Chapter 47: Parting Gifts and Final Arrangements

"Actually, I am the reincarnated Arhat who descended to help you overcome this calamity. Now that my mission is complete, it's time for me to return to the heavens and report back."

Jiang Lu sat atop the old man's corpse, explaining mournfully to Jing Lan, who was crying with the despondency of a pear blossom in the rain.

Having resolved the real cause of humanity's internal strife—the Gate of the Divine Nation which was opened by the savior's blessing—Jiang Lu had already received the prompt that he could "leave the mission at any time".

Choosing to be an undercover operative between the Exiles and Paradise City meant the tragedy could not be averted. Not doing so meant he could not obtain timely information. It was an almost impossible mission that changed the course of the world with a simple request to "build me an airplane".

The Gate of the Divine Nation had closed by this time, and Jing Lan had also gotten off Jiang Lu.
