The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 628 After the explosion
Above the tower, the firelight illuminated the pine and cypress forest halfway up the mountain.

"Is it resolved?" asked the great priest Li calmly.

The female high priest slowly raised the telescope in her hand, stared at the flames rising in the distance, and replied softly:

"It should be OK, wait for the report."

In the firelight, pieces of burning ashes were picked up by the cold wind and intertwined with the falling snow, like gray snowflakes, twirling and dancing in the air.

As if by chance, a black snowflake was blown by the wind, floating between the temples, and finally passed through the window of the tower and fell into the palm of the female high priestess.

Looking down, I could vaguely make out two blurry ink words on the charred ashes:
"without."

She smiled slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in her smile.

"Is it done?" High Priest Li looked at her, and seeing her expression, he knew what was going on.

He relaxed his brows and smiled, "As expected, this matter should be left to the great priest Lou. No one will know..."

Before he could finish his words, the door of the tower was suddenly pushed open with a "bang".

Great Priest Mei appeared at the door, panting and furious.

"You did this?" He pointed at the fire that was still burning in the distance, his eyes burning with uncontrollable anger.

High Priest Li and High Priest Lou looked at each other and did not respond immediately.

"Why do you care?" High Priest Li stepped forward, patted High Priest Mei on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Anyway, the matter has been resolved, right?"

"How can this be considered a solution?" The voice of the Great Priest Mei trembled slightly with anger. "We asked her to come here to solve our urgent problem..."

"High Priest Mei is right," High Priest Lou said slowly, with a sweet dimple on the corner of his mouth, but his tone was as cold as ice, "But since she can't solve our urgent needs, there is no need for her to stay."

Grand Priest Mei's eyes widened in disbelief, and his voice suddenly rose: "So you are going to kill them?"

"Be careful what you say," said the great priest Li in a cold voice, "This is just an unfortunate accident. The cause is still unknown. Perhaps the carriage's array was damaged by the cold, or perhaps there were other reasons that caused the explosion. What does it have to do with us?"

"Yes," Great Priest Lou smiled even more deeply and added in a low voice, "On a snowy day, everything is hard to predict."

Great Priest Mei looked at the two of them, his fingertips trembling slightly, as if he realized something.

His lips moved, but in the end he said nothing, suddenly flicked his sleeves, and turned and left.

"He should have gone to see the scene, right?" High Priest Li said nonchalantly.

"Go ahead and look," said the great priest Lou calmly, "Anyway, there is no body left, and everything has turned to ashes."

"That's good." High Priest Li nodded, stroked the short beard under his round chin, and laughed happily.

However, the eyes of the great priest Lou narrowed slightly, and his voice suddenly became low: "But it's time to get rid of him as well."

"But his cultivation level...we may not be able to completely suppress him." High Priest Li hesitated a little.

"Don't be afraid," Great Priest Lou chuckled, a sly look flashing in his eyes, "Don't we have a killing weapon of the Divine Hidden Realm?"

"Has the ritual been completed?" A hint of surprise flashed across the face of the great priest Li.

"That's right." Great Priest Lou was also proud.

"Great!" Great Priest Li said excitedly, "Let's go and take a look now!"

The two men walked down the tower, talking in low voices, their voices echoing off the cold stone walls.

"What a pity, the person from another world actually ran away..." There was a hint of regret in the tone of the great priest Li.

"It doesn't matter," said the great priest Lou firmly, "Since she has a strange aura, she will reveal her flaws again."

……

"What? Dead?"

In the courtyard of the Mei family, Mei Yuting, the head of the Mei family, heard the story told by his elder brother, the chief priest Mei Yuxing. His legs went weak and he could hardly stand. Fortunately, Mei Yuxing supported him in time.

"I'm sorry..." Mei Yuxing's voice was low and difficult.

"But..." Mei Yuting's lips trembled, "According to what you said, it's not just Su Che, but also Liu Sheng..."

Mei Yuxing nodded heavily.

"How can I explain this to their families..." Mei Yuting felt a sharp pain in his chest and murmured, "Besides, Liu Sheng went there because of me. If it weren't for me..."

Mei Yuxing shook her head and said in a low voice, "This is not your fault. Even you couldn't have predicted it."

"But……"

Mei Yuting suddenly raised his head, and a look of pain flashed in his eyes.

"I've known for a long time that the Temple would never allow Liu Sheng's research to exist! But I was still hoping for the best, thinking that with Su Che's privileges, there might be a chance for you to see it, and a chance to do something..."

Her words stopped abruptly, still in grief.

Mei Yuxing's face suddenly darkened, and there was a hint of alertness in her tone: "Liu Sheng's research?"

"You don't know?" Mei Yuting raised his head in confusion, "Did Su Che not say anything in the temple?"

Mei Yuxing felt even more strange, his brows furrowed deeply, and his face instantly became ugly.

"Originally, the content of the meeting could not be disclosed to the public, but now that things have come to this, I must ask clearly - what did Su Che originally intend to say?"

Mei Yuting shook his head and said in a heavy tone: "The key is not Su Che, but Liu Sheng, whom Su Che brought with him. She proposed a method to explore the source of spiritual energy, and it is possible to produce new spiritual energy with the help of the device she designed..."

Before he finished speaking, Mei Yuxing's face suddenly turned pale, and his body swayed slightly, almost tottering.

He clutched the armrest tightly and murmured in a low voice: "It's wrong...it's wrong...everything is wrong."

Mei Yuting's heart trembled and his breathing became rapid.

"What? Didn't you attack them because this training article was too blasphemous?"

Mei Yuxing smiled bitterly, with indescribable complex emotions in her eyes, and said slowly:
"No, Su Che...she didn't say anything..."

……

The explosion was deafening.

The location happened to be on the Temple Mount, where there were constant streams of people and pilgrims.

The news quickly spread throughout Chang'an.

As to how many people died in the explosion, there is still no definite number.

All we know is that the cause of the accident seemed to be an old horse-drawn carriage, and it is suspected that the improper modification of its spiritual weapon array pattern triggered this tragic disaster.

It immediately became the focus of discussion in the whole city.

"So, we must not be careless when it comes to refining spiritual weapons!" someone sighed.

"Yes, that's why I only use the official spiritual tools of the Ministry of Industry. I don't dare to touch the things produced by those small workshops."

"Hey, didn't you also buy some magical book and mirage instrument from Qingyun Pavilion?" someone couldn't help but tease.

"Tsk, you don't understand this, do you?" The man lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Do you know who the founder of Qingyun Pavilion is? One is the daughter of the Minister of Industry, and the other is the daughter of Wen Shaoqing. How can this background not be strong?"

"I see……"

"But not only that, even His Majesty personally praised the Divine Book Mirage Instrument for its excellent design!"

"Oh, of course His Majesty likes it. He loves to seek immortals and ask for advice, and he doesn't even attend the morning court..."

"Shh, be careful, don't say any more..."
