Torres was extremely excited. He had fought with the terrifying monster in his mind for three years. He was almost in despair. He did not expect to regain control of his body so easily in the end.

It was just that he had consumed too much mental energy and was too excited. His eyes turned black and he fainted completely.

Li Xiang still had many questions that he wanted to ask, but now it seemed that he had to wait.

“Your Highness, what should we do with these people? The knights below had discovered the abnormality here. Another 300 people are rushing over.”

“Oh! Since this handsome guy has fainted, then let’s take advantage of this time to finish off this cavalry at the foot of the mountain! Alice, Alicia, and Yafei, you guys go and subdue them. But remember, don’t kill or cripple them. Now that we have the Exorcism Tianyin Tree, we can completely purify these people and turn them into our power. One less is considered our loss.”

“That’s right. I can see that these knights should be extraordinary soldiers of this world, and they look very elite. Their aptitude should be not bad. If we nurture them properly, they will have a bright future,” Chen Shu also expressed her opinion with a serious expression.

Li Xiang nodded but then shook his head, “The reason why these knights have their current strength is related to them being corroded by the dark evil force. Therefore, their strength will not be retained after they’re purified. On the contrary, it will decrease by a lot. However, their aptitudes should indeed be among the best in this world. Nurturing them well will make them a good force indeed.”

With several heroes taking action, the knights at the foot of the mountain could not resist at all.

According to the levels of Myriad World Continent, these knights were only around level 100.

However, their strength would only be around level 70 or 80 after being purified.

Only the strength of the leader of the knights, Torres, did not change much even after purifying the evil energy in his body.

From this, it could be seen that Torres had extraordinary strength and aptitude to become the leader of this group of knights.

Li Xiang said to Alice, “Alice, I’ll have to trouble you to make a trip. Have Lys bring the demon army over! There’s no need to bring 100,000 of them. Just 1,000 Dread Fiend Cavalry, 1,000 Flame Demon warriors, 1,000 Vine Whisker Demons, and 1,000 Black Wing Demons will be enough. Let them stay on this hill and guard the teleportation formation here. Get Lys and Modo to lead the remaining commanders stay behind as well!”

“Yes!”

Alice received the order and left, while Li Xiang brought the others to the foot of the hill.

At this moment, the 3,000 black-armored knights were all tied up on the ground, and most of them had already woken up. Each and every one of them had a crimson demonic light flashing in their eyes as they struggled furiously.

Li Xiang ignored these people and directly threw the Exorcism Tianyin Tree in his hand.

The tree that was flickering with a gentle white light flew down from the sky. It did not land on the ground and take root. Instead, it directly froze in the air. At the same time, countless roots that were flashing with a metallic luster extended out from the roots of the tree, and they directly pierced into the crowd below.

Following that, streaks of black light were sucked out through these roots and absorbed into the Exorcism Tianyin Tree.

At the same time, an even denser white light spread out from the tree, accompanied by the mysterious heavenly sound that seemed to be able to purify the soul.

Immediately, all the black-armored knights who were struggling and roaring earlier quieted down. Their faces were filled with confusion.

The auras on their bodies were also continuously weakening and disappearing, and the layer of black air on their faces also quickly disappeared.

Torres, who had been put in the crowd, seemed to have been affected and stimulated by the mysterious heavenly voice. His eyelids trembled and he slowly opened his eyes.

However, he did not immediately get up. Instead, he stared blankly at the sky and listened to the incomparably beautiful music.

It was as if his soul had been trapped in a dark place within his body for the past three years. After countless times of resistance and struggles, his exhausted soul had regained control of his body. In fact, he would have to sleep for a few days at least.

However, under the effect of the mysterious heavenly voice now, the fatigue in his soul was rapidly alleviating. The despair and powerlessness that he had felt before also slowly dissipated. What followed was an incomparable clarity and hope.

Meanwhile, the faces of those knights gradually revealed a look of realization. Many of them even had tears in their eyes. Their expressions were filled with both joy and sorrow.

The joy was that their consciousness had finally recovered. The sadness was that they had done countless evil deeds muddleheaded under the command of the archbishop over the past few years.

Although their souls had been corroded by the darkness, their memories were extremely clear.

“Swoosh!”

A burly man with a full beard suddenly pulled out his sword and was about to wipe it off his neck.

Clearly, he really did not want to live anymore. He wanted to die as soon as he woke up.

However, just as the sword was about to reach his neck, his arm was tightly wrapped by a black light.

Alicia said calmly, “The lord saved you because he wanted you to follow him to save the world. He did not want you to repent for the mistakes you made after being corroded by the darkness. Therefore, your life does not belong to you now, but to the Lord of Dawn. Only he has the right to decide whether you live or die!”

The bearded man originally wanted to struggle with anger, but he suddenly came to his senses after listening to Alicia.

This might be because of the Exorcism Tianyin Tree, which was still in effect. This made the man’s mind extremely clear. He knew that he had almost done something stupid on impulse.

He suddenly turned around and knelt on one knee. He lowered his head and said, “Thank you for your teachings, my lord! Sandro almost did something wrong! You are right. I shouldn’t regret it now, and I don’t have the time to regret it. What I need to do is to eradicate the evil! Praise the Lord of Dawn!”

Li Xiang, who was standing not far away from the periphery, was looking at him with a gratified expression. Suddenly, a notification sounded in his mind.

[Ding! You have obtained 10 points of Religion and a true believer!]

“Huh?” Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.

Yang Mi noticed the change in Li Xiang’s expression and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Just now, this person contributed 10 points of Religion to me and became my true believer! And this is my first believer!”

Yang Mi and the others around her were surprised.

“Didn’t you gain Religion when you protected those country lords? Aren’t those people your believers?” Zhou Yutong asked curiously.

Li Xiang nodded and said, “Those people are indeed not my believers. They are only grateful to me and trust me, but I am not their religion. Moreover, don’t you know the virtue of the Huaxia people? It’s easy for them to thank you, but it’s too difficult for them to truly believe in you.”

“Hehe, now that you mention it. I can understand!”

Yang Mi and Chen Shu also revealed faint smiles on their faces.

The Huaxia people’s understanding of religion was completely different from the people of other countries.

They believed in their own bloodline, their own civilization, and their own ancestors, but they did not have a fixed religion in god.
