232: Double happiness

When Ghost flew back to Jason's side, he immediately left the crowd, his expression ugly: "A mere Mortal swindler, how did you take so long?"

Ghost's eyes were gloomy: *How dare he insult Master? His crime deserves death. Should I just kill him directly?*

Seeing that Ghost was silent and still looked quite displeased, Jason's heart skipped a beat. He thought he had been too impatient, and that the other party was feeling uncomfortable because he was being blamed after working hard.

His tone softened a bit: "Thank you for your hard work! Is that impostor dead?"

Remembering Xu Le's instructions, Ghost coldly squeezed out a word: "No."

"No? A mere Mortal, and you didn't?" Jason almost hacked someone, but it was really because he couldn't beat it right now. He suppressed his anger: "Why?"

"I missed a few times before, and later I figured it out!"

"Figured out what?" Jason was increasingly dissatisfied. It was something that could be solved by just killing him, what was there to figure out?

Reciting the lines Xu Le had prepared, Ghost could only speak without emotion, as it had never performed Possession on anyone before:

"Spu's reputation is already established. If we kill him now, wouldn't everyone in the world cherish his memory from the bottom of their hearts? After all, humans always unconsciously beautify the dead. When that happens, you'll be afraid of living in his shadow for the rest of your life."

"Conversely, when the Pope presides over the certification, you can personally stand up and expose his conspiracy. With the god of light's verification, everyone in the world will know that Spu is just a despicable and shameless impostor."

Jason's expression was uncertain: "Then wouldn't the massive amount of faith be wasted? The world will still think I lack ability and virtue; otherwise, why would I be suppressed by that impostor?"

Ghost thought to itself: *You really are incompetent. Your strength is insufficient, and your intelligence is completely crushed by Master; even what you said was guessed by Master almost exactly.* It didn't need to think and just recited the script:

"Being suppressed by an idiot naturally means you are incompetent, but what if it isn't?"

After speaking, Ghost followed Xu Le's instructions, leaving Jason five seconds to think before continuing:

"You can completely praise Spu, letting the entire Beidian Continent know of Spu's legendary deeds. Not only that, you can praise him even more, praising him as one of a kind in heaven and unparalleled on earth."

"The more you praise him now, the more those who were deceived will think it's only natural that you were suppressed by him after you expose him."

"What? How can that be? Wouldn't that ruin my reputation?" Jason shook his head like a rattle-drum.

Ghost couldn't help but look down on Jason even more, marveling at Xu Le's wisdom, and continued to recite the lines:

"Don't rush, let me finish."

"Then you can fabricate a few stories, something like the True and False Divine Sons stirring up the world, and then portray yourself as having unparalleled combat power, only being suppressed because you were concerned for the common people, and fortunately, the god of light acted and killed the fake Divine Son in one blow."

"Such a dramatic and bizarre story will surely be remembered by everyone. Your brilliance, martial prowess, kindness, and generosity in the story will also be remembered by everyone. Are you still afraid of not being able to harvest massive amounts of faith?"

"But..." Jason was moved, a strange light flashing in his eyes. He even imagined that scene: everyone would never forget the towering figure who endured humiliation, was suppressed by a fake, was not recognized by the world, and could only carry the burden forward.

Ghost recited the final killing line: "You are still somewhat unwilling to be suppressed by the fake Divine Son, but what if the fake Divine Son is a Clone of Satan? What if his death by the god of light at the certification ceremony was due to your scheme?"

Boom!

Jason felt his blood surging and his mouth dry. The unwillingness of being suppressed by an ordinary person completely disappeared. He was killing a Clone of Satan that even the god of light couldn't kill!

Everything was due to his arrangement; couldn't he add a label of unparalleled intelligence?

It was possible, very possible!

His voice trembled: "You are right. After we go back, I will definitely not forget your contribution today!"

...

Two months later, Xu Le finally stepped into the Holy See.

This was the center of the Holy See, where the Pope resided, and the Holy Land in the hearts of everyone on the entire Beidian Continent.

Hearing that the Divine Son had arrived at the Holy See, the Pope personally led twelve Cardinals and hundreds of High Priests to greet him at the city gate.

