As Sofia left the grand hall, a red-robed archbishop quickly stood up and paid homage to the Pope.
"Your Holiness, Sofia is the woman designated by the Heavenly Father. If we offer her to Eastern Divine Continent now, what shall we do when the Heavenly Father descends?"
The archbishop's face was filled with extreme anxiety, worried that the Bright Church might be punished by the Heavenly Father for this deed.
To have trained a saintess for twenty full years, the purest virgin under heaven, only to hand her over to someone else.
This was no doubt a desecration of the Heavenly Father!
The consequences of blasphemy were very serious!
"There is a saying in the East: 'The boat will straighten itself when it reaches the bridgehead.' There is no need for you to worry too much about this matter."
The Pope took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
In fact, the Pope felt a bitter taste in his heart too, as he didn't want to hand over Sofia either!
But he had no choice!
