Saint Monica's Impulse / Saint Monica, You Don't Want...
Their eyes were filled with intense hatred, as if their former companions were their enemies who had killed their fathers or stolen their wives.
At the window, Qin Chu's smile grew even wider. Sure enough, after possessing Divinity and the Sin of Desire Divine Authority, he could manipulate the followers of Sin of Desire to a certain extent and instill certain signals in them.
Although they all worship the same deity, they belong to different sects, and the hatred between different sects is often more intense than that between heretics.
The message they received was that their own beliefs were orthodox, while everything else was heresy, and heresy had to be eradicated.
On a distant hillside, Saint Monica frowned.
She was stronger than the other believers, so she didn't lose her mind and go insane like them.
That was Divine Oracle directly from the Lord of Pleasure, Saint Monica could not refuse. However, she knew that now was not the time to kill Qin Chu, or rather, she did not have enough power to kill Qin Chu.
Therefore, although Saint Monica came in accordance with the will of the Lord of Pleasure, she did not come completely.
She was observing the battlefield's trajectory. If the two sides were evenly matched, she would intervene, becoming the final straw that broke the camel's back.
However, with the battlefield in chaos, Saint Monica keenly sensed that something was amiss.
Without the slightest hesitation, the cunning woman turned and left.
Saint Monica was unaware that Qin Chu had seen through her entire reaction.
Right now, Qin Chu is contemplating... whether or not to take this opportunity to kill this woman?
Finally, it's all sorted out. Today is my two kids' birthday, and I managed to keep up with the updates.
Chapter 326 Saint Monica's Impulse (Seeking monthly tickets and recommendations!)
Saint Monica is a formidable opponent, not someone you can simply deal with at will.
Although both are at level 90 or above, this woman's combat power is probably far greater than that of the Demonic Beast Grand Prince Daiaboliq. Beneath her gentle elegance lies cunning and madness, and her full, soft body contains terrifying energy.
Saint Monica not only possesses the formidable power of a high priestess of the Cult of the Earth Mother Church, but also the blessings from the Void bestowed upon her by worshipping the Lord of Pleasure. She is perhaps even more troublesome than Wadsworth and Augustus, and is not an easy opponent to deal with.
Saint Monica wasn't originally on Qin Chu's list of targets for immediate revenge... but now, the situation is a bit delicate.
On the one hand, Phil, residing within his own body, desperately needs a body.
On the other hand, having acquired the Divinity of the Lord of Pleasure and the Sin of Desire Divine Authority, the blessings Saint Monica received from the Lord of Pleasure would likely be of little use to her, significantly reducing the difficulty of dealing with him.
Another point is that if Qin Chu could control Saint Monica and let Phil take over the body in place of Saint Monica's original consciousness, the benefits to Qin Chu would be absolutely enormous.
This is equivalent to the Earth Mother Church, one of the three major human powers, falling directly into his control.
With this power, dealing with Augustus, Wadsworth, and Carlos will be much easier.
Qin Chu's concern lay in the fact that Saint Monica was very powerful. Even if the blessing bestowed upon her by the Lord of Pleasure Saint Monica useless, she herself was an extremely powerful expert, and he was not entirely confident that he could defeat her.
A cunning fellow like Saint Monica has countless ways to save her life.
If I actually take action but fail to capture Saint Monica, it would mean that both sides have completely broken off relations, and the situation would become quite troublesome.
Qin Chu's hesitation didn't last long. He was joking; Saint Monica already wanted to kill him, so why worry about a complete falling out?
If there's a chance to kill the other person, then don't hesitate for a second.
Moreover, Qin Chu was certain that even if he wanted to kill Saint Monica and failed, Saint Monica would never dare to openly break with him, the Hero. The person he should be worried about now was not him, but Saint Monica.
"Antia, come with me."
Upon hearing this, Antia simply nodded slightly, and the next second her body suddenly disappeared back into Qin Chu's body.
Right before Angelica and Antasia's eyes, Qin Chu's figure gracefully floated away from the sky.
"Ekaterina, Sylph... burn all the bodies."
Qin Chu's voice echoed in the ears of Ekaterina, Sylph, and many other women.
A hint of joy appeared on everyone's faces; Qin Chu had finally woken up.
They can finally rest easy.
The bodies were quickly piled up, and as Sylph threw a fire onto them, thick black smoke began to billow in the night sky.
Qin Chu had his own plans. Among the followers of the Lord of Pleasure who died this time, the vast majority were commoner mercenaries, adventurers and soldiers, as well as private soldiers of nobles. The deaths of these people would not cause any trouble.
The real problem lies with those thirty-odd high-ranking nobles.
