The moment the crown touched Liu Li's forehead.
Time seemed to be gently slowed down by an invisible hand.
The seemingly ordinary silver crown, at the instant it was placed upon Liu Li's head.
An ancient imprint, silent for countless years, suddenly awoke!
"Buzz——!"
A low, grand resonance sounded directly in the depths of the souls of all living creatures!
Especially those with angelic bloodlines, who could deeply feel a thrill originating from the core of their blood!
And Liu Li's body trembled violently!
At this moment.
A vast, warm power surged into her body through the silver crown!
This was precisely the final step she lacked to control this world!
Liu Li's golden eyes widened instantly.
Reflected in her pupils were countless pale golden runes, rapidly circulating, combining, and disassembling.
Those runes were ancient and sacred, each corresponding to a natural law in the Angel Realm.
Liu Li's consciousness was enveloped by this torrent, instantly breaking free from the limitations of her physical body, elevating and expanding infinitely!
She saw...
Not the stone slabs of Holy City Square below, but the vast land of the entire Angel Realm.
Mountains, rivers, forests, cities...
She saw the lingering Demonic Qi being slowly purified by the Power of Heaven and Earth, like stains.
She saw countless angelic citizens gazing in her direction, their eyes filled with devotion.
Meanwhile.
Gu Xing perceived that, as Liu Li donned the crown...
An invisible bridge instantly established between Liu Li and the entire Angel Realm.
The massive world power was converging and merging with Liu Li at an unprecedented speed!
"The world is responding to her..."
Gu Xing was stunned.
This scene was very similar to when Qing Shuang received the inheritance in the Ghost Realm, yet it was different.
Qing Shuang received the legacy of a world's will.
But Liu Li was more like being proclaimed as the new ruler by a world's will that remained vibrant, only dormant!
This process lasted about a minute, but to everyone, it felt incredibly long.
When Liu Li opened her eyes again, they were completely different from before.
In the depths of her eyes, it was as if two miniature starry skies were hidden, with countless points of light flickering in and out of existence.
A golden diamond mark also appeared on her forehead.
And the aura around her underwent a qualitative change.
Previously, her power was external, with a destructive edge.
But now, her aura had become restrained and profound.
Every movement seemed to sync with the rhythm of heaven and earth.
She slightly raised her hand, without using any of her own power.
Just a thought.
"Rustle——"
Around the square, those flowers and trees that had withered in the flames of war.
Began to sprout new green shoots at a visible speed.
"A miracle! This is a miracle!"
Countless citizens were moved to tears and fell to the ground, offering their most devout respect to their new queen.
And amidst this devout voice, Liu Li completely mastered this power.
The places damaged by battle quickly returned to normal under her hand.
The Demonic Qi in the entire world also quickly dissipated under Liu Li's deliberate dispersal.
Even the severed arm of the Demon God became the world's nourishment at that moment.
The whole world seemed to return to how it was before the Demons invaded.
And at this time, Liu Li's power also began to slowly retract.
This also meant she had fully accepted this power.
She also became the entire Angel Realm's...
New ruler!
At this moment, the cheers and worship in the square were endless.
But Liu Li turned her gaze to Lanny beside her.
"Lanny."
Lanny was stunned for a moment, not knowing what instructions Liu Li suddenly had for her.
But her shift in identity was quick.
At this time, she had completely transitioned from her previous role as monarch.
She stepped forward a few paces and bowed reverently:
"What orders does Your Majesty have?"
Liu Li, seeing this, spoke frankly:
"I cannot stay here for long."
"I need to follow my master and explore broader worlds."
"Yet, the governance and daily operations of the Angel Realm still require someone to take charge."
She looked at Lanny, her gaze full of trust:
"You are familiar with governance! You have also proven your courage and responsibility in times of crisis."
"While I am away, you shall serve as regent, handling all affairs of the Angel Realm."
Hearing these words, Lanny was completely stunned.
She was never one to covet power.
When she gave up the throne, she never thought of taking it back.
But Liu Li's words...
Her gaze unconsciously swept over Gu Xing.
Suddenly she felt relieved.
Indeed.
If she were Liu Li, she might have made the same choice.
How could a ruler of a world compare to one's own master?
Thus, she respectfully performed a deep bow.
Lanny took a deep breath, stepped back a step, knelt on one knee, and pledged solemnly:
"Lanny vows to follow Your Majesty's decree!"
Liu Li nodded in acknowledgment.
Then she turned, her eyes drifting over Liu Ye, Gu Xing, Qing Shuang, and Vera.
The divine position in the Angel Realm had been secured, the main objective of this trip was already achieved.
It was time to leave as well.
Liu Li also looked at Liu Ye, a hint of inquiry flashing in her eyes:
"Father, will you be coming back with us?"
Although Liu Ye came from an Alternate Space, after spending so much time in the Angel Realm, he had imperceptibly come to see himself as a part of it.
Thus, Liu Li needed to ascertain Liu Ye's own thoughts.
Upon hearing Liu Li's inquiry, the smile on Liu Ye's face slightly faded, and he fell into brief silence.
He had always thought he longed to return to the world where he was born.
But now, faced with this choice, he hesitated.
His gaze swept over this land that had just caught its breath from the flames of war, over the angelic citizens who, though scarred, were filled with hope.
The years spent in the Angel Realm, especially during the Demon Race's invasion and the time when he stood up to lead his people in resistance.
Had long since unknowingly intertwined his fate with this land.
He even subconsciously viewed guarding this place as a personal duty.
This place had also become a second home where he had invested his efforts and found it hard to part with.
More importantly, the Blazing Angels Race...
Liu Li could now bear all the burdens of the Blazing Angels Race.
His only tie to that world was thus let go.
As for Liu Li...
She had become the ruler of this world, and as her father, he should assist his daughter in safeguarding this world.
Thus, Liu Ye's gaze lingered on Lanny and the others, eventually making a decision.
His expression became one of relief.
"Liu Li, Gu Xing."
"I… will not be returning with you."
Upon hearing this, a trace of expected understanding flashed in Liu Li's eyes.
Gu Xing also nodded slightly, having seemingly anticipated it.
Liu Ye continued, looking at Gu Xing, with instructions:
"Give Liu Xia a message for me, telling her..."
"I've found new responsibilities in another world, and I'm doing well."
"Understood!"
After saying goodbye to a few people.
Gu Xing embarked on the return journey with several Guardian Beasts.
