All I remember is that the world before I fell asleep was completely different from the world now.

When I awoke, the world had undergone a complete transformation, becoming what it is today.

Li Chengtian looked at the charming Madam Wang in front of him, a slight smile playing on his lips, a strange glint in his eyes.

He said calmly and slowly:

"Just this evening, a hundred elite Black Riders outside Kyoto were ambushed and killed."

Of the one hundred corpses, forty-eight had been stabbed in the chest, their hearts pierced, leaving wounds that resembled tiny holes.

Among the thirty-two corpses, the one who died had its throat pierced.

The remaining twenty people all died from having their sternums and internal organs shattered by the force of the kicks.

I wonder if Madam Wang feels any familiarity with this?

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, Madam Wang was struck as if by a thunderbolt, utterly shocked.

Her eyes widened in astonishment; she couldn't believe what she was hearing.

These scenes are all too familiar.

After all, she personally participated in the process of creating temple messengers like the Five Elements One!

Moreover, after being modified by Ye Qingmei, Wuzu has already possessed a trace of human-like thinking and would never easily kill innocent people.

Since it wasn't Wu Zhu who killed him, then "Wu San San" must have been another temple messenger who came to the capital of Qing Kingdom.

This made Madam Wang realize that her whereabouts might have been discovered and that she could face danger at any moment.

At this moment, she was no longer alone; her daughter, Baba, needed her protection at home.

Thinking of this, she instantly felt nervous and uneasy.

Li Chengtian noticed the unpredictable changes in Madam Wang's expression, and he realized that his words had touched upon her anxieties.

So, he smiled and spoke again:

"I'm sure Madam Wang is already aware of her current situation."

If you are willing to tell me everything about the temple, I can ensure your safety and that of your family, and grant you a certain status in the Qing Kingdom.

After all, I have always greatly admired talented people like Madam Wang.

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, Madam Wang firmly shook her head:

"Your Majesty, it's not that I'm unwilling to tell you, but the temple is truly powerful, incredibly powerful."

They possessed weapons far ahead of their time, weapons that were extremely terrifying; even the worst of them could kill enemies silently from a kilometer away.

The powerful weapons could instantly destroy most of the Qing Kingdom. Besides these terrifying weapons, the temple also houses dozens of temple envoys capable of fighting alongside Grandmasters.

Upon hearing that most of the Qing Kingdom had been destroyed in an instant, Li Chengtian was shocked. He hadn't expected that the temple would still have nuclear bombs.

Thinking about it again, it makes sense. After all, they entered the Ice Age in the last era because of a nuclear explosion, so it's normal for them to still have nuclear weapons.

"Since the temple is so powerful, why doesn't it directly intervene in the secular world?" Li Chengtian asked.

After listening, Madam Wang pondered for a moment and then explained:

"The temple believes that humans need to develop and grow on their own, and that excessive intervention will disrupt the process of human evolution."

Therefore, they only intervene when necessary, such as to protect the secrets of the temple or maintain the balance of the world.

Li Chengtian nodded.

He knew that the existence of the temple was both a guarantee and a limitation for this world.

Without temples, the world might have already descended into chaos.

However, the existence of temples also limited people's freedom and creativity to some extent.

Having figured this out, Li Chengtian knew that the Temple would absolutely not use nuclear weapons unless the situation became irreversible.

So he smiled and said to Madam Wang, "Madam, when you say 'killing someone from a thousand meters away,' you must be referring to Barrett!"

Madam Wang was somewhat surprised to hear Li Chengtian mention Barrett, but then she remembered that Ye Qingmei seemed to have brought one with her when she escaped from the temple, so she understood.

"That's right, it's the Barrett. Even a Grandmaster would die instantly if hit by this weapon."

Li Chengtian glanced at Madam Wang and thought to himself that it would be difficult to get more information about the temple without showing off his skills to Ye Qingmei's superior.

So he said to Madam Wang:

"Madam, although I have never seen Barrett, I know that its power is not very strong, but I do not take it seriously."

