Delding stared dumbfounded at the video on the screen, utterly shocked.

Like Raj and Trish, he had recently been angrily cursing the Ancestral Gods, believing their rumors were the reason he had quit his job and spent his savings.

Now, seeing the footage on the video, he realized how wrong he was to have cursed the Ancestral Gods before.

Delding felt immensely ashamed, both his hands trembling slightly.

He murmured to himself, "The Ancestral Gods gave their lives to save the world, so great, and I actually doubted him for spreading rumors? Oh, I’m simply a beast!"

Unable to hold back, he sobbed once, then lifted his head with a resolute gaze, deciding that no matter what, he must go to Huaxia once to perform the final sending-off ceremony for the Ancestral Gods.

...

Asia, Ah San.

"Who was it that said the Ancestral Gods were spreading rumors? Stand out now!"

"I always thought the end of the world didn’t come because the Ancestral Gods were spreading rumors, but that was never the case. The true reason was that he silently blocked the gamma-ray burst from striking Earth!"

"Sob, sob, Ancestral Gods, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have missed you before."

"Before, I always thought the Ancestral Gods were an uncompromising super demon king, but after watching the video today, I’ve come to realize that he was always concerned for Earth. He would rather sacrifice himself to save us eighty billion ’ignorant people.’ I finally understand why he used to call us Earthlings ’lowly creatures,’ yes, we truly underestimated him with our small minds!"

"Ancestral Gods, you are even more powerful than Brahma; I don’t believe you are dead, please come back to Earth, okay? We will never doubt you again, we just want you to return."

The bewildering acts done by the Ah San people are countless, yet even they were moved by the Ancestral Gods, which shows how significant the impact of this event is globally.

...

Similar events are unfolding in nations around the world.

Countless people are moved to tears by the Ancestral People’s selfless act of saving the world.

Of course, there are also a small number of people like Raj, Trish, Delding, and others, feeling so ashamed for previously "misunderstanding" the Ancestral People that they couldn’t restrain their emotions.

If the scope of the whole world is too large for one to immediately grasp the specifics, then the internet, as a microcosm of the world, can definitely show the impact and response of people to the Ancestral People’s salvation of the world for anyone who cares to look.

For example, on the international version of TikTok, the video of the Ancestral Person saving the world has garnered over 320 million likes, breaking a world record, and the comments have reached a staggering 76 million, another world record.

If someone were to click on it now, they would definitely see many netizens expressing gratitude, apologies, and similar sentiments.

For instance, a netizen with the nickname Calista Without the Tower commented: "I finally understand why Huaxia’s Inamori Kazuo said, ’The strongest people are always lonely, it’s the weak who like to stick together.’ This phrase highlights how the strong often need to face challenges alone, while the weak tend to seek group support and protection. This perspective coincides with the Huaxia Daoist philosophy of Grandmaster Zhuangzi who believed ’coming and going alone are called uniqueness; those who are unique are called the noblest.’ In the Ancestral Person, I’ve seen that nobility within solitude. Despite our worldwide slander, he opted to stand out and shield us from harm when a real gamma-ray burst arose, even at the cost of his life. At this moment, I feel overwhelmed with emotions that ultimately lead to a single point—I just want to say, Ancestral Gods, thank you for saving the world and granting us a new life!"

The Little Han Race said without sincerity: "In Western philosophy, there’s a saying that ’the strongest person in the world is also the loneliest.’ How similar is this to the Huaxia proverb, ’It is cold at the top’? The Ancestral Gods possessed incredible power beyond ordinary imagination, forming a lonely heart. He never argued with us, even when we vilified him, thinking the gamma-ray burst was fabricated and even going so far as to assassinate his parents and kill his distant relatives. In such an environment, he still chose to stand up and save the world, sacrificing his life. Such noble and great character, I truly cannot find a second one like him. I hold the highest respect for him. Ancestral Gods, our Earth is brilliant because it once had you."

Not only these two netizens express high respect; some with perhaps not as high an educational level but who speak more directly, are also expressing respect, gratitude, shame, and so on.

"Sob, sob, Ancestral Gods, thank you for saving the world."

"After watching the video, I was sobbing uncontrollably. It’s all my fault, misunderstanding the Ancestral Gods at first. Now that he has fallen, I can’t even apologize, but in any case, I still want to say here to the whole world, ’I’m sorry’ to the Ancestral Gods — I’m sorry for marring your great noble character with my small-mindedness."

"If the Ancestral Gods were not born, Earth would be in eternal darkness."

"There have been many, many great people in the history of various countries, but in my heart, no matter how great what they did was, it cannot compare to the Ancestral Gods."

"Ancestral Gods, I know it’s unrealistic to ask for your forgiveness for my previous ignorance now, but I truly know I was wrong. If you can have another lifetime, I am willing to give everything to become your most faithful believer."
