Chapter 1002: 460: Fu Lingxi Tragedy! The Death of Fang Qingyi!

Fu Lingxi’s breath hitched, a flash of fear darting through her gaze as her entire body succumbed to an icy cold.

But soon she fell silent, said nothing, and raised her hands to let the Sky Holy Knights shackle her.

Hadn’t she anticipated this scene all along?

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have sought out Suo Lun today and said those strange words.

Yet, when the moment truly arrived, Fu Lingxi still felt an overwhelming fear, a terror unleashed from the deepest reaches of her soul.

She belonged to the Dragon Temple, a transcendent entity above all, completely indifferent to the secular world’s power struggles.

She had thoroughly offended Suo Lun to death, but even if Suo Lun controlled the entire Rage Wave Kingdom, he could only take revenge on Marquis FuE, not her, Fu Lingxi.

Even if Suo Lun later became the Regent King, he would still be helpless against her, for she was of the Dragon Temple.

Yet, facing the power of the Dragon God Temple, Fu Lingxi had no room to resist.

The martial skills of Luo Ge and Ge Li were astonishing, to say the least.

But at the time of their capture, they dared not resist in the slightest. Not to mention that the captors were Sky Holy Knights – even if it were a powerless Magician from the Holy Temple, Luo Ge and Ge Li could only surrender without a fight.

For all their power came from the Dragon Temple.

No one can defy the collective will of the Sky God Sanctuary! The might of the Sky God Sanctuary was something only top figures like Luo Ge and Ge Li could comprehend.

Probably a few hours before, Fu Lingxi had learned that her name had shockingly appeared in Zhi Li’s testimony.

At that time, Fu Lingxi was astounded, knowing that she was merely ranked around the top thirty within the Zhen Du Divine Dragon Temple, no giant by any means.

Why would her name, Fu Lingxi’s, be among the mere handful of five names in Zhi Li’s confession?

This time, Zhi Li had separately named Ge Li, Luo Ge, Fang Qingyi, Fu Lingxi, and a Magician from the Holy Temple Laboratory.

But among these five people, the only one truly related to the blood of the demon was the laboratory’s Magician – he was the one who stole a sample of demon blood for Fang Qingshu and then passed it on to Zhi Li.

The remaining four were innocent, at least regarding this matter.

Zhi Li implicating Ge Li, Luo Ge, and Fang Qingyi could be excused – it was for the protection of the Rage Wave Kingdom.

But to implicate the relatively minor character Fu Lingxi had only one reason: for Suo Lun.

That’s right, Zhi Li was avenging Suo Lun, letting off steam on his behalf.

Suo Lun was once Zhi Li’s greatest enemy, but not the person he hated the most!

Once all ambitions were quashed and all proud aspirations turned to water, the Dragon Temple and Yin Zhou became the entities Zhi Li despised the most in his heart.

It was these two forces that transformed Zhi Li from human to ghost.

And Suo Lun, on the contrary, became someone who shared his cause.

Zhi Li’s implication of Fu Lingxi was an act of avenging Suo Lun – an air of reconciliation, entrusting him to protect and care for his family and the entire Rage Wave Kingdom.

In this affair, Fu Lingxi was truly collateral damage, a gift from Zhi Li to Suo Lun.

A complete tragedy!

...

With the capture of Holy Priest Ge Li, Chief Judge Luo Ge, and Judge Fu Lingxi, the entire Zhi Du Sanctuary plunged into immense chaos, as if the sky had fallen.

Most people from Zhi Du Sanctuary had never left the Rage Wave Kingdom in their lifetime, had never visited the Yanjing Holy Temple, let alone the Sky Holy Palace.

For them, the Zhi Du Sanctuary was their whole world.

Luo Ge and Ge Li were their heavens!

Everyone in Zhi Du Sanctuary believed that even if the Rage Wave Kingdom was destroyed, the Zhi Du Sanctuary would remain intact, with Luo Ge and Ge Li, the supreme figures, standing unshaken.

Yet now, these paragons were captured.

The sky had truly fallen, everyone in despair, living as if the end of the world had come.

Moreover, it was clear that capturing these three individuals was just the beginning.

Next, the inspectors from the Yanjing Holy Temple would enter Zhi Du Sanctuary, and that was when the real purge would start.

Uprooting a tree would bring its roots along; at that time, who knew how many Judges, how many priests, and how many monks would suffer.

According to past cases, the downfall of one Holy Priest would generally lead to the arrest of thousands, if not tens of thousands – and half of those would be burned alive.

This was the unspoken rule of the Dragon Temple: the fall of a Holy Priest must be accompanied by the burial of at least three thousand others.

How many Holy Priests were there in the entire Human World? Barely over twenty!

This time, with the Chief Judge and Holy Priest falling together, how many in Zhi Du Sanctuary would perish? Only heaven knew!

Undoubtedly, all who were close to the two supreme figures could not escape.

Moreover, this was a colossal case stirred up by the highest Holy Maiden of the Sky Holy Palace, backed by the world dominator, Flame Empire, and at least three Sky Priests.

By then, perhaps half of the high-ranking members of Zhi Du Sanctuary would face annihilation.

A true great purge, a disaster!

...

Ge Li, Luo Ge, Fu Lingxi arrested!

Zhi Li is dead!

Half an hour later, Suo Lun officially received the news.

Then, he was dumbfounded for quite some minutes!

Although Suo Lun had once harbored extravagant hopes and dreams, when the result truly came, he was utterly shocked!

He was astounded as if struck by a bolt from the blue!

Ji Xiuning is truly remarkable, so remarkable!
