"Senior Ding, please wait!" Sun Mingyue called out softly.
Ding Ruijie paused and slowly turned to look at her.
Sun Mingyue said, "I see that Senior Ding has something to say. I hope Senior Ding can enlighten me!"
Ding Ruijie pondered and shook her head. "I shouldn't talk about the Holy Church's internal affairs."
"Senior Ding, please speak your mind. I won't blame you," Sun Mingyue said.
Ding Ruijie looked at her deeply and sighed. "There's something wrong with the Holy Church's Priest."
"What is it?" Sun Mingyue frowned.
Ding Ruijie said, "There's a Fu Dynasty traitor. I think his surname is Fang."
Sun Mingyue suppressed her instinctive denial and looked at her thoughtfully. "Senior Ding, you can see this?"
"Heavenly Prophecy is mysterious and unpredictable. I don't know what you can see." Ding Ruijie said plainly, "I'm just telling you what I saw. It's considered a form of friendship between you and Xiao Ge."
Sun Mingyue gave a fist salute. "Thank you, Senior Ding."
She felt a little guilty. Liang Yinge's death was related to her, and she did not expect Zhao Dahe to really kill Liang Yinge.
Ding Ruijie said, "I've said what needs to be said. My worldly wish has been fulfilled. I'll never see you again."
She waved her hand and fluttered away, quickly disappearing into the forest.
Sun Mingyue frowned and remained silent.
Du Ying pursed her red lips and did not let herself speak.
After a while, Sun Mingyue turned around and walked back.
Du Ying only dared to speak when she saw that her expression had relaxed. "Saint, she's talking nonsense, right?"
"You can't ignore the words of the Heavenly Prophecy Pavilion's disciple," Sun Mingyue said.
Du Ying scoffed. "She said that Priest Fang Qingyang is a Fu Dynasty traitor. Isn't that nonsense!"
Sun Mingyue did not comment.
Du Ying said, "Guardian Fang has killed many Fu Dynasty martial arts masters and has always been hunted by them. I don't believe that he's a Fu Dynasty traitor!"
Sun Mingyue smiled and did not say anything.
She did not believe it either. However, the world was unpredictable, and the most unexpected was often the truth. She had never doubted Fang Qingyang's loyalty, but people were fickle. She still had to see.
However, this matter could not be investigated, or people would be divided.
She had a special technique, so she didn't need to investigate. She could find clues with just a few words.
"Send a message to Protector Fang," Sun Mingyue said. "Ask him to come see me."
"Yes." Du Ying nodded helplessly.
— —
The setting sun dyed the [Light Palace] yellow, but it was still bright and clean.
Sun Mingyue looked at Fang Qingyang, who was standing below, and said faintly, "I met a disciple from the Heaven Mystery Pavilion, Ding Ruijie, who's Liang Yinge's Master's Uncle, today. She said that you're from the Fu Dynasty."
Fang Qingyang was dressed in a green robe. His handsome face and tall posture made him look like a jade tree that stood in the wind with a dazzling expression.
He couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, and he revealed an expression of disbelief.
Then, his handsome face darkened and he said coldly, "Saintess, are you suspecting me?"
"The people from the Pavilion of Divination suspect you," Sun Mingyue said indifferently. "What do you think I should do?"
"The Saint still doesn't believe me!" Fang Qingyang's expression was dark, his eyes gleaming as he glared at her.
Sun Mingyue said, "You were able to become a Priest because you've been tested by the Holy Church, so I naturally believe you. That's why I want to ask you in detail, how did you offend the Pavilion of Divination?"
"I have nothing to do with the Pavilion of Divination," Fang Qingyang said in a low voice.
He secretly sighed in relief. It was good that the Saintess believed him.
He had always secretly admired the Saintess and helped her wholeheartedly. It would be too sad if she suspected him because of a single sentence.
Sun Mingyue said, "The Pavilion of Divination wouldn't frame you for no reason. You must have offended them somewhere."
