Chapter 463: Riding the Light G.o.d
The artificial thunder and rain had lasted for more than an hour. Now, the temperature was much cooler. The cool breeze blew through the city and everyone felt much more comfortable. The heat and anguish from before had disappeared.
Currently, everyone in Blue Moon City left their house in order to welcome the Light Pope. Everyone craned their necks and paid their respects to the Light G.o.d in their heart. In other words, they were paying respects to the Light Pope, Charles. This was someone who stood at the pinnacle of the Blue Waves Continent.
Suddenly, a deep and distant bell resounded. On the imperial stone path, a gorgeous eight horsed emperor carriage appeared. This Dragon Carriage was left behind by the founding emperor of the Nalan Empire. Even after thousands of years, it was still well maintained. The color and l.u.s.ter of the carriage was left unchanged. Every new emperor of the Nalan Empire would ride in the carriage. It was eight meters high, ten meters long and five meters wide. It had several long silk curtains on left and right side of the carriage. Whenever the wind blew against the carriage, the curtains would dance in the wind. This carriage was pulled by eight unicorns. Each one had four strong and healthy limbs. Their posture was graceful and they had smooth fur without any miscellaneous hair. When the common people saw the carriage, they couldn’t help but feel shocked.
Two rows of elite imperial cavalrymen and attendants cleared the way on the left and right. They looked morally elevated and inviolable. Nalan Ruyue who was wearing the empress robe sat gracefully on the carriage. She was like an overlord, looking at all of her people who were kneeling at the sides. Currently, she looked majestic and serene. She clearly displayed the aura of an emperor.
Long Yi was high up in the air with the Little Lolita. He nodded his head inwardly. Nalan Ruyue didn’t let him down.
The Dragon Carriage advanced very quickly and arrived at the northern city gate in a short amount of time. The priests who were there slightly bowed towards Nalan Ruyue in a show of courtesy. At this moment, Nalan Ruyue wasn’t just a Saintess of the Light Church. She was also the empress of the Nalan Empire. However, the profession of a priest was a n.o.ble one. Other than the Light Pope, they didn’t need to kneel down to anyone else. Just a slight bow was enough to show their respect to Nalan Ruyue. One could well imagine how big of an authority the Light Church had in this era.
Long Yi held onto the Little Lolita in midair. He stared at everything which was happening below him. With a slight movement, Long Yi drifted away.
“Young Master Ximen, in this period of time, you seemed to
be looking at the head of the magic dragon. However, you didn’t manage to see its tail…” Holy Priest Karen smiled and greeted Long Yi the moment he appeared.
“What? Did you, Holy Priest Karen, miss me?” Long Yi directly joked with Karen without giving her a proper greeting. He seemed to have missed the swift and fierce glares from the other priests. The atmosphere became tense and the smell of gunpowder appeared in the air. The moment Holy Priest Karen gave the order, all of the priests were ready to duke it out with Long Yi.
“Young Master Ximen you were spot on. Recently, I felt some kind of anxiety in my heart. It was about something related to you. However, I think His Majesty, the Pope, would be more worried than me. After the coronation ceremony, His Majesty the Pope cannot do without looking for Young Master Ximen. He said that he wanted to have a long talk with you.” Karen smiled despite Long Yi’s disrespect. She didn’t lose her temper at all. Instead, she turned the entire situation around. With a few words, she caused everyone to speculate about the relations.h.i.+p Long Yi had with the Light Pope.
“That’s something which was bound to happen. This Young Master believes that His Majesty, the Pope, was soul brothers with me since a long time ago. When this Young Master and Yue’er got married, I only got a glimpse of it. That was something this Young Master greatly regretted. This time, if there is an opportunity, this Young Master would like the Light Pope to give me some pointers. I would like to be enlightened.” Long Yi said with a smile. Although the words coming from his mouth was polite, the expression on his face and the tone he had was the complete opposite.
Karen and Long Yi looked at each other and smiled. No one knew whether they had a tacit understanding or had evil intentions.

When Long Yi was messing around with Karen, thousands of rosy lights came from the horizon. An auspicious and happy aura surged over like a time which made many people feel comfortable.
A milky white radiance suddenly emerged from the rosy lights and a figure was dimly visible in the midst of the radiance. The figure appeared in the sky above the northern city gate in an instant. There was a light halo behind him and even a pair of wings appeared on his back. Also, a dense light aura filled the entire Blue Moon City.
“Your Majesty the Pope……” Numerous priests greeted the Light Pope and the common people kneeled down. Each and every one of them devoutly looked towards Charles as they prostrated themselves and prayed. In their heart, they felt as though they could die without regrets. Since they saw the Light Pope, Charles, they would be happy even
even in death.
The moment Charles appeared, Holy Priest Karen took the lead. She was the first to pay her respects to the Light Pope. Nalan Ruyue who was about to ascend to the throne was also no exception. Besides, she was the Saintess of the Light Church. She was accustomed to this since a long time ago.
However, there was one person who wasn’t kneeling or paying their respects. It was Long Yi. He held his head high as he stood upright on the ground. He stared at Charles who was floating in the sky with an incomprehensible smile on his face. Now that this old fellow had a favor to ask of him, Long Yi would be able to get away with anything.
Charles’ expression of bemoaning the state of the universe and pitying fate was on his face. His gaze rested on Long Yi for a moment, and his pupils flashed with a fanatical light for an instant before disappearing. As long as Long Yi unraveled the mystery of the light spirit tablet and gave him the chance to inherit the abilities, Charles would accept anything. Even Long Yi’s rude behavior… He could also agree to any request Long Yi had.
“All of you, rise. The Mighty Light G.o.d will bless and protect his believers, vanquish all evils, and let virtuous people have eternal life.” Pope Charles proclaimed using his low voice which could confuse and poison the mind. With a wave of his hand, thousands of white light specks fell to the ground. When these white light specks entered the body, everyone felt that their bones had become lighter. Their bodies also felt more relaxed and comfortable. This made them even more devout and they eagerly called out the slogan of the Light Church.
“Brother-in-law, why did Pope grow wings behind him?” Under the influence of Long Yi, the Little Lolita was unlike the others. She didn’t see the Light Pope as G.o.d.
“Those are fake, brother-in-law can also do that.” Long Yi smiled and replied to her.
“Then wouldn’t that make him a big liar? Just a moment ago, I felt something different about him! He seemed to have become a terrifying person…” Nalan Rumeng innocently bit Long Yi’s ear as she complained. Her senses could be regarded as sharp for someone her ago. She was unexpectedly able to sense the concealed, fanatical intentions the Light Pope had.
“He is the biggest liar in the world. He bluffed his way around using the name of the Light G.o.d. Look, these people are imprisoned in a drum [1].” Long Yi said with a smile on his face.
