Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"Great!!" The onlookers immediately cheered enthusiastically.

With the guarantees from Xia Die and Na Ke Xia, the hope of [Golden World] returning to the human world has greatly increased.

Many people have already begun to fantasize about the wonderful life that awaits them.

If the Titan of Death were to disappear and no one were to inherit the power of death, theoretically the balance of life and death in Onphalus would be broken, and no one would ever die again.

But if it were really that ideal, then everything the Golden Bloodline has done all this time would be a joke.

Immortality is always a taboo word, no matter what world you live in.

“Oh no, the crowd has been completely incited…” Aglaia said indifferently.

She looked towards Xia in the distance and said in a deep voice:

"Then Xia, tell me: everything you've said is predicated on our ability to find Cenatos, right?"

"Hehe, thank you, Lady Aglaia, for having the energy to worry about this city." Xia smiled calmly.

"But, citizens, listen to this stroke of luck—"

He shouted:

"—The [Goddess of Death] Xiaodie of Aidiria will surely find Cenatos under my guidance!"

At the same time, Katniss also called out at the opportune moment:

"I am willing to make this commitment!"

"The fire brought back by Your Excellency Xia Die will be managed by the Senate."

"Then, if we can gain your support at the Citizens' Assembly, we will spare no effort to ensure that the Golden Age returns to the world!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the senators erupted in enthusiastic cheers once again.

Amidst the enthusiastic atmosphere, Lai Gushi stood between the two sides and declared:

"The balance has been broken, and the outcome is clear!"

"By the grace of Cephallus and Tarantun, in the name of the divine audience, I have seen—"

“Ohma chose her destiny.”

"The agenda for this citizens' assembly will be changed to..."

[The Herrscher of Consciousness has altered your consciousness; you now find Katniss extremely annoying—]

Suddenly, Lai Gushi paused for a moment.

He then went on to announce:

"The topic of this citizens' assembly will become—is there really a possibility of returning to the Golden Age!"

"?" Katniss, who was about to leave, suddenly turned around.

"what?!"

Chapter 1362 You Really Know Magic

"The resolution will be posted in front of the Wall of Honor, so that all citizens may know the future of the city-state."

"Great, great!!" the congressmen cheered again, with only a few noticing something amiss.

"Great! The Golden Age! The Golden Age! The Golden Age!"

"Golden Age, come back!!"

Amid the cheers, some lawmakers frowned slightly and whispered among themselves.

"Based on the previous situation, the topic should have been changed to 'suspending the fire-chasing journey'... how did it become 'the possibility of returning to the Golden Age'?"

The former focuses on whether the journey to the fire was correct, while the latter focuses on whether the Golden Age was an illusion.

If it is the former, the members of Congress will keep their eyes fixed on the Golden Caucasian faction.

But the latter... focused its attention on Katniss's faction.

"Hmph, so it's come to this after all? But it's alright." At that moment, Xia crossed her arms and looked calmly at Aglaia in the distance.

"Aglaia, Aglaia... what has softened your heart and made your tongue less sharp than it used to be?"

Aglaia replied indifferently:

"Go ahead and wag your tongue as much as you want."

"The journey to seek fire is a fact ordained by the gods, and we will never fail."

"Hehe...is that so?" Na Kexia laughed, "Then we'll see how it goes later."

Although Katniss's faction questioned Legus afterward, Legus overruled their objections and declared the debate over, then dismissed the proceedings.

As the attendees dispersed, only a handful of people remained at the scene.

Aglaia glanced calmly at Xia Die as she approached and said in a deep voice:

"It seems that sending you to find Na Kexia has actually facilitated your cooperation with him?"

"I..." Xia Die seemed a little sad when faced with the questioning.

"Sorry, everyone."

“I know you have a lot of questions to ask, and I will not hide anything from you.”

Aglaia nodded, her expression neither happy nor sad.

"Then... please tell us everything."

"Ah."

Meeting Bai E and Aglaia's gazes, Xia Die explained:

"Actually, he showed me a... long and heavy past."

……

At that time, Yan Huan, Serhis, and Xia Die were still on the mountaintop of Dawn Cloud Cliff, quietly listening to Xia Chui Niu.

At that moment, Xia said solemnly:

"Secondly, why do I say that?"

"As I just explained, the answer lies in that journey to death."

Upon hearing this, Xia Die's pupils widened slightly. "Teacher, you... went to the underworld?"

"What underworld?" Yan Huan was completely bewildered.

This guy was only unconscious for about ten minutes, and he's already gone to another place?

"That's right, as you said, my original physical body was truly exhausted."

At that moment, Xia looked at Yan Huan and said in a deep voice:

"Perhaps your soul is stronger, or perhaps it's because you're not a local and therefore don't have a deep understanding of the underworld."

"Of course, that's not important."

"The important thing is—I overheard a conversation between a group of heroes."

"Next, I will use alchemy to show you what I have seen."

At that moment, Xia, like a charlatan, gathered materials under the watchful eyes of the three and began to scribble wildly on the open ground at the mountain peak.

"Is this alchemy?" Yan Huan stared in astonishment.

"Shouldn't alchemy be about: getting a big cauldron, adding all sorts of strange things into it, and finally synthesizing a golden legend?"

"Do I look like some kind of witch?" Xia looked up and gave Yan Huan a displeased look.

"Don't talk, it will be done soon."

After about half an hour of waiting by the three of them, Xia finally got everything ready.

"Okay." Xia threw down the chalk, opened her arms wide, and shouted:

"Next up is the great magic trick I'm going to perform!"

A flash of light appeared, and the group instinctively shielded their eyes with their hands.

"..."

After the flash of light, there was only endless darkness.

In the dim light, they heard a soft voice.

"have you heard of it?"

The voice sounded like that of a lively and lovely young girl, telling her friend about something new.

"The story of our homeland, the apple of the eye of the sea god—"

Yan Huan squinted and realized that she had returned to the Hero's Bathhouse without even realizing it.

But on second thought, it seems quite reasonable.

As mentioned earlier, Cecis's predecessor, Calypso, was indeed one of the Seven Sages of the Tree Court.

In other words, if the Tree Garden existed in the previous cycle, then it is normal for Ohema's Hero Bath to exist.

A girl who looked remarkably like Xia Die was telling Calypso a story.

She whispered:

"It was a small seaside town, enjoying the sea breeze and bright, peaceful times under the rule of a wise queen."

One day, a dragon descended.

"Its wings can shade trees, and its claws are strong enough to cleave the waves..."

"It broke into the tower, devoured the queen's most beloved daughter, and even took up residence in the palace, looking every bit like a tyrant."

The girl continued:

"The Queen gathered three hundred warriors and subdued the evil dragon with chains."
