Chapter 1399 1399: Heaven, Earth, Sun, Moon, Bishops!
"Now, let's begin!"Baili Qiurong said.
Young Master Bai He and dozens of Array Masters, following her instructions, began using the Array Pearl for an array formation here.
Bai was responsible for monitoring the surroundings, and if anyone noticed, he would forcefully use the Illusion Technique to deceive them...
At the same time.
He was also curious who had caught most people's attention, vaguely hearing people mention the name "Qin Feng" in their discussions...
...
Those from the Bright Holy Sect attending the Round Table Conference were staying at Glen Peninsula, only twenty miles from Mashan Peninsula.
The Bright Holy Sect, due to a lack of leadership this year, had been internally conflicted, leading to a severe decline in strength. Rumor has it they've fallen from the top five to second to Heavenly King Mountain.
Even so, they haven't dropped out of the nine top organizations, as their foundation is deep.
Forty people attended the Round Table Conference.
Joanna's uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, and some bishops from the sect, along with guards, etc.
Most attending the Round Table Conference were forty to fifty people.
Only the newly selected Heavenly King Palace came with one hundred thousand people.
Thus, it was ridiculed.
But now people's attention is focused on Qin Feng from Heavenly King Mountain.
Apart from Heavenly King Mountain, few from the Heavenly King Palace knew Qin Feng's true identity, still thinking he was merely the Hall Master, because those attending were top-tier globally, busy trying to escape Xumi Land, lacking the time or interest to inquire about Hua Country's affairs.
Qin Feng headed straight for the Bright Holy Sect, while people cursed him foolishly.
Apparently, he was after the Crystal Ball.
But this had offended the Hell Holy Sect and the Dragon King Hall Second Prince, clearly not a wise choice, relying solely on his Heavenly King Mountain status was insufficient for safety.
His act of cutting Lam to shreds quickly reached Glen Peninsula.
As soon as he and Joanna entered the estate Bright Holy Sect established on Glen Peninsula a decade ago, they were immediately intercepted!
Perhaps because Qin Feng was present, Joanna found courage and shouted at them: "Blocking the Sect Hierarch, are you rebelling?"
"Joanna!"
The returning uncle Berkeley, along with several other uncles, said to her, "Though you are the Sect Hierarch, your actions seriously threaten the Holy Sect's safety. Him treating Lam from the Hell Holy Sect viciously will surely bring retaliation from them, so we cannot let him enter!"
If they could drive Qin Feng away, handling a thirteen-year-old girl alone shouldn't be hard!
The other uncles agreed.
The internal competition was going well; how could they let an outsider intervene?
Moreover, if someone joined the family, Joanna wouldn't marry out, continuing as Sect Hierarch, leaving them without a chance!
Thus, Qin Feng must be driven away, and the contest expedited!
"Kid, you're aware of the current state of your Heavenly King Mountain; if you interfere in our matters again, you know the consequences!" Joanna's third uncle cast an ominous gaze at Qin Feng.
Qin Feng smiled and said, "Third Uncle, you've misunderstood. My interference isn't with your matters but rather our family's. I'm Joanna's fiancé now, so her matters are naturally mine."
He continued with a fierce gaze: "I've heard outside rumors about someone vying for her Sect Hierarch position, which is a heinous crime of insubordination, punishable by beheading. I'm here out of concern for you uncles, hoping those rumors aren't about you."
"Nonsense!!"
Fourth uncle was enraged, declaring, "If you insist on causing trouble, we have ample reason to deal with you!"
With a sinister expression, fifth uncle waved his hand, shouting, "Close the door!!"
The estate's gate was immediately shut.
The Bright Holy Sect members surrounded Qin Feng.
Qin Feng anticipated this, calmly scanning them, addressing uncle Berkeley, third uncle, fourth uncle, and fifth uncle: "Upon arriving, I learned about our Holy Sect's hierarchy. You uncles are second only to the Sect Hierarch, serving as the four great bishops of heaven, earth, sun, moon?"
The Sect Hierarch refers to the leader of the Bright Holy Sect.
Underneath are the four great bishops: heaven, earth, sun, moon!
Below them, numerous little bishops exist.
For instance, under heaven bishop uncle, are thirty-six little bishops, with the little bishops commanding relatively small forces.
Additionally, two thousand powerful Bright Knights directly under the Sect Hierarch's command lack any authority over others but cannot oversee anyone else.
This means.
Besides the Sect Hierarch, heaven, earth, sun, moon held the highest status!
"Correct!"
Uncle Berkeley nodded, saying, "Even if you're afraid, it's too late. We warned you, so..."
Qin Feng interrupted him, saying: "No need for 'so.' Just wait a moment."
He turned to Joanna, asking: "Do you trust me?"
"Yes!" Joanna nodded.
"Could you give me the Bright Church Order?" Qin Feng asked again.
"Of course." Joanna nodded again, then handed over a token to Qin Feng.
Seeing this, the uncles frowned, saying: "Joanna, are you mad?? Giving the Bright Church Order to an outsider!"
"No!"
Fifth uncle squinted, sneering, "It can't be Joanna's doing; it's evident Heavenly King Mountain's leader grabbed it. We must act due to this, even if God's Society holds us accountable; it's excusable, hehehe..."
"Indeed! He clearly snatched it!"
The other uncles chuckled gleefully.
Shaking his head in regret, Qin Feng said: "A pack of heartless beasts, tsk tsk!"
Then.
His gaze sharpened, releasing a powerful aura as he shouted: "The Bright Church Order is here, where are the Bright Knights?!!"
"Present!!"
One knight, clad in iron armor with a longsword at his waist, stepped forward and knelt.
"To whom does your loyalty belong?" Qin Feng asked.
"To the Sect Hierarch!" the knight replied.
After a solemn gaze confirming the knight's sincerity, Qin Feng instructed: "Good, protect the Sect Hierarch from now on! Escort the Sect Hierarch away first!"
"Yes!"
The knight stood, bowed to Joanna, and said, "Sect Hierarch, please follow me!"
Soon.
Joanna was escorted by a knight into a room.
Leaving only Qin Feng behind.
Uncle Berkeley couldn't help but laugh, saying: "You guessed right, the Bright Knight Order has always been loyal to the Bright Church Order. Not even we four could sway him. We thought you'd command him to protect you, but you merely protect Joanna, really amusing, having a sword without knowing how to use it."
