Because of their strength level, they could easily tell from the pressure of their aura that these three giant dragons were only at the Blazing Sun Class Initial Stage and were not worth fearing. Therefore, the three of them gradually shifted their attention to Sun Fei.
At this moment, the young man was shocked to discover that what he had initially thought was just a group of unruly and reclusive noblemen with women, protected by guards and seeking thrills, turned out to be quite powerful. The guards and palace maids were all experts around the fifth or sixth Star Class, yet they were so young. This was rare not only in such a remote place, but even in the Northern Region. However, this was not the whole story that surprised them.
What truly shocked the three high-ranking Church masters were the two men and one woman in the center of the crowd.
The woman with long, dark hair, pure and beautiful like Goddess, possessed an indescribable and strange aura, as if she were a deity, incomparably noble, making people involuntarily feel ashamed of their own appearance. The woman with long, fiery red hair, whose beauty was in no way inferior to the woman with black hair, had an even more mysterious aura, which they could not fathom with their own eyes.
Most importantly, the young man standing at the front, who looked to be in his early twenties, wore a white robe as pure as snow. Standing there quietly, he seemed to be detached from the world, without releasing any aura or power, yet they couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and reverence.
Master!
An absolute powerhouse!
The three powerful figures from the Church exchanged glances, each seeing the shock and wariness in the other's eyes.
Having abandoned his previous aloof demeanor, the wrinkled, bald, beardless, and eyebrowless priest at the head of the group nodded slightly to Sun Fei and tentatively asked, "I am Collina, the sixth Judgment Divine Envoy of the Sicily Island Judgment Temple. These two are Hening and Skeltenberg, the tenth and eleventh Judgment Divine Envoy, respectively. We have come here in pursuit of an evil heretic. May I ask who you are?"
"Hahaha, you three despicable hypocrites! What, now that you see he has power, you've finally dropped your arrogant attitude? How hypocritical! Bah!"
Before Sun Fei could speak, El Shaarawy, the Young Supremes of the Red-Black Empire who had been observing coldly, suddenly burst into laughter, jokingly cursing, "Calling you three pig-brains is an understatement! This place is only a little over two thousand miles from Chambord City. This man before us, dressed in a white royal robe, with two queens who are radiant and unparalleled in the world, and accompanied by exceptionally skilled guards and maids, such a display and aura—in the entire Northern Region, besides that one, who else could possibly be worthy of it?"
" The Human Emperor of the Northern Region?"
" King of Chambord?"
" One Fist Spanning the Heavens?"
The three unparalleled masters of the Holy Church exclaimed in surprise at the same instant, calling out Sun Fei by three different names.
After they finished speaking, the three of them subconsciously exchanged a glance.
This time, however, the expressions on the three people's faces were all different.
However, before the leader, Collina, could say anything, the fat-headed, 11th Judgment Divine Envoy, Hening, suddenly relaxed and burst into laughter after learning Sun Fei's identity.
"So it's Alexander. This is excellent! Lord Collina, the three of us are currently hunting down the evil heretic El Shaarawy. Alexander, as the Pope of the Black-Robed Holy Temple, one of the branches of the Holy Church, why don't you hurry up and take down this evil sorcerer?"
Upon hearing this, Collina, Sun Fei, and Shaarawy all changed their expressions immediately.
Collina was unhappy with Hening's attitude.
According to the Church headquarters, Pope Alexander the Black-Robed Holy Temple is arrogant and unruly, and has repeatedly defied his superiors. Even before inheriting the Black-Robed Holy Temple, he killed several high-ranking clergy members of the Northern Region Diocese. During Alexander's wedding, the Northern Region Diocese almost completely broke ties with him. He has always been hostile to the Church and will not give face to the Judgment Divine Envoy.
Hening's blunt rebuke could easily displease Alexander and cause changes to today's mission.
El Shaarawy, however, was hearing this for the first time: the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ] was actually the Pope of one of the branches of the Holy Church —why did no one know this?
In the past decade, the Church has conferred papal titles upon thirty-one branch sects, but the King of Chambord is definitely not among them. Could this man be a hidden pawn planted by those old dogs of the Church? If so, then my situation today is truly worrisome.
Sun Fei's expression changed, as he couldn't stand Hening's almost commanding tone.
His Majesty the King had never had any goodwill toward the Holy Church; otherwise, he wouldn't have refused the summons to go to Sicily Island to fight the dragon. Hearing this, he sneered inwardly.
If it weren't for some inconvenience, judging from this fat guy's words and the lewd look in his eyes when he looked at Angela and Elena, Sun Fei would have beaten him to a pulp long ago, even if he didn't kill the fat man.
This series of changes suddenly made the atmosphere tense.
But Hening, that fat pig, was completely oblivious.
Seeing that Sun Fei ignored him, he flew into a rage and shouted, " Alexander, are you deaf? I ordered you to take action immediately and capture this fiend! Humph!"
At this point, Hening's gaze swept over Elena and Anqi, and he chuckled, a forced smile on his face, saying, "Once this matter is settled, you'll need to explain to me properly what happened to those three dragons. As one of the popes of a branch of the Church, how could you stand with the Dragon Clan? If you can't provide a reasonable explanation, hehe, don't blame me for turning ruthless."
This guy has been bullying others for too long; he's truly incredibly stupid.
Collina's expression changed drastically, realizing something was wrong, but it was too late to stop it. Just then, a crisp, cold shout came from the other side. Before anyone could react, a blue light flashed, and the air suddenly became much colder.
Hening, whose ferocious smile had not yet faded, wore an expression of lingering fear.
Suddenly, a layer of deep blue ice spread across his right shoulder, covering most of his right arm in the blink of an eye. It continued to spread as if it were alive, trying to completely engulf the fat pig.
Hening cried out in alarm and roared as he channeled his Holy Power to frantically resist. With his strength, it took him quite a while to remove the terrifying deep blue ice layer. Pieces of fabric from the right arm of his red magic robe fell off like blood-red butterflies, revealing his greasy, white skin, which looked like shaved pork.
Opposite him, behind Sun Fei.
The Valkyrie Elena, who had remained silent all along, held her divine bow. The bowstring, as smooth as silk, was drawn back, and three arrows formed from condensed ice magic were held between her slender, fair fingers, which were as white as freshly peeled jade. The arrows were covered with strange runes, and the aura they exuded was actually above the Blazing Sun Class Great Perfection.
The Valkyrie's expression was cold, her killing intent palpable.
