Choosing one out of the five is always the simpler one, and among them, the sisters Feng and Ling were accepted as his apprentices, Dongfang Xiao is silly and has her own ambitions, and as for Qin Yiyan, if she hadn't come to Xu Shi to show off, Boss Xu would not have directly put her in the position of a silly girl.

From this perspective, it is obvious that the mysterious saint lady wearing a veil is the most suspicious.

So when he saw her for the first time, Xu Shi immediately found Xia Ke'an and told her to check this guy's background when she had time.

To sum it up in one sentence, your veil exposes you!

Seeing the master's confident look, Pan Ling blinked.

……wrong.

After all, she was learning skills from Xu Shi, so she was the first to realize that things were definitely not as simple as her master said.

It's right to be skeptical, but this analysis isn't perfect.

Who says that a silly girl can't be the boss behind the scenes? Isn't the right thing to do to suspect everyone equally?

So, the truth is actually...

Before she could figure out what was going on, Xu Shi's gaze turned over.

There's no good in knowing too much, so shut your little pig mouth.

That’s right, the process of finding out the “Tianli” traitor among the crowd was actually a little different from what he said.

The real fact is that he didn't let any of these people go, and if he wanted to investigate, he should have checked them all one by one.

Anyway, the old lady doesn’t have to worry about the complications now. There is not much difference between checking one and checking five.

However, it is true that Miss Saint was identified at once, because she was indeed the most suspicious in Xu Shi's mind, and she would definitely be the first one to be investigated.

Then, the shot hit.

And this is not the end of the investigation of the internal traitor. Who stipulated that there can only be one "supervisor"? What if all five of them are involved? We must investigate and not let any of them go.

I'll just check it out!

The analysis just now was nothing more than ranking the list of suspects.

Fortunately, the final result was that except for Miss Saint, everyone else was really innocent and clean, which undoubtedly reduced a lot of difficulty for Xu Shi's work.

It is always easier to plot against one person than against a group of people.

As for why we need to do some artistic processing... Isn't that nonsense? The value of a final decision is definitely higher than "I followed the process step by step with a plug-in", right?

Although I am a villain, I still have to save face. No matter how bad my image is, I have to maintain it all the time. Otherwise, how can I have the dignity of a teacher?

The silly disciple silently complained in his heart, you old man still have that kind of thing?

And she finally realized why her master had never agreed to cooperate with the Vatican. Although she didn't quite understand what "natural justice" was, she could guess from the serious expressions of the others that there was definitely a big conflict between the two parties.

……and many more.

Doesn't this mean that the little sister really knows why? How can such a thing be done without her help?

OK, so you were lying to me before!

The poor silly apprentice was played around by the junior sister and the bad master.mp4

Even though she could understand that this was for the sake of confidentiality and that the concealment was not necessarily directed only at herself, she was still a little unhappy.

snort!

But even though she complained, she would definitely not say it out loud. Anyway, the result didn't matter. Let the bad master do whatever he wants. (Spreading hands)

And this does make it easier for the opponent to break through the defense, and she still knows what is important and what is not.

The other girls also looked solemn.

The fact is that Xu Shi never told them, and the answer was not revealed until this moment.

But they are all very clear about matters of "natural justice", and overthrowing this organization is everyone's common wish.

Who would want to return to darkness after seeing the light? No one wants to have a sword of Damocles hanging over their head forever.

Therefore, when the truth came to light, they became more resolute.

Well, now we have a reason to eliminate the Vatican.

In comparison, the Vatican is not having such an easy time.

They only understood half of the conversation between Xu Shi and the Holy Maiden of the Vatican, but they couldn't piece together anything useful based on this little information.

But one thing is certain - the Saint whom they respect has some unknown secrets and is probably working as a dog for some other organization.

"Your Highness, you..."

The one who was most vulnerable was of course Qin Yiyan. After all, she had been with Miss Saint for the longest time. When she was a child, she was a nun serving her, and now she was the sharpest sword in her hand.

In addition to the normal master-servant relationship, there is also a bond between the two similar to that of family members.

She herself is an orphan, so she naturally cherishes this hard-earned relationship. Until now, the most precious memory for her is probably the time when Her Highness the Saint pulled her clothes when she was a child and ignorantly called her "sister".

Even now, she could feel that Her Highness the Saint treated her differently from how she treated others.

