When Qian Wendao said that he had been the Yusi, the leader of the [World-Destroying Church] in the previous Safe Zone, Qin Siyang was utterly stunned.
He stared closely at Qian Wendao for a long time, unable to reconcile this decisive Secretary-General with the [World-Destroying Church], whose members brought up gods at every turn.
"You were... the Yusi of the [World-Destroying Church]?!"

He looked like a wealthy man who had lost everything overnight.
