Chapter 674 Attending the Saintess Canonization Ceremony
"You mean, Bai Dingyang went to the Guangming Temple?"
Jiang Chen took a deep breath and asked.
"Well, I went early in the morning."
Ellie nodded.
"Do you know when you'll be back?"
Jiang Chen continued to ask.
"He said he was going to pray and he should be back soon."
Ellie thought for a while and said.
"Okay, I get it,"
Jiang Chen nodded slightly and then said: "Then we will wait at the altar in the atrium. Please help me keep an eye on it. If you see Bai Dingyang coming back, tell me as soon as possible."
"Okay, Master Fanchen."
Ai Lili responded and said: "I will go to the front hall and wait. I will tell you when I see the bishop comes back."
"Go ahead."
Jiang Chen raised his hand.
Immediately, Ellie bowed and bowed, turned around and walked towards the front hall,
Only Jiang Chen and Zhu Yeqing were left in the atrium.
"Do you have such a high status in the Holy See of Light?"
Zhuyeqing asked with surprise: "How did you do it?"
"A coincidence."
Jiang Chen said casually and perfunctorily.
"Um."
Knowing that Jiang Chen didn't want to say more, Zhuye Qing changed the question: "What should we do now?"
"What should I do? Just wait."
Jiang Chen replied quietly.
"I know I have to wait, but Bai Dingyang..."
Zhuye Qing stopped before she finished speaking. She saw a nun in a white dress passing by.
This is a church, and she doesn't dare talk about these things openly.
"Typing."
Jiang Chen reminded.
"Um."
Bamboo Leaf Green nodded.
Immediately, Jiang Chen received a message from a friend.
[Zhu Yeqing: Bai Dingyang has already sensed the danger, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with. If he is prepared, it will be difficult for us to complete our mission. 】
[Fanchen: Don’t think too much. He just had a hunch. He probably doesn’t know what the danger is. We should stick to the original plan.]
[Zhuye Qing: By the way, didn’t he go to the Temple of Light? Do you think it’s possible for us to kill him on his way back? 】
[Fang Chen: Do you think it is done by walking? It is all teleported, there is no way. 】
[Zhu Yeqing: Can we just wait here? 】
[Fanchen: There is no other way to wait.]
The two fell into silence after chatting.
The atrium of the church was very quiet. Occasionally, monks and nuns from the Holy See would pass by, but they would only take a curious look at Jiang Chen and Zhu Yeqing and would not disturb them.
In this way, nearly two hours passed.
Jiang Chen squatted on the ground in boredom, and kept playing with the grass on the ground with his fingers.
"Didn't that nun named Ellie say it's fast?"
Zhu Yeqing looked at Jiang Chen squatting on the ground and couldn't help but ask.
"She said she should be back soon."
Jiang Chen corrected him, and then murmured: "However, it has been two hours, and it is indeed a long time to wait."
With that said, he stood up and prepared to ask Ellie.
At this moment, at the stone door leading from the front hall to the atrium, Ellie in a white dress walked over.
"Lord Fanchen."
She shouted respectfully.
"I was about to go find you. How's it going? Have you seen Bai Dingyang or any news about his return?"
Jiang Chen quickly asked.
"I just received the news that Bishop Bai Dingyang will not reply today."
Ellie replied.
"Why?"
Jiang Chen looked stunned and asked in confusion.
"It is said that the saint canonization ceremony will be held in the temple tomorrow, and Bishop Bai Dingyang said that he would just attend the ceremony before returning," Ai Lili replied.
"Is tomorrow the saint canonization ceremony..."
Jiang Chen groaned, feeling extremely surprised.
He didn't expect that the canonization ceremony would come so quickly, nor did he expect that Bai Dingyang would have to attend the ceremony before returning!
"Lord Fanchen, if you have something important, you can also contact Hall Master Gewei."
Ai Lili then said: "Bishop Bai Dingyang sent an order back, saying that in his absence, the Lord of the Judgment Hall Gewei should be in charge of the affairs related to the Guangming Church in Qiantian City."
"It's no use looking for Gewei."
Jiang Chen's brows were almost knitted together at this moment.
The time limit for the assassination mission is 24 hours. If Bai Dingyang is in the temple all the time, there will be no chance to carry out the assassination.
If he had waited until he finished attending the ceremony the next day, 24 hours would have passed long ago!
"Is it time to declare the mission failed?"
Zhuyeqing's face looked a little uncomfortable.
"There is no other way, I have to go to the Temple of Light."
Jiang Chen took a deep breath and walked towards the outside of the church. There was no way he would give up on this mission.
Zhuyeqing didn't say anything and followed closely behind.
Soon, the two left the church.
"You're not planning to go to the Temple of Light to take action, are you?"
On the main city avenue, Zhu Yeqing asked.
"I'm not that stupid."
Jiang Chen stopped and looked at Zhuye Qing: "Don't go to the temple. Our mission will be easily exposed there. Let Erliang follow you. If I need help, I will contact you at any time."
"I know, I'm waiting for your news."
Zhuyeqing nodded.
Immediately, a wisp of black shadow sprang out from the shadow under Jiang Chen's feet and entered the shadow of Zhu Yeqing.
Jiang Chen came to the large teleportation array in Qiantian City alone.
The magic circle flashed with light, and he disappeared from the spot.
[You have been teleported to the Heavenly City (Imperial City)!]
At the system's prompt, Jiang Chen appeared in the large teleportation array in front of the central square of the imperial city.
Twenty minutes later, he walked along the main road of the Imperial City and arrived in front of the Temple of Light.
Passing through the fan-shaped door, he entered the outer hall of the temple, which was covered with gold leaf.
There are many nuns and monks coming and going here.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chen's eyes were startled and he stopped where he was.
He was surprised to find that Bai Dingyang was in the outer hall!
The latter was wearing a white robe and was talking to a middle-aged man also wearing a white robe.
"Bishop Bai Dingyang!"
Jiang Chen quickly walked over and said hello with a smile.
Bai Dingyang was startled for a moment, and then he followed his voice and said, "It turns out he is the Holy Son of the mortal world!"
"Long time no see. How are you doing, Bishop Bai?"
Jiang Chen said politely.
"good."
Bai Dingyang said with a smile on his face: "My eyelids have been twitching this morning, fearing a bad omen, but I didn't expect to meet the Holy Son of the World!"
