“It’s time for us to move as well. The Temple has been corrupted by those decaying old fools. They have forgotten the tenets of the God, and it is time for us to rise up,” Alicia’s voice was clear, cold, and resolute, each word carrying an undeniable power.

In her eyes, the Temple of Radiance had once been a sacred and revered existence, bearing the will of God and protecting all in the world. But now, those old fools in high positions of power were blinded by power and desire, scheming against each other all day long, fighting for power and profit, casting the original doctrines and tenets of the Temple to the back of their minds, turning this once sacred place into a miasma of decay.

She slowly raised her head, her gaze passing through the stained glass, looking into the distance, as if she could already see the magnificent scene of change that would be ushered in after her rebellion.

Behind her stood a group of followers who were equally dissatisfied, their eyes filled with determination and zeal. They were all utterly disappointed with the current state of the Temple, and usually influenced by Alicia's ideas. Hearing her words at this moment, the fire of resistance that had been suppressed in their hearts for a long time was instantly ignited.

“Lady Alicia, we have been waiting for this day for a long time! We are willing to follow you and fight to restore the sacred glory of the Temple!” A young clergyman clenched his fists and said excitedly, his words echoing among the surrounding crowd.

For a time, the small church resounded with passionate responses, the voices gathering together as if they were a bugle call to declare war on the corrupt forces.

Alicia nodded slightly, and said solemnly: “Everyone, the road ahead will inevitably be full of difficulties and obstacles, but we bear the mission of God. In order to let the radiance shine on the world again, and let the Temple return to its true self, even if we pay a great price, we must never retreat. Now that the imperial situation is turbulent, and all forces are struggling to protect themselves, it is a great opportunity for us to act. In the name of God, we will cleanse the filth of this world and make those who betray God's will pay the price they deserve!”

With that, she flicked her robe and took the lead towards the outside of the church, her steps firm and powerful. The followers behind her followed without hesitation, their figures gradually disappearing into the sunlight outside the church, and a storm initiated from within the Temple was about to quietly unfold in this turbulent empire.

During this period, Soren had been busy dealing with crises from all sides, racking his brains to plan how to protect the stability of the empire and how to fight for the greatest benefit for the royal family in the game of many forces.

However, he never expected that his previous actions to prevent Alicia from taking over the three mazes for the sake of the empire's interests would lead to such unexpected consequences, causing Alicia to do things that were completely different from history.

In the original, predetermined historical trajectory, Alicia might have followed a relatively smooth path, performing her divine duties step by step in the Temple of Radiance. Even if she was dissatisfied with some of the corrupt phenomena in the Temple, she might have only accumulated strength in secret, waiting for a suitable opportunity to slowly plan for it.

But now, because of Soren's obstruction, it was like throwing a boulder into a calm lake, completely disrupting her original plan and rhythm.

Alicia's anger at the current state of the Temple, which had been suppressed in her heart, was infinitely magnified after repeated setbacks, and then transformed into a more radical rebellious sentiment.

She was no longer willing to wait patiently, no longer satisfied with following the seemingly safe but slow way of change.

Instead, she decided to rise up and challenge those corrupt old fools in the Temple with an almost all-or-nothing attitude, trying to use her own power to reshape the order of the Temple and restore what she believed to be the tenets of God.

If Soren knew all of this now, he would probably be filled with remorse. His original intention was only not to let the three mazes fall into the hands of someone who might have ulterior motives. After all, the power and resources contained in the mazes were too important to the empire. He never expected that this series of chain reactions would lead Alicia down such a variable-filled path.

In the current complex situation, Alicia seemed to have deviated from the original, predetermined game trajectory, and the plot was developing in a direction that Soren had not expected. Many things had already exceeded his control.

But at this moment, Soren was still kept in the dark, completely unaware that Alicia's side had already set off a different kind of wave due to his past actions, quietly changing the direction of the entire situation.

At this time, Soren was focused on preparing Emily for her breakthrough to the Saint Realm.

Soren carefully took out two potential breakthrough potions.

“These two potential breakthrough potions are what I managed to allocate after many efforts. I hope you don’t let me down.” Soren said, handing the potion to Emily, his eyes full of affection, as if telling her of his trust in Emily and his earnest hope that she would successfully break through to the Saint Realm in the future.

Emily took the potion, looked at the hard-won treasure in her hand, and was naturally very moved.

She knew the rarity of this potential breakthrough potion, and also understood that Soren must have put in a lot of effort to obtain them.

Her eyes were slightly red, and her eyes flickered with a light of emotion and determination. Her voice was slightly choked, but she replied with incomparable firmness: “I love you, Soren. I will never let you down. From now on, I will become the sharpest sword in your hand.”

In Emily's heart, Soren's deep affection for her made her willing to give everything in return. She was determined to successfully break through to the Saint Realm with these two potions, improve her strength, and in the future, no matter what difficulties and obstacles she faced, she would protect Soren like an indestructible blade, helping him gain a firm foothold in this treacherous situation and protect everything they cherished.

Hearing Emily's affectionate and determined words, Soren smiled with relief. He gently held Emily's hand and said softly: “I believe in you, Emily, you can definitely do it. When you successfully break through to the Saint Realm, we will be able to face these many challenges together, protect our empire, and protect our future.”

The two looked at each other, their eyes full of love for each other and longing for the future, as if the complicated situation around them was temporarily forgotten, leaving only this tender moment that belonged only to the two of them.

Shadow stood aside, almost vomiting. He finally understood why the Crown Prince was able to get the support of so many female powerhouses.

This shamelessness is definitely the most in the history of the royal family.
