The man-made thunderstorm only lasted for more than an hour, but the temperature was very high, and the cool breeze provided a refreshing feeling, and the previous heat and boredom were gone at all. wWW!QuanBeN-XiaoShuo!COm
At this time, Cang Yue City is already crowded with people, all of whom are waiting to pay homage to their beloved angel of light, the Pope of Light, Charles, who stands at the top of the Canglan Continent.
Suddenly, a deep and distant bell rang, and a gorgeous eight-horse imperial carriage appeared on the sloping stone road of the palace. This dragon carriage was left behind by the first founding emperor of the Nalan Empire. It has remained intact after thousands of years. It is so solid and its color remains unchanged that it has become the royal car of every new emperor of the Nalan Empire. It is more than eight meters high, ten meters long and five meters wide. Several long silk curtains stand on the left and right sides, dancing lightly in the wind. , and the carts are pulled by eight divine unicorn horses. Each of them has strong limbs, graceful body, and smooth fur like silk, without a trace of stray hair. People can't help but feel a sense of wonder when they look at it. A sense of shock.
Two rows of elite royal cavalry accompanied them to clear the way, majestic and inviolable, while Nalan Ruyue was sitting on it wearing a queen's robe, looking down at the many people kneeling and saluting along the way, majestic and It is solemn and solemn, and the emperor's style is clearly revealed.
Long Yi held the little Loli and flew in the sky, nodding secretly in his heart, Nalan Ruyue really did not disappoint him.
Long Chu marched very fast and arrived at the North City Gate in a short time. Those sanctimonious priests only gave a slight salute to Nalan Ruyue, although at this time Nalan Ruyue was not only a saint of the Church of Light, but also a saint. A generation of queens were born, but priests are a noble profession. Except for the pope who must kneel when he sees the light, all others have to bend down and salute. One can imagine how much power the church has in this era.
Long Yi floated down from the air with the little Loli. The body is as light as a swallow, elegant and natural.
"Young Master Ximen, during this period of time, you have been like a dragon, but not its tail." Saint Kailin saw Long Yi arriving. He smiled and said hello.
"What? Are you thinking about Holy Priest Kailin so much?" Long Yi joked in a nonchalant manner, seemingly unable to feel the sharp eyes of the priests and the sudden tense atmosphere. I'm afraid that as long as Holy Priest Kailin changes his face, It's going to be a group fight.
"Young Master Ximen is right. I have been worried about you recently. I think His Majesty the Pope is even more concerned about you than me. After the coronation ceremony, His Majesty the Pope will have to have a long talk with Young Master Ximen." Kailin smiled but did not get angry. Instead, his words were not surprising, and his words made everyone secretly speculate about the relationship between Long Yi and Pope Charles.
"That's right. I have been a close friend of His Majesty the Pope for a long time. I only had a brief glance at Yue'er's wedding that day. It's a pity that I have to ask him for advice this time." Long Yi said with a smile. He said it politely, but his expression and tone seemed to be completely opposite.
Kailin and Long Yi looked at each other and smiled. I don’t know if it’s a tacit understanding or if they all have ulterior motives.
At this moment, thousands of rays of rays of light suddenly fell from the sky, and a peaceful breath came like a tide, making people feel like spring and felt extremely comfortable.
A milky white light suddenly appeared on the twilight, and a figure loomed out of the light. But it appeared in the sky above the north gate of Cang Yue City in an instant. Still wearing the same pretense. A colorful halo of light was printed behind him, and even two wing-like things suddenly took shape. A thick aura of light filled the entire Cang Yue City.
"His Majesty the Pope..." Before the priests could salute, a long line of people watching behind the city gate knelt down. They all worshiped and prayed towards Charles with pious faces, thinking in their hearts that they would be able to see the Pope in this life. , really die without regrets.
At this time, Holy Priest Kailin took the lead in paying homage to Charles, and Nalan Ruyue, who was about to be crowned, was no exception. Moreover, she was a saint of the church, so she had long been accustomed to such etiquette.
On the other hand, Long stood upright with his head held high, looking at Charles in the sky with an inexplicable smile. Now that the old guy wanted something from him, he simply didn't even need to pretend.
Charles' expression of compassion did not change. He stayed on Long Yi for a moment, and a hint of enthusiasm in his eyes disappeared. As long as Long Yi could unravel the mystery of the Divine Card of Light and let him inherit the divine status, he could endure Long Yi. Any rude behavior and agree to any request.
"Everyone, get up. The great God of Light will protect his believers, drive away all evil, and make the good people immortal." Pope Charles said in his seductive low voice. He waved his hands and sprinkled thousands of white lights. After entering the body, everyone felt that their bones were lighter by three ounces, and the pores all over the body were relaxed. Their hearts were even more pious, and they eagerly called out the slogan of the Church of Light.
"Brother-in-law, why does the Pope have wings behind him?" Little Loli, under the influence of Long Yidi, did not treat the Bright Pope Charles as if he were seeing a god like others, but asked curiously.
