Chapter 433: Chapter 343: The Goddess of Life? Appears in Holy Light._1
The next morning, Zheng Cheng and his companions arrived at a magnificent… church.
“Church?”
Looking at the towering church, Zheng Cheng asked in surprise, “There’s such a large church in Beijing?”
“Of course, there is,” Zhao Yunxiao explained. “Among all support professionals, priests are indeed at the forefront of abilities.”
“Due to the devotion to divinities before, our country’s number and strength of support professionals were greatly diminished, and most churches were banned.”
“But only this ‘Church of Holy Light’ was preserved. You probably know why.”
Zheng Cheng said, “Is it because the priests here believe in the Holy Light?”
“Correct.”
Zhao Yunxiao said, “After that incident, the surviving priests all joined the Church of Holy Light, and it suddenly became the sacred place in the hearts of all priests, passed down to this day.”
“The one in control of the Church of Holy Light now is an Epic Level priest, with twelve red-robed bishops under her command, suppressing the whole country or stationed on the battlefield against other races.”
“And the person we are looking for today is the red-robed bishop stationed at the Beijing Church of Holy Light, known as the… Goddess of Life, Song Zeqian.”
“Song Zeqian?”
“Hmm.” Zhao Yunxiao took the lead into the Church of Holy Light: “Come in.”
Zheng Cheng followed, and seeing how familiar Zhao Yunxiao was with this place, he asked curiously, “Sister Yunxiao, do you know this Goddess of Life?”
“Hmm.”
Zhao Yunxiao nodded and said, “Sort of. We grew up playing together and were once teammates.”
“It’s a pity though. She’s too showy by nature, enjoys being the center of attention, and always deliberately or inadvertently attracts the men around her.”
“Until she reached LV79, just a step away from becoming an Epic Level, I heard she went into seclusion in the Church of Holy Light to comprehend the Rule Power and ascend to Epic Level. She’s even secretly gathered a group of priests, and who knows what she’s up to.”
Zhao Yunxiao took a step forward, indifferent to the passing priests around her, and followed the stairs up to the seventh floor.
“Please halt, worshipper. The offices of the Church of Holy Light of Hope start from the sixth floor upwards, and unauthorized persons are not allowed to enter…”
Two knights in Golden Light Armor halted Zhao Yunxiao in her tracks and spoke up.
“Let Song Zeqian come to meet me.”
“Song Zeqian?”
The younger knight to the left asked curiously, “Who is Song Zeqian?”
The middle-aged knight on the right changed his expression slightly and asked, “You are…?”
“Tell her that Zhao Yunxiao is looking for her.”
The middle-aged knight gave the younger a meaningful look and said respectfully, “Please wait a moment, I will inform her right now.”
Having said that, he went into the upper floor and made a phone call.
He soon came back out: “Miss Zhao, and this gentleman, Bishop Song is waiting for you inside.”
As he spoke, a girl with a graceful figure came out: “You must be Bishop Song’s honored guests, right. Bishop Song sent me to welcome you~”
“Hmm.”
Zhao Yunxiao nodded and, along with Zheng Cheng, followed the girl inside.
The young knight whispered: “Uncle Chen, who is Song Zeqian? I haven’t heard of her…”
“Shut your mouth!”
The older knight whispered urgently, “How many Bishop Songs do we have in our church? Are you deaf~”
“Bishop… Song?”
The young knight’s eyes suddenly lit up as if ignited by a divine flame, “It’s actually Bishop Song; then the identities of those two…”
“Shh… keep your voice down! If they are familiar with Bishop Song, they are surely beyond our imagination…”
Soon, Zheng Cheng saw a woman kneeling in prayer before a statue in a spacious prayer room.
His first glance was drawn to the woman’s back.
Her long hair flowed down, barely covering the upper part of her buttocks.
Her waist exposed tender white skin that seemed to sparkle with a golden light.
The slight raise of her buttocks suggested her generosity.
There were subtle curves on either side of her back, but considering he was behind her, she must be a quite imposing figure.
The next second, his gaze was captured by the statue in front of the woman.
It was called a statue, but it resembled a… flame more.
Yes.
A golden flame radiating light, dancing and flowing. It seemed inanimate, yet alive, very strange.
“Humph!”
Zhao Yunxiao let out a cold snort, and Zheng Cheng snapped out of his daze with a start.
“Stop gawking~”
“Uh, right…”
“Giggle~”
With a charming giggle, the woman stood up, her tone teasing, “Yunxiao, you’re still as cold as ever~ No wonder no one dares to marry you.”
Zhao Yunxiao rolled her eyes and retorted, “Aren’t you the same?”
“I’m different~” The woman teased back, “It’s because too many are pursuing me, I just can’t decide who to choose.”
“You, on the other hand, are a different case, giggle…”
“Scram!”
“Eh? You’ve broken through? Already? It seems the Nightwatcher really does train people well~”
“It’s been three years, and you’re still treading water, right? Really don’t know what you’re doing in this rotten house?”
“I am waiting for my opportunity…”
“Opportunity is fought for, how could it possibly be waited for?”
“Giggle, Yunxiao, I was a step ahead of you three years ago, and in that realm, I can still be one step ahead. Besides, the opportunities for us priests are not like those for you brutes…”
“Scram!” Zhao Yunxiao glared, “Enough nonsense, I’m here on business this time…”
“I know.”
The woman cut her off, “Zheng Cheng, right? I’ve long been familiar with you in spirit~”
