Chapter 316

After all, everyone wanted to be the one to obtain the inheritance and become the only Saint or Saintess of their respective religion, so that the resources they obtained in the future could be tilted to the greatest extent, and their right to speak in the future would increase.

That is, like Lu Li and Yan Yuexin, although they represented the Flame Spirit Sect, they were not Saintess candidates and guardian knights belonging to the Flame Spirit Sect; regardless of whether this inheritance trial was successful, they would return to the Ancient Kingdom after it ended.

It was under such a premise that there was an opportunity for cooperation. The biggest reason was naturally because there was no conflict of interest between the two sides.

*Nonsense, they are already going back to the Ancient Kingdom, what conflict could they have with others staying in the Holy See? *

Another point was Lu Li's strength. If there was no strength, Bei Xingyu and Qu Zhixuan wouldn't have made such an invitation.

It was a pity that Lu Li didn't have any plans for cooperation.

"In that case, be careful next time," hearing the meaning in Lu Li's tone, and seeing that Yan Yuexin, as a Saintess candidate, didn't mean to refute, Qu Zhixuan and Bei Xingyu looked at each other and didn't say much, turning to leave.

Since Lu Li didn't have the idea of teaming up, they didn't need to pester him. And, remembering Daji from yesterday, Bei Xingyu felt that it was Lu Li's enemies who should mourn.

"Are we really leaving just like this?" After walking a distance, Qu Zhixuan suddenly asked.

"I knew you had a sharp tongue and a soft heart," Bei Xingyu wasn't surprised by Qu Zhixuan's sudden speech: "Then let's watch here; if it really reaches a dangerous moment, we'll help the other party."

Although Qu Zhixuan challenged Yan Yuexin when they first met, in fact, that was because the other party was the daughter of her idol Yan Qinyun.

In fact, Qu Zhixuan was the type with a sharp tongue and a soft heart; Bei Xingyu knew this very well.

"I actually don't want to be easily defeated by someone, just to be eliminated like this." Saying this, Bei Xingyu had already brought Qu Zhixuan to find a good viewing point, where they could see Lu Li and Yan Yuexin's situation without being easily discovered by others.

*Two fists are hard to beat four hands*, ten-star Magic Card Spirits are very strong, but the inheritance trial has a characteristic: if the Saint and Saintess candidates, who are the main objects, have problems, they will also be eliminated.

Those people could completely bypass Lu Li and attack Yan Yuexin directly; the result would be the same.

"You're talking about me, aren't you also holding the same plan?" Muttering in a low voice, when Bei Xingyu turned his head, Qu Zhixuan had already returned to normal.

……

"Not gone far? They are really two interesting people." Although the location Bei Xingyu chose was very hidden, for Lu Li, it didn't make much difference; Sovereign Realm spiritual power was enough for him to easily perceive Bei Xingyu and Qu Zhixuan.

However, Lu Li just paid a little attention; after all, the focus next was not them.

"It seems that before fighting the vengeful spirits, we have to do some warm-up exercises." Withdrawing his gaze, Lu Li's eyes reflected the figures of many people: "It seems the Holy See people are really enthusiastic."

Regarding Lu Li's speech, Yan Yuexin couldn't help but roll her eyes.

However, this girl was very conscious and shrank behind Lu Li; she was in a blank state now, and in the upcoming melee, what she had to do was prioritize protecting herself and ensure she wouldn't become Lu Li's burden.

After all this was done, Lu Li and Yan Yuexin were surrounded by ten Holy See Magic Card Masters; these people were men and women, all Saint and Saintess candidates and their guardian knights, and the leader was none other than Yu Xunqin.

These ten Magic Card Masters clearly had their eyes on Lu Li and Yan Yuexin from the beginning—who let them be the only Magic Card Masters from the Ancient Kingdom participating in the inheritance trial, and outsiders at that?

Of course, this was just one reason, more was because the Pope's attention to Lu Li and Yan Yuexin exceeded theirs, which made them very unhappy.

As for Yu Xunqin's reason, it was even simpler: Yan Yuexin's appearance snatched her limelight, it was just that simple and unpretentious.

Don't forget, this operation was organized by her.

……

"The inheritance trial has just begun, and you intend to attack our Flame Spirit Sect's Saintess candidate?" In the back mountain, seeing this scene through the light screen, Yan Zhen's eyes carried a trace of unkindness: "It seems your Saints and Saintesses are very confident."

