My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 674: Emerge and Flourish
"What does Sacred Sakura want to do? If you don’t mind, we are ready to help with your quest."
"Sacred Sakura Saintess, I wonder which evil sect you wish to exterminate? You only need to say a word and we will be there as vanguards at your beck and call."
"Priestess Miko, please give us your orders as well."

"Hmm..." Miko was a bit troubled.
The newly arrived guests came from diverse backgrounds, but they referred to her with different pronouns. Moreover, they asked almost simultaneously, which confused her.
Before Miko could speak, Zi Xuan stood between the guests and Miko. "Please behave. Don’t you realize that your attitude is troubling Saintess Miko?"
Hearing that, everyone immediately fell silent momentarily as they almost overstepped their bounds. If the Sacred Sakura Saintess was upset, not even their ancestors could save them.
After the guests apologized, Miko replied in kind. "It’s alright. We never mentioned anything to you because our quest will take place in the other world. An evil organization crossed our bottom line and can no longer be tolerated. The sinners beyond redemption will be punished by the heavenly laws and divine judgments."
"The other world? Which world are you referring to? Is it an evil organization in a secret realm?" Abraham nodded in understanding.
The reason was sound, and Sacred Sakura wouldn’t trouble them with the other world’s affairs, but it was still an event he didn’t want to miss, and he was sure he wasn’t the only one who thought so.
"It’s the Caelum World. The heretics in that world can no longer be saved, and our Goddesses will pass their divine judgments on that world." Miko responded calmly, but the words she said felt so heavy and shocking to the ears of the guests.
The mentioned other world wasn’t a mini world in the secret realm, but an authentic other world, the other part of their world!
Moreover, the scale that Sacred Sakura would deploy was a world-class mission where the Goddesses of Sacred Sakura would personally pass their divine judgment to exterminate the heretics!
With the mighty force that would set out, it was clear that it would be a mass purge, not just to eradicate one or two evil sects, but it would be cleansing the world, one-third of Quadria!
"..." Zi Xuan could tell what the guests perceived was different from what Miko said, but she chose to remain silent for the time being.
"Alright, board the ships. We’ll depart in ninety minutes." Miko clapped her hands, passing her orders to Sacred Sakura’s crusaders.
"Yes, ma’am!" The combatants saluted, moving as one under Sacred Sakura’s command. Everyone was prepared to crush the evils and heretics.
"Milady, is it possible for me to participate? I will help and won’t be a burden to you. I know a lot about that world, and it might help." Klaus raised his hand and rushed before the Sacred Sakura Saintess.
"It’s not impossible, but you may be dragged into the chaos and perish." Miko considered it, but they could do just fine even without the help of a third-party faction.
"This is not a drill or a war, but a mass purge. You are a demon, and you will be swept up in holy magic." Zi Xuan shook her head, expressing implicit rejection.
"Is that so..." Klaus was dejected, but he couldn’t help it.
"I can handle holy magic just fine."
"I can cast holy magic as well, so it will be fine."
Several people who could do well with holy magic stepped forward, volunteering.
"If you can follow our orders unconditionally, you are permitted to participate. Please board the ships." Miko didn’t make things difficult and simply allowed those who could carry their own weight.
"Although I am an ancient demon with the dark attribute, I actually have quite good holy magic resistance. Test me if you don’t believe me. Light won’t harm me easily." Abraham tapped his chest before Saintess Miko left. He was reluctant to be left out of this great opportunity!
It might be an eye-opener to broaden his horizon because the Sacred Sakura Goddesses and Sacred Sakura’s higher-ups would step in. Not to mention, the setting was in a distant land that he had never visited before. It was a rare opportunity, and he shouldn’t miss it. Moreover, he could use it to measure Sacred Sakura’s true might!
"Oh, really? If you can resist my holy magic, then I can help you to board the ship." Zi Xuan responded with great doubt. However, she had to ask for permission first. "Saintess Miko, if you allow it."
"Please have a little mercy on him, Priestess Zi Xuan." Miko stopped in her tracks and turned around, watching what was about to happen.
"Bring it on." Abraham steeled himself, ready to receive the holy light attribute attack at any time.
"Then, resist this. Arcane Light of the Holy Sanctuary, bring trial upon this ancient demon." Zi Xuan put her hands together, raising her two index fingers up.
The holy golden light gathered at her fingertips, and it soon formed into a mass of bright light, resembling a mini sun with countless runes spiraling within.
"What the heck?" Abraham looked up with a blank expression. This kind of high-level holy magic was too much of a bully. This seemingly pretty young girl was actually a hidden expert that could exterminate him...
When the ball of holy light fell to the ground, engulfing Abraham, that was where his resistance was truly tested. It was like torture, but he resisted it well for a full minute, even though he was burned and half-scorched.
"I guess, you’re not too bad. Follow the command unconditionally or nobody can save you during this purge quest." Zi Xuan raised her hands to lift her magic, freeing the ancient demon.
"Ha ha ha, I resisted it. Who would have thought that a young girl is a Deity as well, shrine priestess..." Abraham was almost out of breath and almost fainted, but he still stood on his feet.
"Heal." Miko did a little favor and healed the injured Abraham.
"Test me as well." Klaus raised his hand, trying his luck.
"No, you’ll be burnt to ashes before three seconds pass. Don’t try me, and I’m your senior, not a little girl." Zi Xuan revoked her holy magic, refusing to test the other demons because nobody could survive it.
Even the local demon beasts were forced to stay because they couldn’t withstand holy magic. Except for the core team and the affiliate right under Sacred Sakura, only experts above the 5th Rank who could withstand both holy and dark magic could participate in this great mission.
"Dang! Why is my luck so dregs? I missed the screening, and failed to secure the ticket to join the crusaders." Bai Yuchen bit his handkerchief with teary eyes.
He was sure Elder Kitsune would participate as well, but he had to stay behind with the other unchosen disciples.
"Don’t you have a task to guide our new junior sister? Miss Nuwa should be waiting for you at the 37th gate in the north." The nearby disciple patted Bai Yuchen. It wasn’t a shame not to participate since the mission this time was beyond dangerous and the requirements were truly high.
His only regret was that he couldn’t witness the entire event live, but since the seniors would record it, he would just have to wait for them to come back to watch the recording.
"Oh gosh... I almost forgot!" Bai Yuchen slapped his forehead. He volunteered for it because he was just too happy to get a new junior, but because of the departure of Sacred Sakura’s experts, he almost forgot his promise.
Thus, he immediately left and headed towards the meeting place.
A few moments later, the other guests were asked to leave the Sacred Sakura Holy Land immediately because the entire sect would be sealed under divine formation for the time being. No third party was allowed to stay around the Sacred Sakura’s seven great mountains either.
As the departure time arrived, dozens of flying ships and spaceships flew towards the west in an imposing formation.
On the forefront spaceship, Elysia stood on the front deck, pointing her finger forward. "We will warp to the Caelum World right away. All units, activate the force field to prevent the turbulence."
"Aye!" The captains saluted and immediately activated their force fields, covering their entire ships.
Elysia aimed her finger gun straight ahead, casting a spatial magic formation to open a teleportation array to the other side of the world.

A spiraling dark portal opened and expanded widely, enough to accommodate ten battleship-class spaceships at once.
The mass direct teleportation itself would cause intense nausea and dizziness, and that was why the entire fleet had to be protected by a force field.
Right after the entire fleet entered the spatial portal, several uninvited figures sneaked around and secretly entered the portal before it closed. Nobody could have guessed that there were some people following the Sacred Sakura fleet, but they would be on their own devices.