"That's a fake place, so can my brother-in-law." Long Yi said with a smile.
"That
Isn't he a big liar? I thought he was a little scary just now, but I just felt it. " Nalan Rumeng innocently bit the root of Long Yi's ear. Her senses were not insensitive. She actually caught the bright Pope's well-hidden enthusiasm.
"He is the biggest liar in the world, using the name of the God of Light to cheat. Look at all these people being kept in the dark by him." Long Yi chuckled.
"Then my sister was also deceived by him. Why didn't my brother-in-law tell my sister?" Nalan Rumeng said angrily.
"Your sister... she actually already knows, and now she is deliberately pretending to be deceived. You can't tell anyone about this matter. Your sister won't let her brother-in-law tell anyone." Long Yi said like coaxing a child. In fact, he now also It's not sure what Nalan Ruyue will choose if he really breaks up with the Pope. The power of religious brainwashing is sometimes terrifying. What he is doing now is to use subtle influence to liberate Nalan Ruyue's mind that is bound by dogma.
The coronation ceremony was naturally held in the Guangming Cathedral in Cang Yue City. All the noble ministers attended and countless people witnessed it.
—
First, the Pope of Light read out the same church articles according to the script, praising the great God of Light, and of course, indirectly praising himself.
What followed was a series of cumbersome rituals, one after another, which made Long Yi feel sleepy. However, Nalan Ruyue did not show any signs of it. She performed them one by one dignifiedly and piously, not daring to be careless at all.
"Brother-in-law, it's so boring." Nalan Rumeng complained softly as she huddled in Long Yi's arms.
"It just so happens that brother-in-law is also bored. Brother-in-law, I will take you out for some fresh air." Long Yi said softly and took Nalan Rumeng's little hand. Mingyue stood up and left boldly in front of everyone, ignoring the row of bright warriors blocking her way. Entered the side hall.
However, since the Pope of Light did not say anything, how could anyone else dare to stop Long Yi? In addition, the previous conversation between Long Yi and the holy priest Kailin made it difficult for people to guess the relationship between Long Yi and the Pope of Light, but they also knew that Long Yi He has a close relationship with the Pope of Light.
"Brother-in-law, you are so awesome. The Pope is really a big liar. He didn't even dare to say a word when he saw you coming out, brother-in-law." Nalan Rumeng admired him.
"That is, in front of my brother-in-law, no matter how arrogant the guy is, he is just a paper tiger. I say one thing to my brother-in-law, but they dare not say another thing." Long Yi boasted proudly. Anyway, you don't have to pay taxes when you brag.
After passing through the long corridor of the Guangming Cathedral, Long Yi came to a small courtyard. Looking up, he saw the huge statue of the God of Light on the top of the Guangming Cathedral, with its eight wings spread majestically, which was quite imposing.
Long Yi remembered his disdain when he first saw the statue of the God of Light in the cathedral of Guangming City, the largest city in the northern part of the Mad Dragon Empire. Now, many years later, he had a different feeling. He didn't believe in the existence of God before, but now he does. The Church of Light, the organization where the God of Light spreads his faith in Canglan Continent, has deteriorated. But he thought that maybe the original intention of the God of Light was not that. Maybe he really just wants to spread the belief of being good to others. , but in the changing times, it has been turned into a tool to control the entire world by some ambitious people in power.
The God of Darkness is currently in the dark space of the Lost City. The God of Thunder has disappeared into ashes, so where is the God of Light? Where are the other gods? What happened in the God Realm? These are all questions that Long Yi cannot figure out despite racking his brains. Sometimes I feel that I am close to the truth, but in the end I find that it is still full of fog.
"Rumeng, the weather is just right now, why don't we go up and get some fresh air?" Long Yixiao asked Nalan Rumeng.
"Okay, okay, the wings of the God of Light are so big, why don't we ride on them." Nalan Rumeng really dared to say that, and she was not afraid that the people kneeling below would drown her with saliva.
But there is nothing in the world that Long Yi dares not to do. After being inhabited by the God of Darkness in his body for several years, isn't there nothing wrong with him? He is afraid of a statue of the God of Light.
"No problem, today we will ride on the God of Light." Long Yi chuckled and hugged Nalan Rumeng's small waist, which swept up like a wisp of smoke and appeared on the huge wings of the statue of the God of Light in the blink of an eye. superior.
At this time, the square of Guangming Cathedral was filled with people kneeling on their knees. Everyone was chanting something, and no one looked up at all.
"It's so cool. It's so cool to ride on the God of Light." Long Yi laughed.
"But brother-in-law, I want to pee now." Nalan Rumeng said to Long Yi with a slightly red face.
Uh... Long Yi was startled, then suddenly smiled evilly and said, "Girl, why don't you just pee on the back of the statue of the God of Light? Brother-in-law will set up a barrier so that no one will see it."
