The Show Begins, Building the Plank Road in the Open!
Southern Territory.
Unknowing Island.
The Four Heavenly Kings of the Southern Territory have gathered once again.
Zhu Taichong was still the leader.
Meanwhile, those below were reporting on the movements of Chen Ning and Qi Yu over the past few days.
"My lords, ever since Chen Ning Qi Yu away from the Unknowing Pavilion, he has been living... living a life of debauchery."
"What?"
The Mad God looked puzzled.
The Azure-Robed Wanderer and Yuan Xifeng remained calm.
Zhu Taichong remained expressionless, simply listening quietly to the reports from his subordinates.
"They... they seem completely indifferent to the affairs of the Unknowing Island, spending their days leisurely playing around with Hua Xiaodie."
"What about Qi Yu's subordinates? What are their movements?"
The Mad God spoke up and asked.
"Qi Yu's subordinates are just doing routine tasks. Moreover, since the higher-ups took over Unknowing Island, Qi Yu's subordinates have had absolutely no time to complete Qi Yu's orders. Even if someone were to act in secret, they would definitely not escape the eyes of this scoundrel."
How is that possible?
The Mad God simply didn't believe it, and asked doubtfully, "Chen Ning is so arrogant, relying on the Heaven Character Token bestowed by the Yutian True God, and he doesn't even put the Crimson Refinement True God in his eyes. How could they possibly do nothing?"
"What about Hua Xiaodie? Is there anything suspicious about her?"
Yuan Xifeng suddenly spoke up.
The Mad God immediately realized, "Brother Yuan is truly amazing! That Hua Xiaodie grew up with Qi Yu, and she even helped Qi Yu distract Brother Yuan and Duan Tianya before. She's definitely up to something."
The man who reported this glanced at him, as if suddenly remembering something, and said, "My lord, our attention was all focused on Chen Ning and Qi Yu, so we overlooked Hua Xiaodie. But thinking about it carefully, that woman is indeed somewhat suspicious. Hua Xiaodie has visited a certain place several times in the past few days—a temple!"
The temple enshrines powerful beings at the God Realm.
The offerings from the people can enhance the fortune of powerful beings in the God Realm.
The temple on the Unknowing Island is naturally dedicated to Master Geng.
The Azure-Robed Wanderer spoke calmly, "Hua Xiaodie and Qi Yu were childhood sweethearts. When they were young, their family suffered a misfortune, and they received a favor from Master Geng. To repay this kindness, it's perfectly reasonable for Hua Xiaodie to visit the temple. She goes there often, which is why she was able to deceive the inspectors."
Mad God chimed in, "There's definitely something wrong. Chen Ning and Qi Yu are openly drawing our attention while Hua Xiaodie goes to the temple to direct operations. It's quite a clever scheme, but they didn't expect that such a small trick wouldn't fool us at all."
Yuan Xifeng said, "Then let's investigate this Hua Xiaodie."
As he spoke.
He looked at Zhu Taichong and asked, "Brother Zhu, what do you think?"
"Then let's give it a try."
Zhu Taichong's gaze was as calm as a deep pool.
His thoughts are hard to fathom.
The next day.
Inside the temple.
As usual, Hua Xiaodie knelt devoutly before Master Geng's statue and prayed silently.
She wasn't alone in the temple.
Unknowing Island is a pure land.
Master Geng and Qi Yu's extraordinary methods made Unknowing Island increasingly prosperous.
Master Geng was devoted to his own path.
Under such rule, people lived in peace and prosperity.
Qi Yu, on the other hand, was only focused on making money.
This will lead to overall prosperity for the Unknowing Island.
It is precisely because of this purity that the Power of Faith drawn from the temple is extremely strong.
Master Geng's realm of understanding is also very stable.
Moreover, this kind of person.
Both the Crimson Refinement True God and the Yutian True God greatly admired it; of course, this admiration was also a form of exploitation.
After a long while.
Hua Xiaodie got up and followed the temple attendant into a hidden door.
"How was it? Weren't you followed?"
In the dark room, a middle-aged man wrapped in a black robe spoke.
"No."
Hua Xiaodie shook her head, her delicate eyebrows furrowing, and said, "However, I still feel uneasy. They seem to have noticed something. We need to get this done as soon as possible."
"Good!"
The middle-aged man in the black robe nodded.
Hua Xiaodie asked, "How is it? Are you able to contact the Qilin True God in the Eastern Territory?"
"Not quite. Their guard is very strict. Zhu Taichong has sealed off Unknowing Island with an array, so the Voice Transmission Spirit Stone are useless. We wanted to let the others take the opportunity to leave the island, but we haven't fully gained their trust yet."
"We need to Chen Ning. The time given by the Yutian True God is very limited. If we can't get reinforcements from the Eastern Territory in time, the Yutian True God might lose patience."
Hua Xiaodie sighed and said, "In that case, I'll head back first and tell Qi Yu and Brother Chen the news."
"I think we should skip it; you can stay here."
The middle-aged man in black robes suddenly changed his voice.
Hua Xiaodie was startled and looked at the other person in panic, saying, "You... you're not him..."
"I only realized it now, but it's a little too late..."
The person opposite removed their black robe, revealing themselves to be Azure-Robed Wanderer robe.
This is precisely the Azure-Robed Wanderer's specialty.
The person he imitated was so lifelike and perfect.
Even loved ones and close friends couldn't tell the difference.
Just as Hua Xiaodie was filled with terror, a figure walked over from the side. Xiao Dengzi in his hand. He was the spy that Hua Xiaodie had been in contact with all along.
This hidden weapon was also part of Qi Yu's plan.
Extremely mysterious.
He was just a servant in the temple on ordinary days, and his background was clean, making it impossible for anyone to associate him with Qi Yu and his disciples.
But now, he has been captured and is on the verge of death.
