The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

But when she saw Ning Feng's expression, she knew that he hadn't listened to her.

And so, his anger continued to swell!

"You! Do you even know what that means?"

The sole leader of the largest anti-god group today travels alone to the City of Holy Light.

This isn't how you send someone to their death!

Blinking, Ning Feng seemed somewhat surprised by Alice's outburst, not expecting her to react so strongly.

But he quickly regained his composure and nodded.

"I know."

"I might die."

dead.

Facing the gods, and the most powerful of them all, nothing is surprising.

While the Lord of Holy Light is indeed the head of all benevolent gods, she is not someone to be trifled with, as she wields the authority over the realm of Judgment.

One wrong move could very well lead to utter divine retribution.

Ning Feng was not blindly confident about his future, and he did not think he would easily win the other party's favor.

Moreover, the favor of the gods is never something that can be easily accepted.

"And the worst-case scenario is that I may never be able to escape her control."

"That would be a situation more painful than death."

Ning Feng himself was not sure whether his abilities could be concealed from the Lord of Holy Light.

Perhaps it will be discovered and completely restricted, and only then will everything truly come to an end.

"But, Alice."

Ning Feng got up and walked to Alice's crystal. He knelt down on one knee and pressed his forehead against the crystal wall.

With his eyes closed, his expression was serene, showing no sign of fear.

"This time, I have no choice but to go."

Yes, I have no choice but to go.

"You've misunderstood something. This wasn't my idea to go."

"I actually received an invitation... a personal invitation from the Lord of Holy Light."

! ! ?

"...You mean?"

"Yes, she personally issued a divine decree, ordering me to go to the City of Holy Light."

Although the current situation was hopeless, Ning Feng still smiled and recounted the predicament he was facing.

goo.

Alice, who had been venting her anger, suddenly fell silent, processing the shocking news.

An invitation from the gods.

This might be an unparalleled honor for ordinary mortals, but for Ning Feng, it was nothing more than a death warrant.

"You...aren't the gods unable to find your trace? I remember you saying that before."

"Yes, although I don't know the principle, the gods really can't track my location, and they can also track down all my companions in the Prophet's Guild."

This is another unique aspect of Ning Feng.

He is like an existence outside the river of fate, unpredictable, unknowable, and unlocatable.

Even the gods could not accurately locate him, and their prophecies were often wildly inaccurate.

This is also why the Prophets were able to continue to grow stronger during these twelve years without being blocked by the Church of God.

"But this time is different."

"She didn't search for my location, but left a mental image in someone else, which only reacts when it encounters me."

With a somewhat helpless smile, Ning Feng sighed and said:

"She's unexpectedly cunning."

The Lord of Holy Light noticed him even earlier than Ning Feng, and had secretly placed the invitation on Cecilia long ago.

However, she probably didn't expect Cecilia to keep following her without meeting her, thus postponing this meeting for ten years.

However, since she didn't give any instructions, it seems she didn't care much.

Ten years is a long time for mortals, but it is too short for a god.

It was so short that she probably didn't even realize an accident had happened.

Ning Feng was unaware of this before, but once that thought was activated, he no longer had the option to continue ignoring it.

"So, this time it's not that I want to take the risk, but that I have no other choice."

Meeting Cecilia was like a double-edged sword.

In conveying his ideas, he inevitably stepped into the trap set by the gods.

"Although she didn't force me or explain the consequences of refusing, you understand, right?"

Ah, choices and such never existed.

That's just how reality is; refusing to acknowledge it won't change anything.

but……

winter.

"Can't you just not go?"

Alice pressed her forehead against the crystal wall and whispered:

"Let's run away."

she says:

"It's not the right time yet, you're not ready, are you?"

“I can take you away from here, and taking everything from the Prophets won’t be a problem.”

"So, let's run away first, okay?"

His voice was hoarse, almost a mournful cry.

Even though he understood that this was Alice's plea, Ning Feng could only refuse ruthlessly.

"Alice, I can't do it."

This time, he really couldn't do it.

Tears flowed through the crystal, and Alice slumped down, powerless.

She covered her eyes with her hands, trying to stop the tears, but it was no use.

"Me!"

"I just feel happy these days, I just don't want to see you fail..."

In these ten years, has the only thing we gained been the foresight?

Is Alice really just an outsider?

In the unspoken silence, she uttered her final question:

"Can't you do it for me?"

Don't go and get yourself killed.

Stay for my sake.

Can't it?

"Feel sorry."

"........."

"...But I swear to you."

Ning closed her eyes and whispered her vow.

"I will definitely come back."

Chapter 509 City of Miracles

The City of Holy Light.

Tranquil, serene, peaceful... this is the first impression Ningfeng gets of this land.

The city walls, built of pure white marble, are adorned with various magnificent patterns that tell ancient and mysterious stories.

Angels and priests, priests and kings, kings and nobles, nobles and commoners... different murals tell different stories.

Heroes, mortals, angels, royalty, miracles... It's captivating, drawing you in and making you want to stop and learn more, and moving you deeply.

Above those stories, a pair of enormous eyes silently observe everything.

The story depicted on the mural forms a closed loop, connecting mortals with the divine.

"The gods will always be watching over us..."

Ning Feng shifted his gaze from the text and strode towards the city gate.

There is no moat or soldiers guarding the area; you can come and go as you please.

The City of Holy Light is the most peaceful city in the entire world. No fool would be stupid enough to break into this city and commit evil.

That's pure suicide!

Let alone petty theft, even followers of other evil gods wouldn't want to cause trouble here; that would be tantamount to courting death.
