Chapter 1395: Chapter 1394: Enlightening the Saintess
Through the teleportation array, Ling Feng and the others quickly arrived at the Holy City in the Angel World.
Although Ling Feng had seen many wonders, he was still immensely shocked when he reached the Holy City of the Angel World!
Because this Holy City wasnāt built on the ground, but on a gigantic Tree of Angels.
However, this Tree of Angels had weathered over time and turned into a colossal fossil. Moreover, the Holy City had eleven layers, with the eleventh layer being the Suspended City, where the King of the Holy Spirits resided. Previously, it was the residence of the Holy Angel.
"Are these two heretics?" As soon as they appeared in the Holy City, a squad of angels approached them: "Hand them over to us first, you can follow to make a handover, and you may claim your reward!"
Angel Commander Luo Qi did not hand over Ling Feng and the others, but squinted his eyes and asked, "How come itās you? Whereās Archangel Michael? Wasnāt he the one dealing with the heretics before?"
Blood Angel replied indifferently, "Archangel Michael went to the Heavenly Battlefield, and the matters concerning heretics are currently handed over to me. Do you have any questions?"
Saying this, Blood Angel revealed the badge on his arm, and Luo Qi smiled: "No more questions, so thatās how it is. Weāll listen to the sir."
The place where the heretics were imprisoned was on the seventh layer of the Holy City. Besides the heretics, many other notorious individuals were held there, including people from the Angel World and other planes.
As they walked in, Ling Feng felt an extremely oppressive aura enveloping him. Bright Saintess noticed the discomfort on Ling Fengās face, and instinctively held Ling Fengās hand.
Ling Feng turned his head in surprise to look at Bright Saintess, who only returned an expression of both steadfastness and warmth.
The entire seventh layer of the Holy City was filled with prisons except where the guards were stationed. As Ling Feng and the others passed through, they could even feel the evil and maddening aura emanating from the cells.
"Everyone imprisoned here is above the Sea of Gods Realm, and there are even many from the Azure Sky Realm. You two are among the weakest here!" Blood Angel sneered at Ling Feng and Bright Saintess, saying: "You should thank your identities; if you werenāt heretics, you wouldnāt even be able to enter here!"
Blood Angelās voice carried a hint of sarcasm, but Ling Feng and Bright Saintess ignored him.
Boom, boom, boom! At this moment, several muffled sounds came from afar, followed by an extremely oppressive roar. Ling Feng could even feel the surrounding air becoming scorching and oppressive.
Blood Angelās expression changed, and he cursed: "That beast is restless again!"
Saying this, Blood Angelās figure flickered and disappeared, followed by another muffled sound from afar, and that roar vanished shortly after.
"Whatās going on!" Ling Feng felt a bit puzzled because the roar gave him a very familiar feeling.
"Why are you dazed, hurry up and go in!" At this time, several angels standing behind Ling Feng gave him a push.
Passing through a dim corridor, Ling Feng and Bright Saintess were confined in a narrow cell. To Ling Fengās surprise, this cell was actually much better than the previous ones, at least there were no Spirit Nullifying Stones around.
Inside the cell, there was only one bed, and Bright Saintess helped Ling Feng to sit on it.
"Saintess, donāt you think the recent events have been a bit strange?" Ling Feng asked in a low voice.
Bright Saintess asked with some doubt: "Strange? What are you talking about?"

Ling Feng replied solemnly: "Camille needed us to help her, but as soon as she left, we were surrounded. Donāt you find it strange?"
Bright Saintess nodded: "I find it strange too, are you suspecting Camille might be..."
Ling Feng shook his head: "Itās not certain yet, but if Iām not mistaken, something is bound to happen next!"
Bright Saintess looked at Ling Feng with furrowed brows and said with some heartache: "Now, donāt think too much, you should rest well! Your body..."
Ling Feng smiled bitterly: "How can I be in the mood to rest now? Moreover, weāre trapped here, I canāt put my mind at ease if I donāt figure things out!"
Bright Saintess bit her lip, hating her own powerlessness. She originally wanted to share Ling Fengās burden, but now she realized she couldnāt help Ling Feng with anything, other than being at a loss, she couldnāt keep up with Ling Fengās pace of thought.
This way, the burden on Ling Fengās shoulders is truly heavy. Bright Saintess admired this Ling Feng but felt sorry for him at the same time.
Involuntarily, she reached out and held Ling Fengās head to her chest.
Ling Feng was startled: "Saintess, you..."
"Donāt move!" Bright Saintess murmured: "I canāt help you much, but I want to tell you in this way that I will always support you. I will give you all my warmth and strength, even if itās very little!"
Ling Feng sighed slightly and quietly lay in Bright Saintessās embrace, knowing that if he struggled now, it would only embarrass Bright Saintess more. Ling Feng also understood it was just a friendly hug.
Moments later, Ling Feng rose from Bright Saintessās embrace and said, "Saintess, you may think you canāt help me much, but let me tell you, itās precisely because youāre always by my side that I have the motivation and am never lost!"
Bright Saintess froze: "Is that true?"
"Of course!" Ling Feng said: "If it were only me, facing the massive entities of the Divine Realm, Angel World, and Abyss Realm, I wouldnāt know how much confidence I have to face them. But because of you, I constantly remember my responsibility and gain endless strength to fight against this world!"
Bright Saintess blushed and stammered: "Is what you say true? Can I really help you so much?"
Ling Feng firmly nodded: "Yes, youāre very important to me, so donāt say you canāt help me at all, okay?"
Bright Saintess wiped her reddened eyes and smiled brightly: "I understand, Iām very important to Ling Feng, arenāt I!"
Ling Feng was considering whether to correct the ambiguity in Bright Saintessās tone but decided against it. What if it made Saintess overthink again?
