Chapter 172 Who is his backer?(1/2)
The Lord of the Holy King City looked at the noisy crowd with a dark face.
"That's enough, that's it, no one is allowed to trouble him!"
"City Lord..."
Everyone's expressions changed, and they looked at the Lord of the Holy King City in confusion. However, the latter dismissed everyone's ideas with a mother's doubtful attitude.
"Didn't I make it clear enough?"
When he looked at everyone, the warning and threat on his face were not concealed at all.
In fact, he was also very helpless about Lin Qiye.
There is a guy in his territory who is beyond his control in all aspects. As usual, he has to take care of it and let the guy sort out his priorities.
But before he could even take action, he received a warning from a transcendent force.
The other party solemnly declared that Lin Qiye was their focus and they would not allow him to attack him.
The big boss behind that force was already on an equal footing with the emperor of the Great Shang Empire, so he naturally did not dare to make any mistakes.
"Lord City Lord, we have no objection to your decision, but should you give me a reasonable explanation?"
From the side of the main hall, an arrogant middle-aged man stood up.
"That's right, the master of the Yingsheng Temple is so unscrupulous in trying to win over people's hearts. If it takes a while, he might be able to ride on all of us."
Several people nearby echoed.
Looking at the disrespectful guys, the Lord of the Holy King City looked a little ugly.
They are immortal-level powerhouses who live in the territory of the Holy King City. They rarely show up on weekdays and enjoy the worship of the Holy King City. They will only take action when the Holy King City is in danger.
Now, the leader of the Yingsheng Temple suddenly appears, unscrupulously trying to win over people's hearts, and has unknowingly affected the benefits that should belong to them.
Everyone couldn't sit still immediately and wanted to beat the guy who didn't understand the rules.
"Huh, what a bunch of idiots!"
The Lord of the Holy King City was offended by both sides and couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"Don't you think about it, why is he, a small temple owner, so unscrupulous? If he doesn't have a backing behind him, how dare he be so unscrupulous?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present's expressions froze.
Someone asked aloud.
"Does that guy have a backer? Which force does he belong to? In any case, he was the one who made the mistake this time. What can we do even if we teach him a lesson?"
Half of the immortal-level experts present had a backstage.
Among them are top forces like Zhanxie Cult, which can rival the royal family.
The various forces have made an agreement with the royal family of the Great Shang Empire very early on, that is, immortal-level powerful people must not easily interfere with the lives of the people.
Like this war in the southern wilderness, it has had a major impact on the people in the area under the jurisdiction of the Holy King City.
Although no one died, because of Lin Qiye's operation to recruit monsters, the residents of the entire Holy King City began to want to change their current lifestyle.
"That guy's backstage is much stronger than you think. In short, I will say this. If anyone wants to trouble him again, please do so. But if something goes wrong by then, don't blame me for not warning you.
.”
The Lord of the Holy King City said with a cold face.
Because the envoy of the transcendent force did not allow him to leak too much information, he did not dare to directly explain who the backer behind Lin Qiye was, and could only mention it in a vague way.
Everyone present felt awe-struck when they saw that the normally arrogant city lord was so fearful.
"Could it be that his backer is..."
"As long as you know, don't say it."
Some people vaguely guessed that force.
A group of immortal-level experts never dared to mention teaching Lin Qiye a lesson.
at the same time.
Lin Qiye, who had a strong backer, had no idea at this moment that a big trouble had been quietly resolved.
At this moment, he was explaining something to the butcher and others in the Chenghuang Temple.
"What? The one who invaded this time turned out to be an immortal-level evil spirit? No wonder the aura I sensed before is very familiar, that is the power that worsened my infection before!"
After Lin Qiye briefly talked to a few people about the situation of his battle with the immortal-level demon, the Butcher immediately remembered that the power that caused him to die and turn into an evil spirit was the demon that Lin Qiye faced.
.
