Chapter 142: Temple Priest

said that she couldn't tell her age, because the woman was obviously covered with white hair, but she had a delicate and beautiful face, obviously there was no wrinkle on her skin, but she had a pair of eyes that were as deep as a lake. The priestly robes she wore were more opulent than those of the priests of Roland, and were not only inlaid with precious stones, but also tied with a golden belt, and a green-and-white scarf embroidered with flowers and leaves draped over her shoulders, which added to her elegance. Compared to the plainly dressed priests Xiao Chen had seen, she was like a princess rather than a clergyman.

"Ah, it was her, and when I saw this proud swan-like appearance, I remembered Margaret, who was called the flower of the forest. She was an outlier among the priests of the Temple of Nature, and beauty and dress were perhaps more important to her than oracles. Liu Yisheng said.

"Flower of the Forest?" Webber was stunned, "Isn't her nickname Temple Rose?"

"That's right. Don't care, anyway, her nickname in this world is still so rustic. Liu Yisheng shrugged.

Xiao Chen and his entourage walked to the square, and the people from the Natural Temple had not yet spoken, but the city lord here, Viscount Anderson, spoke first. He was a handsome young man of twenty-seven or eighteen, with long purple hair, he held a long sword in his arms, his head was slightly tilted sideways, and he looked at the blood-stained father and son, and said, "Webb, Franco, Gramm, you father and son are really capable." Actually killed Alfred's irascible guy. This is something that will leave a name in the history books, and even I have to say that I admire it. However, you are too reckless to do this, no matter what, as long as the royal family of the Purple Eagle Empire does not fall, how can the noble circle of the empire tolerate you? It seems that you are determined to do it with the Chinese, right?"

"Anderson, when can you talk to me like that?" Webb said coldly.

"Weber, now that you are an enemy of our empire, why do I need to be kind to you? Look at you, it has only been a day, and you have brought your new master to seize the cities of the empire! The emperor is not good to your family, even if I kill him, I don't care. But it's disgusting to give up the Imperial city you're supposed to defend to the enemy. I think you have more blood in your blood than a lion, right?" Anderson scoffed.

Gram said angrily: "Anderson, insulting the bloodline of the bloodline nobles is a never-ending thing, you are just a high-level, you dare to say such things in front of the three of us, you are really tired!"

"I'm afraid of you?" Anderson raised his eyebrows, "it is you who should be afraid now, do you know how many nobles will want to kill you? ”

Count Duane pressed Viscount Anderson's shoulder and said, "Your Excellency Anderson, that's enough." Now that these people have arrived here, we should give up time to Priest Margaret. ”

"Of course, of course, I just felt a little resentful when I saw these guys switch sides so quickly. Anderson turned to Margaret and said, "Priest Margaret, please forgive me for saying a few more words out of righteous indignation, and now please." ”

"Mages from the Tower of China, I am the presiding priest Margaret of the Western Branch of the Imperial Temple of Nature. The woman, surrounded by a group of Imperials, spoke, "We are here because the Temple has issued an order for you to end this war immediately. ”

Xiao Chen looked at the priestess, feeling that he was full of confidence when he said this, obviously thinking that the Tower of China should and must accept their mediation.

"I am Xiao Chen, the acting chairman of the China Tower. Priest Margaret, do you know what the best thing the Temple of Nature did before was?" Xiao Chen asked with a grin.

"What do you want to say?" asked Margaret.

"The best thing you did was to stay in the temple and not intervene in our secular wars. Xiao Chen said, "Since you didn't appear when the Imperial people attacked Heimu Pass, you shouldn't appear in Holy Sword City now." Otherwise, where do you start with what you always call neutrality?"

"Your Excellency Xiao Chen, is this what you, as the head of the Tower of China, want to say to the Temple of Nature?" Margaret smiled, and had to say that no matter what flower this priest was called, she was indeed a great beauty, but she was like a rose with thorns, and she spoke aggressively, "Don't you know? The attitude adopted by the Temple of Nature has never been neutral, but to keep the situation on the mainland in a suitable and reasonable situation. Now that you have attacked all the way to the Holy Sword City, it seems to me that you have crossed too many boundaries. The empire has ruled the city for hundreds of years, and there is no need to change the ruler here now. Look at the side of Kuroki Pass, you have already devoured nearly a quarter of the kingdom's land, are you still not satisfied?"

"Lord Margaret, what is the standard for not crossing the line, is it true that the Natural Temple still has its own requirements for the appearance of this world?" Xiao Chen asked.

Margaret said confidently, "You don't have to ask us what our criteria are, the emperors and kings seem to rule this continent, but they are constantly changing dynasties, only the Temple of Nature has been the same for ten thousand years, and has guarded this land for the true gods. We certainly know better than you short-lived rulers what is best for the continent. So, once the Temple of Nature has made a judgment, our decision is beyond question. ”

Xiao Chen said: "We are not an empire or a kingdom, and our rule is different from any country in the past. If you come to our territory, you will find that our people are more stable and happy than any other country on this continent. Even if you haven't been to our city, you should have seen our goods sold everywhere. With us, the wealth earned is used for our people, so that they can be fed, clothed, educated in ignorance, and healed when they are sick. If the Temple of Nature really cares about the people of this continent, then it should allow us to rule more areas. ”

Luo Ling said: "If I am not mistaken, Ms. Margaret's shawl is the product of our China Tower." ”

Margaret stroked her shawl with her hand and chuckled, "What does what you say has to do with the temple's decision?"
