Backstage at the Pillarless Banquet Hall.
Liu Jiren and a group of big shots stared in shock, their mouths agape, continually looking upwards.
Initially, when they heard Mr. Lu "go back on his word" and announce his identity, they felt a bit frustrated.
However, after witnessing the shocking scene of "daytime ascension," everyone immediately dared not have any unpleasant emotions, replaced instead by an inner reverence.
Why did these people change so quickly?
The answer is very simple, as the saying goes, there are gods above one's head watching.
The literal meaning of this proverb is that three feet above everyone's head, there are gods watching, implying that people's behavior will be seen by the gods, thus they should not commit wrongdoing.
Liu Jiren and the dozen or so big shots always regarded Lu Li as a super-powerful "monster," never truly aligning him with a "divine being," so they still dared to harbor feelings.
