Chapter 1177: Divine Knight, the Holy See’s Combat Power Ceiling
With eight cardinals and dozens of paladins, and so many powerful people backing up the Son of Saint John, and the fact that this was the headquarters of the Holy See, he straightened his back and was no longer as afraid as he was at the beginning.
As long as he gives the order, a group of masters of the Holy See can launch a thundering attack on Chen Yang and the Old Wolf King.
However, if he could avoid fighting this tough battle, he really didn't want to fight, because in the end, he would hurt the enemy by a thousand and his own by eight hundred.
He hoped that Chen Yang could recognize the situation, value peace, let the past go, and not make himself unhappy.
"hehe!"
But Chen Yang sneered and responded to Saint John by stomping his foot heavily.
Click!
Pfft!
There was a crisp explosion sound, and Cardinal Charlie was actually crushed by Chen Yang's foot, turning into a pool of bloody mud on the spot, with blood flowing all over the ground.
The so-called indestructible body of the Holy Light Glaze of the Small Accomplishment was as fragile as paper under Chen Yang's feet and was completely vulnerable.
"No!" Cardinal Charles let out a heart-wrenching howl.
When the cry fell, not even a wisp of the soul could be held on to, and it shattered along with the body.
A dignified cardinal, a powerful god-level warrior, was trampled to death like this.
"Hiss, hiss..."
“He actually…!”
"How dare he...? Isn't he afraid of retaliation from the Holy See?"
"What a guts!"
……
Chen Yang actually stepped on a cardinal of the Holy See to death with one foot, which was something no one had expected.
A war is inevitable!
"It's over, it's over. If we kill the cardinal, the Holy See will definitely fight to the death." Fang Tongtong, a rich and beautiful girl in Shanghai, looked nervous and anxious.
"Fight, fight quickly! Stop nagging and chattering. Do you have so much to say? Are you going to fight or just swear?" Wu Kai's face was almost wrinkled with laughter, and he was looking forward to the battle starting soon.
"Great Demon King of the East, you are courting death!"
The Son of God John was extremely furious and his eyes were bloodshot.
He is the Son of God of the Holy See and the future successor to the Pope, and yet he is being attacked right in the face.
If today's matter is not handled properly, and the Holy See loses face, his position as the Son of God will definitely come to an end.
The Pope has not shown up yet, and it is not ruled out that he wants to see his ability to handle things.
"Let's go together and kill him! Blood debt must be repaid with blood." The Son of Saint John gave the order.
At this point, he had no choice but to fight.
However, he did not choose to fight Chen Yang alone because he did not have the courage to do so. Instead, he ordered all the cardinals and paladins under his command to take action in a group fight to use the advantage of numbers to bully the minority.
Because he knew that he was no match for Chen Yang.
In the past two years, his cultivation has not made much progress.
Since Chen Yang was able to leave the Twilight of the Gods world, his cultivation must have improved, and it is unknown to what extent he has become.
"Eight divine cardinals, plus me, and dozens of paladins, should be able to fight them on equal terms, right?" He muttered to himself, without any full confidence at all.
Boom boom boom!
In an instant, eight divine cardinals, dozens of paladins, and the Son of Saint John himself, all raised their aura to the extreme, each brewing their own supreme attack, striving to crush Chen Yang and the old wolf king in one go.
A shocking war is about to break out!
Facing so many powerful men, Chen Yang was not afraid at all. His eyes were full of indifference, as if he was looking directly at a group of chickens and dogs. Only a terrifying murderous aura was released from his body.
Since the Holy See is stubborn and unyielding, he will start a massacre today, even if it means wiping the Holy See off the planet.
"Stop it, everyone! A cardinal was just trampled to death. Isn't that embarrassing enough?"
At this moment, a sudden angry roar came from the depths of the inner city.
Everyone looked closely and saw a man in golden armor walking towards them. The voice he shouted was like the sound of the great way, which was deafening.
Obviously, his words were not directed at Chen Yang and the Old Wolf King, but at the Son of Saint John, eight cardinals, and a group of paladins, asking them to stop and not attack Chen Yang.
His words were very effective. After hearing his words, Saint John, eight cardinals, and a group of paladins all stopped immediately and did not launch the attack they were planning.
Their faces were filled with confusion and awe of the newcomers.
