"A young Chinese tycoon bought it and gave it to the woman he loved."
A strange light flashed in Andre's eyes. There were people who avoided the Hope Diamond and treated it as a peerless and ferocious object. But the people of the world saw it as a symbol of love and romance. It was beautiful and touching. They were two extremes.
"We can't touch that thing." Stunning Snow shook her head.
"Even the Sanctum can't figure out the secret of that thing?" Andrea asked in shock.
"Ever since that thing appeared, it has been recorded for tens of thousands of years. To this day, apart from harming people, I haven't seen any other uses for it. "
Stunning Snow glanced at Andre indifferently and did not say anything else. She lowered her head and continued to read the Bible.
Andre bowed slightly and left quietly.
Just as Andrea had left, a pure and holy white light flew into the room from outside the window. It transformed into a white dove and landed lightly in Stunning Snow's hand.
The white light slowly receded, and a glowing letter appeared.
Stunning Snow glanced at the letter and frowned slightly. With a flick of her finger, the letter immediately turned into rays of sparkling white light and completely dissipated in the air.
There were a few white men standing on the deck of a small ship dozens of miles away from the Sword of the Seas cruise ship. They were all dressed in white robes and had silver crosses hanging around their necks. It was obvious that they were famous clergymen in the Western world.
"Is that vampire traitor on that ship?"
A bald old man in his sixties with a hooked nose looked at the Sword of the Seas in the distance and muttered to himself.
"Lord Pislen, even if that Blood Kindred traitor has the Blood Kindred's Divine Blood, it shouldn't be of any use to us. Why do we need to mobilize so many people?"
A bearded Caucasian man's eyes emitted a faint silvery-white light.
"Dante, the Divine Blood is useless to us. However, if we sell it to the underground market of the Demon Gods Alliance, we can exchange it for a large amount of treasures. You should know that in the hands of the Demon Gods Alliance, there are many things that are beneficial to us clergies. Those things can only be obtained from the Demon Gods Alliance's underground market. "
Pislen said calmly.
"Your Excellency, Archbishop Pislen, how is this any different from forceful robbery? We believe in the Holy God, and we support justice, fairness, benevolence … "
Dante frowned, obviously dissatisfied with this mission.
"Alright! Dante, vampires are the enemies of all clergymen. They are evil, dark, cruel, and disrespectful. There is no mercy in their hearts. If you want the world to be filled with love and peace, then you must eradicate them all. If the Sacred Blood falls into the hands of the Vampires, it will definitely create a peerless expert for the Vampires. It's very likely that another Vampire Duke will appear. "
"Think about it. A Duke of the Blood Kindred would be a great threat to the Vatican," Archbishop Pislen said in a serious tone.
"But if you sell the Divine Blood to the underground market of the Demon Gods Alliance, there is a 90% chance that the Divine Blood will still end up in the hands of the Blood Kindred," Dante retorted.
"That's just an example. I didn't say that we have to do that. The Holy Blood of the Blood Breeds has a certain research value to the Vatican. It's not that we have to sell it. Dante, your understanding of the Divine Path is still too shallow. Well, where do you keep your Bible? Now you can hold the Holy Scriptures and try to comprehend the Divine Path. "
Pislen handed the Bible to Dante with a look that seemed to tell him to read more books.
Dante's face was cold. He took the Bible, turned around and walked into the cabin.
"Lord Pislen, Dante is too pedantic. How can you treat the Blood Kindred of the darkness as the same?"
"That's right. The Divine Blood of the Blood Kindred must not end up in the hands of the Blood Kindred. We have to snatch it away."
…
Beside Archbishop Pislen, a few clergymen continued to flatter him. He was a Archbishop of the Vatican and his status was far above theirs.
"I just sent a letter to Highness Stunning Snow but she did not reply."
Pislen frowned as he spoke.
"Then … what does Highness Stunning Snow mean?" a clergyman asked cautiously.
"I don't think she will take action," Pislen sighed. It was a coincidence that Highness Stunning Snow had appeared on the Sword of the Seas. She was not here for the Divine Blood.
"Even if Highness Stunning Snow doesn't take action, the few of us should be able to snatch the Divine Blood, right?" another clergyman asked.
"Don't be careless. According to the news I received, there are already people from the Blood Kindred and the Sorcerer Clans who have boarded the Sword of the Seas. We are one step behind them. If they had taken action on the ship, they might have succeeded by now. "
Pislen's expression was grave as he spoke. Their actions were very fast!
It was a pity that Highness Stunning Snow did not take action. Otherwise, with her abilities, she would definitely be able to snatch the Divine Blood away.
"Highness Stunning Snow is also a member of the Vatican. Why is she not with us? Could it be that after joining the Divine Temple, she no longer cares about the Vatican … "a young clergyman said with some dissatisfaction.
"Carlo, shut up." Pislen's expression changed slightly as he shouted at the young man to stop. The few clergymen around him also turned pale as they secretly scolded Carlo for being stupid. He had actually dared to talk about Highness Stunning Snow behind her back. Indeed, a newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger.
