At the same time, in a mysterious place in the Gold Moon Continent, in the Golden Moon Hall of the Blood Demon Church …
In the huge deep well, as before, the sacrifice of the Devil's Eye continued. 360 living people had their bones crushed by the wooden puppets, and then they were placed at the bottom of the cave to form the sacrificial pattern of the Devil's Eye.
Screams, cries, begging for mercy, and cursing filled the entire cave.
Then, in the dense holes on the walls around the deep well, snake-like strange insects crawled out of the holes and quickly rushed toward the Demon Eye's sacrificial totem in the field.
The people who were sacrificed became food for the strange insects, but they could not move. They could only watch themselves and the people around them being devoured by the strange insects bit by bit.
Death was a luxury for them.
Unspeakable fear, pain, and despair boiled in the deep well, overflowing and dissipating in the void as if they were being devoured by an invisible big mouth.
The invisible consciousness energy that finally erupted from the sacrificed people was full of negative and desperate aura. It was the last struggle of life, the last curse, endless darkness and pain …
The two moons in the sky shone in through the gaps in the surrounding towering mountains. The moonlight converged into a blood-red light that shone on the eyeball of the Devil's Eye at the bottom of the deep well.
The blood-red eyeball seemed to come alive. Countless strange insects wriggled on the bodies of those people, as if the eye was gently blinking.
…
In the palace above the deep well, the palace master, who was wearing a black robe, had a devilishly handsome face, and a trace of blood in his eyes, was sitting on the throne in front of a huge Demon God statue in the palace. He coldly looked at the dense crowd standing in the palace.
"The Five Demons entered Shangjing City. Until now, four of them have died, but Shangjing City is still singing and dancing. The strength of the Shang Dynasty is really unexpected. Who can tell me, is Shangjing City of the Shang Dynasty a forbidden area of our Blood Demon Church? When did Beitang Zhao become so strong?"
The young man's voice echoed in the palace. It was neither happy nor angry, but it was full of an oppressive aura. No one could answer.
The young man was about to say something, but at this moment, the void above the deep well seemed to split open. An unimaginably terrifying pressure and will suddenly descended on the huge Demon God statue in the palace.
The eyes of the huge Demon God statue slowly opened, revealing a pair of blood-red eyes.
With just a glance, everyone in the hall was forced to kneel on the ground by the terrifying pressure, trembling physically and mentally.
The Demon God had descended … The Demon God had descended …
Everyone was screaming in their hearts, trembling in awe. Every living being was like a speck of dust in a storm, completely surrendering in front of that terrifying power ….
"Pass down the order of the Demon God. From now on, all the members of the Demon God Church who worship me in all the continents in the Yuanqiu World are to kill the Space Walker Xia Pingan at all costs. Whoever can kill Xia Pingan, no matter who it is, I will give him the Eternal Divine Spring to help him condense the Body of Immortality. Whoever can sacrifice Xia Pingan to me will receive the Blood of the Demon God. I will personally ignite the Divine Fire and condense the Divine Wheel …"
The extraordinary will and voice surged like a tsunami, echoing in the whole world and everyone's consciousness.
After the voice and will had dissipated for quite a while, those who were kneeling in the hall recovered from the indescribable pressure and will and stood up in fear and trepidation.
The Sovereign Demon God had personally issued the Demon God Order to everyone!
Kill Ping An and obtain the Body of Immortality!
If they could sacrifice Xia Pingan, they would be directly apotheosized!
In the long history of the Blood Demon Church for tens of thousands of years, the Demonic God Order had only been issued twice. It was during a few earth-shaking battles of the gods in ancient times. The will of the Dominating Demonic God had descended and personally issued the Demonic God Order twice.
This was the third time.
For a mortal?
Moreover, the highest reward was actually … apotheosized!
Immortality … apotheosized!
Everyone was shocked!
In the next second, the devilishly handsome Hall Master was the first to soar into the air. Without saying a word, he flew directly into the air and disappeared in an instant.
The remaining people in the hall were stunned for two seconds. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. They all flew up one by one and flew in the same direction.
The Demon God Order was the highest order and will, surpassing everything. Except for the people of the Blood Demon Church, as long as anyone completed the mission on the Demon God Order, they would be rewarded by the Sovereign Demon God …
They were the closest to the Shang Dynasty. If they waited for a while longer, the experts from other continents would flock over.
The opportunity to obtain immortality and apotheosized was in Shang Jing City …
Crazy!
…
When the sky was slightly bright, Luo Laoji found a black horse carriage parked at the entrance of the Inspection Department. Then, Xia Pingan alighted from the carriage.
The iron-masked man followed beside Xia Pingan. There was also a small black pig following behind the iron-masked man.
"Good morning, Sir …" Luo Laoji rushed out of the gatehouse and greeted Xia Pingan with an exceptionally bright smile.
