"Xueyi, do you not take me seriously?"
But the coldness in his words was like countless icy steel needles, piercing into the very marrow of every demon present.
The temperature inside the hall seemed to drop to freezing point instantly.
All the kneeling demons buried their heads even deeper, fearing they would be caught in the wrath of this god.
Xueyi swallowed hard in fear.
She finally understood.
It turns out that my god's attack on Kunsa Star was not a spur-of-the-moment decision.
He was warning himself!
He felt he was challenging his authority!
She dared not look into Lin Ci's eyes again, her voice trembling, with a hint of crying.
"My God! My God, you've misunderstood! I have not declared myself king!"
"Everything I've done is so that I can see you again!"
Lin Ci raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly showing some interest.
Having received permission, Xueyi grasped at a straw and spoke urgently.
"The era of the Three Kings lasted far too long, and my God You have never returned."
"I have asked Queen Keisha and the others about you many times, but each time they have been vague and ambiguous."
"I suspect... I suspect they're hiding something from us, and might even be disrespectful to you!"
Xueyi's voice grew more and more agitated as she spoke, as if she had truly suffered a great injustice.
"That's why I decided to break away from the angelic civilization and establish the so-called demon legion. I spread the theory of corruption and freedom, and made such a big commotion."
"It's all to find your trace in the vast universe, to attract your attention!"
She looked up at Lin Ci with teary eyes, her beautiful face filled with grievance and devotion.
"My God, everything I've done, truly, is just so I can see you one more time!"
Chapter 144 That voice belongs to Instructor Lin Ci!
After listening to Xue Yi's tearful account, a look of realization flashed in Lin Ci's eyes.
Thirty thousand years ago, he supported Keisha, Liang Bing, and He Xi in overthrowing Hua Ye and establishing a just order.
After he left, Keisha and the other two kings ruled together.
As for Xueyi, an angel who once followed King Liangbing of Apocalypse, her fanatical worship of herself caused a disagreement with the three kings' ideals.
She suspected that Keisha and the others were hiding the truth about her, and might even be disrespectful to her.
So she chose an extreme path.
Departing from the angelic civilization, she established her own power base, transforming into the demon queen Morgana, and unleashing a reign of terror across the universe.
She did all this not for any kind of depravity or freedom.
She just wanted to make a big deal out of it.
Large enough to attract the attention of the legendary "Lord of All Gods," who was merely a moth fluttering desperately in the universe.
So, by doing this, I've once again indirectly created what's called a demon?
Lin Ci paused, the fingers holding the wine glass twitching slightly, a playful smile curving his lips.
This cause and effect is truly interesting.
He downed the crimson liquid in his glass in one gulp, then casually tossed the goblet aside.
The crystal glass traced an arc in the air, but just before it hit the ground and shattered, it turned into specks of light and vanished without a trace.
"Come forward."
Lin Ci's voice was not loud, but it clearly reached the ears of every living being in the hall.
Xueyi, kneeling on the ground, trembled and crawled forward without the slightest hesitation.
He crawled down to the throne, his forehead pressed tightly against the cold metal floor.
"Keep your head up."
Xueyi slowly raised her head, her beautiful face now filled with humility and trepidation.
Lin Ci looked down at her, his gaze calm.
"From this day forward, the demonic civilization will be bathed in my faith."
"From now on, you will live in my glory."
Shee's eyes lit up instantly, and immense joy overwhelmed all her fear.
She waited tens of thousands of years, wasn't this the moment she was waiting for?
"My God! Xueyi... Xueyi obeys!"
Her voice trembled violently with excitement.
"My god..."
Shee seemed to have thought of something, and her tone became hesitant again.
"The Angelic Civilization... they've always seen me as a traitor. Queen Keisha and her people have been hunting me down everywhere, wanting to put me on trial..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ci simply waved his hand casually.
"That's no problem."
He said it lightly.
"With me here, I will help you make peace."
In Xueyi's view, a single promise was enough to stir up cosmic waves and bring the two top civilizations, angels and demons, to a truce.
When he said it, it sounded as if he were talking about something trivial.
Sheeyi's eyes shone with an unprecedented brilliance.
She slammed her head heavily onto the ground.
"Thank God!"
"My God, there is one more thing..."
Xueyi raised her head and looked at Lin Ci cautiously.
"Our demonic homeworld... Kunsa was previously... occupied by an army claiming to be your subordinates..."
"Then... can we have it back?"
Lin Ci raised an eyebrow slightly.
He didn't know about this, but he figured it must have been done by the Holy Lord and his group.
It was perfectly normal for him to give orders to conquer the universe, spread his faith, and occupy a planet.
Lin Ci looked at Xue Yi's expectant eyes and smiled faintly.
"do not worry."
"Before long, the entire known universe will be under my faith."
"At that time, we'll all be family, so why distinguish between us?"
Xueyi paused for a moment, then understood what Lin Ci meant.
When the entire universe belongs to the gods, what is a tiny planet like Kunsa?
How could she possibly fathom the scope of God's will?
"Yes! My God is right!"
She bowed in submission once more, with no more doubts in her heart.
She led all the demons behind her, shouting in unison.
"We are willing to offer everything for the Lord of all gods!"
"We will believe in our God forever!"
The sounds converged into a torrent, resounding throughout Devil One.
"Beep! Beep! Beep—!"
A piercing alarm suddenly blared throughout the entire hall.
A bright red warning projection unfolded before the throne.
[WARNING! Unidentified flying object detected approaching at high speed!]
The demons inside the hall instantly stirred, their hearts leaping into their throats once more.
Xueyi's expression also changed, and she subconsciously looked at Lin Ci on the throne.
Lin Ci's expression remained unchanged.
He simply raised his eyes, his gaze seemingly piercing through the layers of armor of the Devil One, looking into the deep distance.
He sensed several familiar presences.
Then he laughed.
"Let them in."
"They are all our own people."
In the starry sky beyond Devil One.
Zhi Xin led Ge Xiaolun, Qi Lin, Zhao Xin, Liu Chuang, and Rui Mengmeng, hovering in front of the massive steel fortress.
This monstrous warship exudes an unsettling aura of evil.
A layer of dark red energy shield completely enveloped the entire warship.
