496 Could His Backing Be?
The Holy King City’s City Lord looked at the noisy crowd with a dark expression.
“Enough. This matter is settled. No one is allowed to find trouble with him!”
“City Lord…”
Everyone’s expression changed as they looked at the City Lord in confusion. However, the latter’s attitude was unquestionable, and he rejected everyone’s ideas.
“Am I not clear enough?”
When he looked at the crowd, he did not hide the warning and threat on his face.
In fact, he was helpless about Lin Qiye’s matter.
A guy who was out of his control in all aspects had appeared in his territory. As usual, he had to clean up and let that guy know his priorities.
However, the City Lord didn’t even have the time to take action before he received a warning from a transcending power.
The higher-ups had clearly stated that Lin Qiye was their main focus and would not allow him to lay a hand on him.
The bigwigs behind that power were already on equal footing with the Emperor of the Shang Empire. Naturally, he didn’t dare to act rashly.
boxn ovel. c0m“City Lord, we have no objections to your decision, but shouldn’t you give everyone a reasonable explanation?”
From the side of the hall, a middle-aged man with an air of arrogance stood out.
“That’s right. That Temple Master is gathering the hearts of the people without any restraint. After a while, he will probably ride on our heads.”
A few people beside him echoed.
Looking at the few people who did not give him face, the City Lord’s expression turned ugly.
They were Immortal Realm experts who lived in the territory of Holy King City. They rarely showed their faces and enjoyed the offerings of the people. They would only act when Holy King City was in danger.
Now that a Holy Infant City God Temple Master had suddenly appeared and gathered the people’s hearts without restraint, it had imperceptibly affected the benefits that should have belonged to them.
They couldn’t sit still and wanted to knock some sense into that guy who didn’t know the rules.
“Hmph, a bunch of idiots!”
The City Lord could not help but feel a little angry at being bullied on both sides.
“Why don’t you all think about it? He’s just a small temple master. Why would he be so unscrupulous? If he didn’t have any backing, how could he be so reckless?”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expression froze.
Someone asked, “That guy has a backer? Which faction did he belong to? No matter what, he was in the wrong this time. So what if we teach him a lesson?”
Half of the Immortal Realm experts present had backers.
Among them were top forces like the Evil Slayer Sect, which could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the royal family.
Among the various powers, there was an agreement with the Shang Empire’s royal family a long time ago. Immortal Realm experts were not to interfere with the lives of the commoners.
For example, the war in the southern wilderness had already had a major impact on the people under the jurisdiction of Holy King City.
Although no one died, because of Lin Qiye’s recruitment, all the residents of Holy King City’s territory began to want to change their current lifestyle.
“That guy’s background is much more powerful than you think. In short, I’ll say this. If anyone wants to find trouble with him, go ahead. However, if any problems occur, don’t blame me for not warning you,” The City Lord said coldly.
Because the emissary of the transcending power didn’t allow him to reveal too much information, he didn’t dare to say who Lin Qiye’s backer was. He could only vaguely mention it.
Seeing that the City Lord, who was usually so arrogant, acted fearful, everyone’s heart trembled.
“Could his backing be…?”
“It’s good that you know. Don’t say it out loud.”
Some people could vaguely guess which force it was.
The Immortal Level powerhouses no longer dared to mention teaching Lin Qiye a lesson.
At the same time, Lin Qiye, who had a powerful ‘backer,’ had no idea that a huge problem had been resolved.
At this moment, he gave orders to Butcher and the rest in the temple.
“What? It was an Immortal Realm invader? No wonder the aura I sensed earlier was so familiar. That’s the power that infected and worsened me!”
After Lin Qiye briefly explained the situation of the battle against the Immortal Level demon, Butcher immediately recalled that the power that killed him and turned him into an evil spirit was the demon Lin Qiye had faced.
“This is going to be troublesome. According to the information I have, every time those evil beings are dispatched, they won’t stop until they achieve their goal. My Lord, although you’ve repelled that demon this time, it won’t be long before it returns. Moreover, when it returns, it won’t be alone. It’s even possible that he’ll bring an army!”
Butcher’s expression was unusually grave. The organization he was in specialized in fighting against demons, so he knew some of their habits.
However, Lin Qiye knew these better than he did.
What he was truly worried about right now was that the Seven-Headed Demon was a race that he didn’t understand. Without sufficient information, he would suffer a huge loss if he faced such an army.
“I’ve gathered you all here for this matter,” Lin Qiye said as he looked at them.
Before he gathered everyone, he had contacted Gui Nian.
He had wanted to ask if Luo Xiaobei had gotten any information about the demons, but he did not expect to get some unexpected gains.
Gui Nian was not idle while waiting for Luo Xiaobei’s news. Instead, he had been collecting information about the major forces and the potential experts in the vicinity of Holy King City.
According to the information he gathered…
