The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior - Chapter 434 - 434: An Old Acquaintance

“Almost there, almost there!”

Under the radiance of the Sunrise Holy Stele, two priests on the brink of collapse were extraordinarily excited.

Even though their teammates and the instructor had sacrificed themselves, the arrival of the rescue squad proved that the Church Court hadn’t truly abandoned them.

Though somewhat delayed, it was enough to persuade themselves.

“Brilliant!”

The dazzling Holy Light drew ever closer, and to them, that sound was like celestial music.

To be honest, they did not fear death and were absolutely willing to die for their faith, just like the instructor who kindled the Holy Flame with his life.

The collapse of faith was truly what they found unacceptable.

Now, the Holy Light symbolizing the arrival of rescue appeared to them as a kind of redemption, the redemption of their faith.

This, to them, was extremely important.

At that moment, a massive wave of Holy Light Energy emanated from the front, causing them to gasp involuntarily.

The Power was so pure, even stronger than the blessing given by the Archbishop when they set out.

“This… is a bit too much, isn’t it?” The priest with slightly curly hair murmured in shock.

His companion, a somewhat plump priest, was evidently also startled by this wave, muttering, “This can’t be possible…”

It should be known that the ‘Plague Apocalypse’ Alternate Space has a level cap of Level 40. Anyone above this level cannot enter the space.

Thus, anyone who can enter ‘Plague Apocalypse’ is undoubtedly below Level 40, like them, maxing out at Level 40.

Yet…

Now they encountered an impossible situation, where someone whose level could at most be equal to theirs at Level 40 could wield such pure Holy Light Energy!

Perhaps ordinary Holy Professionals couldn’t detect it, but the two of them were outstanding among their peers and had a keen perception of Holy Light Power.

Clearly, they could sense that the Holy Light from the person within the miasma was evidently above that of the Archbishop.

The two exchanged glances, seeing not only shock but also questions in each other’s eyes.

As far as they knew, there was probably no one within the Church Court below Level 40 who could reach this level!

There weren’t even many who could surpass them.

While they were in shock, a Golden Feather slowly drifted down from the space, and as elites trained by the Church Court, they recognized it at a glance.

“Holy Light Feather!”

The two exclaimed in unison, instantly recognizing the skill.

Recognizing the skill and combining it with the other person’s level, the identity is already evident…

“It’s him…” the curly-haired priest said with a dreary expression.

They thought they had awaited the rescue from the Church Court, but it turned out that not only was there no rescue, the arrival was the Church’s most hated adversary.

The little plump one was also a bit taken aback, but he bowed his head in a low sigh, “It’s Lin Ye, should have known it was him.”

The Sunrise Holy Stele was right here, so how could Lin Ye possibly give it up once he knew?

After all, the so-called Holy Artifact is actually a dedicated weapon for the Holy Flame Priest. To put it simply, currently, only Lin Ye in the entire world can fully unleash the power of the Sunrise Holy Stele.

Besides him, even if the existence from the Holy Core made a move, they couldn’t fully harness the power of the Sunrise Holy Stele.

But how did Lin Ye know the Sunrise Holy Stele was right here?

They should know the information about them carrying the Sunrise Holy Stele into this Alternate Space was classified.

Along the way, they avoided all surveillance and secretly entered the Anomalous Spatial Rift. It could be said that apart from a few people in the Church Court, no one else knew about their mission this time.

Then, how did Lin Ye know the Sunrise Holy Stele was here?

Even though, as a wielder of Holy Flame Power, Lin Ye could sense the fluctuations of the Sunrise Holy Stele, such sensing should have been entirely ineffective over the immense distance between the Alternate Space and the Human World…

Unless…

Their faces grew increasingly grim, clearly realizing that things might not have been as simple as they thought from the start.

As the two were lost in thoughts, more and more golden feathers fell, with some landing on the Holy Flame ignited by the Sunrise Holy Stele.

The golden feathers were instantly ignited, transforming into flames interwoven with gold and white. At that moment, as these feathers burned, the surrounding feathers also started to ignite.

The scene was like a prairie fire starting from a spark, where the Holy Flame began to spread.

The sky seemed to rain fire.

The poisonous miasma melted away like snow under the sun, vanishing swiftly.

This town, covered by miasma for countless years, became clear for the first time, and the burning golden feathers across the sky seemed to bring the town back to its former glory.

The miasma continuously melted in the Holy Flame.

And the two priests finally saw the man who had caused them such inner conflict.

At the other end of the street, a young man strolled leisurely toward them, the surrounding flickering flames appearing to exalt him.

From this moment, their thoughts of rescue from the Church Court were completely shattered.

They hadn’t awaited a rescue, but an unexpected intruder.

In silence, the two drew their magic staffs, blocking the path in front of the Sunrise Holy Stele.

They knew very well that Lin Ye was here to seize the Sunrise Holy Stele…

And as members of the Church Court, they couldn’t just let Lin Ye take the stele, unless he stepped over their corpses.

They were well aware that the two of them couldn’t possibly stop Lin Ye.

But driven by a sense of mission, they had to stand up and stop Lin Ye from taking the Sunrise Holy Stele.

Finally, Lin Ye stopped at a distance of less than ten meters from them.

“Is it really Instructor Ouyang?” Lin Ye was somewhat surprised to recognize the middle-aged man who sacrificed his life to forcibly activate the Holy Stele.

Hearing this, the two priests exchanged strange looks at Lin Ye.

“You… you recognize Instructor Ouyang?” the curly-haired priest asked.

Lin Ye couldn’t help but smile at the question.

He indeed recognized him; in his previous life, after joining the Church Court, he’d had a brief period serving under Instructor Ouyang.

He never expected that in this life, they’d meet again under such circumstances.
