A 30-centimeter high-speed anti-ship rocket projectile, with a dull whistling sound, instantly reached three times the speed of sound. The valley was swept by strong winds, and everyone's body was shaken by the air waves generated when the rocket was launched. Almost as soon as it was launched, the rocket flew out of the valley.

  A gentle voice suddenly sounded: "God is love for the world, so all evil cannot harm the world."

  A burst of white light poured down from the sky, and a circular shield condensed from the white light appeared in the midst of it. The rocket shell hit the shield, and a fireball exploded into the air, accompanied by a deafening roar that sent rocks flying as the cliff at the entrance to the valley was blasted apart, sending tens of tons of rock soaring into the sky where they shattered into tiny fragments. The white light shield flickered violently for a few moments before its radiance dimmed slightly.

  The light shield dissipated, and the red-robed Archbishop Andrei walked slowly into the valley with a white silver scepter in his hand. Behind him followed four young white-robed bishops, and behind them were twelve silver-armored knights holding heavy swords. Among the three forces, the Church had the most people and the strongest momentum.

  Of course, this is just a superficial manpower. The scattered information fed back by the Xing Jia around the valley told Gu Xie Chen that at least four parties were ambushing outside the valley. Among them, there were more than 200 Asian Taoist Alliance members who had cultivated true energy, more than 300 clergy of the Holy See wearing divine robes, and more than 300 members of the Gods' Alliance with abnormal brain spiritual power fluctuations. Apart from these three parties, the largest team was surprisingly the Romans.

  Two thousand Roman senior warriors, nearly a hundred black leopard-shaped biochemical beasts with bodies over five meters long, this team of Romans was hiding in a mountain gorge less than ten kilometers away from the valley.

  Gu Xie dust sat back on the mountain stone, he picked up the tiger that was unconscious beside him, and affectionately held the huge tiger head in his arms, rubbing it up and down.

  Andrei walked up to Gu Xiechen and drew a cross on his chest, with a smile all over his face, saying: "Praise the great Lord, are you Mr. Gu Xiechen?"

  Gu Xie abruptly pulled out the purple-silver bamboo slips from his Taoist robe sleeve and smiled, "This is what you people want. According to one of the formulas, I managed to refine a batch of special metal plates that perfectly shielded the Roman's scanner! The value of this, you all can ponder for yourselves!"

  The bamboo slips in his hand rotated lightly, Gu Xie dust looked at the suddenly tense Zhan Hua and others and smiled: "These things are not just for personal use. If they were given to the Federation... Tsk! I think your agents in the Federal Congress will gain even more power."

  Hua and others' eyes simultaneously shot out a strong light, and Xiao Zhang shouted: "Three Inverse Heaven Creation Pills, each of which can make a person with poor qualifications become a good cultivator; Nine Marrow Filling Yuan Supplement Pills, which can fill the bone marrow and supplement the yuan yang, have an amazing effect on cultivation; Twelve 9-Transformation Small Return Pills, one pill can increase the internal strength by ten years, and twelve pills taken together can increase the internal strength by thirty years."

  Xiao Zhang paused for a moment, then continued: "If Mr. Gu Xiechen has any other requirements, whether it's money, beautiful women, or power, the Asian Dao Alliance will take care of it. The Asian Dao Alliance is currently raising funds and has already raised 3.5 trillion in cash. If you want power, a seat in the Federal Parliament is waiting for you. If you want beautiful women, no matter if they're human, Roman, or any other kind of non-human species, we have all sorts of stunning beauties available."

  Huahua chuckled and added on the side, "If Mr. Gu has a strange taste, uh, I have dozens of thousand-year-old zombie beauties in Jiuyou Dao too!"

  Gu Xie's body trembled slightly, and he gave Hua a cold, stern glance.

  Bobby sneered and nodded to Gu Xiechen: "Three hundred powerful magic scrolls, thirty super magic scrolls, and six forbidden-level magic scrolls made by the joint efforts of the elders of the Gods' Union." Bobby disdainfully sneered at Little Zhang Daoren: "When our Gods' Union takes action, we don't stingily hold back like some people do."

  Taking a deep breath, Bobby continued: "Wealth and power, the Asian Taoist Association can provide, our Gods' Union can do the same. In this regard, neither of us three parties can surpass each other. If we talk about beauties, wolf girls, witch girls, all kinds of extreme physique women, my Gods' Union also has them all. If we talk about thousand-year-old zombies..." Bobby sneered with a few cold laughs: "In the Death Temple of my Gods' Union, there are corpse witches who have lived for over a thousand years, absolutely beautiful in appearance, I wonder if Mr. Gu is interested?"

  Gu Xie dust trembled again, and he dryly laughed: "Thank you, I'm not very interested in beauties."

  Andre looked at Bie Huawei and Bobby with disgust, and said gently: "I see a bright and holy heart on Mr. Gu's body, he will not be interested in those dirty, evil and filthy things. As Master Bobby said, what we three parties can give in terms of money and power is the same."

