Chapter 433: Chapter 433: Siege

"Saint Di Anfu, your heart is troubled!" On the plane, Kaidiluo opened his eyes and looked at the somewhat anxious Saint Di Anfu and said, "Your faith was shaken during your trip to Huaxia!"

Saint Di Anfu was startled, "Grand Knight, I..."

"No need to explain!" Kaidiluo said indifferently. "You don’t have to say anything to me. Even if you convinced me, you cannot deceive your own heart!"

Saint Di Anfu’s heart was slightly bitter. She didn’t know why, but ever since she decided to leave Huaxia, her mood had been very restless, and even the previously effective Light Spell could not calm her spirit.

As the Bright Saintess, Saint Di Anfu knew her current state was very abnormal. Deep inside her heart, a vague shadow had appeared, and as the Bright Saintess, she was supposed to devote herself entirely to God—how could she entertain personal affections?

Kaidiluo looked at the conflicted face of Saint Di Anfu and could not help but sigh. Although Saint Di Anfu had been baptized by the Papal Court of Light since childhood, she was, after all, just a young woman in her early twenties. How could she resist his charm?

Kaidiluo also couldn’t help but sigh inwardly; he had never imagined that Blood-Handed Asura was a Huaxia man, and moreover, a handsome youth of twenty-five!

"If Ling Feng were a man of our Church, then the glory of our Church could shine over the entire continent! Unfortunately, he is a Huaxia man. Huaxia is destined to rise!" Kaidiluo knew very well what it meant to have an S-class expert under thirty. When he became powerful enough, he could even influence the entire world’s structure!

"Once I return to the Church, I must report this to His Holiness!" Kaidiluo thought, "China Dragon Group, be friends, not foes!"

With this thought, Kaidiluo glanced again at Saint Di Anfu, his eyes thoughtful, as if pondering something!

Saint Di Anfu, on the other hand, was looking at the white clouds outside the window, having already decided that once she returned to the Church, she would go into seclusion to purify her mind, determined to expel the shadow ingrained in her mind!

"I am the Bright Saintess; everything about me belongs to God!" Saint Di Anfu thought to herself, "Ling Feng and I are merely ordinary friends!"

But the moment she closed her eyes, an image of Ling Feng’s mischievous smile and his teasing appearance floated into Saint Di Anfu’s mind!

"Ah, it’s so infuriating!"

...

Suddenly, Kaidiluo, who was resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, showing a dangerous glint, "Not good, danger!"

As he spoke, Kaidiluo grabbed the still confused Saint Di Anfu, radiating Holy Light from his body, and shot through the plane like a sword, plunging downward!

"What’s happening?" Saint Di Anfu was somewhat dazed. Before she could ask, a missile trailing flames came from a distance.

A loud bang was heard. The plane they were on was hit by the missile, turning into a fireball as it crashed to the ground, exploding into countless pieces!

Saint Di Anfu was somewhat bewildered, she could still feel the shockwave from when the plane was destroyed.

"Why is this happening? Why was a missile fired?" Saint Di Anfu felt a chill in her heart.

Behind Kaidiluo appeared two pairs of giant Light Wings, gently fluttering.

"Saint Di Anfu!" Kaidiluo’s voice came through.

"Grand Knight, what’s the matter?"

"There will be a fierce battle soon!" Kaidiluo said in a deep voice, "Take the opportunity to leave now before the enemy appears. Take the Scepter of Kings and the Crown of Light and seek help from the Dragon Group!"

"I..."

Before Saint Di Anfu could say anything else, Kaidiluo waved his hand, and a huge light ball enveloped Saint Di Anfu, then the light ball flew off into the distance.

Not having reached the S level, Saint Di Anfu, without Kaidiluo’s help, would not have been able to land safely from such a high altitude!

Watching the fading shadow of Saint Di Anfu, Kaidiluo breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that Saint Di Anfu could escape smoothly so that, at least, the Church’s Sacred Relics wouldn’t fall into the hands of others!

"Haha, Kaidiluo, how do you like our gift?" At that moment, a sinister voice came through, tinged with a trace of mockery.

There was no change in Kaidiluo’s expression, who simply said indifferently, "Dark Church’s Relic, no need to beat around the bush. Don’t you have the courage to face me yet?"

"Kaidiluo, what do you have to be arrogant about?" the sinister voice continued. "Hand over the Scepter of Kings and the Crown of Light on your person, or else, this day next year will be the anniversary of your death!"

Kaidiluo chuckled coldly and said, "Relic, you dare to spout such nonsense? Have you forgotten how you fled from my hands back then? Who else wants to stand out?"

With a thunderous boom, a burst of thunder came from the sky, and then several figures emerged from the clouds.

Kaidiluo’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, "The Dark Church’s three Great Elders? I didn’t expect you would deign to come out of your secluded meditation? Storm Thunder God, do you also seek to be an enemy of the Papal Court of Light?"

The five individuals, excluding Relic, included three of the Dark Church’s Great Elders, each with S-level strength. Another, a red-haired middle-aged man named Thunder, famed as the Western Thunder God, also boasted S-level prowess!

Surrounded by five S-classed masters, Kaidiluo’s face showed no trace of panic, but a hint of disdain, "Relic, are these the people you rely on?"

Relic was a lean Caucasian, his eyes filled with a malevolent expression: "Kaidiluo, you never thought we would ambush you here, did you? With five S-classed masters making a move, what arrogance can you have left? Hand over the Sacred Relics of the Papal Court of Light, and perhaps we might consider sparing your life!"

Kaidiluo laughed lightly, "Previous losers speaking of bravery! Let alone you five, even if the entire Dark Church were to come out, what of it? I, Kaidiluo, can deal with it with a single sword slash!"

"Good!" At this moment, Storm Thunder God couldn’t help but shout, "I’ve long heard that Kaidiluo, the Grand Knight of the Papal Court of Light, has a spirit that shakes the Underworld, and is renowned as one of the Eight War Gods. I’ve come here for the challenge. Holding the power of thunder, I want to see whether your Holy Sword is mightier, or my thunder stronger!"

After saying this, Storm Thunder God spoke to Relic, "Brother Lei, as we agreed earlier, I’ll challenge Kaidiluo first. How about you all support me?"

Relic originally wanted to engage in a five-on-one assault to take him down in one swoop, but he knew of Storm Thunder God’s longstanding wish to defeat one of the Eight War Gods and achieve his own War God fame! Having finally encountered Kaidiluo, he certainly wouldn’t pass up this opportunity!

"Good!" Relic said, "The first battle is yours. I hope you can take down this arrogant fool in one fell swoop!"