Therefore, no matter what, she could not have imagined that the other party actually had an unknown secret, and it was a secret that seemed not so glorious.

When did this stranger start talking about this?

Or in other words, is the Saint in front of me really the same Saint who I watched grow up?

If not, then what is all this...

Once you start to associate some things, you can't stop them, and her face became paler and paler.

It seemed as if something deep inside me collapsed.

The others are not much better. Maybe they don't have such deep feelings for Her Highness the Saint, but she is the spiritual leader of the Holy See after all. Now you tell them that she is still serving someone else?

To make an analogy, it is like the affair between Xu Shi and Dongfang Xiao being exposed. In the Hualan Empire where the monarchy and theocracy are deeply rooted, who can accept it?

"Oh, did what I said hurt you?"

Seeing that everyone present looked like they were about to die, Xu Shi pretended to be in a daze and continued to criticize them with an apologetic look, "Then your psychological endurance is too poor, isn't it?"

Of course, the purpose of revealing the explosive information at this point was to shake the other side's morale, and this happened to be what he was best at.

Under the silent influence of "Evil Thoughts Entropy Increase", some of the weak-minded scabby present even rolled their eyes and fainted.

But it's not over.

"Your pope is so steadfast. Look, I've said so much, but he didn't react at all."

It would be fine if I didn't mention this, but once I did, others would realize this blind spot belatedly.

From the time they attacked the church until now, their Pope has just been standing here quietly, not saying a word, and even his expression hasn't changed at all!

This is certainly not because his heart is as solid as a rock, but because there is something wrong with him!

It was obvious that it was their problematic saint who manipulated it into a puppet, a puppet in the physical sense!

"No wonder I always felt something was wrong. It turns out..."

Lu Baiyan murmured, and many details emerged in his mind.

Generally speaking, the two leaders of the Holy See have different focuses. The saint is more of a spiritual leader, while the pope focuses more on making decisions.

But in recent years, the Pope has been old and living in seclusion behind the scenes, and most affairs are handled by the Saint. The Pope only appears in major events, such as conquering the God of the Sea, winning over Xu Shi, and the recent decisive battle with the Cat Cult.

However, the decisions he made seemed more like a summary and continuation of the "suggestions" of Miss Saint, with a feeling of singing the same tune.

If you think about it more carefully, there is also stiffness in his words and actions, and sometimes even a little slow.

In the past, he just thought that the Pope was old, but now he can no longer fail to see what is really going on!

His heart suddenly felt a little colder - so since some time ago, the entire Holy See has been completely controlled by this problematic saint, right?

So what exactly is it that they believe in and are loyal to?

Thinking of this, almost everyone looked at Miss Saint, hoping to get an explanation.

"...Don't be deceived by the words of outsiders, everyone."

Being stared at by everyone, Miss Saint's expression returned to calmness. "We are compatriots who are blessed by God. Are you more willing to trust an outsider?"

"Don't forget, he is our enemy."

This explanation is really a bit weak. After all, she just admitted it without asking, and it was not Xu Shi who unilaterally shaken the morale of the army here.

But this sentence still inspired many people, because what she said was not wrong.

Xu Shi didn't tell them the truth just to be a good person, his purpose was to expose all the people in the Vatican.

This core will not change. Are you going to turn against us?

Turning a blind eye seems to be the better option.

“…Fight for the Holy See!”

Luo Yu, who had one arm broken, was the first to shout out. He might be the person who cared the least about these twists and turns.

After all, the conflict between him and Xu Shijian was irreconcilable, and he just wanted Xu Shijian to die.

"Fight for the Holy See!"

Others followed suit, but their slogans were not so uniform.

It can be seen that the amount of information received in a short period of time is too great, and not everyone can convince themselves easily.

But this was enough for the Saint Lady, and her tense expression relaxed a little.

"One word?"

She looked at Qin Yiyan, who was full of confusion.

"…Fight for the Holy See."

Qin Yiyan seemed to be a little distracted. When he heard her call, he subconsciously steadied his body and gripped the sword again.

Yes, Her Highness the Saint is right. The most urgent task is to resolve the external threat, and other things can be discussed later.

However, Her Highness the Saint...

In a trance, she suddenly felt her thoughts come to an abrupt halt.

The next second, she found her body moving uncontrollably.

"You...seem to be shaken."
