"Okay, master."

Tom took a step back and bowed ninety degrees, "I won't let you down, Master."

David nodded and helped Tom up with a smile, which made Ye Yuanfeng and Cai Ji feel confused, as if Henry IV treated David this way.

Thinking of this, Cai Ji, who was standing at the end of the team, couldn't help but shake his head and whispered to him: "Yezi, do you think you can beat this Tom?"

"Why don't you ask if I can beat David?" Ye Yuanfeng asked back with a frown.

Cai Ji raised his eyebrows and said seriously: "Yezi, unless you are the kind of genius swordsman who is rare in a century, I don't think you can beat a veteran who has been on the battlefield and has experienced many moments of life and death. As for Tom, although he looks very jumping, I can feel that he is bluffing, and I can be sure that he has an 80% chance that he has never seen blood."

Speaking of this, Cai Ji pointed to his eyes and said, "My system has slightly strengthened my vision, so I just saw clearly Tom's movements when he took action. At the beginning, his dagger was very stable, as if he had practiced thousands of times in advance, and it was straight to David's throat. But when he was halfway through, Tom suddenly became timid and pressed the dagger down a little. In this way, even if his dagger touched David's neck, it would be at most a little skin injury."

"Yes, I was paying attention to Tom's every move just now. I found that before he was about to take action, he had a look of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and his hand touched the dagger several times. This reminded me of myself who had just started the actual practice exercise. At that time, my master asked me to attack him with a knife that had already opened the way, but I was hesitant and dared not take action."

Ye Yuanfeng sighed and said seriously: "I definitely can't beat David, because no matter whether it is Tom's dagger or Callehong's sword just now, I won't be able to block it with a sword. It would be good if my body could dodge a blow; as for Tom, if we are purely competing, I will definitely win him because I have a weapon advantage, but if I change to a Miao sword created in this era, or fight with him with my life, I think I'm more than 50% of the chance of losing!"

Just as Ye Yuanfeng was whispering to Cai Ji, David had simply completed the ceremony of taking in disciples.

"From now on, Tom, you will be my apprentice. Your future achievements will definitely not be worse than your younger brother."

David patted Tom on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Let's go, it's time for us to meet your brother, and then we'll take him with another archbishop to the Vatican to expose Lord's conspiracy!"

Tom nodded, pointed to the front and said, "My brother and the Archbishop are hiding in the warehouse in front."

Five minutes later, Ye Yuanfeng and Cai Ji looked at Qiong'an sitting opposite, and their expressions became strange, because in their eyes, the bishop looked like a young woman dressed as a man, but Henry IV and others treated "ta" as a man, even though Qiong'an's accent sounded very feminine.

For a moment, Cai Ji and Ye Yuanfeng didn't know whether they were making a mistake or Henry IV and others pretended to be confused because they understood.

"Bike Joan, I am the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Henry IV."

After reporting his name, Henry IV said seriously: "Knight Losrik and I are friends of age, so when I heard that you and Archbishop Cromwell escaped from Canosa Castle, I decided to turn back and help you escape this disaster. Therefore, if nothing else, let's leave here and go to the Vatican now."

Qiongan nodded, stood up and said, "Since His Majesty has said that, I am not as respectful as I obey my duty; but I still have a question to ask His Majesty, is the death of the Pope related to you?"

Henry IV frowned, but he didn't expect that Joan would suddenly ask himself this question.

"Your Majesty, you don't know anything. Qiongan and the Pope are both teachers and friends, so they care so much about the sudden death of the Pope. Moreover, except for His Majesty, no other outsiders appeared around the Castle of Kanoza. In addition, you are unwilling to accept this time and are reluctant to come to see the Pope, so many Cardinal Archbishops thought that you killed the Pope."

Looking at Henry IV, whose face was getting ugly, Cromwell changed the subject and said, "Of course, when Lord began to put us cardinal archbishops under house arrest and wanted to seize the position of the Pope, we knew that he was actually the one who killed the Pope, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to frame you."

Hearing Cromwell say this, Henry IV's expression finally returned to its original state, "If I have the ability to kill the Pope in Canosa Castle, then I would not have been forced to come to Canosa Castle to apologize to the Pope, so I can tell you clearly that the Pope's death has nothing to do with me; if it is related, I should have left the Pope's Kingdom now."

Looking at Henry IV with a serious face, Joan sighed and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I didn't mean to offend you."

Henry IV also sighed, shook his head and said, "It's okay, if I were you, I would think I might be the murderer, because the timing of my arrival was really a coincidence; so let's set off now to win over the Cardinal Archbishops who don't know the truth before the people of Lorde completely control the Vatican, and to join you... Now my relationship with the Holy See is still very bad, so I can only send you to the Vatican and then go directly to Frankenia."

"Then I'll go prepare the horse now!"

Tom stood up and said, "My father always thought that Joan might cause trouble, so he secretly raised several horses in the village to ensure that Joan could go to the Vatican as soon as possible after something happened to him."

"Then I'll go with you. You can't hold so many horses alone." David stood up and said.

...

"Mu Yao, why don't you look like a man at all? If you put it online to vote, 100% of people will think that she is dressed as a man." Liu Xing couldn't help but complain.

Mu Yao rolled her eyes, shook her head and said, "It seems that Liu Xing, you don't understand my good intentions. You can't even understand such obvious thoughts as me."