The newcomer was seen holding a silver spear in one hand. Even before he arrived, the cold and biting murderous intent was already overwhelming, making people tremble. His whole body was shrouded in holy light, and there was a divine halo behind his head. He was like an ancient god walking towards them, oppressing the tourists outside the city gate so much that they could not raise their heads and could not help but want to kneel down again.
Often a person's temperament is enough to explain everything. This man in golden armor is very strong, far stronger than the Son of God John and far stronger than the eight cardinals.
"Who is this person? The Pope of the Holy See?"
"That's not right. Isn't the Pope of the Holy See a white-haired old man? This person is too young. He looks to be in his forties or fifties at most."
"The Pope of the Holy See is named Francis. I have met him, but he is not this person."
……
The tourists at the city gate exclaimed, and the first person they thought of was the Pope of the Holy See.
However, as one of the tourists said, this person is very young, and looks to be about fifty years old. He is tall and strong, with a natural height of about 1.9 meters, like a walking monument. He has very thick long golden hair, and the skin on his face is very tight, without a trace of wrinkles, as smooth as jade, and his facial features are sharp and angular, as if they were cut by a knife or an axe.
However, for cultivators, it is difficult to tell their age if they only look at the surface, because people in the divine realm can easily live to one or two hundred years old, and even at the age of one hundred, they sometimes look very young.
For powerful beings, you can get a glimpse of their age by observing their eyes.
The eyes of the man in golden armor were a little dim, deep and vicissitudes, engraved with the traces of time.
Obviously, this person is not as young as he looks, in his forties or fifties, but has lived a very long life.
He is not the old Pope of the Holy See, but a stabilizing force of the Holy See, a divine knight beyond the Paladins, and can even be understood as the guardian elder of the Holy See, named Saint Aaron.
The fact that he has the word "holy" in front of his name is enough to show that he is an extraordinary person.
His position in the Holy See is second only to the old Pope, St. Francis.
According to legend, Saint Aaron was born with the power of light awakened. He was the reincarnation of an angel and grew up in an ancient monastery. Later, he was taken away by the Holy See and was once named the Son of God and trained as the successor to the Pope.
However, this person is obsessed with cultivation and has no interest in worldly affairs. He is not good at talking, is frugal with words, and is not good at interacting with others.
However, the Pope of the Holy See has to deal with the secular world and even participate in exchanges between countries. He cannot keep to himself.
So the Holy See was finally forced to abolish his Son of God and pass the throne to another prodigy of the Holy See, Francis, the current Pope.
In other words, the current Holy See Pope St. Francis can become Pope thanks to St. Aaron.
Of course, he did not disappoint the Holy See. He was first a Paladin, and later promoted to a Divine Knight, and the most powerful Divine Knight.
To some extent, he could even compete with the Pope, but he was just low-key and had no desire for power or money. He was only devoted to cultivation in this life.
He has been dormant and in seclusion for too long. The last time he took action was decades ago. In a great battle with the blood clan, his fighting power even crushed the blood clan's Blood Emperor. Now, decades later, no one knows how strong he is. Even the people of the Holy See itself cannot estimate his powerful fighting power.
As for his realm, he was in the late stage of the Divine Realm a few decades ago, and should have reached the Great Perfection of the Divine Realm by now, and might even have condensed the Yuan Dan. However, he was unable to attract the thunder tribulation and could not achieve the Golden Dan.
To some extent, the Divine Knight represented the Holy See's strongest fighting force. If even he was defeated, it would mean the Holy See was defeated.
"Divine Knight, why did he come out? Did the Pope let him out?" The Son of Saint John was shocked.
He knew that the Divine Knight had come out of seclusion probably because the Pope did not trust him and wanted the Divine Knight to help him settle the matter.
Under normal circumstances, the Divine Knight would not show up.
A ray of holy light spread out under the feet of the Divine Knight, like a broad road, extending towards the direction of the city gate.
The divine knight Saint Aaron was walking on this avenue paved with holy light, as if he had used some magical power to shrink the distance. He was still hundreds of meters away in the last second, but in the blink of an eye, he appeared outside the city gate and stood in front of Chen Yang.
His deep eyes shot out two cold rays of light, like two sharp swords, pointing directly at Chen Yang.
In an instant, the Divine Knight overshadowed everyone, including Chen Yang.
At this moment, the scene was silent!
The onlookers dared not say a word and were all silent.
