3062 The Goddess’ Visit

At the Holy Palace…

Michael stood by the pond and sprinkled fish food onto the water.

There was not even a single fish inside the pond. Still, he continued to do so.

It did not take long before the birds in the garden flew over. They took away the fish food floating on the surface of the water and returned to the branches.

More birds flew over and took away the fish food on the surface of the water. Michael did not care which bird ate his food. He continued to feed them.

Ramiel walked quickly toward Michael. The ground shook slightly due to his stout physique. Dust rose as he walked.

“Something’s happening. Zu Huanyao turned his back against us in the middle of the trial,” Ramiel said gruffly.

“He has been doing well in the past.” Michael had white hair at his sideburns. However, he looked very young and energetic as a whole. It was hard to guess his current age.

“If not for him, the trial would have come out with the final decision by now. We only needed six stones to drive the kid to death and make him die without a burial!” said Ramiel.

“We can’t tip our hand yet. Without absolute certainty, we can’t reveal our true intentions. Otherwise, our previous efforts will go to waste,” said Michael.

There were a total of eleven stones.

They had basically confirmed that the Hunter Union, St. Paul’s Holy Church, the Sacred Hall of Liberty, and the Cape of Good Hope Magic Castle voted for the black stones. They were very certain of it. The people from China even had the wishful thought of changing the black and white stones of the Hunter Union through Mo Fan’s achievements. Unfortunately, they failed.

The chief of the divine magistrate of the Holy Judgment Court and the Heresy Judgment Court was Ramiel. He owned a black stone.

They were certain that they had five black stones in hand. They were still short of one that was crucial to them.

As long as Zu Huanyao made his stand and voted for black during the Holy Court today, there would not be any later hearings. Ramiel would immediately proceed to the final step—the stone verdict.

Once they had six black stones in hand, Mo Fan was almost certain to die.

Unfortunately, Zu Huanyao had made a stupid decision. As a result, they had to drag the trial once again. This provided Mo Fan with a turnaround chance.

“I don’t think it’s a good idea to let the trial drag on. We’re almost certain that we have five stones in our hands. As long as any of the people from St. Kai’s Altar, the institution, the Chamber of Commerce, or the Tribe Alliance obeyed us and voted for black, Mo Fan will never be able to make a comeback,” said Ramiel.

“I’ve received some news. St. Kai’s Altar will most likely change their mind,” said Michael.

“Huh?! St. Kai’s Altar never goes against us, right?” asked Ramiel in puzzlement.

“They’re just like birds. As long as someone feeds them, they don’t mind if the food is fish food or bird food. Even if they have to risk falling into the pond, they will go after the food,” said Michael.

“Do you mean someone has promised St. Kai’s Altar with greater benefits, making them bold enough to disobey us?” asked Ramiel angrily.

“It’s true that we’ve paid very little attention to St. Kai’s Altar in the past. As a result, they refuse to listen to us in times of our need. Aside from Parthenon Temple, who else can provide St. Kai’s Altar with the benefits? Apart from Parthenon Temple, who else can influence so many magic associations? The girl is truly capable. I’ve underestimated her ability in the past,” said Michael.

“We’ve tried our best to delay the election.” Ramiel breathed out a long sigh.

Still, it was too difficult to control Parthenon Temple. It had always been the same for Parthenon Temple for thousands of years.

“Don’t you think it’s scary?” asked Michael.

“How is it scary?” asked Ramiel in puzzlement.

“Since when do we have to put in so much effort to get rid of a heretic? Since when have the major organizations begun to break free of us…” said Michael.

“Perhaps Mo Fan is more troublesome compared to others. Not everyone has the same influence and power,” said Ramiel.

“That’s why Mo Fan is exceptionally terrifying. He is capable of influencing half of the magic associations in this world,” said Michael.

“Michael, you misunderstand. It’s because we’re sentencing an influential person to death that attracts all the objections including the rise of public opinion to oppose the idea. This is perfectly normal. Executing Wen Tai by force, in the beginning, led us to today’s problem. Many people are dissatisfied with how we do things. But if they go against the Holy City or declare war on us, I believe none of the organizations and no one will dare help them. We are still the people in charge of the planet. It’s just that we may not receive 100% approval for some of our decisions. Mo Fan is still far from being able to influence half of the magic associations. You’re overthinking.” Ramiel laughed.

Michael thought about it carefully.

Indeed, he had fallen into a misconception.

“We will pressurize the institutions. We need the black stone from the institutional organizations,” said Michael.

“That kid won first place in the World College Tournament. Hence, the people from the institutions are hesitant. Perhaps, they are concerned about the reputation of the World College Tournament. Meanwhile, the two international institutions, Ojos Holy School and Alps Mountains are doing all they can to clear Mo Fan’s charge,” said Ramiel.

“Got it. I knew it. I must say that fellow has done a lot of good deeds in the past. Unfortunately, why did he take the path to become the Wicked God?” asked Michael.

“Shall I go on with the trial?”

“Of course!”

“The Goddess wants to see him. I don’t think we can reject her.”

“Let her see him, but you must be present.”

At the Holy Palace…

The guards of honor marched into the large hall from the promenade hall. They were the knights from Parthenon Temple. They lined up in two rows neatly and formed a wall of humans.

In the middle of the wall of humans stood Ye Xinxia in her white dress that belonged to a goddess. She looked simple but elegant. The Holy Judges could not help but gasp in surprise upon seeing the sight.

Why did Parthenon Temple always appear more ostentatious compared to the Holy City?

“We need to do an inspection. You cannot bring in any magical substances,” said Holy Shadow Brooke to Ye Xinxia.

“Do you mean a body search?” refuted Ye Xinxia.

“Pretty much. Regardless of who you are, as long as you enter the courtyard—” Holy Shadow Brooke started in a business-like manner.

At that moment, Hua Lisi had already walked up to Holy Shadow Brooke. Her eyes were filled with hostility.

Her imposing aura served as a warning to the people in the Holy Palace that whoever dared approach the Goddess or touch her, Hua Lisi would cut their heads off regardless of who they were!

For a moment, the atmosphere in the promenade hall was frightening.

A group of knights stood by the side. The Golden Sun Knights and the Knights of the Seal were completely different from the past. Their strengths were as powerful as the Holy Shadow.

Meanwhile, the Holy Shadow and the Holy Judges stood on the other side. They had never been provoked like this in their own territory. Since when had Parthenon Temple dared be so rude to the people of the Holy City?
