Seeing Sister Li's curiosity, the saint handed over the book in her hand. When Xuan Li saw the title on the book clearly, she was so frightened that she immediately returned the book, not daring to take another look at the content.
Some blame the saint for being abrupt.
Xuan Li said, "Holy girl, this is the Word of Holy Light, the most important book of the divine religion. How could you just show it to me casually?"
The saint seemed a little confused by Xuan Li's words, she scratched her head and said blankly.
"Really, but aren't books just for reading? Why can I read them, but Sister Li can't?"
Xuan Li looked at the canary-like saint in front of her, feeling angry and amused at the same time. But as soon as this emotion appeared, she thought of the Pope's decision today, and she became worried again.
"Holy Lady, do you know what the Pope announced in front of all of us today?"
The saint seemed to have the ability to read minds. She just glanced at Xuan Li's eyes and understood what the other party meant.
"Is sister worried about my marriage?"
Xuan Li nodded heavily and looked over worriedly.
"Aren't you worried?"
"Why should I worry?"
The Saint didn't seem to understand why Xuan Li was worried, so she asked this question.
When Xuan Li saw this, she immediately said anxiously.
"You are only sixteen years old. How can you get married at the age of sixteen? And how could such a thing as a contest for a bride happen to a saint? I very much doubt that His Highness the Pope is old and confused."
In the Theocratic Empire, only Xuan Li dared to call the Pope that way without being punished by her soul. When the saint in front of her heard this, instead of being angry, she giggled.
Xuan Li looked at the saint and smiled, and said anxiously.
"Don't laugh. It's about your future happiness. Why do you look like it has nothing to do with you?"
The saint stopped laughing, pulled Xuan Li to sit next to her, and then explained.
"I didn't agree to the Pope unconditionally. I told him that if you want to marry me, you must defeat me. Maybe the Pope didn't tell you this."
Hearing this, Xuan Li was stunned for a while, and then her anxious face suddenly turned into a smile.
"Holy girl, you scared me to death. I thought..."
The saint smiled and said, "Sister, you should feel at ease now."
Xuan Li laughed.
At this moment, the news of the saint's contest for marriage was spreading at lightning speed throughout the empire and beyond. Those major families who heard the news were briefly surprised, and their faces showed a look of ecstasy, and they gathered together one after another.
He has gathered the most successful children in the family and is preparing to participate in this once-in-a-century event.
The high-ranking officials within the Divine Religion Empire would naturally not give up this opportunity to change their family's destiny. As they were ready to make a move, they secretly began to transfer back the family's children who had been secretly cultivated outside.
Different from everyone who was busy competing to find a bride, Xiaoqiang had secretly sneaked back to White Tiger City. In order not to reveal his traces, he used his stealth card to take advantage of the night to arrive at the house where Wanrou lived. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wanrou's tearful eyes.
Look.
"Sister Wanrou, what's wrong with you?"
Wanrou was feeling sad and didn't notice that Xiaoqiang had come to the room. When the voice sounded, Wanrou instantly turned from sadness to joy as if she heard the sound of nature, and she threw herself into Xiaoqiang's arms.
"Master, where have you been? I've been looking for you for a long time."
Seeing that Wanrou was in grief, Xiaoqiang felt sorry for this big sister and asked curiously.
"Sister Wanrou, what happened?"
Wanrou wiped the tears from her eyes and choked, "Master, your parents are missing."
Upon hearing the news, Xiaoqiang felt as if he was struck by lightning, and the magic power in his body began to overflow uncontrollably.
"Sister Wanrou, tell me quickly, what's going on?"
Wanrou hurriedly told Xiaoqiang everything she knew. After learning that his parents were abducted by a wave of well-trained men in black, he began to curb the violence in his heart and think seriously.
"Sister Wanrou, have you seen those men in black?"
Wanrou nodded, "I was hiding in the distance and only saw a rough glimpse. Because there were so many of them, I didn't dare to approach them for fear of being exposed. However, I am certain that those people seemed to be from the military, and..."
Speaking of this, Wanrou seemed to have thought of something, and quickly took out a small badge from her clothes and handed it over.
"This is what they dropped when they left. Master, take a look."
After receiving the badge, Xiaoqiang understood the identity of the men in black just by looking at it. Because the badge in his hand had the pattern of angel wings, there was no need to guess that it must be the work of the Divine Religion Empire.
"Master, have you discovered anything?" Wanrou asked.
Xiaoqiang nodded, "Yes, this is the symbol of the Divine Religion Empire, and it should be their Temple Knights."
"Ah!" Wanrou was shocked, "Why do they want to arrest the young master's parents?"
"I don't know this either."
"Master, what should we do?"
Xiaoqiang didn't respond, but fell into thinking, because he still didn't understand what the relationship was between him and the divine empire, and why since Lu Feng appeared, many things were targeted at him. Could it be that he was really like Vilia?
He said that he was the illegitimate son of the Pope.
Such an idea is of course wishful thinking, and Xiaoqiang will not really take such unreliable speculation seriously, so before he can get definite evidence, he needs to collect a lot of information to determine the whereabouts of his parents and the gods.
Teach the empire to grasp its own goals.
At night, Wanrou went to bed early.
Although she came to Xiaoqiang's room again before falling asleep, originally thinking of lying on the same bed with her young master, but after seeing that the young master was always concentrating on thinking and had no such thoughts, Wanrou returned to her room very wisely.
.
However, when leaving, she still thoughtfully served the young master food and drink, then turned back three times and reluctantly left the room.
The yard was unusually quiet in the early hours of the morning. Except for one or two restless kittens meowing and making noise, which made people upset, the air at night seemed calm. There was no restlessness in the air during the previous college competition, as if all of a sudden
The child has returned to the starting point.
The spring cat on the roof was still meowing. The cold night wind seemed to be unable to stop the hormonal passion at all. It was not until a shrill scream suddenly broke the peace of the night that the spring cat stopped meowing.
Xiaoqiang was still sitting quietly in the room, waiting for someone, and when the shrill meowing on the roof stopped, he understood that the person he was waiting for had finally arrived.
The door was gently pushed open, and Hera suddenly appeared in front of him in a stunning costume. She knelt down on one knee without hesitation and surrendered from the bottom of her heart.
