Lan Jue went on. "I have a backup plan. From what Little Yue told me, Sariel is different from the other Archangels. Her Discipline is called Primal Light.
In other words, she can't do anything that goes against her heart. If she does, her Discipline will fall, and she'll go insane. "
Zhou Qianlin's voice was a little disgruntled. "Why are you always so secretive?
What's your backup plan? "
Lan Jue smirked. "The backup plan is Raphael!
She's in our hands. Even if Sariel betrays Little Yue, the Pontiff and the rest of the Citadel will capture us.
But they can't just ignore the Angel of Healing, can they?
Besides, Skyfire Avenue is strong, and I'm a member of the Skyfire Avenue Council. If we don't cause them any real damage, they'll just send a message to Skyfire Avenue. When that happens, we'll have to wait for the Wine Master or the Keeper to come and save us.
We won't be in too much danger.
How else would I have brought you into the tiger's den? "
Zhou Qianlin relaxed a little at his analysis. She smiled. "You're quite observant. Why didn't I see it before?"
Lan Jue's smile was bitter. "I had no choice.
Even if we could save Little Yue, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to return to the Moonfiend Pirates.
She was able to gain a foothold in the Moonfiend Pirates because of her strength.
If the Pontiff's Citadel managed to capture her, it means they have control of the pirates. "
Zhou Qianlin glared at him. "Then you took her home, didn't you?"
"Ahem.
I can't just sit back and watch her die!
You heard Sariel, they're trying to strip Little Yue of her Discipline.
The Pontiff's Citadel's Discipline is a combination of inherited techniques and genetica. Once it's taken away, Little Yue's life will be in danger.
As for the pirates …
If they can't be controlled, then they'll have to be exterminated.
That's where I've prepared the A.R.C. class for the future. Only through constant combat will they mature. "
Zhou Qianlin didn't say anything else and looked out of the window.
Lan Jue suddenly grabbed her arm.
He pulled her in front of him.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Qianlin was shocked.
Lan Jue smiled strangely. "Follow Granny Bess's instructions!
We didn't cultivate last night, so we have to hurry up and improve our strength. "
As he spoke, he didn't wait for Qianlin to object, and kissed her.
Her warm lips were very soft, but before he could savor them in detail …
Zhou Qianlin had already turned into a stream of light and disappeared into his body.
The feeling of a rapid increase in ability was always so refreshing, but on the other hand, when Zhou Qianlin separated from his body, he was also very disappointed.
Soon, Lan Jue's Arcana was upgraded to Level 9, Rank 9.
He sat cross-legged on the ground.
Closing his eyes, he began to meditate.
His and Zhou Qianlin's fusion was so complete that he couldn't even feel the existence of a foreign energy. It was as if his Arcana had been upgraded to another level, but he could still feel Zhou Qianlin's thoughts.
They didn't need the Soulcaller gem to communicate with each other through their minds.
Within his soul, the Arrow of Kindness emitted a faint white halo, allowing Lan Jue to quickly focus his mind.
The energy in his body quietly connected with the Qi of Heaven and Earth.
Lan Jue had only just begun to meditate, but he could already feel the benefits of being a part of his body.
Level 9, Rank 9 had more than double the energy of a level 9, Rank 7. The source was stronger.
It made the absorption even stronger.
His perception of the Qi of Heaven and Earth naturally became stronger. Just one cycle was equivalent to cultivating twice as long as usual.
More importantly, in this state, his perception of heaven and earth became much clearer, and he could better sense the existence of the laws of heaven and earth.
The enlarged energy core emitted a strong electric glow.
Only the white halo around it was faintly discernible.
What Lan Jue could feel, so could Zhou Qianlin.
And because their minds were connected.
There was a mysterious feeling in the unseen world. When the other party comprehended something, he felt a sense of mystery.
They could feel the feeling of enlightenment at the first moment.
When the two of them cultivated, they were two individuals, but also a whole.
It was as if they were constantly verifying each other's cultivation experience and gains. This way, their experience would naturally become more profound.
Zhou Qianlin, of course, had more of an advantage. After all, her cultivation was weaker than Lan Jue's, but when it came to feeling the Power of Law, she had her own. After all, the Queen of Heaven Transformation was also the Power of Law!
And perhaps because of the complete dedication and sacrifice, the purity of the Power of Law even surpassed Lan Jue's understanding of the King of God Transformation.
