The Dark Vatican, half-crippled, had fallen from its pedestal.
In a way, the Dark Vatican had become the laughingstock of all factions, a joke after dinner.
They had been beaten so badly, yet they didn't even know who their attacker was!
It was no wonder they were ridiculed. Of course, the Holy Temple of Light shared the same fate.
This incident had also been known to them.
Deep within the Holy Temple of Light.
"What!!"
Upon hearing the report from a four-winged angel, Quake, an eight-winged angel, leaped from his seat upon receiving the information. "Pfft~ Cough cough~!!"
Agitated, Quake's injuries flared, and a mouthful of scarlet blood spurted out. Clearly, Quake had not recovered from being ambushed by Ouyang Ruo Tian that day. After all, it was hundreds of rocket launchers. It was already a miracle he had survived.
He took several deep breaths to calm his turbulent emotions. "Hours ago, the Dark Vatican suffered an unprecedented surprise attack. Four Archangels, including Poseidon, the God of the Sea, perished, along with 86 Divine Guards. Over 300 individuals at the peak of the Half-step War God realm were killed. This..."
"The assailant was also a mysterious powerhouse!"
With a bang, Quake slammed his fist onto the specially made steel table. The incredibly sturdy steel plate was actually dented by his blow. "Damn it, those mysterious individuals must be the attackers! Bastards!!"
"These people are seeking death!!!"
Quake's eyes grew cold. Fortunately, the incident where he was hit by hundreds of rocket launchers had not spread, otherwise, his embarrassment would have been even greater than that of the Dark Vatican.
A joke?
He, who had reached the Half-step Heavenly King realm, had failed to capture the opponent. This was already an unprecedented humiliation for him.
"Hmph~"
"I think you are the one seeking death!"
As soon as Quake finished speaking, a figure exuding a fallen aura appeared like a phantom. Upon seeing the newcomer, Quake became fully alert. "Who are you!?"
Clearly, this was the first time Quake had seen this person. Of course, that wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that the appearance of this fallen woman sent a chill down his spine.
"Heh heh, didn't the Lord of the Holy Temple tell you?"
The woman who entered the scene looked at Quake and chuckled, "But that's understandable. We shouldn't have appeared before the world."
"You can call me the Fallen Angel."
"Or..."
The woman chuckled and looked at Quake, "You can consider me the dark side of the Holy Temple of Light."
"But honestly, the current Holy Temple of Light is really not much to speak of!"
"You insolent fool!!"
Although Quake didn't know who this person was, he couldn't tolerate such disdain. He immediately unleashed his Half-step Heavenly King realm power.
However, before Quake could react, he realized something was wrong. It was too late to dodge. With a bang, he was sent flying by the Fallen Angel's palm, crashing heavily against the wall a dozen meters away.
"Pfft~ You!!!"
Quake's eyes were filled with disbelief. Ignoring his aggravated injuries, he exclaimed, "Peak Half-step Heavenly King realm!"
"How is that possible!!"
Quake couldn't believe it. He had always considered himself to be invincible in the Holy Temple of Light, except for the Lord of the Holy Temple and perhaps two other eight-winged angels. Yet now, this woman had heavily injured him with a single move.
When had such a powerful individual appeared in the Holy Temple of Light? He had no idea.
"Don't think that just because you've侥幸 reached the Half-step Heavenly King realm, you can be disrespectful in front of this angel. Next time, I will kill you myself!"
The Fallen Angel smiled slyly at Quake, causing him to shiver. He could feel a dense killing intent emanating from the woman, and he didn't doubt for a moment that this madwoman would kill him.
"Not convinced?"
The Fallen Angel looked at Quake with a mocking smile, slightly clenching her right fist. Her icy gaze swept over him, making Quake gulp. Damn it, was this woman really a member of the Holy Temple of Light?
"N-no, I don't dare!!"
Quake took a deep breath. How could he dare to show any disrespect now? He knew very well that this lunatic in front of him could not be treated with common sense.
Who knew what this woman would do if he, even for a moment, provoked her.
"From today onwards, I will take over the Holy Temple of Light. Do you have any objections?"
The Fallen Angel smiled ominously. Although she said it as a question, her tone was clearly a command, not a negotiation.
Quake, "..."
Damn it, did I have a choice!?
Quake knew very well that if he showed the slightest reluctance, he would surely be killed by the woman's palm. Although he was ruthless, he was not a fool.
"Of course, I have no objections."
Quake suppressed the urge to strangle the Fallen Angel. His eyes flickered. If the opportunity arose, he would definitely let this woman know what it meant for flowers to be uniquely red.
..........
The next morning.
Ye Xuan had returned to the villa last night. After a great battle, he had slept with his beloved. He was clearly unaware of the impact of the Underworld's attack that had crippled the Dark Vatican, nor was he interested in knowing.
If Luo Tianyi knew what a great feat her man had accomplished yesterday, who knew what her reaction would be.
After a brief intimacy, the quiet and beautiful world of the two always passed too quickly.
After washing up, he entered the villa's living room. Three little ones were playing with the maids.
Ding dong~
Just then, a clear doorbell rang from outside the villa. A maid, with her delicate steps, walked to the door and opened it.
What greeted her was a young man, a handsome youth with a heroic air. "Excuse me, who are you?"
"Ah~"
Feng Chen, who had arrived at the door, blushed slightly upon seeing the beautiful maid. "Pretty sister, my name is Feng Chen. I'm here to find my master and become his disciple."
The maid, "Uh..."
"Looking for a master? To become a disciple??"
The maid quickly realized something and then looked towards the living room, her sweet and pleasant voice calling out, "Young master, there's a young man at the door who says he wants to become your disciple. Is he looking for you...?"
Swoosh~
Before the maid could finish speaking, Feng Chen had already entered the living room. Without a word, upon seeing Ye Xuan, he immediately dropped to his knees with a thud. "Master, please accept your disciple's bow!"
Ye Xuan, "Uh..."
"Who are you? Do I know you??"
Ye Xuan was taken aback by someone kneeling and kowtowing to him to take them as a disciple so early in the morning. This was quite abrupt. The three little ones, hearing their daddy's words, curiously tilted their heads and looked at the big brother kneeling before their daddy. What was this handsome big brother doing? Was he playing a game with daddy? Hee hee hee, it looked so fun~~
