Chapter 584: His Majesty the Pope is indeed far-sighted

"Personal Guard Lord, a Cardinal has come from outside wanting to visit you." Just as Li Chen stepped out of the confession room, Carlos, who had been playing the most loyal dog, greeted him.

"Cardinal?" Li Chen raised his eyebrows slightly; since coming to Holy Radiance City, his reputation and prestige had become increasingly loud due to a series of coincidences.

Although he knew that facing the Holy See's high-level was only a matter of time, Li Chen still had no bottom in his heart.

After all, Cardinals were a batch of people at the top of the Holy See's pyramid; maybe they could see through some flaws in him, it wasn't impossible.

"Yes, the bishop is accompanied by a nun." Speaking of the nun, Carlos showed an expression that every man understood.

Li Chen nodded slightly in an understated manner: "Bring them to the study."

At this moment, Li Chen's understanding of the Holy See was fundamentally different from the past; whether it was the Holy Light cultivated by the Holy See or the understanding of the gods believed in by the Holy See, he was already clear about them, and it could be considered able to withstand scrutiny.

Soon, an old man wearing a red church robe, with a monocle hanging on his face and white hair full of scholarly aura, walked into the study with a nun who was "fruitful."

The nun had silver-white hair, and under her high-bridged nose, a pair of emerald-blue eyes were full of coldness; coupled with the straight curves wrapped in white silk under the silver nun habit, she gave people a strange sense of taboo.

Seeing Li Chen, she was slightly stunned, her cold eyes full of disbelief.

This person was none other than Linna, who had met Li Chen once in the Fallen Immortal Mountains!

When the Cardinal saw Li Chen, a strange look also flashed in his eyes, but he still performed a standard Holy See salute to Li Chen neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Respected Personal Guard Lord, I am Ludwig, the Cardinal stationed in Holy Court City; I represent the church members of Holy Court City in welcoming your arrival!"

Not for anything else, just because Li Chen's face was a standard May Tian Ce face!

Since ancient times, the Holy See had no precedent of May Tian Ce people serving as Personal Guards, but the Pope's desire to preach to May Tian Ce recently was not a secret among the high-level.

And this guy was indeed wearing the purple crystal token bestowed by the Pope; this Ludwig could be certain it was indeed given by the Pope; could it be that someone could snatch it?

So Ludwig couldn't be sure of Li Chen's background and had the thought of wanting to probe him.

"Mm." Li Chen nodded with a smile as a response, not appearing very enthusiastic, nor very cold.

"This is Steward Linna, a steward in our Holy See, and also a nun." Ludwig introduced Linna beside him with a smile.

The full figure outlined by the nun habit and the simple, cold personality had a different kind of taboo temptation for men.

"Personal Guard Lord, thank you for your life-saving grace in the Fallen Immortal Mountains." Linna performed a salute with a normal face, not caring at all about the visual impact of the "fruits" that the nun habit couldn't hide when she bent over.

"Just a small effort." Li Chen appreciated Linna with a focused mind.

Linna felt Li Chen's straight gaze, without any shy emotions, as flat as if she were looking at a blank sheet of paper.

She was a representative of those who wholeheartedly believed in the Holy See and had no desires, but she had a rule-breaking figure.

Hearing Linna say this, Ludwig pushed the monocle on the bridge of his nose, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Oh? There is such a thing?"

Linna bowed slightly, her curves beneath the silver nun's habit appearing and disappearing with the movement: "Reporting to the Bishop, that day when I was pursuing the traitor in the Fallen Xianshan Range, I encountered an ambush. If it hadn't been for the Personal Guard's timely intervention—"

She recounted the situation that day, her voice cold but not lacking respect.

Ludwig finally understood that when he went to Tian Ce to pursue the traitor last time, he had encountered danger and been separated from his subordinate Linna; it turned out Linna had also encountered danger, and it was Li Chen who had saved her.

Ludwig "realized" that Li Chen was the "dark piece" the Pope left in May Tian Ce, so having the purple crystal token was reasonable.

After all, even Ludwig couldn't ask the Pope, who did you give the purple crystal token to, what is its purpose; all this was perhaps the Pope's arrangement. ===== CHAPTER 585 =====
