Chapter 48: Endless Oppression

  Di Ci sneered and said: "You can't wake him up! Because he has no soul now!"

  "What?" Taylor stared at Dice in shock.

  "His soul has already been sent to the underworld by me! As for you... now I will send you one by one to reunite!" Dis dodged Alaed's dragon breath with a flash of his body, saying impatiently: "You're really troublesome! Since you're looking for death, then I'll fulfill your wish!" Dis raised his index finger again.

  "Aleid, watch out! Get out of the way!" Taylor shouted. Even the Pope was defeated by this move, Aleid definitely can't take it.

  "Body! Can't move!" Alred looked at Dis's hand with a black whirlpool, was he going to die?

  "Corpse energy...... Hmm! This feeling!" Feeling a wave of fluctuation in space, Dis drops his hand and looks towards Griefitz. Alled falls directly from the sky because he stopped flapping his wings.

  A transparent ghost fire appeared in the air and flew into Griffiz's body.

  "How could this be, my Underworld Wave! It was actually...!"

  "Cough...cough..." Griffin actually slowly stood up from Philomena's arms!

  "Your Holiness!" "Grandfather!" The group of people looked at Gryffitz excitedly!

  "I told you so! The Pope can't die, all that soul and underworld stuff is a scam!" "Grandpa, you scared me to death! I thought... Waaahhh..."

  "Everyone retreat, quickly fall back! He can send people's souls to the underworld! You are no match for him! If your souls are also sent to the underworld, I will be powerless!" Griffitz commanded in a low voice "Quickly! Get away from the battlefield!"

  "What! It's really true!" "Sir!" "How is it possible?" "Grandpa!"

  "What the...?! What kind of magic is this?!" Gryffindor ignored everyone's words, took two steps forward, looked at Dis, and gripped his staff tightly. Just now, his own soul had indeed reached the gates of the underworld, if not for the sacred word technique and his own immense spiritual power, he would have... He actually has such magic!

  "Hmph...!" Dis narrowed his eyes at Grifitz, a cold sweat trickling down his forehead. This old man was actually able to come back on his own? Dis gritted his teeth. Did he really have to use the Ghost Flame to defeat him? It seemed like he had no choice but to use the Underworld Wave again. This time, he would definitely burn him to ashes! "You're truly impressive! You can still come back! Since you were able to break through my previous move, I'll show you another one. This time, your soul will disappear forever!"

  "Corpse Energy——Netherworld Wave!!!" A black light beam shot straight towards the Pope.

  "Holy Word! Devoted Swordswoman!!!" A flash of light, a goddess-like beautiful figure with swords in both hands, slashes towards Dis.

  Just as the black and white lights were about to collide, a powerful aura suddenly came from afar! The two of them hastily stopped their hands!

  "Who?! What kind of aura is this?! Even the light elements in the air are being scattered!" Griffitz withdrew his hand and looked towards the source of the aura, this feeling was too dangerous! This aura, surpassing everything! Such an overbearing aura... Griffitz thought for a moment, he could only think of one word to describe it: "Overbearing"

  "What's going on? Is this the aura of a young master?! But what's happening? How did he suddenly become so powerful?" Dais felt Francis' presence, but was surprised by his sudden surge in aura.

  It's not just the two of them, even Aiolos and Saber on the side felt Francis' presence. "This is Young Master's aura, Young Master has arrived!"

  "This is the master's aura! How terrifying! It's much stronger than when he defeated me initially!" Garei looked at the direction of the aura in surprise, this overbearing and domineering aura was too terrifying, a weakling like him wasn't even worthy of existing alongside it!

  "What is this? Something's coming!" Alred gazed at Francis in terror, what kind of aura was this, so overbearing. Even the dragon might of the Divine Realm didn't have this feeling! What was it?!

  "Aried! Is that Ryuu's power?! How terrifying?!" Taylor swallowed his saliva, his legs trembling nonstop, the atmosphere around him growing heavier by the second. Was he going to collapse?! But Aried, who was in a state of panic, didn't respond to him.

  "What is this! What kind of aura is this? A magical beast? Or perhaps... a ferocious beast!" Philomena felt her legs could no longer support her standing, and she began to tremble involuntarily.

  "It's Mom! It's Mom!" Dolores flew up directly, her eyes red as she flew towards the direction of the breath.

  Whoosh———!

  A gust of wind swept by, and Deloris was directly enveloped in a not-so-wide chest! Golden shoulder-length hair, gentle eyes, an almost divine perfect face, and a white long gown, just like the goddess from the Bible descending into the mortal world!

  Everyone's mind flashed with the word 'goddess'!

  "What is this?" Griffitz looked at Francis, who was this girl?

  "Is that a goddess?" Philomena gazed at Francis in a daze, how beautiful! That aura of making all things submit, was it her?

  "Mom! Those guys are bullying Dolores! And that red dragon is trying to catch me too! Waaahhh...!" Dolores burst into tears and flung herself into Francis' arms.

