Chapter 594: Chapter 0594: Your Saintess Isn’t Bad
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s arrogant words, Gabriel this time harbored no anger, only solemnity!
An unprecedented solemnity.
The man before him was very strong, much stronger than he had imagined!
But he showed no sign of retreating, because he was a knight, a knight of the Holy See, and he had to defend the dignity of knighthood!
Even if his opponent was much stronger than he anticipated, he would not back down.
The dignity of a knight far outweighed his life!
"Although you are powerful, it won’t be so easy to kill me!"
As his words fell, Gabriel’s hands wielded the ancient one-handed sword and once again swung two strokes toward Ye Xunhuan!
"Swoosh!"
The moment the longsword was swung, an eerie holy white light burst from the blade, as if it could cleanse all the filth in the world.
After seeing this, Ye Xunhuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, "The Holy See’s Holy Cross Slash?"
The white light emanating from the longsword, carrying a sacred aura, charged toward Ye Xunhuan as if to annihilate him under its holy brilliance!
The next moment, Ye Xunhuan’s right hand flicked, and a cold gleam instantly appeared in his hand, followed by a flick of his wrist, and several sword blooms, like brilliant fireworks, immediately flew out!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The two forces of Sword Qi collided, causing a series of crackling noises in the air, as if electricity and water were merging together, buzzing intensely.
Seeing Ye Xunhuan dispel his Holy Cross Slash so casually sent a heavy sinking in Gabriel’s heart.
Immediately not daring to be the slightest bit careless, he swung his longsword out again.
In this moment, the glow from Gabriel’s longsword grew even more intense, and he looked like a holy angel from the Catholic Church!
However, the difference was that Gabriel had no wings!
Facing Gabriel’s fierce, tidal-like assault, Ye Xunhuan’s face remained unchanged; not only was his hand faster than Gabriel’s, but all of Gabriel’s attacks seemed to disappear into the void when facing Ye Xunhuan, creating not even the slightest ripple!
For a time, Gabriel’s heart was filled with an unprecedented level of solemnity; he knew he had met the most formidable opponent in his life.
"Bang!"
When the Sword Qi met again, the terrifying force shook the surroundings, and when the Sword Qi hit the walls, it immediately created a series of cracks, as if pierced by something sharp!
In just a moment, the originally clean corridor became a complete mess, with dust filling the air!
"Swoosh!"
Then, a cold gleam shot towards Gabriel like lightning.
Seeing the lightning-fast cold gleam coming, Gabriel’s pupils suddenly constricted into the most dangerous pinpoints, just about to block!
But before he could act, an icy chill immediately spread across his neck, sending a shiver down his spine as if he were plummeting into an icy abyss.
With a smile that was more a taunt than genuine amusement, Ye Xunhuan looked at Gabriel playfully, "I told you, you’re really not qualified to stop me. Yet, why do you insist on courting death?"
Gazing at the nearby Ye Xunhuan, a chill pervaded Gabriel’s heart!
"Want to die?"
"Then kill me!"
Gabriel made no attempt to resist, knowing that at this moment, he had lost any chance to counter Ye Xunhuan; with but a slight twitch of Ye Xunhuan’s right hand, his head could be severed from his body!
He didn’t believe that he could dodge Ye Xunhuan’s sword strike, as quick as lightning.
Looking at Gabriel’s readiness to face death, Ye Xunhuan let out a slow chuckle, "Since you wish for death, I will grant it to you!"
Having said this, Ye Xunhuan proceeded to execute Gabriel!
But the next moment, an abrupt voice immediately rang out, "Marshal, stop!"
Hearing this abrupt and deep voice that sounded angry, Ye Xunhuan’s lips slowly curled into a smile.
Gabriel, on the other hand, opened his eyes that had just closed.
"Old man, I thought you weren’t going to show up," said Ye Xunhuan without looking back. "I was just wondering how long your people would last against me!"
The newcomer was none other than Nicholas, who had not been present before. If he had been, he definitely wouldn’t have hidden from Ye Xunhuan.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to hide, but that he knew it was useless; this guy would definitely use bloody methods to force you out.
Upon hearing that someone had intruded into the church, Nicholas immediately thought of Ye Xunhuan—other than this lunatic, this demon, no one else would dare to cause trouble here!
So Nicholas rushed over immediately, and it was fortunate that he did, otherwise the papacy would have lost a strong knight.
"Marshal, you madman, demon, God will not forgive your deeds, and you will surely go to hell after death..."
"Hey, buddy, I’m not one of your believers, nor am I from your European countries," Ye Xunhuan said indifferently. "Our side is ruled by the Jade Emperor!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Nicholas’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
Gabriel, meanwhile, was stunned and just stared blankly at Ye Xunhuan in front of him.
He’s the Marshal?
The Marshal who is one of the ten great overlords?
I sparred with the Marshal?
"Buddy, you showed up too early. I was actually thinking of discussing life with your Saintess. She has a nice figure and looks quite pretty..."
"Marshal, are you trying to provoke our papacy?" Nicholas’s face immediately turned somber.
The Saintess is the most respected person in the papacy, second only to the Pope. And now Ye Xunhuan actually had the audacity to verbally insult their Saintess—it was unbearable!
"Don’t get worked up, I see you’re too tense. I was just joking," Ye Xunhuan said as he took the longsword from Gabriel’s neck. "Although your Saintess is charming, I really don’t want to be on the minds of your Catholic followers!"
"Marshal, what on earth are you doing here?"
Ye Xunhuan lit a cigarette for himself, took a light drag, and said to Nicholas, "Old pal, we haven’t seen each other for such a long time, don’t you want to catch up?"
"I have nothing to say to you. What are you doing here really?"
"Don’t play dumb with me. Who was it that interrupted your mass last time?"
"You mean you want to find out who’s behind the attempt on your life?"
"You could say that!"
"It was Luo Hanlin from your Huaxia!"
"Are you sure?"
"Positive!" Nicholas said very confidently. "We’ve checked, and he came to apologize to us!"
"He must have given you a fair bit of money, otherwise you guys wouldn’t let it go so easily..."
"Marshal, haven’t you heard of not pointing out what’s obvious?"
To this Ye Xunhuan chuckled, "Pal, let’s make a deal!"
"We have nothing to trade with you!"
"I think I might go talk to your Saintess. She’s not bad, and I heard she used to admire me a lot..."
"Marshal, what the hell do you want?" Nicholas roared furiously.
If this bastard really set his sights on their Saintess, then...
The mere thought made Nicholas break out in cold sweats.
