Mu Ningxue briefly explained the situation. She emphasized how Priest Bude was purposely making things difficult for her, and how he was trying to delay the treatment for Mofan's injuries.
As soon as she finished, she heard a commotion outside the door. It turned out that the three Great Priests of the Hall of Faith had arrived. Priest Bude, who was in charge of the interrogation room, ran over with his forehead covered in sweat. He looked at the Knight Apollo, Candidate Xinxia, and the Hall of Faith's Priest Tata in confusion!
"I didn't know the Saintess was here for an inspection. Please forgive me for not coming to greet you. May I know what your orders are?" Priest Bude quickly bowed.
"Why did you lock them up?" Xinxia asked.
"They … they risked their lives to kill young man Barbaro and steal the Lanmu Flower. I was only following the rules," Priest Bude replied. His heart was in great shock.
Why would the Candidate be alerted?
Why would the Candidate be alerted!?
"Where's the evidence?" Xinxia asked.
"The evidence … the evidence is still being investigated …" Priest Bude stuttered.
"The evidence is still being investigated?" Xinxia's voice turned cold.
"Yes … yes, after all, they were indeed using magic on Mount Lanmu. I didn't see anyone else apart from them," Bude said with a clear mind.
"Why didn't you treat him!?" Xinxia asked again.
Xinxia had already stood up from the wheelchair. She was normally weak, but she was emitting a domineering aura!
"Well … I'm still investigating, so I didn't …" Priest Bude was still trying to convince Xinxia.
"Nonsense!"
Xinxia's eyes suddenly flickered. There was no wind in the interrogation room, but her hair and clothes were drifting wildly, as if the anger in her heart had exploded in the air. Her Soul's Whistle swept across the room and struck Priest Bude's mind fiercely!
Budo instinctively tried to resist, but this Soul Howl was so powerful that he couldn't defend himself at all. Not only was he sent flying, but his soul also suffered a serious blow!
Feeling the rage from the candidate's soul, everyone in the interrogation room knelt on the ground. The three respected high priests had wanted to ask a few questions, but they did not expect the candidate, who had always been gentle, to be so furious. They did not have the slightest intention to protect him and hurriedly knelt down, not daring to ask a single question.
Apollo, Mu Ningxue, and Tata, who were standing behind Xinxia, were all shocked by the Soul Howl. This was the first time Tata had seen Xinxia like this after serving her for so long!
Priest Bude suffered a heavy mental injury. His neatly combed hat fell to the ground, and his curly hair fell down. He fell against a corner of the wall in a sorry state.
But Bu De didn't dare to disobey in the slightest. He seemed to realize that the kid he had locked up had an unusual background. He didn't dare to pretend to be in pain. He hurriedly crawled over from a distance and knelt there while trembling. His head was completely pressed to the ground.
"I have failed in my duty, please forgive me, Saintess," Priest Bude was so scared that his soul almost left his body.
"Miss Candidate, I believe there's been a lot of misunderstandings. Bude probably didn't know the young man was one of your men, so he misjudged …" a white-bearded high priest among the High Priests said.
"Silence!" Xinxia snapped coldly.
The white-bearded High Priest was stunned. He was one of the three High Priests in charge of the Hall of Faith. Usually, he didn't take the words of the candidate seriously. Today, when he saw the candidate treat his subordinate Bude like this, he wanted to persuade him. Who knew that the candidate didn't give him any face at all!
The white-bearded high priest did not expect this at all. The other two High Priests quickly pulled at the white-bearded high priest, indicating that he should not talk back to the candidate at this time.
The Knight of Apollo stood there and glanced at the white-bearded high priest. The corner of his mouth rose. His face finally showed some expression.
The white-bearded high priest had never been nice to the candidate. Now that Bude had offended the candidate's family, the old man was still trying to take advantage of his seniority. He was asking for trouble!
"Saintess, please calm down. This old servant will personally investigate this matter. I will give your brother justice no matter what. Bude has overstepped his authority and neglected human life. This old servant will give him the harshest punishment!" The other high priest also knew that he could not continue to play a different tune at this time and hurriedly spoke in this direction.
"Sigh, Your Highness, this kid has a good physique. I'll treat him now, and he should be fine. The Hall of Faith has been a little lawless these years. Let the high priest deal with him. Don't be angry. Three elders, you are the souls of the Hall of Faith. You are the oldest and strongest, but there are still many things that need to be strictly investigated. There is no need to keep a priest like Bude who can't distinguish between right and wrong, "Tata walked over and said.
"Yes, yes, Your Highness is right. We will punish Priest Bude severely," the high priest who tried to mediate the situation said.
… …
… …
Mofan recovered very quickly. His physique was as strong as an ox.
When he was fully awake, Mofan found himself lying in the villa again. The familiar bed and the familiar scent of the little maid who served him.
Although Mofan was confused when he was in the interrogation room, he still heard Xinxia's angry voice.
Even Mofan had never seen Xinxia like this, let alone Tata and Apollo!
For some reason, Mofan was quite proud of himself.
"Brother Mofan, do you have a list of daily tasks in your mind that you will only feel better after you complete them?" Xinxia turned her wheelchair over. She had a plate of sliced fruits on her knees to appease Mofan's anger.
"What do you mean?" Mofan asked with a confused face.
"Is it so difficult for you to avoid doing dangerous things?" Xinxia grumbled.
"…" Mofan was left speechless.
Fine, Xinxia was just complaining about how he was always looking for trouble.
Tata also mentioned that it was caused by a strong Super Light Mage. How did Mofan, an Advanced Mage, provoke a Super Mage!?
"I was forced to do it this time," Mofan admitted.
"Since when was it not the case?" Xinxia asked in return.