  "Master!" The three Dis flashed directly to Francis's front and knelt down on one knee. At this time, Francis emitted an aura that made them dare not look straight at him. Geli also retracted the holy flame and shrunk his body, lying down at Francis's feet!

  "Get up! I told you, you don't have to be like this!" Francis said with a smile, his radiant smile was like the first ray of sunshine in early spring, warm and gentle, enough to melt any ice and snow.

  "Master! Where are you now?" Dais looked at Francis in surprise, this way reminded him of the last time he ran wildly.

  "It's alright! I'm just taking back what's rightfully mine! It won't be like it was before!" Francis understood what Dice was worried about and smiled as he replied.

  "Thanks again!"

  "No! It's my duty!" Saber's face turned red as she recalled the whirlpool from last night.

  Francis's mouth corners also slightly smiled, as if feeling something! Holding the Dolores in his arms, Francis kissed and said: "Is Dolores saying that the red dragon bullied you? How did he bully you?"

  "He's putting on a fierce face and scaring me!" Deloris struggled and hugged Francis' neck again!

  "Really? Then will Mommy get revenge for you?" Francis said with a smile.

  "Hmm! But that red dragon is huge and looks so intimidating!" Dolores said hesitantly.

  "Hahaha!" Francis's laughter reached Alred's ears, startling him out of his daze! "Who are you? Why did the princess call you mom? You're clearly not a dragonkin! Human! Who are you?"

  "Princess? Delores? That's rich, but you just scared my daughter!" Francis narrowed his eyes at Alaed, who was flying in the air again. "Oh! So that's how it is! Delores is still a dragon princess? Looks like this is going to be a waste of time! But you made my daughter cry! No matter what your intentions were, hurting my daughter comes with a price!" The overbearing aura directly locked onto Alaed, the king's imposing presence suddenly rising. To Alaed, it was as if the sky had collapsed on his head, endless pressure pouring down from above and crushing him. Unable to resist or even struggle, the massive dragon body fell to the ground, and before Alaed passed out, he heard a voice in his mind: How can such a weak existence stand alongside me?!

  "Aled!" Taylor looked at Aled foaming at the mouth and falling from the sky, scared and rushed over.

  A figure flashed before him, and Tyler was stopped in his tracks. Before him stood Griffitz: "Don't go! Alaed is fine, just fainted! The situation is terrible now! We'll probably have to escape today!"

  "What!" Taylor looked at Gryffitz in surprise, the Pope actually said he wanted to escape.

  "The enemy is too strong! I can no longer protect you all! You take the others and use the space scroll to leave here later! I'll stall for time!" Griffitz gave his orders directly, Dis's moves were too unpredictable, he was already having a hard time dealing with him, and now another unknown quantity had appeared...

  "How can this be! Let the adults stay here and fight! Please let me go!" Taylor strongly disagreed with Griffitz's opinion.

  "Don't worry! I'm already at the God level! Short-distance teleportation is still no problem! So, I won't be in trouble! This is an order, hurry up and execute!" With that, Grifitz didn't bother with Taylor anymore and directly used the magic he hadn't finished using earlier!

  "Holy Word! Devoted Swordsmen!"

  "Lightning Speed Fist!!" Standing at the outermost position, Aiolos directly intercepted the attack!

  A flash of golden light swept by, directly dispersing the goddess holding a sword in both hands. Looking at the white-bearded old man in front of him, Francis's heart let out a scream. The Pope of Light!!! Is he really the Pope of Light? Isn't this a super boss? How can he appear so early?!

  Following the routine of all Xian Xia, this guy is specifically at odds with the protagonist and is the protagonist's number one enemy! Although they all end with the protagonist winning, this guy will also bring a lot of trouble! And what Francis fears most is trouble! Rubbing his chin, Francis thought: Should I just get rid of him here? If he's a narrow-minded guy, let him go like that, and he'll come back for revenge later. But if we fight, I might not be able to kill him, or he might summon some god before dying... Just thinking about it gives Francis a headache! The enemy has too strong a backing! And his strength is so powerful! It's really unknown how those predecessors who came from other worlds dealt with this guy in the past!

  Wait, it doesn't have to be a fight! Francis suddenly thought: according to the idea of that dragon just now, this thing is obviously a misunderstanding! Why do we have to fight to the death, can't we just make peace? Hmm, fantasy novels are really misleading...

  "What! My Sacred Word technique was actually blocked by a Saint...!" Griffitz stopped his attack, what is the origin of this group of people...?

  "Your Holiness! Grandfather!" Several voices called out from behind, and Gryffitz knew what was happening without turning around. "You really are... clueless!"

  "Leaving the Pope to fight alone goes against my chivalrous spirit!" Taylor said directly, "And as a knight, how can I abandon Alde and escape on my own?"

  "Grandfather! I can also contribute!" "Your Holiness, no need to say more, we are the stewards of the Holy Temple after all! How could we let you stall for time?" "..."
