Chapter 154 Today's Dirty Light Man
Chapter 202: Today's Corrupted Light Person
The illusion before them suddenly 'pixelated' for a moment, then showed Roy kneeling before the Sun God statue, praying for help and salvation.
The 'Sun' responded to him, bestowing—no, tempting him to deeply develop his dark powers.
Ultimately, everyone in the church fell before Roy's sword.
The entity disguised as the Sun took advantage of Roy's unsettled mind, attempting to seize his body and plunder everything he possessed.
The illusion ended there, whether because Roy was unwilling to continue, or due to the influence of the pseudo-yang, or perhaps both.
Roy's hunched figure knelt before the shattered Sun God statue, silent.
"Oh, God of the Sun, please tell me, was my act of revenge against my companions right or wrong?"
The aura of decay around Roy grew thicker, and a dim, profound darkness gradually enveloped him; even the light emanating from Mu Yang could not dispel that darkness.
A thick, black liquid inexplicably seeped from within his armor, whether blood or something else, was unknown.
Mu Yang pondered for a moment, then spoke what he believed to be the correct answer.
"You did the right thing. When faced with bullies, one should always retaliate, an eye for an eye, not endure everything."
"But isn't the Sun selfless? As His follower, shouldn't I forgive everyone's transgressions?
Everything I experienced might have been a trial given by the Sun, but I failed to withstand it, was dragged into the abyss by darkness, and that's why I became this way."
Roy's voice became much more agitated. He didn't regret killing those who bullied him; he only hated himself for failing the trial and not becoming an Apostle of the Sun.
He had always believed that the prerequisite for becoming an Apostle of the Sun was to be selfless like the Sun, illuminating all people. His act of revenge against other believers became the retribution for his current fallen state.
He had lingered in this lightless rift for many years in a daze. The pseudo-yang tried to devour him but never succeeded, instead suppressing his remnant soul deep within.
Today, Roy met Mu Yang, whose pure light awakened his remnant soul, making him mistakenly believe Mu Yang was an envoy sent by the Sun to investigate the situation.
Thus, he chose to 'presumptuously' ask these questions, which he should have figured out himself, hoping to find answers.
"Why interpret it that way? The Sun is the Sun, and you are you. The two are completely different entities."
Mu Yang shook his head. Roy was clearly brainwashed by the entity disguised as the Sun. While the Sun is selfless, that's because He is powerful and has no other concerns.
But can weak people survive if they are completely selfless?
Evidently, it's impossible. The inherent flaws of human nature would completely consume such a person, unless everyone in that world had no selfish desires, but how could utopia be so simple?
Human greed escalates gradually: first, they want enough food; then, warm clothes; next, good things to use;
And then, extravagant entertainment—
As long as any one of these cannot be satisfied, complete selflessness cannot appear.
"But—"
"There are no 'buts.' The Sun never regarded those who bullied you as believers."
"—Then that's good."
Having said this, Roy fell silent, as if relieved.
The next second, his hunched body suddenly stiffened, and the brief moment of peace he had left was engulfed by a greedy malice.
Darkness, viscous and alive, surged from him. His shriveled body rapidly swelled under the influence of an unknown power, and a bone-grinding sound of bones writhing emanated from beneath his decaying armor.
"Thanks to you, my Apostle."
"Roy" stood up from the ground, his hunched body becoming erect. The broom in his hand, covered in the dust of ages,
transformed into a decaying longsword reflecting black flowing light.
His voice was no longer gentle, becoming hoarse and deep, with a threatening roar like that of a beast.

After reconnaissance, Mu Yang discovered that this entity, disguised as the Sun and stealing faith, seemed to have also pirated another deity—a god named Sun's Shadow.
"My Apostle, why do you not step forward and pay homage to this God?"
As the pseudo-yang's words fell, the gloom in the church, which had been suppressed by the light and unable to move, suddenly rekindled, finally standing in opposition to the light.
Half of the church was brightly illuminated by light, while the other half was shrouded in deep darkness, like the dividing line between heaven and hell.
A low, cold laugh echoed through the church. The next second, the pseudo-yang transformed into a black shadow, merging into the darkness and disappearing without a trace.
It ran away?
No, devouring Mu Yang was also part of its plan.
Those Contractors with the Sun's aura were all sacrifices it attracted.
The Sun's Shadow means that as vast as the Sun is, so vast is its shadow.
Therefore, the pseudo-yang, attempting to embody the Sun's Shadow, possesses the ability to devour the Sun's aura to enhance itself.
And Mu Yang, with his pure light maximized, held an irresistible allure in its eyes, so it naturally wouldn't let him go.
Gazing at the surrounding darkness, Mu Yang took a deep breath, his pale golden eyes, as brilliant as the scorching sun, slowly locked onto the black figure moving through the darkness.
Seeing that Mu Yang could precisely pinpoint it, the pseudo-yang was not surprised, only revealing a twisted, grotesque smile, then splitting into two black shadows that lunged at Mu Yang.
The suppressive energy erupted, and the pressure, as if solidified, hindered the shadows' movements, their speed visibly dropping sharply.
The air warped under the pressure, the dilapidated church groaned, and the walls and stone pillars cracked, but ultimately did not collapse, supported by both light and darkness.
