Chapter 272: Chapter 189 He is not the murderer!
Blood flowed like a babbling brook, slowly spreading in all directions.
It was undoubtedly a fatal wound.
Even a High Rank Transcendent, without using the power of the Divine-given factor, had no chance of survival.
What more for a re Second Rank?
At this mont, the youth’s eyes dimd, his pupils dilated, and with a slight twitch, he fell to the ground with a “thud.”
Everyone’s gaze simultaneously converged on this sudden scene, their mouths slightly agape.
Clearly, for this arrogant offender who had angered Saint Laurent VI, they all intended to capture him alive and bring him before His Majesty for a reward.
Hence everyone had been so earnest in their hunt.
Even though, strictly speaking, the youth was a trophy of the Silent Church, with so many people present, so harbored dark thoughts of intercepting him halfway.
After all, it was a branch of the Holy Spirit Tree, and whoever obtained it could fulfill their wishes.
Power, wealth, status, won, Sealed Objects…
But now, their calculations had completely failed.
Saint Laurent VI wanted a living Lynn, not a dead man!
Thus, realizing the situation before them, the crowd suddenly beca filled with righteous indignation.
“Casimo! What on earth have you done?”
“As a soldier, do you intend to defy His Majesty?!!!”
“Who is your superior? And who gave you the orders just now?!!”
At this mont, all the Transcendents present were utterly infuriated by Casimo’s unilateral actions, loudly rebuking him.
“Stay calm.” The man nad Casimo, a killer from the Military Departnt, slowly sheathed his Military Dagger, “After this, soone will explain the reasons to you.”
He said with a smile.
Unfortunately, this response did not quell the anger in the crowd, and the arguing continued.
Almost no one cared about Lynn’s condition at the mont.
Only Tiya unconsciously stepped forward, her delicate, pale hands unknowingly clenched her skirt tightly, as if suppressing so emotions within her heart.
Before she could reach Lynn, however, she suddenly felt soone pull her.
Tiya turned around blankly to see that it was her good friend.
Louise had been silently observing her reactions from the start.
As a woman, acting on her sixth sense, she had long sensed sothing amiss about her friend.
And now, seeing her suspicions confird, Louise’s expression suddenly darkened: “Tiya, you and he…”
She stopped midsentence, unable to continue.
She looked at the sowhat bewildered Tiya, then at the black-haired youth lying in a pool of blood, her teeth gritted.
As the Holy Maiden endorsed by the Church, her every move represented the will of the Goddess.
So, Louise would not allow Tiya to engage in any conduct that would damage the image of the Church.
Even if stepping back ten thousand steps…
Why did it have to be this guy?!
The bastard who killed Sister Trina!!!
Louise, raised by nuns since childhood, now found herself in unprecedented agony.
Clearly, she had misunderstood the relationship between Tiya and Lynn.
“He’s dying, Louise, he…”
Tiya tried to maintain her usual cool and indifferent tone.
Unfortunately, a slight quiver in her voice revealed that she was not as calm as she appeared on the surface.
“Just let him die!” Louise interrupted her, gripping her wrist tightly, trying to bring her back to reality with pain. “Wake up, Tiya! He is a limb connector! That unforgivable murderer!!!”
“By feeling sympathy for him, where do you place all those innocent people he killed?”
“Such a person does not deserve to live in this world!”
“Besides, as the Silent Saintess, do you really want to do sothing undignified in front of so many people?!”
“And even if you save him now, what then? When he is judged, will our esteed Holy Daughter stoop so low as to go to the execution grounds to save him again?!”
Louise’s reaction showcased unprecedented anger.
Fortunately, as everyone was collectively condemning Casimo’s actions, and she spoke softly, no one noticed.
Her words seed to enlighten Tiya, instantly stiffening her body.
Indeed.
Even if she saved him now, what then?
Eventually… he had to die.
Better now than after being caught and tortured.
Xiya’s thods last ti were bloody, but in front of the truly cruel thods of those nobles, they hardly counted.
Besides, she had always wanted to find an opportunity to sever ties with him and return to her original life.
And wasn’t this the perfect opportunity?
Apart from her, the only other person who knew had died here.
Those things that had happened would never be known by anyone again.
For a mont, Tiya was trapped in confusion and struggle.
Seeing her current facial expression, Louise breathed a sigh of relief, then continued persuading: “In about a week, it’ll be the Moonlight Holy Scripture, and as the only one in this session of the Church who can receive the Goddess Blessing, you’re essential to the ceremony. You must maintain both physical and spiritual purity.”
“Since these people are so desperate, why not just leave this matter to them completely, and after it’s over, relax and prepare yourself in perfect condition for the upcoming celebrations.”
