I'm a little panicked when I cross the collapse

"Bishop Otto, now that you've returned alive, what about Lu Qiong?!"

Seeing the situation become slightly tense, Durandal, anxious about her husband, finally couldn't suppress her emotions and questioned Otto.

"Oh? Lu Qiong... he hasn't returned to this world yet?"

Otto was somewhat surprised.

“Bishop Otto, Lord Lu Qiong has been missing for a full month, and the time he disappeared was exactly the moment you were destroyed…”

The perceptive maid Rita immediately noticed the unusual tone in Otto's voice and patiently explained it to him.

Suddenly, Rita changed the subject, staring directly into Otto's emerald green eyes. "So, you've seen him, haven't you?!"

When Rita voiced this speculation, Theresa and Durandal were overjoyed and immediately looked at Otto with great eagerness, hoping he could tell them Lu Qiong's whereabouts.

"Otto!!"

A ball of blazing flame hurtled toward them at an incredibly terrifying speed.

The target is Otto.

Kiana's angry roar immediately made Durandal's pretty face change color.

"Kiana, calm down!"

Durandal gripped the black bowl of midnight light with increasing force, and powerful waves of energy emanated from her beautiful body, which was encased in armor, spreading outwards.

Whoosh!

With a loud bang in the air, Durandal brandished her spear and charged toward her sister.

??!

The two weapons collided violently, sparks flew everywhere, and the entire area, spanning hundreds of meters, was filled with a scorching heat.

With the Flame King Sword blocked by the spear, Kiana, staring at Durandal's resolute gaze, gritted her teeth and growled in a low voice, "Sister, are you going to stop me?! If it weren't for him, brother wouldn't have..."

Faced with her sister's questioning, Durandal immediately realized that this was her only chance to explain the situation.

"Kiana, listen to me..."

.........

On the ground, Kallen, standing beside Otto, was still somewhat astonished and uncertain. "That terrifying power just now... was it Kiana? My descendants are all so strong!"

Think back to yourself. You carried the Divine Key—"The Oath of Judah"—and went to Shenzhou with great enthusiasm (mainly to fight powerful people, not to invade) to carry out the mission of the Eastern Expedition. However, you were defeated in one move by the Crimson Iris Immortal who had been protecting Shenzhou for hundreds of years........

In the end, they could only slink back with their families.

A strange sense of frustration welled up inside her, as if she, as an elder, had disgraced the Kaslana family.

Otto, who was constantly watching Kallen's condition, gently shook his head and comforted her in a tender tone: "Kallen, don't worry about these things. You are different from them. Bianca and the others are not just people with the excellent bloodline of the Kaslana family, Herrschers, fully awakened Stigmata, and experience gained from frequent training and combat..."

"Yes, I know all that, it's just... I'm just feeling a bit sentimental."

"Wait? Saintess Karen...?"

It was then that Theresa noticed the woman next to her grandfather.

She had already read Susana's emergency report. Although she was very surprised by the fact that her grandfather Otto had been resurrected, she didn't quite believe that he could capture Kiana so easily (take Kiana hostage).

Kiana may have been weak in the past, but her progress over the years has been evident to all. She has now grown into an outstanding Valkyrie capable of standing alone.

"Moreover, her attitude towards Grandpa..."
