Chapter 192: World Barriers, Multiple Universes!

"Eh? Is it really possible?" Chelsea asked, her face full of surprise.

"Of course!" Li An nodded.

In an instant, everyone looked at Chelsea with envy.

At this moment, Barbara hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My Lord, my disciple Miyoko also admires you greatly; I beg you to take her in as well!"

Miyoko was the disciple she had cultivated with her entire life, and their bond was like that of a mother and daughter.

Barbara was not afraid of death, but she wanted Miyoko to live.

To be able to stay by the side of a deity was absolutely a great fortune.

"Master!" The taciturn Miyoko was also moved; she never expected that even at this moment, her Master was still thinking of her.

"Miyoko, kneel and beg My Lord to take you in!" Barbara immediately spoke to Miyoko with a serious tone.

Miyoko dared not defy her Master and immediately knelt before Li An.

Li An did not agree immediately; after a moment of silence, he asked Barbara, "Is she very important to you?"

Barbara was stunned, then immediately knelt and said, "Yes, Miyoko is my disciple, but I view her as my own daughter!"

"Very good, your sincerity has moved me; I agree to take her in!" Li An nodded and said.

Barbara immediately showed a look of joy.

At this moment, Li An's gaze turned to Merod and Esdeath.

"Your turn: will you pledge loyalty to me, or be executed?" Li An, tired of wasting words, gave them two choices directly.

Esdeath spoke first: "If you want me to pledge loyalty to you, you must let me witness the power of a deity and let me know the gap between me and a deity!"

Merod, however, smiled and said, "A wise man knows what is feasible; I, Merod, from this moment on, pledge my loyalty to the respected Deity!"

As she spoke, she immediately knelt on one knee, her face showing a sincere expression.

Li An nodded and said, "My Holy Knight Order does not need the old, the weak, men, or the disabled; since you pledge loyalty to me, in consideration of your face, I will not act against Barbara and Daniel; let the two of them live as ordinary people from now on. As for you, as well as Miyoko, Chelsea, Gilbert, and Cassandra, you will all join the Holy Knight Order from now on!"

"Thank you, My Lord!" All members of the Auberg Assassination Society thanked him in unison.

Immediately, Li An had two Winged Ones take them out of the temple to report to Najeta.

After everyone had left, Li An stood up, walked over to Esdeath, and said, "Since you want to see the power of a deity, I will satisfy you!"

Having finished speaking, he casually waved his hand, and the handcuffs and leg irons on Esdeath were all unlocked.

With another wave of his hand, Li An teleported away with the three women: Raphael, Shalghir, and Esdeath.

When they appeared again, they had arrived at the edge of the universe of the Crimson World.

Because of Li An's protection, Esdeath, a mortal, could breathe normally in space.

Looking at the dark universe, she asked somewhat blankly, "Where is this?"

"This is the universe; every star you see there is about the same size as the world you come from," Li An said, pointing to a cluster of galaxies.

Esdeath was completely dumbfounded.

The cluster of galaxies contained countless stars; if every star was about the same size as her world, how vast would this universe be?

For she had already seen countless such clusters in the dark universe.

Before Esdeath could come to her senses, Li An continued, "If we compare the universe to a bubble, then our current position is at the edge of the bubble, and the barrier before us is the bubble's barrier, also called the Universe Barrier, the Dimension Barrier, or the Plane Barrier! As long as the barrier is broken, one can walk out of the native universe and see other universe worlds!"

While speaking, Li An drew a dead star from a distant cluster of galaxies and, using the Authority of the Sword of Beginning and End, refined it into a Sword of World Creation!

With the support of the Authority, Li An merely made a light slash against the barrier.

That invincible Universe Barrier, which could not be broken without single-universe-level power, was easily sliced open.

Li An led the three women out, and the opening in the Universe Barrier instantly restored itself.

Seeing this, Esdeath asked in surprise, "Can we still go back?"

"Since the Master can break the Universe Barrier, of course we can go back!" Raphael said, somewhat displeased.

It was as if Esdeath's question was an insult to her Master.

Li An waved his hand, indicating he did not mind.

He said to the women, "This is the hyperspace outside the universe; do you see these bubbles? Each bubble represents a universe!"

Only then did the women take a look at the environment before them.

Upon seeing it, they all opened their mouths in astonishment.

It was too beautiful!

An boundless hyperspace with no up, down, left, right, east, west, north, or south; bubbles like liquid mercury floated here like snowflakes.

Some bubbles of the multiple-universe were connected, looking like a bunch of grapes.

At this moment, let alone Esdeath, a mortal, even Raphael and Shalghir, the Winged Ones who were god-slaying artifacts, were stunned.

Li An closed his eyes and sensed the surroundings.
