Chapter 326: Starfall Loyalty Tribunal
Chapter 326: Starfall Loyalty Tribunal
For some reason, William felt relieved in his heart. He didn't seem to want to be an enemy of the magician opposite, at least not now. Although it seemed that it would be as easy for him to crush the opponent to death as to crush an ant, he subconsciously didn't want to do so. Even when he thought about it, he had a faint sense of danger. This feeling was inexplicable, but he knew that for strong people of their level, there was no such thing as a sixth sense. This was an intuition that had been confirmed by countless life-and-death crises, almost like prophecy. Of course, only the Pope could have the real great prophecy. Thinking of this, the faint sense of danger disappeared with the wind, as if it had never appeared.
Xing Luo looked at William opposite him with a big smile on his face. The other party didn't let him wait too long. "This time, your action of helping the poor seems to be a bit too much. This has always been done by the Holy See of Light. If this was not the Fallen God Empire, you would have probably been killed by the Holy See of Light."
Xingluo's face was full of surprise, and at that moment there was confusion, doubt, shock, etc. Even William saw for the first time that a person could have so many expressions in an instant, which made him almost forget what to say next. Fortunately, he had been in a high position for a long time and still reacted. He looked at Xingluo with some amusement and continued: "Of course, it is understandable that you rescued the people in the territory, but after all, this is the world of the God of Light, and the God of Light needs faith. I hope this will be the last time. If there is a next time, even if someone pleads for you, your situation will be very dangerous."
Xingluo was shocked. It seemed that the Holy See of Light was finally dissatisfied with him. He had been passive in preaching before, and this time he had hindered the development of the Holy See of Light. But who was interceding for him? Xingluo was a little confused, but he didn't ask the other party at this time. He didn't have any good feelings towards the Holy See of Light, but he could still understand the Inquisition. It was either black or white here, and they were strong and said what they wanted. It was much better than those hypocritical bishops.
Xingluo came here today wearing a cardinal robe. He subconsciously straightened his clothes and said, "I just want to help the people in my hometown feel less cold and hungry. I haven't done anything else. Please make the decision for me, Lord William. I will follow your lead."
Xingluo's words were very strange. He did not quibble or deny, but directly expressed his loyalty to William, not to the Church of Light. Although to outsiders, the Inquisition and the Pope were both from the Church of Light, but wherever there are people, there are struggles. Xingluo, who controls one of the largest intelligence organizations in the alien continent, also knows a thing or two about the contradictions within the Church.
William glanced at Xingluo with a playful expression at this time, but something seemed to have touched him, and he subconsciously fell into deep thought. The place was already depressing, and without any sound, Xingluo felt a little cold. The other party was very powerful, second only to the Pope. He did not have the ability to escape from this level of power without using the Divine Flame Crystal. Compared to the Pope, he preferred to deal with people like William.
I don’t know how long it took before William said again: “Okay, it’s okay, go away, remember what you said today.”
The other party did not ask Xingluo to remember that sentence, but Xingluo understood that the other party was tacitly acquiescing to his loyalty. Xingluo once again bowed deeply and took two steps forward to stuff a ring into William's hand. William frowned and was about to refuse, but when his mental power detected the things in the ring, he gasped and retracted his hand. After hesitating for a long time, he put the ring away and looked at Xingluo who was already far away on the opposite side. He realized that the other party had gone far away and he had never returned the ring to the other party. It was really too much. Even with his identity, he had never seen so many good things. Some of them were even what he had sent people to find for a long time. Thinking of this, William frowned even more tightly. The other party seemed to have investigated him as well.
After Xingluo came out, he found the air was so fresh, the blue sky, and the birds flying freely passed through his sight. He then realized that his back was soaked. Even though he was a time and space magician, he was still not good enough in front of the strong men of the continent. He was now thirsty for power again. The last time it was for revenge, and this time it was for the ability to protect the people around him, or at least to have the ability to say no to those big forces, not only the Holy See of Light, but also those hidden families.
After Xingluo came back, he found Xi. The other party seemed to still have some temper, but seeing Xingluo's expression, Xi did not reject Xingluo and told Xingluo all the information about the ruins and the divine flame crystal. After hearing this news, Xingluo's frown relaxed a little. It seems that the cat royal family has not been lazy in the past two years, but has been meticulously carrying out the tasks assigned by themselves. Xingluo asked Xi with some curiosity: "Can you also turn into a human form?"
Xi: "You mean cat girl?"
Xingluo scratched his head awkwardly: "I'm just a little curious, nothing else."
Xi snorted coldly and ignored Xingluo. She had already told him all the information she needed to tell him, so she would not give Xingluo a good look. She swept her tail and jumped to a position she thought was comfortable. She closed her eyes and went to sleep. After all, it was still daytime, and the light was still a little dazzling even for the cat royal family. Xi knew clearly about her relationship with Xingluo, and that the other person had always had someone in his heart. Even though there were countless beauties around him, he seemed lustful on the surface, but his heart seemed never to be moved. All he had was the desire as a man, nothing more.
Seeing Xi like this, Xingluo stopped talking. Looking at his bed, he suddenly felt a little pitiful. It was okay for Judge William, but how could even a cat bully him?
But thinking that the other party was a cat, Xingluo sighed. After all, in his previous life, he loved to raise cats. He would take stray cats home when he saw them, until finally his house could no longer accommodate them. All his money was used to buy cat food, and he only ate instant noodles every month. He even quarreled with his family about this matter, saying that the cat had parasites and was unclean. But how could a cat be unclean when it was so cute? It's like liking something. Even if it seems disgusting to others, the person who likes it doesn't care at all. For example, a couple immersed in a passionate kiss in a public place is dog food to others, but to them they are just immersed in each other's world and communicating deeply. If they like someone, they can exchange cups to drink water, and they can even use used things together. If they don't like someone, even relatives will separate in this regard, just like a couple who have passed the honeymoon period and finally become relatives.
