Throne of Gods: Divine thunder descends, and the Qilin descends upon the world!

Chapter 126 Electrolux's Home is Robbed by the Yellow Hair
"During my years at the Royal Magic Academy, I spent every day with Flora."

Electrox's white misty figure rippled slightly. "Every morning before the sunlight shines through the window, we are already studying magic side by side; in the stillness of the night, you can still hear us whispering about spells."

"As time went by, my heart was gradually captured by her—not only for her stunning beauty, but also for her talent that was on par with mine."

Electrox's voice softened, "We talked a lot, from magical theories to the future of the Empire, there was always something to talk about. Under the oak tree on the back hill of the academy, we made vows; in the candlelight of the library, we held hands."

"However, this burning passion did not slow down my cultivation; on the contrary, it made my magical skills advance by leaps and bounds."

"At the age of eighteen, I successfully advanced to the eighth-tier Archmage. At this rate, breaking through to the ninth tier before the age of twenty is just around the corner, and I will become the youngest ninth-tier powerhouse in the history of the Empire."

"At the celebration banquet for breaking through to the eighth rank, I implored my father to propose marriage to His Majesty."

Electrox continued, "His Majesty has also gladly agreed to my marriage with Flor, and will hold our wedding once I break through to the ninth rank."

"At that time, I was hailed as 'the mortal closest to God.' Even the Pope of the Glorious Papacy came to the Empire to take me as his disciple and impart his life's knowledge to me."

"But for the sake of Flor, and for the sake of this empire that gave me birth and nurtured me, I declined the Pope's invitation."

Electrolux's voice suddenly lowered, "Looking back now, perhaps it was this decision that changed the course of my life."

"After reaching the eighth level, my cultivation speed slowed down significantly, so I went out to train."

The white mist surged violently. "At the time, I told Flora about this, hoping to take her with me to complete this trial."

“But she rejected me.” The old man’s voice was bitter. “At the time, I just thought she was strong-willed and wanted to surpass me one day, so she decided to stay in the academy to study hard.”

Upon hearing this, Yuehui's pupils contracted slightly, already anticipating the turning point in the story.

"In order to reach the ninth rank as soon as possible, marry Flora, and for greater glory and the glory of the empire, I embarked on the path of training."

Electrolux's soul began to twist, "little did he know that this trial would become a nightmare for the rest of his life."

At this point, Electrox's face suddenly contorted into a ferocious expression, and a terrifying surge of soul energy caused the entire Tower of Eternity to tremble violently.

"After leaving the capital, I traveled across the continent and, with my eighth-level cultivation, encountered almost no difficulties."

"I spent two years traveling to every city in the three great empires, experiencing the joys and sorrows of life." The phantom images of mountains and rivers appeared in the white mist. "Both my vision and my cultivation have made great progress."

"Perhaps because I was chosen by the Goddess of Light, I had several extraordinary encounters. I also acquired an incomparably powerful cultivation technique."

“When I returned to the capital, I couldn’t wait to see Flora.” Electrox’s voice suddenly turned dangerous. “I excitedly shared with her everything I had seen and heard over the past two years.”

"But do you know what she did?"

The temperature in the entire hall plummeted.

"Is it betrayal?" Moonlight asked softly.

Electrox's soul trembled violently: "That's right, it was betrayal! It was a bright, sunny day when Flor invited me on a picnic, and I gladly accepted."

The old man's voice suddenly turned sharp: "We left the capital and came to the outskirts. Just as we were enjoying the scenery, a large number of men in black blocked all our escape routes." "At that time, I naively thought they were assassins sent by the other two great empires." Scenes of our escape from that year appeared in the white mist, "I desperately protected Flor as she broke through the encirclement, and we fled for our lives with her."

"After overcoming countless hardships, we finally broke through the encirclement." Electrox's tone grew increasingly urgent. "Just as I saw the Imperial walls, a chill suddenly ran down my back—"

The white mist instantly turned pitch black: "That's a pitch-black dagger! And the one wielding it is that bitch, Flora!"

At this point, Electrox suddenly clutched his chest, his soul twisting violently as if he were experiencing the pain of that year once again.

"Her reason for killing me is utterly ridiculous!" the old man laughed mournfully, "She even blames me for not passing on the martial arts techniques I obtained to her!"

"That technique is called the Tortoise Shell Technique, a forbidden art involving the prophecy of fate. Its most terrifying aspect is its 'absolute validity'—once activated, all living beings within its range must bear its effects."

“But the caster also pays a price,” Electrox’s voice was filled with pain. “Each time it’s like playing with one’s life; a slight misstep and the caster themselves becomes the sacrifice.”

The white mist suddenly calmed down, transforming into the appearance of a young Electrox from back then: "How could I bear to let her come into contact with such a dangerous power when I love her so much?"

“But because of that feeling,” Electrox’s voice was terribly hoarse, “she chose to kill me with her own hands.”

"That shouldn't be a reason for you to become a slumbering natural disaster, right?" Long Haochen suddenly interjected.

“Ha,” Electrox let out a shrill, cold laugh. “Yes, if it were only Flor’s betrayal, how could I have turned my back on the light? What truly plunged me into darkness was the betrayal of this entire world!”

Golden flames ignited in the old man's eyes as he was once again plunged into painful memories:

"Because my heart is on the right side, after realizing what was happening, I immediately pushed Flor away and used a teleportation scroll to escape the murder."

The scene of their frantic escape from the white mist resurfaced, "Back then, I naively believed that Flo was forced to do it."

"I secretly returned to the empire, only to find a royal proclamation at the city gate—"

Electrox's soul twisted violently, and the white mist condensed into a blood-red notice:
"Viscount Ilex of the Empire, coveting the martial arts techniques obtained by Princess Flor, ambushed and severely injured the princess, and then fled in betrayal of the country. His title is immediately revoked, and he is convicted of treason!"

"What's even more ridiculous is that the Glorious Church's announcement is exactly the same!" The old man's voice was full of sarcasm, "claiming that I have been corrupted by darkness and am a heretic who must be eliminated!"

"Only at that moment did I realize that I had fallen into a huge conspiracy. I vowed to find evidence and expose the lies they had used to deceive His Majesty and the Holy See!"

"I disguised myself and sneaked into the capital, secretly arriving at Flor's palace," Ilex's voice suddenly turned dangerous, "but there I saw the Pope's son, Perot!"

"Just seeing Perot there already gave me a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on. But I still couldn't believe it."

"Until I heard their conversation with my own ears"

Electrox's golden flames surged. "So, while I was traveling, Pero had already arrived at the Royal Magic Academy. He had a dual mission—to persuade the Emperor to let me join the Papacy, and also to pursue Flor!"

A chill ran through Yuehui, and a sudden feeling of sympathy welled up within her.

(Poor old man, his house was raided by blond-haired thugs...)
