Chapter 16170 One Month
Upon seeing Sang Mufeng dead, the remaining members of the Creation God Sect turned extremely pale. They all stared intently at Xu Ying. Xu Ying looked at them and then said, "We agreed beforehand that this was a duel, with no regard for life or death. So it's normal for me to kill him. Now we have six wins and three losses, so we don't need to fight the last match. We won. The city lord is right here. We didn't cheat at all. You can go back now and explain this situation to your sect. If your sect doesn't recognize this duel, then bring it on. Our Myriad Laws God Sect isn't afraid of anyone."

“If the Creation God Sect doesn’t recognize this bet, they can come to me. I’m a fair person. If they don’t recognize this bet, then they don’t recognize me as a fair person. Just have them come and talk to me then. Alright, the Myriad Laws God Sect wins this bet. You can go back now.” Yu Changkong turned to the few people from the Creation God Sect and said.

The members of the Creation God Sect glanced at Yu Changkong, said nothing, and turned to leave. After they left, Yu Changkong turned to look at Xu Ying, nodded to her, and then led his men away. He didn't say much to Xu Ying, worried that someone would notice them and that it would be a real problem if someone suspected them.

As soon as Xu Ying saw the people from the Creation God Sect leave, he led the Blood Slaughter Sect members away as well. After they left, a person slowly emerged from the valley. This person seemed to have completely merged with the valley, and no one had noticed him. He had truly turned into a stone. This person was also from the Creation God Sect, and he used the Creation God Sect's technique, the Life-Creating Technique. This technique is extremely powerful, allowing him to merge with anything, but you cannot move. Once you move, this technique will become ineffective, and your form will be exposed.

The people from the Creation God Cult had been lying in wait here for a long time. They wanted to see what the outcome would be, and at the same time, they also wanted to see if Yu Changkong and the people from the Myriad Laws God Cult were colluding. So far, they had not seen any collusion between them.

The person from the Creation God Cult then left the valley, and the valley finally returned to peace. After Xu Ying and the others returned to the city, they did nothing as if nothing had happened.

Meanwhile, the members of the Creation God Sect already knew about the outcome of the contest. They were quite surprised by the result; they thought they would win, but they never expected to lose so decisively. This was something they never anticipated. Regardless, they had lost. They still had a guarantor in this contest: Yu Changkong. Although Yu Changkong's strength wasn't particularly high, his status was undeniable—the lord of a city, and a member of the Yu family. Offending him would certainly not end well. Therefore, the Creation God Sect decided that they would definitely abide by the agreement in Beast Suppression City, but if the Myriad Laws God Sect dared to build temples in other places, they would not be so lenient.

To the surprise of the Creation God Cult, their bet with the Myriad Laws God Cult was somehow leaked out, and soon many people in the Divine Kingdom knew about it. This made the Creation God Cult feel ashamed; there was nothing they could do, they had lost the bet, and of course they were embarrassed.

The Creation God Cult believed that the matter might have been spread by someone from the Myriad Laws God Cult, but they couldn't guarantee that it wasn't Yu Changkong who spread it. Yu Changkong was a member of the Yu family, which was also one of the aristocratic families. The relationship between those aristocratic families and the Creation God Cult wasn't very good, so it wasn't impossible that they would spread the matter.

After this incident spread, it immediately caused a great sensation in the Divine Kingdom. Many ordinary people in the Divine Kingdom were unaware of the existence of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, since it only appeared in Beast Suppression City and not elsewhere. However, after this incident, many people in the Divine Kingdom learned about the Myriad Laws Divine Sect and began to learn about it. They discovered that such a divine sect actually existed in the world. If you followed one of their people, walked around their temple, and said that you would start believing in the Myriad Laws Divine Sect from today, they would give you three kinds of magic techniques. In the eyes of many rogue cultivators, such a sect was a divine sect. These rogue cultivators did not believe in any religion. Even if the Creation Divine Sect was the state religion, they did not believe in it. But if believing in the Myriad Laws Divine Sect could bring them benefits, then they would believe in the Myriad Laws Divine Sect.

There are many independent cultivators who want to acquire a spell, but that is extremely difficult. Every spell comes at a price. Although some spells don't require much money, they still need money. And the income of independent cultivators is very unstable. Many independent cultivators need to save money for a long time in order to learn a spell. But now, they only need to go to the Beast Suppression City, follow the people of the Myriad Laws Cult, and take a walk around the temple. They can get three spells. Of course, they are very happy.

