Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

He quickly replied, "Of course it's because the White Scale Knight is dead! I acknowledge his strength; I don't believe he would die so easily!"

"No one believes it's true, but it really happened. The most likely and powerful culprit right now is the Hesei clan. To prevent something like this from happening again, the general told me to tell you two—leave. It's best not to stay in the Sea of ​​Reflection until we figure out how Bai Lin died."

"Humph!"

As soon as Blood Rose finished speaking, the Soul-Eating Demon Dragon Pharos immediately let out a disdainful snort.

He crossed his arms and leaned against the desk: "Lady Blood Rose, don't compare us to you. I admit that Mr. White Scale is quite strong, but compared to dragons, he's far inferior! Our safety is none of anyone else's concern, or... is leaving the Sea of ​​Reflection not General Heavenly King's suggestion, but his order?"

Dragon Strategist raised his hand and said, "Lady Blood Rose, we have confidence in our abilities. We will remain in the Sea of ​​Reflection. Now is a crucial time; we cannot allow Leonard to expand recklessly. What do you think?"

"This is your freedom."

Blood Rose didn't say much.

She nodded slightly, then turned and left.

Only two dragons remained in the room.

Pharos sensed something was amiss and asked, "Master Strategist, isn't everything going too smoothly? The Heavenly King General has withdrawn just like that? Doesn't he even suspect that we might be behind this?"

Long Ceshi squinted, deep in thought.

Once the hot tea on the desk had cooled down, he spoke, "General Tianwang... there's a high probability that he already knows we were the ones who did it."

"……what did you say?"

Pharos frowned deeply!

He quickly said, "That shouldn't be the case. He couldn't possibly know about the existence of the Fate Difference Machine. I personally collected that white-scaled hair, and I'm certain no one knows. General Tianwang couldn't find any evidence; he shouldn't know these things."

Yes.

Zuo Chang shouldn't know. The Fate Difference Machine is a one-time use item; it's extremely powerful, destroyed after use, highly efficient and secretive, but also very wasteful.

In order to gain control of the Sea of ​​Reflection and to make the Heavenly King General rely on the Dragon Community as much as possible, that's why it was used—

Of the fifteen realms under Zuo Chang's command, only Bai Lin remains.

His sudden and unprovoked death must have plunged Zuo Chang into immense fear.

At that time, the Dragon Strategist can present the prepared statements and evidence to point the finger at Leonard. Then, Zuo Chang, facing a crisis and lacking strong combat power, will inevitably rely even more on the Dragon Community.

just now……

Without any additional guidance, Zuo Chang himself believed that Leonard was the one who made the move.

Is this a good thing?

Without evidence, how could Zuo Chang be certain that Leonard was the murderer?

Whose heart was he trying to appease by hastily drawing conclusions about everything?

The thought terrified Long Ceshi!

He realized that he was no longer the mastermind behind everything. There was a curtain above the curtain, and Zuo Chang stood in a position of knowing everything, gently soothing Long Ceshi's emotions, just like an uncle handing out candy to a child.

Is the Heavenly King General plotting something?!

"No, I must be overthinking it..."

"General Tianwang lacks trump cards, and this is even more true after losing Bai Lin."

"He probably just gave up. He was just scared. He was afraid of becoming our enemy, so he abandoned the idea of ​​avenging Bai Lin and fled in a sorry state."

Yes.

This is the only reasonable explanation.

Even the gods have lost their power and are now just children at the twelfth realm. What ability does Zuo Chang have to oppose the Dragon Community?

Long Strategist shook his head and said, "Forget about General Tianwang. Let's launch the war against Leonard immediately according to the original plan! This Sea of ​​Reflection only needs one overlord!"

The Soul-Eating Demon Dragon sneered: "Our wings will surely blot out the sky."

……

……

Sky City, in the Lord's Mansion.

Several people were sitting in the room, which was neither too big nor too small. From left to right, they were Mayumi, Asuka, Shirarin, Blood Rose, and Feng Gu, who had not appeared for a long time. These were all people that Zuo Chang trusted very much.

"cough."

Feng Gu looked at the others with some restraint.

These past few days, she has been running around as Blood Rose's assistant, and her cultivation has reached the twelfth realm.

However, in her mind, she felt that she shouldn't be there. Everyone else was Zuo Chang's right-hand man, and she felt completely out of place.

In addition, their expressions of being on high alert made her even more uneasy.

"Relax and maintain your composure."

Blood Rose's voice rang out.

