Chapter 104: Freedom and Survival

Why was Qi Xuansu not affected? There are many reasons for this, but the key is that the earth master helped him deal with the pages of the "Shiri Sutra".

Can today's Qi Xuansu compete with Cirilla? Considering that Hirella could not come directly, could only penetrate part of her power, and the influence she could have in the real world was quite limited, Qi Xuansu was not afraid of this Hell Apostle.

However, Qi Xuansu didn't agree directly, he couldn't ask a beautiful woman softly, he took a big risk to help her, he was not such a good person.

Seeing that Qi Xuansu was noncommittal, Audrey immediately said, "As long as Your Excellency can help me gain liberation and get rid of Cirella's control over me, I can give everything I have."

Qi Xuansu shook his head and said, "I'm not interested in anything about you, including your golden crown, identity, status, reputation, body, etc., I'm not interested."

Audrey was not surprised by Qi Xuansu's refusal, and then said, "What about the list of traitors within Tawanting?"

For a moment, the atmosphere between the two seemed to freeze.

Qi Xuansu's appearance was quite calm, but his tone was a little more calm: "Miss El, what does the traitor of Tawantin have to do with me?"

Audrey didn't seem to notice the change in Qi Xuansu's tone, and continued, "It is said that the influence of the 'Ceri Sutra is pervasive, and even its owner, Hirella, was also accidentally affected, thinking that it was an existence comparable to the supreme will, and was so arrogant that he took the initiative to attack the Holy See. Eventually, he was sent to hell, and the Shri Sutra fell into the hands of the Holy See, which did not destroy the Shri Sutra, but only sealed it as a means against the enemy."

"For hundreds of years, the 'Shri Sutra remained in the hands of the Holy See, until a few years ago, Toronus, one of the three apostles of the Holy See, descended on the eastern seas and lost it. It is said, 'The Shri Sutra fell into the hands of the Eastern Daomen.'

"And you, Mr. Daci van der Linde, have the power of the 'Shri Sutra. That's interesting, do you have any connection with the Daomen on the other side of the ocean?"

"By the way, and the violent explosion that occurred in the lower city last night, I heard some rumors that seem to be related to the shelterers of Tawantin."

Qi Xuansu calmed down instead: "Miss El, you are very well informed."

Audrey smiled, "I used to tour around the Old World, and I made a few bishop friends from it."

Qi Xuansu was not panicked, since Audrey said these things to her face, instead of reporting and exposing them to the Holy Court, it means that she wants to negotiate conditions, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Audrey added, "I don't say this to blackmail Your Excellency, I just want to prove that Your Excellency really needs this information."

"Where did your so-called list of traitors to Tawantine come from?" Qi Xuansu asked.

Audrey replied: "I have a good personal relationship with a cardinal priest and I stumbled upon this list while visiting his home."

Although Qi Xuansu had already set up a ban on the surroundings to isolate the inside and outside, Qi Xuansu still said, "Let's talk in a more suitable place."

"To my apartment?" Audrey suggested.

Qi Xuansu said: "To go outside the city, you don't need your real body to go in person, just projection."

Audrey nodded, and the projection slowly dissipated.

Qi Xuansu also disappeared in place.

Although this is the most prosperous place in Midtown, the most prosperous place in the whole of St. York, and even the Cathedral of St. Francis, the Patriarch is not here, but in the Uptown District, so Qi Xuansu is not afraid of being discovered.

Soon, Qi Xuansu appeared on a wasteland outside the city, not far from the Hudson River.

Audrey also pursued the breath of the "Xi Rui Sutra" and projected it in front of Qi Xuansu again.

Qi Xuansu got straight to the point this time and said, "As you said, I am indeed very interested in the list of traitors in your hands, but there is one thing,

I want to know, how do you make sure this list is authentic?"

"I'm sorry, I can't guarantee that." Audrey, wearing a hood, shook her head slowly.

Qi Xuansu said, "Then there's nothing to talk about."

Audrey looked at Qi Xuansu and said seriously, "But I can vouch for it with my life."

"What do you mean?" Qi Xuansu and Audrey looked at each other, "You can be more specific."

Audrey whispered, "I can leave St. York and go to Tawantine, if this information is wrong and I have deceived you, then ...... You can execute me. But if this information is true, then please give me refuge."

Qi Xuansu was silent for a moment and said, "Miss El, if I'm not mistaken, you don't just want to get rid of Cirela's control, but you also want to escape from the Western world, right?"

Audrey was silent for a moment, then nodded, "That's right."

