I, a Mental Patient, Was Chosen to Participate in AnalogHorror Chapter 258 - 225: The Sacred and Cunning Dual Cultivation o

It wasn’t long before.

As Jiang Xiao was patrolling around the cathedral, looking for anything peculiar,

Mu Xitang ca running over, huffing and puffing, followed by the three bearded n.

Behind them was a group of nuns who wanted to chase, but their faces were filled with fear.

At this ti, Mu Xitang was draped in liturgical vestnts and wielding a ceremonial staff, giving off the vibe of a young child-version of Monk Tang.

"Daddy, I’ve decided, from today onward, I’m going to delve into the Bible!"

Jiang Xiao: ?

Although Daddy doesn’t want to dampen your enthusiasm for studying,

isn’t it a bit out of your professional field if you, a weird kid, study the Bible?

"What happened?"

Jiang Xiao asked the three n behind him.

"Uh..."

Hei i pondered for a bit before speaking.

"It’s like this: The Priest saw that our Sect Hierarch Xi Tang had exceptional bone structure and brilliant talents, so he decided to pass on the Bible to her."

Jiang Xiao glanced at the nuns behind him and saw they all looked like they had sothing to say but were holding back.

"To be honest..."

Hei i scratched her head awkwardly.

"Y’know, Brother Jiang Xiao, I tried to persuade her, but the Sect Hierarch wouldn’t listen."

"Not only did she not listen, but she also beat up the Priest again..."

"Not just that, she beat him up in front of those nuns. The Priest’s face was trampled on like a doormat. After beating him up, she insisted on snatching the Bible, saying she could also have a blast being the Priest."

Jiang Xiao: ...

Honestly, Mu Xitang hasn’t picked up a single one of my good qualities.

But wasn’t little pink hair always really afraid of the strength of priests and nuns? How did she dare to hit the Priest?

"Nuonuo, wearing these clothes, their ’oh Lord’ can’t hurt !"

Mu Xitang was saying this while making the sign of the cross on her chest, seeming quite devout.

She even boasted that now, being both "holy" and "devious," she was invincible in the world.

Next, she just needed to morize the Bible, and then she could dominate the martial world!

After all, what’s so hard about morizing a Bible for a girl with the skill of "Quantum Fluctuation Reading"?

"Forget it, let her be. By the way, did little pink hair apologize after beating soone up?"

"No, she did not. After beating up my father, she arrogantly mocked the Priest, saying his abilities were ager, just an inch or two..."

Jiang Xiao: ...

Not only was this a slap in the face, but did she also have to attack soone’s physical shortcomings so fiercely?

"Never mind, you guys go and apologize to the Priest, otherwise it’ll be very awkward when we eat here later, won’t it?"

Jiang Xiao spoke sense –

But with Mu Xitang’s personality, how could she possibly apologize?

So, the others had to get one of the bearded n to return to the Priest’s room and very sincerely apologize on behalf of Mu Xitang.

"Hiss..."

After the bearded man left, the Priest thoughtfully touched the little handprint on his face.

Although the other party had apologized, why did he feel even more annoyed?

Truly bizarre.

Could it be that the God who had always protected him was out today and not at ho?

The fight had caused him to lose his vestnts and staff, a not insignificant loss, but it was within his capacity to accept.

As long as he was still around, there was always an opportunity for a coback.

"Reflecting for so long, the main issue seems to be that my composure isn’t stable enough, a few words from that kid could break my defense..."

"My state of mind isn’t pure enough, ah, I still haven’t mastered the Bible, no wonder even God is not on my side this ti."

"And that kid is too dishonorable, resorting to sneak attacks is one thing, but targeting below the belt, even using a ’Shoe tip blade’ coated with laxative, truly indefensible."

After such reflections,

The Priest felt he would definitely not make the sa naive mistakes next ti.

Under the diligent work of the many culinary nuns,

Plate after plate of delicious dishes was quickly brought to the Romia Cathedral’s dining hall.

It must be said that the defensive capability of this place was truly exceptional.

The exterior seed severely damaged, but inside, everything seed as usual.

If the Priest hadn’t insisted on opening the door to go out, the firepower of the bearded n and company might have been enough to force their way in.

Mu Xitang, draped in liturgical vestnts, very rudely took the seat of honor.

The Priest was not annoyed, sitting cheerfully to the left of Mu Xitang, directly opposite Jiang Xiao.

Apart from Jiang Xiao’s group and the Priest, only five senior nuns were qualified to sit at the table.

"The saying goes there should be resolution rather than prolongation of conflict. I won’t ask why you ca to provoke . Let’s consider the vestnts and staff as toys I’ve given to the child. Co now, let’s have so fine brandy, which I only serve to my most esteed guests."

Setting aside his identity as a Priest,

This manner and upbringing made it easy to take a liking to him.

Anyone else encountering what the Priest faced today would probably not show a good expression to Jiang Xiao.

