Although he knew that this would be the result, the Daur priest retorted,""Priest Mary, the Holy Book of Light doesn't say that a cripple can't join the Church of Light.”
"Humph, the Light Bible doesn't say anything, but your actions are undoubtedly adding to the Church's burden! Don't you know that the Church doesn't need rice worms?”Mary sneered and patted Qin Mufeng's head casually." Especially not this kind of weak-bodied rice worm who can't fight odd jobs!”
Daur replied impolitely under Mary's ridicule,""Mary, you're in charge of accepting apprentices, but I'm afraid it's not up to you to decide whether you can accept MCMAU's useless people as apprentices, right? Let's wait until I see the High Priest.”
"Meet the High Priest? Haha, Daur, how dare you say that! Let the High Priest see how much money you, Daur, have taken from them to send such a cripple to the Church!”Mary laughed maliciously. His laughter was short and cold, as if he had already caught Daur's weakness.
Qin Mufeng's mood was extremely gloomy as he sank into the anxiety of an uncertain future. He was even more furious when he was slapped on the head by the arrogant Mary. Qin Mufeng sneered and said,""My family didn't give a single coin to the Daur sacrifice! Could it be that you've taken money from the apprentices you took in before?”
Qin Mufeng's words made Marry shudder! He was right. Priest Mary really did take a lot of money. In the eyes of the apprentices of the Holy Brilliance Cathedral, this was a completely insatiable and greedy fellow. However, Mary was a priest who had been practicing for many years. After his face heated up, he reached out to grab the hand of the Daur priest and said angrily,"Daur, this time, I want to go with you to see High Priest Reese and let him see if you have taken his money!”
The Daur priest was old, and naturally could not compare to the young and strong Marry. In addition to the grievance in his heart, he also wanted to see High Priest Reese to prove his innocence. He immediately flung his sleeves and said coldly,"I can walk on my own. Don't pull me!”
Qin Mufeng looked at the two people who walked out one after the other and frowned. Although he did not care about joining the Church of Light, what happened today still made him feel a little lost. It would be fine if he didn't come, but once he did, he would have to be careful. This terrible association made it difficult for him to look at the decision to join the church in a happy mood. He was secretly worried as he followed the two out of the house.
The Holy Brilliance Cathedral was originally very quiet. Other than the sound of prayers, there was not a single noise to be heard. However, at this moment, the quarrel between Mary and Daur was like a stone thrown into the calm water, creating layers of ripples.
In just a moment, a large group of clergymen had gathered around Mary and Daur. However, most of them were dressed in the same clothes as Daur, so no one was there to judge them. Unlike Daur, who was an honest man, Mary looked around at his colleagues who were watching the show and immediately became spirited. He bewitched everyone and said,"Everyone, I want to meet High Priest Reese with Daur. I want him to see how much money Daur has taken from him to insist on throwing a MCMAU cripple into our church!”
As if a gust of wind had blown past, the originally cold and deserted church suddenly became like a tide of people. The priests discussed animatedly. Qin Mufeng looked at the priests who were like gossips on the streets and felt disgusted. He thought to himself, These priests are just so-so.
"What are you all doing here? Was this Holy Brilliance Cathedral a place to be noisy?”A priest in his fifties walked over with an angry voice. The priest was wearing a robe similar to the Daur's, but the three golden stars on the robe indicated his identity.
In the Church of Light, a 3-star High Priest was divided into three levels, be it an apprentice, a priest, or a High Priest. A three-star high priest was equivalent to a grade-8 expert. In the Holy Brilliance Cathedral, only High Priest Reese could wear a three-star high priest robe.
"Greetings, High Priest." Whether it was the priests who were watching the show, or Daur and Mary who were pulling at each other, they all said respectfully to High Priest Reese.
Qin Mufeng hid behind Daur and peeked at this priest who might decide his fate. However, his brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to absolve Daur.
High Priest Reese asked unhappily,""What's going on? Why are you all gathered here?”
The people who were watching the show naturally acted as if it had nothing to do with them. However, Priest Mary took the initiative and stepped forward, pointing at Daur.""High Priest, I was just about to find you to report something. The Daur priest has taken a lot of money from them and insisted on sending a useless MCMAU cripple to the church to eat! I think this kind of thing is really detrimental to the reputation of our church. I hope the high priest will investigate!”
Daur's expression was very ugly. He pointed at Mary with his finger. His eyes were filled with hatred, embarrassment, and even more helplessness. He looked particularly wooden and dull. The words that came out of his mouth were as thin as gossamer, but they were extremely angry. "High Priest, it's not like that…”Daur argued clumsily. However, other than repeating these two sentences, he could only mumble and say nothing else.
Seeing that Daur was so anxious that he couldn't speak, Qin Mufeng couldn't help but interject."Esteemed high priest, I can testify for the Daur priest. My family has never given a single gold coin to the Daur priest.”
High Priest Reese did not take their argument to heart. Instead, he looked at Qin Mufeng curiously and smiled."Can you prove it? What proof do you have?"
"Of course I can prove it. However, before I prove it, I would like to ask the High Priest, what are the requirements for the Church of Light to accept apprentices?”Qin Mufeng looked at the Daur priest indifferently as if he was looking at an ordinary person.
Priest Riser admired Qin Mufeng's calm demeanor and chuckled.""As long as you have a pious heart, even if your aptitude is average, you can still join the Church of Light.”
Upon hearing High Priest Reese's words, Qin Mufeng's anxious heart was relieved. A comforting smile appeared on his delicate face as he asked,""I have a devout heart. As for talent, I wonder how the number one genius Frey is?”
"Frey's number one genius? Of course, joining the Church of Light would not be a problem.”High Priest Reese said casually. As soon as he said that, High Priest Reese seemed to have thought of something. His eyes, which were initially closed, suddenly widened. He looked at Qin Mufeng's thin body and asked uncertainly,"Could it be that your surname is Qin?"
"Yes." Qin Mufeng replied indifferently.
