When Yang Cheng stepped forward, Sauron and the rest were all confused. They knew very well that if Yang Cheng wanted to snatch the sword, he wouldn't need to send anyone else. However, these people had followed Yang Cheng for many years, and they knew that Yang Cheng didn't like to be questioned, so they didn't say anything.
Abbess Yun Miao didn't understand why Yang Cheng would help the Covenant of Darkness against the Vatican. However, she was alone, and the interests of these organizations didn't matter much, so she couldn't be bothered to ask.
Sargeras, who had closed his eyes to accept his unexpected failure, couldn't help but open them again when he heard Yang Cheng's reply. He turned his head with much difficulty and looked at Yang Cheng, his deep eyes filled with confusion.
Lilith, on the other hand, was trembling all over. It wasn't because she was crying or afraid, but because … she was too excited!
Originally, she had no choice but to ask for help. She didn't think that this smiling Nether King would really be a soft-hearted person. However, she didn't expect that her final desperate move would actually succeed!
Thank you … Lilith couldn't say anything else other than using her gaze to express the simplest of emotions.
Yang Cheng couldn't stand the female Blood Clan member's pitiful gaze. It was like a rose with thorns had turned into a delicate lily in an instant. The contrast was too great.
Yang Cheng chose to ignore the father and daughter duo. Actually, the reason he stepped forward was not only because he was friends with Lilith and felt pity for her, but also because the other party was the Vatican, which gave Yang Cheng a lot of ideas.
After all, the Vatican had tried to ally with other organizations to kill him in Japan. This wasn't a vengeance that needed to be avenged, but if the other party didn't know what was good for them, he might as well do them a favor and get rid of them.
When Bishop Cruyff heard Lilith call Yang Cheng "Pluto", he stopped in his tracks and stared at Yang Cheng. It was only when Yang Cheng stood in front of the father and daughter duo that he asked, "Are you really the Pluto, the new Hades?"
Yang Cheng didn't reply immediately. Instead, he squatted down, held Sargeras's wrist with one hand, and channeled a strand of Innate true qi into it.
Sargeras had never felt the vigorous vital energy of the Endless Resolve Restoration Scripture before. He only felt the pain in his chest being immediately suppressed by this energy and not continuing to spread. He couldn't help but be shocked.
This young Lord actually had this kind of ability hidden within him!?
Standing behind Cruyff, the leader of the Crusaders, Gabriel, had seen Yang Cheng in Zhonghai before. Previously, because Yang Cheng was keeping a low profile, he did not notice. Now that he saw him, his expression changed. He walked up to Cruyff and confirmed Yang Cheng's identity.
Once Yang Cheng's identity was confirmed, not only did the people from the Vatican change their expressions, but the other members of the organizations around the venue also had different expressions.
The people from TakamagaGahara and the Sword in the Stone were all aware of Yang Cheng's background, so they weren't too surprised. On the other hand, people like Nurarihyon and Prince who held grudges against Yang Cheng looked extremely cold. However, the representatives of the Jaguar, Blue Storm, the Soviet Medal, and other organizations and mercenaries from various countries revealed a variety of expressions of fear, shock, and fanaticism.
After all, Yang Cheng hadn't been active in the world for more than two years. This first god-slayer since ancient times had retreated bravely in the face of adversity. There were too many mysterious and shocking battle records!
The hundred-year-old Cruyff didn't make much of a move. He was only annoyed that Yang Cheng ignored him. Now that he heard Gabriel's confirmation, he couldn't help but sneer. "I didn't expect that the first god-slayer to become a god two years ago would be such a young man."
Yang Cheng stood up and glanced at Cruyff. "Let's go. I'll let Sargeras and Lilith leave safely. Don't waste any more time here. I didn't plan to stain my hands with blood this time. "
"Hmph." Cruyff squinted his eyes and lifted his head. "Pluto, it seems like you're just an ordinary man. You think I don't know that you're just bluffing? According to the Treaty of Gods, even if you're powerful enough, we're not gods, and you don't have the right to lift the seal.
You don't have the help of divine power, but the Vatican has two Holy Warriors at the level of six-winged angels. They're using the genuine divine power of light!
Even the demigod-level Sargeras fell under my Lance of Longinus. Do you really think that we'll be afraid of you, a mere Pluto who can't lift the seal, and an ordinary human?! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the two six-winged angels behind Cruyff spread their wings again and flashed to the left and right in front of Yang Cheng, forming a pincer attack.
The wings condensed from the divine power of light emitted an immense pressure. The faint golden halo seemed to ripple a lake, stirring up strong winds and sending sand and pebbles flying. Many of the people nearby had no choice but to retreat.