"This is really troublesome. According to the information I have, every time those evil things are sent out, they will never give up until they achieve their goals. Sir, although you have repelled that guy this time, he will definitely come back soon."
And, when he comes again, he will definitely not be the only one, and maybe he will bring an army with him!"
The butcher's expression was extremely solemn. His previous organization was dedicated to fighting against evil spirits, and he knew some of the habits of evil spirits.
But Lin Qiye knows more about these things than he does.
What really bothers him now is that the seven evil demons are a race that he doesn't understand at all. Without enough information, if he goes up against such a large army, he will easily suffer a big loss.
"I summoned you here this time just for this matter."
Lin Qiye looked at several people and said.
Before calling everyone over, he contacted Owl Nian.
Originally I wanted to ask him if Luo Xiaobei had any information about the evil spirits, but unexpectedly he got some unexpected results.
Owl Nian was not idle while waiting for news from Luo Xiaobei. Instead, he had been collecting information about major forces and potential masters near Holy King City in the Holy King City.
Judging from the information he collected.
The strongest force in the Holy King City is the city lord's lineage, followed by the branch of the evil cult.
In the entire territory under the jurisdiction of the Holy King City, it can be roughly confirmed from the information collected by Owl Nian that there are six immortal-level powerful people.
Among them, there are two from the city lord lineage, one from the Zhanxie Cult branch, and three others whose origins are unknown. It is only known that someone has seen them several times in the city.
A large part of the reason why Owl Nian was able to obtain this information was because of Lin Qiye's battle with the Seven-Headed Demon.
Because of his stimulation, the existence of dragons that usually appear but never come to an end appeared.
"Evils may invade at any time. My power may be able to protect myself, but it cannot guarantee the safety of you and the people here."
"But don't worry too much. I have some countermeasures on hand. As long as we implement them quickly, we will definitely be able to compete with the invading evil spirits in the future."
The Butcher and others had no doubts about Lin Qiye's abilities.
They only thought that the invasion of evil spirits was just accidental, and they did not know that the real target of those evil spirits was Lin Qiye.
Therefore, the harm of evil spirits was far underestimated. On the contrary, the butcher became a little worried about another problem in front of him.
"Sir, those evil things may not be anything to you, but our recent rapid development has probably alarmed the Lord of the Holy King City. If this continues, I'm afraid he will come to trouble us soon.
Already."
Chang Shi and others' expressions also changed slightly.
The Lord of the Holy King City is considered outstanding among the immortal-level powerhouses, and behind him he has the support of the emperor of the Great Shang Empire.
If they were to be attacked, even Lin Qiye would have no room to resist.
"Don't worry about this matter, I will handle it myself."
Lin Qiye waved his hand.
He also knows that if he develops too quickly, he may attract jealousy and suppression from local bosses.
But after all, we are all human beings. As long as we bring out the evil things, we won't fall out over some resources that are of little use to them.
After all, there is no competition among human monks for incense.
Their fight for things in the secular world is just to accumulate wealth for their subordinates.
It is rare in the secular world to be able to attract the attention of an immortal-level powerhouse.
"From now on, you must strictly supervise the demons. I will create an army of golden elixirs in the shortest possible time!"
Lin Qiye said as he handed a thick stack of information to several people.
"These information are top secret. I have listed the core parts. Only a few of you can view them. Except for the marked parts, the rest can be circulated to the demons."
Several people took the information doubtfully.
Initially, they had no idea about the golden elixir army that Lin Qiye mentioned, but as they read through the information, they couldn't help but have a look of shock on their faces.
"This... is there such a way to improve one's cultivation level in this world?"
"What a powerful awakening potion. The lowest level one can allow a mortal to complete foundation building! The higher level one can even help to transform into a god!"
"And these, the secret casting techniques recorded here can actually create weapons and equipment comparable to high-level magic weapons!"
"Oh my god, if we can get enough potions and equipment, wouldn't we be able to create an invincible army of transformed gods?"
The butcher and others were shocked. They had never heard of such a way to mass-produce masters.
