Ascending to Godhood
As the beautiful Golden-Winged Angel walked towards him, Youlun felt an indescribable joy and excitement.
He spoke, his voice trembling.
"Aoweiliya..."
He stepped forward, embraced his wife tightly, and felt the warmth he hadn't felt in a long time. He felt as if the whole world was in his arms.
Seeing the King and queen embracing each other emotionally, the palace guards cleverly left the courtyard outside the palace.
They were to report this news to the ministers and nobles of the current Kingdom.
The news that the King was not dead quickly spread throughout the entire Lantbless Royal Capital.
People were overjoyed.
A mortal King capable of killing gods is certainly different from an ordinary King.
As long as he exists, the entire Prime Material Plane will be in awe of his power.
Even when walking outside, the people of the Knight Kingdom hold their heads high and walk with their chests out.
The common people felt the confidence that the state had given them, while the nobles saw the benefits that were about to come.
The Legendary Knight Mosa was moved to tears; he didn't know how the King had been resurrected, but that didn't matter.
But he knew that with the King's return, the Randy Knight Kingdom would be at peace.
Only the high priest of the Church of Radiance seemed somewhat happy, but not particularly so.
The return of a King capable of killing gods to the mortal realm is hardly a good thing for him in spreading his faith of Radiance within his Kingdom.
Inside the royal palace courtyard.
Youlun and Aoweiliya sat on the steps, disregarding their image, looking at each other and recounting their experiences.
Youlun omitted his experience of meeting Jiang Yuu, only saying that after killing the god, he fell into a mysterious dimension and underwent a complete transformation.
Aoweiliya also spoke up.
"Youlun, on my way back, I was ambushed by the God of Combat and Murder. My soul and body were severely injured and I was on the verge of death. After giving birth to Manluo'er, I closed my eyes unwillingly, thinking I would never see you again in this life."
"Unexpectedly, after I died, just as my consciousness was about to dissipate, a radiant light enveloped me, pulling me back from the brink of death and healing all my injuries, bringing me to the courtyard of the palace."
"I'm so lucky."
Aoweiliya said happily.
Her words contained little description of how she was suddenly saved, nor any questioning curiosity.
It was as if this was just a normal change.
Youlun understood.
Jiang Yuu retrieved Aoweiliya from the River of Time and changed her perception, and perhaps even everyone else's perception, bringing peace to the matter.
Instead, she remained obsessed with revenge.
"Since I am not dead, I will not let that God of Battle and Murder Aikesi."
Aoweiliya brandished her fist and roared.
"No need, Aoweiliya, I have already avenged you."
Youlun smiled at her and said.
"Hey, when did you get your revenge?"
"Right after you were ambushed, I left the Prime Material World, entered the Void, repelled Aikesi, caught up with his Divine Kingdom, and slew him on his Divine Throne."
"You... you actually defeated a True God. Is this the Path of the Mortal World you've been walking on all these years?"
Aoweiliya was visibly astonished to hear that Youlun had indeed killed a god.
"Yes."
Youlun nodded with a smile.
"My husband is amazing."
Aoweiliya didn't hold back her praise; she looked at her young husband and asked.
"So, Youlun, now that you've been transformed, your body and soul are perfect, which direction will you take in the future?"
then.
Youlun walks the Path of the Mortal World partly because the Transcendent Path has been severed, leaving him with no other choice.
On the other hand, it is to pave another path for ordinary people.
Upon hearing Aoweiliya's question, Youlun thought for a moment and then spoke.
"My Path of the Mortal World is already clear; I have placed the chances of victory for mortals within the vast Sacred River."
"Now, I want to think about my wife and daughter."
He looked intently at Aoweiliya and said.
"Aoweiliya, I've figured it out. My wife is Angel, my daughter is Angel, and you are both immortal Angel, living on Paradise Mountain in the Heaven."
"I want to be with you forever, and for that, I am prepared to ascend to godhood."
"You want to become a god?!"
Aoweiliya exclaimed in delight.
