Chapter 270 Healing the "Sin" of Demons, Resurrection Technique Exposed?
This sudden question left Soraka somewhat bewildered.

The Holy City came looking for them because of Qin Yu'er.

Why did Parthenon confront her and immediately interrogate her?
"Me? Guilty?"
“Indeed,” said the sage under the hood. “You set out from the Asian continent, traversing countless wastelands and city-states. We have received reliable intelligence that you have used healing magic on those bloodthirsty demons more than once along the way.”

"Have you ever considered that those ferocious creatures you saved out of momentary pity might invade human towns in the blink of an eye!"

"You possess such powerful healing abilities; this should have been a gift from heaven to save all living beings!"

"It should shine only for the pain and suffering of humankind! How... how can it go against its divine duty and waste this sacred power on those filthy, barbaric demons who are enemies of humankind?"

The sage continued his questioning, "Isn't this a grave sin of blasphemy and betrayal of human ethics?!"

"That's not how it is!" Before Soraka could respond, Qin Yu'er, who had been standing beside her, couldn't help but speak up.

She bravely faced the imposing sage, her voice firm: "You've misunderstood Sister Soraka! Yes, she did save some injured monsters on the road."

"But the number of humans she has saved far exceeds the number of monsters!"

"Traveling thousands of miles, how many civilians suffering from illness did she heal wherever she went? How many rampant plagues did she drive away?"

"How can we take her words out of context and accuse her of such a heavy crime simply because she has a sliver of compassion for the inhuman?!"

Qin Yu'er's words were resounding, revealing the true story of Soraka's journey.

However, the temple sage glanced at Qin Yu'er and said, "You are a 'heretic' who has been imprisoned by the Holy City, so your words are useless."

"And you should also be tried."

Qin Yu'er wanted to say something more, but Soraka stopped her.

Starting from the ancient capital of China, Soraka took Qin Yu'er on a journey across the continent.

They traversed scorched earth ravaged by war and demons, crossed sparsely populated wilderness, and lingered in bustling human towns.

Soraka rescued many people along the way and was called the "Goddess of the Stars" by them.

She only followed her heart when it came to deciding who to save and who not to save.

The Parthenon's sudden attack, the so-called "curing of the sins of demons," is nothing more than a high-sounding pretext.

Their target was not the demons, but Soraka herself.

They wanted to take Soraka back to the temple.

The root of it all can be traced back to that incredible rescue that took place not long ago in an inconspicuous little town on the Nordic border.

It was a gloomy afternoon.

Soraka and Qin Yu'er passed through a small town.

Even before stepping inside, a strong aura of death assaulted our senses.

The town was deathly silent, and the doors were tightly shut.

An unprecedented and extremely ferocious plague is raging in this area.

Like an invisible demon, it devoured many human lives in just a few days.

Seeing this, Soraka did not hesitate at all.

She stood in the city's central square, oblivious to the germs emanating from the air. Vast starlight surged from within her, instantly enveloping the entire desolate town!
The immense life energy, like a gentle tide, washes over every inch of land covered by the shadow of death, seeping into every house filled with despair.

Wherever the starlight reached, the plague toxins gradually dissolved, and the infected patients quickly healed.

Miracles are born in starlight.

The most shocking scene took place in a dilapidated wooden hut on the outskirts of town.

A heartbroken mother is tightly embracing her two children, who have already stopped breathing and whose bodies are cold and stiff, her eyes vacant.

Soraka saw it.

The "Resurrection Star" was used to rekindle the flame of life in the two children.

"They're alive! My children... they've come back to life! It's the Goddess of the Stars! The goddess saved them!"

Everyone in the small town was extremely grateful to Soraka!
This rescue completely changed their fate.

According to custom, in the event of a severe and rare plague, the Parthenon should send a high-ranking sage to resolve it.

Indeed, after receiving the urgent request for help, the temple dispatched a team led by a senior sage.

However, by the time they arrived, the plague had already been eradicated by Soraka.

The faces of the city dwellers were filled with the relief of surviving a disaster and an almost fanatical devotion.

They spread the news far and wide, describing the goddess of the stars with tears of gratitude.

She dispelled the disease with a wave of her hand, and... that defied common sense and brought the dead back to life!
The words "bringing the dead back to life" filled Parthenon and his ilk with a sense of panic!
"Resurrection" is no ordinary healing spell. This ability to reverse life and death is the ultimate core that allows the Parthenon to maintain its supreme status!

It is an unparalleled miracle that only a goddess who possesses the Parthenon heritage and has merged with the "divine soul" can touch!

This is the cornerstone of the temple's thousand-year heritage, a symbol of their divine authority that transcends worldly healing power and is worshipped by millions of believers!

Now, there is a "Goddess of the Stars" whose origins are unknown and who has never appeared in the temple genealogy.

How could they so "easily" perform a "resurrection spell" and bring back two ordinary children who had already "died"?
This news completely shook the nerves of the temple's leadership.

This is not simply a matter of a powerful healing mage appearing; it directly threatens the very foundation of the Parthenon's existence!
Where does her power come from?

What is the connection between this and the Parthenon tradition?
Does she possess a more complete and powerful law of life? Will she... overthrow the temple's millennia-old foundation?
Fear drives action.

After a brief emergency meeting, the temple's highest levels quickly reached a consensus: the news that the so-called Goddess of the Stars could perform resurrection magic must be completely blocked.

Their first step was to completely seal off the small town to prevent the news from leaking out.

The second step was to immediately send people to control this "Star Goddess"!
They took her back to the Parthenon and placed her under the temple's close surveillance and even control!
Find out her background, analyze her power, and if necessary... even eliminate the threat!
"Curing demons"—this seemingly respectable moral pretext is precisely the reason they carefully chose to explain their actions to the outside world.

Soraka didn't really care about the fact that she had used her resurrection spell to save the child.

Because this ability is not difficult for her.

At this time, she was unaware that Parthenon had come to cause her trouble because of this matter.

But when faced with the accusations leveled by the sage, Soraka gave a cold laugh and said, "What right do you have to convict me?"
