Chapter 391 - Yet Another Sweet Deal (1/2)

That was the main reason why the US government remained silent and did nothing even when faced with all of those raving protests.

They had no way of making sure that they have what it takes to take on Lu Xuan. To their dismay, however, they found that Lu Xuan’s powers have grown even further. That fact was just as exasperating as it could ever get.

That fact was unbelievably vexing for everyone, yet they were able to do nothing but sulk about it.

Lu Xuan’s powers had grown even further, more so than when he killed that two-winged angel back at Vatican City. The possibility of them being able to get rid of Lu Xuan had been reduced even further than before.

The new president who just assumed office banged on his table and yelled, “Contact the Huaxian government right away and make a request of participating in the research if Lu Xuan were to sell the dead bodies of Divine Treasure Realm demons to them like how he always did. They didn’t manage to keep the two-winged angel’s body back then, and we have to be a part of the research looking into the secrets of those Divine Treasure Realm beings. It doesn’t matter how much it will cost; buy a dead body of those demons if possible. I have to get my hands on something!”

The research on the two-winged angel’s was only about halfway complete by the time the body was taken away, which prevented them from fully completing the research.

Several dead bodies of Divine Treasure Realm demons were currently on the market. While none of them were angels, they would have still shared some sort of similarity to that angel if they were all Divine Treasure Realm beings.

That was also what the governments around the world wanted to look into the most: they wanted to find out the common traits that all of the beings shared with each other, then manufacture such powerful beings somehow.

The officials of the European Union who were present looked just as glum as those from the US government even though it did not seem to have anything to do with Lu Xuan, considering he was doing battle at Vatican City back then.

However, Christians all over the world still saw Lu Xuan manage to cut down that two-winged angel via live broadcast.

One could say that what happened caused a massive collapse of faith in regions where Christianity was the main religion.

The incident was strongly related to the cults devoted to worshipping Lu Xuan mushrooming all over the US. Many people who were Christians had converted to cults worshipping Lu Xuan.

Religious freedom was uncommon in Europe, so far fewer cults had developed there. Nonetheless, the core of their beliefs was still based on Christianity, regardless if it was the Roman Catholic variant or that of other Christian sects. Everyone still worshipped God.

The deity-like being that they previously believed to be omnipotent was cut down so easily, leading to the collapse of people’s faith.

Countless people quickly committed suicide, causing social and economic collapse all over Europe.

That was something that many people in Huaxia were unable to relate to because there were very few religious people in Huaxia. Even those who claimed to be religious were actually of very utilitarian mindsets. Deities needed to be able to ensure things like passing exams, bestowing sons to families, blessing the safety of family members, and a variety of other matters before devotees of any kind would come.

Said devotees would quickly ditch their faith and convert if said deities were to ‘fail’ in their ‘duties’.

As such, many Huaxians were essentially atheists. Thus, they were unable to understand what those Americans and Europeans were doing, and what would make so many people want to kill themselves.

They were baffled at the need to do such things over an angel.

The European and American civilizations, which were constructed from the base of such beliefs in the first place, found themselves on the brink of collapse. The religion they wore like a badge of pride and honor was being used to wipe the floor as if it was dirt cheap, to begin with.

Back when such people went about propagating their faith, there was no way for non-believers to bring about effective retorts to their claims. There was hardly any sense of what is right and wrong when it came to religions.

However, things were completely different now. Regardless of what was said and done, the fact that their angel was cut down remained and rendered everyone speechless.

Lu Xuan was the cause of all that; those people hardly thought he was any better than the American officials.