Although Yan Yuexin was from the Ancient Kingdom, she was his great-granddaughter after all, and she was also a Saintess candidate representing their Flame Spirit Sect in the inheritance trial.

Now that the inheritance trial had just begun, Yan Qian and Lu Li were being targeted like this, which clearly meant they didn't put their Flame Spirit Sect in their eyes.

More importantly, Yan Zhen was also unsure whether Lu Li could handle the current situation while protecting Yan Yuexin.

Although the other party won in the sparring with Bei Xingyu, Yan Zhen didn't watch the whole process, so he didn't know what level Lu Li's combat power could reach.

595. Direct confrontation

Regarding this slightly dissatisfied speech from Yan Zhen, the gazes of many Popes in the secluded valley couldn't help but change slightly, especially the Popes of the religions to which Yu Xunqin and others belonged.

Although the choices made by each Saint and Saintess candidate after entering the Bone Burial Ground were not subject to anyone's interference, they would still affect the outside world.

These Popes didn't think there was any problem with the choices of their own Saint and Saintess candidates, but unfortunately, Yan Zhen's strength was stronger than theirs.

However, before these Popes could organize their language, someone took the lead to speak; in the scene, not everyone was afraid of Yan Zhen.

"The inheritance trial in the Bone Burial Ground is essentially a competition between various Saint and Saintess candidates; after all, there are only a few people who can finally pass the trial and obtain the inheritance."

"Naturally, what kind of competitive method these Saint and Saintess candidates choose is within the rules, and none of us have the right to interfere."

The one who spoke was the Pope of the Earth Spirit Sect, Di Tianyin, one of the six major religions, who enjoyed the same status as Yan Zhen in the Holy See.

As one of the six major religions, Di Tianyin was undoubtedly one of the candidates present who could not care about Yan Zhen's thoughts.

More importantly, Di Tianyin's personality was very upright, and she also upheld a fair way of handling things.

Even if the one being besieged now was not Lu Li and Yan Yuexin, but the Saint and Saintess candidates of their Earth Spirit Sect, Di Tianyin's thoughts wouldn't change.

Because in her view, this was within the rules, and as long as it was within the rules, others had no right to interfere, including her.

"Tianyin is right, Yan Zhen, although that is your great-granddaughter, don't forget, this is ultimately our Holy See's inheritance." As soon as Di Tianyin's voice fell, Shui Wugou, the Pope of the Water Spirit Sect among the six major religions, also spoke.

"As one of the Popes of the six major religions, Yan Zhen, do you hope that the one who finally obtains the inheritance is not our Holy See's Magic Card Master?"

"Of course, if your great-granddaughter chooses to stay in the Holy See after obtaining the Saintess inheritance, I believe many people present will raise both hands in favor."

Compared to Di Tianyin, Shui Wugou's speech was more direct; after all, water and fire don't mix, and the Water Spirit Sect and the Flame Spirit Sect had many conflicts daily.

Between the six major religions of the Holy See, it was not as harmonious as it appeared on the surface.

So-called religion, to put it bluntly, is just another explanation for power. As a Pope, everyone hopes their religion can grow bigger and stronger, which means they will ultimately damage the interests of others.

Even the so-called win-win, broken down, still means one side gets more benefits, which actually counts as damaging the interests of the other side.

Since religion is just another name for power, there is also an interest relationship between religions.

If one religion wants to develop further, it will inevitably affect the development of other religions; the six major religions are even more so.

Moreover, Shui Wugou's speech was completely from the standpoint of the Holy See, directly pointing out the core of the inheritance trial in the Bone Burial Ground, even Yan Zhen couldn't refute the other party on this point.

Of course, deep down, Yan Zhen naturally hoped that Yan Yuexin could obtain the Saintess inheritance; after all, no matter what, the other party was his great-granddaughter, and part of their Yan family's blood flowed in her body.

But, the root of the problem happened to be this point.

Yan Yuexin indeed possessed the blood of their Yan family, but the key was that the other party was not a Magic Card Master belonging to the Holy See, but a Magic Card Master belonging to the Ancient Kingdom.

Just as Shui Wugou said, if Yan Yuexin chose to stay in the Holy See to develop after obtaining the Saintess inheritance, it would naturally be a happy ending.

