Free Web NovelChapter 96: Chapter 96: The High Priest’s Female
Feng Yanshen didn’t look shocked anymore. His expression had turned into one of frozen, deadly rage. He looked at the Orcs trying to touch his female, and his holy aura shifted into something dark and murderous.
"How dare you," he whispered, his voice cutting through the noise like a cold blade.
He reached out and grabbed Yue Yue’s waist, pulling her flush against his chest in a protective, possessive grip.
Feng Yanshen was completely speechless. He was also more angry than he had ever been in his entire life.
He looked down at the female trembling in his arms and felt a mix of shock and regret. He had always known Yue Yue was special.
He had felt her strange, warm energy during that night in her bedroom, which had calmed his broken spiritual sea, but he never dreamed she possessed Dual S+++ abilities.
If he had known she was the second coming of the Great Queen, he would have never allowed her to leave the Inner Sanctum. freewebnσvel.cøm
He would have hidden her away from the world forever. But now it was too late. The secret was out, and the attention of all four empires was pinned on her like a target.
He looked at the Orcs below. Even with his high position as the High Priest, these males were losing their respect for him.
They didn’t care about his holy status anymore. Their eyes were bloodshot, and their breathing was heavy.
They were no longer acting like civilized men. The wild beasts inside them had taken over. All they wanted was to grab Yue Yue and take her for themselves.
Feng Yanshen felt the blood surge in his eyes. Behind his white blindfold, his gaze turned even darker, glowing with a murderous red light.
He saw the high ranking warriors crawling onto the podium, trying to resist his spiritual pressure just to get a hand on her. They had completely lost their sanity.
Feng Yanshen didn’t hesitate. He lifted his long, white sleeve and swept his arm through the air. A massive, invisible shockwave exploded from his body.
BOOM!
The Orcs who had climbed onto the stage were sent flying backward like ragdolls. They crashed into the floor below, shocking the entire crowd.
The High Priest finally unleashed his full, terrifying aura. The air in the hall became so heavy that many people found it hard to breathe.
"If you dare to step near my female, I will kill you right here and now!" his voice boomed. It wasn’t the calm, melodic voice of a priest anymore. It was the roar of a possessive predator.
The entire hall went stone cold silent. The male Orcs were stunned. They finally understood why she had been living in the Inner Sanctum. She wasn’t just a guest. She was his.
The junior priests and temple servants were the first to recover. They didn’t care about the rioting Orcs.
To them, Yue Yue was now the most sacred being in existence, the mother of the next Phoenix heir.
"Protect the Lady!" the junior priest screamed.
Suddenly, dozens of temple guards and servants rushed forward. They formed a tight, unbreakable circle around Feng Yanshen and Yue Yue.
They stood with their backs to the Priest, facing the crowd with artifacts and determined eyes. They looked at Yue Yue with pure reverence, ready to die just to keep her robes from getting dirty.
Yue Yue clutched the High Priest’s robe, her face buried in his chest. She was terrified by the madness of the Orcs, but she was also stunned by his words. His female?
Since when did she belong to this priest? But as she felt his strong heartbeat and his protective grip, she didn’t try to pull away. Right now, his anger was the only thing keeping her safe from the hungry crowd.
Feng Yanshen didn’t look at his servants. He only looked at the door. He needed to get her back to the Inner Sanctum before the force of the four empires arrived to claim her.
He knew many of the main forces were not even here because they detested this temple rite, and neither did they have the will to pursue any female because in the rite it was humiliating for them to fight for the attention of any female.
So they had always waited for the rite to be over before making their move.
Prince Shao Han and the other noble females watched the scene with wide, blinking eyes. Everyone was staring at Yue Yue in the arms of the High Priest.
They were all thinking the same thing. Was this really the same High Priest who was famous for hating human touch? The man who was known to be cold and untouchable was now publicly embracing a female.
Looking at how naturally he held her, it was obvious to everyone that this wasn’t the first time they had been close. The way their bodies fit together made it look like they had done this many times before.
The First Prince, Shao Han, felt his eyes darken as he watched them. His hands clenched into tight fists at his sides.
He had been interested in Yue Yue’s mystery, but seeing her in the High Priest’s arms made his warrior instincts flare with a strange frustration.
Beside him, Lin En, who also had a Dual S rank, suddenly lost her spark in front of this purple haired lady. Shao Han suddenly wanted to leave her and go after Yue Yue.
But he managed to control himself and did not act like the other beasts. There would be plenty of opportunities. Showing his intentions here would definitely have an ending.
On the other hand, Lin En was practically glowing with joy. She couldn’t believe her luck. Her friend was actually the next Queen, a legendary Dual S+++ female. She was so proud to be associated with someone so powerful.
But Princess Shao Yuyan was the angriest of them all. She wanted to scream and kick both Lin En and Yue Yue.
First, a nobody from the border outshined her, and now this bitch from the Inner Sanctum had completely erased her existence.
Yuyan regretted even coming to the Rite. She had come to be the star, but instead she had lost all her face and dignity.
She looked at the rebellious Orcs who were being held back by the temple servants and felt like dying of embarrassment.
Are these Orcs all mindless? she thought bitterly. They only care about rankings. They don’t even care about a female’s true nature.
This bitch must be a vile, arrogant woman, but they don’t see it. They just want to throw themselves at her feet.
At first she had thought she would at least choose one husband, but now she didn’t even want to look at these mindless Orcs.
