"Xu Shi!"
The little black rabbit felt like dying. "Tell me honestly, do I look like a winter melon?"
"That's impossible."
Xu Shi shook his head seriously. It's just a little shorter and flatter, how does it become a winter melon?
But the title was so funny that he couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Heh."
"I use polite language, you use polite language..."
Despite receiving recognition, Gu Yi still lost her temper, abandoning the gentle and ladylike personality she had painstakingly corrected, and transformed into a scathing verbal machine, relentlessly unleashing her grievances.
This is outrageous!
"Ahhh, I'm not..."
Pan Feng finally realized what was going on and asked, "What are you talking about?!"
She quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Donggua, oh no, I'm sorry, Madam Gu. I was clumsy with my words just now, I shouldn't have called you Donggua..."
"Shut up! Don't say anything!"
The little black rabbit was so angry she wanted to kill her. Xu bastard, look at this! This is the good disciple you've taken in!
"Um, my sister isn't Master's apprentice, she's Master Xia's wife's..."
Pan Ling weakly raised her hand to correct, "I hope it's alright to hear what Master Gu is thinking?"
"..."
Gu Yi was speechless for a long time, and her resentment turned into indifference.
I'm tired. Let it all end. I'm probably the only one who's superfluous.
"Alright, you just know how to bully Xiao Gu."
Tang Shuang was both amused and exasperated, and stepped forward to smooth things over, "What, is our Boss Xu playing such fancy tricks now?"
She steered the conversation back to the earlier topic.
"...So, do you still want it or not?"
Xu Shi quickly changed the subject, asking jokingly.
"How can you refuse it before you've even tried it?"
Governor Tang said seriously, his driving speed was no less than that of an experienced driver.
The two smiled at each other. Their relationship was a pure case of "friends meeting through conflict," and their conversation was actually quite pleasant to listen to.
"Let's deal with the immediate problem first."
Xu Shi smiled and sighed, "Have you rested enough? If anyone can't handle it, they can stay?"
I didn't just say all that for the sake of joking around; it also subtly created time for rest and reflection.
No one had that idea; today was to settle things with the Vatican, so naturally no one wanted to be absent.
"Then let's go."
Xu Shi took a deep breath and said slowly.
"Um."
People were arranged to settle and evacuate the civilians here. The two groups that met headed toward the cathedral.
Before leaving, they made some preparations.
It's a state religion now, after all. It's obviously inappropriate for them to act like gangsters. They need to make their actions more legitimate.
The method is also very simple.
"It's alright."
"...Okay."
The old lady knew what Xu Shi meant, and with a flash of light, she switched into adult form.
She didn't need to change her clothes; the new dress Jiang Chengcheng made for her fit perfectly.
This action stunned everyone present who was unaware of what was happening, and it took them a while to realize what was going on.
"This...the Holy Maiden has appeared!"
Some onlookers, speaking their minds, gave the answer everyone wanted to hear.
"I humbly beseech the Holy Maiden's protection!"
The others snapped out of their daze and followed suit, saying in unison.
They had witnessed firsthand how brutal the Papacy was, killing people indiscriminately; it would be a miracle if they had even the slightest bit of goodwill towards it.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Vatican has been a scourge for many years, disregarding the lives of its people. It must be destroyed!"
The white-haired mature woman nodded, her tone now carrying a hint of coldness.
The same words carry even more weight when spoken by her, the saintess of the Cat Cult.
Thus, surrounded by Xu Shi and the combat team, the expedition became more formal.
Everyone hopes that the Cat Cult will win. It's no longer just about milk and eggs. If they don't win, the Vatican might not even spare the common people.
"All who follow my faith, meow meow meow meow!"
Only one person looked ashen-faced.
That's Gu Yi.
She clearly hadn't expected the short, white man to have this trick up his sleeve. How did you suddenly become a stunning beauty with a curvaceous figure?!
You betrayed me too! I don't want to live anymore!
She wanted to kill herself.
...
Compared to the vast and imposing army of the Cat Cult, the Holy See's side appeared much quieter.
When Xu Shi kicked open the cathedral door, he saw only a few priests and nuns, as well as Miss Saint and the old pope.
The Knights Templar have lost half their strength, with only five remaining: Qin Yiyan, Luo Yu, Lu Baiyan, Han Jingchuan, and one other person. Apart from the Knight Commander, they are all of low combat ability.
As for the others?
The entire route had already been wiped out, and with such a large army pressing in, it would be difficult to resist even if more troops were transferred from other regions.
"The Vatican is a scourge, disregarding the lives of its people; it must be executed!"
Xu Shi repeated his old tune, speaking with righteous indignation.
"Master Xu, you've arrived."
The saintess remained veiled, her voice ethereal and calm, as if she had anticipated the current situation.
In contrast, other members of the Vatican seemed less composed.
"Xu Shi!"
Luo Yu, who had escaped back, had bloodshot eyes, a severed arm hanging from his arm, and his tone was full of hatred.
He cannot accept this result!
Why has this person been targeting me ever since they appeared?!
The Pan family, Silver Pine Island, the Sea God... and now, everything he already possessed and everything he was about to possess had been completely stripped away by him!
"Mr. Xu, please stop making up such high-sounding reasons."
Qin Yiyan's mood improved slightly, but he was no better when facing the enemy. He drew his heavy sword and stood in front of the Holy Maiden, coldly saying, "What you did in the Empire wasn't clean either. It's just a matter of the victor taking all."
