Chapter 572: She wants to repent too much! (Seeking subscriptions)

Li Chen had established enough prestige in this area, so he decided to continue south.

After Alfred and Old Castro heard the news, they were both excited, because that heavy city in the south was the core territory of the Old Castro family.

Early in the morning, a mighty team set off from the city gate.

At the very front were twenty Holy See knights in silver armor, holding flags embroidered with golden crosses.

In the middle was Li Chen's gilded carriage pulled by six pure white horses.

Behind were the guard teams of Alfred and the Old Castro family, with a full three hundred people.

On both sides of the team were accompanying servants, maids, and several gorgeous carriages carrying female family members.

Along the way, Lady Ophelia behaved abnormally piously.

Whenever the team stopped to rest, she would be the first to kneel in Li Chen's carriage to "repent."

Sometimes it was in the forest clearing, sometimes on the stone beach by the stream, and traces of her "repentance" were left everywhere.

Her plump body was always wrapped in the most conservative black dress, but the exaggerated curves when kneeling still made all the guards unable to look away.

Now, her eyes when looking at Li Chen were different. She had no temperament of a Holy Descendant lady at all, completely like Li Chen's servant.

"Personal Guard, please forgive my sins." Ophelia's voice was sweet enough to drip honey, and those blue eyes that were once proud were now full of obsession.

Guinevere and Sophia stood on the side, biting their handkerchiefs in jealousy.

They couldn't figure out how Ophelia could be so favored, but Ophelia was their mother-in-law after all, so they couldn't say anything.

Five days later, the majestic city wall finally appeared on the horizon.

This northern heavy town named "Shenghuicheng" was breathtaking in scale.

The city wall was thirty zhang high, stretching for dozens of miles, with eight giant city gates spitting out crowds of people day and night.

The most eye-catching were the crisscrossing rail trains in the city. Although they were still in the trial operation stage, one could already see the potential for future development.

When the team approached the city gate, more than a dozen bishops in blue robes had already lined up to wait.

Behind them were hundreds of choir children, singing sacred songs with heavenly voices.

"Respectfully welcoming the Personal Guard to Shenghuicheng!" The leading bishop bowed deeply, his snow-white beard almost hanging to the ground.

Li Chen got off the carriage and went to the largest "Holy Light Cathedral" in the city surrounded by the crowd.

The dome of this cathedral was a hundred zhang high, and the interior could accommodate ten thousand people praying at the same time. When Li Chen stood on the gilded lecture platform to preach, the colorful sunlight sprinkled on him through the stained glass, like a miracle descending.

"Holy Light exists not only in the church but also in everyone's heart..." Li Chen's voice seemed to carry magic, making the believers below tear up.

After the ritual, the bishops tried their best to invite Li Chen to stay in the church.

But Li Chen declined: "I have more important work to guide the lost souls."

Li Chen certainly couldn't say, there's nothing fun here, how boring.

These words were said in a high-sounding way, making the bishops moved.

As expected of the Pope's personal guard, his consciousness is just so high!

Some bishops had even started taking small notes, treating what Li Chen said as sacred words.

Li Chen went to enjoy these special services happily.

Under the guidance of Old Castro, the team came to the family territory in the north of the city.

This place was not so much a manor as it was a small city.

Inside the high walls, more than a dozen buildings were distributed in an orderly manner, and the main castle in the center was even more magnificent. ===== CHAPTER 573 =====