Although Qianlin had an advantage in general cultivation, she was a great help to Lan Jue when it came to understanding protogenia. She helped him understand the different types of protogenia that existed in the Paragons.
Time always passed quickly during cultivation. When Lan Jue woke up from meditation, it was already the next morning. After a day and night of cultivation, neither of them ate or drank. But when it was over, their bodies felt bloated.
Their abilities didn't improve in the slightest. After all, they were already at the peak of level 9 in the fusion state. But Lan Jue could clearly feel the changes in her body.
Of course, Zhou Qianlin had benefited a lot from Lan Jue's lightning ability.
She didn't know how to fight in the past, so she naturally didn't know much about the control of this combat type of ability.
But as she cultivated with Lan Jue, she felt the changes and trajectory of the lightning ability under Lan Jue's control, which was undoubtedly a great inspiration for her.
But Lan Jue also discovered the wonders of Zhou Qianlin's Silkworm Thousand Arts ability. Her ability had an excellent nourishing effect on the human body.
After a day and night of cultivation, Lan Jue could clearly feel his muscles, bones, and even internal organs were indescribably comfortable.
His body's endurance was obviously stronger than before.
This meant that his body could withstand more energy.
However, the awkwardness after cultivation still appeared. Lan Jue closed his eyes and directly separated Zhou Qianlin from the bed.
Zhou Qianlin took the opportunity to burrow into the quilt.
Lan Jue chuckled. "Qianlin, next time, why don't you just take off your clothes and do it under the quilt? I'll kiss you and you'll merge into my body. That way, we can save a set of clothes, right?"
Zhou Qianlin glared at him, her pretty face blushing. "Go to the corner and face the wall. I want to take a shower!"
Lan Jue laughed and did as she said. As time passed, he had now somewhat adapted to the current situation.
Although he had developed a certain dependence on Zhou Qianlin, he could only fully exert his strength when the two of them were together.
But at the same time, because they would merge their bodies as long as they were intimate, it made it impossible for him to really do anything to Zhou Qianlin. This also made him feel relieved, and he wasn't afraid that he couldn't control himself.
Charlie was reliable. Her Self Light ability prevented her from betraying her heart.
Lan Jue had what he wanted.
Afterwards, Lan Jue took Zhou Qianlin out for a stroll through the Holy City. They bought a few things as they went.
"Why are you buying so many wires?" Zhou Qianlin asked.
Lan Jue replied. "To escape, of course.
It's impossible to save Little Yue.
She's in the Cathedral, and the Pontiff's psychic powers are strong enough to cover the entire place. The moment he notices the ritual to strip Little Yue of her Discipline has been interrupted, he'll appear right in front of us.
When that happens, he'll seal off the entire area.
Trying to escape will be as difficult as scaling the heavens.
So we'll have to resort to some old-fashioned methods.
Besides, now's not the time to save Little Yue. We have other things to do first.
We need to lure the Pontiff out of the Citadel.
Moreover, we can't let them guess what our real objective is. "
Night had fallen, and the Cathedral had closed its doors to the public.
Every day, at sunset, the Cathedral closed its doors to the public.
"Leave at once. The Cathedral is closed!"
A melodious female voice echoed through the Cathedral, reminding all the worshippers in the church of Reims.
There were also people assigned to guide them away.
But no one noticed that in a corner, two worshippers vanished without a trace.
There was a flash of light, and two figures appeared in a pitch-black room.
It was a room filled with junk, and there was no light. With Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin's senses, they didn't need to use their eyes to see.
"What we're about to do is going to be dangerous. We'll have to give it our all.
Let me kiss you?
Oh, I can't see from here. Why don't you take off your clothes? "Lan Jue asked Zhou Qianlin through the Soulcaller gem.
Zhou Qianlin snorted. She cupped his face with both hands and kissed him.
There was a flash of light, and she disappeared into Lan Jue's body.
A faint blue glow emerged from Lan Jue's body. It was the power of the sudden increase in power.
The day and night of cultivation had not been in vain. Lan Jue's control over the power of the fusion was becoming more and more proficient.
He quietly pushed the door open. He'd changed into a long white robe, and a cloak over his head. He walked deeper into the Cathedral.
Along the way, he ran into a few clergymen, but no one came up to ask questions. This was the Cathedral of Reims. With the Pope here, the clergymen were used to the safety of the place.
Turning left and right, Lan Jue came to a large door. Two clergymen stood guard at the door. They stood ramrod straight, their eyes calm. They were dedicated to their work.
