Chapter 1804 - 1680: The Pope Returns

Chapter 1804: Chapter 1680: The Pope Returns

At the same time.

No one knew that within the European Church, an ordinary figure stepped into the Church Headquarters.

"Stop, who are you?"

The Church’s guard noticed the ordinary-looking blond man and immediately shouted.

"This is a sacred place of the Church, how did you get in? Get out immediately!"

The young guard shouted.

A dozen people immediately looked at the man warily.

"Don’t you even recognize me?"

The ordinary-looking blond man gently raised his head, revealing his face.

"I don’t care who you are, come with me to the Judgement Department immediately. You’ve infiltrated the Church, we need to investigate your identity!"

The Guard Captain shouted.

After saying that, over a dozen guards immediately surrounded the man.

"Ah."

Facing the approaching guards, the man gently waved his robe and sent the guards flying.

They lightly fell to the ground.

"Who exactly are you?"

The only standing Guard Captain said in a low voice, "Let me tell you, our Church is under the influence of Lord Ye of Nine Tribulations City. You should know what happens if you act recklessly in the Church!"

The name Ye Qingfeng now shook the world, and Lord Ye’s reputation in the Martial Artist World was synonymous with the God of Kill.

The Church no longer had many experts, but with Ye Qingfeng’s illustrious name, it could control most of Europe.

"Lord Ye!"

The man’s voice was low, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, emanating through his body.

The Guard Captain’s legs began to tremble as he felt the terrifying killing intent, breaking out in cold sweat.

"Who are you?"

At this moment, an elder descended from the sky, shouting sternly.

"Eis Elder, save me, kill this madman!"

The Guard Captain shouted urgently.

However.

When Eis Elder landed and saw the man’s ordinary looks, his body trembled and directly knelt down with a "thud".

He exclaimed in shock, "Your Holiness—"

The man raised his hand to stop Eis Elder’s words.

"Gather all the elders to meet me in the conference hall!"

The man said calmly, turning and walking deeper in.

Eis’s expression changed dramatically, and he hurried to inform the elders.

"Who exactly is he?"

The Guard Captain frowned.

Suddenly, his heart stirred, recalling an image he saw years ago.

A long time had passed, and he’d almost forgotten, but unexpectedly, this person appeared.

And appeared at this very moment.

"It’s him, he’s back!"

The Guard Captain exclaimed, his face changed dramatically, and his body began to tremble.

"Who? Captain, who exactly is he?"

A group of guards hurriedly asked.

"The man who once dominated the European Continent!"

Still not all materials were found.

Ye Qingfeng stood atop the First Peak, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

If enough materials couldn’t be found, then entering the Ancient Martial World would have to wait for now.

"The Ancient Martial World, Luosheng Sect, and all sects that took action, all should die!"

Ye Qingfeng’s killing intent surged in his chest, wishing he could immediately rush into the Ancient Martial World.

However.

He had no choice but to wait, to wait until all the materials were collected.

"Ye Qingfeng, we plan to build a statue for you, just below the First Peak. You are the City Lord now, but will leave one day. This way, every person joining Nine Tribulations City can admire you from the mountain below."

Wang Siyu came, standing behind Ye Qingfeng and said.

"No need."

"Build a statue anyway. Establishing Nine Tribulations City is such an impressive achievement, and as our city grows, it will become a legend. You should be remembered."

Ning Siyu persuaded.

Ye Qingfeng shook his head. Wang Siyu sighed lightly, knowing this man truly did not care about such things.

"I will carve it myself."

Ye Qingfeng suddenly said.

Conference Hall.

The Church elders gathered, including Herbert, who was the first to defect to Ye Qingfeng and received the Elixir, now holding the highest position among the elders in the Church.

At present, facing this ordinary man, Herbert and the others felt their hearts pounding, even struggling to breathe.

"You don’t need to be tense, we do not blame you. The Saint Heir, the guards, and the Great Elder are all dead. Indeed, you couldn’t resist this Lord Ye. Surrendering was to preserve our Church."

The man said plainly, yet everyone still dared not relax, still looking at him with reverence.

"Thank you, Your Holiness."

Herbert was the first to kneel down, followed by the other elders draping to the ground in succession.

This man was the Pope of the Church.

A man who hadn’t appeared for over a decade, but whose legend still resonated among the strongmen in Europe, and even around the world.

"Herbert, I heard you were the first to surrender to that Ye Kill God and even obtained his Elixir, which led to your current cultivation advancement."

The Pope asked calmly.

Herbert’s body trembled, quickly answering, "Your Holiness, these were all temporary measures to preserve our Church’s strength."

"Ha—"

The pope sneered but showed no anger, calmly saying, "Very well, I believe in your loyalty, so how about this, go to Nine Tribulations City and issue a duel challenge. Invite this Hua Xia Slaughter God to battle us on Maple Leaf Mountain."

Issuing a challenge.

A battle on Maple Leaf Mountain! Herbert’s expression changed.

"No, Your Holiness, you must not do this."

Herbert said excitedly.

"What did you say? Do you really think I’m overly good-natured?"

The pope waved his sleeve, directly sending Herbert flying and crashing heavily onto the ground.

"Or have you already betrayed the Church and sided with that Lord Ye?"

"I wouldn’t dare, Your Holiness. I am doing this for your good. I fear you might be defeated by Ye Kill God.

With his nature, he would surely annihilate everything."

Herbert said excitedly, blood on the corner of his mouth.

"Are you questioning my strength?"

"I would not dare; it’s just that Ye Kill God is indeed too formidable. Even you, Your Holiness, might not be his match. ℴ

I am really doing it for the good of the Church."

Herbert hurriedly said.

"All you elders, speak up."

After hesitating for a while, they finally opened their mouths: "Consider carefully, Your Holiness. Ye Kill God is a monster; we cannot confront him directly."

"Indeed, he is terrifyingly formidable. He single-handedly wiped out a powerful fleet, shocking the world, and no one dares to act against him."

"Even your former glories, Your Holiness, pale in comparison to him. Please be calm, Your Holiness!"

Ye Kill God’s accomplishments were indeed too terrifying. Everyone transitioned from firmly believing that the Pope could defeat Ye Qingfeng, to doubt, and then to certain belief.

Being certain that the Pope was not Ye Qingfeng’s opponent.

"Hmph, enough. Herbert, go issue the duel challenge immediately. More words, and I’ll kill!"

The Pope snorted coldly.

He exuded an aura that made everyone catch their breath, unable to withstand the imposing pressure.

The Pope was still so powerful, a small comfort for them.