Although it was said that these nobles had gone mad and attacked Qin Chu on their own initiative, once the news got out, it would still cause a huge rift between Qin Chu and the noble class. Although Qin Chu was not afraid of the noble class, it was better to avoid trouble.
On the other hand, there are also a large number of clergy.
Phil is destined to become the High Priest of the Earth Mother Church in the future. Damage to the reputation of the Earth Mother Church will not benefit Qin Chu in the slightest.
In Qin Chu's mind, he had practically regarded the Earth Mother Church as his private property.
What a pity, so many believers.
Qin Chu personally eliminated these believers, because under the call of the Lord of Pleasure, these pitiful believers had already burned their lives and souls to ashes; otherwise, so many people would have been an inexhaustible source of faith.
These beliefs, in turn, can enhance the strength of the Divinity within one's body.
Qin Chu sighed with some regret. He finally understood why the Lord of Pleasure had gone so crazy. After all, it would be strange if a god wasn't angry when his most important Divinity was taken away.
On the other side, Saint Monica's expression was somewhat gloomy.
She couldn't understand why the different sects under the Supreme Lord of Pleasure, who had been closely united and cooperating towards the common goal of eliminating Qin Chu, would suddenly fall into internal strife.
Saint Monica knew very well that although they all worshipped the Lord of Pleasure, the conflicts between different sects were even more serious than the conflict between the Bliss Witch Coven and the Holy Church. The Elegant School, the Bliss Witch Coven, and other messy sects all wanted to completely eradicate the other sects and prove that they were the only orthodox ones.
Among these many sects, the Bliss Witch Coven the most powerful. It's no surprise that the Bliss Witch Coven's principles and doctrines, combined with the openness of the Orwell Empire, make it incredibly easy to attract followers.
This has led other sects, such as the Elegant School, to hate the Bliss Witch Coven the most. When the Bliss Witch Coven suffered a severe blow some time ago, the Elegant School even held an unprecedentedly grand banquet to celebrate.
But since they are now gathered together to cooperate because of the Divine Oracle of the Lord of Pleasure, any major conflicts must be suppressed. Saint Monica was certain that no believer would dare to disobey the will of the Lord of Pleasure.
Saint Monica would never forget what she had just witnessed: a large number of believers who were fighting suddenly stopped what they were doing, staring blankly into the Void, and then, as if they had gone mad, they turned their swords on their comrades who had just been fighting side by side.
The scene was so eerie that it sent chills down Saint Monica's spine.
Could it be that within the Hero's Palace, there exists some being capable of interfering with or even altering the influence of gods on believers?
Because she had thought of this, Saint Monica turned and left without looking back.
In the darkness of night, under the moonlight, Saint Monica's body cast a long shadow on the ground, like a cold wind sweeping across it. Her soft, light golden hair and the holy papal robes fluttered behind her, exuding charm.
She needed to return to the church as soon as possible to figure out how to explain the large number of clergy members of the Earth Mother Church Cult participating in the siege of the Hero.
Moreover, we must find a way to completely eliminate the Hero.
The Hero summoned this time is extraordinary, not someone to be easily dealt with. Perhaps I shouldn't be so arrogant; sometimes, cooperating with others is very necessary.
Some time ago, Augustus suddenly came to her door, hoping to cooperate with her, but Saint Monica refused. However, it seems that the difficulty of defeating the Hero is beyond her expectations, so perhaps cooperating with Augustus would be a good choice.
Suddenly, Saint Monica had a premonition.
A powerful aura was rapidly approaching.
Is it Qin Chu?
Her brow furrowed slightly, and she quickened her pace once more. The sharp night wind whistled past her ears like knives, and the buildings and trees around her flashed by like phantoms.
One is chasing, the other is fleeing.
Saint Monica was already extremely powerful, and when she went all out, her speed was as fast as lightning. Before long, the Earth Mother Church had appeared in front of her.
Without the slightest hesitation, Saint Monica went straight into the Church.
Even Hero wouldn't dare to attack me within the Church, would they?
Inside the Sanctum of the Earth Mother Church, Saint Monica's graceful figure paced back and forth, and even with Saint Monica's composure, she couldn't help but feel somewhat flustered at this moment.
He thought that by eliminating Saint Onions, Saint Inas, and the previous Pope Florence, the entire Church was completely under his control, but he never expected to face such a difficult problem so soon.
After a moment's hesitation, Saint Monica placed her finger on her ear, preparing to contact Augustus. She didn't know what Augustus's purpose was in wanting to murder the Hero, but if she had an accomplice like Augustus, the chances of killing the Hero would increase significantly.
