Chapter 303: Chapter 177: Where Life Proliferates (Part 3)

The progress of the investigation for those entering the city will stop here for now. Although many issues remain unresolved, with Li Ang joining the group, this already marks a significant improvent.

Li Ang and his companion started their journey back.

Halfway through, Elaphia suddenly asked, "What are your plans next?"

"What do you an? How to deal with the Fairy Dragon? If the strongest one has stronger Illusion and Displacent abilities, I will use Wide Area Slowdown—oh, that’s my new Secret Technique—"

"I an, after the council eting."

Elaphia didn’t look directly at Li Ang, her gaze occasionally drifting elsewhere.

"This has already been decided. My goal in forming the group was to return to the Celestial Group’s ranking."

Elaphia said, "Aren’t you considering yourself first? Your Curse—there are many High-tier Sky Knights here, and many know how to remove Negative Magic Effects. By staying here for a while, you could try their thods in turn."

"It probably won’t work. I haven’t t anyone who understands Spiritual Manipulation better than I do. The Demon’s Curse is from the Spiritual Level."

Out of her trust in Li Ang, she also believed he was telling the truth.

The young girl fell silent for a mont, and Li Ang said, "Besides, getting our team to beco a Celestial Group was originally for myself. Only reaching that level qualifies one to take charge of a developntal area."

"Do you want to establish a nation? Or control power?"

"One reason is to prove myself; you can understand this as a man’s competitive spirit. If there’s absolutely no hope, it’s one thing, but if there’s a chance of success, I feel it would be too painful not to give it a try. In the past, I wanted to stand at that position, and now I want to return just to give myself an explanation, proving that I didn’t reach it by following The Soul Apex."

"The other reason is more pragmatic, just not wanting to be constrained by others."

Li Ang briefly recalled things from a previous life and the past; indeed, even with Transcendent Power in this world, freedom and ease are not readily attainable.

"In Nebis, it’s not easy to make a living anywhere. To live well, you must beco stronger, but when you want to accomplish things, you encounter more obstacles. Only at the Celestial Group level does it seem there’s a breathing room where clouds disperse.

"In short, because there’s not much one can do alone, they don’t offer you much respect. Having the na of a Celestial Group makes many things easier to handle, and it avoids having to find another angle to achieve a purpose; whatever one wants to do can be addressed openly and directly. I hope everything I do can be like this."

"You’re talking about the bank matter, right? Are you complaining about ?"

The petite girl crossed her arms, her head slightly bowed: "I helped you through official channels, which also blocked your way to deal with them. These days you’ve been uncomfortable, but since our last eting, I’ve been telling you not to seek revenge on others. I was lacking in empathy. Your grievances against

are understandable. I just hope you don’t get into more trouble. The forces of The Soul Apex and the Holy Capital Bank are substantial."

Li Ang said, "Your thinking is not wrong. You benefit from the Guild’s order, so you also have to uphold its rules. Unless you’re strong enough to stand at the apex of the sky, it’s impossible to transcend its rules. Being too reckless, on the contrary, could land you in trouble."

He smiled gently at Elaphia, "As for the bank, it’s not over yet."

Li Ang recalled the events of the day, slowly connecting the dots.

He sighed, "Originally, I didn’t intend to co back to the Holy City. I went to the Flashing Field primarily to collect Earth Attribute Equipnt for chopping trees on ngze Island, but after encountering a Demon, I was called back by the Knight Resolution Council."

"As for my curse, let’s see what tomorrow’s eting says? Maybe the Speaker knows sothing? Let’s see tomorrow."

"If I can fight for benefits for you, I will do my utmost," Elaphia said.

...

The night passed, and the next morning, Li Ang brought his team mbers to the Central District of the Holy City.

Not only was he attending the eting, but the young girls, who had encountered the Demon, also needed to participate. Mort was waiting not far away, nodding in acknowledgnt upon seeing Li Ang’s group approach.

Originally, Farina was also supposed to attend the eting, but in the eyes of the Dragon Witch, searching for the Six Dragons was a more crucial matter, so she had not co to the Holy City at this ti.

From a distance, the Council Tower seed majestic, and upon reaching it, it dominated the entire view. Zoe had to tilt her head back until it was sore to see the light at the top, constantly exclaiming in admiration.

Elaphia led the group once she arrived. They all entered the Council Tower together.

Upon entering, they saw the solemn guards, with Order Knights wearing Silver Armor, maintaining a serious deanor, ensuring the dignity of the highest authority.

In the center of the tower’s ground floor hall stood a disc-shaped elevator with elegant handrails. After verifying Douding’s authorization, it swiftly started up under the envelope of Magic Power, lifting the group directly towards the cloud-composed council hall.

The young girls exclaid in wonder; this elevator was even more thrilling than the Gate of Brilliance.

It was also Li Ang’s first visit; typically, the Knight Resolution Council etings did not include outsiders.

After a rapid ascent, the group arrived in a room with windows overlooking the white clouds outside.

Here, several golden suspension stairs stretched upwards, leading directly to the open council hall. Just looking at them, one felt like stepping directly into the clouds.

In reality, stepping in ant not only entering the clouds but also reaching the pinnacle of world authority.

Before the suspension stairs gathered so people, judging by their attire, they seed to be of high status, though their loud conversations suggested they didn’t quite belong here.

Li Ang furrowed his brow upon seeing mbers of The Soul Apex—not Rams, but a person fiercely loyal to him.

Actually, this person wasn’t the problem; Li Ang had ntally prepared to encounter mbers of The Soul Apex upon coming to the Holy City. But he hadn’t expected this person to be here, although seeing the man beside him made everything make sense.

Dressed in a luxurious long robe, maintaining a deliberately elegant deanor during conversation, Li Ang could see his na from the panel—Yosain Cha’Ain.
