Chapter 539: You Say Whether It Counts

This... just died?

Seeing Li Ang "stare" the Bishop of the Weighing Gold Sect to death with just one glance and look at them with fierce murderous intent, the remaining people in the room all trembled in unison.

The old man of the Ma Sai Ni family reacted first, kneeling down with a 'thud', just avoiding the invisible hand that was pinching toward his head.

"Spare my life! I'm not familiar with her!"

After he set a good example, the three-man group of the Bobby Laien family followed suit, kneeling down one after another with 'thuds', and the sound of begging for mercy rang out one after another.

"I don't know her either!"

"We really don't know what she did!"

"Duke! I am a person by the old Duke's side!"

It must be said that those who can climb to high positions in such a large family are almost all quick-witted. The three old men of the Bobby Laien family knelt faster than the other, and after they took the initiative to lower their height, that iconic small golden hair finally squeezed into Li Ang's vision.

Calling me Duke, and also having a head of golden hair...

Looking at the three rather sparse tops of heads in front of him, and recognizing that one of them was the butler by the old Duke's side, Li Ang couldn't help but be slightly startled, then subconsciously frowned tightly.

"You are actually from the Weighing Gold Sect?"

"No, no!"

Afraid that the three Bobby Laien people would sell them out, the old man of the Rose family rushed to speak first:

"We are not from the Weighing Gold Sect! We just asked her to help find someone! I am a Count of the Rose family! Duke! I have in-laws in your family!"

"Right, right, we have nothing to do with the Weighing Gold Sect."

"Yes, yes, we are all from the Bobby Laien family."

"I am the family head newly elected by the Bobby Laien family, he is the last remaining clan elder, we are all your people!"

"..."

Damn, I shouldn't have asked if I had known.

Looking at these three small... old golden hairs in front of him, Li Ang couldn't help but click his tongue in slight annoyance.

These three Bobby Laien golden hairs could escape the Bobby Laien Blood Night and not be directly killed by him with the help of 【Heart of Wild Ambition】, so they were naturally not the type who were extremely evil.

It's just that according to the Bobby Laien family's excellent average moral standard, these three, although not rotten to the core, were not half-good people either. At most, they could be considered bastards with a hint of humanity.

Although he really wanted to pretend he hadn't asked and send these few away, considering he still carried the suspicion of creating the Bobby Laien Blood Night, and the repeated demands of the Director before departure, Li Ang finally gave up this rather tempting plan and asked with unkind expression:

"So... is this still Rose Manor? Was it that Bishop of the Weighing Gold Sect who brought me back?"

"Yes, yes, she did it all!"

Seeing that Li Ang seemed to have given up the plan to make a move, the few old men in the room breathed a sigh of relief, then desperately threw the blame onto the headless corpse on the ground.

"You left a note and left, we just wanted to find you back, she was the one who insisted on doing this!"

"Right, right, she wanted to trick you into joining the Weighing Gold Sect, and then used that Cat Spirit to bring you over!"

"She must have coveted our... coveted the property of the Bobby Laien family under your name!"

"..."

From the somewhat chaotic descriptions of several old men, after understanding the general process, Li Ang said somewhat astonishedly:

"So, after being forcibly moved by her, I have the mark of the Weighing Gold Sect on me, and I count as a member of the Weighing Gold Sect?"

"This... we don't know either, but she did say so..."

"..."

Ridiculous... Although he had killed the Holy Spirit of the Weighing Gold Sect and had just killed a high-level Bishop, he had now directly obtained the status of a member of the Weighing Gold Sect... Shaking his head speechlessly, Li Ang opened the badge panel and looked at the Holy Spirit Badge that was flickering non-stop.

【Practitioner (Silver): Personally shot and killed a large number of evil heretics, spreading the prestige of the Weighing Gold Sect in the world. Your efforts have been deeply recognized by the believers and Holy Spirits of the Weighing Gold Sect】

【Wearing Effect: Significantly increase affinity with anomalous objects marked "Holy," reduce usage cost, and significantly strengthen usage effect】

【Advancement Route: Become a Bishop of a certain lineage of the Weighing Gold Sect, or preach your understanding of the doctrine to three thousand believers of the Weighing Gold Sect and obtain their recognition. This badge will automatically advance to the Gold Badge "Agent." Progress of preaching doctrine to believers: 0/3000】

【Hidden Characteristic (No need to wear): Because you are practicing the doctrine of the Weighing Gold Sect, your soul is becoming more firm and pure, making it easier to gain the favor of certain orderly existences】

"..."

Fine, this wave can be considered a blessing in disguise, saving him quite a bit of trouble.

After reading the advancement route of the 【Practitioner】 badge, Li Ang frowned again, then narrowed his eyes and looked at the old man with the rose emblem on his chest, saying with certainty:

"You lied just now, right?"

"I... I didn't..."

"You'd better not rush to deny it."

After looking at the rose emblem on the old man's chest, Li Ang said:

"Your Ma Sai Ni family and the Weighing Gold Sect have collusion; this has long been no secret. So after I left without saying goodbye, the three of them came to you for help. Am I right?"

"Actually, it's not help..."

Just then, the old butler reminded cautiously:

"Duke, in the matter of finding your whereabouts, Lord Sam asked for a high price, and also said it wasn't that he wanted it, but that he was helping that Bishop ask for it..."

"It hasn't been paid yet! That money hasn't been paid yet, I don't want anything now! And not only this time's, the money invested in Rose Department Store can also be returned to you!"

Having already seen that Leon was mostly at odds with the Scale-Weighing Sect, the old man of the Rose family said with a mournful face after promising to return all the money:

"Duke! Our family really doesn't have collusion with the Weighing Gold Sect, we just have some small cooperation usually, you must not..."

"I want to be a Bishop of the Weighing Gold Sect."

"Ah?"

Looking at the old man who had his mouth wide open and eyes full of bewilderment, Li Ang repeated patiently.

"Tell me, what do I need to do to become a Bishop of the Weighing Gold Sect?"

???

No... you killed the Bishop of others two minutes ago, and as soon as you heard that you were also a member of the Weighing Gold Sect, you changed camps without a second thought, not only accepted your new identity but also aspired to be a Bishop of the Weighing Gold Sect?

Is your adaptability too strong?

Looking at Li Ang, who was serious in front of him, and confirming that this new Lionheart Duke wasn't joking but really intended to do so, the old man's dry lips moved twice, then he said helplessly:

"This... the Weighing Gold Sect has three lineages in total, and each lineage can have at most three Bishops at the same time. If you want to become a Bishop, you must first obtain the joint recommendation of at least two Bishops, and they must be from different lineages, and then participate in three assemblies to obtain the recognition of the believers..."

"Too troublesome, is there any faster way?"

"Uh... that is the True God personally designates, or obtains the recognition of one of the... two Holy Spirits, and is stained with the aura belonging to them, which can also directly obtain the recognition of those people in the Weighing Gold Sect."

So that's how it is...

After listening to the words of the old man of the Rose family, Li Ang frowned slightly.

The True God personally designating is definitely impossible. He directly killed the other party's Holy Spirit. The probability of the True God of the Weighing Gold Sect personally killing him is higher than the probability of personally designating him as a Bishop. As for the Holy Spirit's recognition...

"Then like this, I ask you."

After touching the Holy Spirit Pendant on his chest, Li Ang asked seriously:

"If I killed a Holy Spirit, but made it into an... hmm... ornament, and wore it with me all the time, does it count as being stained with its aura? Can I get recognition?"
