"Boom!!"
As Ren Ye murmured in astonishment, he suddenly saw countless rays of rosy light pierce the dark clouds overhead, shooting down into the human world like beams of immortal radiance.
"Whoosh!"
The Headless Man appeared there with an utterly dazed expression, his body stiff, muttering to himself in bewilderment, "He... he's advancing a grade? H-how is the host of this instance supposed to handle this?"
At the same time, the Heavenly Dao's Eye flashed through the rosy light and vanished, without stopping the heavenly phenomenon.
Most importantly, boundless destiny surged within those countless rays. It could not have stopped them even if it wanted to. Had the supreme Heavenly Dao of the Migration Land been governing Nine Li at that moment, it would surely have cursed, "You again, Sandbag? You always manage to give me a little fucking surprise!"
Above, the dark clouds temporarily dispersed, and rays of rosy light containing purple fortune enveloped Ren Ye's physical body.
His heart surged with excitement and high spirits, and he faintly heard the cries of all the people within the light. "We bow to heaven and earth! May the will of the people gather human destiny within the three wonders!!! Help our lord ascend the Dragon Platform and take another step forward!!"
Those ethereal cries felt unreal to Ren Ye, yet moved him deeply.
It had taken less than two years to complete these three unparalleled wonders. Naturally, this owed much to the efforts of his close friends and the wholehearted support of his fellow New Year's Watchers and the Fraud Merchants' Association. But at its root were the common people of Qingliang Commandery, who had spilled their sweat onto the ground, worn iron pick after iron pick into scrap, and leveled mountain after mountain...
*The ancients hadn't lied to me.
