Chapter 532: 532 Three Saint Pastors
Furthermore, after the A-class Spirit Robe “Black Moon Tide” was released, the entire hall seemed to be trapped in a muddy swamp. Both living and non-living things became sluggish in their movements.
Only Oberon, in a flash, had already slipped out of the hall door, transforming into a black light and charging towards a distant tall building. The ancient clock on the building’s rooftop was about to strike six. The instant the second hand returned to the twelve o’clock position, a spatial vortex tore open from the center of the clock. This was a space gate opened with the Moon Saint Technique Domain, allowing him to teleport directly to a nearby Holy See branch and thus escape to a safe place. Within milliseconds, he was mere inches from the space gate, and Oberon’s panicked and terrified emotions turned into relief.
However, unknowingly, a Miao Dao with a slender body and a clear red hilt appeared suspended before the clock. Before Oberon could react, a woman in a luxurious blood-red long dress quietly emerged from behind the Miao Dao, her beautiful eyes lifting slightly. The King’s Will descended, and Oberon immediately felt an urge to kneel. His legs bent slightly, and his movement was consequently delayed.
Before entering the hall, Xia Feng had already detected this spatial point in the clock tower. He had thrown the Gui Dao onto the clock to seal off all of the enemy’s escape routes in conjunction with the Four Symbols Array.
“Buzz—!” Life and death were decided in an instant. Oberon had no time to react as three bolts of lightning, carrying a terrifying killing intent, pierced directly through the back of his head, neck, and heart! Oberon’s indifferent expression had completely turned ferocious. He let out a low growl, wanting to achieve Mutually Assured Destruction with Xia Feng. From behind him, seven more bolts of lightning flashed and surged into his physical body. His figure stiffened mid-air. The next second, he exploded with a boom. Instant kill!
A wisp of a remnant spirit rose from the lightning and flames. Xia Feng waved his hand, preparing to use Miss Mu’s Spirit Voice to hypnotize the remnant spirit and see if he could extract some information. However, he didn’t expect that dense blood-red patterns would light up on the semi-transparent surface of the remnant spirit, like countless tributaries converging between its eyebrows, flashing with a triangular symbol. The triangular symbol rotated clockwise like a key switch.
Xia Feng’s expression changed slightly. He grabbed the Miao Dao and retreated at extreme speed. “Boom—!!” The remnant spirit exploded with infinite light like a blazing sun. The world was filled with white light. Xia Feng narrowed his eyes. It took a while for the light to fade.
To think it could self-destruct! Cursing internally, he wondered, “But why does this symbol feel a bit familiar?” Soon, Xia Feng remembered that the Life Roulette game to contend for the Sumeru Throne had this exact triangular symbol in the center of its interface. The referee of the game also wore a mask with this symbol. This was truly unbelievable. Was the person behind Oberon also related to the Sumeru Throne incident?
Xia Feng’s doubts grew. His gaze shifted to the inside of the hall. The purple mist inside the hall had completely dispersed. The two Saintesses’ faces were pale. Leaning against each other, they relaxed. Having survived the ordeal, Jiang Qiue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. However, feeling the woman’s close back against her, she couldn’t help but frown and stepped aside.
Cha Nai Xue, losing her support, subconsciously stumbled back a few steps. She didn’t get angry, merely smiled lightly, “Saintess Qiue, wasn’t I right? He is much more powerful than you imagined.” Jiang Qiue pursed her lips and remained silent, only looking up at the blood-dressed woman re-entering the hall from outside. Indeed, she had already thought highly of Xia Feng and the Q-Masked Man, but she hadn’t expected her imagination’s limit to not be Xia Feng’s limit. Despite being only 19 years old, he could already contend with low-level Venerables. It was worthy of being Sirius.
It’s just a pity… this so-called Sirius is my enemy! Jiang Qiue narrowed her beautiful eyes, the humiliation of last night vividly remembered. She would not fear or give up her revenge because Xia Feng was too much of a genius. Just wait, Xia Feng. I will— At this thought, Jiang Qiue’s expression froze. Her thighs were pressed tightly together beneath her green dress. A sudden urge to urinate made her scalp tingle slightly. Her ethereal, beautiful eyes looked up coldly at Xia Feng.
After punishing Jiang Qiue, who was constantly thinking of betrayal at this moment, Xia Feng paid her no further mind and went directly to Olivia. Olivia hadn’t escaped. She was squatting down, curiously fiddling with the deceased white cat on the ground.
“Clang—” The sharp blade of the long saber was quietly placed at her neck. Her action of fiddling with the cat’s corpse paused. Xia Feng’s low voice came from above, “Give me a reason not to kill you.” Olivia raised her scarlet eyes calmly, “I am not a piece of trash like Oberon. If I wanted to run, you couldn’t kill me.”
“?” Xia Feng blinked. No, where did she get her confidence from? Did Cha Nai Xue give it to her? However, seeing her serious and calm expression, it didn’t seem like she was acting. Xia Feng looked at her suspiciously: “Tell me, what exactly do you want to do?”
Olivia stood up and said calmly, “Last night, I received a message from Pastor Moro asking me to cooperate with Oberon in all his subsequent actions.” “However, what surprised me was that Oberon’s objective was those two pieces of trash.” Olivia’s hoarse voice carried excitement as she curled her lips. “And what surprised me even more…”
! Her scarlet eyes narrowed as she stared at Xia Feng, “What surprised me even more was you and Teresa.” “I have to say, you are indeed very strong.”
“…” Xia Feng was momentarily speechless. Should he thank her for the compliment? While contemplating, Xia Feng asked suspiciously, “Aren’t you a Saintess? Whatever Pastor Moro tells you to do, you do it?”
“This pastor is not an ordinary pastor.” At this moment, Cha Nai Xue also walked over and explained, “Below the Pope, there are the Three Saint Pastors and Four Saintesses. Below the Saint Pastors are the Twelve Cardinals.” “The Pastor she is referring to, Pastor Moro, is one of the Three Saint Pastors, with a status equal to that of a Saintess.” “The so-called Saint Pastor is actually the shepherd of the Saintesses, their mentor, and even their guardian.” “Olivia was raised by Saint Pastor Moro.”
After hearing Cha Nai Xue’s explanation, Xia Feng nodded thoughtfully and looked at Olivia again, “Since Saint Pastor Moro asked you to cooperate with Oberon, why did you suddenly betray him and sneak attack the White Cat Woman?” Olivia tsked mockingly, “Oberon and the White Cat were clearly no match for you. The plan was about to fail, only a fool would continue to be allied with them. Moreover, the White Cat Woman’s soul quality is no worse than Oberon’s, making her a suitable sacrifice for my blade.”
“…” No, are you that casual? Xia Feng’s eye corners twitched as he looked at the dead cat on the ground, his pupils narrowing, “This seems to be just an ordinary white cat.” “Because this was never her main body.” Olivia kicked the dead cat, her gaze cold. “When my Blood Prison Blade killed her, it devoured her memories and consciousness, but it didn’t devour her complete soul, indicating that this cat body was just a means of possession.” “This woman still escaped!” Olivia’s scarlet eyes were filled with killing intent. No one she wanted to kill could escape.
Xia Feng couldn’t help but frown. She escaped? However, based on the current information, Pastor Moro might be the one instigating Oberon, or at least related to it, he speculated in his heart. If he were to go to the Black Moon General Court next, he would have to be careful of this person. While contemplating, Xia Feng suddenly thought of something and looked at Cha Nai Xue and Jiang Qiue suspiciously, “By the way, who is your mentor or guardian among the Saint Pastors?”
