Cough, cough… Envoy Lu struggled to his feet from the ruins.
He clutched his chest, which had caved in.
His face was pale, and he tried to gasp for air, but Bai Mao Zai's thunderous punch had left him breathless for a long time.
He looked up at Bai Mao Zai.
Bai Mao Zai was known as the Jie Liu Zi of the Ninth Division.
Although he was a generally disliked individual,
those who knew him well knew that Bai Mao Zai was usually good-tempered.
However, this did not mean that Bai Mao Zai would not erupt in a furious rage.
They say that when an honest person gets angry, it's the scariest thing.
But that's because they haven't seen a prodigy like Bai Mao Zai, who usually acts playful and lacks seriousness, get angry.
This crazed Bai Mao Zai had already killed the highest regional commander of the Church.
Many people in the Church hated this Bai Mao Zai to the core, yet they didn't dare to truly do anything to him.
After all, not only was Bai Mao Zai strong himself, but he also had the Ninth Division and the Zhuge Family backing him.
After a violent cough, Envoy Lu looked up at Zhuge Heng, finally catching his breath, "Zhuge Heng, do you know what you're doing? Attacking the overall commander of the Yun Cang City operation, you have some nerve!"
Bai Mao Zai's expression was cold, "If you bark again, it won't just be a punch! I promise, I'll kill you!"
Envoy Lu's already ferocious face twitched with veins on his forehead upon hearing Bai Mao Zai's blatant threat.
At this critical juncture, with the Eternal Night Army engaged in fierce battle outside, he hadn't expected an internal conflict to erupt. Moreover, Bai Mao Zai had made such a statement insisting on protecting Fang Xin. If this matter continued to escalate, he would be in a difficult position to explain himself.
Rubbing his chest, Envoy Lu casually wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Your man harmed a comrade, and he even tried to harm someone from the Church's royal family! Do you think you can protect him?"
Zhuge Heng turned his head to look at Fang Xin.
"He is an Eternal Night Army spy. He killed Tang Hu."
As he spoke, Fang Xin revealed Tang Hu's body, indicating that Bai Mao Zai could inspect Tang Hu's final memories.
With Fang Xin's help, Bai Mao Zai saw what had happened to Tang Hu before his death, and lightning flashed in his eyes.
The young man, merely glanced at by Bai Mao Zai, was immediately terrified and quickly shouted, "Envoy Lu, save me! I am from the Church's royal family! I have the blood of the god of light flowing through me! You have no right to judge me! Envoy Lu! Protect me!"
Envoy Lu's body glowed with golden light as he reached the young man. With a sinister look, he turned back and glared fiercely at the young man, but still bit the bullet and said, "Zhuge Heng, he is from the Church's Liu Family! I think you should know the consequences if you kill him! People of the Church's royal family have their own judgment mechanism! It's not up to you, or even me, to judge him!"
Zhuge Heng raised one hand, forming a hand seal. Bai Mao Zai didn't waste words with Envoy Lu. Thunder boomed, directly intending to make Liu Kaile disappear from the world.
Upon seeing this, Envoy Lu immediately exclaimed loudly, "Zhuge Heng! Are you insane! I already told you he is a noble member of the Church's royal family! How dare you still make a move!"
Boom!
After the thunder,
the area was enveloped in white light.
Then, the Holy Maiden of the Church flashed in from outside.
She blocked Bai Mao Zai's thunderous strike.
The Holy Maiden of the Church angrily questioned, "Zhuge Heng! This is a time to resist the Eternal Night Army. By instigating internal strife, do you want to face a military tribunal?"
"I think you should have heard clearly what happened just now!"
The Holy Maiden of the Church turned her head and glared at Liu Kaile.
Liu Kaile, seeing the Holy Maiden of the Church at this moment, knew that the Holy Maiden of the Church would protect him to the death, and simply shrugged.
The Holy Maiden of the Church took a breath and said to Zhuge Heng, with a tone of discussion, "Zhuge, he is a member of the Church's royal family. What he did will be accounted for to you all later, but for now, let's not let such a small matter affect the overall situation. The Eternal Night Army is still outside the city, and the enemy has not retreated!"
