Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 157 Return
"How to cure it?"
Xu Shen thought of Mo Qinghao. Is it the ability of the reconstruction system?
The woman first used the key to open the forbidden ring on Xu Shen's foot. In an instant, the power of Xu Shen surged and circulated throughout his body. The slight pain all over his body was immediately suppressed by the power of Xu Shen.
And Xu Shen's perception was also growing and recovering rapidly. He could feel that there were extremely strong fluctuations of Xu force in the body of the woman in front of him, which was also the second form.
As for the old man next to him, there was no fluctuation in his body, as deep as darkness, which made Xu Shen feel a bone-chilling chill.
"Please be patient."
The woman spoke again, her tone quite polite.
Then she placed her hands on Xu Shen's shoulders, and Xu Shen immediately felt waves of spiritual power invading him. The flesh on the surface of his body began to slowly wriggle under the stimulation of the spiritual power.
Then, Xu Shen saw blood seeping out of the flesh and blood vessels becoming tangled.
As the blood seeped in, Xu Shen did not feel much pain. Instead, he felt a tingling sensation, as if the pain was suppressed.
As the power of the world was woven, the blood gradually stopped, and new snow-white and tender skin gradually emerged from the flesh and blood.
This process was relatively slow and lasted for half an hour.
Xu Shen felt like he was wearing a thick layer of clothing, isolating himself from the cold feeling of close contact with the air. He looked at his hands and feet, and the new skin was extremely white.
“This is your shell.”
The old man in a snow-white robe handed Xu Shen a small box, which contained several weapons that were taken away from Xu Shen's body.
Mask, gloves, black blood...
All there.
Xu Shen's eyes moved slightly, and he reached out to take them all back, absorbing them into his body.
"The previous incident is just a misunderstanding. You can leave now." The old man said coldly, "You have no chance to enjoy the blessing of our Lord. Take care of yourself in the future!"
Misunderstanding...Xu Shen's eyes flickered slightly. It was indeed a misunderstanding, but he had misunderstood this world.
Misunderstood the light chasing meeting.
I also misunderstood the solemnity of the scene before my eyes.
His eyes could see the black vortices on other lives, but Xu Shen forgot to examine himself.
Accompanied by an old man and a woman in a snow-white robe, Xu Shen put on a soft and comfortable believer's robe, followed them through the aisle, and left the dark cell.
The people on both sides of the aisle were all staring at Xu Shen's back, and some were reluctant to let him go: "My child is leaving again."
Some even laughed strangely: "There are more delicious foods outside."
"Will he come back?" Youxu asked the old man, and said tenderly: "I really want to eat him."
The old man looked indifferent and expressionless.
Walking down the stairs to the outside, Xu Shen saw the dazzling light outside the window through the hall.
But there is a window blocking the view, and you can adapt by squinting your eyes slightly.
"She will send you out." The old man in the snow-white robe looked at Xu Shen indifferently, his eyes without mercy: "After leaving here, remember to be careful with your words. No one will believe you if you tell others some things, and it will not do you any good to tell others. Your Jiang family may not be so clean. Don't say things that you shouldn't say. Remember?"
Xu Shen stared at him and nodded slightly.
"Let's go."
The old man in the snow-white robe turned around.
The woman next to her gestured "please".
Xu Shen was silent for a moment, then followed the woman out of here. The sunlight shone down on him, and his whole body was warm.
Walking past the church in front, I saw a luxury car parked at the door.
The woman took Xu Shen into the car and started the engine without any communication between the two.
As the vehicle drove away, Xu Shen looked at the church gate behind him, which was getting farther and farther away, but the spire on the church was becoming clearer and clearer.
The eight days of imprisonment was like a nightmare.
Now the dream is over.
It's like liberation.
But some things have taken root deep in the soul and cannot be erased.
Xu Shen stared at the huge monster that was gradually moving away, then slowly withdrew his gaze.
…
…
Inside the church.
After the old man in the snow-white robe sent Xu Shen away, he turned and came to a tall building that looked like an ancient castle behind the church.
On a certain floor of a tall building, there stood a figure.
The figure was dressed in an elegant robe, woven with golden lines and dazzling silver threads. The robe flowed down, revealing unparalleled dignity and power.
The old man in a snow-white robe came up to the man and bowed slightly: "Your Holiness."
The person in front of him was the Pope of the Moonlight Religion.
Only the old man understood how prominent this person's status was in the inner city.
"Has the person been released?" the tall and strong Pope asked softly.
"Just left."
The old man in the snow-white robe raised his head and glanced at the Pope, with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "Your Excellency the Pope, the Jiang family is now in decline. Who can work so hard for the Jiang family that you, the Pope, can personally come forward and guarantee such a small person."
"I was also entrusted by someone, and it's just a favor from my early years. Now that this matter has passed, let's just leave it at that." The Pope said softly.
The old man naturally understood that with the Pope’s personal intervention, the matter had come to an end.
