Chapter 38: The Apparition of the God
Late at night, Jiang Yang was broadcasting live and still thinking about the next plot when he heard a knock on the door.
Each call was more urgent than the last. Jiang Yang didn't even need to think about it to know that the person outside the door was urging him.
She was a little panicked. The person knocking on the door at this time could only be Chongming.
But Chongming had never knocked on the door so urgently before, unless something fatal happened.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yang didn't dare to delay for a moment and hurriedly opened the door.
Outside the door, Chongming pushed the door open and walked in. He saw Jiang Yang's anxious face, blushes quickly appearing on both sides of his cheeks, and some cold sweat on his forehead.
Seeing this, Chongming calmed down instead.
He quickly closed the door, took two breaths, and thought about how to tell Jiang Yang the news as gently as possible.
He was calm, but Jiang Yang was still anxious.
Seeing that Chongming didn't say anything, a thousand thoughts flashed through his mind, and he even thought about what would happen if he and Chongming were caught in jail.
"What happened? Why are you so anxious? Did the people from the Temple of Light discover your identity?"
Having said that, Jiang Yang was about to pack up and prepare to run away.
She kept repeating, "If all else fails, we'll just run away. The fact that the people from the Temple of Light were able to send you back proves that they may have some suspicions, but they have no evidence."
"We took advantage of this time to quietly escape. By the time they realize what's happening, they'll be so far away, how can they find us?"
Chongming stopped Jiang Yang's anxious steps, held Jiang Yang's arms with both hands and barely held her down.
"It has nothing to do with live broadcast," Chongming said slowly.
"The people from the Temple of Light just picked me up to discuss the matter of the secret room."
Although Jiang Yang was still a little confused, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
"Secret Chamber? What does the Secret Chamber of the Temple of Light have to do with you? Didn't you just go to the Temple of Light?"
"Doesn't that secret room say that no one except the high priest and the officiant can approach? Even if something is lost, it can't be found on you, right?"
Chongming's face looked a little ugly, as if he had something to hide.
After a while, under Jiang Yang's urging gaze, he said, "Nothing was lost in the secret room."
"It was the divine statue in the secret room that appeared..."
Jiang Yang was confused. "It's just a statue showing its divine power. Is it necessary to mobilize such a large force?"
"Even a non-staff member who hasn't yet joined the Temple of Light must be taken to the Priest's Hall immediately?"
Chongming looked at the dark sky outside the window and said solemnly, "Statues are the representations of gods in the mortal world, accepting offerings from believers. They have always been closely connected with the gods themselves."
“Not to mention the statue enshrined in the secret room of the Temple of Light. It was personally crafted by His Majesty the God of Light and has been worshipped for tens of millions of years. It can be said to be the incarnation of His Majesty the God of Light.
Since the fall of the gods, the statues of gods in this world have no longer appeared holy, but now they appear holy before people..."
Jiang Yang took over the conversation and followed Chongming's gaze outside the house, as if he could see the future through this world.
"According to what you said, the sudden appearance of the statue of the God of Light indicates that the God of Light is about to awaken, doesn't it?"
Chongming frowned, "Even if he doesn't wake up now, he will wake up soon."
Jiang Yang was stunned. He never expected that the God of Light, who had been sleeping for tens of millions of years, would appear in the world today.
She murmured, "Didn't they say that most of the gods died in that apocalyptic disaster?"
"I never thought that a dead god could be resurrected..."
Jiang Yang: "I never thought the God of Light would be so stingy. I just wrote that he was a white moonlight and he was about to wake up..."
"If he saw what was behind me and knew that I was Zhu Qing, wouldn't he be so angry that he would show up immediately to catch me?"
Chongming's frown immediately relaxed, and he turned to look at Jiang Yang with disbelief in his eyes.
"No, you...is this the first thing you thought of?"
I don’t know if it was because he was angry or what, but Chongming’s language system was obviously a little confused.
"Shouldn't you consider whether His Majesty the God of Light would come looking for you if he truly awakened and found out you were spreading rumors about Him?"
Jiang Yang laughed dryly, "Haha, I don't even need to think to know that He will definitely come find me."
"If I was the one being slandered, I would definitely rush to that person's door and arrest him..."
Before Jiang Yang finished speaking, his face tightened and his hands clenched into fists, looking like he was about to resort to lynching.
Soon, she remembered that she was the one spreading rumors, and all her strength drained away, and she put on a bitter face.
Zhongming sighed and said soothingly, "That's not necessarily true. His Majesty the God of Light has always been tolerant and tolerant, and rarely gets angry with his followers. At least in all the years I've served him, I've never heard him get angry."
Jiang Yang was surprised. When he heard Chongming's words, he felt like he had escaped a disaster.
"Really? That's good, that's good."
Seemingly a little worried, Jiang Yang asked again:
"Even if I spread rumors about the God of Light, will he forgive me?"
The relief on Chongming's face suddenly froze, and he stammered for a few words before speaking:
"Should, probably, possibly... not..."
Jiang Yang almost collapsed to the ground, but quickly calmed down.
Jiang Yang clenched his fists and placed them in front of his chest, as if this made him feel at ease.
"Anyway, there's still some time before the God of Light fully awakens, so let's use this time to escape!"
"Zhongming, think quickly, is there any god who is at odds with the God of Light and who we can avoid?"
"If all else fails, we can find a god who isn't close to the God of Light. As long as the God of Light can't find us in that god's territory, that'll be fine."
Because the God of Light revived ahead of time, Chongming's original plans were completely disrupted, and his thoughts could not fully return to normal for a while.
Now after hearing Jiang Yang's words, he subconsciously felt that Jiang Yang was right and thought along the lines of what she said.
"Although His Majesty the God of Light has always lived in seclusion, his relationship with the gods is surprisingly good."
Chongming recalled, "If you ask me to find a god who is at odds with His Majesty the God of Light, it would be difficult for me to do so right now."
"However," facing Jiang Yang's somewhat disappointed eyes, Chongming tried desperately to find a god in his mind who was at odds with the God of Light.
"However, there were rumors before that there was something fishy going on between the Dark God and the Light God."
"Among all the gods, these two are not particularly amicable due to their natural attributes. When I was serving His Majesty the God of Light, the two of them were never seen together."
"Later, there were rumors that the God of Light and the God of Darkness had fought. Although the reason was unknown, the two gods never met again, not even a single word exchanged."
"Even Her Majesty, Mother Earth, who has always had a close personal relationship with His Majesty the God of Light, has never mentioned the God of Darkness in front of His Majesty the God of Light."
