The high priest sat dignifiedly in a wheelchair, with an elegant posture even though the tendons in his hands and feet were broken.
It was as if the person who had just said such cruel words was not himself.
There were many female relatives present, all of whom were former admirers of Fiennes. After all, this man had been at the top of the list of men most people wanted to marry for several years when he was alive!
They couldn't bear to see Fiennes' horrible appearance when he was dying, and now they heard that the high priest didn't even let go of the corpse, they couldn't help but explode!
No one knew who took the lead, but someone was already looking at the high priest pleadingly.
"Master Priest, although Master Fiennes committed a great crime of disrespect to you when he was alive, everything is over when he dies. You can just bury his body directly, okay?"
As soon as these words were spoken, many noble women nodded in agreement.
In the past, Fiennes had a reputation for being a playboy, but none of the women who had had affairs with him truly hated him.
Perhaps, it was because the man was always polite and could always see most keenly what they liked and disliked.
However, what Fiennes could give was only pampering, not love, and he never made any promise about marriage.
So when they heard that Fiennes would marry a commoner woman, they still felt resentful, but perhaps more so, envious.
Until the truth was known, until Fiennes died in such a terrible way.
It's such a pity that he died at the best age, in the prime of his life.
…
In just a few moments, more and more noble women came around to plead for Fiennes.
"High Priest, please spare Fiennes' body."
"Yes, the person is dead, why do you care about these things?"
The pleading voices came one after another, and they were sincere and heartfelt.
Fiennes probably never thought that he might have such a sincere admirer in his life.
He has been blinded by too many things in his life. If he had let go of those obsessions, perhaps the ending would have been different.
Fiennes is used to wrapping himself up. In fact, he may know how to pamper someone, but pampering is not love after all.
He had flirted with so many women, giving them his all without asking for anything in return, but every time someone fell in love with him, he would ruthlessly look for the next one.
Such a character is also bound to be tragic.
Due to the obstruction of the high priest, Fiennes' body was still lying there without anyone dealing with it, so Jiang Xuecheng still blindfolded Su Wan.
Although Su Wan couldn't see anything, when she heard the noisy cries of pleas around her, she subconsciously imagined the scene in her mind.
Su Wan sighed lightly, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"I can't believe that Fiennes actually has so many people who like him."
In Su Wan's opinion, Fiennes is an absolute beast with a mental illness.
But looking at the performance of those girls, they obviously don’t think so. Even though they have seen the miserable state of the high priest and also understood the cruelty of Fiennes, but...
Forget it. Compared to Fiennes, Su Wan thinks the high priestess is even more terrifying.
Even the dead are not spared!
To dispose of Fiennes' body in such a ruthless way is really...
Su Wan recalled what Fiennes said before he died, and shuddered again.
Jiang Xuecheng noticed Su Wan's strange change, silently stretched out his empty hand, and held Su Wan in his arms without giving her a chance to refuse.
"Wanwan, what's wrong with you?"
Although the man had a strong posture, his eyes were extremely gentle, and even his voice was softened, as if he was afraid of scaring Su Wan.
—Today’s situation was really too bloody, and he was afraid that Su Wan would have some psychological trauma.
Moreover, after hearing dozens of gunshots during the day, most girls would probably be unable to sleep at night.
Su Wan rested her forehead on Jiang Xuecheng's shoulder and blinked. Although she still couldn't see anything, her heart inexplicably calmed down.
In any case, she didn't want to make Jiang Xuecheng worry.
"Xuecheng, I'm fine."
Jiang Xuecheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and he ignored those who were still arguing with the high priest about how Fiennes should deal with it.
Jiang Xuecheng regarded Fiennes as an opponent, but he had no intention of humiliating him.
But at this juncture, especially since the CHK virus No. 3 implicated Su Wan's life, and the high priest was the only one who knew about it, Jiang Xuecheng would never offend her for this.
At the very least, we can't fall out with that crazy woman for now.
As for Fiennes's "advice" before his death, Jiang Xuecheng kept it in mind and would not trust the high priest at all.
…
Jiang Xuecheng's dark eyes flashed, and he stroked Su Wan's hair lovingly with a serious expression.
"Wanwan, let's go back."
Su Wan leaned her head on Jiang Xuecheng's shoulder and nodded gently.
"good."
So the two of them left the still shocking scene. They stood out from the crowd and no one dared to stop them.
Now that Fiennes is dead, the remaining matters will be much easier to deal with.
Jiang Xuecheng had already given instructions.
For example, Ye Hanwen, the head of the Defei family, is the main accomplice and is certainly not innocent.
Ye Hanwen had already realized that something was wrong and wanted to escape when the high priest appeared, but unfortunately he was "invited" back by the prepared guards.
But even so, the news of the high priest's appearance had already leaked out.
All families that had ever participated in Fiennes' plan were preparing to flee without exception.
Especially Mrs. Ye and her good-for-nothing son Ye Keller, who were staying at the Defei family headquarters today, had already thought of the worst-case scenario because they had not received any news for a long time!
So, escape became inevitable!
The only thing that Jiang Xuecheng and the high priest were careless about was that they didn't expect that Madam Ye was still in charge of the Defei family, while that absolute idiot Ye Keller ran away.
I have to say that this confusing method is still somewhat useful.
But the whole city is filled with people from the Divine Court. Even if Ye Keller wants to escape, where can he escape to
It's only a matter of time before he's caught.
This kind of small fry is not worth Jiang Xuecheng's attention.
…
An hour later, in a remote courtyard in the southern suburbs, Mingye also saw the shocking news on today's news.
Ming Ye saw Fiennes die and then Su Wan escape, and suddenly glanced at the girl who was still playing with the cat in the room.
Tia had no idea what was happening outside. At this moment, she was still feeding Miaomiao seriously.
The eighteen-year-old girl had a bright smile on her face, without a trace of gloom.
Mingye has never had any brothers or sisters, and does not understand what family love is like.
But when I thought of the pride that Tia could hardly conceal when she mentioned Fiennes, I suddenly didn't know how to talk to Tia.
