Chapter 1353: Provoking a God
After all, the Northern Continent was the domain of the Holy Court. The Evangelical Ministry did not fully represent the Steam Evangelical Sect, and other reinforcements outside its command were rapidly arriving.Among them was Cardinal Bishop Joseph Norman.
After a series of upheavals, he could no longer sit idly by.
Once Joseph arrived, even if Qi Xuansu was infinitely close to immortality, he would have little chance of survival, just like Chen Shuhua.
Yet, Joseph failed to arrive in time because someone intercepted him.
It was Huangfu Ji.
By himself, Huangfu Ji was no match for Joseph. It would take at least three of him. However, Huangfu Ji had other means. He had not brought so many people merely to deal with a few cannons.
