Chapter 714: Holy Light Church
Hearing Bai Qi's words, Emperor Fa smiled slightly and stopped asking about Bai Qi's origins. He just glanced at the Husky and the absurd clown beside Bai Qi.
"I don't think I've ever seen these two pets. It seems that you are a very good trainer, little brother."
Emperor Fa paused and said, "We in the Wanfa Empire recruit all kinds of talents. Have you ever considered joining us, little brother?"
"A trainer? Sorry, I'm not one."
Upon hearing this, Bai Qi directly denied what the Emperor of Law said, looked around, and thought about how to escape.
Although it feels good to have face-to-face contact with a celebrity in human history like Emperor Fa... no, a super celebrity, he is not from this era after all. It would be very troublesome if Emperor Fa found out something.
He didn't think he could hide from the wisdom of the French Emperor.
What? You mean the Dharma Emperor might not be able to find it?
Are you kidding? How could a person who promoted runes to all mankind and also built an unprecedentedly powerful empire be a fool?
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I still have some things to do, so..."
Thinking of this, Bai Qi immediately asked Emperor Fa to leave, but before he could finish his words, a loud voice was heard, and then a team of fully armed knights wrapped in holy light came from the west.
"Holy Light? Could it be the Borg family? Oh no, in this era it should be the Holy Light Church?"
Bai Qi's eyes narrowed upon seeing this. He wondered if he could get any information about the Round Table of Death from the Vatican a thousand years ago.
Perhaps, he could have killed the Round Table of Death thousands of years ago?
Bai Qi was immersed in his own thoughts for a long time. When he came to his senses, the Knights of Holy Light had already arrived in front of them.
"Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to be here. Please forgive my impoliteness."
A blond man in a red robe came before the French Emperor and bowed respectfully.
"So it's Bishop Samuel. How did you find time to come to the south?"
When he saw the cardinal appear, the smile on Emperor France's face suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by the majesty of an emperor. Bai Qi couldn't help but admire the speed at which the two expressions switched.
"We received an oracle from the Lord saying that this place would be invaded by darkness, so the Pope sent me here to remove the darkness."
Hearing Samuel's words, Emperor Fa smiled and said, "The Pope is really thoughtful to send a cardinal to such a remote place to eliminate the darkness."
"But unfortunately, you seem to be late."
When Samuel heard this, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and then he turned into a respectful look and bowed to the Emperor of France.
"Your Majesty is here in person, so a mere natural disaster of the undead is naturally not a problem."
Samuel paused and said, "However, the undead are best at disguise. Your Majesty is very busy and may not be able to stay for long. Our Church is willing to take your place..."
Before Samuel could finish his words, a flash of sword light came from afar and landed in front of the two of them. Then, Yan Mo Legend appeared holding a skeleton skull.
"Don't bother Bishop Samuel. I am enough here."
A fierce aura emanated from Yan Mo Legend, and his target was directly towards Samuel, abruptly interrupting Samuel's words.
Seeing Samuel being so aggressive, Samuel smiled and said, "So Yan Mo Legend is here too. It's true that our Church is being too sentimental."
Samuel bowed slightly to the two of them and said, "Your Majesty and Yan Mo Legend must have something else to do, so I won't bother you any more. The Holy Light Knights will be stationed here for a while. If necessary, Your Majesty can summon us at any time."
After saying that, Samuel led the Knights of Holy Light back in the direction they came from, with no intention of entering the City of No Danger.
"Your Majesty, the Holy See probably already knew about the Undead Scourge?"
Yan Mo Legend watched the Holy Light Knights leave and said.
"Well, those ferocious beasts I encountered on the road were probably lured out by them."
The Emperor nodded slightly, a trace of fear flashed across his eyes, but he quickly hid it. He looked at Bai Qi with a smile and said, "Little brother, I wonder if I have the honor to treat you to a drink so that I can express my gratitude to you."
"Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you..."
"Not forced, not forced at all!"
As soon as Emperor Fa finished speaking, Bai Qi accepted his invitation. The change in attitude was so quick that even Emperor Fa was a little surprised.
This young man is so interesting.
"In that case, please follow me."
Fadi smiled, looked at Yan Mo Chuanqi, and said, "Yan Mo, you are responsible for making arrangements for the army."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Yan Mo Legend knelt on one knee and then flew towards the avenue next to Wuxian City. He could vaguely see an army rushing towards this side.
So this is the reinforcement the defenders on the city wall mentioned before?
The French Emperor is leading the team himself, and even the Knights of Holy Light have come. Is something going to happen here?
Bai Qi looked deeply in the direction of the Holy Light Knights, as if thinking about something, until he heard the call from the Emperor of France, and then he followed.
…
“Hahaha… I didn’t expect that Brother Bai Qi, you are not only powerful, but also have such a deep understanding of runes.”
