章 588: Ascension Ceremony at Church of Nuwa (part-3)

Even Cardinal Yan Chao too stood nearby Shi En to protect him from further ambushes. Now that the decision is over and Shi En received the mandate from their goddess, all cardinals and bishops and everyone else who belonged to the church must stay loyal to the new Supreme Pontiff.

The former Supreme Pontiff kneeled to a collapsed Shi En and checked his system as purple patches slowly started appearing on his skin. Letting out a gasp of surprise, he spoke, "The needle released the spell of powerful witchcraft inside him. If we don't act fast, he will die."

"No, that's impossible," Shi En (elf) argued with the old man, "my human counterpart, my brother received the mandate of Goddess Nuwa. He should have already become an immortal by now."
