Chapter 756: Envoy of Light

Chapter 756: Envoy of Light

"Yeager, send this beautiful young human away," commanded the high priest.

The four-winged angel stepped forth and said, "Yes, high priest."

He stood before Huang Xiaoyue and said, "Beautiful young human, please leave the City of Light immediately."

He spoke with a tone that allowed no questions, not giving Huang Xiaoyue a chance to negotiate.

Huang Xiaoyue was unwilling to accept that. "He\'s really a swindler! You—"

"Enough. If you refuse to leave, don\'t blame us for being rough with you!" the four-winged angel snapped impatiently.

His powerful presence pressed down on Huang Xiaoyue and her guards. If they dared to say more, he would really make a move on them. The angels might be kind, but that did not mean they were without temper.

Huang Xiaoyue had not imagined that this would happen. After all, she had visited the City of Light multiple times and had obtained the angels\' friendship. Yet before Xiang Shaoyun, her friendship was so very shallow.

She glared at Xiang Shaoyun furiously, as if her eyes were going to spit out fire soon. Meanwhile, Xiang Shaoyun stood there with a calm smile, treating her with an utter indifference that made her feel even worse.

"Xiang Shaoyun, just you wait!" Huang Xiaoyue stomped her foot in anger before turning and leaving with her people.

"Alright. Child of Light, let us go," the high priest invited.

Xiang Shaoyun nodded and entered the tower with the high priest. Once again, he arrived at the castle within the tower. About a dozen four-winged angels were waiting in formation as they saluted him, "Greetings, high priest and the Child of Light."

These were the powerful angels responsible for guarding the castle.

"Rise," Xiang Shaoyun said in a composed manner. A confident and calm smile hung on his face. The panic he had when he had come before was nowhere to be seen, as though he had completely forgotten those unpleasant memories.

Bringing Xiang Shaoyun along, the priest entered the castle. Inside, there were only the two of them.

Gesturing for Xiang Shaoyun to take a seat, the high priest ordered the other angels to serve some refreshments before he said, "Child of Light, please forgive me for the offense I committed previously."

The high priest was the strongest expert among the angels, yet he was actually apologizing to Xiang Shaoyun. If news of this spread, it would shock many people.

Xiang Shaoyun replied, "Don\'t worry about it, high priest. Like I said, without the purification, I wouldn\'t have gotten the chance to cleanse the evil within me, transforming into the Child of Light. In fact, I need to thank you for that."

"It\'s good that the Child of Light understands." The high priest heaved a breath of relief. "Child of Light, you honor the angels with your presence. I beseech that you become our Envoy of Light."

After saying that, he saluted Xiang Shaoyun again, expressing his sincerity.

"Envoy of Light? Is there any special meaning to that?" Xiang Shaoyun asked in confusion.

"Child of Light, you must have seen the human statue outside the castle. That is the first Envoy of Light, the one who had protected us from extinction. Therefore, we erected a statue of him for us to forever worship his glorious accomplishments," said the high priest. "Now, the angels are weak. We are unable to regain our past glory, and if a major war happens again, it is unlikely we will survive. Child of Light, your arrival has shown us hope. Only by having you as our Envoy of Light will the angels be able to survive."

"High priest, you overestimate me. You know very well what my current strength is. I am much weaker than even a four-winged angel. How can I become your Envoy of Light?" Xiang Shaoyun humbly rejected.

"But your strength won\'t remain the same. In the future, you will definitely surpass me! Otherwise, you wouldn\'t be the Child of Light!" said the high priest with utmost devotion. "Child of Light, there is a saying among the angels that neither a Child of Wisdom nor a Child of Luck will be troubled by any difficulty. They are a pet of the heavens sent to the mortal world."

After saying that, the high priest gave Xiang Shaoyun a deep gaze, as though he could see through Xiang Shaoyun\'s body.

Meeting the high priest\'s gaze, Xiang Shaoyun smiled. "Haha, since the high priest has such high expectations on me, I shall accept this honorable position."

He knew very well the high priest was not a blind believer like the other angels. Instead, he intentionally pointed out the word "wisdom," hinting that he was merely the Child of Light due to the "wisdom" talent he had awakened. If he refused the request, he would immediately be demoted back into a devil.

Xiang Shaoyun understood the hidden meaning behind the high priest\'s words, so he agreed with no hesitation. Inwardly, he cursed, What an old fox!

"Thank you, Child of Light. I\'ll get someone to prepare the appointment ceremony immediately," said the high priest with a cheery laugh.

"There\'s no rush, right? Tell me about the duties of an Envoy of Light first. You know, I won\'t be able to stay here forever," said Xiang Shaoyun.

"Haha, I was too happy and forgot all about it. Let me first tell you about the Envoy of Light\'s duties, then," said the high priest as he started his explanation.

The so-called Envoy of Light was akin to a sect\'s external elder. One did not have to stay in the city all the time, and one only needed to help when the angels were in a crisis. The Envoy of Light would also enjoy the City of Light\'s cultivation resources and could deploy the angels when requiring help. One could say that this was a relationship of mutual benefit.

"So simple?" Xiang Shaoyun asked.

"Yes. But I have a premonition that the angels will encounter a calamity in the future. At that time, we will require your help, Child of Light."

The high priest spoke solemnly, making it clear he was not joking. With the Light of Wisdom, Xiang Shaoyun could see that the final sentence was the main point the high priest was trying to get across.

As an Envoy of Light, he did not have any duties and could even enjoy the help of the angels. But in the event of any crisis, he had to help.

Since it was not like he had a choice, he promised solemnly, "Ok. If a crisis befalls the angels, I will do my best to help."

The high priest laughed, "Good, that\'s good to hear. I\'ll get them to prepare the ceremony."

He called the four-winged angel over and told him to clear all the foreigners from the city before gathering all the angels. Three days later, they would hold the appointment ceremony of the Envoy of Light.