The Emperor of Law did not hide his admiration for Bai Qi at all, and invited him again, saying: "Bai Qi, do you really not consider joining our Wanfa Empire? As long as you are willing, you can ask for any salary you want!"
The emperor's face was full of sincerity, but Bai Qi still shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm a person who is afraid of trouble, so I'd better not do it."
"In that case, I won't force it."
Fadi felt a little regretful, and then asked curiously: "Bai Qi, you said that you originally lived in seclusion with your teacher. Are you here to gain experience this time?"
"That's right, my teacher asked me to come out and see the world. Staying in isolation won't help improve my strength."
Bai Qi said.
"Indeed."
Emperor Fa smiled and said, "But Bai Qi, you have already become a legend, so your teacher allowed you to come out for training. It seems that your teacher is also very powerful."
“It is indeed very powerful.”
Bai Qi nodded. Although Fa Di was also very strong, Bai Qi could still sense the gap between him and Bai Heguang.
Whether it is the Emperor of Law or the Legend of Yama, their pets have not reached the demigod realm. Although they are all legends, there is still a big difference in their aura.
Maybe it’s because of the limitations of the world.
"Your Majesty, can I ask about Bishop Samuel? They should also be here to help defend the city, but Your Majesty seems..."
Bai Qi was about to say something but stopped himself. The conflicts between imperial power and divine power were very common there, not to mention this extraordinary world.
The reason why he asked even though he knew the answer was that he just wanted to take the opportunity to find out some information about the Holy Light Church.
"Yes, I hate the Holy Light Church."
The French Emperor's words were shocking, with no intention of hiding anything, which made Bai Qi, who had originally wanted to ask more subtly, feel quite embarrassed.
"Looking at you, Bai Qi, you really don't know anything about the outside world."
Seeing this, Emperor Fa patted Bai Qi on the shoulder and said, " Almost everyone in the entire dynasty knows that I don't like the Holy See. This is no longer a secret."
"I don't mind turning powerful pets into gods and asking the people of the empire to believe in them. After all, proper faith can help humans persevere longer in difficult situations."
"I absolutely cannot tolerate giving up my will and everything I have just for faith!"
After listening to Emperor Fa's story, Bai Qi immediately understood.
No wonder the Holy See ceased to exist after the Wanfa Dynasty. It seemed that it was dissolved by the Emperor of France.
"Sorry, I couldn't help but say a few more words."
Seeing the strange look on Bai Qi's face, Emperor Fa also realized his own gaffe.
"I don't know why, but I have an inexplicable sense of intimacy with you, and I can even say these things."
Sense of intimacy?
Oh my god, does this uncle Fadi have any bad taste?
Bai Qi's eyes twitched, and he stepped back silently, while Emperor Fa continued, "Although this is a bit personal, I still suggest that you, Bai Qi, don't get involved with the Holy Light Church, otherwise it may affect your training."
"I see."
Bai Qi nodded slightly and stopped asking about the Holy Light Church.
"By the way, Your Majesty, why did you suddenly come to Wuxian City?"
"Originally, I didn't need to come, but the Dusk Tomb at Muye Hill has been restless recently, so I was worried, so I came to take a look myself."
Fadi paused and said, "Speaking of this, I sensed a strong shadow force on the battlefield just now. Is it your pet, Bai Qi?"
"Your Majesty's perception is very strong, indeed."
Bai Qi shrugged and summoned Alpha directly.
Although Alpha returned to the secret realm directly after Emperor Fa appeared, it was obviously unrealistic to hide it from Emperor Fa.
"This is my pet Alpha, from the Undead race. I didn't summon it just now to avoid trouble."
"The Undead... seem to have some dragon aura? Your teacher actually asked you to contract an Undead creature. It seems that Bai Qi, you really need to stay away from the Holy Light Church."
Emperor Fa carefully sensed the aura of Alpha and couldn't help but sigh.
Even the Federation, which had become much more accepting of all kinds of creatures a thousand years later, did not truly accept the Undead until after Bai and Guang.
In this era, those who dare to and can make contracts with undead creatures are basically not good characters. According to the words of the Holy Light Church, they are heretics!
"Indeed."
Bai Qi shrugged and said, "But don't worry, Your Majesty. Alpha is different from other undead creatures and will not attack others casually."
Fadi nodded slightly and was about to say something when a flash of knife light suddenly pierced through the wall and flew towards Alpha.
Seeing this, Alpha immediately drew out the Sword of Annihilation, shattered the blade light, and then slashed out with another sword, attacking the figure rushing out from behind the wall.
"Your Majesty, I sense the presence of a legendary undead here. Are you okay?"
Yan Mo Legend held Alpha's long sword and looked around nervously. After seeing Bai Qi with an innocent look and Fa Di with a strange smile on his face, he was stunned.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?"
