Chapter 374

"I didn't expect you to actually succeed," almost as soon as he returned to the outside, the Pope's voice came to Lu Li's ears, filled with exclamation.

Although from the series of performances just now, and the power of faith covering the other party and replacing the original solar power, the Pope understood that Lu Li had really succeeded, but seeing this scene in front of him still touched him deeply.

He didn't expect that this young Magic Card Master from the ancient kingdom would bring him such a big surprise again and again, actually doing something that even Wu Zhao couldn't do.

702. The Misunderstanding Supreme, Returning to the Flame Spirit Sect

It seems this Pope has misunderstood!

Hearing the Pope's words, such a thought flashed through Lu Li's mind; there was no need to think to know that the other party probably thought he had mastered the power of faith.

But in reality, Lu Li knew clearly that he could mobilize the power of faith purely because he shared the Faith Divinity with Celestin and Tiamat.

However, since the Pope misunderstood, there was no need for him to explain; these were his secrets after all.

Therefore, Lu Li just smiled slightly: "Maybe it's because my luck is better."

"Do you think I will believe your explanation?" However, facing Lu Li's explanation, the Pope couldn't help but roll his eyes; this absolutely couldn't be explained by the three words "good luck."

In fact, this couldn't even be explained by the two words "luck"; Lu Li definitely had other secrets, otherwise, he couldn't have done something that even they, the Supremes, and even Wu Zhao in the past, couldn't do.

However, although the Pope was very curious about this, he didn't continue to ask; it wouldn't be appropriate to keep asking.

After all, everyone had their own secrets; Lu Li was like this, and the Pope himself was also like this.

What's more, Lu Li had just solved the problem of the barrier of faith for him, so the Pope wouldn't go so far as to burn the bridge after crossing it now.

Moreover, since Lu Li could now hold both solar power and the power of faith, did that mean that Lu Li could also hold a third, or even more, ultimate powers?

If it were in the past, the Pope would have felt it was unlikely, but after Lu Li mastered the power of faith, it became possible!

Thinking of this, the Pope looked forward to Lu Li's future growth even more.

Although it was a pity that the other party was not a Magic Card Master of the Holy See, compared to the other party's identity, the Pope cared more about the top-tier powerhouses possessed by the Magic Card civilization, in order to deal with the invasion of extraterrestrial beasts in the future.

"Alright, since your matter has been handled, then I will take you back first; I imagine Yan Qian and the others are waiting very anxiously, after all, you have been out for nearly ten days this time." Collecting his thoughts, the Pope raised his hand and waved, and a teleportation light gate appeared in front of the two.

Through the teleportation light gate, one could see that the outside was the Temple of Faith; as long as one crossed the teleportation gate, one could leave the sanctuary.

"Ten days have already passed?" Looking at the scenery outside the teleportation gate, a trace of surprise flashed across Lu Li's face; he didn't expect so much time to have passed.

However, in just ten days, he unlocked the system's new hidden permission, completed the Ultraman worldview, Celestin and Tiamat took this opportunity to obtain the Faith Divinity, and he himself could mobilize a portion of the power of faith by relying on the shared Faith Divinity; such gains could be said to exceed expectations.

To be honest, this trip to the Holy See was a huge profit for Lu Li.

Therefore, he didn't say much about the Pope's proposal, but silently crossed the teleportation gate and left the sanctuary.

Having had no news for such a long time, Yan Qian and the others were indeed likely waiting anxiously. Even with the twin inheritance, Yan Yuexin could sense his situation, but she had no way of knowing the specifics.

A moment later, the Pope brought Lu Li back to the Flame Spirit Sect.

"Let's stop here; I won't go in, lest they get nervous." However, before entering the Flame Spirit Sect, the Pope stopped.

However, the guards near the Flame Spirit Sect didn't seem to notice the two, or rather, they subconsciously ignored their appearance, so they didn't know that the strongest person of the Holy See was appearing here now.

Clearly, this was the Pope's ability; perhaps the other party also didn't want to cause too much of a stir because of his appearance.

"Lu Li, although you are not a Magic Card Master of the Holy See, I still look forward to your growth very much; I hope you won't let us down."

The Pope's tone seemed to contain other deep meanings, but Lu Li understood what the other party meant.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty the Pope, I definitely won't let you down." After all, if the Magic Card civilization really perished under the invasion of extraterrestrial beasts, it would be of no benefit to Lu Li either.

Even if he wanted to avoid this point, he couldn't avoid it.

Moreover, Lu Li also had great confidence in the Magic Card Spirits he held; when the strength of these Magic Card Spirits reached its peak, their strength would definitely not be inferior to any extraterrestrial beast, even if the other party was a Star Eater.

"Since that's the case, then I will look forward to your performance." As the voice fell, the Pope's figure had already vanished.

He also had his own matters to deal with, especially since the barrier of faith defense of the sanctuary had been broken; Lu Li had essentially solved quite a few things for him in advance, and he would be busy next.

"Then, I should go in too; I can't let them worry too much anymore." As the Pope left, Lu Li's figure gradually appeared in the vision of all the guards.

Seeing a figure suddenly appear in their vision, the guards in this area couldn't help but be stunned, and then subconsciously tightened up.

This was the headquarters of the Flame Spirit Sect, and having such a person suddenly appear in all of their visions was indeed easy to make people suspicious.

However, upon seeing clearly that the person who suddenly appeared was Lu Li, these Flame Spirit Sect guards relaxed again.

Although Lu Li was not a Magic Card Master of the Flame Spirit Sect, or even a Magic Card Master of the Holy See, after nearly half a month, these guards basically knew of his existence.

Not to mention, the other party had also participated in the trial of the Bone Burial Ground on behalf of the Flame Spirit Sect some time ago, and had also obtained the inheritance.