On the city wall in the distance, Jason watched all this. The reception, which he originally thought was ordinary and boring, became exceptionally sweet.

Beside him stood the knight Ketch, who had the "Wisdom Eye to recognize the true Divine Son," while four beautiful knights stood further away.

Seeing the envious gazes of Jason and the four beautiful knights, Ketch thought of the upcoming certification ceremony and smiled slightly: "I have heard an ancient saying in Great Qin: 'Watch him build his mansions, watch him feast his guests, watch his building collapse.'"

Thinking of his own plans, Jason deliberately took out a goose feather fan and gently waved it.

In another day, everything would belong to him.

Once his heart was clear, looking at the grand reception again, he felt refreshed.

From afar, Xu Le, dressed in a white robe, rode on a giant wolf over three meters tall, looking majestic. Behind him were thirty-seven armored knights in black, holding long spears, possessing an Aura that "swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger."

Xu Le's expression was solemn. He had deliberately dragged out the time, but after two months, he still solved the last devil incident.

Even with the efforts of 20 million devout believers, plus the help of the Bishops and Jason in promoting him, as of today, he had just barely reached the Peak of level 10 faith.

And then he got stuck!

It was as if he was lacking an opportunity.

Rumble~

Xu Le arrived at the city gate, saw the Pope and others greeting him, and flipped off the wolf.

"Welcome, Divine Son!"

Everyone's faces were beaming with smiles, and their eyes were full of appreciation and affirmation.

Previously, there were fame-seekers who wanted to compete with the Divine Son for glory, but in the end, they were frightened by the Divine Son's brilliant battle achievements, and no one dared to show their heads anymore.

The Pope smiled kindly, but very reservedly, and invited Xu Le to walk to the front.

Although he was the master of the Holy See, he was also just a servant of the god, and Xu Le was the Divine Son, so how could he dare to neglect him?

He personally brought Xu Le to the church, took him around to see all the places, and then sent the Saintess to receive him.

"No need. I'll just go to the library to read some books."

"Ah~ Okay!"

A look of astonishment flashed in the Pope's eyes. In previous records, the Divine Son would always invite the Saintess to personally help him read the holy scriptures. Could it be that this year was different?

However, he did not refuse. The holy scriptures were the code interpreting the True God's teachings. For so many years, no Pope had dared to change them, and he was not afraid of the Divine Son checking them.

He did not know that what Xu Le wanted was to get the Spells here. In particular, he was quite interested in the level 10 Spell "Summon Angel," which only the Popes of past generations could learn.

Unfortunately, it was a secret transmission after all. Xu Le searched for a long time and only found a few decent Spells.

"Holy Light Imprisonment Spell," "Holy Light Ray," "Holy Light Ignition Spell," "Holy Light Barrier," "Holy Light Teleportation Spell."

"Divine Son, are you satisfied?" the Saintess asked nervously.

Xu Le shook his head: "Definitely not satisfied. I didn't get to see the 'Summon Angel' Spell, so I am a bit disappointed."

Now that the Divine Son certification was imminent, he was already prepared to run away, so naturally, he was as direct as possible.

"Ah~" The Saintess didn't expect the Divine Son's "honesty." She exclaimed, blushing, "I will go ask Pope-sama."

When the Pope heard the Saintess's words, he almost thought it was the Saintess who wanted to learn it herself. He played with angels every day, so how could he look down on a level 10 Spell?

However, thinking of the secret records of the past Popes, a smile curled on his lips, and he called all the Cardinals over.

After some conspiracy, the Saintess, with a look of doubting life, carried a tray on which were the "Summon Angel" Spell book, twelve Advanced Spell scrolls, a super luxurious Advanced staff, a luxurious robe embroidered with an Advanced defensive formation, and a gold card containing 1 million gold coins.

"Are these all for me?" Xu Le was a bit surprised. He knew about gifts for meeting, but it was strange to send them after half a day of meeting.

"Lord Divine Son, the Pope asks if you can first Seal Satan, then communicate with heaven and earth to certify your identity," the Saintess mumbled.

If he didn't possess a Divine Soul, Xu Le really wouldn't have heard clearly. He nodded and agreed: "Okay!"

Double happiness!
