Chapter 1180 Puppet King
The Pope wore a white magic robe and held a golden staff in his hand. His old face seemed to always have a smile on it. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the Inquisition went to Handing City to investigate the cause of death of Holy Knight Allen. We have always been good friends. How could we attack Miss Anita?"
The king frowned, gritted his teeth, breathed a sigh of relief, and forced a smile: "Your Holiness, I already know what you just said. Don't worry, if it can help the empire survive the crisis, I will definitely support you with all my strength."
"Well, the king is sensible. In that case, the Holy See will be in charge of this formation from now on." The Pope smiled slightly, looked at Anita, glanced at Liu Yan'er, and said, "In this way, the king and the princess will not be delayed."
With a strange laugh, the Pope's body turned into nothingness and disappeared on the spot.
"Fuck!" Seeing the Pope leave, Vincent couldn't help but curse: "This old guy actually threatened me. Damn it, where is that guy Gers? Why can't I contact him?"
"What happened in Handing City?"
Seeing her father's furious look, Anita felt a little sad. Her father was already overwhelmed by the Pope's affairs, and she went out to cause trouble for her father. Anita said with concern: "Father, the area around Handing City is in chaos."
"Dean Gers ordered the capture of all Eastern monks. Now, all Eastern monks near Handing City have been captured. I was rescued by two beautiful sisters." Anita cried, "Those three holy knights knew my identity and shamelessly said that they didn't take you, my father, seriously, so we started fighting."
"A fight has begun! Three Holy Knights?" Vincent's huge body trembled madly, and he cursed: "Damn Pope Harvey, how could he do such a thing!!"
“By the way, how did you escape?” Vincent suddenly asked.
Anita burst into tears and said, "There was a fairy sister who protected Sister Yan'er and me when we left. I ran to the teleportation array and brought Sister Yan'er back. I don't know what happened to that fairy sister now."
"You mean, one person facing three holy knights?" Vincent's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yes, yes, Sister Fairy is very powerful. She beat back those three bastards with just one move." Anita gestured with her hands and feet.
After hearing Anita's words, everyone present was extremely shocked. Vincent even asked, "Who is that fairy sister you are talking about?"
At this time, Liu Yan'er spoke up: "Your Majesty, the fairy sister Anita mentioned is my Eastern Spirit World Demon Princess Dugu Piaoling."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar.
"Oh my god, it's actually the Demon Princess! Why have so many demons come to our west?"
"Why would the Demon Princess save us Westerners?"
"Aren't the demons in league with those bastards from the Church?"
Vincent frowned and asked Liu Yan'er, "Miss, who are you?"
Liu Yan'er knelt on one knee and saluted, saying, "I am Liu Yan'er, the disciple of the Nine-Tailed Demon King. I am honored to meet you, Your Majesty. Please send someone to rescue Dugu Piaoling as soon as possible!"
"The disciple of the Nine-Tailed Demon King?" Vincent's eyes lit up, and then a trace of sadness flashed across his eyes: "Alas, Handing City is more than 100,000 kilometers away from our imperial capital. Even if we send someone over now, it's too late."
"More than 100,000 kilometers?" Liu Yan'er's delicate body trembled: "Isn't there a teleportation array?"
Vincent smiled bitterly: "Miss, you just heard it, this teleportation array is now under the control of the Holy See. I have no way to activate the array."
"What?" Liu Yan'er exclaimed and stood there in a daze.
In order to save himself and Anita, Dugu Piaoling fought against three people alone. If there was no rescue, Dugu Piaoling might not have been able to hold on for that long.
Thinking of this, Liu Yan'er felt extremely sad.
Seeing Liu Yan'er frowning, Vincent said calmly, "But don't worry. Since that expert is the princess of the demon clan, if she reveals her identity, the Church will definitely treat Dugu Piaoling as a guest of honor. Dugu Piaoling will definitely be safe."
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Liu Yan'er asked curiously.
Vincent sighed: "The demons and the Western Church have already reached a cooperation for some kind of experiment. If the eldest princess of the demons is killed by the Church, do you think the Heavenly Demon King will let the Church go?"
Looking at this king who had no dignity and looked like a puppet, Liu Yan'er took a deep breath and said lightly: "Okay then."
"It's strange, why would the Demon Princess save you?" Vincent's eyes were cold, and a murderous intent swept across Liu Yan'er's body.
Liu Yan'er sensed the murderous intent and couldn't help but become nervous: "I don't know either. I just happened to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess and Dugu Piaoling during the chaos."
"Oh?" Vincent asked Anita beside him, "How did you get to know the Demon Princess?"
Anita was stunned: "I don't know her identity at all, father. If I say that I hired her on credit because I owed her money, would you believe me?"
Vincent's mouth twitched: "How do you feel?"
Anita quickly explained, "It's like this, I met a master, and Dugu Piaoling was the servant of that master. I have never seen the fairy sister take action, but it seems that, um... the so-called master should be the servant of the fairy sister."
"Master, what master?" Liu Yan'er and Vincent asked at the same time.
Anita continued to explain: "He is a master, a man, an Oriental, his name is Xu Que! Yes, it is Xu Que."
"Xu Que?" Liu Yan'er exclaimed, "Where is he?"
Seeing Liu Yan'er's nervous expression, Anita was shocked: "I haven't seen Xu Que since the riot. Maybe he is dead."
Liu Yan'er was very familiar with the name Xu Que. If it wasn't Lu Yun, who else could it be?
Liu Yaner was a little excited when she heard the name, but then she calmed down and said with a smile: "In this case, Handing City is safe."
"Why?" Anita and Vincent asked at the same time.
Vincent was even more curious and asked, "Miss from the East, do you know the man named Xu Que?"
Anyone who can have a relationship with a master like Dugu Piaoling is definitely not a weak person!
Liu Yan'er smiled and said, "To be honest with you, Your Majesty, Xu Que is my husband's pseudonym. With my husband here, Handing City will be safe."
"Your husband? Who is he?"
"King Tianyan!"
