CHAPTER 722: CHAPTER 201 LEGACY AND ENTRUSTMENT (REQUESTING MONTHLY VOTES)_2

But the frustration only lasted for a moment before it was overwhelmed by Xu Shu’s surging malice.

"Damn Su Ji dares to pass the pollution onto me, I’ll definitely settle this score with her later!"

"But no matter who plotted against her, the root of the matter is the deceitful Esoteric Buddhism! The whole plan was schemed by them, and whoever plotted against me is definitely one of them."

"Esoteric Buddhism must be killed, there is no other choice! From now on, I will kill every Esoteric believer I see, otherwise my heart won’t be clear!"

Xu Shu quickly convinced himself, no longer annoyed or depressed, replaced by a strong desire to kill and a surge of spirit.

He had always been this way, any mental pressure that came his way wouldn’t lead to self-seclusion, but rather spurred a stronger fighting spirit, that was Xu Shu’s courage.

At that moment, he even felt his Second-Order Curse Seal "Iron Armor" faintly stirring, as if about to comprehend some special ability.

After calming down for a moment, the trembling gradually subsided.

"Strange, I haven’t leveled up, so why does the Curse Seal feel trembly?"

"Could it be you don’t need to level up to break through, to have a sudden realization and gain a unique skill?"

"Unfortunately, it seems like I just missed that opportunity..."

Xu Shu shook his head and decided to put the issue to the back of his mind for now.

Master Han said he had three things to tell me, as his last will, I need to see what they are.

But there are only two pages of the credible paper, all read, where is the will?

Xu Shu picked up the letter and flipped through it, finding neither a hidden compartment nor a password written in the corner.

It couldn’t be that Yu Mingluan wrote up to here and then died, so he didn’t have a chance to leave his last words, could it?

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Shu tried picking up the "Holy Word Book" and pressed it against the letter again, and a small flame sprouted out, burning the envelope to ashes.

Among the sparks, lines of text came together, manifesting briefly but succinctly, fleeting, yet Xu Shu seized the chance and read them thoroughly.

"The first thing, based on the information you provided, the Esoteric Buddhism’s attack plan will be executed ahead of schedule tomorrow, I have no chance to stop it, but if you have the strength, you can assist Bai Sanxiang’s actions, trying to minimize the destruction they cause."

After reading the first item, Xu Shu nodded.

This was exactly what he was prepared to do; even if the bishop didn’t mention it, he could never coexist with the Cult.

"The second thing, the ’Holy Word Book’ is a symbol of a church bishop, I’m leaving this church to you, the position of bishop for zone D8B3, will be yours to take over."

Reading this, Xu Shu was first confused, then understood why the foreigner from the Western War Zone showed such a surprised expression upon seeing his Holy Word Book.

What, me becoming a bishop of the Dawn Church?

Xu Shu was somewhat speechless, thinking Yu Mingluan’s decision was a bit too frivolous—I don’t even believe in your god!

I can’t promise this; I’ll find a chance to refuse when possible. It’s not that Xu Shu isn’t ambitious; the thought of preaching to the congregation and engaging in brainwashing activities daily was just too overwhelming. This wasn’t his strength.

Unless he could hold the title without doing the work.

"The third thing, although Alice may seem mature, she’s still a child who’s naive and doesn’t quite understand the rules, I hope you will treat her kindly."

Xu Shu’s mouth twitched.

Well, he really did leave a final duty!

But this description, why does it feel like Alice isn’t the bishop’s wife, but more like his daughter?

But why did he start with such a relatively flippant tone, describing his own daughter?

Xu Shu didn’t think much of it; he had already agreed to this matter earlier, so it didn’t add much to his tasks—merely that he would look after her should any issues arise.

The flame slowly extinguished, revealing the last sentence:

"May the Lord protect you."

With the ashes dissipated, everything Yu Mingluan left behind became a thing of the past, turned into relics.

"Alas! Archbishop, may your journey be peaceful!"

In a proper manner, Xu Shu picked up what looked like an expensive White Jade Wine Jug from the shelf beside his chest, opened it carelessly, and poured all the blood-like crimson liquid inside onto the ashes on the ground, as a send-off for Yu Mingluan.

After all this, he adjusted his mentality slightly and sorted out his thoughts before walking towards the door through which Bai Sanxiang had left earlier, and knocked.

Bai Sanxiang walked in with the flow, taking in the remaining scent of char in the air: "Burnt the letter?"

"Yes." Xu Shu nodded.

"Any news?" Bai Sanxiang asked.

Xu Shu had already drafted his response in his mind, and straightforwardly said, "Yes."

"What news?" Bai Sanxiang inquired.

Xu Shu said, "There’s an inner traitor, be careful."

Bai Sanxiang raised his eyebrows: "Who?"

"I do not know, the bishop didn’t know either, but such a person definitely exists, and certainly holds a position of power and influence. By the way, chief, do you know about Song Nanshou from the Song Family’s betrayal?"

"I know, he told me. If the traitor is only at the level of Song Nanshou, it’s not worth Old Yu’s mention, hm! No wonder he died so abruptly... I’m informed! I’ll ask Master Han to come forward to personally root out that traitor!" Bai Sanxiang’s face instantly darkened.

Master Han?

With the surname Han, and Bai Sanxiang speaking of him with respect, Xu Shu pondered for a moment and guessed who he might be.

One of the wardens in the safe zone, Han Mo!

This man had once come to seek information from him about a Fourth-Order Monster; he was a Fourth Realm Demigod Level strongman, an "Astrologer"!
