Wu Yu watched as Marlowe's sword strike tore through space, only to be blocked by an invisible wall of energy right in front of Virginia.

Virginia remained motionless throughout, her gaze fixed on the endless distance.

To ignore is the greatest contempt.

Wu Yu understood that even Marlowe, the strongest human being, was as insignificant as an ant in the eyes of the gods.

Well, now Wang Du is completely out of the running.

Wu Yu turned around decisively, came to Eugene's side, and said, "Good brother, I reckon the church is the safest place in the capital. Just stay here and don't wander around. If you're lucky, you should have a chance to survive. I doubt the gods would be so bored as to come here and step on ants."

After giving his instructions, Wu Yu turned and walked towards the door.

"Wait, Wu Yu, where are you going?" Eugene was also terrified by the self-immolations of those people outside. Even while inside the church, he kept his eyes closed. Now, hearing that Wu Yu was leaving, he was even more frightened.

"Escape! I can't take the king with me anymore, and I have to find Violet. I can't take you with me," Wu Yu replied. He didn't know if he would be in danger if he went out, so he didn't want to implicate Eugene.

Eugene was indeed too afraid to run out, so he didn't dare to say a word after hearing Wu Yu's words.

"Wait." Wu Yu had just turned around when someone called out to him again.

"Hey, I'm busy, I'm rushing to save someone!" Wu Yu said impatiently. Although Violet was probably already dead, he still had to go home to check. The Sword Saint should have left her some means of protection. As long as she didn't go out, she wouldn't be killed by the divine light.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wu Yu, but I would like to ask you to help me save Her Highness the Holy Maiden first."

Wu Yu turned his head and saw that the one blocking his way was Sharp, whose limbs were chained. His eyes hadn't been burned off, so it seemed he hadn't been reckless enough to look directly at the god.

"Hey, are you kidding me? Didn't you guys ruin Virginia like that? Now I understand, she's the vessel for the gods to descend. Alright, now that the God of Light has arrived, everyone's doomed."

"Save people? Since Virginia has started slaughtering civilians, do you think it will still be her in that body? As for killing the God of Light to avenge Virginia, sorry, I have no attachment to the dead."

Wu Yu said coldly. Although he knew he couldn't beat Sharp, he still didn't give him a good look and prepared to leave while cursing.

“What if I told you that Virginia is actually still alive?” Sharp stated calmly there.

Wu Yu stopped the moment he stepped out the door.
