"Lin Bai, just how many evil deeds have you done? The priest just now actually said that you have committed too many crimes, that you can't even hold their number one church in history?"

After Shen Xiaoyi finished listening to the two Priests' words, he smiled and asked Lin Bai.

"A bad thing is just killing people and setting fire to their gold belts, doing things like forcing people to buy and sell abducting women. "Xiaoyi, I think your appearance is very good. You should be able to sell it for a good price!" Lin Bai acted like a scoundrel, looking at Shen Xiaoyi and threatening him.

"Master, you are a martial arts expert. You are peerless in this world. You can even do evil in this church. This is truly admirable!" After flattering him, Shang Zhuo raised his wrist to look at the time and continued, "Master, when I came, my family's old man asked me to go meet that big client in the business. Do you want to come with me?"

"Sure, let's go together and see how the lives of the rich overseas are like." Lin Bai smiled and nodded in agreement.

The small boat slowly moved across the pitch black river. Lin Bai looked at the layout of the buildings from a gap in the roof of the boat. Although his expression was extremely calm, his heart was filled with waves.

Lin Bai went to the church to repent, but of course, it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. After entering the small black room, he opened his Heaven's Eyes to observe the flow of energy in the church, and in the end discovered a shocking truth.

Not only did the cathedral suppress the destiny of the Italian peninsula, but there was also an extremely strange fluctuation revolving within the cathedral. Even with Lin Bai's level, he was unable to see through the origin of the strange undulation. He could only roughly guess just how this strange undulation came about, and how it came about was extremely deep.

Lin Bai admitted that he had outstanding methods in the field of crosstalk, but after leaving the country, up till now, he realized that it was simply impossible for him to follow the route that he had decided on back home. Moreover, according to the standard of this cathedral, there was probably someone who was not weaker than him among the foreign masters.

If they were to clash in Europe, for example, with Zhang Jingying and that intense conflict that night, would he really be able to guarantee that he would be able to escape safely?! Even if he was skilled in the art of a crosstalk, able to keep his life in the competition, this was Europe, not his territory. If those enemies used other methods, the danger would still exist.

The worst thing was, he still didn't know anything about the enemies who were hiding in the darkness. Why was the chance of the heavens deceived to such a degree? What was the strange energy wave in the cathedral then? Lin Bai's heart was filled with doubts towards the unknown, as well as a little fear.

While he was thinking about this, the boat gradually left the bustling downtown area and arrived at the small pier in front of the wealthy merchant's house. The entire Venice was filled with rivers. Venice Channel was the city's road. There were no cars or bicycles in the city, nor were there any traffic lights. Ships were the only means of transportation in the city. With the exception of the boat, all means of transport are prohibited.

The mansion was very big, so big that Lin Bai felt it was unimaginable. Although Lin Bai felt that it was extremely luxurious when he saw He Shaoyu's villa back in the Kingdom, upon seeing the villa of a foreigner, Lin Bai felt that it was simply a small matter.

This house no longer belonged to the villa, so it would be more suitable to call it a castle. The white wooden fence extended along the two sides of the gate, and one could barely see the end of it. He looked through the white fence and saw a huge garden. The branches were growing and the rain water on the vines was shining under the light.

Behind the garden was the castle and villa. The city wall was five to six meters tall, and its mottled old walls were filled with creeper and other vines. On the walls of the villa, there were even countless stone carvings, which were exceptionally exquisite, exuding a strong sense of ancient history and culture.

Looking at the appearance of the villa, Lin Bai was tempted. He thought that after he returned home, he would spend some money to find a Feng Shui Treasure Land and build an ancient fortress based on the design of this place. At that time, all villas would be trash. That would be the true grandeur.

At the entrance of the villa, there was a row of burly men in black suits and sunglasses holding umbrellas. In the center of the crowd, there was a beautiful woman holding an umbrella for a man in his forties.

The foreigners were different from the Chinese, the older they were, the older they were. The foreigner had a medium build, a high nose bridge, a bald forehead, and a beard that was gray at the temples.

He was dressed in a black suit, white shirt, and white bow tie just like the other bodyguards. Although his clothes didn't look special, he exuded a powerful aura, which made people feel a sense of respect for him.

