While Archbishop Doberman was still reeling from the shock of Chen Fei’s age, the others, like Melsdom and Mardo, instantly bristled.

”Hales, are you looking for death?!”

Saint Magus Melsdom had initially been watching coldly from the sidelines. Since Mr. Chen had not yet spoken, he naturally wouldn’t overstep his bounds. But the situation had changed. Seeing Hales dare to point at Mr. Chen’s nose and curse him to his face, how could he possibly tolerate it?

His face turned grim and a cold gleam flashed in his eyes, completely disregarding his own status as a Peak Holy Magister.

BOOM!

With a furious shout, his body erupted in terrifying flames, his magical energy surging and boiling menacingly!

”Hales, your mouth really stinks, doesn’t it?!”

It wasn’t just Melsdom. Right after, Mardo, who had now become an SSS-Level Superpowered Powerhouse, also moved with a cold expression. Inches of black aura seeped from his body and from beneath his feet, locking onto Hales.

”Fuck!”

Even the other surviving SS+ Peak Powerhouses from the various major forces couldn’t help but curse out loud as they surrounded Hales.

It was absurd! What kind of status and level did Mr. Chen possess? More importantly, he was their savior, their second parent. How could they let this one-armed cripple point at his nose and curse him? He was truly seeking death!

Upon witnessing such a terrifying scene, the area instantly fell silent as a grave.

HISS!

Old Brad, Ovilia, and the rest of the Brad Family members were all dumbfounded.

Hales’s face froze in terror.

The same was true for Archbishop Doberman. His face was rigid, as if struck by a paralysis spell, and he stared at Melsdom and the others in disbelief. Although their current conditions were somewhat strange, he could still recognize them, of course. That was Saint Magus Melsdom, a great SSS-Level Holy Magister whose status, level, and strength were equal to his own. That was Mardo, the renowned SS+ Ultimate Powerhouse and the second-in-command of the Scorched Earth Sect. And the rest… he recognized almost every one of them as a high-ranking member of a major force in the Western Dark World! But now? Now, these people were actually turning on them over a few words from Hales!

They were from the Holy Church of the Divine Holy Church! Hales was their church’s strongest Red Robed Bishop, and he, Doberman Scaldoran, was one of the three supreme Red Robed Archbishops! Yet, even knowing their identities, these people were still turning on them for that boy?

Silence. A deathly silence!

Then, even an old veteran like Doberman, who had weathered countless storms, couldn’t help the drastic change in his expression as an ominous premonition surged through his heart.

These people… Melsdom alone is enough to make me wary, let alone so many others. I may be proud, revered as one of the three Red Robed Archbishops of the Holy Church of the Divine Holy Church, but right now, I still feel a sense of dread. But the most ominous thing is their attitude. Given their status, why are they so respectful and deferential toward that young man? They’re even willing to fight for him and turn against us over a single remark.

”Saint Magus Melsdom, Mardo, this matter has nothing to do with you. It is a private grievance between our Holy Church of the Divine Holy Church and him. Are you certain you want to intervene?” Although Archbishop Doberman felt unsettled, his status kept him from losing his composure. His thoughts remained clear as he coldly questioned the group.

”You should understand, we are representatives of the Holy Church of the Divine Holy Church. Moreover, I, Doberman Scaldoran, am leading this in person. Is offending our church—offending me—truly worth it for a mere Easterner? That’s something you should think about very carefully!”

”Exactly! This has nothing to do with you, so back off! Don’t force our church to declare you enemies as well!” Hales blustered, regaining his confidence and putting on a domineering front.

He had panicked when he first saw the situation, but now that he saw Archbishop Doberman wasn’t panicking, he naturally felt fearless again. He truly didn’t believe these people would dare to fall out with their Holy Church of the Divine Holy Church for that little bastard. Are they out of their minds?

”Humph! Declare us enemies? Your Holy Church of the Divine Holy Church certainly has an impressive air about it! Why don’t you try it right now? I, Mardo, would like to see who here dares to disrespect Mr. Chen while I’m around!” Mardo sneered, his words dripping with killing intent.

Following that, he even released the full power of his new SSS-Level rank. The Dark Nether Jade had somehow already appeared in his hand, and he clutched it in his palm, postured to turn hostile at any moment.

”HISS! You… you actually… That’s the Dark Nether Jade!?”

Seeing this, Archbishop Doberman’s expression changed dramatically. He sucked in a sharp breath of cold air, his gaze fixed on Mardo with an incredulous and grim expression.

The Dark Nether Jade… what is that? It’s the most powerful Holy Artifact of the Scorched Earth Sect! One of the most famous top-tier Mid-Grade Holy Artifacts in the entire Western Dark World! It’s a terrifying sacred weapon that even I, Doberman Scaldoran, do not possess! But now, Mardo has just taken it out… and more terrifyingly, he has already broken through to SSS Rank?

One can only imagine how utterly shocked Archbishop Doberman was at this moment.

Even Old Brad and Ovilia, who thought they had some idea of Chen Fei’s background, were so stunned their eyes nearly popped out of their heads, to say nothing of the others. The scene was simply too shocking, too astounding!

”You… you…” Hearing and seeing this, the blood drained from Hales’s face.

He might be the top Red Robed Bishop of the Holy Church of the Divine Holy Church, accustomed to arrogance and currently blinded by anger and hatred, but he was not ignorant. He knew exactly how powerful and terrifying an SSS-Rank Mardo wielding the Dark Nether Jade would be.

His face turned ashen, and his heart began to hammer wildly in his chest.

”Mardo, thank you. But there’s no need to make the atmosphere so tense for this sort of trash. If he really can’t wrap his head around it, just let him try to make a move and see what happens.”

Seeing the standoff, Chen Fei simply narrowed his eyes and gave a cold laugh. There’s no need for such a grand display. It’s just a mere SSS-Level Ability User, was all this really necessary?
