After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

The black-haired priest calmed his anger and then let out a cold laugh.

As soon as the mission was over, he immediately arranged a car accident to extradite Lu Sijian to the divine realm.

As for Sheng Yunchao, he can just go cry while holding Lu Sijian's memorial tablet!

He lost interest in observing any further and turned away.

Although Sheng Yunchao's words annoyed him, the other party was right about one thing: Gu Sheng's assistant's arrival was too opportune.

Even though the priests control the small worlds, they can only write the plot and use the power of the universe's birth to push things in the direction of the plot.

But nothing is absolute. As Lu Sijian said, people are the most uncontrollable people in the world. Even someone as powerful as him can only get a rough result from the plot he writes.

Although the people of their divine kingdom claim to be gods, they are not true deities.

The assistant's behavior... seemed very much like someone was tipping him off.

If that's the case, then the other party has gone too far. Apart from those on missions, priests are not allowed to privately contact people from small worlds.

He hardly needs to investigate who is capable of such subtle actions.

Number 14 enjoys manipulating people's hearts and absolutely will not allow characters to escape his plot design. He has secretly made underhanded moves several times in order to punish the vicious villains.

Because it catered to the preferences of the inhabitants of God's Kingdom, they were never held accountable.

But this time, reaching so far is a bit too much.

-

It wasn't until half an hour later that I realized the hostility had disappeared.

Lu Sijian had been tossing and turning for two nights and was so tired that she could barely keep her eyes open. She fell asleep in Sheng Yunchao's arms.

But probably because of the severe pain, she didn't sleep well; her brow was constantly furrowed, and her arm would occasionally twitch spasmodically.

Sheng Yunchao lowered his eyelids, his eyes devoid of any smile.

He felt an intense hatred for his own powerlessness at this moment, unable to help her in the slightest.

Until he felt Lu Sijian's tightly furrowed brows gradually relax.

In the void, it seemed as if an invisible hand was gently brushing across Lu Sijian's injured arm.

The deep-seated pain subsided, my body relaxed, and I stopped trembling and feeling cold.

Sheng Yunchao sat in the darkness, holding Lu Sijian tighter and tighter, as if he were embracing the whole world.

The other party finally made a move, but he also understood why the other party was willing to make a move.

With the plot nearing its end and extradition imminent, this is undoubtedly the best time to curry favor, achieving twice the result with half the effort.

-

Divine Kingdom, Number 14 didn't expect his little tricks to be discovered so quickly.

Faced with irrefutable evidence, he couldn't even deny it.

He had already planned this as early as when Lu Sijian intended to ambush Zhao Ke and his group.

Since Lu Sijian likes to cause trouble so much, let's just make things bigger.

Gu Sheng appears refined and cultured on the surface, but he is actually ruthless and vicious at heart. If Lu Sijian were caught in the act by Gu Sheng's men, she would probably be crippled if not killed.

Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes; he did not foresee the variable of Sheng Yunchao.

"Priest No. 3, don't you think you're being too domineering? You can interfere with the plot at will, so why can't I?"

The long table's gaze was fixed on the depths of the misty clouds, where the projection of Number 1 sat at the head of the table.

The priests then sat in their assigned chairs according to their numbers.

Some of them came to the scene, while others, like No. 1, were just phantoms, projected by spiritual power because the real person couldn't be there in person.

Number 3 looked up and glanced at the fiery red head in the distance. His long, black hair fell to his chest. His expression was indifferent, and his voice was firm and powerful.

“First, this small world is under my control. You only have the right to inspect it. In view of your recklessness last time, I have already reported to Number 1 and revoked your inspection rights. You no longer have the right to interfere in this small world.”

"Secondly, although I have no obligation to explain this to you, as a colleague, I still have to tell you that priests can provide necessary assistance in matters that are beneficial to the development of the plot."

This rule has always existed, but given Number 14's personality, how could he possibly help his host?

He only knows how to deceive, tease, and seduce his host, ultimately destroying him.

The guillotine of the divine kingdom may not be used even once every few years. The last person executed was the host of number 14.

"Number 14, you will be confined to your quarters for the time being, and your priestly authority will be temporarily relinquished." Finally, Number 1, sitting in the main seat, spoke.

This matter is now settled, and there is no room for maneuver.

Number 14 was stripped of his power and could only leave with a livid face.

The other priests were also busy with their own affairs, and after exchanging only a few words, they all took their leave.

The illusory figure in the main seat remained motionless for a long time.

"By the way, Number 3, you came to me last time because you wanted a pardon?" The illusory figure seemed to be chatting with an old friend, smiling as he said, "That's not like you."

Number 3 said calmly, "I just think she might be a good subject for observation."

He had already prepared his words: "People like Mu Liangyue, who possess so many wonderful qualities, can certainly evoke positive emotional responses, but people like Lu Sijian may not be unable to either."

"She is rational but doesn't offer indiscriminate sympathy; she is strong but has her principles. Rather than saying she is malicious and hypocritical, it's more accurate to say that her kindness is always wrapped in a shell of malice..."

Number 3 didn't even realize that when he talked about Lu Sijian, his usually calm eyes were filled with ripples.

Or rather, those weren't ripples, they were towering waves.

"I believe that her stubbornness and indomitable spirit in the face of difficulties, as well as her unwavering perseverance, can greatly inspire the minds of the people and give them the courage to face reality. Perhaps we could create a star in the divine kingdom and make her a guide in reality..."

"Enough!" Number 1 interrupted him.

Number 3 paused, looking slightly surprised, but remained silent.

The phantom of Number 1 sighed, "I know you are devoted to the Kingdom of God, but your soul is not pure enough to qualify you as a guide."

The third priest gazed at the illusory figure through the misty clouds, "You were always willing to try anything for the good of the divine kingdom."

"Perhaps it's because I was seriously injured during my last mission and haven't fully recovered yet, so I'm feeling a bit weak." The phantom of Number 1 coughed lightly twice.

The third priest's expression changed slightly. "You're injured? When did this happen? How serious is it?"

He was about to offer to heal her wounds and was about to make a move when a sharp pain shot through his arm beneath his priest's robes, reminding him that he had overstepped his bounds and was now bearing the consequences for Lu Sijian.

The words were on the tip of his tongue, then lingered, before he finally swallowed them back down.

Number 1 coughed even more violently, "In the entire divine kingdom, only you are a natural master of the power of the stars, so powerful that you don't have to suffer any backlash pain... I'm getting old after all!"

"Please don't say that. Take good care of yourself, you'll definitely recover soon." He curled his fingers slightly, refraining from offering to help.

He can't take that risk.

The phantom of number 1 waited for a long time but didn't hear what it wanted to hear. In the end, it could only laugh twice to cover it up.

"I'll give you the pardon document; come and collect it after the mission is over."