"It's both a guarantee and a flight. In the words of the Orientals, kill two birds with one stone." Qi Xuansu said, "It's just, is it worth it? You have fame, status, identity, and many fans in St. York, and you have a lot of fans. But you have to take a big risk to go to Tawantine, even if you succeed, you won't get anything, there is no prosperity in St. York, you will not have everything you have now, and you will even be hostile to the locals, I can ask, what is all this for? Is it just to get rid of Cirilla?"

Audrey fell into a long silence and slowly spat out two words: "Freedom."

"Hell is Cirilla's cage, and St. York is my cage. No matter how delicate and ornate, no matter how pure gold and gemstones, the cage is always a cage, and I am the bird in the cage, without the slightest freedom."

"Go to Tawantine and I can be free."

Qi Xuansu said noncommittally, "It is also possible that he has come from one cage to another, and Tawantine is only on a different position from St. York, which does not mean that Tawantine will be a paradise. There is a saying in the East that people leave their hometown, and leaving their hometown is not necessarily a good choice."

Under Qi Xuansu's gaze, Audrey fell silent again.

Qi Xuansu said slowly, "I believe that what you said is true. But I think freedom is only one of the many reasons that led you to make such a decision, and there must be deeper reasons. I don't like the 'tell all the lies and tell the truth' and I want us to be more honest with each other. If you want to cooperate, then you should be honest, what do you say?"

Audrey sighed, "Okay, sincerely. As Your Excellency said, freedom is indeed only one of the many reasons why I want to escape from St. York, and the deeper reason, and the most fundamental reason, is to survive."

Qi Xuansu asked, "Could it be that someone wants to kill you?" In St. York? From what I have observed, you seem to be on good terms with the Speaker Sophia August, and you should be safe under her protection."

Audrey asked rhetorically, "What if the person who wants to hurt me is Sophia August?"

Qi Xuansu said calmly, "I don't deny this possibility, but you still need more reasons to prove and convince me."

Audrey bit her lip lightly, looking pitiful: "Of course, I can give more reasons to convince Your Excellency, but the projection is not enough, you need to meet my real body."

Qi Xuansu asked directly, "What time?" Where is it?"

"Now, as for the location, I'm back in my apartment." Audrey looked at Qi Xuansu's expression, "Your Excellency won't suspect that I have set some trap, will you?"

Qi Xuansu just said, "I'll be there soon."

Audrey can follow the power of the "Xi Rui Sutra" to find Qi Xuansu's location, and Qi Xuansu can also reverse determine Audrey's location, this connection is always a two-way street.

Audrey El finally finished dealing with the magnates and dragged her tired back to the door of her apartment on the White Avenue.

This exhaustion is not physical exhaustion

Labor, but the weariness of the spirit, because of weariness.

When Audrey opened the door to the apartment, her eyes widened.

Qi Xuansu, who was still by the river outside the city just now, was sitting on the sofa in the living room at this time, holding a cane in both hands, looking at Audrey calmly.

"Mr. van der Linde, you're coming so fast." Audrey regained her composure in an instant and closed the door to her apartment.

The moment the door closed, the entire apartment was completely cut off from the inside and outside.

Qi Xuansu said, "Now, we can continue to talk."

Audrey's face was solemn: "Okay. I will provide more reasons to convince you."

With that, Audrey began to take off her evening dress.

Qi Xuansu frowned, but quickly stretched out again.

Audrey didn't want to show Qi Xuansu her graceful body, under the evening dress, there was a rather terrifying body, covered with all kinds of strange characters, although Qi Xuansu did not know these characters, but they were not strangers, exactly the same as the words on the page of the "Xi Rui Sutra".

These characters can be found almost everywhere in Audrey's body, with the exception of those who are often *** away, such as the cheeks, neck, collarbone, chest, ankles, and so on.

Of course, such a body cannot serve people with Israel, otherwise after taking off their clothes, they will really scare those "guests" into malaise.

Qi Xuansu realized that his previous guess was wrong, there was another hidden meaning in this, and it was by no means a simple power transaction.

Audrey said in a very sad tone, "I can clearly feel that my life is being lost, my consciousness is dying, and I believe that it will not be long before I will be replaced by Cirilla. I must get rid of Cirilla, and I must escape from St. York."

Qi Xuansu asked, "What does your erosion by Cirela have to do with you becoming a well-known actor?"

Audrey whispered, "Your Excellency, the apostles need a large number of believers, and those who are obsessed with me are the most suitable candidates."
