Chapter 1281 Perfect Merit, Golden Light Protection
Cloud’s farewell ceremony was on the next day.
It would take some time for his body to return to the country. The military department would notify the family first and hand over his remains to the Crawford family.
No one dared to let Bettany go to the airport the next day, but she went anyway. She was dressed in black and looked even more aged.
As soon as the New Year’s red faded, the Crawford family changed into black clothes. The plane transporting Cloud’s body landed and stopped slowly.
Bettany had no time to care about the crowd of people around her. She only stared at the plane.
She watched Cloud’s body getting carried down, covered with the national flag, receiving respect and salutations from thousands of people, and the mourning music played.
After the series of processes, she finally stood in the light with Cloud and received the honor that belonged to him. She could finally tell everyone that Cloud was her son.
“Cloud, welcome home. I’m here to take you home.” 2
She tremblingly lifted a corner of the flag and finally saw Cloud’s pale face.
Cloud still had a bright temperament. Although the professional covered his injuries, Bettany still could see the tragedy.
Bettany caressed Cloud gently and whispered, “It doesn’t hurt. I’ll give you candy.”
She placed a peeled candy near Cloud’s mouth.
Tears fell silently. Bettany was trembling and finally covered her son with the national flag and tidied him.
Hugh stood aside. His mouth pursed tightly, and his hands clenched.
Anthony whispered, “Cloud, we’re here to pick you up.”
Liam’s eyes turned red “Cloud, let’s go home.”
Bryson suppressed his tears and continued, “Cloud, welcome home.”

Jonas whispered sadly, “Cloud, you used to envy my millions of fans… Now you’re also famous. Cloud, let’s go. home!”
Edward sobbed. “Cloud, you didn’t keep your promise, but I’ll remember it! Let’s go home!”
Max felt depressed. “Cloud, let’s go home.”
Gilbert tried his best not to cry. “Cloud, we’re here to take you home.”
Farewell and burial ceremonies, departments, agencies, groups, schools, leaders, and comrades escort and burial were over.
The Shaw and the Woods family also came and mourned silently. Melody and Eloise were comforting Bettany softly.
Quinnie never expected it would be like this today after it was so lively a few days ago. Thinking of Jonas’ strange behavior before, she finally understood.
She could not help much and only made arrangements silently and took care of everything for the Crawford family.
Lisa became obedient. She followed Quinnie, watched several children, and held Matthan in her arms.
Lilly held Cloud’s urn and watched him getting buried. She saw his soul covered in golden. light while smiling and waving to her.
She could not let Bettany and the others see Cloud’s soul during the funeral. Firstly, it was against the rules, and secondly, she worried that Bettany would be sad if she saw Cloud.
“Uncle Cloud, be careful on the road,” Lilly whispered, “You have Perfect Merit. Your next life will be the most fulfilling one.”
Cloud smiled. He rubbed Lilly’s head and said worriedly, “Help me take care of your granny.”
Lilly nodded heavily.
Although she was the King of Hell, she could not control anyone’s life, age, illness, and death. She still had to learn to say goodbye and let go. Even though it seemed difficult, she still had to bid farewell.
During this winter, she finally learned to say goodbye.
King of Styx personally sent Cloud away. Cloud was protected by Golden Light all the way. and Lilly watched Cloud leave intently. Eventually, the golden light disappeared until it was

no longer visible.
When all the liveliness subsided, the Crawford family became deserted.
Bettany looked outside the window. The heavy snow that had been falling for several days finally stopped. The sunlight shone down, and the ground was full of thick snow.
The servants of the Crawford family had returned and were clearing the snow and tidying.
the garden. Everything was in order, but it looked even colder.

Bettany murmured, “After the burial, it’s time to go to the underworld, right? Does Cloud. pass the Yellow Spring Route? Has he arrived at the Hell Ruler Palace?”
The day Cloud’s body returned, Cloud’s soul disappeared. He must have gone to the

Bettany wondered if he
got the candy she gave him.
The children were also silent, and even Matthan did not babble. Bettany turned stiffly and asked, “Where’s Lilly?”
Lilly lay on Bettany’s knees and raised her head after hearing that. “Granny, I’m here. I’ve always been here.”
Bettany smiled. “Oh, you’re in my arms!”
She hugged Lilly, felt the warmth coming from Lilly, and asked in a daze, “Lilly, are you hungry? I’ll cook for you…”
Lilly’s eyes turned red.
She leaned into Bettany’s arms and whispered, “Granny, I’m hungry. I want to eat the fried chicken…”
Bettany nodded and stood up. “Okay, I’ll make it for you right now.”
She had to have something to do, or she would go crazy if she stayed here too long.
Lilly accompanied Bettany in the kitchen, and life seemed to be back to normal.
King of Styx personally escorted Cloud down and unexpectedly stood at the door of the First
Palace.
He was stunned and said in surprise, “Hey, why are we at the First Palace?”
III
Let the King of Judgment judge Cloud? No way!
King of Styx immediately took Cloud away. “Let’s go to Sixth Palace!”
He was a little panicked and could not figure out what happened, so he had to find the King of Transformation first!
However, the King of Judgment’s voice came. “Wait!”
