Chapter 1727

"Half? What's the use of half? Don't you know what the weight of the Speaker's voting authority is? So what about you? What is the relationship between you and Xia De now?"

Audrey asked again. The balanced great witch didn't want to expose "that" secret yet, hoping to enjoy the delicious meat alone for a while:

"Our relationship, can't you see? Just like what you think, except for that matter, our relationship cannot be closer."

She put down her wine glass and wrapped her hands around Xia De's arm:

"I am the first witch to recognize Xia De. If no one else makes faster progress, I will not only be laughed at by Emma and the others, but also looked down upon by the witches of the Fifth Era."

"What does this have to do with the witches of the Fifth Era?"

Audrey asked suspiciously, and Miss Jia Jia Lin Na blinked at her:

"I'll tell you about this later, it's a very complicated matter. However, one thing can be explained—Xia De is indeed the God-Caller, you guessed it yourself. All the Chosen Ones so far have something to do with him."

"When you said that long list of titles just now, I guessed it... Is Iluna Beias also in a romantic relationship with him?"

She asked patiently, this matter is very important.

And hearing this question, Miss Jia Jia Lin Na couldn't help laughing. She wanted to open her mouth to evaluate her unnamed student, but Xia De saw that she wanted to tease Iluna, so he said first:

"Yes. Another female diviner and I helped Iluna complete the ritual of the Balanced Chosen One. You can think that except for betraying the church, Iluna is willing to do anything for me."

"Actually, betraying the church, Iluna might not necessarily be unable to discuss it."

The red-haired witch added in a low voice, and said again:

"The Chosen One of Darkness—Ivan Darkness, was killed by Xia De and Iluna together; the first Chosen One of Death, Joey Barton, lost his qualification because he was defeated by Xia De in death."

"Then what is the relationship between Sister Daifulin and Xia De? You wouldn't say that the sister who always has a cold face also took a fancy to Xia De, right?"

Audrey pursued, and the duchess thought for a moment:

"I really don't know Sister Daifulin's thoughts, but if you let her choose between the council and Xia De, she would definitely choose Xia De."

Audrey thought for a while and looked at Xia De unexpectedly:

"The flame you once attached to the chain was the Primordial Fire? You inherited the First Fire?"

"Yes."

"Then I understand. For the 【Spirit Cultivation Sect】, as long as you are not going to extinguish the First Fire, that Sister Daifulin is willing to do anything for you... Balance, Darkness, Death, followed by Knowledge. Oh, this doesn't need to be said, Xia De must have participated in the Battle of Pantanal, and the authority of Knowledge and Wisdom also disappeared. Finally, Earth. Isn't that 'Earth Guardian' a cold tool man like the earth? Except for Xiris..."

"... Lassus, because she is the daughter of one of those souls, can talk to him. Isn't it very difficult for others to take the initiative to approach them?"

Xia De explained simply:

"I helped the Earth Guardian solve a big trouble, ate some unclean things and purified the earth. I can tell you about this in detail later."

"In short, Megan, Audrey, that's the situation. Xia De is pursuing the Chosen One, and he has been doing well. Although I don't know what he wants to do, this does not conflict with the interests of the council."

The duchess sat there and reached out to the brown-haired girl opposite:

"Do you want to report Xia De to the council? Or do you want to join us and keep this secret together?"

"How could I do anything detrimental to Xia De?"

Audrey asked back, looked at Miss Jia Jia Lin Na's hand, and asked hesitantly:

"So, the first girl Xia De once said he met... is you?"

"I'm not that lucky."

Talking about this topic, the duchess was also a bit melancholy:

"It was a girl with beautiful purple eyes. Although her level is not high, her methods are quite powerful. If there is a chance in the future, you can meet her."

So two hands held together. Xia De watched this scene and breathed a sigh of relief, but he still said:

"Megan, Audrey, it is indeed my fault for hiding from you that I knew about the witches for so long. I'm very sorry."

"I think someone else should say sorry to me."

Audrey looked at Miss Jia Jia Lin Na, who asked with a smile:

"I also feel that someone should say sorry to me. After all, Xia De is my knight, but someone..."

Bang!

The sudden sound stopped Miss Jia Jia Lin Na from speaking. It was a gunshot. They looked at the direction of the banquet hall downstairs at the same time. The duchess closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then signaled Xia De and Megan not to worry:

"Before leaving Tobeisk, I knew this trip wouldn't go smoothly, but I didn't expect it to happen on the second day... You wait for me here, I'll go handle it."

Saying that, she stood up and left quickly.

