Ye Xunhuan observed Olivia's subtle changes intently, and couldn't help but feel a surge of confusion.
What's going on with Olivia, how come she reacted this way when talking about the Vatican's guardians?
Could it be that she has some sort of grudge against these guardians of the Vatican?
Amidst Ye Xunhuan's confusion, Olivia slowly began to speak, "Did Michelle tell you?"
Ye Xunhuan nodded, "Yeah, she said that's the Vatican's foundation!"
"That's right, they're the Vatican's foundation, the most powerful and mysterious force of the Vatican. Just like your Protectors of Huaxia, they guard the Vatican," Olivia said seriously and solemnly. "At the same time, they are also one of the most powerful forces in Europe!"
"The Vatican relies on this power to remain unassailable, and it's also this power that keeps anyone from daring to touch the Vatican!"
As everyone knows, the Vatican is one of the countries with the smallest territory and population in the world, also known as a country within a country.
Though geographically small, the Vatican holds as significant influence in political and cultural fields as a big nation would!
If the Vatican was really just a small, insignificant country, given the American Empire's antics, they would have messed with the Vatican long ago, and Italy, which surrounds the Vatican, would likely have swallowed it up too!
"So you're saying this force is so strong that it causes unease for the Vatican, and even all of Europe?"
Olivia nodded, "Indeed, this force is frightening. If a holy war were to break out with your Protectors of Huaxia, they would undoubtedly be the top force!"
"This time, the mysterious figure's appearance probably made Louis realize the severity of the situation, hence the need for thorough preparation!" Olivia said softly, "After all, there aren't many people in this world who could kill an Earl and slay the Tarot Death with one strike, and that person clearly appeared because of you or your wife, meaning it's very likely they're from Huaxia!"
"Do the Vatican's guardians usually avoid taking action?"
"That's right, their existence is to hold back the Protectors of Huaxia along with other major European forces!" Olivia explained to Ye Xunhuan. "But given what happened this time, they'll probably get involved!"
"They'll definitely try every possible means to find out who that person is, and in doing so, they'll surely target you or your wife." Olivia's tone shifted dramatically, "Michelle is probably trying to warn you to be careful of those people, lest you be used by them!"
With a meaningful glance, Olivia swept her eyes over Ye Xunhuan, "Still, impressive that you could get the Vatican's saintess to tip you off. Now tell me what's really going on between the two of you, did you corner her against the wall?"
Ye Xunhuan's mouth twitched upon hearing Olivia's words.
He didn't mind the idea of cornering Michelle; after all, she was the revered saintess of the Vatican. The very thought of letting someone like her submit beneath him was unbelievably thrilling.
But if he really were to corner Michelle, Ye Xunhuan would have to seriously consider the gravity of the situation!
"I've never gone that far..."
"If you get the chance to bring her down, making a saintess into a fallen woman would make you famous for ages!" Olivia gave Ye Xunhuan a knowing look and said, "Plus, even if you did corner her, who's going to know, right?"
"You make a compelling point!"
"Then go find an opportunity..."
"Why don't you go to hell!" Ye Xunhuan said irritably, "Olivia, don't overreach. Do you want me to die?"
"Coward..."
"If you're so capable, why don't you do it yourself!"
"I would if I could do that!"
With that, Olivia's gaze slowly fell to Ye Xunhuan's groin, and the meaning was all too clear!
Three black lines appeared on Ye Xunhuan's forehead uncontrollably.
...
After Ye Xunhuan and the others returned unharmed to Olivia's residence, they didn't go out again, staying in the villa for a good rest.
As nightfall approached, somehow the Demon King learned of Olivia's residence and came over.
Yet, he wasn't there for Olivia but to find Ye Xunhuan.
However, in front of Olivia, the Demon King appeared very apprehensive, seemingly even fearful of Olivia.
It was as if he had been thoroughly subdued by Olivia in the past.
"Why so tense, little Demon King? I won't eat you..."
"Bah!" Ye Xunhuan interrupted before the Demon King could speak, "Shameless, calling yourself sister after living for centuries..."
Olivia's face immediately darkened, "Bastard, how many times do I have to tell you, don't talk about age..."
With that, Olivia moved to strike Ye Xunhuan.
But Ye Xunhuan wasn't stupid; he wasn't going to stand there and let Olivia beat him up. He quickly dodged to the side!
"You say don't mention it, but don't you think you're taking it too far?"
"Say it again, and I'll tear your mouth apart!"
"Bring it on, I'm not afraid of you!"
"You..."
Victoria, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but gently touch her forehead, "Blood Phoenix, why are you stooping to his level? You've known him not just for a day, his mouth knows no bounds..."
Upon hearing Victoria's words, Olivia let out a heavy snort, "Little bitch, I'll deal with you later!"
Ye Xunhuan didn't take Olivia's threats seriously at all and turned to the Demon King, "Demon King, thanks for your help this time!"
"It's nothing, small matter!" the Demon King said dismissively, "Where's your wife, I haven't seen her around?"
"She's upstairs. Did you need something from her?"
"No, nothing!" the Demon King shook his head, "I need to talk to you about something!"
"What is it?"
"Can we talk outside?"
Ye Xunhuan agreed without hesitation.
Once the Demon King and Ye Xunhuan stepped outside the villa, the Demon King let out a long breath as if Olivia had put great pressure on him.
"Are you really that afraid of Olivia?"
"Aren't you afraid?"
"What is there to be afraid of?" Ye Xunhuan said nonchalantly, "Just don't provoke her!"
"What if I told you I've provoked her before?"
Ye Xunhuan was taken aback, then seemed to recall something, "Almost forgot, you're a battle maniac, part of a warlike nation. Did you challenge her and ended up with a bruised face..."
Ye Xunhuan's words seemed to hit a sore spot for the Demon King, and his facial muscles twitched immediately!
Ye Xunhuan took in the slight changes on the Demon King's face and chuckled, "Actually, she's beaten me up too, just like you. No need to be embarrassed!"
"Really?"
"Why would I lie? Sometimes I even think about when I can get revenge on her, how about we team up and give her a good beating, to let off steam?" Ye Xunhuan suggested.
It seemed like the Demon King had been heavily intimidated by Olivia, as he quickly shook his head and retracted, "You'd better find someone else!"
"Pathetic!" Ye Xunhuan said disdainfully, "By the way, what did you want to talk to me about?"
