Upper City.
The Church of All Beings wants to kill people.
However, how to kill and who to kill – Xu Jintian felt that he still needed to consider, since it’s all for the survival of the Church of All Beings.
Xu Jintian wasn’t so rash as to start a killing spree, which would only lead to self-destruction and ruin their foundation.
Everything needs to be done step by step and without impulsiveness. Immortal City’s tight layout might not affect the life and death of the Church of All Beings in a short time.
Xu Jintian’s actions are only for precautions. The Church of All Beings has survived so far due to their cautiousness.
They have to wait until the situation is clear enough to know who to kill and how to kill.
Even if he bears the sin, he will never regret it. Everything he does is for the survival of the Church of All Beings.
Lower City.
Outside Chen Family Manor, Gourmet Street.
Liang Sheng was still leisurely strolling around. This time, he didn’t go to Old Yang’s shop, but casually chose another one, which surprised the shop owner.
Indeed, when Liang Sheng left, the shopkeeper was grateful, holding a piece of Mid-Grade Spirit Stone tightly in his hand.
He made a fortune!
Meanwhile, Old Yang’s shop was also doing well. As he busied himself, he kept an eye on Liang Sheng’s movements.
Whether it was due to being in the dark or not, according to the intelligence from the church, the Cleaning Department was now monitoring all regions of the Lower City with great strictness.
However, because he was in the Chen Family Manor area, the situation here was much more relaxed than elsewhere.
Although the Cleaning Department’s people were working hard, “Chen Quan” remained lazy, but Old Yang didn’t dare to underestimate him.
This “Chen Quan” was extremely cunning. He had been pretending to be harmless for years. The plan for monitoring the Lower City was proposed by him, so Old Yang had to be careful.
Since Li Qixiu’s self-destruction in front of City Lord Zhen Yuan, the top of the Church of All Beings hasn’t sent any Elders to manage the situation in the Lower City. They only told them to continue to hide and remain silent.
As a result, the Cleaning Department under the City Lord’s command was busy in the Lower City, while the Church of All Beings remained motionless and maintained a state of inaction.
For a while, the two sides maintained a strange balance, but this was only temporary. Something unexpected would be discovered over time.
Liang Sheng still maintained his daily life routine, and the Cleaning Department’s subordinates were still desperately searching for traces of the Church of All Beings in the Lower City.
Because they also hoped that one day, their loyalty would be seen by the Left Envoy, and they might have the same opportunity for rapid promotion as “Chen Quan.”
Zhou Family was a newcomer in the Lower City, but with Zhou Ye as their liaison, nothing unexpected happened.
In the blink of an eye, another month passed.
Early in the morning, Liang Sheng woke up with a fragrant body in his arms. He couldn’t help but stretch lazily, feeling that this splendid life was not a waste of his long lifespan.
Today, in a good mood, he gave an opportunity to the Giving Bodhisattvas. After all, one must give rewards occasionally, lest their expectations turn to disappointment.
He needed someone in Yaoxiang Pavilion to represent him and show his worth from time to time.
For example, today’s Giving Bodhisattvas got lucky. After Liang Sheng left, there were screams of joy in Yaoxiang Pavilion. News spread, making other Lower City cultivators envious.
Last night, all the Giving Bodhisattvas who served “Chen Quan” reached Qi Refinement Completion. They even received Foundation Establishment Pills as gifts from “Chen Quan.”
Everyone else was jealous, and some in Yaoxiang Pavilion scolded themselves for not being patient enough and giving up a great opportunity halfway through.
However, Liang Sheng was unconcerned with the joy and sorrow of others. Now that he had the power to protect himself, all he wanted was a carefree life.
He didn’t want too many cause and effect ties. In fact, Liang Sheng was a ruthless person. Aside from his relationship with Jin Quanxiu’s master and disciple and the Zhou Family’s past, he had forgotten to help Xiang Chen’s disciple.
At that time, he didn’t remember that he had such a junior nephew, and all he cared about were the people around him.
After all, they were all passersby in the world. Over the long years, even Jin Quanxiu and others would eventually turn to dust, and the cause and effect would end.
On his way back, Liang Sheng shook his head. This was his path, destined to end up alone in the end.
At this moment, the Cleaning Department’s cultivators who were on the move saw Liang Sheng and quickly saluted. Liang Sheng told them to carry on as usual and not to mind him.
Liang Sheng had already received news that the investigation in the Upper City wasn’t going well either. The atmosphere in the entire Immortal City was somewhat peculiar.
In such a situation, as the person in charge of the Lower City, he shouldn’t achieve anything, otherwise, how would the Left and Right Envoys save face?
However, plans always lag behind changes. Since the Church of All Beings was seeking their own demise, they couldn’t blame him for the trouble they brought upon themselves.
He really just wanted to live a peaceful life, but some people always tried to make things difficult for him.
Unbeknownst to Xu Jintian, who was being monitored silently by Liang Sheng, the plan he had been carefully plotting for a month had already been exposed to Liang Sheng..
