I've Become the King of Villains in the Game

Once the shell was instantly destroyed by the fierce father, the ritual was considered complete.

That's why Floey could be resurrected in the black light.

Such a risky method could only be accomplished by Chen Lun, after all, many conditions were indispensable.

As for why he chose to die under the divine punishment of the fierce father in front of everyone, it was naturally to maximize the influence of the "grand event" and to fake his death, gradually making the world forget him.

The present-day war was instigated single-handedly by him, and by hunting down the high-rank officials of the Empire's camp to force out the Sun King Andre, then using the allied Angels to complete the hunt and murder, up to this point... all preparations were complete.

As long as the Sun King falls, the Empire would be leaderless, and the war would continue, and everyone would remember this terrifying king-slayer of theirs—

The King in Azure.

Until the long war gradually calms down, and the world begins to forget him.

By then, the Angel's Promotion Ceremony would be nearing its end.

This was Chen Lun's final performance.

It was his last trick to deceive the world…

"Your face?"

On the white throne, Floey snuggled in Chen Lun's embrace, looked up, and her purple eyes revealed a panicked expression.

Only to see that the handsome face of the black-hatted Gentleman was covered with cracked patterns, and even bits of crystallized fragments were falling off.

"It's nothing..."

Chen Lun smiled.

The divine punishment of the fierce father was, of course, not so easily endured.

He had to nearly exhaust the billions of Life and Sanity points harvested from players to barely survive.

Yet even so, his body and Spirituality were in collapse.

On the panel, there was now a negative status named "Pure White Hatred," constantly eroding Chen Lun's Life, Physical Strength, and Sanity.

He just recovered a bit, only to have it taken away immediately.

This resulted in his current state being extremely weak.

But he didn't care, because once he entered the final stage of the [Nameless] Promotion Ceremony, the state wouldn't have any impact.

As long as the ceremony was complete.

He could revive at full health all the same.

"Mr. Jack, will you... come back?"

Below the white throne, the entire cadre of the Circus was present, Noah looked up with a face full of concern and asked.

Carmen, Maggie, Antonio, and Alec all cast their gazes, hoping for a good answer.

"Of course."

Chen Lun nodded with a smile.

However, he himself wasn't entirely sure, after all, the Angel's Promotion Ceremony would last for such a long time, there was no guarantee that no accident would happen during the process.

He might even end up in an eternal slumber, it couldn't be ruled out.

But he didn't intend to let his people worry.

Seeing the cadre breathe a sigh of relief, Chen Lun then calmly said:

"In my absence, everyone is to follow Floey's orders, try not to leave the Old Spirit Realm... relatively, it's the safest haven here, even Angels dare not enter."

"Yes, Mr. Jack."

The cadre solemnly agreed.

There were more or less expressions of worry and reluctance on their faces.

Chen Lun didn't say any sentimental words, just smiled and nodded.

He slowly lifted his head, looking at the Proud Sun in the sky of the Old Spirit Realm, and secretly said in his heart:

'If in the future I can become a God, perhaps I can resurrect you again, Arno...'

The Proud Sun's replication was actually a segment of Destiny recorded in the Immortal Realm.

It was a segment of Destiny belonging to Arno that Philip intercepted using "Hide and Seek."

Chen Lun had a strong intuition that once he gained enough power, he could use this segment of Destiny to call back the Proud Sun!

He took a deep breath.

He gave Floey one last look, met her light purple eyes, and said calmly yet firmly:

"Wait for me."

"Mm!"

Floey nodded seriously.

Chen Lun chuckled softly, giving the girl a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Crack... crack...

The cracks on his face seemed to reach the limit and suddenly collapsed.

The whole of Chen Lun turned into a pile of crystalline dust, and with a blow of wind on the Heavenly Fields, he completely disappeared from this world…

Leaving Floey staring blankly at the spot where he vanished.
