Chapter 427 What? My boyfriend is killing people?
"After you kneel, let's pray towards the Twin Cities." Zhong Mu slowly turned around, holding Mu He's hand, and said, "God will come because of your prayers. As long as your heart is sincere, God will be answered. Whether God is willing to come in the end depends on the sincerity of your prayers."
After he finished speaking, he pulled Muhe away.
The people of Mingyun City had not yet realized that this was a scam. They could never have imagined that two people from another city would kill the city lord, fabricate a huge lie that the gods would return, and gather so many citizens just to rescue one person.
This was something that the selfish and self-centered Mingyun City could never have imagined.
They were still cheering for God's imminent return and celebrating their impending completeness. No one looked back at the death of the high priestess. The high priestess's body was burning, her flesh and blood were taken away, and no one even thought about the high priestess at all, because God was about to return, and the high priestess was just a tool that had lost its value.
Zhong Mu knew very well that if he wanted them to give up the high priestess, who was of use to him, he had to first make her lose value in the hearts of the citizens. Only then would her greater value appear, and the high priestess would be useless, and no one would care where she went.
The cheers in Mingyun City were loud, and the citizens were very active, heading towards another city gate. Zhong Mu pulled Mu He away from Mingyun City without any hindrance and headed towards Changsheng City.
He was also prepared to prepare for the possibility that someone might change their mind and become a little more cautious and start watching them, so he walked very fast and had to leave before anyone could react. However, the process of leaving was smooth and no one noticed anything at all.
It was not until he had completely left Mingyue City, and even ran away for a long time, that Zhong Mu finally felt relieved.
He turned back to look in the direction of Mingfen City. Only the outline of a city remained in the distance, yet it still made him feel a pang of fear. This city was not only terrifying visually, but also psychologically. Such a city was not worth saving; it should be left to its own devices.
Thinking of this, Zhong Mu lowered his head, lifted up his arm hidden in the basket and took a peek.
The severed arm had begun to change, gradually losing its outline. The distorted shape made Zhong Mu quickly look away and cover it with a cloth.
Seeing that the high priest seemed to be gradually regenerating his divine power, he relaxed a little.
"Why is your heart beating so fast? What scared you again?" Mu He noticed Zhong Mu's mood and asked quickly.
"No." Zhong Mu pulled Mu He to sit under the shade of a tree. "I plan to rest nearby for a while. I'm afraid that if we go too far from Mingyu City, the High Priestess's regeneration ability will disappear or decrease. Let's wait until she has a complete human form before setting off."
Influenced by Ye Tianxuan, Zhong Mu is more sensitive to the summary and recording of information. He had vaguely heard before that gods have different domains and will only protect their own domains. Therefore, the people in most cities live in the domains of their own gods, and the residents of the four major cities rarely move around.
Zhong Mu must be more cautious. He can arrive at Changsheng City later, but he must ensure that the high priest can survive safely.
"Okay." Mu He nodded in response. He could also take the opportunity to heal the stitches on his body so as not to delay his next journey.
"Doctor." Zhong Mu looked towards Mingyu City and moved closer to Mu He. "Do you think the gods of this world really love their believers?"
"Although the believers and high priests in each city act as if they cannot live without God and are extremely respectful of Him, and from what they describe, it seems that God loves them very much, if God truly loves them, He wouldn't have suddenly disappeared without a trace."
Unless the gods all disappear collectively due to some force majeure and they themselves are caught off guard, there should always be a little time for them to leave a message for their believers.
All the gods disappeared indifferently.
"Maybe it's because they are dead?" Mu He also found it difficult to figure out this world. If they left in a normal way, he could only think that the gods had passed away, and died suddenly, but the possibility of that was very small.
"As long as God's power is still there, God is not dead." Zhong Mu said firmly: "The fact that the high priests still have God's power is the best proof. If the main body dies, these bestowed powers will also disappear. After all, Li Mo is a similar existence, right? When he dies, won't you disappear with him?"
Mu He nodded slowly, "You're right... They are the same existence. The relationship between God and believers should be similar to ours. If there is anything that can be compared to the situation of the high priest..."
He was silent for a moment, then raised his head in the direction of Zhong Mu and said, "It's not that God left or disappeared, it's that God hid himself."
Zhong Mu was speechless. This guess made it even more difficult to understand what God was doing. He suddenly gave up on the believers he had nurtured for so many years and even ignored the high priest. What on earth had happened to him?
"Alas... I can't figure this out. I'm going to contact Boss Ye and ask him about the situation. I want him to see if Changsheng City is willing to take in the high priest of Mingyun City." Zhong Mu took out the communicator, walked two steps to the side, and began to contact Ye Tianxuan.
According to the time, Brother Xiu should have arrived in Changsheng City and reunited with Boss Ye. Then they would be able to get some clues about the man they were looking for from the high priest of Changsheng City.
I don’t know what Changsheng City is like. None of the four major cities is a good city. It probably won’t be smooth sailing for Boss Ye if he goes there alone.
As he was worried, the communicator was connected and a familiar voice came from the other end.
"Hello? Hello... Hello..."
It was the voice of the little tentacle dumpling.
"Wait, why is my boss Ye's communicator also with you?" Zhong Mu was annoyed when he remembered that this little tentacle ball had run away with his and Brother Xiu's communicator overnight.
"My boyfriend is, busy..." the little tentacle ball answered haltingly.
Zhong Mu was speechless for a moment. "Your boyfriend is busy. What does that have to do with Boss Ye's communicator being in your hands? Don't bring up your boyfriend."
"Because, my boyfriend is, taking, his, life." The little tentacle ball tried very hard to explain to Zhong Mu, but Zhong Mu was still confused.
Brother Xiu is...taking Boss Ye’s life?
If you understand it in a normal way...
Um?
Uh-huh?
Zhong Mu's pupils were shocked, "Brother Xiu is killing Boss Ye?!"
"Ah?" Now it was the little tentacle ball's turn to be confused.
What? So my boyfriend is killing people?
It was stunned for a moment, then hung up the communicator angrily, "Then I'll go help my boyfriend!"
