Solomon

On the seventh day after the Morning Star streaked across the sky, Ye Su stood atop the highest dome of Spirit Hall, looking down at this Holy City in the midst of transformation.

Spirit City was no longer Spirit City. It was now the Holy City.

The dawn light was faint, gilding the entire city with a sacred golden edge. In the distance came the devout prayers of believers, interwoven with the lingering echoes of the morning bells.

Beneath his feet lay the pattern of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, meticulously pieced together from seventy-four thousand pieces of colored glass, each one gleaming with its own unique radiance.

It was a work the soul masters had rushed to complete over the past few days. After all, a true god now resided here.

Morning light passed through the stained glass, casting ever-changing halos around him, as though draping him in flowing holy robes.

A gentle breeze swept by, and patches of refracted light danced across the floor like a flock of cheerful sprites.

"System, display the Reputation Value panel," Ye Su said softly, his voice echoing beneath the empty dome.

Current Reputation Value: 270,000

Main Believer: Michael (formerly Qian Daoliu), Loyalty 92%...

New Believer: Soft Bone Rabbit (Xiao Wu), Loyalty 65%

Ye Su gently stroked the pure white Soul Egg in his arms, feeling the pulse of life within it.

Fine scales emerged across the shell's surface, shimmering with a pearly sheen beneath the sunlight. He could clearly sense the rhythm of the soul inside the shell, a beat full of hope, as though responding to his touch.

He looked down below, where the cathedral of Spirit Hall was undergoing a bustling renovation and reconstruction.

Ever since he had brought Xiao Wu back, he had merely mentioned the concept of the Promised Land in passing, and Bibi Dong had immediately taken action.

In just a few days, all of Spirit City had taken on a brand-new appearance. Even the city's name had been changed to "Jerusalem."

Workers hurried through the streets, their faces brimming with devotion and joy.

Now everyone in Spirit City knew that a god had descended. Even the most insignificant beggar by the roadside began to feel honored by it.

The increase in Role-playing Degree pleased Ye Su.

He had kept Xiao Wu by his side as Qian Renxue's companion. Although, in theory, he should not grow close to women while playing God, Ye Su was well versed in the art of flexibility.

Damn, with such a beautiful girl, was he supposed to let someone else have her instead of adding her to his harem?

Even if God couldn't do it, he could simply stop being God!

"Since this incarnation needs to maintain an image of sacred inviolability, then..." A meaningful smile curled across Ye Su's lips as his fingers tapped rhythmically against the Soul Egg.

When the morning bell rang for the seventh time, a crack suddenly split open across the eggshell, and dazzling light burst forth.

A newborn life broke from the shell. It was neither a rabbit nor a human, but an angel with a pair of wings on her back.

Her wings were white as snow, shining with holy brilliance beneath the morning light.

"Guard this place from now on. Your name is Raphael, my dear child," Ye Su said gently. The newborn angel grew with the wind and soon became a graceful young girl.

She looked up at Ye Su, her eyes filled with childlike affection. In an instant, ten resplendent soul rings condensed beneath her feet. As a guardian angel, she would remain stationed in Spirit Hall forever.

At the same time, Xiao Wu, who was studying with Hu Liena, suddenly felt a pang in her heart.

Her rabbit ears trembled uneasily, and her gaze involuntarily turned toward the center of the holy hall. Something there seemed to be calling to her. The feeling was both familiar and strange.

"Could it be Mother..." Xiao Wu murmured.

Ever since Ye Su had brought her back to Spirit Hall, she had met Bibi Dong once. But Ye Su had already explained that Bibi Dong was no longer the same person she used to be and had become Lucifer.

The hatred of the past no longer seemed necessary. More importantly, Ye Su had promised to bring her mother back into the world.

At that thought, Xiao Wu could no longer restrain the excitement in her heart. She abruptly stood up and, ignoring Hu Liena's puzzled gaze, ran swiftly toward Ye Su.

Just then, the system's notification sounded beside Ye Su's ear:

Detected that the host's Role-playing Degree has increased by 10%. The special authority of "Trinity" has now been triggered.

Second Incarnation generating--

Name: Solomon

Age Setting: 6 years old

Appearance: Golden hair, blue eyes, dignified and handsome

Martial Soul: Book of Solomon

The reflection in the stained glass suddenly twisted and shifted. Ye Su's shadow slowly split apart, transforming into a young boy kneeling on one knee.

When the boy, who was the same age as Xiao Wu, raised his emerald-like eyes, even the Holy Spirit Doves perched atop the dome were startled into flapping wildly, white feathers drifting down in a flutter.

The boy had golden hair as dazzling as sunlight and blue eyes as clear as the sky. His features bore some resemblance to Ye Su's, but they carried more of the dignity and wisdom belonging to humanity.

As morning light streamed through the stained glass, Solomon's youthful fingers brushed over the ancient tome with its gilded cover.

Its pages turned without wind, revealing the true names of the Seventy-two Pillar Demon Gods. Every name shimmered with mysterious light.

At that sacred moment, Xiao Wu rushed in, panting heavily.

Her gaze was immediately drawn to the golden-haired boy before her. The moment their eyes met, Xiao Wu's rabbit ears twitched unconsciously.

"Who are you?" Xiao Wu asked warily, her pink eyes filled with confusion.

This boy she had never seen before was surrounded by an aura more terrifying than that of a Titled Douluo. Yet his emerald eyes held a honey-like warmth that made her afraid while also unable to resist wanting to approach him.

Ye Su's sleeve robes fluttered softly in the morning breeze. "This is your new companion. He is the Son of Man, and his name is Solomon," he said without changing expression. At the same time, he pointed a finger, and a ball of holy light silently sank into Solomon's brow.

A crown-shaped mark symbolizing wisdom immediately appeared on the boy's forehead. It echoed the Tree of Life pattern atop the dome, radiating a gentle glow.

...Stop it, Host! What exactly are you trying to do? The system could not help speaking up. Weren't you only planning to harvest their Faith Value? Why are you suddenly...

Ye Su looked at Xiao Wu's pretty face and thought of Tang San, who might still be somewhere in some corner of the world. The smile on his lips widened involuntarily.

"Only children make choices," he replied righteously. "I want their Faith Value, and I want their Love Value too! I've already transmigrated here. What's wrong with a god like me having a harem?"

Shameless scoundrel! the system said indignantly.

"So what?" Ye Su shrugged unconcernedly.

By then, Xiao Wu had already been completely captivated by Solomon. She suddenly clutched her chest and saw a strange scene appear behind the boy: countless transparent threads of fate descended from the void, each tied to an open tome whose pages were filled with ancient wisdom. When Solomon looked at her, she felt a tremor from the depths of her soul.

"Your mother is here," Solomon suddenly said, his voice crisp and bright, carrying a gentle smile.

He pointed toward Raphael, the guardian angel at the side. "Your mother was reborn as the guardian angel Raphael long ago. Give thanks for God's mercy!"

Xiao Wu's eyes instantly filled with tears. She looked toward the holy angel, and within that gentle gaze, she seemed to see her mother's familiar figure once again.

"Mother..." Xiao Wu could not help reaching out her small hand, yet she did not dare step forward to touch her.