Although it was a pity that the other party didn't belong to the Flame Spirit Sect, the Flame Spirit Sect members were still happy to see the teams of other religions suffer.

Besides this, during this time, they had vaguely heard rumors that the Pope of their religion seemed to care very much about Lu Li.

Therefore, they didn't have the idea of blocking Lu Li, just nodded to Lu Li, and then let the other party enter the Flame Spirit Sect.

"You're finally back!" Almost the moment Lu Li stepped into the Flame Spirit Sanctuary, a fragrant breeze directly attacked, and a warm-as-jade figure threw herself into his arms, and Yan Yuexin's voice followed, from which one could hear her worry.

703. The Journey Home, A Grown Daughter Cannot Be Kept

"Don't worry, I'm fine," slightly stunned, Lu Li then hugged Yan Yuexin to comfort her: "As for you, you seem even more nervous than me."

I don't know if it was because of the influence of the Twin Saint inheritance, or if Yan Yuexin had always cared about him very much, but Lu Li could feel that after not seeing each other for this short time, the other party had become more dependent on him?

"It's fine as long as you're okay, don't think too much." Seeming to sense that her performance was too sensitive, Yan Yuexin subconsciously retorted, then wanted to leave Lu Li's arms.

Unfortunately, Lu Li didn't intend to let the girl leave just like that, instead hugging her even tighter: "It's too late to run, little girl."

"Grandfather and Mother are coming out," being hugged by Lu Li and unable to leave, especially thinking that others were probably coming out soon, Yan Yuexin's face instantly dyed with a blush, very beautiful.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore." Seeing this, Lu Li was also amused, then released the girl, changing to hugging her slender waist.

Yan Yuexin also knew she had no chance to run away, puffed her cheeks, and her little hand quietly twisted around Lu Li's waist.

Good guy, could it be that you all learned this skill?

Feeling the stinging pain from his waist, Lu Li couldn't help but feel puzzled; he found that no matter who it was, it seemed they all knew this trick, including Magic Card Spirits like Mana and Kisara; once they were too shy, they would all make such movements.

However, having encountered it many times, Lu Li naturally had his own way of dealing with it; without any hesitation, instinctively, Lu Li directly slapped Yan Yuexin's buttocks.

"Bastard!" Being slapped on a sensitive spot again, Yan Yuexin's face turned red again.

But at this time, the girl dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, because Regarding Yan Zhen and Yan Qian and others had already come out; if she provoked the other party again, Yan Yuexin didn't know what Lu Li would do next time.

Based on her understanding of Lu Li, the other party could really do it. At that time, she would really be socially dead.

"Lu Li, didn't His Majesty the Pope come back with you?" Coming to the front, although he felt that the current actions of the two were a bit strange, Regarding Yan Zhen didn't think much and asked first.

At the same time, his gaze also quickly scanned this area, fearing that he had missed some Supreme.

Originally, he thought His Majesty the Pope would come back with Lu Li, but now it seemed that was not the case.

He didn't perceive any aura of the Pope.

"His Majesty the Pope did come back with me, but he had matters to deal with, so he left a step ahead." Lu Li replied casually.

He naturally knew why the Pope left so quickly; after all, the barrier of faith of the sanctuary had been broken, and the other party definitely had a lot to be busy with next.

However, he felt there was no need for him to say these things, and even if he were to say them, it shouldn't be him saying them, but the Pope.

As for whether Regarding Yan Zhen could guess what the Pope was doing, that was not something Lu Li cared about.

"Is that so?" Hearing Lu Li's explanation, Regarding Yan Zhen nodded silently and didn't continue to ask.

Regardless, the Pope's departure was a fact, and even if he had all kinds of conjectures and doubts in his heart, he could only hide them in his heart.

Although he guessed why the Pope sought out Lu Li, it didn't mean he could ask to the bottom of it without any scruples, especially when this involved a Supreme Realm powerhouse.

If it wasn't handled well, who knows what kind of mess it would cause.

Besides, since Lu Li had returned safely now, he could be considered to have given an explanation to Yan Qian and the others, so there was even less need for him to get entangled in this matter.

As for whether there were any other agreements between His Majesty the Pope and Lu Li, that was not something Regarding Yan Zhen could intervene in, nor was it something he could intervene in.

"Alright, since Lu Li is back now, after preparing, we should leave too." Beside Regarding Yan Zhen, Yan Qian spoke suddenly.

Just in that moment, this Southern Region Lord had also scanned Lu Li once and didn't find anything unusual about the other party.

This also made Yan Qian breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

However, he didn't intend to stay here any longer; who knew what kind of mess would happen next.

Therefore, it was best to leave early and return to the ancient kingdom early.

Moreover, this trip to the Holy See took more time than expected, which also meant that after they returned to the Southern Region, they might need to spend more time dealing with the things that had piled up during this time.

"Leaving so soon?" Hearing Yan Qian's words, Regarding Yan Zhen couldn't help but frown: "This is the territory of the Flame Spirit Sect; here, no one dares to mess around."

"Moreover, you didn't not hear the reminder the Pope made, and plus Lu Li is back, even if you stay here for a few more days before leaving, it's no problem."

"That may be so, but this is the Holy See after all," unfortunately, facing Regarding Yan Zhen's retention, Yan Qian slowly shook his head.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Regarding Yan Zhen, but just as he said, this was not the ancient kingdom, but the Holy See; for them, there was still a big difference between the two.

Moreover, Yan Qian was not used to entrusting his safety to others, or rather, no powerhouse liked this.

More importantly, Lu Li's performance in the inheritance trial was too dazzling; even if they didn't dare to mess around on the surface, who knew if someone would take the risk and strike in the dark. ===== CHAPTER 375 =====
