The skies bled with the blood of fierce battles.
The forces of the Dark Church and the Holy Temple had deployed their most elite combatants. Such intense clashes between powerhouses were bound to bring ruin to the common folk.
Indeed, it was so!
Countless structures of the Holy Temple collapsed. Six-winged, four-winged, and two-winged angels suffered innumerable casualties.
"Kill!!!"
After Zeus crushed a four-winged angel of the Holy Temple with a single palm strike, he engaged in a fierce battle with Flant, the Temple Master of the Holy Temple. They had been arch-rivals since their youth, each having narrowly escaped death at the other's hands on several occasions.
Old grudges and new hatreds!
Frankly speaking, even without Ye Xuan's instigation through Junai's actions, a war between the Dark Church and the Holy Temple was inevitable.
It was merely a matter of time!
Ye Xuan's act of lighting the fuse had merely brought the inevitable conflict forward.
As the two sides clashed, the question of who was right and who was wrong became irrelevant!
The only thought was to annihilate the enemy as quickly as possible, preferably to the point of their complete annihilation!
Darkness and light could not coexist simultaneously, and thus, the two sides were destined not to survive together.
A quarter of an hour!
Three quarters of an hour! Five quarters of an hour!
Time flowed by unknown. Of the thousand or so remaining members of the Dark Church brought by Zeus, fewer than a hundred were left. The casualties on the side of the Holy Temple were evidently far more severe.
That's right!
Over eight thousand people!
In this battle, over eight thousand people from the Holy Temple perished. And the weakest among them were two-winged angels. One could imagine the immense loss suffered by the Holy Temple.
Of course, the Dark Church also paid a heavy price among its peak combatants. Miluo was severely wounded by the Slaughter Angel, and four of the previous twelve Archdevils were dead or injured.
"Zeus, retreat!"
Miluo, his face pale, flashed away with the injured Archdevil. Zeus, upon hearing this, knew their objective had been achieved and did not linger to fight.
"Bastard!"
"Where do you think you're going?!"
The Desire Angel's eyes seethed with killing intent. The loss of over eight thousand people was something their Holy Temple could not accept.
"Stop!"
The Desire Angel took a step, but before he could pursue, he was called back by the Slaughter Angel. Before he could utter another word, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turning ghastly pale.
Although she had severely wounded Miluo, she had also paid a considerable price herself.
"Slaughter!"
The Desire Angel immediately rushed to Slaughter's side. He had always harbored feelings for the Slaughter Angel, and seeing his beloved woman so grievously injured, the Desire Angel wished he could kill every single member of the Dark Church.
"Enough, Desire Angel."
How could Slaughter not understand the Desire Angel's feelings? "My injuries are not serious. You will now command the Holy Temple to prevent the Dark Church from returning."
"This... Alright."
The Desire Angel frowned. Honestly, if Slaughter hadn't spoken, he wouldn't have bothered cleaning up the mess for the Holy Temple.
Then, the Desire Angel looked at the Fallen Angel. "Fallen, contact the Miasma Angel and the Death Angel, those two good-for-nothings. Have them return to the Temple within a day, or I'll cripple them myself."
The Fallen Angel trembled.
"Yes... Yes, Lord Desire Angel, I'll contact them immediately."
Hearing the Desire Angel's words, the Fallen Angel dared not delay. What a joke!
She knew all too well about the Desire Angel's affections for the Slaughter Angel.
There were a total of ten Hidden Angels in the Holy Temple, ranked from highest to lowest: Charm, Resistance, Slaughter, Desire, Twisted, Light, Rebel, Miasma, Death, and Fallen.
Among them, Miasma, Death, and Fallen were at the peak of the Half-Step Heavenly King realm. Desire, Twisted, Light, and Rebel were Heavenly Kings. Slaughter, on the other hand, was at the peak Heavenly King realm. Above them were Charm and Resistance.
These two were at least at the peak Heavenly King realm, and whether they surpassed the peak Heavenly King realm was unknown.
Of course, the greatest losses were suffered by the Envoys of the six Hidden Angels who had appeared. Of these six Envoys, only slightly over twenty remained, with more than half having perished.
The suicidal combat between the Dark Church and the Holy Temple undoubtedly shocked all factions. No one had expected these two behemoths to suddenly make their move.
Ye Xuan, of course, was unaware of this.
Because he would not waste his time on matters of no value.
Golden dawn light bathed the scene.
Holding the exquisite and beautiful girl in his arms was Heaven's greatest gift to him. He would not allow anything in this world to harm her in the slightest.
If anyone dared to harm Luo Tianyi, even if it meant becoming an enemy of the world, he would make them pay with blood!
After washing up, he went to the balcony.
Gazing at the beautiful scenery outside the Nine Dragons Villa, Ye Xuan had, whether he admitted it or not, reached the pinnacle of this world.
In plain terms, if Ye Xuan wished it.
Neither the Dark Church nor the Holy Temple could stop the overwhelming momentum of his Hades Hall unifying the dark world. However, Ye Xuan's personal inclination was to let things unfold naturally. After all, without rivals, life would lose some of its excitement and anticipation.
He did not want his life to be so monotonous and boring!
However, Ye Xuan had another matter to attend to. This matter was to complete the reward of two hundred billion in rebates.
With that thought.
Ye Xuan dialed the number of Lopuz, whom he hadn't contacted in a long time.
"Hello, Duke Lopuz."
"I think the Best royal palace can be renovated. Let's set the renovation funds at twenty billion."
"Yes, that's right."
After a brief instruction, Ye Xuan directly transferred the colossal sum of twenty billion to Lopuz.
"Ding! Host has spent 20 billion RMB, a tenfold rebate has been awarded, receiving 200 billion RMB!"
The system's voice echoed in his ears. Ye Xuan's lips curved into an arc, and with a hint of anticipation, he opened the system panel.

Looking at the attribute panel, Ye Xuan smiled. The increase in wealth made him feel somewhat happy. To be honest, Ye Xuan had no interest in money at all. What interested him was the soaring number.
Of course, if this thought were known to the outside world, he wondered if people would come at him with swords and knives.
