As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 1309: Chapter 363: Li Half-Saint’s Terrifying Connections Lead the Attack on the Temple—How Could a God Not Be Killable?

Nie Yang didn’t ask much more. The Flood Dragon Horse neighed, its hooves stomping down, causing the spring water to splatter explosively.

...

...

The heavens and earth are vast, with spring rain drifting down.

The night is deep and profound, like thick ink that cannot be dispersed, not a hint of light to be seen.

Black clouds pile up high in the sky, countless fine rainwaters pouring down from the clouds, like willow catkins blown about in a gentle breeze.

The surface of the Grand Canal ripples with circles of waves, where flower boats sway upon the water, the lanterns within reflecting onto the fragmented water, dazzling with color.

The Grand Canal has been dug all the way to the Divine Capital’s Second City, but the dock is only set at the Ninth Layer of the Divine Capital, rarely allowing boats to enter the Second City.

Within the Grand Canal of the Divine Capital Second City, the river surface has become much narrower.

Even on a rainy night, the lively atmosphere within the flower boats cannot be extinguished, and the elegance of powerful figures is even more difficult to restrain.

Governor Hua Manlou, after investigating why the Chief Supervisor made a special return today, came to the flower boats beside the Grand Canal.

Swaying flower boats, accompanied by oirans, filled with beauty.

Of course, Hua Manlou indulged in pleasure on the flower boats, but besides pleasure, he also monitored the situation of the Mysterious Temple.

On this Grand Canal, there is a Four Imperial Ranks Mysterious Temple.

The Four Royal Mysterious Temple is definitely not a minor character; once the Strange Que riots, the impact would be immense...

However, in the Divine Capital, the threat of the Four Royal Mysterious Temple is not as significant as imagined.

After all, the Divine Capital is teeming with strong figures, even if the Four Imperial Mysterious Temple does riot, powerful individuals can respond promptly to suppress it.

Hua Manlou’s face slick with oils and grease, showing a radiant smile, as he drank the fine wine served by the oiran, trailing up the oiran’s delicate and slippery hand, intending to explore further.

But suddenly, Hua Manlou frowned, his actions halted.

”Governor Hua... why... why did you stop?”

”Was there any part where I didn’t serve well?”

The oiran’s eyes were blurry, her lips lightly parted.

However, Hua Manlou raised a finger and pressed it against her lips.

”Don’t speak.”

Hua Manlou’s expression turned solemn.

The oiran’s face instantly paled, enough to cause Hua Manlou, a Peak Martial Saint, to reveal such a grave demeanor.

What has happened?

Hua Manlou walked to the window of the flower boat and gazed out.

Suddenly, he saw the river surface of the Grand Canal steaming with water vapor, heavy fog rolling in.

Five figures approached atop the water, like walking on solid ground, the ripples on the water surface surged forward and collided against the flower boat.

This caused the flower boat to sway violently, uncontrollably.

Hua Manlou’s greasy face twitched slightly, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.

”This lineup...”

”What are you up to?!”

Fang Shangzhen and Yue Taofu, two Deputy Inspectors of Qintian Observatory!

Lv Taibai and Shi Jian, two Divine Sect Masters, one listed on both rankings, a strong figure leading the Dao Yujie Sword.

And another, ranked fourth at Heavenly Gate, a Martial Path overlord!

Such a lineup...

What is your purpose?!

As for Li Che, merely a Divine Fetus aura, Hua Manlou directly overlooked him.

However, Hua Manlou wasn’t foolish either; in the third breath after overlooking, his eyes swiftly turned to Li Che.

To mix a young dog among a pack of wolves is sure to pose a problem.

”Li Che...”

Hua Manlou recognized Li Che, the newly inducted Special Class Guest Minister of Qintian Observatory, not only that, but today he investigated and found that the only ones visiting Qintian Observatory Treasure Building today were Li Che and his daughter.

Which means, the reason why the Chief Supervisor returned and the disaster was provoked today is probably due to this person in front of him?

A peculiar smile appeared on Hua Manlou’s greasy face.

He patted the oiran’s tender bosom, amid her startled cry, his body transformed into a stream of light soaring upwards, the robe of the Temple Control Bureau Governor flapping wildly.

He walked upon the rippling surface of the Grand Canal.

With a sudden flick, the fan in his hand opened with a flurry.

”Everyone, with such a great formation, where might you be heading?”

”Could it be that you’re heading to subdue the temple?”

Hua Manlou’s handsome face revealed a bright smile.

Various gazes swept over, Fang Shangzhen and Yue Taofu, the two Deputy Inspectors of Qintian Observatory, their sights fell upon him, the Heaven and Earth Soul surged violently, as if causing a change in the sky, the water beneath Hua Manlou seemed about to sink and explode.

Lv Taibai’s silver hair fluttered, his sleeves bulged, Shi Jian did not wear Black Armor, having removed his armor, revealing terrifyingly muscled lines all over his body, his dark and robust hair whipped freely, a sharp gaze swept across.

”Yes, subdue the temple.”

Lv Taibai smiled faintly.

Upon hearing this, Hua Manlou’s expression froze.

Li Che’s Mo Shan fluttered, his face wore a gentle smile as he explained the situation that brought them.

Hua Manlou’s mouth involuntarily twitched: ”You plan to enter the Seven Treasures Relics Ruyi Golden Heavenly King Mysterious Temple... and beat up that Temple God?”

Simply because this Mysterious Temple’s sub-temple plotted against a Temple God and involved your daughter Li Che?

”This matter is considerable... if you subdue the temple and cause the Mysterious Temple to riot, the Strange Que to expand... the impact would be enormous, the blame would fall on me.”

”You know, as the Governor of Temple Control Bureau, my greatest duty is to guard the Mysterious Temple, aside from constantly watching the Mysterious Temple for any abnormality, it is also to prevent cultivators outside the Temple Control Bureau from forcibly subduing the temple.”
