Exorcist’s Self-Cultivation

11 PM late at night.

Du Wei and Jon’s flight gently touched down at the St. Bodia airport.

When they had set off, it was just past three in the afternoon, it took them a full eight hours to reach the Church Headquarters.

…

The religious culture in St. Bodia was very intense.

In the last century, when the Church had not yet declined, St. Bodia was entirely led by the Church, all power belonged to the Church, and this place was a paradise for believers.

But as the Church weakened, leadership no longer belonged to the Church, yet no one else took the opportunity to entertain other ideas.

After all, for the decision-makers, the existence of the Church was very important.

As long as its development was controllable and stable, no one would fuss about it.

Outside the airport.

All unrelated individuals had already been evacuated, and the order at the scene was maintained by the Church’s members.

Hundreds of clergy dressed in black attire stood waiting outside the airport with umbrellas, with vehicles parked everywhere, the atmosphere solemn and somber.

And in the waiting hall inside the airport.

Dozens of bishops stood still, among them Mrs. Senna, Bishop Thompson.

In front of them stood a dozen burly, stern-faced bodyguards.

The bodyguards were dressed in gray suits, bearing silver breastpins on their chests, carved with an ancient castle.

Clearly, it was the Wittebach family crest.

And behind the bodyguards, there was a table.

Alex looked indifferently at the old man sitting opposite her, who was smiling affably, feeling very impatient inside.

She really disliked dealing with people using her family’s status, especially with those of high standing.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have lived alone in New York all the time.

The elderly man across from her took the initiative to speak, “Miss Alex, your father has already called me. I’m not sure how long you plan to stay in St. Bodia, so we can make arrangements to welcome you.”

Alex replied coolly, “Archbishop Skadi, I think you might not be clear about my purpose. I’m purely here to pick up my boyfriend. I couldn’t be bothered with anything else.”

The reason she rushed to St. Bodia ahead of Du Wei was to prevent anyone from harboring ill intentions towards him.

After all, the Church could not be out of touch with modern society.

As long as she was there, no one would dare to play any tricks.

Archbishop Skadi replied amicably, “Exactly, your boyfriend is Mr. Du Wei. He is an exorcist greatly valued by the Church, and I also take great interest in him.”

Alex deliberately said, “Exorcist? As far as I know, my boyfriend is a hunter. Archbishop Skadi, it seems like you know too little.”

The smile on Archbishop Skadi’s face remained unchanged; of course, he was aware of Du Wei’s identity as a hunter.

In fact, Jon’s call had been made to him, explaining everything very clearly, including Alex’s visit to the Church Headquarters.

So he quickly said, “Miss Alex, your boyfriend should have told you about his role as a hunter. The reason I still refer to him as an exorcist is that we do not intend to expose his hunter identity nor treat him in the way hunters are treated.”

Alex’s expression softened slightly. “That’s for the best. He is my future husband, the son-in-law of the Wittebach family, so he and I will stay in St. Bodia for one day and will return to New York on time tomorrow.”

Archbishop Skadi said with a smile, “Then, on behalf of the Church, I welcome both you and Mr. Du Wei.”

While they were talking.

Some clergy members escorted Du Wei and Jon into the waiting hall.

Alex’s eyes immediately lit up, and she stood and walked forward to greet him. Seeing this, Archbishop Skadi discreetly waved his hand to the others.

At that moment,

Mrs. Senna and Bishop Thompson approached with their group, each one with a look of goodwill on their face.

Even those who disapproved of the situation had put on a smile.

Soon,

Du Wei spotted Alex running towards him, and with a quick glance at the others, he grasped the situation.

He had spoken to Alex over the phone around 10 o’clock that morning; she had left earlier than him and her early arrival was not a surprise.

But Alex didn’t think too much about it. She directly embraced Du Wei, while her other hand pinched his waist fiercely.

Being angry was inevitable.

In Du Wei’s ear, she whispered softly, “I’ve already solved the problem for you. If you try to hide anything from me again, I won’t help you anymore. Let you suffer on your own, do you understand?”

Du Wei wrapped his arms around Alex’s slender waist and hummed softly in agreement.

Although he was confident that even without Alex’s help, he wouldn’t have run into trouble, he never skimped on the gratitude he felt.

So, he spoke gently, “Thank you, darling.”

He felt that after an incident like this, it would be unlikely for the church to have any conflicts with him again.

Unless the existence of Evil Spirit Du Wei was uncovered by the church.

But then, Archbishop Skadi and the others approached.

Du Wei thought for a moment and then gently tapped Alex on the shoulder, “People are watching…”

"They’re such a nuisance…” Alex muttered and reluctantly let go, yet didn’t release his hand.

And this scene, when witnessed by the others, took on a different meaning.

The women were okay, but the men regarded Du Wei with complex expressions. The Wittebach family was not just any small family, it was a large financial conglomerate with an ancient history.

What incredible luck it must have been to win over the daughter of the Wittebach family.

This was beyond being just a winner in life.

It was like living in a dream.

However, if they knew that Du Wei and Alex’s relationship started because of the Antique Clock, it’s likely that no one would envy them.

A cursed and mysterious Antique Clock, even for an Elite Exorcist, would be enough for a dozen deaths.

Even for a hunter, facing the unleashing of a curse, the probability of survival would be pitifully small.

Jon coughed slightly and walked up to Archbishop Skadi, showing respect with a bow.

Then, he turned to Du Wei and said, “This is Archbishop Skadi who is basically in charge of church internal affairs.”

Du Wei nodded, “Hello, I’m the Exorcist Du Wei responsible for the Evil Spirit incident in New York. I’m very pleased to meet you.”

Archbishop Skadi smiled kindly, “Hello, I have always been interested in you; I must say, you’re one of the most outstanding young men I’ve ever met.”

Du Wei smiled faintly, such words were good to hear, but not necessarily to be believed.

At that time, Archbishop Skadi hesitated for a moment and then said to Du Wei, “The church has some plans for your future. If it’s convenient for you, I hope the two of us can have a chat.”

"Oh, not now, of course. After all, you’re with Miss Alex at the moment. How about tomorrow? Then I can also introduce you to your predecessors.”

Du Wei nodded and said, “Of course, that would be fine.”
