Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 1481: Chapter 1481: A Dreamlike Radiance

Seeing the Holy Master perform a courteous bow without any pretense, Han Yan felt even more respect for him in his heart. He is the Holy Master, the true ruler of the Holy Court Continent, willing to salute and thank a junior like her for the sake of millions of citizens. Such virtue and integrity befit the ruler of the Holy Court.

If she once harbored some private complaints against the Holy Master due to connections with Tian Annan and Dan Tai Xuan, now, all that’s left is genuine reverence.

After all, the hearts of people are unpredictable. No matter how powerful the Holy Master is, he is human, not a god, and it’s impossible for everything to fall into place perfectly. In such a vast Holy Court, having a few rotten apples is normal and shouldn’t be blamed on him.

”Not just them, we must also properly thank Young Master Mu. Had it not been for Young Master Mu’s early warning, we would have also met a violent end along with those comrades.” At this moment, an elderly man stepped forward, speaking sincerely, and bowed to Han Yan.

The others looked at Han Yan with gratitude and thanked her one by one.

”Esteemed seniors, please don’t flatter a junior like me. I merely chanced upon the Netherworld Beast’s plot, and by chance informed everyone. It’s really nothing significant; the ones truly worthy of admiration are Mr. Qing and those seniors who sacrificed themselves.” Han Yan said with shame.

When Mr. Qing was mentioned, everyone fell into silence.

”Subordinate... Subordinate pays respects to the Holy Master.” At this moment, an elderly man with disheveled hair, appearing extremely pathetic, stepped forward and saluted the Holy Master.

Upon seeing this person, everyone wore expressions of contempt.

Tian Annan, this old fellow actually survived; indeed, the good die young, while the wicked endure for a thousand years. Earlier, had it not been for his insistence, many would have followed Han Yan outside the range of the Netherworld Beast’s array; it was because they were swayed by him and Gong Liyan that they remained inside.

In the end, over seven hundred powerful individuals from various countries, including Gong Liyan himself and all the Holy Court experts, perished tragically within the array, yet he survived ignobly, living to see this day.

”Humph!” The Holy Master snorted coldly, not even looking at him directly.

Earlier, when everyone was saluting and thanking Han Yan, he had already inquired into the matter and learned that a substantial number of continent experts perished due to Tian Annan, so he naturally wouldn’t grant him a good expression.

”Holy Master, I know my faults and wish to offer my life to repent before the world!” Seeing the Holy Master’s icy demeanor, Tian Annan was frightened into a cold sweat, kneeling on the ground and speaking.

”Humph, offer your life in repentance? Where were you when Mr. Qing and others self-destructed for the salvation of others? Now you wish for death?” The Holy Master sneered.

Tian Annan was drenched in cold sweat, but had no words to respond, as he only thought of fleeing when Mr. Qing and others sacrificed themselves.

”Enough. Your stubbornness and refusal to heed advice have cost the lives of many of Holy Court Continent’s mighty. Given your wish for death, I shall fulfill it.” The Holy Master said as he raised his hand.

Tian Annan’s face turned ashen, yet he couldn’t muster any resistance.

Just as the Holy Master’s palm was about to strike Tian Annan’s head, suddenly, a dreamy light soared into the sky from a distant place.

Although that light seemed to be at the far end of tens of thousands of miles, with its appearance, the earth trembled violently, and Heaven and Earth Power became extremely chaotic.

Except for Han Yan, Huayue, and others, nearly everyone present was a Sword Saint Realm expert. Yet, at this moment, under the interference of that chaotic Heaven and Earth Power, their Holy Saint Gang Qi felt like a quagmire, difficult to employ, each swaying like ordinary people, unable to keep steady footing.

”What’s going on?” Everyone was shocked and terrified.
