Supreme Cultivation Chapter 455 - 454: In a Dilemma

Chapter 455: Chapter 454: In a Dilemma

The next day, after discussing with Ye Fan, Heather decided to take the initiative. The two left the Vampire Clan’s Holy Temple and headed toward the Holy Clan’s territory.

"Who’s our next target?" Ye Fan asked.

"Mingde Saint Envoy!" Heather responded.

Ye Fan was imdiately dumbfounded. Heather noticed sothing was off and asked him, "What’s wrong?"

"How about we switch to a different target first?" Ye Fan suggested awkwardly.

"Why? If we want to kill the three Holy Envoys, we must start with Mingde Saint Envoy. By killing him, we can temporarily block the news and keep the other two in the dark before we strike them together!" Heather explained.

Ye Fan expressed that he really couldn’t bring himself to do it. Although he had no personal connection to Mingde Saint Envoy, Scarlett had told him that the Holy Envoy was her father. Now that Scarlett was his woman, Mingde Saint Envoy was practically his father-in-law—or at least, a ready-made one.

If I really killed him, it would be incredibly hard to explain it to Scarlett. When I was thinking through the whole plan, how could I forget such a crucial detail? I must be losing my mind.

He awkwardly added, "Well... Mingde Saint Envoy’s daughter and I have so history."

Heather shot him a look of disdain, but fortunately for him, she was fairly open-minded. Had it been one of his other won, Ye Fan would have surely t a grisly end. "Just how many won do you have?" she said disdainfully. "No wonder I sensed the aura of the Holy Court on you! So the rumors weren’t baseless after all."

"Everyone has monts of impulse," Ye Fan said, embarrassed. "It’s forgivable, right? Forgivable!"

"Not targeting Mingde Saint Envoy is out of the question," Heather stated. "He is the strongest of the four Holy Envoys. Furthermore, his castle is the most important within the Holy Court. If we don’t deal with him first, it could affect the outco of our entire operation."

Hearing this, Ye Fan was stunned once again. "Do we really have to kill him?" he asked.

"We could just imprison him."

"Good idea!" Ye Fan imdiately agreed. Since killing this ready-made father-in-law was off the table, imprisoning him was a perfectly acceptable alternative.

The two set off at once and arrived in the domain of Mingde Saint Envoy. The strongest of the four Holy Envoys was also Scarlett’s father, which put Ye Fan in an awkward position. I really hope I can have a peaceful chat with him. It would be great to avoid a fight.

Upon their arrival, they found the European Church Court was on high alert, and everyone entering the domain was subject to inspection.

"Give

one day," Ye Fan told Heather. "I’ll try to communicate with Mingde Saint Envoy."

"What if he exposes your plan?" Heather asked imdiately.

"If he exposes my whereabouts, then there’s nothing more to discuss," Ye Fan said. Although he had this connection to Scarlett, the European Church Court was determined to kill him. Ye Fan believed that when his life was on the line, such relationships could be overlooked.

Heather nodded, and Ye Fan slipped into the domain.

He dialed Scarlett’s number.

"It’s rare for you to have ti to call ," Scarlett’s voice ca through the phone. "Have you given any more thought to pledging allegiance to the European Church Court?"

"I haven’t decided yet," Ye Fan said. "But I’m in your territory right now."

"Really?" Scarlett asked incredulously.

"Co out and you’ll see ." Ye Fan hung up.

Sure enough, Scarlett appeared a short while later. She was shocked that Ye Fan would co to her father’s domain, especially since security had been so strict recently. How did he even get in?

"Sneaking in like this... I think I’ll have to arrest you and press charges!" she said, feigning seriousness.

"Would I have snuck in if I wasn’t here to see you?" Ye Fan retorted.

Scarlett imdiately pressed her sword to his neck. "Only a fool would believe that. Spit it out, what’s your objective?"

"I truly don’t have one!" Ye Fan replied with a smile.

"You’d better not play dumb with ." It was clear Scarlett was serious.

Left with no choice, Ye Fan conceded, "I want to see your father."

"See my father? Why?" Scarlett asked.

"To talk to him," Ye Fan stated simply.

"My father will kill you on sight!" Scarlett warned.

"Give

a reason." Ye Fan was eager to know why.

"Because you stole his most beloved daughter," Scarlett explained. "His most beloved daughter, who was supposed to marry the Pope once he appeared! Now he has no idea how he’s going to explain this to the Pope, so you’ve naturally beco his primary target!"

Ye Fan hadn’t expected this complication. Now he finally understood why the Bright Angel had told him that getting entangled with Scarlett would end horribly. So, she was the woman predestined for the Pope.

"For love, I fear nothing," Ye Fan said to Scarlett with a smile. "Take

to him."

"I’m not joking," Scarlett said somberly. "If you see my father, he really will kill you."

"He can’t kill , don’t worry," Ye Fan insisted.

Scarlett knew that once Ye Fan made a decision, he wouldn’t change his mind. With that, she led him toward the European Church Court.

Outside the Mingde Temple, the Bright Angel spotted Ye Fan and shouted, "It’s you!"

As Mingde Saint Envoy’s most capable subordinate, he still harbored a grudge from his last defeat at Ye Fan’s hands. He never imagined the man would have the audacity to show up on his own.

"That’s right, it’s ," Ye Fan said.

The Bright Angel’s voice was cold. "You dare co back? Are you not afraid to die?"

"Of course I’m afraid of death," Ye Fan replied. "But a loser I’ve already beaten has no right to say such things to ."

"You’re courting death!"

Ignoring Scarlett’s attempts to stop him, the Bright Angel lunged at Ye Fan. However, when he was still five ters away, a powerful aura erupted from Ye Fan’s body. The Bright Angel was sent flying backward, coughing up blood. He couldn’t believe Ye Fan’s strength had progressed so rapidly; it was beyond anything he could have anticipated.

"Uncle, I couldn’t stop him," Scarlett said with a helpless shrug. "He’s just too hot-headed."

Then, she walked inside with Ye Fan. As they entered, Ye Fan shot a disdainful glance at the Bright Angel. Though furious, the angel could do nothing.

They arrived before the European Church Court’s main hall. A beam of white light—the very power of the Holy Light of the Church—descended. From it erged Mingde Saint Envoy, a middle-aged man with a noble and commanding presence.

Upon seeing Ye Fan, Mingde Saint Envoy imdiately unleashed a wave of pressure. Ye Fan knew it was directed at him, but he stood his ground, his expression unchanged.

Mingde Saint Envoy was inwardly shocked. "Daring to break into my European Church Court! Do you not fear death?"

"Of course I do," Ye Fan replied calmly. "But you won’t kill ."

"And why is that?" Mingde Saint Envoy looked at him, his eyes filled with contempt.

anwhile, Scarlett was caught in the middle, feeling utterly torn. She didn’t know whose side to take, as both n were people she could not bear to lose.