Just then, hurried footsteps sounded outside the Sanctum, and a nun rushed in from the doorway. "Your Holiness, the Hero Qin Chu has come to visit."
Perhaps because she was walking too fast, the little nun's cheeks were flushed, her breathing was a little rapid, and her full chest was heaving.
Saint Monica didn't notice the little nun's reaction; her eyes narrowed slightly: it really was Qin Chu.
Qin Chu dared to chase after him even though he had already returned to the Church. Did this man think he could stand against the entire Earth Mother Church with his strength?
She didn't think Qin Chu was a blindly arrogant fool; what exactly did he rely on?
Several thoughts flashed through Saint Monica's mind in an instant, and she quickly made a decision. "Please let him in."
Taking a deep breath, Saint Monica suppressed the turmoil in her heart, and her face regained its elegance and gentleness. A faint smile played on her lips, and her slender fingers tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. Every move she made was full of alluring charm.
In that case, let's have a head-on confrontation with the Hero.
Before long, a figure appeared at the entrance of the Sanctum. Who else could it be but the Hero Qin Chu?
He came alone.
Before even stepping into the Sanctum, Qin Chu's face was already beaming with smiles. "Your Holiness, I apologize for my intrusion in visiting so late at night."
Saint Monica's face had regained its elegant, reserved, and somewhat gentle and charming smile. Her full hips and thighs lifted off the chair, and she glanced at Qin Chu, about to speak, when her eyes momentarily became slightly dazed.
Even breathing paused briefly.
Huh?
The person is still the same, and their appearance hasn't changed at all, but they seem to be more charming than before.
Her heart seemed to flutter inexplicably.
But Saint Monica is Saint Monica after all. She quickly suppressed the slightly strange reaction in her heart, a beautiful smile curving her lips. She swayed her slender waist and went to meet him. The two had a brief embrace, and she could clearly feel how hot Qin Chu's body was.
This burning sensation spread through my body like a virus.
For some inexplicable reason, Saint Monica felt a strange reaction within herself.
She struggled to maintain her alluring smile, "Your Hero, what brings you here so late at night?"
Qin Chu chuckled, his gaze sweeping unabashedly over Saint Monica's voluptuous body.
That look in his eyes was quite aggressive.
The places her gaze swept over even made Saint Monica feel as if a rough, large hand was brushing against her body.
Goosebumps involuntarily rose on her fair skin.
Deep down, an impulse even welled up uncontrollably.
Sorry, because it was my two kids' birthdays, I haven't had time to spend with them lately. Yesterday, I played with them until late last night on their birthdays, so I woke up late today and the update is a bit late.

Chapter 327 Saint Monica, You Don't Want To Either (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Recommendations)
Chapter 327 Saint Monica, you didn't want this either... (Seeking monthly tickets and recommendations)
Saint Monica felt strange about her inexplicable reaction. She was confident in her moral character and had lived in the open-minded Orwell Empire for many years. Although she had met many excellent men, she had always maintained her chastity.
She has never engaged in any inappropriate behavior with any man.
Of course, there are even fewer cases involving the same sex.
She has a husband in name only, but it's just a cover to avoid being harassed.
That man was nothing more than a puppet manipulated by Saint Monica. He never even shared a bed with Saint Monica, let alone touched Saint Monica hand.
The Pope of the Holy Church and the High Priest of the Earth Mother Church are both allowed to marry. In addition, Saint Monica has a graceful and voluptuous figure and a beautiful appearance. Naturally, such a woman would not lack suitors.
In fact, even without her beautiful face and alluring figure, Saint Monica's status as the leader of the Earth Mother Church Cult and one of the three strongest humans would have guaranteed her countless suitors.
In the empire, countless handsome young men dream of becoming Saint Monica's little puppy, because if they could catch Saint Monica's eye, they could immediately skip decades of hard work.
For men who no longer want to strive, Saint Monica's allure is hundreds of times greater than that of girls their own age.
So over the years, Saint Monica was constantly being confessed to by all sorts of handsome men, and things only improved a little after she got married.
Among these men were young and handsome, mature and gentlemanly, imposing and strong, and even some cute and innocent types. Saint Monica could choose any of them she wanted. If Saint Monica really had that kind of idea, it wouldn't be difficult for her to get any kind of man. Not to mention one, even seven or eight, thirty or fifty, would be no problem at all.
It's not unusual for someone to have only one marriage while having a bunch of lovers in private; such a situation is not surprising at all among the upper echelons of the empire.
Saint Monica never fell in love with any man; her heart remained undisturbed, for she wanted to offer her purest body to that supreme being.
