God Rank Upgrade System Chapter 1479-END - 1479 Hope Everyone Finds Happiness! (The final )
Previously on God Rank Upgrade System...
Bai Litao stood at the pinnacle of Sky City's Sacred Region Academy at that moment. The view unfolding before him filled his gaze with profound astonishment.
It's Lin Xiu. Have you returned?
Right then, Bai Litao glanced down at his palms. Just moments ago, he had distinctly sensed his own death.
What a strange sensation...
“Phew, it's all finished now.”
Lin Xiu murmured to himself in that instant.
The glow enveloping his form started fading away gradually.
Ever since arriving in this realm, he'd battled endlessly for ages, and exhaustion truly weighed on him now.
Luo Yue sensed something in that moment and promptly told Pang Tong nearby, “Take me back to Earth.”
Pang Tong froze briefly, then gave a nod.
The next instant saw Luo Yue's silhouette vanish swiftly.
By now, the radiance shrouding Lin Xiu had fully dissipated.
A sudden wave of drowsiness washed over Lin Xiu.
He gradually shut his eyes.
His frame began drifting downward.
Yet right at that juncture, Luo Yue darted forward and caught Lin Xiu in her embrace.
“Feeling a bit weary.”
Gazing at Luo Yue's face so close before him, Lin Xiu grinned and spoke.
“Rest for a while.”
Luo Yue's tone softened noticeably.
“Mm.”
Staring at Luo Yue's visage, Lin Xiu felt as if time looped back to their first encounter.
“Luo Yue.”
“Hm?”
“Let's tie the knot.”
Lin Xiu beamed.
In that instant, a blush tinted Luo Yue's cheeks.
“Um…”
January 1st.
God Warrior Realm, Lingxian City!
Lingxian City brimmed with festive decorations—lanterns, banners, and joyous beams everywhere.
Revelry filled every corner.
Long tables stretched before the Lord's Mansion, laden with exotic delicacies.
Even the beverages were precious Water of Life.
“Time flies—who can say how many years have slipped by.”
“Lin Xiu and Luo Yue have at last found their blissful conclusion.”
Bai Litao remarked with a grin right then.
“Hahaha, back in the day, I clashed with an actual god!”
Ouyang Hang bantered with the Sacred Region Academy folks over drinks, chuckling heartily.
These spirits packed a punch.
Ouyang Hang's head swam after a few sips.
“The moment has arrived at last.”
An Qi and Qian Lin buzzed with thrill in that moment.
“Hahaha, with Brother Lin wed, when will you two follow suit?”
Liu Pan eyed them teasingly.
“Why not pick me...?”
“Scram!”
They shot him fierce glares.
Wang Qiang and Planet Namir's crew wore faces alight with delight too.
God Warrior Realm!
“Master's prowess is unmatched...”
Wang Qiang sighed in awe.
Mr. Ye savored his wine nearby, cheeks flushed.
His guardian duties had ended.
No soul would dare ravage Planet Namir lightly with Lin Xiu present.
Lei Tong and Mr. Pang, elsewhere, tirelessly gathered wedding gifts for Lin Xiu from arriving guests.
Gifts towered like mountains!
“Rollie, what's this...!?”
Meanwhile, as Baili Haoling hustled with preparations for Lin Xiu, she spotted Rollie.
Trailing Rollie was a horde of identical snowball-like beings.
“I... found my clan members!”
Rollie piped up in its childlike tone.
“Your kin at last?”
Surprise lit Baili Haoling's eyes.
Rollie then bounced off with its clan to another spot.
“We beheld the rise of a god king.”
The Nine Continents leaders, God King Tianling, and fellow god kings shared a table, toasting heartily.
This elixir-wine from life essence tempted them to extra cups.
Suddenly, resounding phoenix shrieks and dragon roars echoed from afar.
“They're here!”
All eyes turned skyward, beholding Lin Xiu astride a colossal divine dragon.
Clad in splendid crimson dragon robes, he shone brilliantly.
Luo Yue rode beside him, phoenix-crowned with a red veil, radiant like a true phoenix.
Myriad gazes pierced the heavens.
“Cuckoo -”
Rollie and its clan erupted with bizarre energies, weaving dreamlike illusions across the space.
Xiaobai trailed with flocks of ice-crystal birds.
Their icy sheen turned vivid scarlet in a flash.
A crimson bridge formed, stretching down to the earth.
Hand in hand, Lin Xiu and Luo Yue stepped off the dragon-phoenix pair, heading to the shimmering energy hall.
The grand ceremony hall it was.
