Chapter 482: Chapter 315: The Tribulation Burning Sect Leader: Did I Overturn Qifeng Prefecture City?_2
"Cutting off the rotten flesh isn’t a loss at all."
At this moment, the Commander from the Observatory said, "Take Deputy City Governor Shi as an example, his family fortune is so immense it seems he wishes for ten generations of his descendants to cultivate without worries! In the past, hoarding these treasures in the warehouse was like accumulating a pile of waste stones..."
"Now, taking them out to fill the breaches in the city’s defenses, to improve the treatment of the City Defense Army, and to increase their salaries, medicinal baths, and Elixir Pills will be much better."
"Extracting the family fortunes of those criminal clans from the warehouses can also cultivate a batch of talents!"
"Reward achievements generously, especially with various resources beneficial for cultivation, will surely further inspire the courage of the current soldiers to fight for their futures with all their might!"
"The restructuring this time, with the growth of these talents, will soon be compensated."
"Moreover, after last night’s turmoil, the evidence that the Observatory couldn’t obtain before has surfaced... for instance, in the hidden warehouse of the Shi Family, there lies a ledger that can’t bear the light of day."
The Commander stated calmly, "In short, the plot last night has essentially achieved what we desired, just shy of one thing!"
Just shy of one thing!
All three understood what this meant!
It wasn’t that they failed to kill the Great Elder!
It was that the Great Elder had taken the Landscaping Technique a step ahead!
"Didn’t you also see the scene left by Pan Chengkong?"
Great Temple Priest Lu Changsheng, with a complex expression, said, "After all, it allowed him to comprehend for three breaths!"
"Three breaths?"
Great City Guard sighed and said, "Who can comprehend a Cultivation Technique within three breaths? Let alone the legendary Landscaping Technique?"
Even the most common fist and foot techniques, which are available to every Martial Artist, cannot be fully understood in just three breaths.
In just three short breaths, looking at a painting wouldn’t be enough time to discern what is depicted.
The Great Elder, who had cultivated his Primordial Spirit to the apex, had entertained thoughts about "Creation" for years, reviewed the insights of his predecessors, and it took him eighty-six breaths to understand its mysteries.
And Wu Chang, despite his high abilities, still hadn’t formed his Primordial Spirit and was only at the state of three souls and seven spirits, whose thoughts and ideas couldn’t compare to the purity and sharpness of the Primordial Spirit. Even if he were to observe for three days, he might not grasp the basics.
"..."
Lu Changsheng did not reply, his gaze slightly hazy.
Had Lin Yan previously said that the Landscaping Technique was nearly perfected?
It was hard for him to imagine, not to mention believe it.
He had been at the Wutong Temple for many years, and now as the Great Temple Priest, he had seen countless prodigies.
He had also had many dealings with the Li Shen Sect.
Even the Li Shen Sect couldn’t achieve a superior technique within three breaths, let alone the Landscaping Technique.
"Lu Changsheng?"
The Commander furrowed his eyebrows and suddenly called out.
They were discussing crucial matters concerning the future of Qifeng Prefecture, yet this Great Temple Priest was lost in thought?
"The Landscaping Technique will be handled separately."
Lu Changsheng came back to his senses and said just that before adding, "The scene left by Pan Chengkong, and the affairs here, have they been reported back to the Holy Land by the Great City Guard?"
"Of course, the Saint Master personally inquired and ordered me to report immediately after the incident, without delay," the Great City Guard paused before continuing, "At Taixuan Divine Mountain, the Great Elder was once one of those who held up the Heavenly Gang Flag."
"The bearers of the Heavenly Gang Flag have illustrious military achievements, established numerous merits, high prestige, and honored status."
"More importantly, when the Great Elder returned, he did not show any signs of losing control!"
"If we didn’t have solid evidence to prove that the Great Elder had lost control, his death here would have caused the predecessors who were holding strong at Taixuan Divine Mountain to feel unsettled, like grieving the death of a kindred spirit, leading to endless troubles!"
"Especially now, when the Holy Land has already changed, even the Saint Master himself has problems."
With a sigh, the Great City Guard went on, "Do the two of you think that those strong individuals who fight every day and night in the eerie nights of the Taixuan Divine Mountain, who are constantly on high alert, would suspect the Great Elder who fought alongside them for years and retreated peacefully from the battlefield in his later years, or would they suspect the injured Saint Master?"
"For them, losing control in the rear means cutting off their retreat... Even a figure like the Great Elder, who has outstanding military merit and survived on the battlefield, could not escape the fate of turmoil in the end."
As the Great City Guard spoke, both Lu Changsheng and the Supreme Commander fell silent.
In the era of eerie nights, the horror isn’t just from evil creatures.
In this era, the pitfalls of ancient methods may cause any strong individual to face the risk of losing control... even the Saint Master is no exception!
Therefore, the hearts of people in this era are filled with fragility, sensitivity, and sorrow!
And the more powerful they are, the more uneasy they become.

Outside the city.
Lin Lei rubbed his temples upon hearing the numerous clamorous sounds gathering outside the courtyard.
A sleepless night had indeed tired him.
Especially when a middle-aged man claiming to be the head of the Han Family forced his way into the courtyard last night.
Before Lin Lei could get a clear look at the man or Duke Murky Spirit could make a move,
the moment the middle-aged man entered the courtyard, he turned around and, with a slash of his own hand, severed his arm without hesitation, ruthlessly and decisively.
Then he picked up his severed arm, leaped backward with all his might, and crashed outside the courtyard with a thud, shouting, "What a sharp knife, Han is convinced!"
Lin Lei had thought about it all night but couldn’t figure it out – was that guy sick?
For the rest of the night until dawn, the knife mark left by Flames continued to attract various Martial Artists from all sides, who stopped to watch and try to comprehend.
The knife mark wasn’t too long, so there wasn’t enough space for everyone to observe, causing conflicts to arise.
Fortunately, Duke Murky Spirit’s methods meant few people broke into the courtyard.
The few who did breach the courtyard were scared off by Duke Murky Spirit’s illusion technique... of course, excluding the sick man from the Han Family.