The Donggang Inspection Department had already distributed the salary and bonus for last month. The monthly income was more than last year's. Luo Laoji also received a share. This made Luo Laoji very happy. Even when he greeted Xia Pingan, he was more enthusiastic from the bottom of his heart.
Today, the envoy inspector came especially early. It was the earliest he had ever come. Luo Laoji did not dare to ask too much. He could only watch as Xia Pingan entered the building of the Inspection Department.
As usual, Wei Meiyu also arrived at the office early to clean up.
Once Xia Pingan arrived at the office, he asked Wei Meiyu to inform Qi Dafeng to come to the office.
"Sir, you called for me?" Qi Dafeng was also very respectful in front of Xia Pingan.
"Bring that martial artist to see me, and then go through the formalities for that martial artist's release from prison. I've already investigated his matter, and there isn't much harm. According to the charge of illegally possessing dangerous goods, he has already served his sentence here …" Xia Pingan said directly.
Although Qi Dafeng still had some doubts in his heart, since Xia Pingan had spoken, he did not say anything more. He saluted, turned around and left to make arrangements.
Only after a while, that Level Eight warrior with a terrifying face came to Xia Pingan's office. He was looking at Xia Pingan with a surprised and doubtful look. He just heard that the envoy inspector was going to let him go. He still felt that it was inconceivable.
"You're free today. I'll let you go today. But you can't stay in Shang Jing City for long. You have to leave Shang Country …" Xia Pingan said to Gui Nu.
"Why?" Gui Nu asked in a low voice.
"No reason. Your face is too scary in Shang Jing City. Find a place to stay in the future. Don't wander around Shang Jing City if you have nothing to do!" After speaking to Gui Nu, Xia Pingan looked at the iron-masked man in the room, "Brother Iron-Masked, I'll have to trouble you this time. Escort him out of Shang Country by boat. After leaving Shang Country, you can unlock the shackles on him!"
The iron masked man didn't expect that Xia Pingan would suddenly arrange such a task for him. "If you take a boat to send him out of the Shang Dynasty, it will take at least half a month for the round trip. Your safety …"
"It doesn't matter. I have a special task these days. I'm surrounded by a bunch of masters of the Judgment Army. I'm afraid that no one will come to trouble me!"
Hearing Xia Pingan's words, the iron-masked man looked at Gui Nu's face and nodded, "Okay!"
This task was not difficult for the iron-masked man. He just had to leave Shang Jing City temporarily for a few days.
"Well, remember to put a mask on his face. There's a boat at the dock this morning. I'll give you a task token. You can leave with him now!" Xia Pingan said. He took out a task token of the Judgment Army from the drawer and handed it to the iron-masked man.
With that task token, he could go out to perform official duties, which could save a lot of trouble.
Gui Nu had been looking at Xia Pingan silently. When he heard Xia Pingan's arrangement, his eyes moved, but he did not say a word.
The iron-masked man took the token and left with Gui Nu without any nonsense. But when he walked to the door, Gui Nu suddenly looked back at Xia Pingan, "You went to that place?"
"Hahaha, you think too much. I was busy yesterday, so I didn't leave Shang Jing City!" Xia Pingan smiled.
After a while, Xia Pingan stood at the window and watched the iron-masked man and Gui Nu get on a carriage. The carriage went straight to the dock …
Not until the carriage left his sight did Xia Pingan turn around. Looking at this familiar office, he suddenly sighed …
Some things had to be done!
…
At noon, in a teahouse somewhere in Shang Jing City.
Wearing a hat and a beard, Yan Duo sneakily entered the teahouse through the main entrance. He then went up to the second floor of the teahouse. After circling around the second floor, he asked for an empty private room. After entering the private room, he sat down by the window. He then opened the window of the private room and scanned the surroundings with a vigilant gaze.
Soon after Yan Duo sat down, flapping sounds came from the air. An agile eagle-owl suddenly flew in from afar. It directly flew in through the window and threw an envelope on the table in front of Yan Duo. Then, it flew away.
Yan Duo was stunned. He opened the envelope. Inside was a familiar handwriting. There were also several gold notes. The sum of the gold notes added up to more than a million gold coins. It was a terrifyingly huge sum of money.
— — After seeing this letter, immediately take your woman and leave Shang Jing City today. Don't stay. There will be great changes in the city. The gold notes in the envelope will be used as funds for the "Skymender Plan." When appropriate, they will be transferred to others to support the "Skymender Plan".
— — Lin Qing has met with misfortune. He sacrificed himself in the hands of the Blood Demon Church for the mission. No matter what happens to me, you must hide and protect yourselves well. Don't expose yourselves. You must prioritize the mission at all times. Don't worry about me!
Yan Duo's expression changed.
The letter was from Xia Pingan, but Xia Pingan's tone was very resolute, as if something big was going to happen in Shang Jing City.
After reading the letter, it turned into ashes in Yan Duo's hands. Yan Duo put away the gold notes and took a deep breath. His face showed a trace of determination, and then he quickly left the teahouse …
