Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 2043 - 2032: Holy Religious Nation

If you ignore that puddle of blurred flesh and the corpse on the ground, it would be much more beautiful.If there were a horror movie soundtrack playing now, it might scare someone to death.

"Put the stuff down, let's go."

Before Vivian lost her temper, Ning Fan quickly said, "These things aren't worth anything, taking them is useless."

"Really?"

Vivian's angry look disappeared, making a dragon give up its acquired wealth is akin to riding it in some ways.

"Of course it's... fake."

The crystal decorations might not be worth much, but those gilded utensils were genuine.

But Ning Fan absolutely couldn't say that, or Vivian would cling to them, causing an awkward situation.

"I never lie to you. This place is just like the hotel we stayed at before, all for decoration, not worth anything."

The same thing happened at The Venetian Hotel, if it weren't for Ning Fan's intervention, it might have become Vivian's lair.

"So it's not worth anything."

Vivian pouted, discarding the treasures she previously cherished as if they were garbage.

Her love for shiny things was undeniable, but she didn't want those cheap items.

Seeing Vivian's miserly look, Ning Fan suddenly thought, "Maybe I can find her a job guarding a vault."

With a dragon guarding the vault, it would be impregnable.

But then realizing Vivian's nature of only taking and not giving, Ning Fan regarded it as a joke.

Looking at the estate under the night sky, Ning Fan suddenly asked, "Vivian, can you release Dragon Flame now?"

"I can."

"Really, I can."

Ning Fan's eyes twitched, keeping this fact in mind.

"But my Divine Power is suppressed, so I can't release Dragon Flame."

"That's easy."

Ning Fan transformed his spirit into threads, probing Vivian's Dragon Core, gradually unlocking the seal of the Light of Life.

"Can you do it now?"

"Yes."

Vivian excitedly nodded, finally feeling the long-lost Divine Power.

"Burn this place down."

"Really?"

Vivian quickly turned around, looking at Ning Fan with radiant joy.

Robbery and arson were her favorites.

"Are you that excited? How many robberies have you done before?"

Ning Fan felt a chill in his heart but still nodded his head.

Actually, there's no need to set a fire, after all, no traces were left behind.

But the puddle of flesh was too conspicuous, anyone who saw it would be baffled.

With a mouth open, a fireball the size of a glass bead floated out, and then grew larger against the wind.

By the time it landed above the villa, it had become the size of a basketball.

The concrete villa, upon encountering Dragon Flame, was like dry wood meeting a raging fire, instantly igniting a sky-high blaze.

"Hehe..."

In the light of the flames, the girl's face was flushed, her delicate appearance incredibly beautiful.

Her bell-like laughter sounded like the sinister laughter of a devil.

"Uncontrollable wildness!"

Ning Fan shook his head, reminding himself once again that he couldn't impose any restrictions on Vivian's behavior, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

The Holy Religious Nation is a small country on the Europa Continent, home to the world's most influential and widely-believed-in religion—the Church of Light.

The Holy Religious Nation is a state founded on religion, and throughout its streets, various clergy members and pilgrims can be seen everywhere.

Upon disembarking the plane, Vivian furrowed her brows, as if someone owed her money and hadn't paid.

Noticing the violent aura emanating from Vivian, Ning Fan curiously asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's a scent of Holy Power here."

Ning Fan asked in surprise, "How do you know?"

"How could I not know? The aura here is the same as that emitted by the God King of Light, making me feel nauseated."

"God King of Light?"

"One of the patriarch gods among the ancient Divine Spirits."

When Ning Fan explained about the Church of Light, Vivian became even more furious, "I couldn't believe that despicable God King of Light secretly developed believers in the Origin World. It's absolutely disgraceful, deceiving all of us."

Ning Fan was baffled and asked, "What's going on?"

Before the Star Sea appeared, there was a channel between the Origin World and the Divine Realm.

At that time, humans and gods freely interacted; gods could even descend in their True Body, and leave their bloodline on Earth, which are today's Alien Clan.

But suddenly, one day, the Origin World gave birth to the Origin Consciousness.

Under the power of the Origin Consciousness, the human-god channel broke and transformed into today's Star Sea, separating the two worlds.

Before leaving the Origin World, the Divine Spirits agreed that no one was allowed to develop believers there.

Except for the Divine Descendant Races with Divine Spirits' bloodline, the gods completely vanished from the view of the people.

Ning Fan chuckled, "You all are really straightforward, couldn't you develop believers secretly?"

"Haha..."

Vivian looked at Ning Fan as if he were an idiot, "Do you think it's that simple? Under the suppression of the Origin World, becoming a god through belief is impossible."

"Even if you leave behind religious sects to develop believers, without the support of Divine Power, the sect will eventually fade away or exist in name only."

Ning Fan asked in confusion, "You mean the Power of Faith is ineffective."

"Of course."

"But that's not right. The priests of the Church of Light can obtain Holy Power through prayer."

"That's absolutely impossible."

Noting Vivian's determined expression, Ning Fan laughed, "Then tell me what's up with the Holy Power you felt?"

"This..."

Vivian suddenly shouted, "I know!"

"Knowing is fine, don't be so startled."

Seeing passersby looking their way, Ning Fan hurriedly pulled Vivian away.

This is the sacred site of the Church of Light, most people here are devout believers.

If Vivian spouted nonsense here, the believers' words alone could drown the two of them.

"The Holy Power you mentioned definitely comes from the Divine Power bestowed by the God King of Light."

The way Divine Spirits acquire power is by absorbing and refining the Power of Faith from believers.

But according to Vivian, the God King of Light did the exact opposite, not only failing to benefit from believers but also needing to bestow them with a significant amount of Divine Power.

"But why would he do this?"

Vivian couldn't understand.

The Divine Power bestowed by Break Boundary is already interfered with by the world's consciousness, let alone here in the Origin World, where interference is even more severe.

When the gods left the Origin World, they anticipated giving special care to the bloodline and believers of this world.

But later they discovered, due to the "exploitation" by Origin Consciousness, the Divine Power descending from the Divine Realm might not even retain one ten-thousandth of its strength.

This is why divine miracles gradually faded away, and gods completely turned into mythical legends, with even the Divine Realm almost forgetting about here.

This is what Vivian couldn't understand about the God King of Light; it seemed to be a thankless task, completely contrary to the nature of Divine Spirits.