After Li Chengtian finished speaking, he instantly appeared beside Madam Wang, his movements as swift and light as a ghost.

He stretched out a hand and gently lifted Lady Wang's body up.

Then, Li Chengtian took Madam Wang and flew directly out of the house, heading into the sky.

Due to the extremely high speed and the darkness of the night, Madam Wang's vision was suddenly completely obscured.

She felt as if she were in a bottomless black hole, surrounded only by the howling wind and biting cold. Her heart was pounding, and she was so nervous that she could hardly breathe.

In just a few minutes, Li Chengtian had brought Madam Wang to the top of a giant peak in a deep mountain.

Madam Wang stepped onto the ground and felt the solid earth beneath her feet, which calmed her down a little.

However, she was stunned when she saw her surroundings.

She stood atop the mountain, looking down at the bottomless cliff below, the steep peaks standing like a giant barrier before her.

The swirling mist and clouds gave it a mysterious and dangerous feel.

Madam Wang's face was pale, and her mind was in complete chaos.

She had no idea why she had suddenly come to this place, nor did she understand what Li Chengtian wanted to do.

Just as Madam Wang was at a loss, Li Chengtian's voice appeared in her ears again:

"Madam Wang, we have now arrived at a deep mountain peak in Jiangnan."

His tone was calm, but it conveyed an air of authority that commanded respect.

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, Madam Wang's face showed astonishment, her mouth wide open, and her eyes filled with disbelief.

Her body was trembling slightly.

Impossible! Jiangnan is over a thousand kilometers away from Kyoto. Even if a Grandmaster travels day and night, it would take several days to reach here.

Madam Wang's voice carried a hint of doubt. She tried hard to convince herself, but the facts before her were hard for her to accept.

However, Li Chengtian did not respond to her questioning, but instead took action directly.

He stretched out his palm and struck the massive mountain peak in front of him with all his might.

Instantly, a deafening roar resounded, as if Thor were enraged.

The sound resounded through the sky, as if it would tear the entire world apart.

Madam Wang was so frightened by the sudden loud noise that her face turned pale and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

She nearly lost her balance and fell off the cliff, but fortunately Li Chengtian reacted quickly and grabbed her in time.

When Madam Wang came to her senses, she was surprised to find that the giant peak, which she had been able to see clearly by the moonlight, had disappeared.

It was as if it had never existed, leaving only an empty night sky.

Madam Wang's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief, her lips trembling, unable to utter a complete sentence: How...how is this possible?

Looking at the terrified Madam Wang, Li Chengtian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, as if everything was under his control.

laughed:

"What do you think of my strength, Madam? Am I capable of ensuring that you won't be captured by the people from the temple?"

After hearing Li Chengtian's words, Madam Wang recovered from her shock and a hint of joy appeared in her eyes. This kind of strength was practically no different from a human missile!

Thinking of this, he quickly said excitedly:

"That's enough, absolutely enough. As long as the temple doesn't use world-destroying weapons, its other methods pose no threat to Your Majesty."

Li Chengtian smiled and said after hearing Madam Wang's words:

"Madam, could you tell me more about the temple now?"

Without hesitation, Madam Wang replied:

"Since Your Majesty wants to know, then I will tell you everything I know."

Temples have long been hailed as miraculous, but in reality, they are not as magical as legend suggests.

In fact, it is just a military museum left over from the previous era, which houses all kinds of powerful weapons, like a huge treasure trove.

Besides the dazzling array of weapons, there are also some robots preserved here, which I call temple messengers.

Although these messengers do not possess true qi, they have extremely fast speed and great strength, making them difficult for even ordinary grandmasters to contend with.

These robots are all controlled by an intelligent computer in the military museum.

As I mentioned before, the significance of this intelligent computer is to maintain the balance of the entire world.

Temple messengers are the instruments that maintain this balance.

They have no self-awareness and simply follow the instructions given by the intelligent computer to carry out tasks.
