Chapter 447: b.l.o.o.d.y night

Long Yi followed the gaze of Dongfang Kexin and looked at his arm. He explained with a smile on his face, “These three teeth marks were left behind by two little wildcats. One of them bit me once and the other one bit me twice. They were truly ruthless when biting me, the marks haven’t even disappeared yet.”

Dongfang Kexin was startled and her beautiful face slightly reddened. However, her face became pale the next moment. She recalled that she had left two of the teeth marks herself. At that time in Soaring Dragon City, after the imperial banquet held in the imperial palace, she was filled with rage. She was angry due to Long Yi’s infidelity and she was also angry at the fact she wasn’t his only woman.

Cold sweat appeared on Dongfang Kexin’s forehead. With her hands cupping her temples, her face was distorted due to the pain she felt. She desperately tried to shake off the feeling which appeared in her mind.

The moment she saw those teeth marks, she instantly recalled what happened in the past. Moreover, she started to become jealous when she realized that one of the teeth marks didn’t belong to her.

“Kexin, what’s wrong?” When he saw Dongfang Kexin’s pitiful appearance, Long Yi couldn’t help but step forward in order to support her.

“Don’t touch me! You are a demon!” Dongfang Kexin roared as if she had gone insane. Rus.h.i.+ng in front of the Light G.o.d’s statue, she knelt down. Muttering a heart cleansing incantation, she became calmer all of a sudden. Her heart demon was also suppressed. Yes, she believed that it was a heart demon. That was what Pope Charles said.

Long Yi shook his head and retracted his domain. Giving a profound look to Dongfang Kexin who was kneeling on the ground, many thoughts flashed through his head. She appeared to be confessing her sins to the Light G.o.d and Long Yi didn’t want to cause her to go berserk again. Turning his gaze away from her, he looked towards the entrance of the inner room. He saw that the Holy Priest, Karen, was staring at him.

On the third floor of the Light Church, Karen stood in front of a magic gla.s.s as she watched people streaming in and out of the square in front of the church. Long Yi stood beside her with no expression on his face.

“Priest Karen, Charles did something to my cousin, didn’t he?” Long Yi indifferently said.

Karen sighed softly and confessed, “You are right. However, the Pope did that for her own good. Her obsession went too deep and it’s a big taboo when cultivating

light magic.”

“Is that so? Isn’t he just covering up the matter of how he controlled Dongfang Kexin to s.n.a.t.c.h the light spirit tablet?” Long Yi raised his eyebrows and sneered.

“I don’t know anything about the light spirit tablet. However, I know that the pope did nothing wrong. Although she is not his biological daughter, the Pope regards her as his own daughter.” Karen said.

“Her obsession is too deep… However, what about you? Priest Karen, is the obsession in your heart gone?” Long Yi broke into a smile as he stared at Karen.

The expression on Karen beautiful face changed slightly. She thought about it for a moment before replying softly, “It has already been so long. I have already forgotten about everything in the past. There is nothing for me to obsess over now.”

“I would have never expected that that old man, Murong Bo, would have such luck with women. Two great Holy Priests from the Light Church actually remembered him in their mind. Thinking about it, I remember the time I used the sword skill he taught me. Judith, that woman, stood still at the side just like a fool when she saw my sword skill.” Long Yi carelessly muttered to himself.

“You are talking nonsense! Stop imagining things.” Karen reprimanded.

“If it’s not like what I imagined, then what actually happened?” Long Yi quickly asked a question in reply.

“It’s……” Karen opened her mouth and was about to answer. However, she hesitated and thought about what she was doing. Why on earth was she telling him her private affairs? It seemed like her heart was still not strong enough. He was actually able to lead her around by the nose.

“It’s something you don’t need to know. Why did you come here today?” Karen indifferently asked.

Although Long Yi thought that it was a pity that he wasn’t able to swindle the truth out of her, he didn’t think too much about it. When all was said and done, he didn’t need to probe into the private affairs of Murong Bo.

“I thought over Charles’ proposal. I agree with whatever he wrote in the letter. However, my first request is for the Light Church to fully support Nalan Ruyue’s ascension to the throne.” Long Yi directly said.

…………………

These two days, several people in Blue Moon City started to discuss some matters.

“In my view, if Princess Ruyue became the empress, it would definitely be much better than those two good-for-nothing princes. Not to mention the fact that she is a Saintess from the Light Church. She has the protection of the Light G.o.d on her.” In a teahouse, several people were sitting together in a circle as

as they discussed in a low voice.

“Yes yes, our Nalan Empire fell into chaos due to those good-for-nothing princes. If we don’t get a proper emperor soon, the Nalan Empire would be destroyed. With a proper emperor, we would be able to fight back and there would be a chance to win the war.” Another one of them thought deeply and said.

Currently, discussions about the new emperor were everywhere. It all started from inside the army. Of course, it was the handiwork of Wei Yasi and the others who had sought refuge under Long Yi. After the news spread throughout the military, observant people added their own opinions. As a result, the majority of people felt that Nalan Ruyue ascending to the throne was much better than Nalan Wen and Nalan Wu.

The situation in the Nalan Empire had already deteriorated to the extreme. A dozen or more kingdoms and princ.i.p.alities had started their rebellion. They seized two-thirds of the territory the Nalan Empire possessed. Other than the heavily guarded Blue Moon City the few neighboring cities around it, everywhere else was practically h.e.l.l. As the flames of war started to spread, the beast-men clans were not the only ones who wreaked havoc. The armies which belonged to the other kingdoms and princ.i.p.alities added to the chaos. The peace and serenity which the Nalan Empire used to have in the past were immediately broken.

The beginning of the seventh month of the year 87**. The temperature of Blue Moon City was supposed to be mild at this point of the year. However, it all changed. It became extremely hot and the weather became extremely abnormal.
