Even Coral did not know how long she had been dreaming for. She cried in front of the gray barrier. The thing she loved the most was about to break.

Just at that moment, her magical instincts suddenly came in front of a massive tree. A voice softly said, “I have drifted from place to place across time and space. This is the first time someone has surrendered so readily after all these years.”

Coral was dumbfounded. Didn’t she die? What was this tree? Where was she?

The voice said, “Do you remember the Gungnir?”

Coral was dumbfounded. “Yes.”

“Do you remember the Deities?”

“Yes.”

“Do you remember a person called Lu Shu?”

Coral was dumbfounded. This name was very familiar. But it seemed to have been forcefully covered in soil by something and died along with the Gungnir.

This name was undoubtedly important. So important that she felt that it was familiar. Everything that had happened in the past seemed to flash past, and then disappear.

“Who… is Lu Shu?”

“Remember this name. He will begin a new era.”

“What era?”

“You will yearn for it.” But the World Tree did not say what kind of era it would be. It remained tight-lipped.

“But why do I have to remember him?” Coral asked softly.

“Because he gave up on me, the most valuable thing in the world, to save your life,” the World Tree chuckled.

“Why do I feel like you’re a tsundere ¹ ,” asked Coral curiously.

“I feel like we can’t continue this conversation.”

The next moment, Coral’s world was once again plunged into darkness. The World Tree mark appeared on Coral’s palm. The Gungnir was no longer in a symbiotic relationship with her. Rather, it was a true weapon that she possessed.

As for the World Tree’s abilities, no one knew what it was capable of.

A faint voice repeated Lu Shu’s name over and over again in the darkness, as if it were trying its best to remember.

Lu Shu took large strides and walked out of the church. When he opened the doors of the church with a bang, the sunlight and blood from outside all came into sight. Everyone momentarily stopped fighting. They looked at the young man standing at the doors of the church. His expression was peaceful, but full of resolution.

The 36 threads from the Sparrow Shade swept forth like a storm. Satan, who was fighting Cao Qingci, could only look on helplessly as he saw his subordinates die one by one. Everyone had been accurately stabbed in the heart.

The 36 grey threads were like strings of death. They killed Satan’s subordinates with great ease.

It was quiet inside the church. Coral silently lay down on the red carpet. Her head was decorated with flowers.

Outside the church, it was chaos. It was a bloodbath. The ground was littered with corpses.

Lu Shu calmly walked through the battlefield. It was as if he was walking through a flower garden. Lives were lost whenever the Sparrow Shade passed by.

Lu Shu was somewhat surprised that Cao Qingci could match up against Satan. Cao Qingci and Chen Zuan were also surprised that Lu Shu could now kill people instantly and easily. How terrifying!

The world was quiet. Lu Shu walked alone.

Following Nie Ting, they had encountered another figure from the Heavenly Network who could calmly kill others. Furthermore, he was still a young man.

The members of the Cartel had also just arrived. They did not even put on makeup before joining the fight. The civilians by the side waved their flags and cheered them on. When the fight became too intense, they sought shelter in a building nearby and cheered through the windows.

It was as if these civilians had become a part of the realm of cultivation. There was no separation between them.

Satan opened and closed his arms. There were sounds of explosions. Lu Shu calmly looked at the battlefield. Satan had the rare ability to control air.

Cao Qingci and the people surrounding Satan had to continuously change positions, as Satan had thinned the air around him. They had to distance themselves away from Satan and breathe before they could continue fighting.

Suddenly, someone jumped down from the rooftop of a building nearby like a wild horse. He carried a flame in his hand and threw it towards Satan. The person was in a frenzy. He shook his fist, as if he was performing. Someone from the Cartel on the street suddenly pulled out a loudspeaker and played rock music. It was as if he had brought his own background music…

Chen Zuan, Cheng Qiuqiao and the rest were dumbfounded. To be honest, they had been on many assignments, but they had never seen such… interesting Metahumans.

Lu Shu paid more attention. That person was Cartel’s leader. He was a fire-strength Metahuman. He was only a single step away from reaching Class A.

Although Satan was strong, Arturo’s strength was unfathomable as well. He dared to support Lu Shu on Sardinia without restraint because he had made up his mind to maintain the Cartel’s neutrality. Now, a majority of the Department of Faith Theory were being held back by the Puppet Master in the northern city. He had to handle attacks from both sides!

Satan felt that the situation was not in his favor and prepared to retreat. Lu Shu laughed coldly. “Did you think you could come and leave as you wish?”

It was no wonder that Satan was called the top Class B in Europe. He suddenly drove Cao Qingci and Arturo out. They chased after him on the streets and fought him. Boom! Bang!

Lu Shu jumped into the sky. He was like a falcon in the sky!

There was no way that no one noticed him. It was as if as long as he was on the battlefield, he would become the center of attention!

The snowy mountain in Lu Shu’s sea of chi suddenly collapsed with a crash. The number of sword prototypes increased again!

A second small sword spirit jumped out of the snowy mountain. It happily huddled with Concealed Arrow.

To Lu Shu’s surprise, the sword spirit within Corpsedog suddenly jumped out and greeted the sword spirit within Concealed Arrow…

Lu Shu looked at the sunlight. He grew melancholic. Since he was not reliable, he would not blame anyone. He was probably the weirdest person in the world. No wonder not many people liked him.

Concealed Arrow and Corpsedog flew towards Satan. When the two flying swords came in front of Satan, he turned around and tried to run. But he did not expect two small, white sword spirits to jump out of Concealed Arrow and Corpsedog. He dodged the first sword spirit that tried to slap him. He also dodged Cao Qingci’s sword. His protective gear blocked the attacks from the Cartel Metahumans. But Concealed Arrow’s sword spirit was laughing merrily. It still had not made its move!

Everything seemed to have stopped in a freeze-frame. The small sword spirit jumped out of Concealed Arrow. Its clear and melodious laughter pierced through the silence. While everyone had their eyes on the sword spirit, it suddenly shook its fist and punched Satan in the crotch!

When Cheng Qiuqiao and Chen Zuan saw this, they wanted to close their eyes. How cruel!

They could not understand what was happening. This was evidently a serious fight. Why was it that the moment Lu Shu appeared, everything had changed?!

If Arturo bringing his own background music was weird enough, what was with Lu Shu?!
