At that moment all hell broke loose. People wearing armours roared as they dashed onto the platform and attacked the gaurds. The one holding Cheng Xiu in place let go and dashed towards the oncoming attacks.
'Move towards the rings! Quick!'
Cheng Xiu did as she was told. What's the plan?
'The rings will lose most of their powers at the penultimate ring. That is our chance to attack.'
Won't they attack us?
'Just let me be in control.'
Cheng Xiu stood in place and just as the goddess said, the rings started to dim. And just as she had warned, the Emperor reached her side.
'Maya!'
[Ding!]
Cheng Xiu felt like she was floating for a moment. She saw Rora move towards her husband even as the Emperor reached for her.
