The guest of honor of the banquet was undoubtedly Gu Shengyin. In addition, the Red Cardinals were also the subject of much attention.

The attention of the noble ladies was entirely on the handsome and dashing knights.

Especially Carlos, who was handsome and charming, graceful yet powerful. He was naturally the most popular one.

It was a pity that all the ladies were disappointed because this Carlos, who turned a blind eye to all the pretty females, had placed all of his attention on Gu Shengyin.

If they didn't know that the Holy Saintess was forbidden from marriage, these aristocratic ladies may have thought that there was something secret between the two.

"Saintess, your Holiness, these are the areas where my Dark Blue Empire has been invaded by the Dark." After the banquet, the Emperor of the Deep Blue Empire began to talk business with Gu Shengyin.

Gu Shengyin was looked the information over. It really was the two cities in the northernmost part of the Dark Blue Empire. The news provided by the Emperor was not false. It was exactly the same as Holy Church's investigation.

"I will depart for the Icefield City tomorrow, and these demons who betrayed the God of Light will be severely punished!" Gu Shengyin's voice revealed a killing intent.

"Then I thank the Saintess." The Emperor of the Deep Blue Empire had a grateful look on his face.

Gu Shengyin thought to herself on the way back: the Emperor of this Dark Blue Empire, cannot have a simple purpose.

However, ever since she had received the divine baptism, her mastery over magic had reached Saint level. There are also strong people like Carlos and the Red Cardinals following her. Even if they end up in a terrible situation, they would have no problem retreating.

Since this was the case, why not follow his plan and head to Icefield City?

What's more, this trip, whether or not she agrees, she has to go.

The team only stayed in the Dark Blue Empire's imperial capital for a day before heading to Icefield City.

The Emperor of the Deep Blue Empire sent the group off with a smile. His eyes were filled with emotions that no one could understand.

Carlos seemed to sense something, and looked back from far away.

He said nothing. He would always be the most loyal knight, guarding the Saintess.

Icefield City.

When Gu Shengyin got off the carriage, even if she had already prepared herself in advance, she was still shocked by the horrific scene before her.

The whole city was filled with black mist. The innate Light body was particularly sensitive to the power of Darkness. Gu Shengyin had noticed the rich Dark magic in the air here almost instantly.

The city was saturated with an aura of depression. No one was out on the streets and every door was tightly shut. There was not even a trace of living humans.

From far away, there was someone that saw them and beckoned them over.

It was a thin and sallow-looking middle-aged man wearing a robes that were worn but not old. He saw Gu Shengyin and was filled with great joy: "Icefield City's governor, Koman, welcomes the Saintess."

Gu Shengyin looked behind him, and only saw a few people, she raised an eyebrow, but did not comment, asking other questions instead.

"How is the situation in your Icefield City now?"

Governor Koman smiled bitterly: "The Dark forces have been attacking almost every three to five days. Nine-tenths of our soldiers of Icefield City have been killed in combat. Now there are only the few old, weak and sickly in the city. Also, ever since the Dark miasma appeared, people in the city have weakened and fallen sick. With how Icefield City is now, we are all just waiting for death."


Chapter 10

Governor Koman.

Gu Shengyin's expression was cold. As Carlos gave orders to their people, she raised the scepter high and a piercing white light rose from the top of her scepter, gradually spreading until the entire Icefield City was covered.

"Great Purification!" The two Cardinals' eyes revealed astonishment as they looked at Gu Shengyin.

Great Purification was considered to be one of the most powerful Light magic. An unqualified Saintess would be unable to use it to its fullest. The two Cardinals could also display this magic, but was not able to make the Light magic envelop the entire Icefield City like Gu Shengyin.

Wouldn't this mean that the Saintess, at such a young age, had already surpassed these two old men, who had been immersed in Light magic for hundreds of years, in terms of magic?

The two glanced at each other, their expressions were filled with shock and pleasant surprise.

Regardless, as the Holy Saintess of the Holy Church, Gu Shengyin's strength was a good thing for the Holy Church.

After two, three miserable screams, Gu Shengyin knew that this was Dark force's final struggle.

Great Purification was the most overbearing spell out of all Light magic. Great Purification, as the name implied, melted all dark, unclean things that were repelled by Light under the rays of light of Great Purification.

Governor Koman looked at the black fog, that had covered the entire city of Icefield for several months, disappear in this formless white light. Icefield City finally recovered its former clear skies, and he nearly burst into tears.

"Many thanks, Saintess." He bowed deeply towards Gu Shengyin.

The attendants behind him also followed suit and bowed towards Gu Shengyin.

"You do not need to be polite. Killing the Dark forces and destroying the Darkness was originally my duty." Gu Shengyin said with a smile.

At this time, Carlos suddenly opened his mouth to speak, "I do not know if Governor Koman can prepare a place for us to rest? It has been a long journey for the Saintess. This servant still needs to reorganize the group and let them rest properly."

Governor Koman repeatedly nodded. "It had been prepared long ago. It is me who was not being considerate." He promptly led Gu Shengyin and the others to the prepared place.

Carlos stood beside Gu Shengyin, and Gu Shengyin glanced at him with gratitude.

When Governor Koman's people left, Gu Shengyin let out a sigh of relief, sat down, and smiled at Carlos: "Many thanks."

Carlos' expression was serious, "Earlier, there was no need for Saintess to show off power. A group of Light Knights are sufficient to handle those inferior Dark forces."

Gu Shengyin shook her head: "You should have seen it. All of Governor Koman's people are now birds startled by a mere twang of a bow. If I was not capable of convincing them with strength, I am afraid it would be very difficult to win their trust."

Carlos stated harshly, "You shouldn't use your body to take risks. I am instructed to protect your safety and have an obligation to keep you safe and sound."

Gu Shengyin wore a tired face, "I just overused my magic a little, that's all. Enough, Carlos. Go first, let me rest for a while."

Carlos seemed to want to say something. He looked at Gu Shengyin's somewhat pale face, restrained himself, and quietly left.

System said, "That human was very concerned about you. Host, your attitude was very cold."

Gu Shengyin closed her eyes. "It is because he is too concerned about me that I have to do this."

Since they were destined not to have any results, let it be strangled before it germinates.