Life was going along just fine.

In the church, singing songs with his nuns.

Suddenly, they were attacked with a bazooka at their doorstep.

Taking soone on in a fight and playing so dirty, with low blows and drugging...

But the Priest not only refrained from anger, he even warmly hosted them.

He also gave his important liturgical robes and staff as a gift to Mu Xitang.

Of course, it was all just polite talk, but what else could they do? Could they take it back?

No matter what, the Priest’s words were comforting to hear, especially the phrase "a gift for the child."

Invisibly, this closed the distance with Jiang Xiao, evoking a sense of closeness.

Anyone unaware of the situation might think Jiang Xiao and the Priest were long-lost cousins.

"Cough, soon-to-be-retired Priest, the Lord asks you to explain this demon contract; spill the beans."

Despite Mu Xitang’s disrespectful words, the Priest showed no sign of anger.

"Not familiar with the demon contract? You must be experts from another city. It’s not really a secret, it’s just a deal between and them."

"Why a demon contract, when you are a believer in God?"

The Priest shook his head, "To completely eradicate demonic power, we must first understand it."

"So, this contract is your way to understand demonic power? You’ve been using demonic power to study it?"

The Priest nodded, implicitly admitting to this.

The nuns present were surprised; the Priest’s involvent with demonic power was sothing they had not known before.

But even with this revelation, they remained utterly loyal to the Priest.

"After all these years, what I an is, might you have been subtly infected by demonic power?"

Everyone’s gaze turned collectively to Mu Xitang.

No one expected the pink-haired one to co out with such a "profound" statent.

One of the nuns beca visibly agitated; it was unbearable for her to hear their Priest slandered repeatedly.

"How dare you!"

"Elya, be quiet."

The Priest calmly took a scoop of caviar with a spoon and spread it onto a piece of bread.

"Demonic power is indeed fearso, but I am now in the Bright Church, praying daily with 88 nuns morning, noon, and night. I firmly believe that with these conditions, I will never lose myself to demonic power."

It seed the Priest was aware of the tricky nature of eerie powers.

Hence the establishnt of Romia Cathedral, to prevent him from turning into sothing strange.

To allay any doubts, the Priest even suggested that Jiang Xiao have his staff verified by a professional institution.

It was filled with the power of faith and light.

And his reputation as Ai Haitie Tiedan, though not grand, was at least on par with the pinnacle achievent of one of the nine continents’ cities.

If he were a demon, he would have been taken care of by now!

Contrary to what the group had imagined, the Priest did not seem to be a strange entity, just a human with formidable individual strength.

Not right?

The black girl caught a crucial piece of information in the Priest’s words!

"Deal? What do you an by saying it was just a trade?"

The Priest swallowed his food and dabbed the corners of his mouth with a napkin elegantly.

"The contract is rely a qualification for them to negotiate with demons. The decision to trade still rests in their hands. They use their own emotions and mories from life to obtain the opportunity to transform into a demon once. It’s a good deal, isn’t it?"

"They" surely referred to the won who signed the contract.

"Don’t you think such practices are unfair to n?" After holding back for so long, the bearded man finally spoke.

"Unfair?" The Priest shrugged. "How is it unfair? Tell , I’m listening."

The bearded man repeated the rationale they’d discussed earlier:

Won signing the contract was akin to "legitimate firearm possession."

The Priest looked at the bearded man in amazent, not understanding how he could think from such an angle.

"So I ask you, aren’t n inherently stronger and more robust than won?"

"Yes."

"Then can I assu that under equal conditions, a man can easily kill a woman?"

"Correct..."

"Then why don’t you say that n are inherently ’legally ard’? Because historically, n have always been stronger than won in terms of combat value."

Hiss?

Ah, well...

It sort of makes sense.

Although it felt like sothing was off about the Priest’s words.

The bearded man and the curly-haired man had a lot they wanted to say but couldn’t quite figure out how to express it.

While everyone was searching for flaws in the Priest’s rhetoric,

Mu Xitang’s staff was already about to hit Ai Haitie Tiedan’s face, and she burst out angrily,

"Pah! I’ve road the jianghu for many years, Mu Xitang, and this is the first ti I’ve t soone as utterly shaless as you! You, Priest, make sick!"

"Oh? Little sister, all I’ve done is for God, for Allah, I have even used myself to bait demons, all to find a way to eliminate the dark forces of the world. Please tell , where am I shaless?"

The nearby nuns began defending the Priest as well.

"Yes, although we’ve signed the contract, whether we beco demons is still our own decision. The Father has done no wrong."

"If a demon does erge, our church will handle it, typically resolved within ’three hours.’ In addition to our internal staff, there are our outsourced companies throughout the city, skilled in dealing with demons."

"We take responsibility not only for the demons resulting from our contract but also for native demons, just like... the kind you are."

The last nun didn’t mince words, directly challenging Mu Xitang’s strange identity.
