Chapter 28 Baptism

  "A villager from a small village, 22 years ago, Shawn indeed passed through that village, but Mercedes VII also passed through! Hard to say..."

  Marquis Panson sneered coldly: "Our actions were twenty years ago. If it was the Mercedes breed, it must be him!"

  The right face was expressionless and said calmly: "Let's wait and see, at this critical moment, don't scare the snake away, after the big thing is done, this evil count will still be killed."

  Marquis Panson nodded and said, "I'm curious, why did Mercedes VII ask this country bumpkin to preside over the promotion ceremony of Duke Evier?"

  The right minister's gaze narrowed to the wine cup, and he sneered: "A country bumpkin presiding over the eighth-level promotion ceremony of the Mercedes Seventh, it's really surprising that Mercedes Seventh thought of it! The devotion of Grand Duke Evill is sure to be promoted to the ninth-level ceremony! Haha, it seems that he can't wait to give Li Xie a meritorious achievement and let him advance in rank!"

  Tudor Palace, Bay Window

  Mercedes VII stood with Zuo Xiang at the edge of the railing, gazing up at the Tower of Eternity.

  "Has everything been arranged for Viscount Evil's background?" Mercedes VII said calmly.

  "Is that so, Hari? Lord Intyre's gaze was as calm as still water: 'It has all been arranged. The villagers of Karris Desert were killed in a sandstorm, their village destroyed. Our Lord grew up in a small village and Your Majesty and Shawn both passed through that village many years ago.'"

  Mercedes VII was taken aback: "Even I'm being dragged into this?" He then smiled wryly: "Prime Minister Zuo is indeed a cunning old fox!"

  "It is an old and deep plan, Your Majesty."

  "This will bring about the Marquis of Evil's downfall!"

  "No, this is to protect him. Before the big thing, Lord Right and Marquis Panseng will not move him! Otherwise, our evil Earl's momentum would be too great, and he might suddenly die violently."

  "Speaking of windfall, tsk... " Mercedes VII smiled: "In just two months, he's raked in so much wealth. If he weren't a god incarnate, I'd have him be the Minister of Finance!"

  Zuo Xiang remained as calm as water: "This time, let him preside over the ceremony, it is to see with our own eyes whether he can bring about a divine sign! The devotion of Grand Duchess Aiwier is not in doubt, she must be able to advance to the ninth rank of priestess. When the divine light descends, if Viscount Evil is indeed a divine vessel, there is a high possibility that it will trigger a divine sign. Even if no divine sign is triggered, the descending divine light under the traction of the divine vessel will still be more than usual, and we can confirm it."

  "Aren't you afraid of others' speculation?"

  "Haha……" The left prime minister smiled slightly: "Our Princess Avel's kindness is known throughout the country, her piety moves heaven and earth, a miracle has descended, it is the gift of the goddess of life to the most pure, true, good and beautiful believer, and has nothing to do with that rustic, Your Majesty, you say yes?"

  "Haha! Old cunning fox!"

  "It is an old and deep plan, Your Majesty."

  At the top of the Tower of Eternity, Li Xie and his group had already reached the top. Under Li Xie's blessing, the twelve young priests who were chosen went down from the Tower of Eternity, leaving only Li Xie and Duke Aiwei'er behind.

  The top of the tower is over a hundred meters high, it should be windy and cold, but the top of the tower is gentle and warm.

  Looking at the azure sky, white clouds drifting by, as if stretching out one's hand could touch them. The sky is infinitely vast and wide, belonging to the white clouds. Li Xie's heart is also infinitely vast and wide, but at this moment it is occupied by Princess Aylie.

  Under the sky, only these two people were left. In Li Xie's eyes, there was such a beauty: shallow purple micro-curled long hair scattered on her shoulders, especially dazzling in the sunlight at noon; the soft and beautiful lines on her face outlined an enchanting landscape, with the five senses adding to the beauty; under the gauze clothes, the beautiful body was faintly visible, emitting a seductive aura, the most primitive wildness! These were in stark contrast to the sacred atmosphere of Duke Aiwier, making beauty so striking at this moment!

  "Especially those two faintly wrinkled eyebrows, as if they are flirting with me! It's really captivating! Li Xie had a foolish look on his face, and he was so enchanted that he even spoke out loud the words in his heart."

  Duke Avril frowned deeply, his face displeased: "Earl Ye, what did you say?"

  "What? Nothing!" Li Xie's expression changed, and he said seriously: "Let's get started! I can already feel the divine light of the Goddess of Life stirring!"

  "Hmph!" The sudden confession from Li Xie earlier made Duke Elwes think he was a scoundrel, and didn't have much of a good impression. Only after finding out that Li Xie was a priest did he slightly change his opinion, but now seeing Li Xie's current appearance, his heart only had disgust left! He coldly said: "The promotion ceremony requires an extremely pure heart and devout faith! Earl Ye, the Duke hopes you won't ruin this promotion!"

  Feeling the Duke of Avril's disgust, Li Xie didn't think much of it.

  Master Sleep said: If you like a woman, if you can't make her like you immediately, then you must make her notice you, whether it's annoying, disgusting or even nauseating! Make her notice you, and you've already left an impression on her mind. Don't back down, don't doubt, this is a great start.

  I'd rather you not get promoted, hehe, I always believe that love at first sight can't last long, it's the daily accumulation of feelings that truly matters! Believe me, my love at first sight for you is your good fortune! When we've accumulated enough feelings, then it'll be our good fortune! With this premise, I just can't let you succeed in getting promoted! Haha, just right, our hearts aren't pure enough, and we can't even talk about devotion to the goddess of life!

