Chapter 1956: Contacting the Netherworld King

After the two members of the Bright Church left, Xiao Zheng’s eyes were filled with suspicion.

It was evident that the information leaked from their conversation left him extremely shocked.

Apart from the Blood Clan’s involvement, the most unbelievable thing to Xiao Zheng was that Eddy and Joseph intended to take Allen Burbank back to the Church and even openly spread this news.

All of this hinted at a touch of conspiracy.

For normally, when carrying out a protective mission, the entire journey should be kept top secret. However, Eddy and Joseph, these two archbishops, did the opposite. Not only did they not keep the journey confidential, but they also made it public knowledge.

Claiming that there’s no conspiracy in this would be hard for anyone to believe.

Xiao Zheng was no exception.

"It seems they want to use Allen Burbank, the Saint Heir, as bait to lure me out," Xiao Zheng quickly realized the crux of the matter and couldn’t help but sneer, "And they’re only escorting Allen Burbank back to the Church, while ignoring the other Saint Heirs. It’s very likely they’ve already learned about my search for the Golden Bone."

"Seems like the people of the Bright Church are not as stupid as I imagined."

"But what kind of trap have they set for me? Eddy and Joseph alone are far from enough to stop me..."

Xiao Zheng rhythmically tapped his fingers on the table, clearly lost in thought.

But soon he ended his contemplation and decided to actively enter their trap.

Because just as the Pope once told Eddy, as long as Xiao Zheng had designs on the Golden Bone, he would definitely take the bait. This was an open strategy, forcing Xiao Zheng to take the bait!

"Since you want to play, I’ll play along with you."

"Only, I wonder, between us, who will have the last laugh."

Xiao Zheng’s lips curled into a smile, and an endless fighting spirit suddenly surged within him.

He felt his whole body boiling with excitement and a desperate desire for battle!

After hastily finishing his meal, Xiao Zheng immediately chose to set off. Because Eddy and Joseph did not keep the route secret, he only had to casually inquire to find out the escort route.

Xiao Zheng decided to act at a place called Filo River.

This spot was a necessary path for Eddy and his group’s return to the Church, with mountains and water and countless obstacles. Even if the Bright Church had set traps waiting for him, he could always use these natural barriers to escape.

After choosing the location, Xiao Zheng set out.

Meanwhile, news from Europe also reached Huaxia.

Long Qie, upon learning that Eddy and Joseph would escort Allen Burbank back to the Holy Land of the Church, immediately made the same judgment as Xiao Zheng. They all realized this was a trap set by the Bright Church targeting Xiao Zheng.

If Xiao Zheng fell into the trap, he could very well be in danger.

Thinking of this, Long Qie and the others were extremely anxious.

"We can’t wait any longer, we must hurry to Europe now," Titan said in a deep voice, "Mr. Xiao is in danger alone in Europe, we must go there to help him."

Hearing this, Evil Eyes frowned and said, "I think we should calm down now. Because even if all our people head over, we might not be able to help much."

"The urgent matter right now is to find Mr. Xiao first."

Long Qie sighed and said, "I’ve been trying to call him, but I can’t get through. If I could get in touch with him, I wouldn’t be so worried."

"The Bright Church’s escort operation is clearly a trap," Titan said, "If Mr. Xiao goes, he will definitely be in danger!"

"You just said that," Evil Eyes frowned, "Do you think we’re unaware of the dangers? But what’s the point of being anxious? Can it help Mr. Xiao?"

"Then what do you suggest we do?" Titan glared, somewhat dissatisfied, "I say go to Europe, and you won’t let me. If I analyze and suggest here, you tell me to shut up. So tell me, what do we do next?"

Evil Eyes shot him a cold glance, then said, "I’ve already said, the immediate priority is to find Mr. Xiao and stop him. Other than that, I really can’t think of any better methods."

"Isn’t that just stating the obvious? If we could find Mr. Xiao, we wouldn’t be sitting here worrying," Titan said dissatisfied.

Hearing their argument, Long Qie’s head almost felt like it was going to explode: "Both of you, be quiet. I’ve already sent Catherine to look for Mr. Xiao’s whereabouts. We should have news soon."

"As for how to help, Evil Eyes is not wrong. With our current strength going to Europe, it’s no different than walking to our deaths. If the Bright Church captures us, we won’t be able to help Mr. Xiao and will cause him more trouble instead."

"So according to what you’re saying, we can only sit here and stare at each other?" Titan, unable to contain his anger, punched the coffee table, turning the expensively crafted solid wood table into powder.

Long Qie and Evil Eyes understood his agitation, as they too were anxious at heart.

After a moment of silence, Evil Eyes suddenly brightened up and said, "I thought of someone. We might not be able to help Mr. Xiao, but she definitely can!"

"Who is it?" Titan eagerly asked.

Hearing this, Evil Eyes took a deep breath, then slowly said, "This person is Hades, the Netherworld King!"

At the mention of this name, the expressions on Long Qie and Titan’s faces were ever-changing.

After a moment of thought, Long Qie hesitantly said, "The strength of Hades is exceptional and can indeed assist Mr. Xiao. But after all, she is the ruler of the Blood Clan. If she intervenes, wouldn’t that drag the Blood Clan into this incident as well?"

"Wouldn’t that be quite unprincipled of us?"

Evil Eyes sighed and said, "What we’re doing is indeed not principled. But other than this, can you think of any other solutions?"

Long Qie fell silent and finally couldn’t help but sigh.

"In that case, I’ll get in touch with the Netherworld King."

"I remember in Sky Net, there’s a record of her contact information, I’ll go check..."

After saying that, Long Qie got up and left.

Evil Eyes and Titan sat in his office, starting their anxious wait.

About two or three minutes later, Long Qie returned to the office.

Seeing him return, Evil Eyes and Titan stood up simultaneously and asked, "How did it go? Did the Netherworld King agree?"

Hearing this, Long Qie nodded heavily.

Upon receiving the desired answer, the hearts of Evil Eyes and Titan finally settled down!
