Chapter 84 The Ultimate Woman Fights and Slaps

Isn't that how it is?

Felicity always felt that her body was very heavy, and that she was unable to move because of the so-called relationship.

As the ruler of the empire, she naturally couldn't take the initiative to say something like overthrowing the gods.

After all, this world is a world where the monarchy is divinely ordained, and a world where gods truly exist.

Even so, when Lilith left with the words, "I'm going to resurrect Rhodes," and disappeared, Felicity's disgust for her reached its peak.

The invincible Rod died in his own room, even dying silently.

In the end, Lilith, this villain, used this excuse to disappear from everyone's sight, plunging the empire into chaos.

Isn't all of this ridiculous? At least, Felicity hates this lie.

Her lips moved slowly: "Everyone wants to bring you back to life, and the world is plunged into misery."

"Losing a hero is not a big deal, but the problem is that it happened during the period when the Dragon God fell and the Witch lost her leader."

"And the worst thing is that Lilith also ran away and disappeared without a trace."

"The people of the empire cannot even feel the blessings bestowed by the gods, and newborns cannot even receive divine seeds, all of which plunges the world into an even more panicked state."

Felicity pondered for a moment, then softly raised her eyes and spoke.

Rhodes was too tall for her, a difference of half a head, so she always had to deliberately stand up to meet his gaze, let alone kiss him—she had to stand on her tiptoes.

But when she said those words now, the impulse she wanted to express had reached its peak.

Therefore, the desire to meet Rhodes's gaze naturally grew to its peak.

"Is that so?" A hint of displeasure flashed through Rhodes' mind. To him, that was the ending he had painstakingly worked through an entire save file to reach, and yet it still ended up like that—

Rhodes remained silent for a while before continuing, "So, why did Lilith suddenly disappear?"

"So that's what you wanted to know."

Felicity understood.

An extreme coldness was revealed in her amber eyes, and the corners of her lips were slightly upturned.

From her innocent and adorable appearance to her cold and indifferent demeanor, and then to this dark and ruthless state, it didn't take her very long.

She finally understood.

Rhode didn't believe Lilith's words, and his desire to have her confirm the facts was to find out what Lilith did after she disappeared.

Although she can be a bit slow at times, she's also very perceptive in these areas.

If she guessed correctly, it must be that Lilith said something about how she made great efforts to revive Rhodes in her previous life, even giving up everything for Rhodes, right?

That's why Rhode brought Lilith along so that she could expose Lilith's lies.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still.

The morning sunlight was obscured by the drifting clouds, and the light in the entire corridor was gradually fading away.

Rhodes' eyes held a complex expression as he awaited Felicity's next words, while Lilith pursed her lips, also anticipating the revelation of the truth.

Felicity simply touched her earlobe slightly, then smiled sweetly: "Perhaps it's because it discovered that the Empire became uncontrollable without you, so it tried to become stronger and then disappeared."

Click—

Like a shattered mirror, the whole world seemed so peaceful after those words were spoken.

However, An Ning only noticed that Lilith's expression shifted from expectation to confusion, and then, after confirming what she had heard, it became frozen.

And finally, there was the gasping disbelief—

She strode up to Felicity, grabbed her collar tightly, and cried out in a trembling voice, "Felicity—! What are you saying?"

"What are you saying? Isn't it the truth?" Felicity laughed.

"What are you talking about? I disappeared from everyone's sight to revive Rhodes! I told you that, I said it—!"

"Is that so?" Felicity completely ignored Lilith's threat, simply smiling. "But no one believes you, Lady Lilith."

With a sudden turn, Felicity shook off Lilith's grasp, and her eyes turned icy cold.

Felicity stretched out her arms and stepped half a step to the side, shielding Rhodes like a mother protecting her child: "I won't let you hurt Rhodes again. You only left because you realized you couldn't properly be a god of the empire without him after he killed you, right?"

"They're just afraid your reputation has plummeted to its lowest point, and they want to use all this to cover up the truth."

Snapped-!

Before she could finish speaking, Felicity was slapped across the face.

A burning sensation appeared on her right cheek, leaving Felicity frozen in place.

Yes.

Even though Lilith had controlled her strength well, and even though she had slapped him elegantly, the fact remains that she had slapped him.

Lilith had never looked so anxious.

After all, she had hardly ever been wronged in her life, and when the real injustice finally fell on her—everything seemed so foolish.

There was none of the shrewishness and ruthlessness of a shrew, only the desperation and grievance of a young girl wrongly accused. With a hint of tears in her eyes, she roared, "You think I killed Rod? I had no motive whatsoever, you know that perfectly well!"

"Don't you know whether it's fake or not?!" Felicity, under the stinging pain, had broken down and gritted her teeth, reaching out to retaliate. Unfortunately, Lilith, having been promoted four times, made it impossible for her to land a slap easily.

Therefore, her arm swung out, but it missed without a doubt. Even so, Felicity was not prepared to stop, nor did she have any reason to suffer in silence. She reached directly at Lilith's hair and grabbed her blue hair tightly.

"Damn it!" Felicity's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Even though she knew she couldn't beat Lilith, she still wanted to vent her resentment.

It wasn't resentment over being slapped, but resentment over Rod's death.

"Let me go!" Lilith felt the stinging pain of her hair being pulled, which made her even more upset.

In almost two short seconds, the two were about to throw punches at each other, but in that instant, a voice shouted, "Stop it, both of you!"

Rod reached out and pulled Felicity into his arms from behind, then turned around to separate the two of them.

His eyes were utterly calm as he continued, "Both of you are wrong, so stop fighting."