But, who is the big shot in the inner city who can invite the Pope?
…
…
The vehicle drove out of the inner city and passed through the dark passage.
Xu Shen took a look, his eyes flickered slightly, and an idea emerged in his mind.
One day, he would step into the inner city again.
But he won't be a prisoner like this time.
"arrive."
The woman in the driver's seat parked the car outside the passage. She looked cold and indifferent. She was not as gentle as she was to Xu Shen in front of the bishop. There was a hint of disgust and impatience between her brows.
The care and patience he had shown when treating Xu Shen seemed to have been done only for the bishop's sake.
She didn't know who Xu Shen was, but the latter was just from Dicheng, which was enough to make people look down on him.
Xu Shen glanced at her, then stood up and got out of the car.
After he got out of the car, the woman immediately started the car and returned to the inner city.
Xu Shen stayed there for a while, then walked along the street. Not long after, he saw a taxi waiting on the side of the road, so he hailed one and told the place name.
Not long after getting on the bus, Xu Shen suddenly heard the voice of No. 1 in his mind, calling him.
Xu Shen's eyes flashed and he looked around the vehicle. Except for Maeve, there were passers-by from the city, and there was no strange person following them.
His mind immediately floated and he entered into a mysterious spiritual world.
No. 1 saw him online and immediately started a private chat with him.
"How is it, have your men gone back?" asked No. 1.
"I've returned." Xu Shen said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"No problem." No. 1 smiled and said, "The situation in the inner city is complicated now. I heard that you want to help the Jiang family, but I advise you not to get involved. It's hard for you to help alone."
Xu Shen understood the meaning of his words, implying that the favor had been repaid and that No. 1 would not intervene in the Jiang family's affairs.
"It's okay, I'll do my best." Xu Shen said.
Although he knew he could not be of much help, he was not sure about No. 1's identity in the inner city. With his current ability, he was unable to investigate further. He could only speak carefully. If the other party was also a force that could crush the Jiang family, his words might have some deterrent effect.
This is the greatest thing he can do for the Jiang family at the moment.
"Okay." Seeing that Xu Shen was determined, No. 1 did not try to persuade him much. People of their status usually have their minds unshakable.
The two didn't say much, just said goodbye briefly and went offline.
Xu Shen's consciousness also returned to the taxi. If he was attacked in reality, he would be able to sense it even though his consciousness was in the spiritual space, but his perception would not be that sharp.
Fortunately, taxis are safe. Even if the driver has bad intentions, he is just an ordinary person and he can react.
Not long after, the taxi stopped in the suburbs.
Xu Shen got out of the car and saw the driver's gaze. He felt his pockets but found no money.
"Wait for me, I'll go get the money for you." Xu Shen said.
The driver looked around. The shabby streets in the suburbs made him look gloomy. He said unkindly, "Do you think I'm stupid? Wait a minute, three or five people will jump out and surround me. Then I'll pay you."
Xu Shen looked at him strangely and said, "So what you mean is that if three or five people surround you, you can accept the fact that you can't get the money?"
"Nonsense, don't try to be cunning with me. You look so weird and clean, but you can't pay. Who would believe it?" The driver pushed the door and got out of the car. He took out a dagger from his pocket and said with a sinister expression: "Don't play tricks on me!"
Apparently, there are many disorderly people in Dicheng, and the driver has already mastered the method of dealing with lawbreakers, which is to enforce the law himself.
Xu Shen took a look, reached out and grabbed the knife, broke it with two fingers in front of the driver's eyes, and then put it back into the driver's hand as easily as paying, and then turned and left.
There was no more sound behind me.
Leaving the street, Xu Shen's figure passed an alley and disappeared into the ruins.
Then they came to a hotel and saw that the kitchen of the hotel was dirty and messy, with rats sneaking under the table. The fat chef picked his nose and flicked the booger into the pot, then scooped up a spoonful to taste the soup.
Xu Shen walked through the kitchen and took a stack of receipts from under the desk at the hotel front desk.
Then Xu Shen appeared in the corner next to the hotel and walked into the hotel from the side.
This is the suburbs, Xu Shen has already explored it and there is no surveillance around.
Even if there is, it is just a broken decoration.
"Welcome." The hotel owner immediately .
Xu Shen handed over the receipt he had just received and rented a room.
He was not in a hurry to return to the Light Chasing Club and the Secret Bureau. Instead, he was now in an invisible identity.
Soon, they moved into the booked room. Xu Shen thought for a moment, called out the anchor point, and took out the communicator from the Xu Secret Bureau.
As for the Light Chasing Club's communicator, it was previously installed in the combat uniform and was taken away.
Although the soldiers were returned, most of the combat uniforms were thrown away and not returned to him.
Xu Shen held the communicator and fell into thought.
After a moment, he dialed a number.
"Hello."
"Hmm? Is that you?"
A light female voice came from the other end of the communication, with a slightly surprised tone, as if she didn't expect Xu Shen to contact her on his own initiative.
