Chapter 1101: Chapter 863, Will There Be Any Sequelae? Chapter 1101: Chapter 863, Will There Be Any Sequelae? Xi Ligui was tying her clothes while also curiously looking over.
Becoming a hero was something the two inferred from celestial visions, whether it was actually the case, they couldn't be sure.
And the assassination of the Pope was notified to them by a call from the Island Lord's Mansion the previous night.
The ability to kill the Pope suggested a very high likelihood of being a hero.
Wu Heng coughed lightly, straightened his chest, “Indeed, I've become a hero, and the Pope is dead too.”
Even though they had guessed the answer.
The two still looked at each other incredulously.
A hero in his twenties.
Good heavens!
The man the sisters fancied on Gold and Silver Island had suddenly become a hero.
Especially Xi Ligui, she remembered around this time last year, they both were Vice-executives, secretly discussing how to capture Pirates to earn Merit.
Now, he had reached such heights.
Xi Ligui was also trying hard to catch up with him.
But now, it seemed she could never catch up again.
No matter, fortunately, he was her man.
Shi Yali then asked, “The Pope… the Pope's death, isn't it more dangerous now? The Holy Court will definitely not let it go.”
Xi Ligui countered, “It was that moment, if he didn't die, Wu Heng would have.”
“I don't mean that, I mean what should we do next?” Shi Yali glared at her sister.
Xi Ligui looked towards him again, waiting for an answer.
The Holy Court had a total of two heroes, and being the world's only orthodox religion, they definitely had more people at their disposal than Wu Heng.
Killing the Pope didn't end the affairs.
It might lead to even greater retaliation.
But as Xi Ligui said, either the Pope or Wu Heng had to die; it was an unavoidable matter.
Wu Heng revealed a smile, comforting, “Don't worry, the Lilith Leader arrived this morning, will clarify the matter with the association, we'll decide based on the situation.”
Lilith has arrived!
That was fast.
“So, did the association know about this beforehand?” Shi Yali curiously asked.
Wu Heng explained, “The Holy Court had the headquarters arrange someone to follow and investigate, the message was delayed, so Lilith came over in advance, the fleet should probably reach the harbor by this afternoon.”
“Oh, Lilith really treats Gold and Silver Island well,” Xi Ligui nodded.
Shi Yali continued to inquire, “Should your becoming a hero be made public? This has a significant impact on Gold and Silver Island, having a hero sitting in might alter some situations.”
Wu Heng took a sip from his water glass and then said, “Wait for the message from the headquarters first. I reckon this matter can't be hidden, sooner or later it will be known outside.”
“Waiting is also good, let's see what happens over time.” Xi Ligui nodded, then said, “Where is the Lilith Leader staying? Let's pay her a visit later.”
“It's still the place we prepared for her before, the new mansion isn't decorated yet,” Wu Heng said.
Shi Yali, not too interested in Lilith, pursued, “What does it feel like to become a hero?”
Wu Heng, smiling, said, “I've got endless energy.”
Shi Yali raised an eyebrow, her eyes gleamed, “Dinner at my place tonight?”
“Not today, I have to receive Lilith at the Island Lord's Mansion and discuss the upcoming matters, let's wait for a couple of days, then I'll come over directly,” Wu Heng thought and said.
The two women felt a bit disappointed, but there wasn't much they could do.
After all, the Lilith Leader just arrived, and they needed to host her.
“That's fine,” Shi Yali nodded in agreement.
Wu Heng continued to inquire, “What about Slyther? The Steward who came to Black Stone Town?”
Shi Yali said, “I checked, she left a note in her room, saying she was worried about Yuli's safety and left first, if you finish up here, let her know.”
Left!
That was normal, Slyther wouldn't likely let Yuli get involved in dangers.
She must have regretted bringing her along last night.
“Hmm, I'll let her know,” Wu Heng stated.
Then, the three continued discussing the development of Gold and Silver Island.
And some areas that needed change.
The prison murder also served as a wake-up call for them.
The enemies Wu Heng faced had already surpassed what the local association could handle, storming the prison to commit murder, even Xi Ligui couldn't stop them.
The main results of the discussion were two points.
Important places, protected by high-level Skeletons, important affairs, needing documents from both the Steward and city hall to execute.
The second point, any documents of Wu Heng left at the local association should be deleted as much as possible to avoid leaving any traces.
Now, having become a hero, to some extent, no longer subjected to the association's control.
He wouldn't be shuffled around, instead, he would be rooted in Gold and Silver Island.