He was the target of Shang Zhuocai's invitation this time, the richest man in Italy and the godfather of the Sicily Peninsula: Jorva Francis.

Seeing Lin Bai and the rest coming over, Qiao Wa Francis rushed over with a warm smile. He hugged Shang Zhuocai and started a conversation with a loud jabbering sound. Although Lin Bai did not understand what he meant, but looking at the expression of the old man, he knew that it was probably some pleasing words.

They were led into the castle by Giovanni Francis. Seeing that the old man was supported by the beautiful woman by his side but was still able to walk in a vigorous manner, Lin Bai was still a little doubtful. How could the old man, who was like a candle in the middle of the wind, be like Shang Zhuocai had said, where he would shake the entire Sicily Peninsula with a stomp?

Judging from the appearance of the old man, this man was a little weak. How could such a person become a domineering mafia? But no matter what, this Jova Francis gave Lin Bai a pretty good first impression. At the very least, it had the air of a gentleman.

The interior decorations of the castle were almost the same as the outside, all using wooden floors, and the staircase was also made of complicated iron. Whether it was the decorations of the house or the daily necessities, they all retained a strong classical style.

The servant served coffee to the people in the room and left the room. Only Qiao Wa Francis, the beautiful woman and Lin Bai were left in the living room. Fortunately, Shang Zhuocai and the others were familiar with Italian, so they didn't need to explain themselves.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Qiao Wa Francis smiled and pointed to the beautiful woman beside him as he introduced her, "This is Lou Qiya, a theologian that I found from far away in northern Europe. He asked her to help me with some business matters. If you all have the talent, it will be of great help to the future development of your Shang Family! "

The beautiful woman nodded towards the few people seated in greeting with a light smile. When her gaze landed on Lin Bai, a hint of suspicion flashed past her eyes, as if she had encountered a difficult problem.

"Zhuo Cai, there is something I'm sorry to have to inform you of. The transaction between me and your Shang Family may be cancelled! " After taking a sip of the coffee in front of him, he said in a light tone.

With that, the living room immediately became quiet, leaving only the patter of an old clock on the wall as it moved.

Hearing that, the smile on Shang Zhuocai's face froze, he frowned, and looked at Qiao Wa Francis in panic. It could even be said that it was the Shang Family's first time betting all his family assets! Now, Jova Francis suddenly said that they had stopped doing business, this was equivalent to taking the life of the Shang Family!

"Mr. Francis, I thought you and my grandfather discussed the business. Why would such a big change happen?" Shang Zhuocai clenched his fists tightly, his palms were filled with perspiration, as he stared at Qiao Wa Francis and asked.

Joanna Francis waved his hand: "Child isn't this the way to do business? We have no way to change something like this." This time, I am sorry about your Shang Family. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely compensate you! "

"No!" We've already signed the contract, and you're breaking it. You're going to be punished! " Shang Zhuocai wiped the sweat off his forehead and glared at Qiao Wa Francis and shouted.

Giovanni Francis said nothing, smiled, and shook his head. He placed the coffee cup gently to the side, then picked up a small metal box that was emitting some light. He opened it and took out a messy stack of papers.

Then, with his other hand, he took out a lighter from his pocket and lightly lit one end of the pile of white paper. A flame soared high into the air, and in just a moment, the contract which was filled with his and the Old Master Shang's names turned into a pile of black ashes.

"Child, you know who you're talking to right now. In all of Sicily Peninsula, no one has ever dared to talk about punishment in front of me! " Qiao Wa Francis coldly smiled and used his feet to trample the ashes on the ground. He chuckled: "If you continue to talk about punishment or something like that in front of me, I believe you will never see tomorrow's sun!"

Shang Zhuocai bit his lips, staring at the man in front of him who was threatening him with his bald head. He felt that the black shadow behind this man was like a ferocious beast hiding in the darkness, as if it could swallow him at any time!

The living room was quiet, Shen Xiaoyi stared nervously at the two people in front of him, while Lin Bai who was seated beside her had a relaxed and carefree expression, with even a smile on his face.
