Chapter 60: Sword Pointed at Holy Spirit Church

"One time when they weren't paying attention, I quietly approached the place where my parents' souls were imprisoned and heard their voices. Only then did I know the process of my family's destruction..."

"When mom went to the Soul Beast Forest to hunt for soul beasts, she met the people of the Holy Spirit Church. Because of her special martial spirit, they asked mom to join, but she refused. Our family's nightmare began from then on. Even mom herself didn't know how she was controlled by them. They forced her to join the Holy Spirit Church and she couldn't control her body to help them complete various tasks..."

"But because of her love for us, Mom often got out of control. They ordered Mom to kill Dad. After Mom killed Dad, she was greatly stimulated and finally broke free from their control. She committed suicide in front of Dad's body. Mom said that the thing she regretted most at the time was that she couldn't save me. She asked me to stop caring about them and to break free from the control of the Holy Spirit Church, otherwise I would only be their tool for the rest of my life."

Nana's lips trembled with excitement, tears flowing uncontrollably: "But how can I leave? Seeing my parents' souls suffering after death, I really hate myself for not being able to save them..."

"How do you want me to help you?" Lu Xueling asked in a deep voice with more determination in his voice after hearing this.

He now recalled his first impression of the Holy Spirit Church. No matter what, this damn place must be destroyed!

Nana wiped her tears again and said in a trembling voice, "I was too impulsive. I shouldn't have come to you. I don't know how powerful the Holy Spirit Church is or what they do. If I rashly ask for your help, I'm afraid I will implicate you... and..."

"Moreover, Mingdetang and even the Sun-Moon Empire have colluded with the Holy Spirit Church, right?" Lu Xueling finished expressing her concerns for her.

Nana's pupils shrank slightly: "You, you know? Oh, right... you are the deputy hall master, you should know this..."

Lu Xueling chuckled and shook his finger: "You misunderstood. As for how I know these things, I can't tell you. Anyway, I will help you. Of course, you must promise me three things."

Nana raised her head abruptly and looked at Lu Xueling, her eyes filled with determination: "I hate the Holy Spirit Church, I hate this academy, and I even hate this country that harbors so much filth. Deputy Hall Master, as long as you can help me release the souls of my parents, I will be willing to be a slave or a maid in the future!"

"Ahem, there's no need to be a slave or a maid." Lu Xueling coughed twice. "Let's talk about the first thing first. In two months, my newly developed set of mass-produced Valkyrie armor will be released. I want you to be the first person to try it on."

"No problem!" Nana nodded seriously.

"Secondly, after I have dealt with your parents' problem, I will take over the place you mentioned. This matter cannot be discovered by anyone except Xilin and Bella, including the Master of Jing Hongchen Hall."

can do!"

Lu Xueling finally extended his third finger, "One last thing. The specific content is not convenient to disclose now, but first of all, you must be prepared to become an enemy of Shrek Academy."

“…Okay!!” Nana’s hesitation only lasted half a second.

She has long been alone. If Lu Xueling can really do it, then he is the savior of their family. So what if she works for him? !
[Douluo Star native, sixth-level soul mentor, Nana, loyalty 65%]

Lu Xueling was a little surprised. He didn't expect this little girl to be so decisive. "Actually, I'm curious, why do you trust me so much? I've only met you once, and I'm even the deputy head of Mingde Hall?"

Nana stared at him with red and swollen eyes: "Just based on your ability to create such a powerful creature, and my own intuition. I can't stand this oppressive life anymore. I have no desire to live in this world. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I will fight! I have seen the power called Honkai energy, which is a hundred times more powerful than soul power."

"You know what? When I signed up for the Crimson Armor test, I was really looking forward to it. If I could master this equipment, I could rescue my parents even if I was alone. But the truth is so cruel. I failed... But I really don't want to give up. My intuition tells me that if I miss this chance, there will be no chance again!!"

"I have nothing to give you in return, only me. I mean what I say. As long as you can save my parents' souls and free them from suffering, I will be willing to do anything you want me to do in the future."

Lu Xueling nodded slightly: "Well, you can tell me the enemy's intelligence now."

Nana sat down immediately and said seriously, "According to my understanding, the Holy Spirit Church is a very mysterious organization. I have only been in contact with one of their branches. There are about twenty people in Mingdu, but there are only three or four core members. The rest are mostly peripheral members. But even these peripheral members have the cultivation level of Soul Sect."

"There are very few soul mentors in this Holy Spirit Church. Almost all of them are soul masters. The most powerful core member I have ever seen is probably at the level of a seven-ring soul saint. Even though he only has seven rings, he gives me a feeling of being unfathomable."

"In this branch, the Seven-ring Soul Saint I mentioned is called an elder. The other core members are called Holy Spirit disciples. The peripheral members are called Holy Servants. I am also a Holy Servants now. Every time we go to the branch, we must cover our appearance first. This means that even if we Holy Servants meet each other in normal times, it is difficult for us to recognize each other. Only the elders know our appearance."

"Then where are your parents' souls sealed?" Lu Xueling interrupted.

"In the altar of the branch. That place is very strange. Every time I go there, I can feel the eerie atmosphere. And the souls sealed there are not only my parents, but also many other souls."

Snapped!
Lu Xueling snapped his fingers and said, "Okay, it's settled. We'll take action tomorrow night. Go make preparations."

Nana said, "Huh?" "You don't need my help in disguise or hiding..."

Lurking?

Lu Xueling curled the corner of his mouth slightly, without any explanation, he just asked Nana to go back quickly to rest and replenish her energy.

Immediately, he turned around and looked at Youlan, who was still training hard in the crimson armor, with a sharp gleam hidden in his eyes.

"It's time for the first actual combat of the Valkyrie Armor. Holy Spirit Church... I'll use you to make the first move."
