CHAPTER 977: CHAPTER 945: SUMERU HOLY ORDER!

The sky was dark, and rain drizzled gently.

Under the clock tower, nearly a hundred people were suppressed by a powerful Dao Thought domain, their kneecaps crackling as they half-kneeled on the ground.

Some students were so terrified, trembling, with liquid seeping out under their pants into the rainwater.

Some couples hugged each other in fear, eyes shut tight, not daring to look up at the Holy Realm being atop the clock tower.

Some teachers holding their children looked up at the bloody sky with eyes full of wild hatred.

Nian Gengcheng overlooked the crowd in the square and frowned when no one responded:

"What, is no one willing to join this great cause?"

Swa swa swa——

Only the light breeze of the rain curtain drifted in this deathly silent hell.

"Troublesome, recruiting believers is much harder now than before." The suit-clad young man shook his head and sighed, having killed around Weiyang Academy, he only found two willing to join Burning Heaven.

Those two good kids had inferior cultivation talents, but they shared a great goal, both wanting to receive the blessing of the Supreme Heavenly Emperor and become a god when the new world arrives!

This was quite good.

But alas, only two new believers, still far from his target number for this trip.

Anyway, Nian Gengcheng’s eyes overlooking the square turned cold as he decided not to waste more time and smiled:

"If you’re unwilling to join Burning Heaven, it’s fine. After all, I’m not a bloodthirsty person. How about this, just tell me who’s holding the ’Sumeru Holy Order,’ and I’ll let you go, how’s that?"

The crowd in the square was as silent as cicadas in cold, some cautiously raised their heads, looking at each other with confusion.

Clearly, none knew what the Sumeru Holy Order was.

Nian Gengcheng looked at a few academy teachers who could barely kneel, smiling, "The Abyss Saints opened the Sumeru Gate in Golden Sparrow City, releasing three Sumeru Holy Orders, stating whoever obtains this order can enter the Sumeru Realm to cultivate. My dear teachers, don’t tell me you don’t know about this?"

Xia Feng: ".....?"

Xia Feng, hidden afar, slowly formed a question mark on his forehead.

"Sumeru Holy Order? How come I, the Sumeru Realm Master, don’t know?"

Could it be that tea witch is causing trouble? Xia Feng frowned, activated the Sumeru mark and thought reached the Sumeru Realm to inquire about this.

Cha Naixue was concentrating on cultivation in the Heavenly Realm, hearing the long-lost voice, her eyelashes trembled with joy and opened her eyes.

But Sumeru Holy Order? She felt puzzled, not understanding, shook her head, "Little Feng, I revealed the location of the Sumeru Gate as per your request and did nothing more."

Xia Feng nodded thoughtfully; if it’s not tea witch, then someone is secretly releasing fake information under the name of him, the Sumeru Realm Master.

But... what do they want with such false information?

"Little Feng, outside the Sumeru Gate, four Venerable presences are hidden. I’m not sure of their exact appearances and identities, but they should be from two entities. Should I drive them away?"

Cha Naixue’s thought came again, Xia Feng nodded, "No problem, there might be more entities coming to the Sumeru Gate afterward, ignore them, wait until all entities are gathered, it’ll be good for bidding."

"Alright. So when are you coming back, Little Feng?"

"I’m already in Golden Sparrow City, I’ll return once I finish my business here. Before I return, regardless of what those entities say outside, don’t worry about them."

"Sure."

Ending the communication with Cha Naixue, Xia Feng looked back toward the square.

The suit-clad young man twisted his neck, seeing no response still, smiled, "Alright, alright, it seems some of you have the potential to become Burning Heaven believers, not caring about your lives at all, that’s great, I like such people."

Saying this, he casually beckoned, lifting boys and girls under ten from the ground, directly strangling their necks, raising them in the rain curtain.

"Urgh urgh——!!" The two terrified children struggled and cried panic-stricken,

"Don’t cry, don’t cry, it’s painless." The suit-clad young man spoke gently, "Very soon, very soon you will see that supreme existence."

As his grip tightened, a woman’s voice suddenly came from the square, "I know where the Sumeru Holy Order is."

The force in the suit-clad young man’s hands relaxed slightly, glancing down.

A woman in a doctor’s white coat stood up slowly, her pale gold wavy long hair fluttering in the blood rain, a white mask covering half her face, her beautiful phoenix eyes adorned with a teardrop mole on the right.

"Oh, so it’s Doctor Jiegeng?"

Nian Gengcheng smiled at the golden-haired woman.

Half a year ago, he fled to Golden Sparrow City heavily injured, rescued by kind people, later he met Lin Hanshu’s daughter Lin Xi, during the healing period, often accompanying Lin Xi to audit some public classes at Weiyang Academy, seeing the golden-haired woman from afar.

This woman was the academy’s doctor; due to her enchanting beauty, she was quite famous in the academy, an interesting woman. According to Nian Gengcheng’s investigation, this woman once almost became a Maid of the Golden Sparrow, with notable talents.

He must admit, during these six months of healing, Nian Gengcheng was very satisfied with this academy, filled with beautiful people and the aura of a happy life.

But these beauties are destined not to last.

Therefore, he wanted to bring the good classmates of the academy into the great cause of Burning Heaven; unfortunately, these ignorant people didn’t appreciate his goodwill.

Seeing the woman hesitate to speak, Nian Gengcheng smiled and reminded, "Doctor Jiegeng, I must warn you, my patience is limited."

"The Sumeru Holy Order is with me." The golden-haired woman’s beautiful eyes raised slightly, her slender hand opened, revealing a floating golden token engraved with the ancient word ’Sumeru.’

Nian Gengcheng’s eyes lit up, he beckoned, and the token floated in the rain curtain, swiftly shooting toward the clock tower.

But just as it soared halfway, a ghostly pale right hand stretched out from the rain curtain, grabbed the Sumeru Holy Order, and instantly vanished.

Nian Gengcheng’s face changed slightly, abruptly turning his head, staring coldly into the distance.

It was unforeseen, but far on a high building, there was a young man in a wheelchair, a black-robed person standing behind him, the robe flapping in the wind.

The young man in the wheelchair looked with interest at the golden token in his hand.

Nian Gengcheng’s eyes showed a moment of doubt, then he chuckled, "Interesting, daring to snatch food from a tiger despite being a Second Order Spirit Master."

In this game-like world, there exists a superpower system, but the young man in the wheelchair has a flashing lv.0 level marker, undoubtedly just a rookie.

Having such a rookie suddenly snatch away the treasure was a bit embarrassing, Nian Gengcheng was very displeased, he hated people snatching his things!

"Still, a little cripple huh, haha~ I like cripples."

Nian Gengcheng stepped on the raindrop-formed water steps, low laughter echoing, rapidly closing the distance to the young man in the wheelchair in a few moments.

The enormous Dao Thought domain crashed down on Xia Feng like a collapsing sky, mountains crumbling.

The wheelchair he sat on, though made of special spiritual materials, couldn’t withstand the horrifying pressure, emitting crackling, brittle sounds.