  Meng Na, let me be the person you must appear with every month! Hahaha...

  Li Xie was secretly delighted in his heart, but his face remained serious and solemn. Now, it's time to hold the baptism ceremony with dignity!

  Then Li Xie was stunned!

  He forgot to ask how to get baptized!

  That won't do, go take a bath in that pool instead? The goddess of life is above, don't be so cheap with me!

  Li Xie's gaze shifted to the Pool of Life at the top of the Tower of Eternity.

  It is a heart-shaped pool of about twenty square meters, built with Han white jade, about half a meter deep and the water depth is about twenty centimeters, only ankle-deep.

  The pool water is clear and sparkling like a spring, shining with glittering light under the sunlight.

  In the middle of the pool, there is a sculpture, which is a white, sacred and full of loving female statue. The statue holds a flower of life in one hand, as if smelling it; with the other hand holding a water bottle carved with the flower of life, the water bottle tilts, and clear water flows slowly into the pool of life.

  This is the stone statue of the Goddess of Life!

  Avril ignored Li Xie, walked slowly down to the Pool of Life, knelt in front of the statue of the Goddess of Life, clasped her hands together at her chest, lifted her pretty face towards the goddess's face, and closed her eyes.

  Li Xie looked at her, feeling extremely depressed in his heart!

  Damn it! The most important part wasn't even clarified!

  How did she get washed? Are you going to help her take a bath?

  Can't ask! Asking would blow the cover! Doesn't even understand baptism, wouldn't Mona kick me down from the Eternal Tower? Master Mian is above, this is over a hundred meters high! Even if I'm a vampire, I'd splat into a meat pie, my internal energy can't support fully repairing my body, and I'd directly croak!

  Just as Li Xie was in a dilemma, a slightly annoyed voice came from the other side: "Baron Xie, do you really want to baptize me? Are you even willing to make a small gesture of pouring a drop of life spring on my head under the Life Vessel?"

  Wow!

  Pour water on one's head!

  Grandma's, why didn't you say so earlier!

  "Here I come! I feel like the Goddess of Life is watching from above, and for a moment, I was so caught up in prayer that I almost forgot what I'm supposed to do. Here I go!"

  Li Xie quickly ran into the pool of life, his movements too big, causing the water to churn and splash, the water splashing from his feet soaked Avier's clothes below her waist, making Avier's face even more gloomy, but she still didn't open her eyes.

  Li Xie ran to the front of Ai Wei'er, sniffed, and in the air there was a faint scent of unknown flowers, gentle and heart-warming. Looking at the beauty and smelling the fragrance, Li Xie really didn't want to do anything else, just looking like this for an afternoon was also a pleasant thing!

  Of course, seeing the Duke of Avril's face turn red with rage to the point of explosion, Li Xie hurriedly held his hands under the flowing spring water from the treasure bottle. As he watched the spring water moisten his hands, Li Xie suddenly realized something and his heart skipped a beat as he turned around to glance at Grand Duke Avril!

  I knew it!

  Due to Avril's kneeling position and the water splashed by Li Xie, Avril's lower garments were already soaked!

  Gauze clothes with wet water!

  Sleep Master is online!

  What kind of clothes are those! They're basically just a transparent thin layer stuck to your skin!

  Avril's slender white legs are on full display! A patch of white, making people drool!

  Damn it, how can that triangular black thing come to destroy this beautiful white world? But why do my eyes always look at that black thing? Is it because of the abnormal attraction of black and white contrast?

  It's like this! Absolutely not because I have impure thoughts!

  In Li Xie's mind, three small deer were frantically colliding, and he felt the blood in his body constantly sinking down. Li Xie was greatly shocked and hastily concentrated his will, lifting the blood in his body up to his upper body!

  At this time, it is absolutely impossible to show off in front of everyone, especially when you only have a thin layer of gauze on your body! If Duke Everill sees you, you'll be finished afterwards!

  Li Xie shook off the evil thoughts in his mind, and with all his willpower, he lifted up his own blood, then hastily scooped up water and splashed it onto Duke Avier's head!

  He wanted to finish the baptism as soon as possible, anyway, Duke Avril still had to close his eyes and pray, but he didn't need to, after finishing the baptism, he could sneak aside and observe slowly!

  At the moment when the holy water was sprinkled on Duke Avier's head, Li Xie's heart beat accelerated again!

  Looking at the sparkling spring water in the sunlight, Li Xie suddenly realized a more serious problem!

  According to Newton's law of gravity, water flows downward!

  The spring water moistened the hair of Duke Evie, moistened her face, and flowed down along the arc of her hair and cheeks, dripping onto her chin and shoulders, continuing to flow down, with a small stream gathering in the valley on Duke Evie's chest, while the rest scattered in all directions.

  So, Avril's duke's clothes in front of her chest were also soaked!

  Her slender figure is now adorned with a transparent layer, adding to her hazy beauty!

  It's actually crystal clear, and there's nothing obscure about it!

  That peerless fiendish device immediately captured Li Xie's eyes!

  The pink color shot out from the top of the fierce instrument, causing Li Xie's blood to churn violently throughout his body! The surging blood in Li Xie's body was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, and it was no longer under the control of Li Xie's will, which had been completely shattered by the peerless fierce instrument.

  The place has been on high alert for a long time!

  And the blood did not stop, boiling constantly, as if it was about to burst out of Li Xie's body!

  Then, the blood finally found a breakthrough!

  That was when Li Xie became a vampire and was seduced by a mysterious woman, leaving behind a hidden illness!

  "Hmm..."

  He shot out two columns of blood from his nostrils at a 45-degree angle downwards with great force!
