No one expected that Leah would choose to self-destruct. At the moment of her self-destruction, Judy pushed her away in time, but he was still affected by the blast and injured one of his arms.

The Temple of the Holy Maiden was teetering on the brink of collapse, and after everyone had fled, it crumbled with a deafening roar.

Zilia revealed that if Jessica hadn't released the barrier in time, the injuries would have been far more severe.

"Jessica, thank you so much."

“If it weren’t for Jessica, we would probably have suffered heavy casualties this time,” said a priest from the Temple of the Saintess.

"How about we bring Jessica back and let her take the position of saintess?"

“That’s not a good idea,” Jessica declined. “After all, I am the former saintess who was expelled from the Temple of Saintess.”

"What's wrong with that? We were all deceived by Leah, which is why we treated you this way."

The priests, one after another, expressed their hope that Jessica could return to the Temple of the Saints.

Even if the Temple of the Holy Maiden collapses, with earth magicians around, a new Temple of the Holy Maiden can be rebuilt quickly.

After much persuasion from everyone, Jessica finally accepted the position of saintess again.

After she regained her sainthood, she devoted herself to supporting the eldest prince.

When she lost her position as a saintess, the second prince was undoubtedly behind the scenes, pushing her into it.

The eldest prince was already stronger than the second prince, and now he also has the full support of the Holy Maiden Palace.

Before long, they suppressed him to the point that he could never rise again. When the eldest prince ascended the throne and became the new king, he exiled him to the border.

Sheri formally proposed to Amman.

Amman, a woman from a small village, became the envy of all women.

"Who exactly is this Amman, and why did Prince Shire propose to her?"

"I don't know, it seems that it was when Prince She-Ra was in trouble that he saved his woman."

"Ah, how lucky! By the God of Light, please grant me such an opportunity as well?"

"Haha, the God of Light is too busy to pay attention to your kind of prayer."

"Ha ha."

A burst of laughter and chatter filled the street. Although they were filled with jealousy towards Amman, they hoped even more that she and Prince She-Ra could be together happily.

There should be no pain.

Ning Hong almost wanted to kick the person in front of her who was smiling so brightly out of the house.

But reason stopped him.

Although he was reluctant, Anman liked it, and that was enough. He was just her brother; all he had to do was watch over her and make sure she wasn't bullied.

This is her life, and ultimately, she should walk her own path.

The wedding was the grandest ever.

Everyone in the capital city could feel how much Prince Shire valued this wedding.

Even the officiant at the wedding was Saint Jessica of the Temple of Saintess.

"I've heard that this Miss Amman, our future Third Prince's consort, is a good friend of Saint Jessica."

"That's true."

The other person nodded emphatically.

"Hey, do you know something inside?"

"Of course, my grandmother's aunt's eldest daughter works odd jobs at the Holy Maiden Temple."

"Why make it sound so complicated? It's just your older cousin!"

"That seems to be true."

As this man boasted about his cousin, Judy remained expressionless in the crowd. His hand was crippled; naturally, he couldn't be a knight.

He completely regretted it.

If he had known, he shouldn't have gotten involved with Leah back then; he should have stayed with Jessica.

So now, he's the one who enjoys the envy of everyone.

However, Judy touched his face, and it was still fine. He wondered if Jessica still wanted to be with him.

Judy went to find Jessica, but she didn't even get to see her.

He was stopped at the door.

"I am the saintess's fiancé, how dare you block my way?"

"I'm sorry, but the Holy Maiden said she doesn't have any fiancés," the gatekeeper said expressionlessly. "People like you who claim to be relatives or fiancés of the Holy Maiden are not uncommon, but the Holy Maiden also said that she is alone and doesn't have that many relatives or fiancés."

Does Jessica not want anyone anymore?

Just then, Ning Hong slowly walked into the Holy Maiden's Palace. When the gatekeeper saw him, he respectfully escorted him in without daring to be disrespectful in the slightest.

"Who is this? Why can he go in?"

This person was dressed in very ordinary civilian clothes, not a priest, yet several doormen treated him with utmost respect. Could he be Jessica's lover?

"This is the Third Prince's wife's brother. The Holy Maiden and His Highness the Prince have both taken special care of him, saying that the Holy Maiden Palace is only unguarded against Princess Anman and Lady Ning Hongze."

"He, he???"

Jessica's willingness to allow such a thing to happen suggests that she and Ning Hong must have some kind of illicit relationship.

Judy's eyes were red, and she felt that Jessica had betrayed her, which made her furious.

The gatekeeper wouldn't let him in, so he stood at the door and waited.

They were seen chatting and laughing as they came out of the Temple of the Holy Maiden.

Anger burned in Judy's heart.

You despicable person.

She betrayed him.

At this moment, Judy was completely blinded by jealousy. He was so angry that he even grabbed his longsword and charged forward.

Before he even reached Ning Hongze, Ning Hongze raised his arm, and several vines shot up and bound him.

"Judy, what do you want to do?"

"You shameless woman, you've been unfaithful."

“Me?” Jessica stared wide-eyed in astonishment. “I have no engagement and no husband. Whose affair did I have? Yours? Have you forgotten that we broke off our engagement a long time ago? Your fiancé is Leah.”

A casual remark left Judy completely stunned.

“Jessica, Leah is gone, we can start over.”

"No need. I'm a germaphobe and I don't like using things that other people have used, even if it's a man. Besides, you're already useless, how could you be worthy of me?"

Jessica's words were harsh, and Judy was filled with hatred, but there was nothing she could do but watch them leave together.

In everyone's eyes, Jessica and Ning Hong are probably a couple.

But only the two of them knew that they were just friends.

That kind of feeling is something neither of them can develop.

Jessica spent most of her life guarding the Temple of the Holy Maiden. As she grew old and was about to leave the Temple, she fell in love with a greatsword knight.

He is the actual male protagonist in the original story.

As soon as the male lead appeared, Ning Hongze's health rapidly deteriorated.

Logically speaking, magicians have a long lifespan, but after Ning Hong turned forty, the functions of all her organs began to decline.

When Amman's first grandson was born, Ning Hong closed her eyes with a smile.
