Quadruple split.

Chapter 2645 Unforeseen
"Ugh."

Xia Lian sighed with a helpless expression, scratching her head as she asked Marina, "How many people actually know about this?"

"As for the convent, only Kachina and I definitely know about it."

Marina replied with a wry smile, spreading her hands and saying, "The problem now is that although Wang Yu's condition is stable and the dark divine power within her is indeed very well-behaved, we both feel that if this situation continues, there may be problems one day."

Xia Lian tilted her head and thought for a moment, then hesitated and said, "I don't think it should be a big problem. Although I was indeed tricked by the Goddess of Darkness, it's one thing to be ambushed in Misha County, but it's another thing for a god to descend upon the City of Light. Not to mention that the scum of the Dark Night Cult definitely can't get in, even if that despicable big-breasted goddess descends directly upon Wang Yu, we can still shake Little Tom over and scare him away."

"Mentor, I've said it so many times!"

Marina tugged at Xia Lian's sleeve with exasperation and said seriously, "Don't make jokes about Master Tom's appearance!"

"I'm not joking."

Xia Lian blinked and answered more seriously, "Do you believe Tom can really scare that big-breasted goddess away? Besides, even without using Tom, this is the City of Light. As long as they don't directly bring down their true forms, let alone relying on one Wang Yu, even if it's ten Wang Yus, we can definitely take them down."

"I...you...sigh."

Marina, who had been opening her mouth for a long time but found herself unable to refute, sighed and helplessly steered the conversation back on track: "In short, what I'm worried about isn't the Dark Goddess or the Dark Cult attacking. Just like you said, at least within the City of Light, neither Wang Yu nor we need to worry about safety."

Xia Lian nodded, puzzled, and asked, "Yeah, so what? What else do you two have to worry about?"

"What Kachina and I are worried about is that if things continue like this, it will be hard to keep this a secret."

Marina sighed again, and said with a wry smile, "As I just said, Wang Yu's strength has been increasing day by day. You, as a legendary figure, may not be able to feel it, but in our eyes, that child's rate of progress is a bit too outrageous. So, if she only had the blessing of our Dawn Goddess, of course, there would be no problem, but the problem is..."

"As she grows stronger, the power of the Dark Goddess Delia will become increasingly apparent, eventually making the dark divine power within her so powerful that it cannot be ignored, right?"

Although somewhat stubborn, Xia Lian wasn't oblivious. She immediately realized what Marina and Kachina, the two girls who had inherited her 'divine arts' and 'physical arts' respectively, were worried about, and smiled, "Before, Wang Yu's dark divine power was weak, so it was relatively easy to hide. But judging from the current trend, once she breaks through to the level of a half-step epic, she might not even be able to hide it from the girls in the nunnery, right?"

"Yes."

Marina nodded slightly, and said with concern, "Dawn and darkness are opposites, and given that the overall atmosphere of the City of Light is mainly peaceful and serene, the relatively unstable dark divine power will only become more pronounced. Leaving aside other sects, we..."

“We will accept Wangyu, my dear.”

Xia Lian gently pinched Marina's cheek and smiled, "Not only you, me, Kachina, Old Tom and His Holiness the Pope, I believe any devout Dawn believer would accept Wang Yu."

"but……"

Marina twisted her fingers, still somewhat uneasy, and said, "Our relationship with the Dark Cult has always been irreconcilable."

"So what? Our Dawn Cult doesn't have a minority faction, so what if we're irreconcilable enemies with the Dark Cult? So what if Wang Yu has the power of the Goddess of Darkness? It's not like she asked for divine favor. What? Just because a big bad guy likes my child doesn't mean my child is a big bad guy too?"

Xia Lian clicked her tongue indifferently and said with a sneer, "Rather than saying, it's just that the child who was favored by two goddesses is actually following Wang Yu of our Dawn Sect with utmost devotion."

Marina blinked, looking somewhat dazed, and asked, "This works too?"

"probably."

Xia Lian shrugged and said nonchalantly, "That's what Luke wrote in his letter to Ambrose anyway."

