Chapter 576 The Rising Demands of Xinxia
Chapter 576 The Rising Demands of Xinxia
"I think I know why she was chosen as a candidate now," said Chief of Staff Allen, gazing at the figure in the wheelchair.
As more and more patients collapsed, some daring healing sorcerers began to break through the barriers to check on the situation. After examining them, they found that none of the patients were in mortal danger; after the lesions disappeared, their bodies were only somewhat weak.
In the vast quarantine area, countless patients lay sprawled on the ground, covering almost half of the quarantine zone.
Perhaps because of the elimination of the epidemic, the expressions on the faces of those patients became much calmer. Suffering from the pain, they fell asleep peacefully to the soothing songs that Xin Xia played for them.
"Thank you, madam!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Countless healing mages bowed to Jiang Han and Ye Xinxia in mid-air to express their gratitude. Some were even moved to tears. You must know that the entire city had been paralyzed due to the rampant epidemic, and countless people lived in fear and despair. Now that the problem has finally been solved, how could they not be excited?
Finally, Darry broke the silence first, asking, "Are you sure everyone's alright?"
"Yes, they've all just fallen asleep and will wake up later, Commander. The plague has been eradicated. This prince is truly amazing!!" An elderly healing mage with gray hair stepped forward and said excitedly.
"We've been researching for so many days and haven't found a cure for this plague, but now it's solved just like that. Indeed, the Parthenon truly deserves its reputation as a sanctuary of healing magic!" Several other elderly healing mages also remarked with great emotion.
In mid-air, after Jiang Han absorbed the last wisp of evil energy into the Soul-Seizing Pearl, the Soul-Seizing Pearl immediately emitted a dark red, eerie light. Xin Xia, struggling to support her exhausted body, said, "Brother Jiang Han, this pearl is too evil. We still need to find a way to deal with it properly."
"Don't worry, it's you who suffered a lot this time." Jiang Han reached out and gently wiped the fine sweat from Xin Xia's forehead.
The Soul-Absorbing Pearl absorbed so much evil energy that it might have been a time bomb in the hands of others, but in his hands it was just a Soul Pearl that could be purified at any time.
After getting off Long Da's head, Jiang Han carried Xin Xia to the room that had been arranged in advance to rest. As for Long Da, he returned to the dimensional space after Jiang Han landed. Commander Darryl and Chief of the Guard Allen wisely did not disturb him. As for the old woman Gu Lan, she was healing her injuries in a corner.
It's true that the Parthenon is a world-class power, but if she goes back and sues Jiang Han for hitting her, she will definitely be the one who suffers. This is because she offended the candidate for goddess first, and given the terrifying strength Jiang Han has displayed, the temple matriarch will not make an enemy of a young mage who may one day stand at the pinnacle of the world for her sake.
Every top power will try its best to win over the world's top experts, even at a small cost. Acquiring a genius is a basic skill of these top powers; otherwise, why would they be so sought after by countless mages?
After Xin Xia woke up, Jiang Han accompanied her around Kaka City for several days, taking many photos as souvenirs.
To thank the two for their contributions during the epidemic, many tourist attractions in Kaka City were opened to them for free, and they were even given a lot of local specialties when they left. After all, their contributions were enormous. If it weren't for Jiang Han and Xin Xia, Kaka City might have been a ghost town by now.

News of the resolution of the Coria plague quickly reached the Parthenon, and the Temple Mother was delighted to receive the news immediately. After Xinxia returned to the Parthenon, the Temple Mother summoned others to commend Xinxia and promote her position.
In the central hall, the Mother of the Temple stood before the statue of Athena, with Saint Andre, the Great Sage Merora, and the Sage Pelissa standing on either side below the steps.
"You did an excellent job this time. The Koria Magic Association and the official government have sent us letters of thanks and promised that we will no longer charge any taxes on the Koria Black Rhododendrons needed by our Parthenon Temple in the future," the Temple Mother said with great satisfaction as she looked down at Xinxia.
Black rhododendron is a very rare medicinal material in the Parthenon. In the past, Koria would charge high tariffs when purchasing black rhododendron. The Great Sage and the Sages had considered purchasing this medicinal material from other places, but only Koria's black rhododendron was of the best quality, so they had to purchase it from Koria on a long-term basis.
Under normal circumstances, it's fine, but when the demand is huge, the tax burden of purchasing black rhododendrons each year can be quite staggering.
To everyone's surprise, the Kolya government exempted them from relevant taxes due to the epidemic, which saved them a considerable amount of money.
None of them accomplished this; it was Ye Xinxia, the new goddess candidate who was being harassed. She not only resolved the epidemic but also gained many supporters in Koria.
If we were to ask who in the hall regretted it the most, it would naturally be Saintess Ander who tripped up Ye Xinxia. If she had known things would turn out this way, she would never have agreed to Merora's proposal.
The latest novel is first published here!
Previously, there were only eight candidates for goddess of the Parthenon. Now, there is Xinxia, who doesn't have many supporters. Although the others may have some grievances, they dare not express them. After all, Ye Xinxia was recommended by the temple matriarch.
Apart from Xin Xia, the other candidates all have considerable prestige in some places. Whether they can make it to the end and become the goddess depends on who has the highest voice in the world. Once a candidate's voice is heard all over the world, then she is not far from that position.
