The Path to Sainthood from Fairy Tail

Li Xuan walked to the side and back of the girl, almost sticking to her.

He said softly, "You are very brave. Are you coming here to save these innocent people?"

The girl calmly replied, "I'm not as brave as you, to dare to walk around dressed like this. Aren't you afraid that the knight will pierce you like a candied haws with his lance?"

Li Xuan laughed. "Him? I have to say your imagination is truly fantastic. You can even imagine things that are impossible to happen. Then please use your brain to think about it. You can't even touch the corner of my clothes. Why do you think an ordinary knight can do anything to me?"

The girl subconsciously took a step back, but soon regretted it.

She only felt as if there was a piece of iron plate behind her that was heated to red. It was not only extremely hard, but also scorching hot.

The moment she was touched, she was so scared that she pulled away.

The girl gritted her teeth and asked, "What are you doing here? Are you feeling sorry for these people and want to save them?"

Li Xuan said indifferently: "It makes no difference to me, saving him or not is fine. I came here just to see what you would do."

"After all, you are also responsible for these people being arrested."

Li Xuan's nonchalant attitude made the girl unsure for a moment.

The purpose of her coming here was, firstly, to observe the specific situation and see if the soldiers had found any clues.

The second thing is to see if there is any chance to save these people.

But after seeing the knight, the girl gave up the idea of ​​saving people.

Because she knew very well that she was no match for the speaking knight. Even if she could barely kill him with her superb assassination skills, she would not be able to save these people in the end.

This is the territory of the Golden Rooster Kingdom, and the kingdom's most elite troops are stationed outside.

Even if she could defeat a knight, what would it matter?

Once the Phoenix Legion is angered, it is not impossible that a massacre will eventually occur.

So after careful consideration, she has decided to give up the idea of ​​saving people.

As for the mysterious strong man behind her, although she thought about using him to save people, after thinking about it, she found that this idea was too naive.

Such a powerful being would never take risks for a group of ordinary people he doesn't know.

In a world where profit comes first, it would do him no good to take such a risk.

Li Xuan actually thought about rescuing these people. After all, he is a good person overall, and helping others when he sees injustice is also a good deed.

But he has more important things to do. If an unknown powerful being appears in the city, it will definitely attract the attention of the Phoenix Legion outside.

The series of consequences that would be triggered at that time would make his subsequent plans completely uncontrollable.

The girl closed her eyes and whispered, "They were captured for no reason. I have nothing to do with them. If we really want to find someone primarily responsible, the knight standing in front and talking so freely is the culprit!"

"If I'm not mistaken, he was the one who gave the order to implicate these people. Even if they want to retaliate, they won't be able to find me."

When she said this, she suddenly turned her head and stared at Li Xuan. Their faces were almost close to each other, but Li Xuan was taller than the girl, so after the girl turned her head, she still needed to tilt her head back to see Li Xuan's face.

Although her momentum had weakened somewhat at the beginning, she still steeled herself and asked, "Are you going to stand by and watch people die? You clearly have the ability, yet you're going to watch so many people die?"

Li Xuan laughed and said, "From childhood to adulthood, no one has ever been able to morally blackmail me. Do you think a random, unidentified person can take advantage of me by just saying a few random words?"

The girl thought to herself, "He really won't give in to any persuasion!"

Although she wanted to save those innocent people, in fact, she was more curious about Li Xuan's identity.

After all, this is the border, and all kinds of monsters and demons may appear.

This person with a mysterious identity might be some powerful being who came to gather information.

Therefore, this person's identity is very important, far more important than the lives of ordinary people.

Li Xuan felt that it was almost time for him to show up. If he continued, it would probably attract the attention of those soldiers.

He didn't want to get entangled with these people, so he pulled his hood and prepared to turn and leave.

Just as he took a step forward, the girl grabbed his arm and shouted, "Wait a minute!"

Li Xuan chuckled, but didn't turn around. Instead, he kept his feet together and asked, "Why, is there anything else? I'm not like you, who has nothing to do."

The girl suggested, "It's not convenient to talk here. Why don't we go somewhere else and talk slowly?"

In fact, at this time, some people had already begun to notice the existence of Li Xuan and the girl.

The people around them kept looking at the two of them, and it was obvious that they had some thoughts about them.

Li Xuan refused mercilessly: "I don't have time. Of course, if you know something that can interest me, I can talk to you about it."

Girl: "What do you want to know?"

Li Xuan softly uttered two words: "Church."

The girl agreed without hesitation: "No problem! But this is not a good place to talk. We should go somewhere else."

Li Xuan originally just said it casually, but he didn't expect that the girl would agree to it directly.

But Li Xuan was not joking. The news about the church was indeed what he needed to know now.

However, he did not have any relevant information channels, and originally planned to ask the bald old man when he went to get his identity card.

Now that it’s available, it’s just right for killing time.

So, Li Xuan asked, "Where do you think is safer?"

The girl was in a dilemma at this time. For a moment, she couldn't think of where she could find a relatively safe place.

Seeing that the girl hadn't replied, Li Xuan suggested, "I know a place that has official background and is generally not investigated."

Although the girl felt that being led by the person in front of her was very passive and was a very irresponsible behavior for her own safety.

But considering the strength of the person in front of her, she finally chose to compromise.

"Sure, as long as there aren't any extra people eavesdropping there!"

Li Xuan spread his hands and said, "I can't guarantee that."

The girl frowned: "Then why did you suggest going to that place?"

She knew very well that what they were about to talk about was all about beheading, and choosing a safe place was the key condition.

Li Xuan was not anxious at all, and asked: "Then do you have a better choice?"
