Inside the resplendent hall, a sudden chill swept through.
Under the flickering lights, Shen Yi's shadow elongated, enveloping Lin Shuya, who was kneeling in despair ahead.
All previous doubts in everyone's hearts were now explained.
Why did the Bodhisattva watch as Shen Yi crushed the new emperor's skull with a single step, and without even a contest, kneel humble and fawning beneath those flowing Xuan Shang robes, before scurrying away in disgrace?
And for what reason, after offending the Immortal Buddha, did not only was this reckless young man not punished by the two sects, but instead greeted with a heaven-shaking entourage to welcome an ascension to emperor?
All these reasons were inherent.
After the former emperor's downfall, the Divine Dynasty not only didn't decline, but welcomed a more formidable demon.
He needed only to stand alone before the Jinluan Hall and with a wave, could slay the True Buddha Emperor, shocking the heavens!