Such a terrifying aura made many of them sigh … Perhaps, even the Pluto couldn't deal with the Vatican that had six-winged angels if he could lift the seal …
Cruyff's face was flushed as he looked around at the terrified gazes.
Yang Cheng didn't move an inch. He curled his lips and said, "It seems like you don't intend to listen to me."
"Listen to you? Haha, young man, don't be too full of yourself. Others call you a god, but in my eyes, you're no threat at all! "Cruyff laughed maniacally." For the sake of the merciful Lord, I don't want to hurt the innocent. If you hand over these filthy dark creatures and the ominous divine weapon, the Sword of Thanatos, to the Vatican, I won't pursue your arrogant words. "
"Oh, it seems like you're still thinking about that sword." Yang Cheng said calmly. He waved his hand behind him, and the black box that Sauron was holding flew into Yang Cheng's hand.
Yang Cheng held the tightly locked black alloy box in his hand. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he smashed the seemingly indestructible combination lock with his fist.
Opening the black box, a three-foot-long ancient silver-gray weapon that resembled a Roman sword lay quietly in the compartment inside.
Many of the people present swallowed their saliva. That was a divine weapon. Would there be any special reaction if it was opened so easily?
However, the result was disappointing for many people.
Yang Chen deftly took out the silver-grey sword that didn't seem to have any special characteristics. He swung the sword a few times without releasing the slightest bit of power.
The only part of the sword that had patterns were the runes on the body of the sword. The edge of the sword looked extremely dull, making people wonder if it could be used as a sword.
"This is the Sword of Thanatos?"
"It can't be. Why is it so ordinary? It's not even as good as my dagger."
"Maybe we don't understand its use."
Many people began to whisper among themselves. It was true that the mysteriousness of the sword had been greatly diminished.
However, those who were truly knowledgeable wouldn't be too surprised.
Divine weapons were not like sacred or demonic weapons that exuded power. The Lance of Longinus in Cruyff's hand and the Butcher's Knife in Lilith's hand were dazzling and majestic. One look and anyone could tell that they were divine weapons.
However, divine weapons were much more low-key and reserved. Just like the Spear of the War God in Ares's hand, the seemingly ordinary bronze spear could lock space with astonishing power when used by Ares!
It was just like how a true expert would hide all of his power in a way that ordinary people could not pry into. Divine weapons were not something that ordinary people could understand.
At this moment, it wasn't just Cruyff and the others who were staring at the Sword of Thanatos in Yang Cheng's hand. Nurarihyon from Takamagahara, Lola, Prince, and the others from the Sword in the Stone were also staring at it with burning gazes.
Others could not feel it, but they could acutely sense that this ordinary-looking sword could make them feel an oppressive feeling of death. This feeling was not something that an ordinary weapon could give off!
Yang Cheng chuckled and casually put the sword back into the box. He closed the box and said, "It seems that you all want this sword very much. In fact, I have no interest in this sword. I have always liked to fight with my hands. I don't have any interest in weapons. But since this is something that the Vatican wants very much, I'll take it. "
"You will regret your choice, young man," Cruyff said angrily.
"I made my choice because you made me uncomfortable," Yang Cheng replied calmly and threw the black box behind him.
Sauron caught the black box. Thinking that Yang Cheng had given him such an enviable divine weapon, he could not help but smile bitterly. However, he did not dare say that he would not take it.
"Good, good, good!"
Cruyff said three times in a row. His face was flushed and his eyes were ferocious. He raised his voice and laughed, "Since you have chosen to go against us, I will not persuade you any further. I know that the plot in Japan did not manage to kill you. But do you really think that the Vatican can't do anything to you?!
You are a god, but without Divine Power, you are just a human. I will let you have a taste of the power of a six-winged angel. I want to see how you can survive without Divine Power!
I don't want to waste any more time. I will let you see the true power of a six-winged angel. I, Cruyff, do not mind slaying a god! "
As Cruyff finished speaking, he pointed the Lance of Longinus at the sky. Large amounts of light rained down once again. The Divine Power of the two six-winged angels on his left and right increased tremendously. It was as if they had transformed into two platinum-colored beams of light. Wielding a platinum-colored giant sword, they flapped their wings and flew toward Yang Cheng!
The whistling sound of the six-winged seraphim's attack even caused the surrounding space to distort and split apart. Its godly speed left everyone present in disbelief!
They had clearly not used their full strength when they were fighting Sargeras just now!
Yang Cheng was expressionless. He did not even look or react. He only took a step toward where Cruyff was standing.
