Chapter 231: Destruction

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

An endless aura of nirvanic extermination emerged from Wei Huo’s fingertips. The aura of nirvanic extermination instantly shrouded the torn pieces of paper.

However, the indestructible aura of nirvanic extermination met its match at that moment. These pieces of paper were torn from Rule creations after all. They were protected by the Rule Power, so even though they had been torn off, they still carried Rule Power.

However, the pieces of paper still kept gradually disappearing. It was not because Wei Huo was strong enough to destroy nomological creations, but because the notebook itself contained the rules of ‘Death’ and ‘Infinity’. The path that Wei Huo was taking happened to lead to death.

If the Nirvana Domain was upgraded by one level, it would be the Rule of Death. Their attributes were similar, so Wei Huo could use the Nirvana Aura to trigger the Rule of Death in the paper and destroy it.

When the old man saw this, he sighed. He understood everything without asking.

The young man in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person. He easily had torn off the indestructible notebook and burned it with black flames. The laws and names written in the book were also disappearing. He could not provoke someone who could do that. Besides, the old man understood what Wei Huo wanted to do.

However, at that moment, the old man suddenly felt relieved. His fatigue disappeared, and so did all his worries. He stood up and walked out of the giant stone array.

The officials outside the door had yet to leave. At that moment, they saw the old man walk out. Everyone was shocked.

They all stepped forward and waited. When the old man walked out of the stone array, the officials asked respectfully, “Sir, what do you need?”

The old man waved his hand. “I want to go out for a walk.”

Everyone was shocked. They could not react in time. What was wrong with this trembling old man today? Why had he suddenly decided to go out for a walk? How long was he going out for? What about registering the names?

The old man subconsciously said, “Follow me.”

This was something the old man said without thinking it through. The old man only realized that he subconsciously did not want anyone to stay there. The Codex had been stolen, and the laws had changed. If someone was not afraid of death and barged into the stone array, they would realize that all laws had lost their binding power. The city would definitely be in chaos. Although it was only a matter of time, the old man subconsciously did not want this to happen ahead of time.

The officials and guards immediately followed the old man. An official walked forward and supported him. The old man waved his hand, indicating that he wanted to leave.

The people behind him were terrified. They did not understand what was going on.

The old man said as he moved forward, “It seems like I can’t write anything else in my life.”

The moment the old man said that, everyone was shocked. Could the registrar not want to continue working?

The officials looked at each other. They could see deep fear and wariness in each other’s eyes. If the old man quit and chose an heir, it was highly possible that he would choose one of them.

Selecting an heir was a big deal. They could not be careless. They had to know this person well. Based on their performance over the years, everyone was trembling in fear and treading on thin ice. They were extremely loyal and decisive when it came to matters of this city. That was why they would be the best successors!

The old man did not know what the people behind him were thinking. He walked forward slowly and exited the temple that no ordinary person could enter. An official immediately called, and more guards appeared. Half of them joined the ranks of the old man to protect him, while the other half surrounded the temple to prevent suspicious people from entering.

They did not know the secret of the giant stone array, but they knew very well that three children who had not been registered 18 years ago had gone missing. It would have been fine if the three children had died, but if they had not, so they posed a huge threat!

However, these people were worried for no reason. The city’s fate had changed because of a single mistake. In other words, the city’s fate had already been decided. Wei Huo’s arrival meant that the city was destined to be destroyed.

The old man said, “I want to visit the children at the hospital.”

The old man left with a large group of people. Wei Huo continued refining the notebook in the giant stone array. Half of the pages he had torn off had been burned. Once all of them were burned, the laws controlling the city would no longer exist.

Then, Wei Huo would take away the notebook with the ‘Death’ and ‘Infinity’ Rules. However, Wei Huo was not qualified to understand the Death Rules for now. He had yet to fully understand his own Nirvana Domain. Only when he reached the peak of the Legendary stage and perfected his Nirvana Domain could he further understand the Death Rules.

At that moment, the short-haired girl, Xiao Qian, appeared silently in the house. Her appearance implied that the rules no longer punished people who violated the superficial law.

Wei Huo took out the mechanical core and told Xiao Qian, “Hand the mechanical core to Golden Armor and have it create a robot. However, make sure that it is a guide, not a hindrance. There will only be new life after death and destruction. At the same time, it will rescue people who are still law-abiding under such circumstances.”

Wei Huo knew very well that if he erased everything in the notebook and took it for his own use, the laws governing the city would instantly lose their binding effect. The people who had been suppressed by the law for countless years would definitely go crazy in order to release pressure at that moment. It would not be weird if they did anything.

However, even under these circumstances, there would still be kind-hearted people. These people would control their desires and would not be willing to hurt others. If such people were alive, the city would be reborn from its ashes and walk toward a new life.

Xiao Qian hugged the mechanical core and disappeared. She found the golden armor and handed it to it, but she then disappeared without saying anything.

The golden armor was confused. “What does this mean? Why did you give this treasure to me?”

Moments later, Wei Huo’s voice came from the mechanical core. Of course, Wei Huo knew that Xiao Qian could not speak at the moment, so he had recorded his words in advance and played them to tell the golden armor what to do.

The golden armor scratched its head. “F*ck, I thought they were going to split the equipment and leave.”

Upon hearing the recording, the golden armor immediately followed Wei Huo’s orders and went to find the material-manufacturing robot. At that moment, the first person in the city who had not died after having 100 points deducted appeared. At the same time, many people realized that they would not have points deducted even if they violated the law.

The person who was supposed to be executed by the Rule Power laughed out loud. “I’m not dead. Ha ha, I’m not dead! The Codex Revised Edition has failed.”

The desire in his heart started to grow. He looked at the people around him and shouted, “The law has failed! We are no longer bound. We can do whatever we want. My fellow men, what are you waiting for?”

A man echoed his words loudly. “That’s right. What are we waiting for? Divorce! I want to get a divorce now!”

The others were confused.

Everyone was speechless. Where had this weirdo come from?

However, someone said worriedly, “Could this be temporary? If we do something that we shouldn’t do, although our points will not be deducted for the time being, will we die immediately when this is over?”

That person’s words made sense. The others fell silent, but the person who was supposed to be executed sneered. “My points were deducted long ago. There’s no need to worry about debt. From now on, I’ll do whatever I want!”
