“Confirm fusion,” Gu Changsheng said quietly.
BOOOOOOM—HUMMMMMMM!
Five hundred billion Dad Points—the accumulated gratitude and domestic warmth of tens of billions of protected citizens across sixty worlds—poured into [Dad’s Care-Package Upgrade Box] in a single, breathtaking cascade of golden starlight!
Right as the golden fusion light flared, however, the Ten-Thousand-Year Frost Pillar behind Empress Luo Qingxue reacted violently!
Although the four Frost-Pillar Executioners had been flattened. Moreover, The floor runes shattered, the ancient core of the Frost Pillar itself was still hardwired to the sector-wide judicial law of the Heavenly Script Pavilion. Sensing a mortal-defying force of pure family warmth gathering within three feet of its prisoner, the thirty-foot spire of cursed blue star-ice let out a shrill, ear-splitting shriek!
SKREEEEEE—CRACKLE!
Ten thousand pitch-black Script Suppression Runes erupted across the surface of the Frost Pillar like swarming black scorpions!
The temperature around the top of the pillar plummeted past minus five hundred degrees as the pillar forcefully accelerated its hourly Soul-Erosion & Nightmare Cycle. Trying to flood Empress Luo Qingxue’s sealed mind with one final, lethal wave of despair before Gu Changsheng’s fusion could finish!
