Chapter 625 -419: Royal Family Banquet_3

At this moment, the Prince seated at the main table suddenly spoke.

“Of course, Prince Dazlert.”

Duke Abilama was well aware of what he was holding. With the Prince requesting an inspection, he couldn’t have been happier and promptly handed over the vial to a royal attendant, to deliver it to the Prince.

Under the watchful eyes of the audience, the Prince removed the stopper from the bottle and took a light sniff, his brows knitting slightly.

“This smells like tap water, with a faint scent of disinfectant.”

After making his assessment, he was about to take a sip when he was stopped by the stewards behind him.

“Your Majesty the Prince, you must not!”

Head Steward Babayeh walked over to the Prince, humbly offering to drink it himself.

“In that case, Babayeh, see for yourself what this ‘Holy Water’ really is.”

The Prince smirked and passed the object in his hand to the Head Steward.

The latter didn’t waste words, simply tilting his head back to take a drink. After a moment of silence, he spoke:

“This is just tap water.”

The crowd couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.

The Generous Council actually deceived believers with tap water for their treasures?

What a scandalous affair!

Word of this wouldn’t only tarnish the reputation of the Generous Council; even the official Empire and the Sun Royal Family would be impacted, given that the Seven Righteous God Churches were designated by the Royal Family.

“Jack, how do you explain this?”

The Prince looked sternly at Chen Lun.

It seemed that if he couldn’t provide a reasonable explanation, the consequences would be very severe.

Chen Lun slowly stood up, bowed to Prince Dazlert, and then spoke indifferently:

“This is merely Duke Abilama’s side of the story, and the ‘Holy Water’ in his hands does not originate from the Generous Council. As to where it comes from, I am not certain…”

“You mean Uncle Abilama is slandering you?”

The Prince said gravely.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Chen Lun spoke calmly.

“The Royal City Generous Church does indeed offer a kind of ‘Holy Water’ to believers, but it’s not a scam made from ordinary tap water… It possesses true supernatural power, capable of Healing injuries and diseases, and delaying aging.”

He took out a Golden Cup filled with Fountain of Youth Water.

“This is the real ‘Holy Water’, Your Majesty can inspect it.”

Seeing this, the Prince nodded his head and turned to ask Head Steward Babayeh to retrieve the Holy Water from Chen Lun’s hand.

This time, after Babayeh consumed a mouthful of Fountain of Youth Water, he raised an eyebrow.

“Indeed, as Mr. Jack has said, this is an extraordinary item, filled with a rich Life Force… not only capable of Healing injuries and diseases but also prolonging life.”

The guests all showed a look of surprise, extraordinary items given out to believers?

The Generous Council is truly worthy of its name, sufficiently generous…

Chen Lun took this opportunity to add:

“As a newly recognized Righteous God Church, the Generous Council strives to protect its believers; how could it deceive them for money and trample their bodies as Duke Abilama suggests…”

Duke Abilama’s smile gradually faded, watching him expressionlessly.

Chen Lun then took out two more potions developed by Maggie, called “Pearl Maiden Beauties,” and handed them to Head Steward Babayeh. He bowed to the Prince and the Princess and said:

“These are two potions made from the Holy Water, with more potent effects. After taking them, not only do they delay aging but also enhance one’s Charm and cognitive agility… Here, as a gift for the Empire’s celebration, presented to Your Majesties the Prince and Princess.”

The Prince chuckled lightly, nodding in appreciation.

But then, Duke Abilama suddenly interjected:

“Baron Jack Spett, you say I am slandering you, but those dozen or so believers who were sent to the hospital because of the ‘Holy Water’ are real living proof! You…”

“Shut up.”

Princess Anna suddenly said coldly.

The crowd looked at her in surprise, and even the Prince was taken aback.

Princess Anna turned to look at Duke Abilama, who appeared baffled, and said slowly:

“Duke, I know you have a good relationship with Archbishop Terence, but that is no reason for you to deliberately trouble Jack in such a setting. Put an end to this nonsense, I don’t want to hear you speak anymore.”

Duke Abilama was first stunned, then took a deep breath and bowed humbly to the Princess. He knew the several cards he still held in his hand were now of no use… with Princess Anna speaking out, it meant his plan had failed.

Chen Lun was somewhat surprised, not knowing why Princess Anna would speak for him, but this also made him look towards the Sun Church’s dining table, where Terence glanced at him expressionlessly.

“I have had some misunderstandings with Your Eminence Terence in the past, and here I offer my apologies…”

With a smile on his face, Chen Lun bowed in the direction of the Sun Church.

“However, during the last suppression of the Rothfuss Family, I had a tacit cooperation with Your Eminence Terence, and I hope there will be opportunities like that in the future.”

The Pope of the Sun Church, Diferni, and the other high-ranking members remained silent, acting as if Chen Lun did not exist. Yet Terence, under the gaze of everyone, put down his cutlery, wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and nodded at Chen Lun.

“There will be such opportunities, Jack,” Terence said lightly.

Chen Lun acted as if he hadn’t heard the coldness in Terence’s tone, his smile unchanging.

“In that case, please continue with your meal, everyone.”

The Prince gestured with his hand.

The guests, witnessing the end of this intriguing scene, felt regretful; they would have preferred even fiercer conflict… that would have been more interesting.

“What a pity…”

The high-ranking members of both the History and Ritual Association and the Hailing Group thought privately.

Meanwhile, the high-ranking members of the Moon Sect, Constellation Sect, and Madman School remained silent throughout, seemingly indifferent to the situation.
