Worldwide Simulation Era - Chapter 674
674 The Holy Infant Temple’s Incense Was Stolen?
Now, it seemed that mortals were still not up to the Heavenly Star Daoist’s standards. Other than Lonemoon and the rest being taken hostage, the ordinary residents were unaffected.
“I wonder how Lonemoon and the others are doing.”
Lin Qiye spread out his divine sense and instantly covered an area of 3,000 miles around the pagoda.
However, after searching a few times, he still could not find Lonemoon and the others.
!!
It made him frown.
Previously, the Heavenly Star Daoist had used the Jieyin Token and the world’s power to teleport to their side. Lonemoon and the others had been left behind by him. Logically speaking, they should not be in any danger.
Wan Meng, standing to the side, also noticed the abnormality.
“Master, Lonemoon and Black Dragon don’t seem to be around. Sister Yan and the others aren’t around either!”
Lin Qiye pondered for a moment before saying, “It seems like it’s because of the Heavenly Star Daoist. They don’t know about our situation, so hiding is the best choice.”
Wan Meng nodded.
The Heavenly Star Daoist had captured Lonemoon and the others earlier and had barely kept them alive. Naturally, they would not return to the Tata Village to put themselves in danger.
“What should we do now? Should we go and find them?”
In the search for world power, it wasn’t that the stronger one was, the more advantage one would have.
It was almost entirely dependent on luck.
A lucky person might even be hit by the world power when they go out to take a piss.
If one was unlucky, one might find nothing even if one searched the world for thousands of years.
“Not for the time being. They’re quite injured, so let them recuperate for a while. Let’s rebuild Tata Village first, and when they come back and hear the news, they will naturally return.”
Lin Qiye shook his head slightly.
Looking for Lonemoon and the others now was a waste of time.
After all, the world was vast, and it was too difficult to find a few people aimlessly.
On the contrary, after he rebuilt Tata Village and spread its reputation, they would know that he had returned.
The two landed near the Holy Infant City God Temple.
Many of the surrounding buildings were affected by the battle and were destroyed.
However, most had been repaired and looked both familiar and strange.
As they walked on the road, the residents laughed and talked, unlike those who had just experienced a great disaster.
“This time, it’s all thanks to Lord Deity. If he hadn’t arrived in time, we would have died at the hands of the demons.”
“That’s right. Since Lord Holy Infant and the Little Saints passed away, the demons’ attack has been unstoppable. I’ve heard that billions of people from the four great empires have fled here, but they all died on the way. Sigh, what a sin!”
“Let’s not talk about those anymore. Let’s hurry to the Heavenly God Hall to pay our respects. As long as Lord Deity is here, those demons will not dare to set foot!”
Lin Qiye and Wan Meng frowned at the comments of the passersby.
“Master, our territory seems to have been taken over by some guy!”
Wan Meng had been guarding Tata Village with Lin Qiye for quite some time, so she was familiar with the situation.
The residents here had only recognized “Lord Holy Infant.” Why did a “Lord Deity” suddenly appear?
“Let’s go. Let’s first take a look at the City God Temple.”
Lin Qiye’s face darkened as he led Wan Meng to the front door of the City God Temple.
At this moment, the gate had been completely refurbished. Even the signboard on it had been replaced.
The original “Holy Infant City God Temple” sign had been replaced with “Heavenly God Temple.”
Lin Qiye walked further in.
The Holy Infant sculpture had long disappeared, and what occupied its position was a sculpture of an old man with an ethereal appearance.
Seeing the statue, Wan Meng couldn’t help but cover her mouth.
“It’s him!”
Lin Qiye was frowning as well.
The statue that had taken his position was none other than the Heavenly Star Daoist.
“Hmph! I was wondering why that guy didn’t attack the people here. It turns out he wanted to take over my believers.”
Lin Qiye snorted coldly. With a wave of his hand, he smashed the statue of the Heavenly Star Daoist into pieces.
The surrounding residents who had come to pay their respects turned pale on the spot and knelt uncontrollably.
