Making a move against the church was something that McOxi had never imagined. Although he had talked about killing the Great Pope in his conversations with his friends, what an adult said and what they truly thought were often not the same.
McOxi was well aware of the stakes involved. His attitude toward the Great Pope was perhaps the same as his old father's. Perhaps it was because of his old age and the fact that the Great Pope's style tended to be more moderate, which was why he was very different from McOxi.
McOxi was dissatisfied with the Great Pope, and would occasionally say malicious things like "You old thing, are you going to die or not?" But when he actually met the Great Pope, he was still very respectful.
This was because the Great Pope was the great master of Mixiu's Yuan Venerate. He was loyal and devoted to his country, and followed the Yuan Venerate's lead. Although he was arrogant and conceited, he had never thought of usurping power.
As a legendary general of Mixiu nation, McOxi considered himself to be very professional, but he had never thought that he would actually walk down this path today.
He had actually mistaken the Great Pope for an assassin who had broken into his West Wind Ancient Castle residence, and stabbed him to death …
McOxi, who had never crumbled even when facing hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, instantly panicked and didn't know how he should face all this. If it was confirmed that he had something to do with the Great Pope's death, even if it was found that he had accidentally killed the Great Pope, the Yuan Venerate didn't intend to hold him responsible.
But he would become the focus of the people's condemnation … and all the good reputation he had built up in his native cultivation country over the years would go down the drain!
Of course, this wasn't the most frightening thing. He was more worried about his daughter, McOxi Abei. If something happened to him, his daughter would be implicated as well.
Although the Great Pope's realm wasn't high, he still had a lot of loyal followers who he had built up over the years through faith.
Ah Bei! Don't worry … dad absolutely won't let you be implicated … McOxi made up his mind at that moment.
Sacrificing Levis was the only way now.
He had no choice but to do so.
At the same time, if Levis took the fall, he could legitimately dispatch troops to get rid of the Scarlet Orchid Association as well. When the time came, he could act first and report later, directly kill Levis and bury the truth.
He would not give Levis any chance to defend himself.
Therefore, the most urgent matter at hand was to treat the injuries on the Pope's body. The real cause of death could not be covered up, and that sword strike of his was probably the fatal wound on the Pope.
The stab was very deep, and the shape was special. Only the General's Sword could cause such a wound.
That was why McOxy had to create the illusion that the High Pontiff was still alive. He had to use some means to stop the wound, repair the sword wound, and replenish the High Pontiff's blood, so that the blood could continue to flow through his body for a while.
Although he would have to pay a huge price to forge such an illusion, in order to preserve the current situation and protect his daughter, he had no choice but to do it no matter how big the price was.
At the same time, in the backyard, Mike Abbe was sitting on a swing with a book in his hand.
The head maid looked in the direction of the cobblestone path and frowned slightly. "The general is already here. Why isn't he here yet? Was it because of what had happened? Does Miss want to take a look? "
"Don't worry about him."
Maiko 'Abbe answered calmly: "He might have run into the Great Pontiff on the way."
"Supreme Pontiff? The Great Pontiff is here? "
"Yes." Mike Abbe smiled. "I saw the Great Pontiff coming here earlier, but he did not respond when I spoke to him. I only reminded him that my father would definitely pass through the cobblestone path to visit me today, so it would be best for the Great Pontiff to wait for him by the side. Do you think my father killed the Great Pontiff as an assassin? That would be interesting! "
"Miss, you must be joking."
The head maid wiped the cold sweat off her forehead and smiled bitterly. "Assassins all have a murderous aura. If the Great Pontiff was here to see the general, why would he have such a murderous aura? The two must have bumped into each other and were having a conversation. "
"Yes. That's true. "Mike Abbe nodded and continued to read the collection of works in his hands.
"Miss, you've read this collection of works several times, but why do you only read this one every time?"
"You don't understand."
Mike Abbe's eyes flashed. "It's like a speck of dust in this era. It's too beautiful …"
…
After the meeting at St. Peter's Cathedral, Madam Lavin and Levis found a private clubhouse for a private talk. The place was surrounded by the Crimson Orchid Association's mafia members and White Warriors.
"Lavin, since there's only the two of us here, I'll get straight to the point." Levis crossed one leg and stared at Madam Lavin. "Actually, it wasn't the Heavenly Dao Alliance and the Church's intention to protect me. Isn't that right? "
"Oh? President Levis, why do you say that? "Madam Lavin smiled.
"Although the Crimson Orchid Association is related to the Church, to the Church, the Crimson Orchid Association is just a mafia that occupies some territory in Glio City. It's a dispensable existence. "
Levis said, "It's just that this time, they happened to be dealing with the Battle Sect and the Huaguo Water Curtain Group, so they used the Crimson Orchid Association as cannon fodder. Since the Great Pontiff is one of the Heavenly Dogs, it's reasonable for him to send someone from the Heavenly Dogs to negotiate with me. Of course, I also have to thank you. If it weren't for you, Lavin, we might not even have had the chance to be cannon fodder. "
"President Li, you must be joking. This was just a stop-gap measure." Seeing that she couldn't hide it anymore, Madam Lavin said bluntly.
"What benefits did the Church promise you when you mentioned this plan? Is it to directly take over my position as president after the deed is done? "Levis laughed." Lavin, you've really made a good plan. If No. 60 High from Huaxiu nation loses this competition, not only will you not give up control of your Wall Wolf cultivation supermarket, you'll also directly swallow up my Crimson Orchid Association. "
Hearing this, Madam Lavin continued to smile. "But from what President Li says, you don't seem to hate me too much?"
"Of course I don't hate you. Instead, I have to thank Lavin … If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see the sun rise tomorrow. Even if I hate you! I also hate the Church. We've worked together for so many years, but they didn't even give us a chance! If it weren't for you … "
At this point, Levis's eyes were red as he gnashed his teeth and said, "If I had the chance, I really wanted to kill that old thing … and stir up a reign of terror in St. Peter!"
