Xuanyuan Che prayed devoutly in the Temple of the Goddess of Light.
Suddenly, a dazzling ray of light burst out from the statue, like a bolt of lightning across the sky, shining straight onto Xuanyuan Che's body.
He was so shocked that he looked up, his eyes fixed on the statue.
At this moment, an incredible scene happened - the statue seemed to be given life, its eyes moved, and an indescribable mysterious light flashed in its eyes.
A deep and majestic voice emanated from the statue's mouth: "Xuanyuan Che, it is precisely because of your unwavering piety and fearless courage that this goddess has deeply touched my heart. Therefore, today I have decided to grant you the miraculous power of healing. Set out now and use this power to save your people who are suffering!"
"Thank you, Goddess!"
Xuanyuan Che's eyes welled with tears, his heart overflowing with gratitude. With trembling hands, he carefully accepted the jade pendant, shrouded in divine light. Instantly, an overwhelming surge of power surged through his heart, invigorating him as if he possessed boundless energy.
Without any hesitation, Xuanyuan Che kowtowed to the statue in gratitude, then stood up, holding the jade pendant, and galloped towards the area where the epidemic was raging.
However, what happened next plunged Xuanyuan Che into an unprecedented shock.
He was shocked to find that no matter where he went, as long as he held the jade pendant tightly in his hand, the already severe epidemic not only did not get any relief, but became even worse.
Those who originally had only mild symptoms rapidly worsened their condition; and those poor people who were already on the verge of death lost their last hope of life in an instant and passed away one after another.
"What on earth is going on?"
Xuanyuan Che's face was filled with despair, his heart was broken, and he could not accept the cruel reality before him.
He stared blankly at the jade pendant in his hand, which was originally crystal clear but now gradually turned as black as ink. He watched it change color bit by bit and finally turned into an icy black crystal.
Yao Jingyue hovered above the Goddess Temple, overlooking the horrific hellish scene below. A wanton and arrogant smile appeared on her face, and a sharp and piercing laugh emanated from her mouth: "Hahahaha! Human Emperor, oh Human Emperor, you are truly foolish! You didn't even realize that you fell into this princess's trap!"
However, just as Yao Jingyue was immersed in her complacency, a dazzling white light suddenly streaked across the sky like lightning. A moment later, the light dissipated, and the figure of a graceful woman—Xingyue—appeared before her.
Xingyue's face was as gloomy as water, and she scolded him harshly, "You lawless demon Jingyue! Not only did you demons cunningly use the Plague God to spread the plague, but now you are so audacious as to impersonate this goddess and deliberately give the evil spirit stone to the Human Emperor, causing the epidemic suffered by the human race to become even more serious. Such evil deeds are simply intolerable to heaven!"
Facing Xingyue's accusations, Yao Jingyue simply sneered contemptuously, "Hmph, so what if I did it? You, Dongming, that human Liu Xue'er, and the son of the West Sea Dragon King are all the culprits responsible for the death of my royal brother, Yao Jingchen. Since that's the case, I, Yao Jingyue, will mobilize the entire demon race to launch a frenzied campaign of revenge against you, the gods, the beasts, and the humans!"
Xingyue chuckled slightly upon hearing this: "Haha... That demon Jingchen, in order to cultivate his so-called 'Yin Gong Dafa', didn't hesitate to kill so many innocent lives. His crimes are truly heinous! I, the goddess, have shown mercy and compassion by not chopping him into pieces!"
Xingyue then spoke sharply, "Furthermore, as to the true motive behind your actions, whether it was selfish desire to satisfy your own endless greed and ambition for power, or a sincere desire to avenge your brother, I'm sure you understand it perfectly well. If that's the case, why bother pretending to be so righteous and committing such heinous acts under the guise of morality?"
At this moment, Xingyue's eyes became increasingly cold, and her words became increasingly sharp. Every word she said was like an extremely sharp arrow, flying straight towards Yao Jingyue.
Yao Jingyue's expression instantly turned extremely grim after her secret thoughts were exposed. She glared at Xingyue fiercely, and a glint of unconcealable jealousy flashed in her narrow and charming eyes.
You must know that as the supremely noble princess of the demon race, now crowned the crown princess and the future heir to the entire demon world, despite possessing supreme honor and esteem, her breathtakingly beautiful face was in reality merely an illusion conjured by powerful demonic magic. As for her true appearance, it was utterly hideous, unbearable to behold.
However, Xingyue is different. Her beauty is natural, as if she were a special favored child of heaven. Not only is she stunningly beautiful, she is also known as the "Goddess of Justice."
Whether it's the gods of the divine realm, the spirits of the underworld, the elves of the spirit realm, the mortals of the human world, or the beasts of the beast realm, all hold Xingyue in reverence and admiration. Even the almighty God of Light and the enigmatic God of the Underworld are deeply enamored with her, cherishing her like a precious treasure. It can be said that Xingyue is a peerless beauty, radiant with light.
"Xingyue, what have you done to deserve this? Why do you get all these good things?" The jealous and resentful demon Jingyue roared angrily.
