1649 Xinxias Wrath (1/2)

Edited by Aelryinth

Mu Ningxue roughly described the situation and emphasized how Priest Bude was purposely picking on them and not treating Mo Fan's injuries.

As soon as she finished explaining, a lot of footsteps arrived outside the room. The three Great Priests of the Hall of Faith had arrived. Priest Bude, his forehead covered in sweat, was following them. He looked at Knight Apollo, Saintess Xinxia, and Tata with a confused face!

”I wasn't aware of Your Honor's arrival. Please forgive me for not welcoming you warmly. Is there anything I can do for you?” Priest Bude spoke up hastily.

”Why did you lock them up?” Xinxia asked.

”They...they were accused of killing young Barbara and stealing the Verdon Dusk, I was only doing my job!” Bude's heart pounded heavily as he was answering the question.

How did it catch the Saintess' attention? How did such a trivial matter get the Saintess' attention!?

”Where is the evidence?” Xinxia demanded.

”We...we are still investigating...” Priest Bude began to stammer.

”You are still investigating?” Xinxia's voice turned colder.

”Ye...yes, they were using magic on the sacred ground of Mount Lanmu, and we didn't see anyone else apart from them,” Bude answered, trying to keep a clear mind.

”Why didn't you treat his injuries!?” Xinxia demanded.

She rose from her wheelchair with a menacing bearing, unlike her usual feeble appearance!

”I...I was busy investigating the incident, I didn't have time...” Bude tried to explain himself.

”Nonsense!” Xinxia's eyes suddenly sharpened. There was no wind inside the room, but her hair and her clothes were drifting wildly, as if her anger had burst out from her heart. A strong spiritual tide slammed into Bude's mind fiercely!

Bude subconsciously resisted it, but he had no chance of defending himself. Not only was he knocked flying, his soul took a serious blow!

The people in the interrogation room fell to their knees after feeling the wrath of the Saintess. The three Great Priests were about to ask something, but the Saintess best known for her gentle nature had suddenly unleashed her wrath without any mercy. They also dropped to their knees, and did not dare say a single word!

Apollo, Mu Ningxue, and Tata were standing there shocked behind Xinxia. It was Tata's first time seeing Xinxia behave like this!

Bude's mind was severely impacted. His hat fell to the ground, and his hair was disheveled. He propped himself up against the wall miserably.

He did not dare to put up a fight, finally realizing that the young man he captured had an unusual background. He did not dare to pretend to be in pain, and quickly crawled over to Xinxia and stuck his head to the ground.

”I've failed to fulfill my duties. Saintess, please forgive me!” Bude was utterly terrified.

”Silence!” Xinxia snapped.

The Great Priest was stunned. He was one of the three Great Priests in charge of the Hall of Faith. Normally, he would not treat the words of the Candidates seriously. He had the urge to intervene when he saw the Candidate mistreating his subordinate, but the Candidate did not give him any face!
