panicked expression on her face, instead she seemed very excited. This gave Zhong Guoqiang a bad feeling.But seeing four strong bodyguards, my heart immediately felt much more at ease."How about a li...As soon as Adams uttered these words, everyone in the divine court was taken aback. Many of them knew about Ferguson's death, but they never expected it to be connected to this young man before them.

Helena quickly exclaimed, "It's impossible, the Archbishop's death has nothing to do with Brother Ye."

Adams said sternly, "Stand down. You have no part in this."

Helena immediately pouted in displeasure, about to say something, but Ye Bufan stopped her with a wave of his hand.

Then he looked at Adams with a slight smile: "It seems the Emperor is quite certain I killed him"

To be honest, I had a little doubt before, but after the investigation into Casillas, I dismissed that idea.

But just now, I changed my mind again. You can kill even a vampire queen, and besides, it's the Red Cardinal. That means you have the ability to quietly kill Ferguson.

And throughout the entire Western world, only you are capable of doing this.

Ye Bufan's expression remained calm: "You're convicting someone based on mere speculation, which seems inappropriate."

Adam said, "Yes, these are just speculations, but there is one substantive thing you can't hide. When you just killed Valentina, you used the holy power of our temple. How do you explain that"

The holy power of Angel Mountain suddenly vanished, the trial of the Saintess abruptly ended. Could all this be related to you

"This…"

Ye Bufan couldn't help but frown slightly. If he hadn't used his holy power just now, he wouldn't have been able to kill Valentina at all. And once this thing is used, it's impossible to deny it. Looking at the world, only the Divine Court could use holy power.

But that's nothing. He hid before because he didn't want to cause trouble for himself, and now that trouble has come looking for him, there's no need to hide anymore.

"You're right, I did kill Ferguson."

Ye Bufan's words sent a wave of shock through the entire audience.

To think that was the Divine Court's First Red Robe Archbishop, especially in the place of Angel Mountain, he practically had the strength of a Royal Realm. Yet, this young man killed him, and it looked like he wasn't even trying hard. Could it be that the other party has reached such a level of power

Helena, Sophie and others were even more shocked. They never expected that it was Ye Bufan who had done it.

Casillas was the most affected, especially since he had personally investigated the matter that day and ultimately cleared the suspect. Little did he know, it turned out to be a misjudgment on his part.

Adam said coldly, "You dare to kill even the red-robed cardinal of our Divine Court. Don't you fear the punishment of the Lord God"

Ye Bufan smiled and shook his head, completely unfazed by the expressions of others.

"I am who I am. If anyone wants to kill me, I will kill them in return. Don't think for a moment that it matters that he's just a cardinal, even your god himself would be no different."

"Rampant, you killed our Sacred Court's red-robed cardinal and dared to disrespect your master! Today, you must die!"

Adam's words were filled with murderous intent.

"I did kill Ferguson, but he deserved it," Ye Bufan said. "That old man was constantly scheming to steal the formula from me and kill me to silence me. A person like that naturally deserves to be killed by me."

“Nonsense, Bishop Ferguson is a man of great standing, he would never do such a thing. You're just making excuses for yourself.”

Adam said grimly, "No matter what, you have killed a high priest of my divine court. You will face the punishment of the Lord God."

"Ye Bufan said indifferently: 'I've made it clear. Believe it or not is up to you.'"

"My Lord Emperor, you must believe in Big Brother Ye."

After the shock, Helena quickly stepped forward to plead for Ye Bufan, "Although Ye Big Brother killed Ferguson, it was justifiable. "

"...and he also helped me and Sophie become Cardinal-Bishops. That could balance the scales..."

Well then, considering you slew Valentina and have served our Pantheon well.

"I'll give you one chance."

Adams' expression softened somewhat. He looked at Ye Bufan and said, "Submit to my divine court now, swear your allegiance, and hand over the secrets of the holy light."

"Not only can I let bygones be bygones, but I can also promise Helena to you."

Helena immediately looked at Ye Bufan with eager anticipation, hoping he would agree right away.

The rest of the people in the Divine Court also looked over, and in their eyes, this was simply a great opportunity. The young man before them had absolutely no reason to refuse.

Especially those in the know, like Casillas, though Helena's identity hasn't been revealed yet, she's the princess of the Divine Court, Adamas' daughter.

To marry Helen was to achieve instant success, becoming the son-in-law of the divine court.

And the Blood Clan members immediately tensed up, fully realizing the formidable power of this young man at this moment.

The most crucial point is that Situ Dianmo always follows him implicitly. If he submits to the Divine Court, our fate would be easily imaginable.

At this moment, the eyes of both the Blood Clan and the Divine Court were fixed on Ye Bufan. Unexpectedly, he shook his head directly.

"I am a citizen of the Xia Dynasty, I don't believe in your so-called gods, and I don't want to join the Divine Court."

"This..."

Everyone was astonished, none expected the young man to refuse such an opportunity that countless people had longed for.

Adam also frowned, apparently somewhat surprised by the result.

He went on to say, “You can choose not to join, as long as you hand over the secrets of sacred power, my previous terms still stand.”

Ye Bufan chuckled softly. "I'm afraid this is your true purpose, isn't it"

The divine court had relied on holy power for so many years but was unable to store it. The current Emperor seeing himself able to store the holy power of Angel Mountain within his body, and use it flexibly, wouldn't be greedy even if he wanted to.

Adam's expression changed slightly. This was indeed what he had in mind. When he saw Ye Bufan use his holy power to kill Valentina just now, an irresistible desire arose in his heart to figure out everything that happened.

Since the purpose had been exposed, he no longer concealed it, and openly declared, "As God's chosen one, it is my duty to clarify matters of divine power."

Ye Bufan's face broke into a playful smirk. “That sounds good, but if you’re God’s chosen people, why don't you just ask God directly Why bother asking me”

After being rejected one after another, Adam's expression instantly turned cold.

"Ye Bufan, do you know what you're doing If you persist in this folly, you can only accept the punishment of the gods."

"If you want to punish me, you'd better have the ability to do so."

Although the opponent was a royal realm expert, Ye Bufan had his own trump cards and showed no fear in his expression.

"If that's the case, then accept your punishment."

Adams was furious. In his view, if he didn't give the other party a taste of their own medicine, he wouldn't be able to achieve his goal at all.

He shoved Helena aside who was trying to stop him, and launched his attack.

"Great Prophecy, Confinement!"

After reaching this level of cultivation, he had attained the state where a single thought could form an array. He no longer needed incantations; after a mighty roar, holy light descended from the heavens, transforming into a beam of light that enveloped Ye Bufan.y climb the ladder and ascend to the Dragon King's Hall."Hey handsome, be careful on that ladder. It's pretty steep."Before I received the inheritance of the Dragon Queen's Palace, I also tried coming...