The Son of Saint John, the eight cardinals, and all the paladins were all extremely respectful and obediently put away their magical powers.
As the mainstay of the Holy See, the chief guardian elder, the strongest man, the Divine Knight shocked the whole audience with just one word!
This is his courage!
"Sir Divine Knight, now is not the time for you to take action. The eight cardinals and I are enough to control him." Saint John said somewhat dissatisfiedly, feeling that the Divine Knight had stolen his limelight.
If Chen Yang was captured, this great achievement would be attributed to his Son John, which would be enough to make him famous in history and become a world-renowned celebrity. Even the Star-Spangled Empire would have to thank his ancestors for eight generations.
Eight cardinals in the God Realm, plus him, a total of nine God Realm, plus dozens of paladins, there is no reason why they can't take down Chen Yang. Even if Chen Yang has an old wolf king to help him.
"How much are you prepared to pay to capture him? How many bishops are you prepared to die? How many knights? Are you going to smash the entire city of Brahma into pieces, with blood flowing everywhere and corpses piled up like mountains? My Holy See cannot afford such a price!" The Divine Knight said coldly, his eyes fixed on Chen Yang, without even glancing at the Son of Saint John.
"This……"
Saint John's face was burning and he hesitated.
It's not that he hadn't thought about it. Even if he won this battle, it would be a situation where he would hurt the enemy by a thousand and his own by eight hundred, and the Holy See would suffer a huge loss.
If Brahma City is really destroyed and causes heavy casualties, he will no longer be the Son of God.
Moreover, facing the two invincible beings of Chen Yang and Old Wolf King, the Holy See would surely have the upper hand, and killing them would be as difficult as ascending to heaven. If the two escaped, no one would be able to stop them.
Especially since Chen Yang was able to kill the Blood Emperor of the Blood Clan two years ago, and now, two years later, he didn't know how powerful he was, which made him feel uncertain. If his Holy See was completely wiped out, he would have no tears to cry.
"Do you understand now? If you understand, go back to seclusion. You are not allowed to come out until you break through the late stage of the Divine Realm!" The Divine Knight Saint Aaron said coldly to the Son of Saint John.
To the Son of Saint John, the Divine Knight was not only an elder, but also a half-master because he had taught him before.
"Yes, I will go back to retreat now."
The Son of God John said with a look of shame that he dared not disobey the will of the Divine Knight. He retreated respectfully, ready to go into seclusion honestly.
At this moment, Chen Yang's angry voice was heard: "Go, where to go? Did I let you go? John, I came here today to take your head. If you refuse to surrender, then I will kill everyone in the Holy See. Even the gods can't stop me."
"you……"
When the Son of Saint John heard this, his body trembled.
The Knight looked at Chen Yang with indifference and said unhappily, "Chen Tianren of the Eastern Great Country, even if there are some grievances between you and the Holy Son of our Church, they are all in the past. If you tear your face apart and fight to the point of chaos because of a woman, it will only add to the international jokes. As the saying goes, a smile can erase all grudges. There is no hatred in this world that cannot be resolved. If you are willing to step back, my Holy See will not hold you accountable for killing a cardinal. Peace is the most important thing for us."
The Divine Knight spoke in a kind manner, not as strong as everyone thought.
When he said this, everyone understood that Chen Yang, alone, was qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Holy See and could defeat a major sect of the time.
To a certain extent, the Divine Knight has surrendered, humbled himself, and does not want to go to war with Chen Yang.
If it were an ordinary god, the divine knight would not be so polite and would have thrust out a spear, picked up the person on the tip of the spear, and then shattered him in mid-air.
"I'm sorry, I've always been narrow-minded and can't tolerate any grain of sand in my eyes. Women are my bottom line, whoever touches them will die. If you are willing to hand over the thief John, let him take the consequences of his own actions, and let the Pope come forward to say a few words of apology, I may not let your Holy See go." Chen Yang said lightly, with a cold murderous intent in his eyes that he did not conceal. Not only did he not agree to the conditions proposed by the Divine Knight Saint Aaron, he also did not take him seriously.
After hearing what Chen Yang said, the tourists around him finally realized that Chen Yang had come to the Holy See for a woman. It seemed that his woman had come to the Holy See to demand an explanation from the Holy See because of some harm done to the Son of Saint John, and that she wanted the Son of Saint John to die as an apology.