Marina, who hadn't seen Luke Tefero, the previous Pope, for long, paused for a moment and asked curiously, "So what is His Holiness the Pope thinking?"

“Ambro thinks Luca is right. Wang Yu, who was favored by both the goddess of dawn and the goddess of night, but ultimately joined our side, is a good girl who is beautiful inside and out and does not want to collude with the treacherous sects of the night.”

Xia Lian grinned and said proudly, "We should be proud of Wang Yu."

Marina smiled gently and said softly, "Of course Kachina and I know that Wangyu is a good girl, and we like her just as much as you do, mentor, but..."

"only?"

Xia Lian looked at Marina, who seemed hesitant to speak, and asked curiously, "Just what?"

"Although His Holiness the Pope, Master Tom, myself, Kachina, you, my mentor, and the sisters of the convent do not reject Wang Yu, but..."

Marina paused noticeably at this point, then gritted her teeth and said with a conflicted expression, "But I don't think everyone thinks that way."

Xia Lian: "...That's true."

“Mentor, your words can be viewed with equanimity, whether it is the Dark Cult or the necromancers. Influenced by you, Kachina and I probably share the same stance.”

Marina pursed her lips and said softly, "Of course I believe that most people, like you, my mentor, His Holiness the Pope, and Master Tom, hold the greatest expectations and goodwill toward Wang Yu. However, considering our relationship with the Dark Night Cult, as well as many issues concerning doctrine and history... I'm afraid some people may not be able to understand."

"Ok, I know."

Xia Lian nodded and said calmly, "For example, some people who have a great grudge against the Dark Night Cult, and some extremists in the Inquisition, may instinctively feel hostile towards Wang Yu the moment they learn that she is related to the power of the Dark God and is also a chosen one of the Dark Goddess. This is normal."

Seeing that Xia Lian wasn't surprised, Marina quickly asked, "So, Master, do you have a good idea?"

"There's no good way, because everyone understands the logic, even those who are hostile towards Wang Yu."

Xia Lian casually removed the star-gold cross from her back, stroking its cold, straight, heavy, heavy, heavy, heavy, heavy, heavy, heavy, and hard shaft as she softly said, "I believe that the vast majority of us in the Dawn Cult are sensible. Even if we feel bad, we will prioritize the greater good and not let outsiders laugh at us. I also believe that as long as Wang Yu is given some time, she will definitely prove herself to be a girl worthy of the Dawn Goddess's favor."

Marina swallowed and nodded gently: "Yes...yes, I think anyone who spends time with Wang Yu will know that she is a good girl."

"That's right, so most sensible people, like Clara, who, even though she feels bad, would rather leave the City of Light and not see or hear about it, won't cause us any trouble."

Xia Lian lightly flicked the shaft of her crucifix, a faint smile playing on her lips. "As for those few who don't understand the bigger picture... well, how should I put it? Even the Pope has no reason to punish anyone for such resistance, even though there's no explicit rule in the canon or doctrine that forbids people from targeting those favored by God..." Xia Lian narrowed her eyes slightly, not continuing.

However, Marina was already well aware of her mentor's intentions. Simply put, although the Dawn Cult didn't mandate that everyone be considerate of Chen Wangyu, thus leaving no reason to criticize or lecture those who lacked common sense, but—

As the only surviving member of the immortal race favored by the gods, Xia Lian Zhu Ye holds a transcendent position within the Dawn Cult and even the Holy Alliance. Having previously beaten up almost every pope, she never needs any reason to deal with anyone she wants.

I can beat you up if I want to, and I can even make sure you have nowhere to complain.

Because most of the people you can find have been beaten up by me!

Xia Lian Zhu Ye is just that domineering.

Of course, Xia Lian's arrogance wasn't because she was a great fighter, or because her ambiguous partner was a great fighter. Rather, Xia Lian was, in most cases, the kind of ruthless person who, despite her rough words and ruthless methods, would never let anyone find fault with her.

Simply put, those who were taught a lesson by Xia Lian basically deserved it.

