Chapter 641: The Holy City’s Operation, Wrath Unleashed

Lu Jun felt that it was finally time to travel the world.

The Divine Wood Well Forbidden Land within the Kunlun Mountains, which represented the Origin of the Curse Element.

The Twelve Golden Men, taken away into its depths, which represented the White Tiger Totem Origin.

And the Space-Time Divine Eye in the America.

There was also the Sea Overturning Pearl, which he had briefly sensed while condensing the Divine Throne of Life and Death and momentarily becoming the Lord of the Magic Plane.

Unfortunately, it was located within the Bermuda region of the Devil’s Triangle.

One of the Three Roof Emperors, the Ocean Emperor, ruled that territory.

Lu Jun could not help but feel apprehensive.

He did not wish to confront one of the Three Roof Emperors so soon.

It would simply be too difficult.

At this moment, the Azure Dragon Sacred Beast, Demonized Mo Fan, and the other powerhouses returned.

The Azure Dragon Totem Sacred Beast’s enormous body, stretching for ten thousand li, soared above the Heaven’s Void Realm of the Nine Provinces.

Azure-golden radiance burst forth from its body as it gradually disintegrated.

The Great Wall, the city towers the beacon towers, the trenches.

Every structure scattered across the sky before returning to their original locations throughout Great Wall Ridge, Yanmen Pass, Jiayuguan Pass, the Ancient Capital, and the other fortifications.

The blood-black sun behind Demonized Mo Fan gradually dimmed.

The Demon Sacrifice Mark contracted before disappearing completely, restoring him to his original state.

Holding the Azure Dragon Pendant in his hand, he stared blankly at the scene before murmuring.

"Little Loach... thank you."

At the same time, the sacred golden patterns and Totem Power covering the six Totem Beasts gradually faded away.

Their auras continuously declined until they returned to the level of Supreme Monarch.

The war had truly come to an end.

Yan Wu approached Lu Jun, who stood suspended in the void.

His expression was tense as he respectfully said,

"Your Excellency Lu, there is still an unfamiliar Ruler Emperor within the Pacific Ocean. It has now become the sole overlord there. I fear it may dominate the entire oceanic situation. Should we eliminate it?"

Lu Jun waved his hand dismissively.

"We’ll deal with it another day."

He intended to wait until his Mermaid Contract Beast advanced to the Emperor level before leaving the matter to the Water Holy Spirit race.

It would serve both as a test for them and as a way to establish his own influence throughout the Pacific Ocean.

That was right.

Lu Jun not only intended to seize the power vacuum within the Magic World.

He also could not neglect control over the top of the marine food chain.

Otherwise, this entire war would have been meaningless.

After overthrowing the old order, one also had the responsibility to establish a new one.

Yan Wu finally relaxed slightly.

He hesitated, preparing to discuss how the spoils of war should be distributed.

Suddenly he saw Lu Jun’s expression change drastically.

An incomparably violent and majestic killing intent erupted from him.

"What happened?!"

Yan Wu was terrified.

He thought he had somehow offended this terrifying existence.

However, Lu Jun completely ignored the Chairman of the Forbidden Curse Association.

Instead, he looked toward the direction of the Magic Capital and even farther west.

"Holy City! Michael! Well done... You’ve done very well!"

Lu Jun roared furiously.

Just moments earlier, he had sensed that the marks he had left in Hangzhou and the Ancient Capital had been triggered.

It was obvious that Tang Yue and his elder sister, Lu Mei, had been attacked!

As for the attackers through the Psychic Imprints, he instantly recognized the overwhelmingly holy and domineering aura.

The Great Angels of the Holy City had personally taken action.

Sariel and Michael.

"Despicable!"

The assassination attempt against the people he cared about most ignited boundless fury within him.

His rage was so overwhelming it seemed capable of setting the entire Pacific Ocean ablaze.

He had never imagined that the Holy City would stoop so low.

Compared with the original timeline, they had become even more shameless.

While he was fighting the decisive battle against the Pacific Empire. They had chosen to attack his loved ones.

Such conduct was even more disgraceful than that of the Sea Demon traitors.

It was no different from Yue Fei of the Song Dynasty fighting on the front lines while the incompetent emperor repeatedly recalled him with thirteen imperial decrees before ultimately executing him.

Lu Jun did not even dare imagine what would have happened had his cultivation not advanced.

He would have been trapped in an impossible situation, attacked from both front and rear.

Even if he had wanted to retreat, the Cold Lunar Eye Demon God would never have allowed him to leave so easily.

Then, with the Angels stabbing him in the back. His downfall would have been inevitable.

Of course, Perhaps it would also have forced an even stronger version of himself to emerge through rebirth.

