Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 276 The massacre begins

Xinxia couldn't stand for too long, so she sat on the cold holy fire altar. The bright light of the holy fire shone on her pale and bloodless face, reflecting her thin and haggard appearance, and her miserable appearance...

She was still wearing her saint's dress, with its large hem spread out on the holy fire altar like continuous snow, lightly highlighting her incomparable Tilan holy snow-like temperament.

Lin Ran walked up along the Holy Fire Altar, his heart broken. He had never seen Xinxia like this before. Mo Fan beside him clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could destroy the place with one punch.

Xinxia still had her head down, she didn't look at Lin Ran and Mo Fan who were walking towards her.

"Xinxia, ​​we're here." The two men walked up to her and woke her up. She was either sleeping or didn't want to face them.

Xinxia slowly opened her eyes. The emotions hidden in her eyes could not be described in a few words.

She knew they would definitely come, but... she didn't want them to come. She was very afraid of herself now, but she was even more afraid of facing Lin Ran's concerned eyes and Mo Fan's care. They were the most important people to her, one was her brother and the other was the person she loved.

She raised her head after a long time. Although Lin Ran didn't have any scars on his body, his sleeves were badly damaged. It was obvious that he had been in a battle. The same was true for Mo Fan.

Before she could say anything, Xinxia covered her mouth and tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

Lin Ran hurriedly hugged Xinxia and said, "It was just a few guard dogs. It's okay."

Mo Fan nodded and then reached out and touched Xinxia's head.
From the moment he heard the bad news, Mo Fan couldn't control his emotions at all. It wasn't until he touched Xinxia's hair that he felt relieved.

Lin Ran and Mo Fan looked at each other and then Lin Ran said, "Let's go."

"Yes." Mo Fan stood up, and together with Lin Ran, he untied the hoop that locked Xinxia's waist.

There were no restrictions on this chain, so it was easy to unlock it, because what was really trapping Xinxia was not this chain, but the Saint's Temple where they were, and the almost impossible-to-defeat armed forces of the Parthenon outside the Saint's Temple!

Lin Ran picked Xinxia up. She had lost a lot of weight, and Lin Ran felt distressed. His hot tears made him feel extremely distressed.

Xinxia was already very happy now, because they came to see her, and that was enough.

"Brother Lin Ran, and Brother Mo Fan, why don't you ask me?" Xinxia couldn't help but speak.

"What do you want to ask?" Mo Fan asked.

"What do you want us to ask?" Lin Ran asked.

"I... I might be someone else." Xinxia bit her lip and spoke slowly after a long while.

The less they mentioned the most crucial thing, the more complicated Xinxia felt.

"There are still some vague images in my memory. I killed Panettia. I could have used healing magic to revive her, but I let her blood drip on my hands. I didn't have any emotions at that time, as if everything was normal. That was not me, but it was indeed me." Xinxia said.

Lin Ran didn't say anything and walked silently, while Mo Fan looked at Xinxia.

Xinxia was a little afraid to look directly into Mo Fan's eyes. She silently looked at her legs that could not move.

She had long been concerned that even the most powerful healing arts of the Parthenon had been unable to restore her legs, and now she finally had an explanation.

"I just dropped my blood on the Bishop's Bloodstone, and I saw with my own eyes that the Bishop's Bloodstone had a reaction." Xinxia continued.

She didn't want to deceive them in the slightest.

Xinxia continued, "When I was very young, I seem to remember going to a place that might be the Black Church's headquarters, and I did see the Bishop's Bloodstone..."

"Did you get it before you moved to Bo City?" Mo Fan asked.

Xinxia nodded.

Mo Fan also fell silent.

Xinxia bit her lips silently. She looked at Lin Ran's face. She hadn't said these words to anyone else because she wasn't sure if these vague words were true.

"They probably didn't wrongly accuse me. I think... I am Saran." Xinxia hesitated for a while, then spoke.

Even if this is a very absurd thing, all the hard evidence has been listed, so even if the fact is illogical, it is still the fact.

