The king silently watched this all the way until Gu Qing Shan left and closed the door.
"I can tell, he's usually a very filial son" the king said.
"No, father, he's an orphan, his parents passed away when he was 6, so he's been living by himself ever since" Anna answered.
The king was a bit surprised.
He suddenly asked: "He's the prince you've chosen?"
"That's right, the first time I met him, I already liked him" Anna stared straight into her father's eyes and answered.
The king had a look of praise on his face: "Daughter, you have good eyes"
"Anna, I purposely tested the person next to you, because I noticed that he was wearing the Death God's relic"
"I gave it to him, he gave it back to me, then I gave it back to him"
The king was a bit confused and asked: "You said he gave it back to you?"
"That's right"
The king was stunned for a while, then asked in confusion: "There's still such a foolish person nowadays?"
"It's quite silly."
The king sighed: "If that's the case, then your eyes aren't just ordinarily good"
His expression suddenly became serious: "Before I completely disappear, there's one thing I need to tell you"
"And the secret that our Medici clan has been silently protecting for 700 years, I need to tell you, only then will I live up to the name of Medici"
"For the last few hundred years, besides the first head of our clan, no one else has been able to inherit this inheritance"
"Anna, you are the most talented woman in the history of the Medici clan, as well as the last member of the clan, whether or not you can inherit it, don't worry about it"
The king stared at his daughter, unwilling to look away.
He reached his hand out, wanting to touch his daughter's head, but then remembered that he can't touch anything anymore.
His hand stopped in mid-air.
Anna stepped forward and put her head under her father's hand.
"I don't know what you're talking about" she whispered.
"I ask the Gods in heaven to be my witness" the king's expression became serious and spoke.
"Today, I am here to entrust the Medici clan's inheritance to my daughter, Anna"
"From now on, Anna will be the new head of the Medici clan"
In the showroom the King's countenance was grave and solemn, and his tone slow and firm. Behind him was a nearly identical scene in the picture.
The young King stroked his daughter's head with one hand, and was about to place the crown on her head with the other.
They were separated by a wall.
As Gu Qing Shan closed the door, he saw the Holy Apostle.
When they passed through the checkpoint, they met face to face.
Saint Ivan was wearing a white ascetic robe that bared his shoulders and chest.
He stood quietly at the end of the corridor, looking at Gu Qing Shan.
"Are you looking for me?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I've been waiting for a long time," Saint Ivan said.
"Tsk, what a responsible employee" Gu Qing Shan said.
"It's my duty, but it's also my pleasure." A cruel expression appeared on Ivan's face.
"Why are you in such a hurry to find me? Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Before that" Ivan spoke: "According to procedure, I have to tell you that guests are not allowed to enter this place"
Saint's face showed a hint of a smile — — - like a cat that found a mouse's trail.
"Is that so? I think I'm lost "
Gu Qing Shan fixed his collar, fixed his hair, then changed his Title to "You Ji General".
He quickly walked towards her.
"If you don't mind, please take me back to the ball" he said as he walked.
"I'll be honored to take you away from here" the Saint said.
The milky white light gathered and formed a solemn and holy pattern that quietly appeared under his feet.
The Holy Church's Mystic-type God's Chosen Skill, [Atonement].
Any damage will be returned to the attacker twice as much.
Gu Qing Shan glanced over and understood.
"Then what are we waiting for, lead the way, we're leaving" he said.
"No, no, no, we can't leave" Saint Ivan shook his head.
As they talked, the distance between them was getting closer.
"Ah, I know, I'm sorry"
Gu Qing Shan seemed to understand something and took out her wallet from her pocket.
"I forgot that everything in the Holy Empire costs money, here — — - here's your tip" he took out a stack of money and waved it in his hand.
Saint Ivan's expression was very unpleasant.
"The humiliation you've given me, I'll return it to you a hundredfold!" he roared in a low voice.
"You don't even want money? Then what do you want? "Gu Qing Shan appeared confused.
He had already walked through half the hallway, but his feet didn't stop and continued to walk towards her.
"My hearing is different from normal people — — - from the room you came out from, I can still hear a faint heartbeat and breathing"
"I think it's a girl" Saint Ivan smirked: "How about we wait a bit longer and see who your little lover is?"
Gu Qing Shan paused, then shook her head: "As the host, you're too curious about your guest's privacy"
He scowled and stared at the holy pattern under the Saint's feet.
He suddenly sighed: "To be honest, I don't want to fight you"
Ivan was intrigued: "Why? Afraid of me? "
Gu Qing Shan explained: "The Holy Church has many God's Chosen Skills, each of which have quite a few people awaken, but Repentance is a very rare God's Chosen Skill, very few people have awakened it"
"In this generation, I'm the only one" Ivan pridefully declared.
"That's right, very rare indeed"
Gu Qing Shan nodded in agreement and continued.
"Tsk tsk, standing there and letting people hit you, not caring even when your clothes are ripped off, begging people to hit you again and again" he sighed, "there are a lot of masochists in this world, but to reach your level, I dare say that no human can do it"
Ivan was stunned hearing Gu Qing Shan's words, completely speechless.
"I'm going to, I'm going to kill you" Ivan muttered incoherently.
"Such a bad attitude, but I'll still pay you" Gu Qing Shan threw the stack of notes away.
The notes scattered all over the sky, blocking Ivan's vision.
At this point, the two of them were close enough.
A sword appeared out of thin air.
The Earth Sword.
"Sword? A thin and fragile thing "
Ivan let the notes scatter and coldly laughed.
Gu Qing Shan held the Earth Sword, circulating her spirit energy.
As if sensing something, Ivan's face changed.
He quickly retreated, trying to avoid this attack.
But this sword was too fast, he reacted too late, so he couldn't avoid it.
The air let out a tearing sound.
Bam!
The communication device on Ivan's body was taken out by the sword, disassembled in mid-air, fell to the ground, and broke into many pieces.
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit relieved.
As long as Ivan can't contact anyone within 10 minutes, no one will know the reason for this.
That way, it'll be a lot easier to deal with later.
"Someone — –"
Ivan shouted, raised his hand, summoning a white flame to grab Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan dodged to the side, then swung her sword forward again.
Hit.
But this strike was so gentle that it didn't cause any damage at all.
The sword had already slashed horizontally, the tip of the sword was pulled away, but the spine of the sword was still on Ivan's chest.
This strike won't cause any damage to Ivan.
The power of the sword phantoms will carry him forward.
"Have a pleasant journey" Gu Qing Shan said in a low voice.
— – boom!
The entire hallway was hit by the sword qi, turning into rubble.
Holy Apostle Ivan was enveloped by a cluster of sword phantoms, then disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