As for the matters of the Holy Court, it depended on how headquarters would handle it.
After chatting in the room for a while and checking the time, they also stood up to leave.
As they were leaving, Shi Yali said, “Don't forget, come over for dinner when you have time.”
“Sure, I've missed you both,” Wu Heng responded.
Both women showed smiles.
Island Lord's Mansion.
“The master is back?”
Wu Heng entered the living room, and Mini came over to help him take off his coat.
“Hmm, Shanaela hasn't come back yet?”
Mini shook her head, “Not yet, when she comes back, I'll tell her to find you.”
Wu Heng said: “No need, the Lilith Leader is coming to our house for dinner tonight, prepare some good food, and also inform Shanaela.”
“Alright, master.”
Wu Heng nodded and walked upstairs.
He arrived at the radio room.
Wu Heng picked up the radio, “Slyther, can you hear me?”
Slyther's voice came through, “I can hear you!”
Before he finished, Yuli's shout came, “Wu Heng, are you alright, I'm going to help you, but my aunt won't let me.”
“You just reached level 9, are you going to get yourself killed?” Slyther said angrily.
Yuli stopped talking.
Wu Heng asked, “I'm fine here, the Lilith Leader has arrived.”
He didn't mention the Pope's death and his becoming a hero.
It could be announced later, no hurry to tell them right now.
“Did the Lilith Leader arrive?” Slyther was somewhat surprised.
Wu Heng and Lilith knew each other because Slyther made the connection.
“Hmm, where are you two now?” Wu Heng continued to ask.
If they had returned to Black Stone Town, judging by the time, they should be on the train and unable to use the radio to receive messages.
Slyther said, “Yuli and I are in Netalee City!”
Wu Heng asked, “Has everything gone smoothly on your journey?”
“It's been quite smooth,” Slyther said.
Yuli's shout came through from the other side, “I'm not okay, my butt hurts.”
Wu Heng asked, “Ah? Why does your butt hurt?”
“Go away,” Slyther said angrily and then added, “She's not listening, I had to hit her.”
Hearing Slyther's tone, Wu Heng didn't dare say much, “Just take some medicine and it'll be fine.”
Slyther continued, “Is The Holy Court going to come over?”
Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, “The headquarters will coordinate this matter. The possibility of a fight is not high, but it's also uncertain. By the way, have you finished the remodeling?”
“Not yet.”
“Then do you want to come over to continue the remodeling, or go back to Black Stone Town first?”
Slyther hesitated and then said, “Let's go to Gold and Silver Island, I'll also pay a visit to the Lilith Leader, and finish the remodeling while I'm at it.”
Wu Heng nodded, “Then I'll send the tickets over to you later.”
“Okay, but it will probably be tomorrow, we just woke up.”
“No rush.”
In the afternoon, the Association's fleet arrived.
Wu Heng did not make an appearance; Xi Ligui welcomed the Association members at the port with the fleet.
The several large ships of the Association docked at the port, still bringing a considerable sense of security.
As the members of the Association disembarked from the temporary port, passing through the port area that looked like ruins, they all exhibited shock.
A normal professional battle, even mage duels, should not have reached such an extent.
Besides surprise and finding it exaggerated, it also seemed somewhat amusing, the Association's flag-bearer and The Holy Court were fighting.
And it had escalated to this degree.
Leaving the port.
Xi Ligui led the people to the Association to arrange accommodations.
Dusk.
At the Island Lord's Mansion, Lilith was received.
Shanaela also accompanied her, being a responsible person for the island's commerce and a Wood Elf Elder, she also had the qualification to sit here.
After having dinner.
Xiao Xiao dragged a few people to play in the courtyard.
Wu Heng and Lilith sat in the living room chatting.
“Lilith Leader, how do you think the Association will handle this matter?”
Lilith glanced at him and said, “Hard to say, it also depends on Saidu's attitude, after all, a hero died, it's difficult to mediate this matter.”
Saidu is the Religious Leader.
Still dealing with Yeko Kingdom's matters.
The hero stationed at his old home has died.
“If he had not died then, it would have been me,” Wu Heng said seriously.
“I know, the headquarters won't be biased towards them, but some matters still depend on the final outcome,” Lilith took a sip from her teacup.
Wu Heng also showed a smile, “As long as it's handled fairly.”
“Let's see what happens.”
Wu Heng leaned forward, Lilith felt he was getting too close and glanced at him sideways.
“Leader, didn't you say, he and the Pope are one and the same? Could it be that with the Pope's death, there might also be some repercussions on Saidu's side?”
