Chapter 563 Chasing celebrities into the bedroom?! (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)

When the news reached the cave, Carlos smashed his wine glass in anger: "Damn Alfred, the security is really tight!"

At this moment, one of the subordinates timidly suggested, "Sir, why don't we let the lady herself go? I heard that the guard has a thing for that."

"Insolence!" Isabella roared in fury, lashing her long whip across the man's face.

Carlos, however, seemed to be deep in thought. He pressed his wife's hand and said, "Madam, this is a good idea, for the sake of the Blood Demon Society's great cause."

Carlos was also an extreme person, driven by a desire to retaliate against the Papacy.

Isabella pressed her red lips together, and finally said coldly, "Fine, I'll go, but I must personally finish off that guard!"

The phrase "for the great cause of the Blood Demon Society" is just like the Pope's words "for the Holy See," capable of driving believers to madness and recklessness.

That evening, a new group of "dancers" arrived at the manor gate.

This time, the team leader, Isabella, changed into a semi-transparent gauze dress, and her fiery red long hair was styled into an exquisite updo, exuding charm with every gesture.

Pedro stared in disbelief and immediately ran to report it.

When Alfred saw Isabella, his eyes lit up like light bulbs: "Please wait a moment, madam! I'll go and ask the Royal Guard!"

Normally, if Alfred saw such a beauty, he would have planned to enjoy her himself.

But things are different now. If he can please Li Chen, Li Chen might reward him, and he will benefit greatly.

Sometimes, Alfred even hated that he wasn't a woman.

He scurried to Li Chen's room and excitedly shouted through the door, "My lord! A top-notch dancer has arrived! I guarantee she'll suit your taste!"

Inside the room, Gwyneth, who was serving Li Chen, was furious. "I've been serving Li Chen so diligently, and I only get a little bit of the Holy Light from the bodyguards at night. And someone is still stealing it?"
My own husband is such a troublemaker!
But Li Chen smiled and replied, "Bring him in."

When Isabella swayed gracefully into the hall, even the well-informed Li Chen couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

This woman was not only stunningly beautiful, but more importantly, she possessed a wild and untamed spirit that set her apart from the docile ladies of the manor.

It's like a wild horse, making you want to ride it with all your might.

"I am Isabella, and I have come to perform a dance for you, my lord." Isabella bowed, deliberately revealing a glimpse of her cleavage.

She appeared charming on the surface, but inwardly she was sneering: "I'll make you, you lecherous devil, die a quick and painless death soon!"

Li Chen leaned back on the soft couch and said with a smile, "Jump, let me see your 'skills'."

Isabella began to display her amazing dance moves.

She started with a difficult backbend, her slender waist bending into an astonishing arc, her snow-white breasts faintly visible under her gauze dress.

Then, with a spin, the skirt bloomed like flower petals, revealing her long, beautiful legs through the sheer fabric.

The most amazing thing was her last split, where she was almost touching the ground, yet she could still gracefully twist her waist.

Gwyneth was extremely jealous. She couldn't do any of those difficult poses, and what made her even more jealous was the undisguised admiration in Li Chen's eyes.

She knew that this woman would surely be baptized by holy light tonight.

Isabella sneered inwardly; these were her special skills, honed over many years, skills that even her husband Carlos had never seen.

After the dance, she picked up a cup of poisoned wine and said in a coquettish voice, "My lord, please allow me to offer you a toast."

Gwyneth immediately stepped in front of Li Chen and said, "You are not qualified to offer a toast."

The plan was thwarted, and Isabella gritted her teeth inwardly, but she also smiled and drank it herself.

Then, while changing clothes, she secretly swallowed the antidote and applied a specially made poison to her chest.

This poison would kill anyone who took it orally, so to be on the safe side, she also ate some.

Isabella planned to die together with Li Chen when he was having sex with her.

What she didn't know was that Li Chen was already immune to all poisons; this little trick couldn't harm him in the slightest. This was purely for his own enjoyment. Meanwhile, outside the manor, Carlos was already growing impatient.

Five hours passed, and the manor remained peaceful and quiet, showing no signs of chaos.

He paced anxiously, asking, "What happened? Did Madam make a mistake?"

Ultimately, he decided to sneak in and investigate himself.

With his peak Tianyuan Realm strength, he easily bypassed the guards and arrived near Li Chen's room.

As soon as he got close, he heard a familiar voice coming from inside, and Carlos's face instantly turned ashen.

Although he had prepared himself mentally, hearing it with his own ears still broke his heart.

He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his flesh.

"Who?"

Suddenly, a cold shout rang out like a thunderclap.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying pressure descended, and Carlos was instantly unable to move, as if he were being held down by an invisible giant hand.

"The Saintly Realm?!" He was utterly shocked.

What else could be capable of rendering a peak Heavenly Abyss Realm cultivator utterly powerless except a Saint Realm expert?
However, it is quite reasonable that the Papal Guard is at the Saint level, as there are many Saints in the Papacy.

Carlos, quick-witted, knelt down with difficulty: "My lord, spare my life! I am your follower and only wish to see you."

Inside the room, Li Chen rubbed his temples.

These believers are too crazy, they're even following their idols into the bedroom?
But if you're going to play the Pope's bodyguard, you have to play the whole thing.

"Wait here." He put on his bathrobe and winked at the shocked Isabella. "Get dressed."

When the guards arrived at the sound, they saw Li Chen already dressed and standing outside the door, with Isabella beside him, her face flushed but trying to appear calm.

"My lord, shall we?" The head guard made a throat-slitting gesture.

He had no idea what Carlos did.

Li Chen waved his hand: "Everyone, step back."

He turned to Carlos, who was kneeling on the ground: "Come with me."

In the living room, Carlos kept his head down, avoiding eye contact with his wife.

He suppressed his inner humiliation and put on the appearance of a fanatical believer: "Sir, I have long admired you and am a believer of the Church, but I have never had the opportunity to join the Church. I hope to be by your side and receive God's guidance."

Li Chen looked at him with a half-smile, and roughly understood what he meant.

According to intelligence gathering over the past few days, joining the Vatican is a dream for many people in this country, a way to change their social class and become a superior person; it's not simply a matter of having the ability to join.

The person in front of me probably wants to get close to me and secure a position in the Papacy.

If he refused, it would seem a bit cold. Anyway, he didn't really know anything about the 'work' inside the Holy See in the Eternal Day Empire. Right now, wasn't there a ready-made believer?
Taking him in would build our reputation and give us access to information about the Papacy.

So Li Chen said, "Seeing how devout you are, may the holy light shine upon you."

As he spoke, Li Chen gave him a trial period, which meant he would stay by his side as a bodyguard. If he performed well, he would be promoted; if he didn't, he would be fired.

Carlos immediately kowtowed and said gratefully, "Thank you for your appreciation, Lord Guard. I will swear to be loyal to you and the Holy See to the death."

Isabella, who was listening nearby, felt like she was going to vomit blood.

They clearly came to assassinate me! I've already been taken advantage of and forced to do this, and now my husband wants to be this bodyguard's dog?
But to avoid being exposed, she could only play along: "Sir, this believer is indeed very devout."

Carlos was incredibly frustrated. He had come to kill, but now he had to kneel before his enemy and act like a coward. His wife was right in front of him, but he had to pretend not to know her. What was most infuriating was that he had to fawn over the person in front of him. This was worse than being killed!
