After touring Resurrection Island, Li Qinwu had spent nearly two months on Agricultural World 496B. It was about time for him to return to the main fleet.
The main fleet was about to emerge from the Warp and arrive at the first planet after leaving Terra. Li Qinwu needed to oversee the trade and Inquisition review matters.
After saying goodbye to his family, Ye Ying said to Li Qinwu:
"You should go take a look at the Imperial Cult Spire. Their Psychic Church has already been completed, and they're just waiting for you to install the Saint's Remains."
Li Qinwu said he understood. After bidding his family farewell, he took transportation to the Imperial Cult Spire.
The Imperial Cult Spire was one of the few old powers that remained after Li Qinwu's reforms.
This was mainly because The Devout One, that old man, was an exceptionally pure and devout believer. He focused on religion and stayed out of politics.
Under his influence, the Imperial Cult members of Agricultural World 496B were quite well-behaved and did not participate in politics.
The separation of religion and politics was one of Li Qinwu's basic principles. If the Imperial Cult on Agricultural World 496B dared meddle in politics, Li Qinwu would have the Knight Guard organize a Hive City running competition.
Fortunately, after Li Qinwu agreed to provide resources to help them build a Psychic Church, the Imperial Cult immediately gave up all of its secular influence.
The so-called Psychic Church was located in the Spire of the Hive City, on the site of a Spire that had originally belonged to the Imperial Cult.
Nearly the entire Spire had been demolished and rebuilt. Every stone brick at the Tower
