Chapter 315
by fanqienovelChapter 315: The Golden Order of the God of Wealth
As the vast sound faded, the terrifying dark chains that had been swirling above the sky instantly vanished without a trace, as if they had never appeared at all.
“Boom!”
A loud explosion echoed within the golden beam, and then the beam transformed into countless golden lights, dissipating into the void.
Next, magnificent golden chariots, ablaze with true fire, emerged in the sight of all beings.
The golden flames, like the fierce heat of the sun, seemed eager to incinerate all evils in the world.
The mighty steeds, seemingly stepping out from the heart of the sun, exhaled flames of justice from their nostrils, as though they wished to burn away all injustices in the world.
Dressed in red official robes, seventy impressive figures emerged, and the word "Judgment" began to manifest in the sky as soon as they appeared.
Celestial officers on patrol!
Judging all living beings!
At that moment, all the Demigods within the Holy Spirit clan and the Ghost Spirit clan felt a sense of impending disaster.
Especially those Demigods who were either sleeping in the ancestor site or in secluded cultivation quickly awakened.
The instant they stepped out, they sensed the obscurity of heaven and earth today.
The most basic situation had yet to descend; what on earth was going on?
Before they could figure out the whole story, the incredibly strong protective formation of their clan began to tremble violently.
Meanwhile, outside the Ghost Spirit realm.
Forty celestial officers stepped out from their chariots, their momentum stirring the void, and thunder resounded across the sky for their arrival.
"Ghost Spirit clan!"
"Disregarding the ancient covenant!"
"Not obeying the established order!"
"Acting shamelessly!"
"Disrespecting the crown!"
"Judgment!"
"Heavenly Light punishment!"
Their voices boomed like the sound of heaven’s judgment, recounting the sins the Ghost Spirit clan had committed in the past.
Before their words fell silent, forty terrifying powers combined for a single strike.
“Boom——”
The explosive force was so powerful that it trembled the void, and this overwhelming judgment power instantly pierced through the protective formation of the Ghost Spirit clan, smashing it to pieces.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh…”
At the moment the protective formation shattered, a series of piercing sounds echoed around.
Thirteen powerful figures stood outside the Ghost Spirit realm, ready to confront the celestial officers.
The leading celestial officer seemed to ignore the thirteen Demigods before him and continued to announce the judgment of their sins.
“Heavenly Light punishment!”
“Begin!”
As the words were spoken, a powerful force of judgment extended towards the Ghost Spirit clan.
Under the horrified gazes of the Demigods of the Ghost Spirit clan, the female Demigod who had recently offended Su Wen was brought forward.
“Wait, honored celestial officer!”
A Demigod of the Ghost Spirit clan, wearing a crown and carrying a sword at her waist, spoke up, “We are of the bloodline of the Ghost Spirit Marquis. Our ancestors once made great contributions and even sacrificed their souls!”
“For this reason, the Great God once declared that the bloodline of the Ghost Spirit Marquis could be spared from death once under necessary judgment!”
The leading celestial officer paused upon hearing this, then fixed a deep, penetrating gaze on the leader of the Ghost Spirit clan.
“Do you intend to use a reward from a bygone era to nullify the punishment of this era?”
“Disperse at once!”
“Out of respect for the Ghost Spirit Marquis, we will overlook your obstruction of justice this time.”
“Otherwise, the Ghost Spirit clan will be wiped out today!”
The leader of the Ghost Spirit clan fell silent, then cast an apologetic glance at the female Demigod and took a step back.
The other Demigods of the Ghost Spirit clan nearby let out sighs of resignation.
They knew there was no way to stop the celestial officer from carrying out the punishment.
Across from them, a celestial officer with a long sword strapped to his back watched with a flicker of disappointment in his eyes.
The bloodline of the Ghost Spirit Marquis had grown so cowardly!
In the past, the Ghost Spirit Marquis was a powerful being who dominated the region and was a devoted follower of several Great Gods.
If the Ghost Spirit Marquis were still alive and learned that his descendants had committed such a grave offense, he would likely be so enraged that he’d take his own life on the spot.
What a shame!
If the Ghost Spirit clan had even a shred of courage, they might have been able to remove a few obstacles for the Great God of Wealth along the way.
Over time, the Ghost Spirit clan and other Demigod clans had changed. The once unyielding resolve in their minds had weakened.
They all deserved to die!
How dare they covet the Great God of Wealth!
If not for the constraints of the rules, he would have drawn his sword the moment the battle erupted and slaughtered every last one of them, leaving the Ghost Spirit clan and the Holy Spirit clan in utter chaos!
The current Great God was far too lenient.
How could he forgive such offenses from the enemy just because they offered a trivial act of assistance on the battlefield?
A clan like this should have been exterminated long ago—utterly wiped out!
They had no right to exist in this world!
“Heavenly Light!”
“Light it!”
The leading celestial officer raised his hand, and the forty solar steeds behind him let out a unified, thunderous whinny.
In the next moment, the blazing true flame, carrying a terrifying force, accurately landed on the head of the female Demigod of the Ghost Spirit clan, controlled by forty celestial officers.
Then, marking her forehead, the terrifying flames began to slowly and brutally enter her sea of consciousness, body, soul, and true spirit, initiating the Heavenly Light punishment.
At the same time, outside the Holy Spirit realm, thirty celestial officers stepped out of their chariots. Just as they were about to execute the punishment, the leading celestial officer’s gaze flickered, inadvertently sweeping over the direction where Su Wen and the Star God were located.
In the next moment, the cold, murderous aura of the celestial officers seemed to slightly dissipate.
“Holy Spirit clan!”
“According to the law!”
“Execute the Scorched Earth Punishment!”
After declaring the sins, the leading celestial officer, along with his twenty-nine colleagues, unleashed a terrifying power, instantly shattering the great formation of the Holy Spirit clan.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
One by one, Demigods of the Holy Spirit clan emerged from the Holy Spirit realm. After a few seconds of facing off against the thirty celestial officers, an elderly Demigod stepped forward.
Clearly, this Demigod held a very high reputation and strength within the Holy Spirit clan.
“Greetings, honored celestial officer!”
After respectfully bowing, the elder said solemnly, “I hope the honored celestial officer can see clearly that our actions have not committed any major offenses!”
“Everything is done according to the law.”
“Moreover, our ancestors have made significant contributions during past struggles and have been praised and rewarded with the God of Wealth’s golden token.”
“The God of Wealth stated that one golden token can offset one punishment!”
As he finished speaking, the elder focused his thoughts, and a golden token emitting a noble aura appeared in the void.
This was the God of Wealth’s golden token!
The celestial officers looked at the golden token, frowning slightly.
Compared to the actions of the Ghost Spirit clan, the Holy Spirit clan was clearly much wiser.
Moreover, in terms of relations and status, the Holy Spirit clan was far superior to the Ghost Spirit clan.
The celestial officers were under the command of the God of Wealth!
Therefore, the previous era’s decree from the Great God may have been ineffective for the celestial officers, but the God of Wealth’s golden token would certainly be effective for them!
At that moment, hidden below, Su Wen’s eyes moved.
For in the golden token, he felt a sense of pull.
In a vague feeling, he sensed that with just a thought, he could control this golden token.
In other words, at the moment the golden token came into his view, it was under his control.
“Buzz!”
The golden token trembled slightly, sending an invisible wave radiating outward.
In the next moment, the color of the golden token changed, transforming into a pitch-black token that emanated an intense killing intent in the void.
