Chapter 1911 - 1909: Mei Lan Is Demoted
But thinking about it, it’s quite normal. Isn’t everything in this world complementary?
Actually, when Wang Dadong was teasing her, surprisingly, His Holiness the Pope didn’t feel much anger.
Instead, there was a special feeling.
Perhaps it’s because, in this world, besides him, no other man dared to speak to her like that.
Of course, for Wang Dadong, teasing the Pope was also quite an enjoyable thing.
"So, may I ask, can you put down my Cardinal now?" At the moment when Wang Dadong was secretly pleased with himself, the Pope slightly frowned and said.
Only then did Wang Dadong realize he was still holding Gado in his arms.
He immediately and reluctantly put Gado down.
If he could, he would want to keep holding her.
After all, she is the Goddess. Who knows if there will be another opportunity to hold her after this...
Gado’s face was flushed like a red apple, and she walked over to the Pope with her head down.
She didn’t dare look at the Pope’s face, feeling as if she had been caught in an affair.
The Pope glanced at Gado and said faintly, "Come back to the Holy See with me."
After speaking, she turned around.
"No, Your Holiness, you can’t do this. Gado openly defied the Heavenly Prison Guards and attempted to abduct the heavenly prisoners, blatantly violating the church’s rules. How can you allow her to continue as Cardinal?" Just as Gado was about to leave with the Pope, High Priestess Mei Lan rushed over.
The Pope letting Wang Dadong go was one thing, but allowing Gado to continue as Cardinal was another.
Considering Gado’s actions, even without giving her any substantive punishment, her status as Cardinal should be stripped.
The Pope stopped, turned back, and looked at Mei Lan indifferently, asking, "Are you the Pope, or am I the Pope?"
"Of course, it’s you... but, how can you make everyone accept this?" Although confronting the Pope was very unwise, Mei Lan was blinded with rage.
The Pope frowned slightly.
"Even if you don’t care about Gado’s actions, as the holy Cardinal, she was with a man..." Mei Lan found it hard to continue.
"Oh? What about Gado and a man?" The Pope asked calmly.
Mei Lan bit her lip and said, "Your Holiness, if I remember correctly, a Cardinal must remain pure. If Gado has lost her purity, allowing her to continue as Cardinal is not only disrespectful to you but also to our Lord!"
"So, High Priestess Mei Lan, are you implying that Gado is no longer pure?" The Pope squinted and asked.
"I, I just suspect..." Mei Lan wasn’t sure if Gado was still pure or not.
However, given Gado’s closeness with Wang Dadong, she might not refuse if he wanted it.
So even if it was just speculation, she was quite confident.
After all, what man can resist the allure of beauty?
Especially the beautiful Cardinal?
Ordinary people dare not harbor such thoughts about the Cardinal because they know she is sacred and inviolable, but Wang Dadong was different.
Clearly, he has won the heart of the Cardinal.
The Pope paused and said, "Mei Lan, even though you are a High Priestess, you cannot randomly doubt a Cardinal. If the result shows that Gado is still pure, you will be punished. Are you willing?"
Mei Lan hesitated but eventually nodded and said, "I am willing!"
A trace of regret suddenly appeared on the Pope’s face, and she said, "Mei Lan, oh Mei Lan, you really disappoint me."
"Your Holiness?" Mei Lan’s expression changed, not understanding why the Pope suddenly said such words.
The Pope, with a solemn expression, sternly stared at Mei Lan and said, "High Priestess Mei Lan, do you really think I am unaware of your actions?"
"Your Holiness, please forgive me!" Mei Lan was shocked and immediately knelt down.
"Mei Lan, I originally intended to give you a chance to correct your mistakes, but you have disappointed me too much. Your actions have rendered you unqualified to continue your role as High Priestess. I now announce the revocation of your High Priestess status and your demotion to Cardinal!" The Pope’s voice was filled with majesty.
"Your Holiness..." Mei Lan was dumbfounded; she never expected that the Pope would demote her to Cardinal.
"No need to say more. I’ve already been lenient!" The Pope snorted and then turned to leave.
After the Pope left, Mei Lan sat helplessly on the ground, looking despondent.
Wang Dadong, however, was quite satisfied with this result.
He was a bit concerned that Mei Lan, with her status being higher than Gado’s, might still secretly target Gado even if not openly.
Now demoted from High Priestess to Cardinal, her status would be the same as Gado’s from now on.
If this was the outcome, she could only blame herself for her self-destructive actions.
"Well, High Priestess Mei Lan, oh no, Cardinal Mei Lan, see you again someday?" As Wang Dadong left, he couldn’t resist landing a parting blow.
Mei Lan’s silver teeth were almost ground to pieces, and her hatred for Wang Dadong deepened.
She wished nothing more than to tear Wang Dadong apart.
As for Mei Lan’s filled-with-murderous-intent gaze, Wang Dadong was unfazed; after all, Mei Lan already hated him, so more hatred wouldn’t matter.
"Gado, take care." Now that Gado had regained her status as Goddess, Wang Dadong naturally couldn’t be too close to her anymore.
"Take care." Gado nodded.
After bidding farewell to Gado, Wang Dadong directly bought a ticket back to Huaxia.
Hell, Huaxia Base.
"Are we really not going to tell the boss about this?" Ji Wuye, with a sorrowful expression, looked at the other two kings.
He was naturally referring to Huang Fei’s situation.
"Let’s wait for a while..." Jun Tianzui shook his head.
Previously, although Huang Fei was captured by the God of Killing, she was still alive. But now, Huang Fei had disappeared.
Wang Dadong boarded the plane bound for Huaxia.
Logically speaking, everything was settled, and his mood should be relaxed. Yet, he couldn’t shake off a feeling of unease.
But what exactly was causing this unease, he couldn’t figure out for the moment.
Since he couldn’t think of it, he decided not to bother. He was quite tired these past few days, so he resolved to take a nap.
Wang Dadong didn’t purchase a first-class ticket; it was just the regular business class.
Initially, he wondered if he might encounter a beautiful female passenger, but the seat next to him remained empty even after the plane took off.
"Boss, looks like I can’t accompany you for much longer either..." Huang Fei leaned against Wang Dadong’s shoulder, murmuring softly.
Her feet had already begun to turn ethereal.
This time, it was indeed the kind that would fade away...