He had no time to think further.

Closing his eyes, his killing intent surged to its peak.

The vast spiritual power within his forehead poured forth.

Behind him, divine brilliance overflowed as the supreme Divine Thrones of Life and Death suddenly stirred.

Both bore the exact same appearance as Lu Jun.

They instantly shot into the heavens, entered the void, and in the blink of an eye crossed to the distant shore.

The two Divine Thrones alone were sufficient to suppress the two Angels.

Meanwhile, a short time earlier.

Michael and Sariel had sensed the terrifying supreme aura awakening from the direction of the Magic Capital.

Using magic to observe the battle from afar, they witnessed the moment Lu Jun transformed into the Ancient King.

Both were filled with fury, as well as an almost imperceptible fear hidden deep within.

"So he truly is the Ancient King."

Sariel said in a low voice.

"We were wrong."

"All of us were wrong."

"He had already become unstoppable long ago."

"It is far too late to eliminate him now."

"Even the two of us are no longer his opponents."

"We must act immediately."

Michael clenched his fists tightly, unwilling to accept the situation.

"Let’s do as I suggested."

Sariel smiled coldly.

"Capture his loved ones."

"From everything we’ve seen, he values his family and those close to him above all else."

"We’ll use them as bargaining chips."

"Perhaps this will become another Holy Son Wentai incident."

"No one can shake the Holy City’s rule."

Michael remained expressionless.

He was also someone who would stop at nothing.

He simply could not accept Lu Jun’s dual identity as both a human and the ruler of demons and undead.

To him, Lu Jun was the greatest heretic in existence.

He said indifferently.

"Since we’ve already come to the Nine Provinces, changing the plan at the last minute isn’t a problem."

"Originally, we intended to wait until the Nine Provinces and the Pacific Empire exhausted each other before taking the opportunity to capture Lu Jun."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sariel smiled faintly.

"Will you go to the Ancient Capital or Hangzhou?"

Michael remained silent for a moment before replying,

"I’ll go to Hangzhou."

"It’s close to the Magic Capital battlefield."

"Even if something unexpected happens, I’m confident I can hold Lu Jun back for a while."

Sariel nodded.

"Then let’s move."

"We split into two groups."

"The Holy City is eternal and everlasting."

The bald monk Sariel rose into the sky.

Six magnificent wings unfurled behind him as he flew toward the Ancient Capital.

Michael withdrew his gaze and strode toward Hangzhou.

A short while later.

On a ruined street in Hangzhou that had once been submerged by the sea, the beautiful and mature Chief Judge, Tang Yue, was directing the elimination of any hidden Sea Demons.

Suddenly, she sensed something.

Looking toward the end of the street, she saw a tall Western man slowly approaching.

He wore a cyan-golden holy robe.

Eight magnificent wings spread from his back. Every movement radiated incomparable holiness.

It was as though a Great Angel had descended into the mortal world.

Everyone nearby immediately sensed that something was wrong and turned toward the man.

Very soon, one of the well-informed Judges’ faces changed dramatically.

"The Holy City, it’s someone from the Holy City."

Michael completely ignored the group of Judges.

His gaze rested directly on Tang Yue as he said calmly,

"I am Michael, one of the Seven Great Angels of the Holy City."

"You are Tang Yue, correct?"

"Come with me."

Tang Yue stood there in a daze.

Naturally, she had heard of the legendary Angels of the Holy City.

They were figures who existed almost like myths, beings comparable to the greatest Demon Emperors.

Yet now...

Such an existence had appeared before her in reality. And had come to take her away.

After a long silence, Tang Yue took a deep breath before smiling brilliantly.

"Is this because of Lu Jun?"

Michael looked at her with slight surprise before nodding.

"That’s right."

"If you surrender peacefully, I will treat the innocent well."

"Heh."

Tang Yue completely relaxed before letting out a cold laugh.

"So this is the so-called greatness of the Holy City."

"You claim to protect humanity against demons and maintain the order of the Five Continents Magic Associations."

"But in the end you’re nothing more than a group of despicable villains."

"I understand now."

"You couldn’t defeat the real target..."

"So you’ve come after his family to use them as hostages."

Tang Yue’s words struck directly at the heart.

Yet they caused no reaction whatsoever from Michael.

His expression remained completely unchanged as he answered calmly,

"In the end, it is nothing more than victory and defeat."

"When pursuing one’s objective, why concern oneself with the means?"

"Our conversation is over."

He looked at her indifferently.

"Please Miss Tang."

"Hmph!"

Magic power surged from Tang Yue’s body.

She spoke in a low voice.

"Judges of the Nine Provinces have never surrendered without a fight. I will never allow you to interfere with him."