Luo Zhen and his wife occupied the central seats inside.
“On this perfect day under full moon and blooming flowers.”
“Honored guests, welcome to Mr. Lin and Ms. Luo's wedding!”
A man strode forth, surveying the vast banquet arrays, and proclaimed.
No amplifiers needed—his voice resonated in every mind present.
Clap clap——
Deafening cheers erupted!
“Now, greet the bride and groom!”
Hand in hand, Lin Xiu and Luo Yue approached.
Honoring ancient rites, they bowed thrice and kowtowed nine times.
Luo Zhen and his wife beamed ear to ear at the sight.
After all these years, such joy at last.
As rituals unfolded through the day, dusk settled in.
Lin Xiu and Luo Yue perched on the bridal bed, hearts racing with eager tension.
Lin Xiu's pulse thundered, fueling thrilling expectation.
With a steadying breath, he reached out to lift the red veil slowly.
A delicately rouged, moon-fair face emerged before him.
Luo Yue flushed with shy nervousness.
“Yue’er, from this day forward, we'll be together eternally.”
Lin Xiu tenderly encircled Luo Yue's waist, easing her onto the bed. Admiring her flawless allure and ruby lips, he drew the dragon-phoenix drapes shut, extinguishing the lights into shadowy bliss.
…
This dawn, Lin Xiu gazed at Luo Yue slumbering peacefully in his hold, planted a soft kiss on her brow, then slipped free gently, dressed, and stepped out.
From Lingxian City's towering hall, distant vistas unfolded clearly.
“Cloud-tressed beauty, floral grace, steps light as on golden paths, spring warmth veiled by lotus screens.
Brief spring eve yields to high sun; henceforth, no early court for the king.”
“Tsk tsk, Lin Xiu, life's treating you royally now.”
A voice drifted from nearby.
Glancing over, there stood Baili Haoling.
“Quiet, you.”
Lin Xiu shot back, mildly irked.
“Even as a true god, composure eludes you.”
Baili Haoling teased smugly.
Several figures approached then.
Peering closer, the lead was the wedding emcee, trailed by four stunning women.
One appeared adorably youthful, another mirrored Baili Haoling with dual blades at her hips.
Following were a dolphin-mounted lady and an innocently sweet one.
Lin Xiu knew the man and one woman.
Baili family ancestors!
“Congratulations.”
The man grinned warmly.
“Forgot my intro. I'm Li Rui; these are my wives.”
He addressed Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu smiled back.
This Li Rui radiated immense power, plain to sense.
“Wait here, ladies; I've words for Brother Lin.”
“Plotting mischief together?”
The dual-blade woman eyed them warily.
“Nothing of the sort.”
Li Rui sighed helplessly.
They stepped aside.
“Are you a true god too?” Lin Xiu blurted instinctively.
“Sort of...” the man affirmed.
“The cosmos sprawls endlessly; our domain's but a speck.”
“Past the Ninth Heaven lie realms teeming with mighty entities.”
Lin Xiu nodded thoughtfully.
Back then...
“Curious why I held back earlier?” Li Rui eyed Lin Xiu with a faint smile.
“Had you faltered, I'd have acted. But your prowess, heir to this universe's true god legacies, seemed equal to the task.”
“I get it,” Lin Xiu nodded, enlightened.
“I'm departing soon. Henceforth, this universe's safeguard rests with you.”
Li Rui smiled then.
“Beyond the Nine Heavens?” Lin Xiu queried.
“Indeed. May we cross paths there someday,” he replied softly.
Beyond the Nine Heavens...
Intrigue stirred Lin Xiu, yet for now, wanderlust held no appeal.
“Plenty of time ahead. Opportunity will come.”
Unknown wonders awaited there.
“Oh, right.”
“Wedded bliss is truly splendid...”
Li Rui flashed Lin Xiu a covert thumbs-up.
“Idiot Li Rui! Hurry back!”
A shout rang from afar.
“Coming!”
He dashed off promptly.
Henpecked, perhaps?
Lin Xiu chuckled, shaking his head.
Then a silhouette approached from behind.
“Up with the sun?”
Turning, Lin Xiu beheld Luo Yue.
“Mm.”
She smiled gently.
“Let's roam the world together.”
Lin Xiu clasped Luo Yue's hand.
“Wherever you go, I follow.”
Luo Yue gazed at him, smiling.
Lin Xiu drew Luo Yue close with his left arm; his right swept forth, igniting the skies in radiant splendor.
The God Warrior Realm bloomed as if petal rains fell everywhere.
“May all find their joy!”
Lin Xiu's voice boomed forth.
