To restore the glory of the Church, it was our bounden duty!
The atmosphere inside the church had descended into unprecedented fervor.
This seemed to be the atmosphere this place was meant to have—for the people of the Church, the God Lord, the Pope, and the Saintess were heavens above all else.
Compared to them, every other authority was naturally insignificant. What did the royal family amount to? They should have been overthrown long ago, so that the God Lord's grace alone could spread across this land.
On top of that, the order to strike at Xu Shi happened to satisfy many people's wishes, making the scene seem even crazier than any previous worship service.
It was not just the outsiders. Even the Templar Knights on the platform were the same.
The eleven Templar Knights already had factions among them. There were quite a few radicals opposed to Xu Shi, and hearing things develop exactly as they had expected naturally filled them with joy.
Take Piao Guochang and Ji Bochang, for example... They had long had enough of Xu Shi's attitude these past few days and wished he would die sooner rather than later.
Of course, if anyone hated Xu Shi the most, then little Luo Yu was unquestionably the first in line.
From Lu Baiyan's perspective, the excitement in his eyes was obvious—his fists were clenched tight, his eyes had brightened, and while he did not quite look ready to devour Xu Shi alive, he clearly wanted him dead as soon as possible.
This was really... The squinty-eyed man felt a little helpless. He had once thought this kid was interesting and had considered getting to know him better. Hot-blooded youngsters were fun, after all.
But ever since Xu Shi appeared, the other's changes had become a little off.