It is precisely because of this that many independent cultivators travel from other cities to Beast Town City via teleportation arrays, then go to the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws and say they want to join the Myriad Laws Sect. And they actually succeeded in doing so, and everyone learned those three spells.

This led to an influx of rogue cultivators to Beast Suppression City. The Temple of Ten Thousand Laws was constantly busy, but unbeknownst to anyone, everyone who came to the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws, declared their intention to join the Myriad Laws Sect, and followed members of the sect for a short while, ultimately became undead. Now, the Blood Slaughter Sect could transform people into undead without killing them. They simply imprinted a necromancer rune into the person's body when they were defenseless, and that person would become an undead—a necromancer who understood the Blood Slaughter Sect. When the necromancer rune entered the person's body, they wouldn't react at all, not even momentarily stunned, and no one would notice anything amiss. Therefore, after leaving, these rogue cultivators appeared to be normal, but in reality, they had become undead.

They had all become members of the undead race, so of course they couldn't say anything about their dissatisfaction with the Myriad Laws Cult anymore. On the contrary, they would speak well of the Myriad Laws Cult, thus preventing the attraction of more rogue cultivators. These rogue cultivators couldn't stay in Beast Town City forever. After learning the three spells, they would leave Beast Town City and return to the cities where they had lived before. And they would naturally become spies for the Blood Slaughter Sect.

Time passed little by little, and this wave of events finally subsided after more than a month. In that month, Xu Ying and his group turned more than 100,000 rogue cultivators into the undead race. Of course, outsiders were unaware of this.

It was precisely because of this incident that the attention of the Divine Kingdom was drawn to Beast Town City. Naturally, they did not notice that the Blood Slaughter Sect had already taken action against other sects. Of course, they chose some small sects to ensure that there would be no problems in dealing with those small sects, and no news would be leaked.

More than a month later, the uproar had subsided. Xu Ying had already consulted with Chang Jun, who had given his permission. They were preparing to build the second Temple of Ten Thousand Laws. Of course, this time the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws would no longer be built in Beast Town, but in another city not far from Beast Town, called Golden Year City.

Jin Sui City is a city similar to Zhen Shou City. There is nothing special about this city, and it is even less prosperous than Zhen Shou City. Because Zhen Shou City is very close to Wan Shou Mountain, many rogue cultivators use it as a base to go on adventures in Wan Shou Mountain, so there are many rogue cultivators there.

Jin Sui City is different. It is far from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain and there are not many independent cultivators. Therefore, Jin Sui City does not seem as prosperous as the Beast Town City. However, Jin Sui City has something that the Beast Town City does not have: it is not a noble family.

The city lord of Jin Sui City is a scion of a prominent family, but he is from a very large family. The "prominent families" in Jin Sui City do not refer to the city lord, but rather to the smaller families that already existed in Jin Sui City.

Over the years, the Divine Kingdom has developed into numerous large and small aristocratic families. Large families, like the Yu family, have members holding high-ranking positions in the Divine Kingdom, numerous disciples, and formidable strength. The strength of such a family is far greater than that of ordinary sects. This is a great aristocratic family.

As for the minor aristocratic families, their strength is not very strong. The influence of a family cannot even extend beyond the city where they live. Members of their families usually serve as minor officials in the city. These people do not have official titles, but they work for the government, so they have considerable power. Such minor officials are usually family-run, passed down from generation to generation. When a new city lord comes, he usually won't touch these people. These people have been operating in the city for many years and have a lot of influence. With them, it is easier for the city lord to control the city. Without them, it would be very difficult for the city lord to control the city.

There's a saying that goes, "No matter how incorruptible an official is, he can't escape the slippery clerks." Officials might be transferred, but many clerks are hereditary. So, no matter what kind of city lord comes, they generally won't easily touch these clerks, because if these clerks really cause trouble, the city might descend into chaos, which is something the city lords don't want to see. Of course, the smaller families won't offend the city lord either. After all, if they offend a powerful family, that powerful family might really wipe them out. So, they will never neglect the city lord, sending all sorts of gifts. They will even send things to the city lord's family to build a closer relationship. As long as they can establish a connection with those powerful families, these smaller families are willing to do anything.