"Yes, yes, Your Excellency."

The spine, with its strong character, stands even more upright.

Bai Lin looked at her and smiled kindly—basically, except for his relatively harsh attitude towards Zuo Chang, Bai Lin was kind and friendly to everyone else: "Ms. Feng Gu, there's no need to be nervous. The fact that you are here means that you are qualified. You joined us a long time ago, and everyone, including the General, trusts you."

"Yes, yes, Lord Bailin."

The spirit of integrity resonates once again.

It was at this moment that Zuo Chang pushed open the door and entered, followed by a celestial being.

He looked around the room and said, "We're one person short. Please wait a moment."

Guided by moonlight!

After a brief delay, the Holy Maiden of Time, dressed in a black divine robe, once again answered the summons.

She was clearly surprised by everything before her. After a moment's hesitation, she first greeted Asuka: "Good afternoon, Ms. Asuka."

"what……"

Asuka quickly stood up: "Good afternoon, Miss Saintess."

Mayumi frowned deeply as she looked at the two people who were being so polite to each other!

wrong.

This was not the scene she wanted to see. Why were the two of them so gentle? They should be fighting, so that her Yaotai True Bow would become the key prize to be fought over!

As she pondered, Blood Rose stood up: "Everyone, I have gathered you all here today because there is an important matter I need to inform you of. Let me explain the situation to you—Miss Saintess, has your cultivation level declined?"

The saintess quickly nodded: "Yes. It's not just me. Several Supreme beings at the Fifteenth Realm in the reading group have also experienced a decline in their cultivation levels. The reason is currently unknown."

Chapter 346 Methods of Identification

Blood Rose is very professional, explaining the situation clearly in the most concise language possible.

The expressions on everyone's faces during this time were quite varied.

The decline in cultivation level has no effect on most of those present.

Blood Rose and Flying Bird even breathed a sigh of relief—after the collapse of the Celestial God system, anxiety about hierarchy inevitably emerged.

Both of them were trying to reach a higher level of cultivation, but Zuo Chang was severely short-handed and had too many things to do.

They were so busy dealing with administrative matters that they had no time for cultivation.

it's good now.

If everyone is weak, no one will suffer.

Asuka glanced at the saintess with a hidden look, thinking to herself, "In this way, the biggest difference between us will be eliminated."

but……

The celestial being's next words poured cold water on the bird's hopes: "The decrease in level benefits people like the Saintess of Time. The Saintess of Time possesses the wondrous arts of time and space; this power is real, not the convenient power obtained through 'divine crystals' and 'skill stones,' therefore it will not disappear."

Ah this.

Asuka asked, "Is the Saintess still able to use her previous abilities?"

The Celestial God nodded: "Yes. Moreover, because the overall environment has weakened, the Holy Maiden of Time has become relatively stronger, and she will become a very difficult person to deal with."

why is it like this!

So it wasn't erased after all, and it's even bigger now!

Mayumi asked cautiously, "God, what about me? Will my wind god power disappear?"

The god shook his head: "No, and they will become more precious and powerful. Not only you, but your 'familiars' will also become stronger, because everyone else will become weaker. However, this kind of advantage will only be more obvious when the upper limit is lowered to around the 'seventh' realm, so our current focus is still on finding the people I have my eye on."

Bai Lin looked around: "Currently, the only confirmed 'those under scrutiny' are myself, Chief Rose, General Flying Bird, and Miss Saintess... Who are the other four?"

Zuo Chang turned to look at Feng Gu: "According to the gods, those who are favored will gather around me under the guidance of fate. Don't you think Feng Gu is like that?"

"..."

"..."

That's really hard to say.

The main problem is that the triggering conditions of the "mechanism" are too harsh. The person being watched needs to die before they can be resurrected and their cap reduced.

How can this be verified?

If one blow kills Feng Gu, will saying "it was a mistake" be enough to gain forgiveness?

Don't even mention things that are "uncertain." Even if it's something confirmed by the gods, like the Blood Rose Saintess of the Flying Bird, it would take immense courage to slay them, and to be slain by them would require unwavering trust and profound awareness.

The room was completely silent.

Feng Gu realized everyone was staring at her, and her hair stood on end in fright.

She coughed and asked, "Um... General, is there a way to verify this? I'm not afraid of anything, but if you strike me with your sword and I haven't been noticed before, my death is a minor matter; it would be terrible to disappoint you..."

Zuo Chang also felt it was not a safe bet.

He looked at the deity beside him and asked, "Is there?"
