Walking back on the road, Zhu Zhuyun, Zhu Zhuya, and Zhu Zhuyi were whispering to each other in front, occasionally looking back at Wang Zhong, their bright eyes filled with indignation.
In their opinion, Wang Zhong had planned everything, from beginning to end, and even calculated how much Golden Soul Coins they had, deliberately so.
If Wang Zhong knew their thoughts, he would cry out in injustice, for he truly hadn't calculated these things.
It was merely because of Keynes's despicable character that he was holding a red crystal card and unable to use it.
Seeing the three sisters interacting with him as if guarding against him, Wang Zhong, holding Zhu Zhuqing's small hand, walked behind, his face full of helplessness.
Who knew it would be such a coincidence?
As the five of them were walking on the street, a troop of soldiers in armor suddenly rushed towards them, surrounding them.
"You little beast, do you know what the crime is for insulting the Spirit Hall!"
A cold, mocking voice rang out, with a disgusting tone. Keynes strode over in a swagger.
His gaze first greedily swept over the three daughters, Zhu Zhuyun, before turning fiercely to Wang Zhong.
Taking two steps forward, he handed Zhu Zhuqing to Zhu Zhuyun and Wang Zhong stepped in front of the girls, chuckling, "Bishop Keynes's words are rather strange."
"We are walking on the street, casually strolling, how has it become related to the grave matter of insulting the Spirit Hall."
Keynes stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Wang Zhong as if he were a livestock that did not know its own mortality.
"Heh heh, you little bastard, why aren't you so tough now!"
"In the auction house, weren't you very arrogant!"
"You kept bidding prices rapidly, completely disregarding me."
Wang Zhong's eyes narrowed, and he gently shook his head, saying with a sigh, "The rules of the auction house were made very clear, the highest bidder wins!"
"Since I wanted that crystal, naturally, I had to bid a higher price."
"It's just that I didn't expect His Excellency the Bishop to have such generosity, to spend a hundred million just to buy a crystal that is almost useless."
"With such financial resources, I am far inferior, so I can only give up!"
"Throughout the entire process, I acted strictly according to the rules. Where was there any mention of insulting the Spirit Hall!"
Keynes sneered, "When you competed with me, you were already insulting my Spirit Hall!"
"The Spirit Hall is supreme. How can you suppress me!"
This was a very novel argument, at least Wang Zhong found it quite interesting.
If I bid, you cannot bid, otherwise it is an insult to me, and to the power behind me!
It was inexplicably arrogant, even to the point of shamelessness.
Did such an argument truly bring honor? True nobility?
"Vile clown!"
"A model of abuse of power, daring to equate your own face with the honor and dignity of the Spirit Hall!"
Wang Zhong's cold shout was without any reservation. The passers-by who were already curious due to the soldiers' actions, surrounded them, and upon hearing this, everyone felt a sense of astonishment.
As Keynes said, the Spirit Hall was supreme, and who dared to challenge its authority and dignity!
"You, Keynes, belong to the Spirit Hall, but it does not mean the Spirit Hall belongs to you, Keynes!"
"The honor and dignity of the Spirit Hall were earned by generations of people who stepped forward, disregarding their lives, and fought fiercely with evil soul masters."
"It was bestowed by angelic successors who, with the original intention of light and protection, continuously protected the continent, causing it to bloom and shine!"
"You, a mere Platinum Bishop, sent here by the favor of the Pope, were intended to spread the Spirit Hall's teachings of protecting the continent, and to spread the light and holiness of the angels!"
"And you! You rely on the grace bestowed by the Pope, act recklessly, lawlessly, disregard the honor of the Spirit Hall, take the glory of the angels as your own, and use it as the foundation and cover for all your evil deeds."
"Keynes, you are too bold!"
"Do you know your crime!"
The powerful voice, like a great bell, resonated through the hearts of everyone present.
The young man's fearless and upright voice stirred many people, making them excited and agitated.
The Spirit Hall knights holding their long spears around them felt a strange sense of absurdity at this moment, as if their spears should not be pointed at Wang Zhong, but at Bishop Keynes!
Wang Zhong's shout was powerful and majestic, and the sense of judgment hidden within it made Keynes involuntarily take a step back.
When he realized what had happened, an extreme sense of humiliation, resentment, and rage surged into his brain, making his face turn red.
A dignified Platinum Bishop was actually stunned into retreating by a little beast who appeared out of nowhere, in full view of everyone, with just a few words.
His face was completely disgraced!
This meant that the Spirit Hall's face had also been slapped hard!
"You little beast, since when has it been your turn to point fingers at the affairs of my Spirit Hall!"
"You illegitimate offspring, born without a mother, your whore mother..."
*Slap!*
Before Keynes could finish his curse, which was driven by extreme anger, a powerful and heavy slap landed on that thin, repulsive face without any reservation.
The flesh on his face burst open, and his teeth were ground into powder, mixed with blood that poured out. His entire skull almost exploded under this blow.
Intense pain surged into his brain, causing Keynes to cry out in pain on the spot, a shrill and agonizing sound.
"What happened to my mother!"
"Keynes, you are seeking death!"
With one foot on Keynes's chest, Wang Zhong's originally emerald green eyes were now filled with bloodshot and rage.
A terrifying and mighty pressure erupted from Wang Zhong's body like a volcanic eruption. That terrifying aura made the onlookers around him gasp for breath.
The soldiers holding their long spears trembled uncontrollably.
Wang Zhong had, from the bottom of his heart, recognized Bibi Dong as his own mother. As a son, how could he allow anyone to insult her!
He slowly increased the pressure under his foot, and the sound of cracking bones echoed in everyone's ears, making many people's scalps tingle.
He wanted to kill Keynes!
The thought appeared in his mind, and everyone present was terrified.
"Wang Zhong, no!"
Zhu Zhuyun was the first to react and rushed forward, grabbing Wang Zhong's arm and anxiously persuading him.
"Keynes is a Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall. If you kill him in public, it means you are at odds with them!"
"The Spirit Hall is all over the continent, and its power is extraordinary!"
"I think Miss Zhu Zhuyun is right, you cannot kill him for now!" A gentle and calm voice emerged from the crowd.
It was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance but a very gentle temperament. He wore the characteristic robes of the Spirit Hall, but unlike Keynes, his robes were red.
The moment he appeared, many people around him showed him gentle attitudes and smiles; this person held a significant position and influence among the crowd.
"Red-robed Archbishop, Lu Yun, greets this young lord."
With one hand on his chest, Lu Yun bowed respectfully to Wang Zhong.
"Archbishop Keynes has made mistakes, but you are not qualified to judge or sentence him!"
"His life belongs to His Holiness the Pope!"
Looking at the man's calm and gentle smiling face, Wang Zhong took a deep breath and finally slowly retracted his foot.
"Thank you for your understanding."
"Someone, take the Archbishop down and treat him well."
"And this young lord, please come with us!"
Lu Yun pointed to the side with one finger, bent his upper body halfway, and gestured for Wang Zhong to follow him.
