Fang Heng composed himself and was about to answer when a line of game hints appeared on his retina.

[Hint (Your mental strength has reached the limit and triggered): Affected by the “Sacred Heart-Honesty” skill, there is a chance that you will receive negative effects when you lie. Please be careful (The effect of this skill is affected by the player’s will and perception).]

[Hint: The Book of Oaths has resisted the effect of this skill.]

Fang Heng nodded and said, “Yes, Judge. Please ask.”

“We heard that you were led into the ritual hall by Judge Sanjay, is that right?”

“Yes.”

“Tell us everything that happened after we entered the meeting hall. Don’t hide anything, including all the details. The more detailed, the better.”

Fang Heng’s expression was solemn as he nodded. Then, he explained everything, except for the slight modification of the conversation on the other side of the space passage.

After hearing Fang Heng’s story, the three judges hesitated again and looked at each other.

Another judge in a deep voice, “Are you sure you heard the word ‘God’s punishment’?”

“Yes, Judge. I’m sure I didn’t hear wrongly.”

The judges started whispering again.

Jerymaine asked again, “Why is there a God’s punishment?”

Fang Heng shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

“Perhaps it’s because of the abyssal demon.” A judge’s face was filled with deep self-doubt as he said, “The holy realm has long been dissatisfied with us regarding the abyssal demon…”

Jerymaine asked, “Why did Sanjay choose to open the passage to the holy realm?”

Fang Heng looked confused and shook his head.

Holy Paladin Johann nodded and replied, “I might know that. I’ve heard some of Judge Sanjay’s conversations with Kadar. They think that Fang Shuo is extremely talented in the sacred study, so I guess they might want to invite the holy realm to test Fang Shuo’s talent.”

The doubts in the judges’ hearts diminished a little.

Jerymaine looked at Fang Heng and asked, “You have received the recognition of the Book of Oaths?”

“Yes, I only found out about it from Johann later. I came across it after the explosion when I was searching for survivors with everyone.”

Fang Heng’s expression was calm as he opened his hand.

The Book of Oaths appeared in his palm, emitting a faint dark golden light. There was no mistake!

It was the Book of Oaths! This was definitely true!

Although the three judges still had doubts about Fang Heng’s words and were still confused about the explosion of the cathedral, they were very sure about the Book of Oaths!

Fang Heng must have obtained the recognition of the Book of Oaths!

It was extremely difficult to achieve this!

The three judges exchanged glances again.

When Balzan saw the expressions of the judges, his heart couldn’t help but sink.

Jerymaine nodded and said, “Too many things have happened today. You must be tired. Go to the inn at the foot of the mountain and have a good rest. I will continue to ask you questions tomorrow. Remember, keep quiet about what happened tonight. Don’t tell anyone.”

The Holy Light barrier that enveloped everyone disappeared. Jerymaine raised his hand, signaling the two Holy Paladins to bring Fang Heng and the injured down the mountain to rest.

Fang Heng nodded respectfully and answered, “Yes, Judge.”

After watching Fang Heng and the others being brought down the mountain, Holy Paladin Balzan couldn’t help but take a step forward and said in a deep voice, “Judges, there are many suspicious points about Fang Shuo. Please be careful not to make a misjudgment.”

“Yes, this is a serious matter. We will be careful.”

Jerymaine pondered for a moment and continued, “Since the Book of Oaths made the decision, we’ll temporarily nurture him as the successor of the Holy Court. We’ll make plans after the dust settles.”

Another judge agreed and said, “Yes. The explosion destroyed a lot of the records. It will take some time to collect and review the data again.”

“As for the identity check, we’ll push it back a little. Right now, we need to treat the wounded as soon as possible and count our losses. We’ve already lost too much.”

“Also, we need to contact Judge Bisca as soon as possible. Tell her to come back and take charge of the situation.”

When Balzan heard that the judges were discussing other matters, he couldn’t help but frown.

He was the boss of the Idamudun Gang, and he was extremely lucky to pass the God’s Choice Ritual and become an elite judge of the Holy Court.

But after a few years, his voice in the Holy Court was still not high.

Just now, he had obtained some information about Fang Heng from his dead player.

He knew that there was something strange about Fang Heng, but he never thought that Fang Heng would be the one who blew up the entire Holy Church. He just felt that Fang Heng was too lucky!

It was one thing for him to have such a high talent in the sacred study but he was also able to obtain the recognition of the Book of Oaths by chance.

Was he going to let others play?

Balzan’s heart was no longer just filled with jealousy. Other than jealousy, there was also a deep fear!

Now that they had already fallen out with Fang Heng, even if there was nothing wrong with Fang Heng, their relationship with him had long been like fire and water.

One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers!

Fang Heng joining the Holy Court was the biggest threat to him!

Balzan didn’t know that Fang Heng didn’t even put their Idamudun Gang in his eyes. He had already treated Fang Heng as the greatest enemy he had ever met in his life.

“Judge, be careful, I will bring some people to monitor them for a period of time.”

“That’s good. The city is too chaotic right now. The details of the explosion in the cathedral still need to be investigated. I suspect that it might be related to the plague aura. Bring some people to protect them. You must ensure Fang Shuo’s safety.”

A smile of success flashed across Balzan’s eyes and he replied, “Yes, Judge. Leave it to me.”

…
At the foot of the mountain, Fang Heng did not know that he had been targeted by the players again. He was led by two Holy Paladins to a hotel at the foot of the mountain.

After entering the hotel room, everyone finally escaped the surveillance of the Holy Court and felt relieved.

Mo Jiawei asked, “How’s the situation at the Holy Mountain?”

“There’s no problem with the Holy Mountain.”

Fang Heng leaned on his crutch and walked to the window with some difficulty. He glanced out of the window.

There seemed to be only two Holy Paladins guarding the hotel, but in fact, there were many followers of the Holy Court hiding in the dark.

It was strange. The cathedral on the Holy Mountain had just exploded, and a large number of people were still gathered on the mountain to carry out the rescue mission. Why were there so many people gathered around the hotel to observe in secret?

Could it be that they were here to monitor him?

It seemed that the Holy Court’s suspicion of him had not been eliminated.

“No, we can’t wait any longer. The longer we wait, the more dangerous it will be. We need to retreat immediately.”

Fang Heng made his decision and immediately turned his head and said, “Alright, now that we have the item, we will think of a way to retreat immediately according to the original plan!”

…
“Mm, alright! I’ll go offline and communicate with the guild. I’ll be right back.”

As she spoke, Zhuo Lingfang’s figure gradually faded..
