"Well, I saw Baker Smith, he …"
Celia's face turned pale as she saw another Light Knight walk out. It was the Knight Commander who had followed her for a few years.
This time, she went to Mu Xiusi's place because of Xunmi.
Baker returned to the Vatican to report, but because Baker's Soul Stone was with her, there was no abnormality, so she did not think of him.
When she saw him, she was shocked to find that the other Light Knights who followed her were not by her side.
… I hope I can still make it.
She had never done anything for them, but this time, I hope I can help them.
She gripped the scepter in her hand tightly and thought firmly. From this moment on, Celia was her, and the Holy Maiden was her.
As long as she did not fall, she would not forget her mission and mission.
Xunmi's eyes darkened. She felt the change in the world's fate just now, and the birth of the female lead.
She looked down. It seemed that the female lead of this world should be the Holy Maiden, which was Celia.
"Your Highness Holy Maiden, you're back. The elders and the Pope are waiting for you."
Baker Smith was very happy when he saw Celia. He quickly walked over and bowed to her.
Celia's expression was still a little complicated. She looked at Xunmi for help.
She was not strong enough to see whether this was a human or a skeleton.
She was sweating profusely. Everything she saw now looked like skeletons.
Xunmi shook her head slightly. As a Dragon Knight recognized by the Dragon Clan, how could he be so easily persecuted?
But … there was a lot of black gas on his body.
"Baker, I want to see the Pope too. Take us there."
After getting an answer, Celia heaved a sigh of relief. She was really … scared.
Baker was a little confused, but since it was the Holy Maiden's request, he did not say much and walked in front to lead the way.
When they passed by the long line of praying and the other Light Knights, Xunmi's eyes sharpened, and the golden light on her body automatically emitted.
It blocked all the black Qi that seemed to be probing out.
At the same time, he also seriously injured the operator. How dare he lay his hands on her? Did he really think that she was easy to bully? What a joke!
The few of them walked in. Even though the sun was shining brightly and the whole place was bright and spacious, it made people feel very gloomy and oppressive.
Especially when he smelled the stench of blood, which was so thick that it choked his nose.
Delio held Xunxun's hand, his heart filled with joy. It felt so good to hold hands in public.
If he were to hold her hand now, would he be able to hug her waist the next time? Or would he be able to pull her into his arms and carry her away?
Just thinking about it made him feel that his future was bright. If only there wasn't that black energy that kept coming over to disturb him.
Looking at the things that were scattered and still coming in waves, Delio was furious.
"Which damned thing dares to be so impudent in front of me? Get the hell out here!"
The devouring power, which had not been used for a long time, was unleashed. In just a flash, all the plants, trees, and buildings within a radius of tens of miles were turned into a pool of stagnant water.
If not for the fact that Xunmi had acted quickly and set up a barrier, Mu Xiusi and the others would have perished.
Delio was so angry that he could die. Great, he ran away the moment he attacked, right? Very good, very good.
"Xunxun, I'll go catch him and bring him back for you to kick."
After saying that, he disappeared in a flash, turning into a wisp of black gas and flying toward the distant horizon.
Xunmi shook her head helplessly. "We have to move faster. Otherwise, they'll run away."
The black energy that came with the breeze was quickly dissipating. They must have realized that something was wrong and were preparing to leave.
But they had already come this far. Would they let them go so easily?
Hearing that, Celia and the others quickly went inside.
Baker listened in confusion. He only felt that it was very strange, but he still quickly caught up with him.
Xunmi had just stepped into the main hall of the Holy See where the God of Light was worshiped when she saw the skeleton that was trying to escape from the red-robed Pope with blond hair, black eyes, and slight wrinkles on his forehead.
She waved the vine in her hand and whipped it over.
"Who are you? What are you doing?" Seeing that it seemed that it could not escape, the skeleton simply shrank back into the Pope's body and asked with the Pope's appearance.
And when it saw Celia and Baker, it called out expectantly.
"Celia, you're back. That's great. I was just talking to the elders."
"Come here and let me see. You've been out for more than a year. You don't know how to tell us that you're safe."
The Pope looked to be in his early forties. His body was lean. Perhaps it was because he had been tempered by the power of light for many years, his whole person looked strong and vigorous.
If one ignored the wisps of black energy that were emitted from his body from time to time, his image would be even better.
Unfortunately, a little flaw ruined everything.
"Pope …" Celia was a little absent-minded. In the past, when she went out and came back, the Pope also complained about her with such a loving look, but it was not difficult to hear the tolerance and doting in his voice.
But this time, she only heard the expectation in his voice and the obvious desire in his eyes.
The eyes of the Pope, who had turned into an undead, shone. As long as Celia was by his side, he was not afraid.
However, the white-clothed woman standing at the very front of the group made him very afraid.
Not only was it because of the whip just now, but also a kind of fear and submission that came from the depths of his heart.
It was inexplicable, but it could not be ignored.
Baker did not understand and said as he walked over. "The Pope hasn't rested yet. Didn't you want to see His Majesty?"
He had just taken two steps when he was stopped by Celia. "Don't go over."
"Eh?" Baker was stunned. What's wrong?
"Celia, what's wrong with you? Don't you like me the most? Why don't you come over?"
The Pope was a little anxious to get Celia over. If it was not because of that woman, he would have already snatched her.
Celia raised her head and looked indifferently at the pair of eyes that were no longer clear.
"You are no longer the Pope I know. Today, I will avenge him."
"Those who dare to offend the Light Church will be executed." The word "executed" was sonorous and powerful.
A high-pitched phoenix cry sounded from her body. Then, a huge golden-winged phoenix rose from behind her and circled in the sky.
As it cried, scorching flames spewed out from its mouth and fell to the ground.
The undead who did not manage to dodge in time were all stripped of their disguises. Skeletons scurried everywhere.
Baker stared dumbfoundedly at the scene before him. He was completely dumbfounded. What was going on?
The ground that had been stirred up by the phoenix was once again scorched by the flames spewed out by the phoenix.
Accompanied by a light and surprised voice from the sky. "Xunxun, there's a beautiful and big golden phoenix."
"I'll pluck its hair and make it into a whip for you. It'll be very beautiful."
"…" Xunmi listened to the male lead and thought silently. Should I stop it? Should I stop it? Or should I stop it?