“Who are you? How dare you act so atrociously in the Heavenly God Hall!”
Lin Qiye’s actions immediately attracted the nearby guards.
They were led by two human cultivators at the Human Immortal Realm. Lin Qiye didn’t recognize them.
“Bah! What Heavenly God Temple? This is the City God Temple of the Holy Infant!”
Wan Meng stood up with her hands on her hips.
Although Lin Qiye’s cultivation had regressed to the peak of the Human Immortal Realm, he had broken his connection with Wan Meng, so her power was not affected. She still maintained her state of the initial stage of the Celestial Realm.
Facing two guys in the Human Immortal Realm, she didn’t take them seriously.
Seeing that it was only a little girl who had jumped out, the two guards could not help but be stunned for a moment. They discovered that they were unable to see through her cultivation.
The two knew that some powerful fiend cultivators could transform, so they didn’t dare to be careless.
“May I ask …”
“Let me ask you. Who had you put that old geezer’s statue here? Don’t you know that this is my master’s territory?”
Wan Meng pointed at their noses and questioned.
As soon as her words fell, not only the two guards but the believers who had come to pay their respects were also stunned.
Her master’s territory?
This used to be the Holy Infant’s residence!
Could it be that this little girl was a follower of the Holy Infant?
Sensing the unfathomable energy fluctuations from Wan Meng, everyone present, including the two guards at the Human Immortal Realm, became respectful.
“May I know who you are?”
“Hey, I’m the one asking you! If you don’t answer my question, I’m flipping out!”
When she didn’t get an answer, Wan Meng immediately rolled up her sleeves, looking like she was about to beat someone up.
However, her actions did not scare the crowd. Instead, some believers watching the show could not help but laugh.
Only the two guards, who were Wan Meng’s targets, were breaking out into cold sweats.
Wan Meng’s aura suppressed the two of them, causing their legs to tremble.
“Master cultivator, please spare us! We, we are only following orders!”
The two hurriedly said.
“Following orders?”
Wan Meng turned to look at the silent Lin Qiye, then back at the two.
“Whose orders?”
“It was our King. Oh, the king of Country Man. It was him. He asked us to build the deity statue here and be responsible for guarding it!”
In the face of the oppression from a Celestial ace, how could the two cultivators in the Human Immortal Realm withstand it? They betrayed their master on the spot.
“The king of Country Man?”
Lin Qiye was a little confused as he listened.
How did this matter get involved with Country Man?
He walked to the two men and looked at them coldly. “Tell me. What’s going on?”
“You- You are!”
When the two men on the ground saw Lin Qiye’s face, they were so shocked that they collapsed.
“Holy Infant? It’s the Holy Infant! The Holy Infant is still alive!”
“The Holy Infant is back!”
When the fiends in the crowd saw Lin Qiye, they were initially confused, but their confusion quickly turned into joy.
The crowd looked at him to confirm their suspicion, and then they rushed over excitedly.
Lin Qiye’s frown deepened.
As his emotions fluctuated, the invisible pressure around him quickly calmed everyone.
Everyone who saw his existence knelt and kowtowed with a face full of sincerity and excitement.
“Lord Holy Infant!”
Most residents of Tata Village knew what Lin Qiye looked like. Even if they had not seen him personally, they had seen him in portraits.
Although the two guards were from Country Man, Lin Qiye’s image had long been widely circulated among the Immortal Realm experts in the secular world. The two guards could not recognize his aura, but they could recognize his face.
“My master is asking you a question! Hurry up and tell us the truth!”
Wan Meng seemed to enjoy the worship of the believers, even if she wasn’t the one being worshipped.
She looked at the two guards with her hands on her hips, her head raised high.
The two guards only came back to their senses after Wan Meng berated them.
However, when they looked at Lin Qiye, the fear on their faces intensified.
“Lord Holy Infant, it’s none of our business! This is the king’s order. We were forced to do this!”
The guards did not dare to hide anything from the dark-faced Lin Qiye.
They spilled everything that had happened during this period…