It was a pity that Yan Zhen knew this was obviously impossible.

Therefore, if Yan Zhen denied Shui Wugou, the rest of the people present would have to consider whether this Pope of the Flame Spirit Sect had any ulterior motives.

Because in this way, Yan Zhen, the Pope of the Flame Spirit Sect, was derelict in his duty to the Holy See.

But, this was only aimed at the Holy See side, and in the secluded valley, there were not only people from the Holy See.

"The Holy See's inheritance trial is aimed at Saint and Saintess candidates; in other words, as long as one has the candidate qualification, one has the opportunity to obtain the inheritance," at this time, it was undoubtedly most appropriate for Yan Qian to speak, and his words had no problems.

Yes, Yan Yuexin was indeed not a Magic Card Master of the Holy See, but who let her have the title of Saintess and be one of the Saintess candidates?

More importantly, who let the opening of the Bone Burial Ground require all Saint and Saintess candidates to be present?

On the scene, if you want to say who is least afraid of Shui Wugou, it is undoubtedly Yan Qian.

*Joke*, even if this is the Holy See's territory, he is the Domain Lord of the Ancient Kingdom, representing the Ancient Kingdom, and is at the same level as Shui Wugou, so naturally, he doesn't need to be afraid of the other party.

Not to mention, he had already reached a certain degree of consensus with the Pope just now, and Yan Qian's confidence had increased quite a bit.

Yan Yuexin and Lu Li were targeted just after they started, and Yan Qian could still be calm now, which was already considered holding his temper.

"And to be honest, I don't think just this many people will cause obstacles to Lu Li and Yuexin."

However, thinking of Lu Li, Yan Qian couldn't help but have a thought of watching a show in his heart; after all, Lu Li was an original Magic Card Creator, and also a limit King, his combat power couldn't be viewed with ordinary eyes.

Don't say it was just this many people, even if there were twice as many, I guess the final result would be Lu Li beating them until they were looking for teeth all over the floor.

This wave, how could he lose, sitting firmly on the fishing platform, right? At this moment, Yan Qian felt the comfort of information asymmetry.

However, not everyone knew Lu Li's perversion, and even Yan Zhen was kept in the dark, so after hearing Yan Qian's words, the Popes of the religions to which Yu Xunqin and others belonged all looked at Yan Qian indignantly.

Isn't the subtext of this guy saying that their own Saint and Saintess candidates, as well as the selected guardian knights, are incompetent? Did he really just confront them directly?

"Old Man Yan, confidence is a good thing, but no matter what, this is our Holy See's place, it's better to be low-key." Also unhappy with Yan Qian was Shui Wugou. The Popes of the other six major religions also had a trace of unhappiness on their faces, even Di Tianyin was no exception.

Here, it ultimately belonged to the Holy See's territory; Yan Qian's wave was truly outputting in the face.

596. Peacefully be a small transparent.

"Old Man Shui, then do you want to make a bet?" Raising his eyebrows, Yan Qian had long been unhappy with this guy; back when Yan Qinyun married into their Southern Domain Yan family, the Water Spirit Sect had made quite a few small moves.

Naturally, Yan Qian had no good feelings for Shui Wugou, and this time with the information asymmetry, he had to pit the other party no matter what.

"No!" Unfortunately, Shui Wugou could sit in the position of the Water Spirit Sect Pope, not only because of his powerful strength, but also because he was very shrewd and didn't fall into Yan Qian's trap.

*Nonsense*, this time in the team of Saint and Saintess candidates targeting Lu Li and Yan Yuexin, there was no one from their Water Spirit Sect at all; he could just enjoy the show, there was no need to bet with Yan Qian at all.

Moreover, because of the relationship between the Ancient Kingdom and the Holy See, the two had had no shortage of confrontations in the past, and Shui Wugou knew very well that Yan Qian was just an old shady guy.

With very little information, Shui Wugou was unwilling to take this risk. Of course, if the information were sufficient, perhaps it would be another development.

However, from this conversation, Shui Wugou could still smell something, that is, Yan Qian had great confidence in his great-granddaughter.

Or rather, he had great confidence in Lu Li, who was selected as the guardian knight, and this confidence came from his recognition of Lu Li's strength.

This also made Shui Wugou a bit curious about what level the strength of this Ancient Kingdom Magic Card Master could reach. ===== CHAPTER 317 =====