  Andre reached into the sleeve of his robe and rummaged around for a moment before pulling out a white scroll, which he handed to Gu Xuan. He smiled and said, "This is the bottom line condition that His Holiness the Pope has agreed to exchange with us. One hundred ninth-level divine scrolls personally made by His Holiness the Pope, three hundred eighth-level divine scrolls, one thousand seventh-level divine scrolls, six hundred eighth-level divine scrolls personally made by each of the cardinals, two thousand seventh-level divine scrolls, and ten thousand sixth-level divine scrolls. This accounts for ninety percent of all the divine scrolls in our Vatican's inventory over the past decade."

  Xiao Zhang and Bobby both took a cold breath at the same time. Gu Xie Chen was even more shocked in his heart.

  The Vatican's divine scrolls are infinitely useful and extremely powerful, with only a tiny portion flowing out of the Vatican each year. Not to mention the high-level divine scrolls personally crafted by the Pope, even an eighth-level defensive scroll 'Protection of the Holy Spirit' made by a cardinal has been auctioned off on the black market for the staggering price of 17.8 billion federal coins!

  Gu Xie Cen's fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he couldn't help but think of selling the bamboo slips directly to the Church.

  Andrei's face also changed, and he said seriously: "In addition to these divine scrolls, His Holiness the Pope has decided to grant Mr. Gu Xiechen three drops of angelic holy blood to help him transform his physique."

  "You're crazy!" shouted Hua, Xiaozhang, Dao Ren and Bobby simultaneously.

  "Your Holiness, how can you still have Angel's Holy Blood? This thing should have been used up long ago!"

  Andrei remained silent, he just looked at Gu Xiechen. He firmly believed that no one could refuse the conditions offered by the Vatican, three drops of angelic holy blood, a divine object that could transform people into legendary angel bodies. As long as they absorbed the angelic holy blood, they would possess eternal youth and endless vitality, no one could resist such temptation.

  As for those enormous divine scrolls... Andrei sneered to himself, the great Pope was indeed wise and powerful. After being transformed into an angelic body, his body could only accommodate pure holy light, and the evil soul of Gu Xuan would be slowly remolded by the holy light, eventually he would be inspired to become a member of the Church. When he became a member of the Church, wouldn't those scrolls return to the Church's hands?

  In the end, as long as Gu Xie Dust accepted the conditions of the Holy See, his entire person would become a person of the Holy See, and the Holy See could also obtain that mysterious bamboo slip. There was nothing more perfect than this.

  Bobby's face turned ugly, the Gods' Union temporarily couldn't bring out a treasure comparable to the Angel's Holy Blood, he brazenly took Chuck and Irene with him as they transformed into black smoke and escaped.

  Gu Xie stroked the tiger head in his arms and asked Xiao Zhang with a smile, "Isn't the Asian Dao Alliance going to make a big sacrifice?"

  Xiao Zhang's face turned red with rage as he stomped his foot, glaring at Andre: "You're really something else! We admit defeat this time! Angelic Holy Blood, you actually have such an outrageous thing! It seems that during the First Religious War, you claimed to have used up all the Angelic Holy Blood to create eighteen Guardian Saints."

  Andrei just lowered his head and smiled slightly, he had no obligation to answer these questions.

  Xiao Zhang pulled at Hua's sleeve and said calmly, "Hua Daoist friend, we admit defeat this time! It's just a bamboo slip, Heaven Star is vast, it can't be that there's only one copy!"

  Huahua stood still, staring blankly at the bamboo slip in Gu Xiechen's hand. Suddenly, he stomped his foot fiercely: "Damn it, I'm going all out! Master told me a thousand times and warned me ten thousand times that this thing can't fall into outsiders' hands. Alas... I can only sacrifice myself!"

  Gu Xie dust was overjoyed and raised his head, smiling: "Could it be that Mo Fei Huatong still has some good things?"

  "Does Mr. Gu still remember the situation when we first met in London? Sai Er killed all the people of that family, and I 'legally' obtained the last treasure of that family!"

  "Oh? What's that, baby?" Gu Xiachen's eyes lit up.

  He raised three fingers, and said in a low voice: "That is a Nine Dragon Bowl with mysterious power inside. It was lost overseas from my hometown of Huaxia many years ago. The nine dragons refer to the 'Nine Yang Nine Dragon Seal', which is an ancient seal that sealed the undead ancestor's corpse god essence blood. I took three drops, gave three drops to my master, and there are still three drops left... Take it and exchange it with you!"

  Gu Xie dust was shocked, his Dao fetus violently jumped up.

  Just as Pighead had anticipated yesterday, the aftermath of carrying two large trunks and a bunch of small items upstairs that his older sister bought at the train station is that Pighead's shoulder has a small bruise today. His shoulders, arms, wrists, thighs, especially his calves are all stiff and painful like wooden boards... Ugh, depressing!

  Just perfect, I've had a good lazy day... My mind is at ease and I don't have to work today... Oh yeah... My whole body aches though...

  Later I'll ask my wife to help me apply a medicated plaster for my dog, uh, depressing...