"Could it be because I've killed people from the Fu Dynasty?" Fang Qingyang said, "I've killed many Fu Dynasty powerhouses, so it's inevitable that these people have some connection with the Pavilion of Divination. It's hard to tell them apart."
Sun Mingyue nodded slowly. "It's very likely."
Fang Qingyang frowned. "Why would the people from the Pavilion of Divination tell you this, Saintess?"
"It seems that the martial arts world of the Fu Dynasty is wary of the Holy Church." Sun Mingyue frowned and said slowly, "They're starting to suppress the Holy Church."
"That's troublesome." Fang Qingyang said, "Saintess, they won't let it go this time. Once the Pavilion of Divination says that the Holy Church will endanger the Li Dynasty's imperial court, the hearts of the people …"
His heart sank at the thought.
The words of the Pavilion of Divination were too powerful. The lethality of one sentence was equivalent to the power of a dozen Grandmasters.
Sun Mingyue said, "Yes, I guess the Pavilion of Divination won't let it go. They want to destroy the hearts of the people in the Holy Church."
"How do we fight back?" Fang Qingyang said, "They can steal the Heavenly Secrets, so it'll be troublesome if we really go against them."
The disciples of the Pavilion of Divination could see the past and the future. If they said that the Holy Church of Light would endanger the Li Dynasty in the future, no one would dare to ignore it. Even those who did not believe it would be doubtful.
This was the authority of the Pavilion of Divination.
Sun Mingyue said, "We'll first announce that the Pavilion of Divination is spreading lies and that the Holy Church of Light does not welcome the disciples of the Pavilion of Divination."
"That's the only way." Fang Qingyang shook his head.
They were forced to do so. Once such an announcement was made, it would be tantamount to becoming enemies with the Pavilion of Divination. As an enemy, they would not be fair and would inevitably say something unfavorable to the other party. This could weaken the prophecy of the Pavilion of Divination against the Holy Church of Light.
However, if that was really the case, it would be completely hostile to the Pavilion of Divination. The Pavilion of Divination would definitely make a move.
Sun Mingyue said faintly, "We'll become enemies sooner or later. Don't think about luck."
"We're not ready yet." Fang Qingyang sighed.
Sun Mingyue said, "We'll never be ready. We can act when the time is right. From now on, the responsibilities of the Four Great Priests will be heavier. You have to pull yourself together and hold on at the critical moment."
"Yes." Fang Qingyang felt warm and gave a fist salute.
Footsteps were heard and Du Ying's voice was heard. "Saintess, Ding Ruijie has spoken again!"
"Come in," Sun Mingyue said.
Du Ying entered quietly and gave a fist salute to Fang Qingyang. Then, she said, "Ding Ruijie said that Priest Lu is from the Qiu Dynasty."
"From the Qiu Dynasty …" Sun Mingyue laughed and said, "Alright, you can leave."
"Do you want Priest Lu to come over?"
"No need." Sun Mingyue shook her head.
Du Ying curtsied and retreated.
Fang Qingyang frowned. "Who exactly is this Ding Ruijie?"
"A disciple of the Pavilion of Divination," Sun Mingyue said faintly.
Before the two of them could speak, Du Ying came out of the basilica again. "Saintess, she said that Junior Brother Zhao Dahe is from the Zheng Dynasty."
"Interesting." Sun Mingyue laughed. "Mm, you don't have to report this to me anymore."
"Yes." Du Ying answered crisply and walked away.
"Go to the Fu Dynasty and have a look." Sun Mingyue frowned and said, "See what happened to the Pavilion of Divination."
"Yes." Fang Qingyang nodded slowly.
Sun Mingyue said, "I always feel that there's something strange about this Ding Ruijie."
She then thought about what happened to Ding Ruijie and vaguely understood that Ding Ruijie had gone crazy and did not want to live alone. She wanted to cause a ruckus and then go to the Outland to accompany her lover. That was why she acted recklessly.
Fang Qingyang said, "I'll go to the Fu Dynasty to investigate."
