Celestial Overlord - Chapter 51 Who are you?
As they all looked above, in the mid-air, a lonely figure covered with golden armor was floating. The evening sunshine reflected on the being’s armor giving it a holy aura.
Everyone present there was not able to control their body as they all kowtowed before the holy figure. The being was looking down on the masses. A god! No! A war god was hovering in mid-air!
Looking at this, the City Lord eyes went wide because he was so scared. “Why would such being wanted my head?” He was not able to make sense of the words the being spoke. He was after all a small city’s Lord. Why would a being like this need his head?. His bulky body shook in fear.
While the crowd was dazed, the golden being descended down. Everyone felt their heart go cold in fear especially the City Lord. Seeing that being was walking towards him, he felt as if he was looking at an unimaginable horror.
Sweat was rolling down, drenching his clothes. His eyes had a terrified look. Each step of that being frightened him. He wanted to run away, but his legs already gave up. He wanted to shout for help, but words were not coming out of his mouth.
The golden being was covered with armor from head to heels. The armor the being wore was inscribed with various ruins which he had never seen in the mortal realm. Though he was a Monarch realm expert, he felt like an ant before this being.
The aura and pressure was something, he has never seen in the mortal realm. Just one thought stuck in his mind, an immortal!, the being is an immortal..!. Why would an upper realm being be here and why would such being wanted his head? He was confused as fear crept over his heart.
But the being which was walking towards him halted in front of the father and daughter pair. The little girl was still crying looking at her dying father. No one in the crowd was able to tell what the being was thinking nor were they able to look at the reaction on the being’s face as it was covered with armor.
The being kneeled down beside the crying girl, as it touched her head. Seeing that the being who stopped the City Lord was beside her. The girl felt a kind of warm feeling. The head armor of the being disappeared showing a face of a maiden.
‘Beautiful’ was not the word to describe her face. She looked like a goddess with a pure face with green eyes, smiling at the little one.
Looking at her as the little girl asked in a shaking voice ” Big sister! Ca..can you help my father? I will do anything you ask for, you can take me as a slave, I can do every work… Please save my father”.
.”My mother died because of me, she starved herself to death just so I could eat a little more, now I am going to lose my father too, If only I was dead, father and mother would have been happy,” she said while sobbing as tears continued to flow. “All I can do is cry, after all i am just weak “. Even the crowd felt sad hearing such words from a kid. To think she went through such a thing to make her feel like this at a young age.
But a calm voice broke the depressing mood as they all heard a heavenly female voice “Tears shed for self is a weakness, but tears shed for others is a sign of strength”. ” You are not weak young one, live a happy life hereafter” while saying, she touched the dying father of the girl. His body radiated a golden glow as the light blinded everyone.
The man who was waiting for his death, the man who was beaten badly without any recovery. Opened his eyes only to feel the pain which was there was gone. The crowd was dumbfounded. Even the City Lord was shocked because he knew even the immortal have to use special pills for recovery. To think just a touch was enough to heal the person in his deathbed.
As he thought of the thing which was a legend in the mortal world. “A person from the God’s realm” even the thought of it made his heart stop. To think a goddess from the legendary realm is here.
I am dead. I am sure of it. The bulky looking City Lord looked as if he aged. The little girl who was sobbing looked at the miracle that happened in front of her eyes. Looking at her father who was normal again, she hugged him as she cried. Both the father and daughter kowtowed as they thanked the goddess in front of them.
Looking at them, Cheng nodded as she thought, this is what young master would have done if he was here. Then she looked at the City Lord who was crawling on the ground. The warm looking face turned cold as the golden armors once again covered her beautiful face.
The next moment, the guards surrounding the City Lord started shaking as their bodies blasted into pieces. Seeing the gory scene in front of him, the City Lord was totally shaken. Before he knew, the goddess was in front of him.
As a golden sword materialized in her hands. Even though he was shaken, he mustered his courage just to ask a single word “Why?”. ” Ask your foolish son in the afterlife!” the reply made him tremble. To think his own son was the reason for his downfall. He regretted. But the next moment his severed head rolled down on the ground. While is headless body tumbled down.
The people who were kneeling and kowtowing were truly terrified. The being really looked like a war goddess now.
Cheng took the severed head as she disappeared from the place. The people felt all this was like a dream. Nothing was making sense for them. Just as they were thinking, they heard the voice once again.
“The corrupted shall be judged, the innocent will not be harmed anymore” the voice disappeared as it startled everyone.

In the boarder of the Taing forest, a group of seven men were kneeling as they all were gasping from fear. Because in front of them stood a Demigod realm oldman and a demigod realm Beast but what scared them the most was the young man who they thought as mortal.
They did not even know how to describe the aura he had, he was like an unimaginable existence sending shivers. To think they thought of stealing women from this person, how foolish they were. Just when they all were regretting offending this group. A void appeared as the golden armored being stepped out.
Their fearful eyes landed on the thing which the being was carrying. It was a person’s head, fresh blood was still dripping from it. It can’t be they all swallowed their saliva as they thought of the young man’s command . But their true horror came to reality, as that being thrown the head towards the group.
The person’s eyes were wide open in fear, as if he wanted to beg for mercy. Chen Len was immediately able to recognize it. It was his father. He never really thought that things would happen like this.
Just as he was regretting he heard the young man’s cold voice again. “Say now, who are you again?”
