As the High Sparrow finished speaking, seven star warriors appeared before everyone. They walked over majestically in armor, surrounded by three nuns, who pushed Lyanna to the steps.

Lyanna looked pale, but in good spirits. The three nuns, on the other hand, had bruises on their faces, as if they had just been beaten. There was blood at the corners of their mouths, and it was obvious that they had been brutally abused.

"I'm here! Becot, Garon, and Refrey! I knew you would come to pick me up." Lyanna's eyes lit up when she saw the scene below, and she waved excitedly. Just then a nun pushed her, but she dodged and kicked the nun off the steps. Liu Yuan, Becot, and Refrey all smiled knowingly. Lyanna was still full of energy, and it seemed that she had not suffered any loss in the church dungeon.

Lyanna broke free and was about to run over, but several Star Warriors blocked her way and one of them grabbed her arm.

"Take your dirty hands off me! Don't touch my sister." Liu Yuan's eyes were cold. He grabbed the spear from the soldier beside him and threw it out with force. The spear came close in the blink of an eye, flashing with silver light, and cut the warrior's arm in two like cutting butter. The speed was as fast as lightning, catching everyone off guard. Everyone was stunned, even the warrior only realized the pain when the blood spurted out. They hugged their arms and wailed on the ground, finally waking up the people present. Blood splattered, screams rang out, and the people around were startled. They drew their weapons and looked at Liu Yuan and others vigilantly.

The High Sparrow was shocked and angry when he saw this. He shouted, "Galon! How dare you hurt someone in the cathedral? You are defying the will of the gods!" The Holy Sword Knights behind him took a step forward and drew out their Star Swords, while the Star Warriors below also raised their weapons.

Liu Yuan sneered and responded without showing any weakness: "The will of the gods? You clergymen use the name of gods to pursue your own selfish interests, and you even have the nerve to claim it as the will of gods! Well, stop talking nonsense, do you want to hand over the people or not?"

At the same time, the black-armored soldiers quickly rushed to the front line and lined up in a neat queue. They were wearing heavy armor, with only their eyes exposed, which made them look like steel monsters. The atmosphere at the scene became more and more tense because of their appearance, as if a war was about to break out. At this time, a rumbling sound of footsteps suddenly came from the distance. Everyone looked over and saw huge figures slowly walking towards here.

"Giant! It's a giant!" Of course, some people in the crowd had seen the Giant Guard before, and some of the timid ones had already sneaked away. The giants were majestic, wearing golden armor, holding large long-handled battle axes, and standing behind Liu Yuan with a menacing look.

The High Sparrow shouted angrily: "Garon! What you did is simply a blasphemy against the Seven Gods! If you dare to kill someone in this sacred place, you will be cursed by the gods! Today, not only your sister, but also you will be judged by God! Our church will spread your deeds to every corner of the Seven Kingdoms, let everyone know your evil deeds and spit on your behavior!"

However, Liu Yuan just smiled slightly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes. He said, "I'm really curious, what gave you the courage to face me? Was it these warrior sons who have never been to the battlefield and only know how to bully small vendors? Or was it your so-called seven gods that you made up? Do you think I care about those broken stone statues? Hahahahaha..." After saying that, he laughed mockingly.

His words were like a sharp sword, piercing the hearts of everyone present. Those devout believers showed angry expressions on their faces. They could not tolerate such blasphemy against the gods. However, the High Sparrow felt an unprecedented crisis from these words.

He knew the influence and status of the Church of the Seven Gods. Over the past thousands of years, along with the expansion of the Andals, the influence of the Church of the Seven Gods has spread almost all over Westeros. No kingdom dared to offend the majesty of the church easily. Even Aegon the Conqueror, who unified the seven kingdoms, eventually chose to convert to the faith of the Seven Gods in exchange for religious support. And the cruel Maegor who dared to attack the church only disarmed the church with the help of the dragon, but never dared to touch the church's transcendent status.

But the man in front of him was so bold that he openly challenged the authority of the church and defied the gods! The High Sparrow glanced at the people who were squeezed aside by the soldiers, and then looked up at the magnificent dome of the Baelor Cathedral. He once again reaffirmed his belief in his heart - no matter what, he must not let this man shake the foundation of the church. He must maintain the dignity of the church and defend the glory of the Seven Gods!

If he chose to retreat at this time, all his efforts would be in vain. Moreover, he still had a trump card in his hand, Lyanna was being held hostage. If things really developed to the point of no return, then sending her back secretly and giving her more compensation would also be a feasible plan.

However, we must not compromise easily at this moment! The High Sparrow shouted at the top of his voice: "Perhaps each of us is afraid of death, but please believe me, behind us stand the omnipotent Seven Gods! We firmly believe that as long as we have the protection of the gods such as the Father, the Virgin, the Warrior, the Girl and the Stranger, we will have the courage to face death without fear. We are all insignificant lives, and the reason we can live to this day is entirely due to the gift of the Virgin. We have neither noble surnames, nor impressive family backgrounds, nor fame. But it is precisely because of this that we represent the vast majority of people. And the faith of the Seven Gods has become a bond that closely ties us together. As long as we work together, we can change the whole world, and no force can stop us from moving forward!" His voice was impassioned and full of inciting charm. Many civilians who were originally beaten and crying were encouraged, and they raised their heads and stared at the soldiers with hateful eyes. Some people even began to look for stones and sticks to use as weapons. The people of King's Landing had a tradition of rioting, and they had even killed dragons.

Countless warrior sons in black robes poured out of the cathedral. There were a lot of them, as many as four or five thousand. These people had seven-pointed stars engraved on their foreheads and held simple weapons in their hands, filling up the steps in front of the cathedral.

Liu Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the surging crowd nearby. He said softly: "Alas~ I wanted to give you a chance to live. Big Sparrow, you are ambitious and capable. But you are born in the lower class and will never be able to see through the truth of this world. Go ahead! Be careful and don't hurt my sister." His voice was not loud, but it echoed in everyone's ears.