"Carlo, watch your words in the future. If you blaspheme the Divine, you are a heretic. Highness Stunning Snow is the pride of the Roman Vatican. She was able to join the Divine Temple at such a young age. In the future, her achievements will most likely surpass our Pope. Since she is a member of the Divine Temple, she cannot only set her sights on the Roman Vatican. Her first allegiance should be to the Gods Alliance, "Pislen said with a cold expression.
The Roman Vatican was no longer what it used to be. For a genius like Highness Stunning Snow to appear here, it was a blessing from God. Anyone in the Vatican who dared to blaspheme her would be severely punished.
"I … didn't … do it on purpose …"
Carlo was so frightened that his face turned pale. His body began to tremble slightly. At this moment, he also realized that he had said something stupid. If someone were to use his words against him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
If Pislen wanted to pursue his wrongdoings now, he could directly dispose of him now and would not need to bear any responsibility.
"Carlo is still young. It is normal for him to speak carelessly," someone stood up and advised.
"We are all friends. Carlo is still young. Let us pretend that we did not hear what he said."
Pislen swept his gaze across the crowd and said in a rather imposing manner.
Upon hearing this, the crowd nodded in agreement. Everyone understood that although Pislen seemed to be strict, it was only because he wanted to protect Carlo. Carlo's father had a good relationship with Pislen. They were both Archpriests. Pislen naturally could not let anything happen to Carlo because of his words.
There were only a few clergymen present. If the few of them did not spread the news and did not deliberately use Carlo's words against him, Carlo would naturally be fine.
"Since Highness Stunning Snow is not participating, we can only rely on ourselves to snatch the Divine Blood. I'm afraid we will have many opponents. Everyone, be mentally prepared."
"We will snatch the Divine Blood from the hands of whoever snatches it first," a clergyman said.
"Don't worry, they should not be that fast. With the restrictions of the International Superpowers Confidentiality Agreement, they will definitely not dare to act on the ship. That Blood Kindred traitor is said to have already merged with the Divine Blood. Her abilities are definitely not low. If we force her into a corner, it is very likely that she will do something unpredictable. "
Pislen believed that a person who was about to die could do anything. If she was angry and massacred the passengers on the cruise ship, or even tried to sink the cruise ship, the consequences would be unimaginable.
There was a clause in the confidentiality agreement that stated that they could not cause too much of a commotion in public. Otherwise, they would all be investigated and punished by the International Superpowers Society.
…
That night, Mo Wen carried Shen Jing to the bed. He only gently held her in his arms and did not do anything. At this moment, Shen Jing was sleeping soundly. After being shone by the light of the Hope Diamond, she had been in this state.
Mo Wen checked on her. After discovering that there was nothing wrong with Shen Jing, he left her alone. Perhaps she would be able to wake up comfortably the next morning.
A dim black light suddenly flashed in the room. In the dark of the night, the black light was almost invisible to the naked eye.
Mo Wen's expression turned cold and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
Suddenly, a strange hand of black fog stretched out from the darkness without a sound. It slowly grabbed the Hope Diamond on Shen Jing's neck. The hand of fog seemed to have merged with the surrounding darkness. Even if an ordinary person opened their eyes, they would most likely not be able to see it.
However, before the hand of black fog could grab the Hope Diamond, a golden light flashed by and directly cut the hand of fog.
The hand of fog twisted for a moment. Then, it once again condensed into a palm and fiercely slapped towards Mo Wen. Clearly, it knew that it had been discovered.
"You don't know your place."
Mo Wen coldly snorted. He extended his hand and slapped it lightly. The hand formed by the black fog immediately collapsed without any resistance.
The next moment, Mo Wen's figure disappeared from the room. In a few blinks of an eye, he had scurried out of the window and then flew into the window of another room.
In that room, it was completely dark and one could not even see their fingers.
On the floor in the middle of the room, an old man sat cross-legged. Masses of black fog surrounded his body, almost covering him completely.
A golden light flashed in Mo Wen's eyes and instantly lit up the room. His gaze was fixed on the old man in the black robe.
"At your age, you are still a petty thief," Mo Wen said coldly.
The old man in the black robe slowly opened his eyes and looked at Mo Wen strangely. Then, he said, "You are so young, yet you have such ability. It really makes me ashamed. My actions just now have offended you. I apologize. However, the Hope Diamond is an inauspicious item. The legendary curse is not fake. Don't harm your lover because you don't know. "
The old man in the black robe slowly stood up and bowed slightly to Mo Wen to express his apology. However, his meaning was also very clear. The Hope Diamond was an inauspicious item. He hoped to take it away.
"I know what that thing is like. If you steal it again in the future, you will bear the consequences."
Mo Wen looked coldly at the old man in the black robe. He did not attack him. His figure flashed slightly and disappeared from the room. His speed was so fast that the old man in the black robe actually did not notice how he had left.
Guterra's eyes narrowed slightly. His expression instantly became solemn. The ability of this youth had actually far exceeded his expectations. (To be continued.)
