“Ha, ha, ha. What is it that you want to say, Ian?”

Marlena laughed out loud when she saw Ian making threatening gestures.

She did not know that Ian was complaining at this moment. She thought that this was just a child’s nature.

After that, Marlena played with Ian patiently. Under the care of this big sister, Ian gradually forgot to complain, and a smile bloomed on his face again.

At this moment, the Spirit Purification Ceremony was about to be completed.

Karris, Elise, Michael, and the other angels had all arrived at the corresponding location after careful preparation. Now, they were only waiting for Marlena to go over and preside over the ceremony.

Not long after, an angel warrior walked in from outside.

“Lord Archangel, the Spirit Purification Ceremony is ready. All our clansmen are gathered in front of the statue. We’re just waiting for you to go over and announce the start of the ceremony.”

“Yes, I’ll be right there.”

Marlena nodded slightly.

Facing her subordinates, she had long restrained her warm side and returned to her calm appearance.

After the subordinate left, Marlena carried Ian.

“Let’s go, Ian. I’ll take you to the Spirit Purification Ceremony.

“You are our Holy Son. Perhaps you will bring us unexpected luck during the ceremony.”

As she spoke, Marlena brought Ian to the Sacred Square.

The Sacred Square was where the angels held their annual Spirit Purification Ceremony.

The entire square had a radius of thousands of meters. Around the square stood a circle of angel statues.

Those statues were all heroes of the angel race who had passed away, or role models with outstanding battle achievements in the Abyss.

The angels carved them into statues and placed them in the square, hoping that every generation of angels would remember the past heroic deeds of the angels and the glory of their ancestors.

In addition to the surrounding statues, in the middle of the square stood an angel statue that was a hundred meters tall!

This statue had nine pairs of wings on its back. Its jade-carved hair was flamboyant, and its eyes looked down into the distance. The flaming sword in its hand was raised to its waist, looking heroic and majestic.

At this moment, all the members of the Angel Race were standing in line in front of the statue.

Marlena floated to the front of the group from the side.

She held Ian in her arms, her gaze extremely serious.

However, no one knew how Marlena felt at this moment.

In front of her, there were only hundreds of Angels.

This was the entire bloodline of the angel race!

Marlena sighed deeply in her heart.

Sigh!

Millions of years ago, when the angels were at their peak, the number of their clansmen exceeded a million!

Now, after generations of decline, the entire angel race only had these few angels left. If they weren’t allowed to advance, it wouldn’t take long for the word “angel” to become a historic symbol in the Heaven Realm poetry books.

Therefore, Marlena felt a little melancholic.

She couldn’t help but look at Ian in her arms.

“Ian, the advancement bottleneck of the angels has existed for a million years.

Even the Spirit Purification Ceremony could not break through this curse.

I hope that your appearance will bring us hope.”

After muttering a few words, Marlena lifted Ian up slightly.

“My fellow angels!

The person in my arms is the Holy Son of the prophecy!

For a million years, our angel race has been oppressed by the outside world and restricted by internal bottlenecks. It can be said that we have internal and external problems.

However, the arrival of the Holy Son will give us the greatest hope.

“On the day he came to our race, he helped Warrior Karris have a breakthrough. This has already proven the ability of the Holy Son!

For a long time, the ancestors of the angel race no longer protected us, and the Spirit Purification Ceremony could not break our advancement curse.

But today!

The arrival of the Holy Son will definitely bring us good luck!”

“Yes!”

As soon as Marlena finished speaking, the hundreds of angels below shouted in unison.

At this moment, holy power surged from every angel warrior, and an invisible aura instantly covered the entire square.

Ian’s heart skipped a beat when he saw this.

Was this the spirit of the angel race?

Just a few hundred angels could erupt with such a soul-stirring aura. Then what was the situation here millions of years ago when the angel race was at its peak?

Ian could not help but imagine that millions of years ago, there were hundreds of thousands or even millions of high-level angels standing in this square!

The group stretched as far as the eye could see. Their aura could shake the entire Heaven Realm!

Enveloped by the aura of the angels, Marlena walked slowly toward the crowd with Ian in her arms.

During the process, she raised Ian high above her head.

The angels on both sides took the initiative to make way for Marlena. All the angels rose slightly into the air, and the wings on their backs flapped gently.

They looked at Ian in unison, their eyes filled with hope, anticipation, respect, and trust!

This was the Holy Son of the prophecy!

It was the turning point that would lead the angels to glory!

Facing the burning gazes of hundreds of angels, Ian’s small face subconsciously became hot.

His heart pounded.

To be honest, even in his previous life, Ian had never seen such a huge scene since he was young. Now, he was suddenly worshiped by hundreds of living beings, and the worshippers were angels who symbolized justice and holiness.

Who could withstand such a scene!

If not for the fact that he was still young and carefree and if not for Marlena hugging him, Ian would have run away.

Fortunately, this situation did not last long.

Marlena led Ian around the group of angels before returning to the front of the angels.

“The Sword of Justice disperses the thick fog, and holy light illuminates the ground!

I hereby announce that the Spirit Purification Ceremony has begun!”

Following Marlena’s order, the hundreds of angels retracted their expressions and lowered their heads piously.

Marlena also hugged Ian and turned around to face the huge statue.

Then, she knelt on one knee, hugged Ian with one hand and placed the other on her chest, and began to worship the statue.

The other angels followed her posture and worshiped the statue.

In this solemn setting, not a single angel made any noise. They were all reciting slow and melodious syllables.

Unlike their usual speech, Ian couldn’t understand the angels’ prayers.

However, Ian guessed that this should be a prayer incantation passed down from generation to generation by the angels, similar to some scriptures in the human world.

But Ian didn’t care about that.

Although he was living with the angels, he did not have the faith of the angels.

However, everyone was praying piously, and Ian couldn’t break the rules. He was very obedient to him and didn’t make a sound.