It is precisely because Xia Lian has always adhered to such principles that her qualifications and strength have been realized. In other words, if she were truly the kind of person who is unreasonable, argumentative, and only knows how to cause trouble, let alone whether other sects would give her face, the Dawn Sect itself would restrain her and prevent her from running around and making a fool of herself.

In conclusion, Xia Lian is highly respected within the Holy Church Alliance. Her persona of being "rough in speech, ruthless in action, but reasonable in principle" has deeply resonated with the public, especially within the Dawn Cult.

In this way, even if some ambiguous situations arise that are difficult for ordinary people to handle, Xia Lian Zhu Ye can take decisive action, skipping the 'rules' and letting those who isolate, bully, or engage in underhanded tactics, and who might try to take advantage of Wang Yu, know why the flowers are so red!

Therefore, Marina had reason to believe that Xia Lian would make exceptionally smooth progress in educating the die-hards within the Dawn Cult.

In this way, only—

"As for those foreigners, they are different from us in Dawn. They don't have much hostility towards the Dark Night Cult and the Goddess of Darkness. The reason they announced that they were hostile to those people was mainly to give face to us, who are also members of the Holy Church Alliance."

As Xia Lian weighed the cross in her hand, she said in a light tone, "So as long as they're not idiots, even if they know that Wang Yu has the Dark God's favor, they won't meddle or make a fuss about it. If there really is someone so blind... heh, I can give my own people a good beating. If outsiders dare to grumble, just wait and see if I don't crack their skulls open."

"Ok."

Although she usually opposed her mentor's simplistic and crude way of doing things, Marina smiled with a sense of relief this time: "I know."

"Now that you know, you'll stop worrying unnecessarily. You're a good child in every way, but you're too thoughtful and overthink things."

Xia Lian patted Marina's head and smiled, "You can learn more from Kachina in this respect. That girl is particularly carefree. By the way, where is Kachina?"

Marina squinted and nuzzled Xia Lian's palm with her head, just like she did when she was a child. She smiled and said, "She's been spending time with Wang Yu during the service. She's probably already practicing divine magic by now."

"Let's go take a look."

"it is good."

……

A moment later
Battle Sisters' Convent, Chapel
"Wow!!!"

With a loud 'bang', Sister Kachina, the second-ranked member of the Battle Sisters' Academy, whose strength was second only to Chief Sister Marina and whose fiery temper was like a raging fire, was slammed into the wall after a black flash exploded out of nowhere, and was witnessed by Xia Lian who had just pushed open the door.

"Sister Kachina!"

Meanwhile, Yu Chen, standing on the other side of the chapel, jogged quickly, exclaiming as she cast three or four healing spells on Kachina. After noticing Xia Lian and Marina, she let out a second exclamation: "Ah!"

"Yo."

Xia Lian first waved to Yu Chen in a carefree manner, then walked up to Kachina, who was leaning against the wall and grimacing, and said with a smile, "You little rascal, how did Wang Yu manage to take care of you?"

"I suppressed my strength to a high level, wanting to test Wang Yu's dark divine magic."

Kachina scratched her head, leaned against the wall to stand up, gave Yu Chen, who looked very uneasy, a thumbs up, and grinned, "Wow, that was amazing, Wang Yu! That move was really powerful!"

Yu Chen, who had accidentally blasted Kachina away with [Shadow Spiral], pursed his lips, lowered his head almost to his chest, and muttered, "I told you I couldn't control my strength..."

"That's why you have to practice. If you don't practice, how will you master the strength? If you don't master the strength, how will you protect yourself?"

Kachina patted Yu Chen on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Also, besides yourself, you also have to protect that kid Hei Fan. I remember his strength is terrible. Don't even mention you, he's probably not even as good as me at this age."

"Well."

Upon hearing this, Yu Chen immediately turned her head away and muttered, "He doesn't need me to protect him."

"Uh?"

"There are so many people who want to protect him, some are good at fighting, some are multi-talented, some are fortune tellers, and some can arrange troops. It's not my turn."

"cough……"

"In the end, I don't need to practice any dark magic at all."

"Ah this..."

"Anyway, he won't want me to go..."
