Lin Ya’s heart was as white as paper. She could not help but feel sorry for herself. She had let down He Chuan’s kindness and wasted two enlightenment pills.
Just as she was about to give up, the medicinal effects started to take effect again. The medicinal effects that had been locked in began to break through the encirclement and gather towards her eyes.
Under the continuous impact, the burning sensation in her eyes disappeared. The power that had wrapped the medicinal effects also disappeared completely.
The cool sensation continued to flow around her eyes, almost making Lin Ya cry out in comfort.
The life force in her body seemed to be drawn and gathered in her eyes.
It was as if a thousand years had passed, also as if an instant had passed.
Lin Ya slowly opened her eyes. The mahogany furniture, cabinets, and beds…
She could see! She could really see!
No longer having to live in the darkness every day, Lin Ya was utterly immersed in the joy of her sight returning.
However, she did not know that the moment she regained her sight, an unforgettable phenomenon appeared in the sky above Glory City.
A dark green pillar of light shot up into the sky, breaking through the clouds in the sky, and was dispersed by the pillar light.
The vitality of Glory City was restored, and the plants began to grow wildly, filling the whole place with vitality.
He Chuan and Lin Cheng raised their heads and looked at the huge shadow in the sky. Like a gentle and beautiful woman. She was waving the vines, praying for the people in the city.
Some people knelt on the ground devoutly and prayed to the shadow in the sky. That was the power brought by the gods.
Suddenly, a vast golden hand tore through the space and grabbed the green shadow into powder.
“An ant dares to pry into the power of the gods. You Don’t know what you’re doing! Death is where you belong!” As the voice disappeared, Glory City regained its calm once again.
The plants stopped growing.
However, no one could detect the voice just now.
He Chuan frowned. He felt a terrifying existence just now, which made his heart palpitate. However, it only appeared for a moment, making him think it was an illusion.
Lin Ya pushed open the door and walked out. Behind her was a faint aura of the revival of all living things, as well as a green light.
“What’s going on? Has it happened in your Lin family before?” He Chuan asked, somewhat puzzled.
“It seems to be the light of some kind of plant.” Lin Cheng’s gaze was fixed on the top of his sister, Lin Ya’s, head. He did not answer his question.
He Chuan was very speechless. He was asking what the green light looked like. He wanted to understand the power behind it.
“There was a record in the Lin family that when a phenomenon appeared in the era of the awakened, they would receive the blessing of the gods.” Lin Cheng came back to his senses and continued to answer.
“The blessing of the gods?” He Chuan stroked his smooth chin and recalled the records about the gods.
The gods belonged to the high and mighty beings, and Lin Ya had the hope of becoming a god in the future just by awakening her bloodline. Wasn’t that a bit too far-fetched?
How could the power of the gods appear in the bodies of mortals?
“It is indeed so in the records! The books once recorded that five people had awakened the phenomenon, but without exception, none of them became gods,” Lin Cheng said seriously.
“Since they didn’t become gods, could it be that the books of the Lin family have made a mistake?” He Chuan was stunned. Since they didn’t become gods, why did they say that visions could become gods?
“The key problem is that these five people died very early. One of them even died when he was eight years old.” Lin Cheng Sighed, and the expression on his face became more and more serious.
“Could it be that there are some secrets in it? Can you finish it all in one go?” He Chuan was very speechless. This guy was panting laboriously when he spoke, and he always paused at the critical moment.
“The reason why the five people died so young was not because of birth, old age, illness, or death, nor was it an accident. Instead, it was because the high and mighty God attacked and killed them all!” Lin Cheng was afraid that his sister would follow in the footsteps of this group of people. Now that he thought about it, it was not necessarily bad to be blind.
After hearing it, He Chuan also realized the seriousness of the matter. Why did God attack and kill them? Could it be that new gods were not allowed to appear, afraid of replacing the gods?
Other than that, there was probably no further explanation. At least He Chuan could not think of any other reason for the time being.
The strange phenomenon behind Lin Ya still had not disappeared. The aura of the revival of all living things made people feel as if they were bathed in the spring breeze.
Suddenly, He Chuan remembered something essential. Back when he became awakened, was there a strange phenomenon accompanying him? If there was, would the gods find a chance to kill him?
However, he was not liked back then. When he awakened, there was no one to protect him. Naturally, no one knew what happened before then.
The key was that compared to Lin Ya and Su Wan’s bloodlines, he was no different from a piece of trash. There was probably no strange phenomenon accompanying him.
Did his cheat count?
“Lin Ya will never forget the kindness of the City Lord. If it weren’t for your help, I would never have seen the light of day in my life.” Lin Ya knelt on the ground in excitement and kept kowtowing to He Chuan!
A man should know how to be kind to a woman. What if a beauty’s forehead was damaged by kowtowing? The key was not to harm her brain. Many things in Glory City needed her help to deal with.
“Get up quickly. As the Military Advisor by my side, I naturally have to think of you. It’s just my duty. There’s no need for such a big ceremony!” He Chuan held Lin Ya’s arms and did not let her kneel.
“How can I not thank you for your great kindness!” Lin Ya said as she wanted to kneel to thank him again.
Why was she more stubborn than a donkey? Could this be something that the Lin family inherited?
“As the Military Advisor, how can you be so excited? You have to keep calm at all times so that you can help me come up with strategies and defend Glory City together!” He Chuan rubbed Lin Ya’s head.
Lin Ya wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, and a bright smile appeared on her pretty face.
“City Lord, don’t worry. I will do my best to help you complete your great undertaking.” Her tone was very determined.
“I will give you three more sacred pills to increase your strength as soon as possible. We don’t have much time left!” When He Chuan saw that she finally stopped kneeling, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
If she continued kneeling, He Chuan would consider going to the bathroom to escape. Who could bear this?
He was not an old man who liked to make others kneel.
After returning to the City Lord’s Residence, He Chuan sat in front of the window and admired the stars in the sky.
He had wasted some time in Freedom City. As the time for the beast tide approached, almost all the rewards in his hands were distributed. He was once again poor.
He did not know if he could lead Glory City to resist the beast tide.
It was all the fault of this lousy system. It had been telling him to spread his wealth every day. How was he supposed to break through now?
Just as he was venting his dissatisfaction, a joyful voice sounded beside his ears.
[Congratulations, host, for completing the act of spreading your wealth without leaving a single cent. The rewards are being sorted out…]
[The rewards have been sorted. You can now draw and return the reward double. Do you want to draw?]
The sudden system notification made him confused. What was going on?
