Chapter 17: The Church of Light
The next day, Yukong and Chizuki were sent out of the city by Andrew, and Andrew didn't go back until they were far away.
Yukong drove the carriage, "How should I go next!"
"Follow the avenue, head north, and I'll tell you when we get to the next place. Chizuki's voice came from inside the carriage.
Yukong sighed, he knew that he didn't want to return to his country anytime soon, he just didn't know what the Church of Light was like now. In Tang San's time, the Church of Light had already become a Martial Spirit Hall.
"However, the dispute between saints and daughters must be similar to those novels I have read before. I hope that there will be more cultivation resources at that time, and my goal is not simply to reach Title Douluo!" Yu Kong thought to himself, and the speed of the car also sped up a little, after all, if he reached the Bright Sect one step earlier, he would be able to start cultivating earlier.
After three days of walking, Yukong and Chizuki arrived in a new country. Based on the location on the map, this country is the last country on the way to the Church of Light.
Nebula Empire, one of the largest countries in the east of the continent. A simple border pass is bigger than the capital of the Kachira Kingdom. Maybe it's because it's a border city, and the guards guarding the door are all soul masters.
Here, Yukong was not challenged, not none, but was stopped by Chizuki's real guards.
"The two of them are your guards no matter what they say, it's not good for you to let them live outside like this!" Yukong said to Chizuki.
Here they were still well entertained, a large room. But Qianyue didn't let Hu Weiwei and Evil Lian into the house, and let them keep vigil outside the door.
"What's the matter, it's distressing to see them prettier than me?" Chizuki said dissatisfied.
"It's not. I mean, it wouldn't be nice if someone else saw it!" Yukong said, and although Hu Weiwei and Evil Lotus were both beautiful, they didn't have the point of pleading for him yet.
"If you see it, you see it! Qianyue said with a pout.
Yukong still wanted to speak, but Qianyue said directly, "If you say it again, even you will go out to keep vigil together!"
After leaving the Nebula Empire, after walking for half a month, Yukong and his party finally came to the territory of the Church of Light.
The current Church of Light, in fact, is not too much to call the Empire of Light. Relying on religious beliefs, the Church of Light controlled more than a dozen small principalities around it, forming an alliance. But in reality, the Church of Light has surpassed the royal family in these countries. Even the populace is more trusting of the church than of the state.
After entering the territory of the Church of Light, Chizuki became that noble saint again. Sitting by the carriage window, he stretched out his hand to greet the people around him, and won a burst of cheers.
A few days later, Yukong and the others arrived in the City of Light, which was the headquarters of the Church of Light, a city no less than the size of any imperial capital on the continent.
"You can only wait for me here for the time being, I have to take the two of them to recover first. After arriving at the church hall, Chizuki left Yukong directly at her residence.
As a saint-in-waiting, Chizuki has a small palace of her own. The guards here are all at the level of the Great Soul Master, and the chief of the guard is even more powerful at the level of the Soul Sect.
I went out at noon and didn't come back until the evening. With her was a middle-aged woman.
"Teacher, this is the genius I mentioned to you!" Qianyue is like an ordinary girl at the moment, very well-behaved.
The woman walked up to Yukong, who quickly got up. Qianyue said, "Yukong, this is my teacher, she is a Soul Emperor-level powerhouse. He winked at Yukong as he spoke.
Yukong hurriedly saluted, "I've seen my seniors." ”
"No need to be polite, you have taken care of my apprentice all the way, and it stands to reason that it is not impossible for me to let you become her knight candidate. However, I had an accident when I was young and couldn't have children. Qianyue is like my own daughter, I want to see what kind of genius she is talking about!" As he spoke, an invisible momentum pressed towards Yukong.
Yukong suddenly felt a huge pressure pressing on his shoulders. "Is this pure momentum?" Yukong didn't open his mouth to beg for mercy, but gritted his teeth to resist. However, this pressure is getting bigger and bigger, and Yukong's two feet are constantly separated, trying to disperse the pressure, but suddenly I feel that the pressure has increased again!
"This should be a test!" Yu Kong thought to himself, his hands clenched tightly, and his fingertips gradually cut through the skin. The tingling sensation kept Tamaku's consciousness awake.
"Humph!"
This sound was like a heavy hammer, smashing into Yukong's brain. Yukong spurted out a mouthful of blood, raised his head and glanced at Qianyue's teacher, and saw a cold and merciless gaze. looked at Qianyue again, and what he saw was Qianyue's smug smile. Without the slightest care or sympathy, it was as if I had seen a funny toy.
"Why? Why is this the result!" Yukong's heart was full of resentment, and with a hint of unwillingness, he fell to the ground.
"Teacher, he won't just die!" asked Qianyue as she looked at Yukong who had fallen to the ground.
"It's still far from death!" said Chizuki's teacher, "but do you really want him to be your bodyguard?"
"Hmm! I'm sure, I won't regret it!" said Qianyue with a nod.
Chizuki's teacher touched her head, "Okay then! I hope you've made the right choice." I'm going to prepare a medicinal bath for him, and you can carry him through the area now!"
Seeing his teacher leave, Qianyue hurriedly walked to Yukong's side and lifted him up, "It's really heavy!"
He carried Tamakura to the bathing room, where there was a large pool dedicated to medicinal baths.
Looking at Yukong, Chizuki said, "You're the first person to enter my bath, don't let me down!" After saying that, she threw Yukong into the pool.
The pool is large, but not deep. Put Yukong in a sitting position, and the water will not reach Yukong's neck.
At this time, Chizuki's teacher walked in, opened the box in his hand, and poured the contents into the pool water. The colorless water of the pool gradually turned blood red.
"Okay, there is a blood lotus to nourish his body, and he will complete the refining soon. It will take about three hours, are you going to wait for him here?" asked Chizuki's teacher.
Qianyue's eyes rolled, "Of course I'm with the teacher! I have a lot of things I want to tell the teacher!"
"Hehe, you little girl, you know how to please me!" said Qianyue's teacher with a smile, Qianyue quickly grabbed her arm, and the two walked out of the bathroom.
On the other side, Yukong felt as if he was in flames, the temperature around him was very high, and the flames scorched his body, from the outside to the inside.
Yukong subconsciously operated his soul power, but let that burning sensation penetrate into every corner of his body.
"Ahh "What the hell is this place, what the hell is wrong with me!" Yukong looked at the strange room, and there were too many doubts in his heart to get answers.
