Chapter 162

"The Grand Princess is only seventh-rank, and that one is said to be a Holy Spirit of the second level; even if its power was reduced, there is no reason it couldn't defeat the Grand Princess. However, I can no longer resolve this matter and must report it upward."

The cardinal muttered to himself.

He immediately sent someone to report the situation here to the palace.

Before long, a woman with a veil over her face and an aura of boundless coldness radiating from her body walked over.

Seeing this woman, the cardinal hurriedly lowered his head. This woman was the saintess of the deity worshipped by the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom, but now, she had been possessed by a Holy Spirit.

After this woman arrived, she walked straight into the dungeon, which forced the cardinal to follow her in.

As a cardinal, he was originally unwilling to go to such a place as a dungeon; for his status, that would be undignified!

That woman, or rather the Holy Spirit, walked into the dungeon and first checked the condition of those temple knights, then walked straight to the innermost cell.

This Holy Spirit frowned.

Because it did not see any clues.

Then it took out a white stone and crushed it violently.

An incomparably intense holy light radiated out.

This holy light seemed capable of penetrating everything; neither walls, nor human bodies, nor armor could resist its penetration. Even though it lit up in this deep underground dungeon, it caused the entire eastern cathedral to be submerged in white light.

This scene was seen by many people around the eastern cathedral, who all regarded it as a miracle.

And in the dungeon, the holy light was even more intense, so much so that the cardinal had to close his eyes.

That Holy Spirit did not close its eyes.

Under the illumination of such intense holy light, it finally found a trace, just a single trace!

That was the trace left behind when the first Holy Spirit was burned to nothing by the Abyss Demon Flame.

In the entire dungeon, there was only this one trace.

The second Abyss Demon Flame came from the power descended by Lin Yan, so naturally, it would not leave a single trace!

Although there was only one trace, for an existence like a Holy Spirit, this trace was already enough!

"Abyss Demon Flame!"

This Holy Spirit emitted a sharp voice, as if it were not yet accustomed to the language of the Gods Continent!

The holy light disappeared!

The Holy Spirit looked at the cardinal and said: "Seal the news. If the news leaks, you die!"

"The Grand Princess has defected to the Abyss Demon God?"

In the council chamber of the palace, the King of the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom received this news.

On his face, there was still an indifferent expression.

But ordinary people could not notice his changes at all.

Of course, by now, even if someone noticed, he would not care, because he had already mastered the overall situation!

"Princess Princess Princess Luoying of the royal family is also missing."

A high-ranking member of the church said.

"The Abyss Rift has been closed, and the power she obtained from the Abyss Demon God has been exhausted. At the seventh rank, she is not to be feared, but we have lost a powerful warrior. My God, should we send people to pursue?"

A Holy Spirit asked.

"No need, execute the purge plan."

The "King" of the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom said faintly.

It seemed that the seventh-rank Grand Princess and Princess Princess Princess Luoying were not in his considerations at all!

Beside him, an old man wearing a black robe who had been standing there said:

"Send people to spread the news of the Horton Kingdom's defeat and conscript an army from the nobles. The scale of the conscription must be large, so that the spies of the Horton Kingdom will know, and we..."

This old man looked around and said: "Strike tonight! Give the Horton Kingdom a big surprise, so that even if their god wants to descend a Holy Spirit, they won't find a suitable container! Without a Holy Spirit, relying solely on the power descended by their god, they cannot win against us!"

After speaking, he raised his hand: "Fight for my God!"

In the council chamber, everyone raised their hands, the expressions on their faces exceptionally fanatical: "Fight for my God!"

"Princess Princess Princess Luoying, please come in. I didn't expect to see you again so soon!"

In the temple, the fox girl Qing Ling welcomed Princess Princess Princess Luoying in.

The fox girl Qing Ling noticed that Princess Princess Princess Luoying's face was weary, and Ning Cui and the Grand Princess beside her were no better off.

After Princess Princess Princess Luoying arrived at the City of Miracles, her heart inexplicably calmed down.

It was as if this place could give her the greatest sense of security.

And seeing the flames in the temple, the sense of security in her heart became even more sufficient.

This was the temple of the Lord of Flames!

In Princess Princess Princess Luoying's view, this should be the safest place in the world.

"Queen, I hope to get your help."

After Princess Princess Princess Luoying walked into the temple, she took the initiative to explain her purpose.

She did not hide anything and told everything that happened in the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom one by one.

After she finished speaking, two or three hours had already passed.

After the fox girl Qing Ling listened patiently, she said: "Princess Princess Princess Luoying, you must be very tired, right? Go and rest first. I will discuss it with them, and I will give you an answer very soon!"

Princess Princess Princess Luoying nodded and said: "Mm!"

Princess Princess Princess Luoying also knew that this matter could not be rushed.

Even if the Lord of Flames had saved her, the help she needed now was the help of the Yan Kingdom sending troops!

Princess Princess Princess Luoying naturally knew that such a big matter could not be rushed in a moment.

So Princess Princess Princess Luoying and the Grand Princess came to the room arranged for them by the fox girl Qing Ling to rest.

The Grand Princess was still recovering her spirit.

After being possessed by the Holy Spirit, the impact on her soul was great, and there was quite a bit of damage to her spirit, which required a lot of time to recover.

Once she finished recovering, she would be able to smoothly enter the eighth rank.

"Princess Princess Luoying, I understand what you mean now. The Lord of Flames is probably truly a deity with subversive power."

The Grand Princess stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking down, and said.

Compared to Princess Princess Princess Luoying, the Grand Princess could be considered well-traveled.

She had walked through no fewer than ten countries.

There were even exceptionally huge countries.

However, she had never seen a city like the City of Miracles.

Some cities could be on par with the City of Miracles in terms of beauty, especially some holy cities that planted a large number of flowers and were full of devout believers.

But the City of Miracles was not just beautiful.

Everything inside was vastly different from those cities.

This made the Grand Princess feel that this holy city, built under the inspiration of the Lord of Flames, was also a manifestation of the philosophy of the Lord of Flames.

The more one sees and the stronger one's power, the less likely one is to contribute one's faith.

The Grand Princess had not contributed her faith until now.

It was precisely because she had always been unwilling to contribute her faith that she went to a distant country to study, so as to avoid the royal family and the church of the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom from having an unpleasant falling out because of her.

However, she did not expect that she had avoided it when she was young.

Yet, decades later, the royal family and the church of the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom still had a falling out because of her.

This falling out was a fatal blow to the royal family of the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom.

No matter how strong the royal family was, it was only a secular power.

And the church represented the gods.

How could secular power compete with the gods?

Especially that deity who lost in the divine war and, in order to keep their country on the Gods Continent from being taken away, could stop at nothing!

When studying in a distant country, the Grand Princess had researched many gods.

It was that kind of pure research.

But these gods all gave her similar feelings.

The deeds were similar, the stories passed down were similar, and what they did was actually similar.
