The cardinal stared grimly at the empty wall, his heart slowly sank.

He sent Ivan flying and bought the time while speaking to me, the reason is definitely this painting.

Shit, I think this painting was to be something that the king gave to Madame Punta?

Before, Madame Punta had always hung this painting right at the main hall to show her connection to the king, it was only recently that she had it taken down to put into the exhibition room.

The king was famously known as a Casanova, so he frequently gave items that have memorial value to noble ladies as gifts. And this painting is only one of numerous others so no one would ever feel that there’s any problems here.

But now, someone had come specifically for the painting.

That means there was definitely something up with it.

Just what secret was the painting hiding?

Why did I not notice it from the start?

The cardinal suddenly began roaring angrily, destroying the exhibition room with his whip.

“Your Holiness!” as the Paladin officer heard that, he came and stood at the door looking at him.

“Go! Quickly inform everyone, that person calling himself Zhang Ren Jia might have something to do with the matter regarding the king, we definitely cannot let him escape!” the cardinal was breathing heavily and shouting.

This has something to do with the king!

As soon as the officer heard that, he hurriedly responded: “Yes sir!”

“Right, Zhang Ren Jia is wearing a full golden armor, he should be extremely eye-catching right now!” the cardinal quickly added.

“Yes sir!”

“Quickly leave, inform all the forces!”

The officer quickly said ‘yes’ and ran out.

At the same time.

The Holy Sanctuary.

The Pope was still sitting on her throne, using a brush to paint something on the canvas with absolute concentration.

Suddenly, she put down her brush and sighed.

“I can’t shake this feeling…”

She quickly didn’t hesitate anymore and called: “Come”

Very quickly, a nun came and kneeled in front of her.

“If I remember correctly, you’re an orphan adopted by God on Earth” the Pope looked at her and asked.

“Yes sir, if it weren’t for the grace of God, I would’ve died of starvation or sickness long ago” the nun very sincerely answered.

“Is your faith firm?”

“In life or in death, this servant exists to serve you, to save the great God”

“Do you have a person in your heart?”

“No, my heart has always been pure and pristine”

“Then now, that the holy moment has come, do you agree to sacrifice your everything for the sake of the Holy Church?”

The nun looked up, speaking with a fanatic look on her face: “For God, for you, I will sacrifice my everything”

“Hm, very well”

The Pope nodded satisfyingly and took a page off the drawing table.

She threw it out.

The paper silently floated above the nun and took her in.

As the Pope lightly waved, the paper returned and hover right in front of her.

Taking the paper in hand, the Pope shook it lightly.

The paper has turned into a card.

On the card was the same nun that was here just now.

Her pale face was red from excitement, both her hands clasped together, praying.

Two lines of text appeared on the card.

[The devout nun]

[A pure and devout follower, willing to sacrifice everything for her faith, including her soul itself]

The Pope silently stared at the card.

After a while, she placed the card straight at her chest and muttered: “Dispel”

The card suddenly let out an extremely desperate cry of pain.

The nun in the card was screaming while being engulfed and turned into a holy white fire.

One of the chains that wrapped the Pope appeared, coiling around the white fire.

In a single moment, both the nun card and the black chain turned into white dust, scattered on the ground.

The Pope silently watched this.

Then she laughed.

“Hah, how dumb” she said.

“There are two more seals of destiny left”

“Come”

Another devout nun came in.

“If I remember correctly, you’re an orphan adopted by God on Earth” the Pope asked once again.

“Yes, my everything belong to the Holy Church” the nun replied.

“Now that the Holy moment has come, do you agree to sacrifice for the sake of the Holy Church?”

Another scream of agony, the Pope has released another one of her seals.

“Soon…”

Feeling the relief after her seal became undone, the unease in the Pope’s mind loosened.

Suddenly, she was surprised, as if she was seeing something strange.

“———ah, where’s Ivan going?”

The Pope asked in confusion, then tried to draw a card from the air.

But she wasn’t able to draw anything.

“Too far away? How is that possible!”

The Pope was very surprised.

Also Madame Punta’s manor is at the outskirts of the capital, but that’s still not very far away.

At first, the Pope didn’t mind it much, but now she can’t help but be cautious.

She thought about it for a bit, muttering: “Ivan went to a banquet… yes, I had him take my place…”

“At the time… I was busy peeking into the path of destiny”

The Pope fell silent.

“Hurt!” she suddenly stood up and shouted.

“I’m here!”

Hurt quickly walked up and kneeled down.

On the other side.

Gu Qing Shan was quickly running on the highway heading to the capital.

Suddenly, his body shook, took off the golden armor and put it away in his Inventory Bag.

After that, Gu Qing Shan made a hand seal.

The Improved Super Presence Concealment Technique was activated and his presence instantly disappeared.

Gu Qing Shan quickly and silently moved to the side of a lake.

There was a large rock right next to the lake, about 3 people tall.