And just after the door closed, Audrey stood up, walked around the coffee table, and sat beside Xia De. Her golden eyes looked at Xia De, and the guilty Xia De pursed her lips:

"I..."

"I don't care about this. You are so upright and loyal, this matter must be Jia Jia Lin Na's idea."

She reached out and hugged Xia De:

"Now I understand why you said you wanted to tell me your identity today. This is really good, even better than I thought."

Xia De also hugged her, but in his heart, he was still thinking about finding a way to formally apologize. She was really not lightly angry just now.

But just at this time, the window on the side wall of the lounge was knocked open with a bang. Then a man wearing a black coat and a clown mask, holding a rope, swung into the room from the window.

He rolled neatly on the carpet to unload the impact. After standing up, he saw the hugging man and woman looking at him in shock.

This was an ordinary person. He obviously didn't expect that there were people here. When he reached out to take out a gun, Xia De had already raised his gun and stood up first:

"Military Intelligence 6? Or Grey Glove?"

Xia De repeated this sentence in Delarion and Karsen-Rik respectively, but the stranger who broke into the room naturally wouldn't answer. The stranger decisively took out a pistol, aimed at the front, and then threw away the gun in a scream, because the flying dinner knife pierced his entire right hand.

He stumbled back a few steps, then turned and grabbed the rope and jumped out of the window. There was no chance for him to jump to the roof of other buildings around the manor mansion, but there seemed to be someone upstairs who pulled the rope directly upwards.

"I'll follow and take a look."

Xia De said, and Audrey also stood up:

"I'll go with you, I just want to vent my emotions. I want to see who it is this time."

Illusions covered their bodies, and then Xia De turned into a red butterfly, and Audrey turned into a stream of light and flew out of the window together.

The rope happened to pull the man to the roof at this time, so the two also came to the roof together and saw the man with the dinner knife still stuck in his hand being supported by a guest wearing a black top hat and a tuxedo, who was obviously also here to attend the banquet.

The man wearing the black top hat looked about thirty years old, and his appearance was a bit feminine. He was a 7th-ring or 8th-ring ring sorcerer. Although he failed to discover the butterfly swarm and stream of light under the moonlight, he immediately got clues from his companion:

"Run, there's someone in the lounge!"

The man in the top hat didn't think, first took out a transparent silver cloth to cover the two, and after becoming invisible, grabbed his companion and flew into the air.

For ring sorcerers, flying is not a rare ability. Even as they enter high rings, even if they don't specifically learn flying abilities, they will gradually master similar skills. For example, Xia De's red butterfly incarnation, although he flies slowly relying on this, it is safer than ordinary flying abilities. Therefore, seeing the other party flying at this time, Xia De was not very surprised.

"Shadow Ball."

The red butterfly gathered into Xia De in the air. The night hid the shadow ball, which flew silently towards the two in the air.

The man in the tuxedo seemed to sense something and turned to release a transparent shield forward, but as Audrey, standing in the air, cut out a light mark with her finger, the shield broke neatly. The shadow ball flew towards the ring sorcerer's back, but the other party directly blocked his injured companion behind him, taking the sorcery for himself.

Amidst the clattering sound, the Great Sin Chain had already rushed into the sky at some point. As Xia De, whose feet touched the rooftop floor, pulled hard, the man in the top hat finally fell down and was firmly tied by the second Great Sin Chain waiting on the ground.

"I'll do it."

Audrey stood in front of Xia De, so Xia De nodded and took back the chain.

Among the two who landed, the ordinary person was hit by the 【Shadow Ball】, and the falling corpse stone sculpture had split into two. The man in the tuxedo climbed up in a mess and summoned his life ring without hesitation.

The 7th-ring life ring appeared in the steam fog, and the blasphemy—【Strife】 and enlightenment—【Victory】 bloomed with spiritual light together.

He held his hands together, and the escaping light formed a double-barreled hunting rifle like crystal material.

"Hurry up, this is Rose Manor, the church people are coming."

Xia De said softly, Audrey flicked her hair, not even summoning her life ring, and two overlapping voices sounded together:

"Knowledge is..."

The glowing right fist swung forward, and then two giant diamond-like fists appeared on the left and right of the man who was about to pull the trigger of the hunting rifle:

"Power!"

After a muffled sound, the floating metal life ring shattered and dissipated in the steam fog. The 11th-level great witch took a deep breath, waved her hand to let the dinner knife fly into her hand, and then left the roof with Xia De. Less than five seconds later, the roof door was opened, and the church's ring sorcerer team arrived here, but only saw the shattered stone statue and the man who was crushed flat.
