Chapter 362 - Case Closed (1/2)

The Battle of the Vatican finally came to an end.

Before the battle began, everyone from all over the world thought that the Roman Curia would rise after fighting that battle.

The two notable fighting forces that the Roman Curia put forth shocked everyone in the entire world as well.

They were both at the Divine Treasure Realm, the realm above that of the Airborne Realm.

The combat prowess they had displayed was nothing short of being impressive.

That two-winged angel alone was more than capable of forcing over 100 Airborne Realm fighters to take it on with all they got, yet they still failed in the end.

One could easily tell just how wide the gap between the Airborne Realm and the Divine Treasure Realm truly was.

Even so, both of those Divine Realm entities fought Lu Xuan one after another but still ended up defeated.

The defeat of that two-winged angel, who was considered to be a representative of divine authority, hit everyone especially hard. The death of such an entity in the hands of Lu Xuan was seen by many to be the utter death of divine authority.

Times have changed now.

That was what Lu Xuan had said, which was also the only notable thing remaining in the minds of many people.

Times have truly changed now.

Due to the advancement of contemporary technology, fierce religious devotion was quickly becoming a thing of the past. The number of such devotees was dwindling, especially after they all witnessed the angel’s downfall.

Even if they were not able to see it in person, what happened was clearly seen in the videos circulated all over the internet.

The faiths, beliefs, and worldview of many people shattered right there and then. All manner of suicides took place all over the world.

The theory about Lu Xuan being the legendary devil raged all over Europe and the Americas for quite a while. Many of the typical white, far-left lunatics lamented that Lu Xuan was the cause for so many suicide cases after having completely obliterated people’s beliefs.

Such a way of putting things was quite popular in Huaxia as well. Many people’s demands for Lu Xuan to apologize to the dead and quit being a cultivator were found all over the internet.

Then again, some quite many people sided with Lu Xuan and spoke on his behalf.

“Hey, it was not like he was the one who went looking for trouble in the first place! The Roman Curia was the one that messed with him and yelled about killing him. Are you telling me that Lu Xuan is wrong to fight back?”

Those who spoke in Lu Xuan’s defense spoke just as brazenly, saying that it was the Roman Curia who wanted to demonstrate their authority and reestablish the rule of the divine by killing Lu Xuan in the first place.

Even so, the Roman Curia bit off more than they could chew. As a result, Lu Xuan became the one to end them instead.

The notion of going about killing others being entirely fine but not allowing others to do the same to them was deemed utterly ridiculous.

Those people deemed that the Roman Curia had simply gone too far. They wondered if those at the Vatican believed that they were still in the middle ages.

People all across the internet got into heated arguments all over the place, with supporters of Lu Xuan and those who were against him racking up hundreds of pages with just their heated exchanges alone.

On the other hand, Lu Xuan, who was supposed to be the center of attention, disappeared without a trace instead.

He was sitting cross-legged in a training room deep in the Yunxuan Villa while glittering all over in golden light.

He was working hard to read all that power of faith.

Given how knowledgeable he was, there was no way he couldn’t have known just how troublesome such powers were. The power of faith was a type of pure spiritual energy originating from biological entities, which was something completely different from the ambient energies existing all over the world.

Such power contained all kinds of thoughts and will.

Regular folks had no way of generating such power of faith. It was something that could only be conjured from extremely powerful faith.

It was a form of very intense spiritual and mental energy.

One could end up having their mental state affected by taking in too much of such power.
