Facing an Ancient God for a Year-Chapter 1358 - 1356: Fallen Guest Empire (15)

"Is there still someone on the way? That’s alright, we can wait a little longer, let’s try to let more people hear the Gospel."

Scarlet long feathers moved without wind, facing the silent Lady Raven, Fu Qian continued to speak with gentle concern, exhibiting a gracious mentor demeanor.

Unfortunately, the other party didn’t seem to appreciate it, continuing to stare at his face as if looking at an alien.

"Who exactly are you? What is your true purpose?"

While uttering these two questions, Lady Raven’s originally stern face elongated slightly again, becoming rigid like a mask.

Having no further denial about someone being on the way was at least comforting, advancing the topic further.

"What I am, that’s a good question."

Fu Qian did not hide his satisfaction, taking a deep breath, his features rapidly transformed.

Scratch!

Once again changing into Herbert, this time he didn’t choose red eyes and fangs, but rather spent extravagantly to pull out a pair of menacing wings from his back.

At the same time, he maintained his individuality by not choosing the common bat wings of the Bloodline Clan, retaining the Angel Dungeon’s wingless form.

This favored design of his might be less aerodynamic but surely offers a greater visual impact, making it quite suitable here.

At least Lady Raven’s reaction proved that.

...

As a leader of the Resistance Organization, with the prior impact serving as a cushion, she wasn’t stunned but her gaze was still hard to divert from Fu Qian’s back.

In fact, at this moment, the scarlet feathers densely covering her were not only wrapping around her body but also forming a wing-like shape behind her.

This was likely the origin of the name Lady Raven.

Fu Qian certainly noticed that this was far more than just a visual effect.

Those seemingly delicate feathers weren’t just conventionally warm, surprisingly embodying a trace of the technique Brother Jake used to trap him.

Impenetrable.

Although there’s a significant gap in completion, Fu Qian believed this feather robe was enough to shield her from most assaults.

It was clearly a countermeasure against possible aggression.

Unfortunately, it evidently did not help against the visual impact.

"Bloodline Clan..."

Lady Raven finally, without prompting, articulated what Fu Qian intended to convey.

"I prefer you to call me Dark Moon Apostle, foremost."

Fu Qian was pleased with this response, even his voice turned ethereal.

"Ignorance and blindness are not your faults, after all, not everyone can touch that sublime proximity."

"Fortunately, the Bloodline Clan closer to the Stars Association has helped you discover your errors and receive the true Gospel. You’re right, it’s a painful process."

"...Are you saying you risk appearing here solely to deliver the correct belief to us?"

Faced with Fu Qian’s overly charlatan-like expression, Lady Raven clearly understood but didn’t quite believe it.

"Why not? There’s a saying: ’To hear the Tao in the morning, one can die content by evening.’

Fu Qian was indifferent to this hesitation, gazing at a forty-five-degree angle.

"Death... So are you still intending to target us, perhaps deliberately gathering us together?"

A particular phrase in his words clearly triggered Lady Raven.

Her mind quickly running wild, she started suspecting everything.

"It goes without saying, of course I gathered you together intentionally."

Fu Qian shot her a curious glance, frighteningly candid.

"I knew you would come, knew your purpose, and refused to allow one of those goals to be fulfilled. If not to gather you all here, why waste this time?"

...

"But you won’t let them leave."

Seeing the originally regal lady now in a state of intense eye-flashing, Fu Qian smiled meanly.

"Because you’re unsure if this is a bluff after realizing the ensuing danger. You don’t believe I truly have the ability to wipe you out, but most importantly..."

"You can’t accept the failure of this operation’s objective because this fortunate group is still too immature to withstand the turmoil of faith."

"Nonsense! Each Awakener knows exactly what they are doing, what they are pursuing."

Fu Qian’s words were clearly quite damaging, leaving Lady Raven momentarily at a loss.

Yet, considering the final ridicule was too harsh, she was stimulated to open and rebut.

"Is that so? Then tell me, why are you all so sensitive about ’death’? In a dream of perception."

Unfortunately for Fu Qian, such declarative arguments were truly feeble.

"Whether it’s Marianne or your earlier reaction, I seem to have reached an interesting conclusion. None of you Awakeners have died once in this nightmare, even though you think it’s unreal... Am I right?"

The distorted long wings behind rolled to the front, Fu Qian’s fingers lightly skimming over them, staring down Lady Raven. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

She stayed silent.

"Indeed."

This didn’t hinder Fu Qian from extracting the answer, his face instantly showing more pronounced mockery.

"However, don’t worry, the death previously mentioned wasn’t referring to you."

Hmm?

This sudden twist clearly incited strong reactions.

"What do you mean? Is it your own death?"

When saying this, Lady Raven undoubtedly voiced absurdity.

"Theoretically, quite possible."

Unexpectedly, the mysterious figure across slightly nodded, actually affirming.

"Now that we’ve waited, are we all here? Shall we organize to observe outside?"

...

"No need, let’s tidy up here slightly."

Fu Qian’s final words finally prompted Lady Raven to make a decisive move.

With a deep breath, she spread her arms towards the void.

Even the wings behind her became flamboyant.

With this motion, faint sounds of breaking came from all directions, as if the room was a balloon inflating, rapidly expanding.

In mere breaths, the broken, deformed walls had already grouped into a much larger circular space.

Even the ceiling was torn open, revealing an even deeper darkness above.

Marvelous!

Seeing this meeting chamber transform into an open-air Colosseum, Fu Qian praised internally.

Moreover, to his satisfaction, in the next moment, all around the Colosseum from various twisted holes, emerged sharp and fierce gazes, encircling him tightly.

"Everyone’s here, let us begin."

As the subject being watched, Fu Qian calmly glanced at Lady Raven, who had retreated to the edge, protected behind others, with no intent to waste words, he utilized Silent Contemplation from Insight.