Zhuge Heng formed a hand seal, already prepared to launch a second attack, "To repel foreign aggression, one must first pacify internal affairs!"
Liu Kaile quickly shouted, "Holy Maiden, save me! I know I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again, I was just blinded by greed for a moment and deceived by the Eternal Night Army, I am innocent! Please protect me!"
The Holy Maiden of the Church, unable to bear it any longer, turned around and slapped Liu Kaile across the face from a distance, "You scoundrel!"
Liu Kaile covered his face, feigning tears, "Holy Maiden, I know I was wrong, I truly know I was wrong! I won't dare to do it again in the future, please give me another chance! The person from the Ninth Division who died was named Tang Hu, he had no family background, his parents are ordinary people, I will compensate their family then!"
"You scoundrel! Shut up!" The Holy Maiden of the Church clenched her fist and delivered another slap from a distance, drawing blood from Liu Kaile's mouth.
The Holy Maiden of the Church tried hard to control her emotions. She turned back to Zhuge Heng, trying to calm herself down. Her tone of voice was much softer now, "Zhuge! I can understand your feelings, but with a formidable enemy at hand, I think we should still avoid unnecessary trouble. The Eternal Night Army is watching the show right now, they'd love for us to fight among ourselves so they can take advantage. And I just told you, he's a member of the Church's royal family. When he's sent back, you'll definitely get an answer that satisfies all of you. How does that sound?"
Zhuge Heng was expressionless, "Send him back? You know their nature better than I do. At most, he'll be locked up for a few days, but that's not the result I want!"
The Holy Maiden of the Church glanced outside the city.
She still had to confront Zhuge Heng while dealing with Zhulong outside the city.
At this moment, Zhuge Heng flashed back into the city, and Lu Dingjia alone was struggling slightly against Master Kou, the commander of the Kou Family Army. Master Kou's boisterous laughter echoed.
"Brother Dingjia, look, shouldn't these sons of bitches from the Church all die? Why don't you help me now, and we'll kill the Holy Maiden of the Church? Then, when we invade the Church, how about I give you one-tenth of the Church's large cake?!"
Lu Dingjia turned his head, his eyes wide with anger. This old man was straightforward and hot-tempered, "Damn it! These dog-faced bastards who drag us down!"
Then he looked at Master Kou again and cursed in a loud, booming voice, "Old Cripple Kou, you old geezer, that trick of yours to sow discord is quite insidious!"
Kou Hongcheng laughed heartily, "You flatter me! You can't blame me, you can only blame these grandsons of the Church for being too despicable, isn't that right? That Church member is from their Church's royal family, here to gain experience. In all of Yun Cang City, the only ones who dare to kill him are you and that Bai Mao. But these Church people definitely won't let you kill him, hahaha. With the Holy Maiden blocking, he'll just dust himself off and leave. The Church's royal family protects their own, they'll just punish themselves with three drinks, and nothing will happen. You'll just have to swallow your anger!"
Lu Dingjia suddenly showed a smile, "Old Cripple Kou, in Yun Cang City, it's not just me and Bai Mao who dare to kill that Church royal family bastard. You missed someone!"
Kou Hongcheng was stunned, "Who?"
Liu Kaile feigned remorse on his face, but inadvertently, he showed a contemptuous smile towards Fang Xin, as if saying that Fang Xin could only stare helplessly.
Zhuge Heng formed a hand seal, and heavenly thunder boomed.
Just then, Bai Mao Zai's voice came into Fang Xin's ear.
"I'll hold off the Holy Maiden, Old Xing will hold off Envoy Lu, you go kill that Church bastard!"
Boom!
Lightning crashed down towards the Holy Maiden of the Church.
Xing Longshu suddenly moved to attack Envoy Lu.
Fang Xin's eyes glowed with fierce light, murderous intent pouring out. He gripped the Panlong Spear with both hands and leaped up.
He instantly flashed above Liu Kaile.
Gripping the Panlong Spear with both hands, he raised it high and thrust it fiercely down towards Liu Kaile's crown.
