A sandy coastline.
Waves have shattered the surrounding rocks, leaving only the sandy beaches behind.
At this moment, Ye Bufan, holding the halberd, carefully observed the fluctuations of the waves, as if trying to discern the direction of the battle from them.
The waves, which were quite turbulent just moments ago, have now calmed down considerably.
"Has a winner been decided?"
Ye Bufan guessed that the person in the distance, gripping the gun barrel tightly, seemed somewhat unwilling to have been able to take action themselves.
Now that things have come to this, all Ye Bufan can do is sigh.
rustle…
The sound of his footsteps on the sand was not loud, but at this moment it rang in his ears like thunder.
"who!"
With his angry shout, Ye Bufan quickly turned around and saw the appearance of the person who had come.
Qin Sheng smiled slightly, making no attempt to hide his feelings, and said casually, "What a coincidence, Ye Bufan."
Ye Bufan was stunned for a moment, then burst into joy.
"Qin Sheng?!"
I was worried about Qin Sheng's position, fearing that he might be accidentally harmed by the demigod's purge.
But seeing him here, Ye Bufan's heart immediately settled down.
"What are you doing here? Never mind, now is not the time to talk about this. We need to hurry back and bring the others out of the city as well."
Ye Bufan spoke quickly: "Let's go, I'll take you back to Dean Mo's place first, to avoid any further accidents or encounters with other believers."
As he spoke, he unconsciously clenched his fist, clearly thinking of the cult leader who was the culprit.
But when he got close to Qin Sheng, he didn't notice the playful look on the other's lips.
"A believer."
Qin Sheng raised his hand, followed by a faint smile.
Is that what you mean?
As soon as he finished speaking, continuous dragon scales appeared on Qin Sheng's arm, instantly transforming into a dragon claw that suddenly fell towards the still bewildered Ye Bufan.
The terrifying force struck Ye Bufan's head directly, seemingly aiming to shatter it!
Ye Bufan didn't even have time to think, but his body reacted instinctively, holding his weapon horizontally in front of him.
With a loud bang.
The dragon claw slammed into the halberd, and the terrifying force sent up a cloud of dust.
Ye Bufan's figure shot out like a cannonball, leaving a furrow in the ground.
"Qin Sheng? What are you doing?!"
Ye Bufan's voice was full of disbelief. Even though his insides were churning, he still couldn't understand why Qin Sheng would make a move.
"Isn't it obvious?"
Qin Sheng said slowly and deliberately.
"You've become a follower too?" Ye Bufan's expression changed slightly. "Could it be that the leader isn't dead yet?"
"Of course he's not dead."
Qin Sheng's figure gradually swelled, and the dragon's tail slammed into the ground.
"Because I am the cult leader."
Ye Bufan's pupils contracted, and his eyeballs trembled slowly.
Although the second potion changed his appearance after transformation, the overall image of the cult leader could still be discerned.
With Qin Sheng's voluntary admission, this fact was laid bare before Ye Bufan.
He stared intently at Qin Sheng, his voice trembling, but the words seemed stuck in his throat, leaving him confused and at a loss.
He didn't understand why Qin Sheng was the cult leader!
Isn't that strange?
Qin Sheng, now back in human form, leisurely asked, "Why is the Church of Creation targeting you?"
Ye Bufan recalled that when he returned to District Seven, Qin Sheng was also nearby when the first cultist, Xu Nanshi, appeared.
"Back then, I was just an ordinary person with no ability to protect myself," Qin Sheng said with emotion. "Although after converting Xu Nanshi to a believer, I had him clean up the traces around him."
"But you do know him. If you remember his identity and investigate the surrounding area on that day, you might find some clues."
After a pause, seeing Ye Bufan's sudden realization, Qin Sheng nodded: "It seems I guessed right, you did leave a clue after all."
"But why?" Ye Bufan's heart was ashen, his voice bitter. "Why did you turn Xiao Pang and Yu Rui into believers?"
"If it were aimed at me, wouldn't you have had the chance to kill me long ago!"
"Why! Why do you keep taking away my friends! Why do you keep torturing me!"
Ye Bufan's voice gradually grew angry, and finally he roared at Qin Sheng.
"Don't underestimate yourself." Qin Sheng said helplessly, "I've tried many times, but haven't you noticed that you've managed to escape danger every time?"
"Even though the initial followers were far stronger than you, someone always appeared to help you when you were exhausted."
“The city guards, Zhang Xiande, and even Luo Hongxia, who was granted the title of king, appeared that night in the library.”
Qin Sheng said slowly, "In the future, whenever you encounter danger, the Venerable One will appear to save you."
“Every time you seem to be on the verge of life and death, you always manage to escape unscathed and improve your strength. Don’t you think you’re too lucky?”
Ye Bufan stood there dumbfounded. What he had always taken for granted suddenly seemed strange.
Moreover, this phenomenon has become more frequent these days, to the point that believers can silently go to the Kaitian Academy and serve as stepping stones for him.
"All of this is because the human race's fortune has paved the way for you."
Qin Sheng then pointed to himself and joked, "Unfortunately, I've also been chosen as one of your stepping stones."
Ye Bufan stared blankly at Qin Sheng, his expression frozen.
"However, the human race's destiny has miscalculated." Qin Sheng narrowed his eyes: "You can't get past me as a stepping stone, and the human race's destiny will have to be forced out here by me."
