Chapter 2726
Celine was confused by the sight of this. "Mr. Chen, w- what happened? Why is the cardinal..."
Fade explained faintly, “I have killed Mauss and the others. He is scared of me now."
"What?" She exclaimed in shock.
He slowly explained what happened.
After hearing this, she fell silent and her lips twitched. She wanted to say something, but no words came to her mouth.
At this time, he had taken her to the bathroom.
Without stopping, he went straight in.
Her face instantly turned red. She lowered her head and said shyly, "Uh, I can do the rest by myself."
"Are you sure?" He asked with concern.
"Yes..." She was just about to nod, but the act of it tugged at her wound. She couldn't help but let out a groan.
Seeing this, he said, "Your injuries are too serious. Let me help you."
"But... But..." Her face turned red.
At this time, he gently waved his hand and closed the bathroom door.
More than half an hour later, Fade came out with Celine. She was dressed in a fresh set of clothes. Not only had the stains on her body been washed away, but her lighter wounds had also been healed by him with his wood essence.
At that moment, she had returned to her beautiful, angelic state.
In fact, due to her shyness, her face was tinged with an intoxicating blush.
"Are you ready?" He held her hand and asked softly.
She nodded, her eyes resolute. "I'm ready. I'll tell them everything I know."
Then, the two of them walked out together.
Outside the hall, in addition to the reporters and passers-by who were watching, more people had gathered after having heard the news.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
The crowd was bustling with excitement. When they saw Fade and Celine walk out together, they instantly fell silent.
Then, all of a sudden, the silence instantly turned into noise. Countless questions were thrown toward the two.
Seeing this, Fade made a soft noise and an invisible sound wave surged out, directly suppressing the noisy scene.
His expression was solemn and he stated in a deep voice, "I already said at the press conference that my witness is Saintess Celine. Now that she's here, she'll explain to everyone what happened that day!"
After that, he nodded at her and gave her an encouraging look.
She nodded slightly. She then took a light step forward and said slowly, "That day, Princess Erin was holding a celebratory banquet. Mr. Chen..."
She finished her entire story, which was basically exactly what Fade had said in the first place.
Then, she revealed what had happened to her over the past few months.
After an arrest warrant was released for Fade, he managed to escape Earland. However, Celine was taken back by the Sacred Hall. Mauss asked her to appear in public to accuse Fade of assaulting her, but she refused.
Thus, he locked her up and tortured her nonstop, trying to force her to accuse Fade.
In the end, she still refused to admit it. In fact, she even found out a huge secret during this process.
That was, in the Sacred Hall, Mauss, second only to the Sacred Lord, had secretly cultivated demonic skills.
The front part of her testimony was no surprise to anyone. After all, she had walked out hand in hand with Fade. Who knew if she was being controlled by him or not?
Therefore, many people were still skeptical about the truth of the situation.
However, her accusing Mauss of cultivating demonic skills was no small matter.
It must be known that the Sacred
Hall had always claimed to be
orthodox of justice. They were representatives of God in the human world They believed that all those who did not believe in them would belong to heresy.
Of course, since their influence was mostly widespread in Earland, many people were considered heretics to them. For example, Fade was previously called a heretic.
Under normal circumstances, the Sacred Hall might look down on these types of heretics, or they might have some slight attitude towards them. Either way, it was the same thing.
Apart from these people, there was also another group known as the demons.
For example, the ancient Blood Ancestors, werewolves, sirens, and so on. These demons were known to be the ultimate enemies of the Sacred Hall. Their methods of combat were known as demonic skills.
In order to suppress the demons and prevent them from causing trouble, the Sacred Hall had
prohibited humans from practicing demonic skills a thousand years ago Even if they came into contact with demonic skills, they would be punished heavily.
It could be said that the Sacred Hall and the demons were on completely opposite ends.
Yet right then, Celine claimed that Mauss had cultivated this particular area of skills.
That was absolutely mind-blowing news. It was even more shocking than Fade killing hundreds of people of the Sacred Hall. The position of the Sacred Hall in the hearts of the people had been shaken violently.
For a time, the news spread like wildfire throughout the country, causing countless discussions.
"That's impossible! That's absolutely impossible! I don't believe this lie!"
"Celine and Fade are very close. I think she's under his control. She must be lying!"
"It can't be real. The Sacred Hall has fought against demons for nearly a thousand years. They are known mortal enemies. How could Mr. Mauss be cultivating demonic skills in secret?"
"Fade is too vicious. Killing them all wasn't enough. He still wants to ruin the Sacred Hall's reputation."
"Mr. Mauss lost. At most, that proves he is weaker than Fade, but slandering him for cultivating demonic skill is pure evil."
Online, almost everyone was in an uproar. No one really believed Celine's claim.
Fade didn't bother to explain much with regards to this matter. After hearing what she said, he held her hand and looked in the direction of the palace. "It's time to go to our next destination."
After that, he held her hand and shot up into the air.
Below, the group of onlookers was immediately shocked.
"He left again. What is he going to do now?"
"Didn't you hear him say that he was going to the next destination?"
"Where is that?"
"The palace of course! Didn't you hear what he said? Princess Erin is possessed by some demon. He is obviously going to go look for her now!"
"How dare he! He thinks he can just break into the Sacred Hall and then the palace? Is he trying to get himself killed?"
"From what we witnessed earlier, it's hard to say who's the one that's going to end up dead."
"Hurry up and follow him. This is huge news. We can't miss it."
Immediately, the crowd began to head towards the palace.
