Douluo: Emperor of Light

Chapter 79 Bishop
The corners of Joseph's mouth turned up, and with a relaxed smile, he returned to the Wuhun Branch Hall, the exclusive room for the bishop.

Along the way, there were constant monks who bowed their heads and saluted him, making his steps more brisk.

He's been very happy lately.

The long-awaited position of bishop was now at his fingertips, the more respectful attitude of the monks around him, and the admiring eyes of the commoners all made him happy.

He had waited eight years for this day, and now he finally got rid of that troublesome old guy!
"It's just a pity ~ Wuhundian has become more and more ineffective recently. I have already looked down upon the status of bishop."

Joseph sat down, sighing like reciting with a hint of disgust.

Perhaps, this is what I can't get, and I long for it, but after I get it, I feel that it is nothing more than this, full of regrets.

"dong dong dong~"

After knocking on the door, there was a familiar but annoying old voice.

"My lord priest, a noble palace master has come to Wuhun City, and I have already brought him here."

Joseph was a little annoyed, subconsciously reprimanded impatiently: "Deacon Anne, please call me the vicar bishop, or the acting bishop!"

After he finished speaking, two seconds later, he came back to his senses and was in a daze: "Wait, what did you just say?"

At this time, the strong and tight door of the main classroom was opened for some reason.

Two people came in from the outside, one was Annie, whom he had long known and hated, and the other was a young man who was completely unknown, wearing a gorgeous platinum robe, and had a dignified and sacred demeanor.

An invisible but real powerful aura emanated from his body.

"Each branch hall of Wuhundian has the right to appoint a deputy bishop to assist the bishop in managing the area. When the bishop is away, he can act as the bishop's deputy, so it is also called the deputy bishop."

"Although the vice bishop does not need to be canonized by the Pope, and the locality can arrange it on its own, it still needs to submit a relevant record to the headquarters."

Qingyang slowly came to Joseph's desk, his voice was gentle and natural, without any negative emotion.

"But as far as I know, the bishop in Koyinol City has not submitted relevant reports to Wuhun City."

"Then please, my lord vicar, who appointed you, the so-called vicar?"

Qingyang looked at Joseph with a smile on his face, making his body stiff and sweating profusely.

"Hall...Hall Master?"

Joseph stuttered a little, murmuring subconsciously, not knowing how to answer.

He is very clear about the meaning of this word. Every hall master is an existence in charge of a department with real power, with a high position and authority at the top of the Spirit Hall.

The lowest level of their soul masters is Contra, and some have even become Title Douluo!

He took a quick look at Annie respectfully following behind him, and knew that this guy would never fool himself with such a thing.

only……

When did Wuhun City send people here?Why didn't he and his allies receive any news at all?
No, you must not let him know about those things, otherwise...

Thinking of the consequences, Joseph shuddered fiercely.

"This... Palace Master, I don't know how to call it? It was just a slip of the tongue on my part just now, yes, a slip of the tongue."

"Maybe you don't know that after the bishop passed away, all the members of the branch hall had applied to Wuhun City and unanimously agreed that I should be the vice bishop, so I was a little excited and went out of line for a while."

Joseph smiled awkwardly, and quickly calmed down the panic in his heart.

The strong psychological quality he has cultivated over the years and his incomparably rich experience quickly allowed him to find a relatively appropriate reply.

Generally speaking, the vice-bishop itself is not appointed by Wuhun City, but appointed by the local bishop, so according to this statement.

Although there are some problems, they have little effect.

However, Joseph's way of making excuses and refusing to admit it caused Annie to frown. What Spirit Hall needs is not such flatterers.

Although this kind of person is always indispensable, it will always make people disgusted, especially the more upright and stubborn old deacon like Annie.

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense to you anymore, you should know about the problems in this city, can you give me a relatively reasonable explanation?"

Qingyang didn't bother with this small problem of addressing anymore, he looked at Joseph with a questioning look, and at the same time he raised his tone a little bit.

Joseph smiled, and inadvertently moved his fingers hidden behind him slightly.

Compared to exposing yourself to have problems, these things are more important, and they must be destroyed no matter what!
"Ok?"

Qingyang turned his head slightly, and looked at the simple and high-end wooden office desk and the surrounding filing cabinets.

The next moment, a violent flame burst out from it and expanded rapidly. In just a few breaths, part of the paper documents, together with the contents, were completely burned.

The strange thing is that after the flames burned these things, they didn't take advantage of the situation to diffuse, but just disappeared, as if they had been prepared for a long time.

Qingyang watched all this with great interest, and didn't have the slightest intention to stop it.

"How is this going?"

Annie exclaimed, wanting to go over to see the situation, but because of his status and authority, he didn't dare to really approach the past.

In this main classroom, all the documents have certain functions, even if there are some fragments left, it is not something that he, the deacon, can read at will.

"What's put here are all unimportant information. The really important things should be somewhere else. I can't even think about it."

Joseph was stared at by Qingyang, and listening to his calm and composed words, for some reason, his heart became tense again.

"This... Lord Palace Master, this must be a good job done by the spies of the Star Luo Empire!"

Joseph seemed to be in a rage, covering up his true thoughts.

"They have been spying on this city in recent years. Even the bishop was assassinated and died. I didn't expect that they are still here now!"

Annie on the side immediately became angry when he heard the words. As long as he thought of the tragedy in the city and those innocent civilians, he would feel uncomfortable.

And these are actually caused by the Star Luo Empire, these cruel and selfish guys!
"Where did the food that the Wuhun Palace transferred for disaster relief go? The Star Luo Empire also transferred a batch, so don't tell me, these materials just disappeared out of thin air?"

Qingyang was noncommittal and asked again.

"My lord, I do know this. Since there is no surplus food in the nearest cities, this batch of food was transferred from the main city, and the caravan of the nobles in the city will undertake the transportation."

"But for some reason, it seems to be blocked on the road. As for the situation of the Star Luo Empire, I don't know much about it."

Annie told what he knew about the situation, and Joseph gave him a grateful look. This is also news that many people know.

Qingyang nodded, assassinated the bishop, blocked the rescue, and created chaos. All these things must be dominated by a big force, and it would not be false to say that it is the Star Luo Empire.

However, he would not believe it if it was said that the sanction hall really had nothing to do with it.

"Master Qingyang, the latest news from the trial team!"

In the blink of an eye, a woman appeared here and submitted a report to Qingyang.

　Well, trying to fix it...lots of updates!