In her body, there is another memory and another personality. She will wake up at a special time, and then start to execute the plan that the Black Church has already laid out. When everything is arranged, she will fall asleep again, and the forget bug will hide everything in a vague dream.

This is why no one has seen Saran and no one knows who Saran is.

Even Saran himself doesn't know, so how can the Inquisition uncover his true identity?

"I am probably just a cover for her identity... Let me go. As long as I leave, she will be reduced to ashes." Xinxia didn't know how to convince them to let go, but she knew she had to let them go. The current situation could no longer be changed.

"You are not." Mo Fan said.

Lin Ran remained silent. He recalled his past memories and tried to make Xinxia believe that she was not Saran.

"It doesn't matter whether I am or not. Now everyone believes that I am. I have indeed been to the Black Church, and my blood has awakened the Bishop's Bloodstone... I want to die in Lin Ran's arms." Xinxia's voice became lower and lower. She knew this was cruel.

But this was her selfish desire. She just wanted to fall asleep quietly in Lin Ran's warm arms, and then die slowly.

"I've already told you, you're not!" At this time, Mo Fan's tone became heavier, and his voice was a little hoarse.

"Brother Mo Fan..."

"Don't worry, I will protect you. Anyone who dares to attack you can confess to the God of Death."

Xinxia buried her head in Lin Ran's arms. She wished that it could stay like this forever. "Xinxia is Xinxia and Saran is Saran. You are definitely not the same person, nor are you in the same body! I don't care what evidence they have, and I don't care how many people in this world believe you are. I only know that you are my sister Ye Xinxia. No one can hurt you. Not the Parthenon, not the Holy Court, not me, and of course not Lin Ran, or I'll break his legs." Mo Fan said.

Lin Ran wanted to say something naughty but couldn't, so he could only smile and say, "Don't worry, you'll be fine. We can just find a place to live a shameless life in the future."

With her long skirt dragging on the ground, Lin Ran walked down from the holy fire altar holding Xinxia in her arms, and then walked towards the door along the cold stone pillar.

It doesn’t matter whether she can leave or not, she is already very satisfied!
At this time, the heavy copper door slowly opened, and a ray of light shone down. It felt a bit like seeing the light of day again, but Xinxia knew that the real prison was just around the corner! !

Because on the steps, a group of golden knights were looking very imposing, and the magical aura surging from their bodies was already filled with a tremendous pressure, making it gradually difficult for people to breathe.

Looking down, there were two teams of judgement mages, all for the deputy hall master Xiao Shen. Now he wanted to kill himself with his own hands to tell Pan Nijia's spirit! !

There are also two hundred Judgment Mages, who are arranged into a death square. As long as someone gives the order, these elemental magics will turn into a breath of destruction and completely turn these tiny people into nothing.

Looking further away, Paniga's funeral was still being held, and many members of the Parthenon were also present, including the Holy Judges wearing the most authoritative holy garments. They were so powerful that ordinary people could not compete with them at all! !
With such heavy guards, it is absolutely impossible for them to leave!

"Lin Ran, put her down quickly. If you take another step outside with her, the Golden Knight and the Judgment Mage will execute you on the spot!!" Coulomb shouted loudly.

As soon as the gate opened, people saw Lin Ran walking out holding Xinxia and Mo Fan. Lin Ran's action was undoubtedly telling everyone in Shenshan that they were going to take them away!

As long as they can pass through the Xinghe Mountain Road, they are allowed to see anyone, but they are not allowed to take anyone away.

"Ignorance is truly fearless, haha." Yafa looked at Lin Ran and the others, with a teasing smile on his face.

"There are always some crazy people who do things that are incomprehensible."

"Lin Ran, you have to think clearly. If you take her out of the Holy Maiden Temple, the Parthenon and the Holy Inquisition will regard you as an accomplice. Although you are the benefactor of the ancient capital's catastrophe and an angel of the holy city, Saran's identity is full of crimes. Logically speaking, you are the one who should execute her." said the female sage Suti.

