Chapter 819: Goddess Sacrifice
Duanmu Longhua abruptly turned toward the Goddess Wall Paintings and dropped to her knees. Then, she raised her hands over her head and performed a full kowtow[1].
“You can kowtow all you want. I’m still not going to let you live.”
Duanmu Longhua’s action confused Ye Qing, but he had a bad feeling about this. That was why he decided to throw a punch even before he reached the city lord.
Unfortunately, radiant light burst out of the Rainbow Lake, Moon Altar, and Spring Garden before his fist force could turn her into paste.
As the pillars of light shot into the sky, the colorful light hanging above everyone’s head shot into the sky and joined them.
In this case, everyone did not just include the elders and disciples on the battlefield. It included the disciples and stewards residing in the inner city, the common populace residing in the outer city, and even the visitors who had come to participate in the Goddess Festival.
Previously, the light of one’s destiny and fortune was only visible to the city lord thanks to the Destiny Revealing Disc. But now, everyone could see it.
Physically, the victims felt nothing wrong despite losing their purple, gold, red, or white lights. But mentally, they suddenly found their surroundings much more unfamiliar than before. Everything around them be it tangible objects such as the flora and fauna or intangible things such as the air and clouds loathed and rejected them for some reason, and even their true qi and spirit were flowing stutteringly as if there was a clog somewhere.
They felt loathed by the heavens, abandoned by the earth, hated by gods, and shunned by ghosts. To speak was blasphemy against the world. To breathe was to commit a sin against nature. Even their very birth and existence felt sinful and wrong.
