Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 734: Legacy of Light
With the two inheritances appearing before them, the two chosen candidates for the successor position had heard the trial for each legacy. The wind god wishes to filter those who were worthy to enter his temple by making the trial takers climb up the invisible stairs. Only those who were worthy and reached the floating island will be allowed in his temple to inherit his legacy. Without being able to feel the wind, it is almost impossible to climb up the invisible stairs to reach the floating island. It is forbidden to fly directly to the island as that would be considered cheating.
Xiao Muen observes the empty sky and no one knows if he will be able to do it. Finally he lifted his foot and took one step in the air unexpectedly. He was able to float on the air a foot above the ground. Everyone who was watching in the area was amazed. One step was the beginning. What came after was easier than Xiao Muen thought.
Everyone watches him climb up in the air. Fearless and free as if falling down from such a height never matters.
Ru Lanyu said, "Is he walking on air? Or there is something in the air that I can’t see?"
Everyone looks at the Moon Goddess who has returned to her seat enjoying a new drink made by her system for her. She didn’t expose the content of the Wind God’s trial even though she knew what was happening. That would do against the god who is facilitating the trial.
Yue Xuexia said, "Don’t look at me. A trial is something you must think for yourself or it would be unfair to the god who is facilitating it."
Ru Lanyu and others felt that Yue Xuexia was right. They couldn’t cheat through a trial that involves the gods. Among the three of them, the one who seems to be the most interested with this trial seems to be Ru Lanyu and Han Yoonjun. Lin Ruri had a bit of a problem with heights and didn’t seem to want to continue watching the scene.
Upon seeing this Yue Xuexia had spoken to the Wind God, "God of the Wind, are you willing to accept apostles as well?"
The Wind God who was staring at his future heir turned his head to look at the Moon Goddess below who seems to be talking to him. He glanced at the two humans who had compatibility with wind as well.
He said, {As long as they are able to reach halfway, I will give them a blessing. If they reach the island, I will give them wings of wind.}
With the permission of the God of the Wind, Ru Lanyu and Han Yoonjun also decided to try it. They walk towards the location where Xiao Muen used to be and try to feel the wind so they can pinpoint the exact location of the stairs. Moreover, these wind stairs don’t stay in one place. It would move and so the original path Xiao Muen had walked through would be lost. The two tried a few more times before they could find their first steps. Lin Ruri was watching them with worries in her eyes.
The Moon Goddess asked, "How about you, Xiao Ru? You do not want to try it?"
"I am not good at fighting. Plus, I am not good with heights. If possible I just want to learn how to cure wounds. That way I will be able to support them instead," said Lin Ruri.
Yue Xuexia was about to tell her that healing abilities can be learned even in the trial of the flower goddess when suddenly, the light legacy in her possession had come out without her saying anything. A glowing light suddenly floated above the Moon Goddess and floated around her. This glowing light almost blinded everyone except the divinities in the area.
{Goddess, I would like to choose this child with pure soul as my heir,} the Light Goddess voice resounds in the area. But because she is talking in ancient language only the other soul fragments of the gods can understand her words.
{Very well. You have my permission. Test her as you will,} the Moon Goddess, Yue Xuexia said.
After saying these words, a white pillar of light fell on Lin Ruri’s whole body feeling the warmth that was trying to go inside of her. She slowly closed her eyes and the more light entered the body of Lin Ruri, the more surprised the others who were watching. Even the other gods who were doing their own trials were amazed. After all, the light god never had any trial. It only tests the purity of one’s soul and how large the vessel that can absorb the light could be.
It seems that Lin Ruri was quite a big vessel and her soul is pure making the soul remnant of the Light Goddess be this delighted.
{A light gold colored soul and... An angel’s physique! Such a wonderful discovery. It seems I have found my heir and my beloved daughter.}
Moreover light entered the body of Lin Ruri and it seems to be not going to stop anytime soon. It was until a pair of golden angel wings appeared on Lin Ruri’s forehead that the light started to fade.
The Light Goddess voice lingers, {Unfortunately, her body is still that of a mortal. Only after I help her reach the Huashen Realm can she accept my full legacy. Goddess of the Moon, thank you for helping me find my heir. Even though my blessing cannot be compared to Lord Deva, if you wish for it I can give you some or to anyone who wants to give it to you.}
{Then please goddess of light bestow your blessings to everyone in my group.} The Moon Goddess said.
{Alright!} A small glowing light entered the bodies of Xiao Muen, Ru Lanyu, Han Yoonjun, Han Haerin, Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue. As for Yue Xuexia, he doesn’t need it.
The light goddess had spoken, {As you wish, I have given them all my blessing. At the very least, now everyone in this group had resistance to evil and demonic qi. I am unable to give my blessing to the son of death. It would only cause him harm if he received my blessing. Instead please give this to that child.}
A golden dragon token fell in Yue Xuexia’s hand and heard the Light Goddess say, {With it that child should be able to enter the secret realm of the Holy Dragon race. Death’s broken weapon was sealed there which is a pair to the one he found in this dimension.}
{Goddess of Moon, thank you once again for fulfilling my mission. Once my child has fully inherited my legacy, can I choose to be reincarnated in your world?}
{Of course. I welcome you to my world,} the Moon Goddess said, as she watched the Light Goddess merged with the insignia that appeared on Lin Ruri’s forehead and disappeared.
Lin Ruri who had her eyes closed all this time slowly opens her eyes. She didn’t notice that her hair had a shade of gold or that there were angel wings on her back. Even her modern clothes had changed into a silky white robe and her whole being emits the feeling of purity and light.
She looks confused and looks around, "Hm? Am I dreaming? I think I saw an angel just now. Why does my back feel heavy? Did I fall on it? Xue’er can you please check on my back. It truly feels heavy."
"Hm. It does look heavy. How can you have two pairs?" Yue Xuexia said as she observed the wings closely.
Lin Ruri couldn’t understand what her friend meant and asked, "What two pairs... Ouch! Stop pulling!"
Out of nowhere Yue Xuexia lightly pulled Lin Ruri’s wing, making her twitch in pain. Before she could react her wings had moved on their own and flew away from the Moon Goddess. Lin Ruri finally understood what was happening when she saw a few white feathers fluttering around him. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"What is this? Feathers?" Lin Ruri murmured as she turned around and saw wings on her back. "Eh? What is this!? Wings? I grew wings!?"
It was only after flying around for a bit that Lin Ruri believed everything the angel no, the Light Goddess had said to her in the dream. That she is her successor and holy she suddenly gains not only an ability to fly but also healing, detoxification and purification ability. She couldn’t heal the illness though.
Ru Lanyu watches Lin Ruri screaming as she flies around in the sky and commented, "Those wings indeed look heavy. When do you think she is going down? Isn’t Ruru afraid of heights?"
"AH!!! Save me! Put me down! I want to go down. Boohoo~" screamed Lin Ruri while in the sky.
Han Yoonjun who had just reached half of the invisible stairs gained a new ability which was directly sent to his mind. It’s the blessing of the wind that allows him to control the wind. He had always been precise with control. He controlled his output of wind control and used them as a leverage for flying even for a moment. He was able to fly and chase after his wife. The couple had descended to the land together. It’s just that this scene had stunned not only Ru Lanyu who was midway the invisible stairs like Han Yoonjun but was incapable of controlling wind as precisely as he did.
Ru Lanyu asked, "What the hell? How did you do that!?"
