it seems clear, we all encountered the same thing."
"Could it be that Senior Arnold also fell there?" Howard asked in surprise.
Arnold smiled slightly: "Just a step ahead of you all."
"As expected of Senior Arnold, what a coincidence, what a coincidence!" The four commanders were overjoyed, all cupping their hands in respect to this senior of their knight orders.
Arnold smiled faintly: "Just a coincidence, nothing special. Though sharing such an experience with four legendary commanders could be considered fortunate!"
The four commanders all agreed, exclaiming: "Indeed! Indeed!"
Then, silence fell over the surroundings.
"..."
"..."
They suddenly realized that all falling in the same place...
Didn't seem like something they should be so happy about...
"Of course not!!"
Vivian was about to lose it.
Why had things suddenly developed in such a strange direction?!
Five legendary Sky Knights falling in the same place - no matter how you looked at it, it seemed extremely suspicious!
"If this wasn't arranged by you, Vivian..." Arnold pondered:
"Then it's very likely that a Law God-level powerhouse is currently hiding in this city. With such power, I cannot imagine what their purpose might be!"
Howard's expression also darkened as he said: "Indeed, and they clearly weren't pleased about our arrival. If this being is plotting something, the consequences would be unthinkable."
The other commanders also expressed their concerns.
For a moment,
The surroundings fell silent again.
Just thinking about that terrifying sensation of being watched made them shudder.
If such a being truly wanted to make a move against Moonlily City, even all of them combined probably couldn't harm a single hair on their head.
Vivian swallowed and asked worriedly: "Uncle Knights, if this Law God really exists, what do you think they're doing right now?"
Everyone fell silent.
But in their minds, they all pictured the same scene.
A lofty, ethereal being, standing in the clouds or another dimension, coldly looking down at all of Moonlily City, viewing all the ant-like beings within.
In their eyes, everything was so tiny, everything was dispensable.
...
Meanwhile,
At a certain dessert shop.
"Ahhm~~"
Nanako sat in her chair, staring at Lynn across from her.
Opening her mouth wide, she ate the spoonful of ice cream he fed her in one bite.
If others saw this scene, they would surely find it harmonious, probably thinking it was a handsome noble youth sharing a sweet moment with his cute girlfriend.
"So what's really going on?" Nanako mused while chewing the ice cream, resting one cheek on her palm thoughtfully.
"It's the flower festival today, yet so many Sky Knights suddenly arrived. Could there be a war coming?"
Nanako glanced at Lynn, who was focused on feeding her ice cream.
[It's different now, the ice cream tastes clearly different from when I brought the recipe a thousand years ago...]
[Artificial sweeteners, they're actually using artificial sweeteners. It has strawberry flavor but no strawberries, probably using food coloring and some unhealthy flavoring...]
[Damn it, I knew it. No matter which world, there are always such despicable merchants. Eating too much of this stuff might lead to senile dementia?!]
[I definitely won't eat this stuff!]
Lynn scooped up another large spoonful of ice cream and brought it to Nanako's mouth again, opening his mouth:
"Master, aah—"
Nanako: "..."
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...