Glancing at the rock, Gu Qing Shan stopped his feet.

He went to the rock, carved out a cave entrance in the rock like it was tofu with the Earth Sword.

Looking at it, Gu Qing Shan was very satisfied.

After cutting it open, the inside was easily enough to hold a single person.

With how careful Gu Qing Shan was, the part that was cut away didn’t have so much as a crack or pebble, all he needed to do was slice off a part from the inside and he can put it back in seamlessly.

Just like that, a very inconspicuous hiding place was made.

Having already decided, Gu Qing Shan quickly carved out the inside, then carefully slid the cut portion back in.

Time slowly passed.

A very dignified voice echoed across the night sky.

This is the voice of a Holy Apostle.

“Surround this road, seal off the lake, no one gets in or gets out, violators will be killed without question!”

Following the voice, an endless sea of white light filled the sky.

The light came flying through the sky, descended and hover over the lake.

The light quickly receded to show a black-robed majestic-looking man.

The strongest of the Holy Apostles, the second in command of the Holy Church, Great Holy Apostle Hurt.

He’s finally here.

Of the Seven Holy Apostles, he’s the only one that can use the endless holy power he possesses to fly in the sky.

Right as he knew about the situation, Hurt had immediately started to come, it was only because the distance was too far that he took so long.

The white holy light gathered behind his back, forming a pair of wings.

He hovered lightly above, circled around the area looking for clues.

———-right as he knew Ivan got sent flying, he felt so angry his blood was almost boiling with rage.

Someone dared to disrespect a Holy Apostle on this holy land!

His younger brother was sent somewhere without any news, while he himself can’t even find the enemy.

That dumbass Kid couldn’t even keep the enemy in place!

Kid couldn’t even manage to find out why the other party wanted that painting!

This is a level of humiliation that the Holy Apostles has never felt before.

I definitely can’t let him get away! I have to catch him, return this humiliation to him a hundred— no, a thousand fold!

The wings behind him flapped strongly, pushing him around the area with great speed.

According to the Paladins surrounding this place, they found no traces of the other party escaping outside this area.

Which means he could very easily be hiding right here.

But that bastard is extremely sneaky, Hurt had to look for a very long time to be able to track him here.

Hurt’s strongest point isn’t tailing or gathering information, it’s battle.

This process of having to carefully search each and every part for clues is only making him accumulating more and more anger, slowly building up like a volcano that’s about to explode.

“That fucking bastard, just wait until I find you, I’ll make sure you receive all manners of torture possible on this world!”

Hurt couldn’t hold it anymore and shouted.

Suddenly, Hurt stopped moving in mid-air, his eyes focused on a certain point.

Very slowly and silently, he moved toward the giant rock by the lake.

That’s right… it’s this feeling.

This is Ivan’s holy stigma, even though it’s already very weak, it was still emitting a faint signal periodically.

Good job, Ivan!

Hurt held his breath and carefully checked the traces on the rock.

Sure enough.

If it weren’t for the guidance of the stigma, he would definitely not have found this place.

He kept staring at this giant rock.

Although the signs were hidden extremely well, the very fine trace of a cut was still visible to Hurt after a few moments of searching.

Looking at the intricate cut, Hurt couldn’t help but praised him silently.

To be able to cut a rock like this, not only do you need an extremely sharp sword, you also need to have exceptional sword skills.

Ivan got sent flying so far that he’s still unable to contact them probably isn’t because he was careless, but because his opponent was simply that good.

Such a strong enemy should not be left alive.

After confirming there weren’t any other suspicious presence around, Great Holy Apostle Hurt breathed in deeply.

“Very good, I’ll let you regret ever being born on this world” Hurt silently decided.

A giant gorgeous and holy pattern started to spread beneath his feet.

The Holy Church’s Mystic-type God’s Chosen Skill, certified King of the God’s Chosen Skills, [Heaven’s Judgement]

This is an extremely powerful attacking God’s Chosen Skill.

No room for begging or toying around, no room for negotiation, Hurt was determined to use all his power to send this enemy directly to the depths of pain instantly.

As the holy pattern fully manifested, black circles started in the air around Hurt.

Casually picking one of the holes, Hurt reached in to pull out a man on his dying breath.

While Hurt was looking at that man, his body suddenly burst into a white flame.

The flame extended to the man’s body, burning everything away only leaving the bones left.

At the same time, the white flame around his body also became more intense.

Hurt muttered to the bones in his hand: “Feel blessed, it’s because time is tight that I don’t have the leisure to slowly torture you”

Putting the bones back into the hole, he smirked as he walked in front of the giant rock and stood.

“Begin the judgement” he said, “I judge the being of this place to be evil”

Following his words, all the floating holes in the air combined, forming a giant black gate.

“For your unspeakable sins and evil, receive divine retribution” Hurt shouted.

The gate opened, as a giant black hand reached out, floating in mid-air.
