Li Qixiu’s self-destruction was not harmless. Many cultivators in the Lower City were hit by the aftermath. Some unlucky ones even died instantly, their spirits and bodies completely annihilated.
The Chen Family Manor remained intact, but some areas had become ruins. Liang Sheng, leading Huang Qiang and others from the Immortal City, instantly silenced the entire Lower City.
Originally, there were people in the ruins searching for their undamaged belongings to save their losses, but upon seeing Chen Quan and his imposing group, they immediately hid and dared not act recklessly.
Fortunately, “Chen Quan” didn’t pay much attention to them. He directly took his people to stay in the Chen Family Manor and didn’t take any immediate action.
At this time, Huang Qjang was still boiling with excitement, all set to make a big stir, but was stopped by Liang Sheng.
“Think thrice before acting to avoid any oversights. The Church of All Beings’ rebels have existed for so long. If they had been easy to find, why had the previous efforts been futile?” he said.
Instructed by Liang Sheng, Huang Qiang and the others, impatient as they were, had to temporarily suppress their excitement, calm their emotions, and wait for Liang Sheng’s final decision.
In fact, Liang Sheng did not want to make much noise in the following actions. The situation of the Church of All Beings was under his control, and he was in no hurry.
So, to avoid Qingfeng’s urging, he especially explained his plan to make preparations before taking actions, which naturally got Qingfeng’s affirmation.
Then Liang Sheng retreated to his mansion. After ensuring no one would intrude, his Divine Sense immediately concealed itself and went to the Upper City.
As for the Church of All Beings, actually it held no meaning to Liang Sheng. At this moment, he needed only two people—
City Master Zhen Yuan and that mysterious white-haired Kaiyuan Child with great powers!
Immortal City, City Lord Mansion.
As City Master Zhen Yuan and Kaiyuan Child returned, the manager Xu Jintian had been waiting outside the City Lord Mansion for a while. Seeing them return, he hurriedly welcomed them.
City Master Zhen Yuan didn’t mind Xu Jintian. Over the years, he had become accustomed to Old Xu’s presence.
While walking, he discussed with Kaiyuan Child, expressing some dissatisfaction in his remarks. He was very close to succeeding but eventually failed.
However, upon reflection, he felt something was wrong, but he couldn’t point it out. So he could only sigh that he had underestimated the remnants of the Church of All Beings. He didn’t know that the current situation was to a large extent due to Liang Sheng’s subtlety.
“Senior Brother Kaiyuan, everything is my fault. If I hadn’t allowed the remnants of the Church of All Beings to grow previously, my Longevity Immortal City wouldn’t have been in such a state,” he said.
Kaiyuan Child shook his head. His voice didn’t fluctuate much. “Actually, you can’t be blamed for this, my junior brother. After all, considering today’s situation, the remnants of the Church of All Beings are indeed from the Seeking Truth Rebel Lineage.
Moreover, based on the method of the rebel turning into a Demon Body at the end, they are likely from the Seeking the Truth lineage that refines flesh horizontally, and they don’t cultivate properly.
However, the Seeking Truth rebels are best at disguising and infiltrating. The current situation is indeed somewhat difficult to handle, but I previously promised you that I would help you through the Human Tribulation. Until I succeed, I won’t return to the Immortal Dynasty.”
“Senior Brother!”
Hearing this, City Master Zhen Yuan was moved. Then he quickly ordered Xu Jintian to prepare the Celestial Jade Dew to treat Kaiyuan Child well.
By now, the Left and Right Envoys had also returned to the Immortal City and set up the patrol and inspection plan for the Immortal City. So, they specifically went to the City Lord Mansion to report.
Since it was a coincidence, City Master Zhen Yuan naturally asked them to accompany him and listened to the report from the two while eating.
Indeed, the capability of the Left and Right Envoys was great. They made the entire Immortal City inspection plan foolproof.
If there were still problems, it could only mean that the strength of the Church of All Beings was much higher than they had imagined.
So City Master Zhen Yuan didn’t say much at this time. He simply asked the Left and Right Envoys to act freely. His previous bad attitude was just because of Xiao Qixiu’s self-destruction in front of him, which had somewhat confused him.
The Left and Right Envoys breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. During this period, Zhen Yuan also asked about the situation of “Chen Quan”. Fortunately, Liang Sheng had already made preparations before.
So after hearing Qingfeng explaining “Chen Quan’s” idea of planning before moving, City Master Zhen Yuan didn’t forget to praise him a bit, saying that Qingfeng’s training of his subordinates was in place.
Bright Moon had a full smile on his face and highly praised “Chen Quan”, but his heart was heavily gloomy.
Next, he had to work hard to perform better than Qingfeng, otherwise once he fell behind, he would always be behind. By then, it would be hard to catch up.
When the banquet ended, Clear Wind and Bright Moon immediately excused themselves and left, leading the people from the Internal and External Affairs Bureau to start a thorough investigation of the entire Upper City of the Immortal City.
As for Xu Jintian, he leisurely directed his subordinates to clean up the banquet after he finished arranging the closing work of the banquet. Then he directly went back to his own room.
At the same time, Li Qiming stayed at home, very anxious. At this time, he also received instructions from the Church of All Beings and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Safe!
But then he shed a silent tear. From now on, the Li Family had to rely on him to support, because his elder brother would never be there anymore.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the City Lord Mansion, full of resentment.
One day, they will stand on top of the City Lord Mansion, celebrating their freedom, no longer having to hide anymore.
Lower City.
Liang Sheng suddenly opened his eyes.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with disbelief. He didn’t expect that Xu Jintian would also be a member of the Church of All Beings.