"The truly unforgivable ones are you. You claim to be the most authoritative and just people in the world. What the hell are you talking about the Parthenon and the Holy Inquisition? You are just a bunch of good-for-nothings and stupid people. You have only relied on a little bit of so-called ironclad evidence and have not even seen the real Saran's mask. You are already impatient to pin all the charges on a girl who knows nothing and even made up some ridiculous words... You keep saying that there is another soul and another personality hidden in her body, and that she is Saran. But who of you has seen it with your own eyes? Who of you has seen this soul and her schemes and tricks and her evil deeds? You never even bother to investigate the most superficial things, and then you come up with some things that may not be true and say they are ironclad evidence. Is this your Parthenon? This is the Holy Inquisition that is so authoritative that it cannot be questioned? I don't think it is much better than the Black Church that kills innocent people!"

Mo Fan looked at everyone's gazes and immediately cursed angrily.

Lin Ran raised the corners of his mouth slightly, waiting for Mo Fan to scold him for a while.

Lin Ran brought Xinxia to the door, which had already disturbed the entire peak. But he didn't expect Mo Fan to be so bold that he actually started to curse in front of countless Judgment Mages, Guardian Knights, Holy Mages, and Holy Judges. His voice was not concealed at all and reached the ears of everyone. In an instant, the atmosphere of the entire peak froze, and waves of murderous intent surged from the most powerful mage who could not be provoked! !

"The irrefutable evidence is the fact. Then why is it that other people's blood is ineffective, but her blood can arouse the Bishop's bloodstone!" said the great sage Merola angrily.

“So do you really know about the Black Church?” Mo Fan asked.

"This one……"

"I have killed 370 gray-robed cultists, 54 black-robed priests, and two blue-robed deacons, one of whom was a Black Church executioner. I also destroyed a Black Church altar. Let's not talk about the catastrophe of the ancient capital for now. I want to ask everyone here, how many of you have killed more Black Church personnel than I have? If so, then stand up now and tell me how much you know about the Black Church, how many blue-robed deacons do you know, and what the true identity of the cardinal is. Please take the consequences of framing an innocent girl and letting the real Saran go unpunished and tell me!!! This cardinal's bloodstone can really prove that the person is Saran, even if the person is a child, a girl who can't walk, an old man or an official, or a high-ranking official of your Parthenon or a judge of the Holy Court!" Mo Fan confronted again.

“Mo Fan, the Holy Court of Justice has already made a verdict, and everyone has determined that she is Saran. Why are you doing this?” At this time, Glocken of the Judgment Hall sighed.

"Shut up." Lin Ran said.

"you……"

Mo Fan cursed for a long time, and when his throat became dry, he swallowed his saliva.

Lin Ran said, "I just want to say that for her, I am willing to kill everyone here, because you all want to kill her, so it doesn't matter if you are killed by me, right?"

"What do you want to do?" The great sage Melora said. Seeing Lin Ran's slightly raised mouth corners, she felt something was wrong.

"I say...the temple should be destroyed today." Lin Ran said.

"Just you!?" a golden knight said.

"Of course it's not me, it's them..."

The power of Sha Yuan suddenly appeared, and the sky and the earth changed color in an instant.

A space gate appeared behind Lin Ran.

The Golden Knight discovered something was wrong and immediately launched an attack, but a figure appeared the next second. This figure did not look tall, but he interrupted everyone's magic with just a glance.

He was filled with the aura of killing, death, and the undead.

Lin Ran said, "Jiu, bring me the body of that woman."

"No problem!" Jiu walked over.

Eight, Seven, Six Flowers, Five Swords, Four Techniques, Three and Two also came out.

Lin Ran said, "Kill them."

"How dare you!?" a golden knight said, but was hacked to death by Bayi's sword the next second. The Sub-Emperor was more powerful than the forbidden spell.

"Wang, are we going to kill everyone here?" Er asked. She looked a little thin.

"Let's kill the people nearby." Lin Ran said. It would be troublesome if they went down and killed Pang Lai and the others.

Soon Ander also appeared and said, "We can transform them all into undead spirits and let Xinxia control them. This can be considered as atonement."
