"It's been resolved."

Shangwu briefly recounted the events at Laoshan Temple.

Shen Qing immediately followed up with a complaint: "I'm never sitting in the passenger seat again."

Xu Zhou was speechless. Didn't he know whether the people around him were religious believers or not?

It's obvious that this was Qin Sheng's own design.

But Xu Zhou couldn't understand it.

Since Qin Sheng has already chosen an identity that will never be suspected, why go to the trouble of having a cult member attack him in order to clear his name?

What are your friends like now?

Shangwu's questioning voice brought Xuzhou back to reality.

"I can only say there's no danger to his life." Xu Zhou sighed, glancing at Chen Yu, who looked somewhat dejected.

"Chen Hang's condition is not life-threatening, but he has suffered internal organ and nerve damage. With current medical technology, he will need to rest for three to four months."

"Feel sorry."

Chen Yu shook his head: "It's nothing."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "You've come here to see us, haven't you?"

"Yes, a little."

Shangwu pondered, "I plan to deal with the cultists on the city's defenses first. I hope you can help us come up with some routes for transporting the dragon beasts."

Xu Zhou was shocked; it seemed this was Shang Wu's plan.

He's still just a greenhorn.

Even if he didn't know about Shangwu's plan, these routes are all different, so wouldn't it be easy for them to discover the problem by communicating with each other within their own sect?

“Of course.” Shangwu continued, “This is not a simple trap. The dragon beast can’t stay in District 11 forever. I also need to choose a suitable route to transport it away.”

Xu Zhou frowned: "But isn't this situation a bit inappropriate?"

"Precisely because it is unsuitable, it must be transported away now."

Shang Wu said calmly, "The cultist probably thought the same thing. Before he could react, the dragon beast had already been taken away."

"I won't fall for the same tricks I've learned before."

Xuzhou remained silent.

Whether the followers take action or not, the martial spirit will not suffer losses.

On the contrary, if the dragon beast is really taken away, the investigation into District 11 will probably take a long time, which is bad news for him.

After all, this is Kaitian City's territory.

If this continues, it will only lead to a situation like a frog being slowly boiled in water.

“I understand, but the transportation routes…” Xu Zhou pondered, “I do have a few routes for transporting valuable goods that are remote and safe.”

"Alright then."

Shang Wu paused for a moment, looking at the sky outside: "There's no rush, let's leave it at that for today."

"Alright, I also need to organize those routes, since some people know about them."

Xu Zhou said bitterly, "To be honest, I'm starting to feel a bit paranoid now. Who knows, maybe some of my subordinates are also followers."

"Then I'll trouble you. I'll also prepare a few routes, and we'll meet tomorrow to confirm them."

Shang Wu stood up and said, "Then I won't disturb Chen Hang's recovery."

"goodbye."

After watching the three leave, Chen Hang, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes.

"Uncle Xu, brother, does this mean we've cleared our names?"

Chen Yu nodded: "Of course, Uncle Xu risked his life."

Don't be so happy yet.

Xu Zhou let out a sigh of relief: "How we obtain the dragon beast is still a problem."

"After we discuss it tomorrow, we'll be able to determine the dragon beast's actual transport route, and then we can intercept it," Chen Hang said casually.

"Then we'll still be suspected."

Xu Zhou reminded them, "Of the three of them, two are from the academy, and one was confirmed by the inner city to guide the two. They are absolutely not suspects. When the dragon beast is kidnapped, they will only suspect us."

"Then what should we do?"

Xu Zhou pondered, "I need to think of a way to extricate ourselves from this situation."

...

"Folk believers, merchants..."

The images of Chenyu and Chenhang flashed through Shangwu's mind.

The problem of the intractable religious followers had apparently been solved within the inner city.

Don't forget, everyone who came out of Yulin Company has already been labeled as a believer. No matter how much Xu Zhou does, he can't clear the Qingchen brothers of suspicion.

After contacting these three people, a message was sent to Shangwu's phone, which answered his doubts.

Looking at the strongholds exposed in Xuzhou, they were all folk believers, yet they were gathered together.

It seems that these three are the direct superiors of these believers.

Saving Xu Zhou was merely to convince them that they were innocent, so that they could be used to deal with the believers in the community later.

Shangwu doesn't need to worry about this. Since the inner city has given this information but hasn't settled the matter, it's clear that they were prepared.

All he needs to do is eliminate the cultists from the city's defense forces.

This message also reveals that the higher-ups still harbored some suspicions about him and Xu Ruiling, and had not disclosed all the information.

A moment later.

"Meet me at seven o'clock," Shang Wu said, leading Xu Ruiling back to the newly opened room.

The old room is drafty.

Qin Sheng also went back to his room, took off the skin of the white-faced rabbit, and came out for some fresh air.

“The inner city, Xuzhou, the city guards, and Shangwu.”

The situation in District 11 is now quite complicated.

This doesn't even take into account Qin Sheng's own purpose.

The purpose of the inner city is self-evident: to wipe out all the believers in District 11.

Xu Zhou wanted to survive this sweep, but unfortunately, Chen Yu and Chen Hang's existence had already sealed his identity. Everything he was doing now was in vain, and he was even being used.

The cultists in the city's defense forces were obviously after the dragon beast, and they probably didn't realize that Xuzhou was about to betray them.

As for martial prowess…
