Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

The next morning, after a simple wash and breakfast, the group set off again.

Outside the cave, there was no trace of last night at all. Even the blood had been licked clean by an unknown beast.

Shen Xinlian walked in the front, changing direction from time to time to avoid potential threats.

"At this speed, if everything goes well, we'll reach the base in a day and a half at most." Chu Feng said with a smile.

"A day and a half is still too long. It would be great if we could get there today." Old Qin laughed.

Jiang Cheng also laughed.

He had figured it out. Although Old Qin was the oldest person here, his role was actually to liven up the atmosphere.

Chu Feng is the leader after all. Even though he always smiles, his aura is still there.

As for Captain Shen, her personality is not cold, but it is not hot either, and she is a woman.

Fortunately, Mr. Qin came to liven up the atmosphere, otherwise, the whole journey would have been quite awkward.

After a long journey, it was noon. The few of them heated up the leftover barbecue from last night, ate it, and set off again.

Just as the group was hurrying on their way, they arrived at a tunnel in the inner city of Dongfang City.

A group of people were kneeling in a room that looked like a temple, with their hands clasped together, their eyes closed, and they kept uttering prayer sounds, as if they were performing some kind of prayer ceremony.

Bishop An stood at the front, facing everyone, his eyes constantly scanning the believers.

See who is not diligent enough!

Just then, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside, and a believer moved his lips towards him.

Bishop An nodded and walked slowly towards him.

The believers seemed not to notice and still kept their eyes closed.

After leaving the hall and entering a small room next to it, the believer said, "Bishop, I have already found out that something happened to the Gu family in the city."

"The Gu family? The Gu family with the best business?"

"Yes."

"what's up?"

The believer immediately recounted the incident in detail.

"interesting."

After hearing this, Bishop An raised the corners of his mouth.

"How could the eldest young master of the Gu family be tricked by a poor boy from the slums?"

"Yes, Bishop, when I heard the news I didn't believe it. I asked a few more people and they all gave the same answer. That's why I dared to come and report to you." The church member smiled flatteringly.

"Yeah, well done."

Bishop An praised him verbally, "But Chu Feng was able to come all the way here to pick him up personally. That guy should be more than just a level 10 alchemist, right?"

"As expected of you, Bishop, I can hide nothing from you."

The believers flattered him at the right time, "That boy is really not simple. I heard that he can use seven or eight portions of medicinal materials to refine a furnace of top-grade awakening pills. It's okay once or twice, but he can do it for every furnace. Under Gu Changlin's command, he can create a profit of 500 to 600 million for him a month!"

"hiss……"

Bishop An took a deep breath.

Even though he is a bishop, he is short of money.

An income of 500 to 600 million a month was quite a lot for him. If he had known the identity of that boy, he should have kept him.

No, it seems impossible even with Chu Feng around.

"By the way, Your Excellency the Bishop, I also heard a little piece of information."

"Gossip? What gossip?"

"I heard that when Chu Feng and his companions left, they stole all the treasures on Gu Changlin's body. That boy is the eldest young master of the Gu family, so the treasures on him are naturally extraordinary. I heard that he even has a seventh-grade treasure."

"What, a seventh-grade treasure?"

Bishop An's squinting eyes suddenly widened.

"Yes, a seventh-grade treasure! The Calming Bead!" The cultist licked his lips, his face full of envy and jealousy. "Gu Changlin was carrying the Calming Bead with him at the time, and it was stolen. I heard that the head of the Gu family was so angry that he put him in solitary confinement. I guess there is no hope for him to inherit the position of head of the family."

"Is it credible?"

Hearing this, Bishop An's eyes were filled with suspicion.

That is a seventh-grade treasure, meant for the supremely powerful, but it is actually being carried around by a little kid?
"It's just gossip. I don't know if it's true or not. Anyway, that's what people say outside. I heard it came from inside the Gu family. I think it should be quite credible, right?"

After listening to this, Bishop An was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked: "What do you think will happen if we spread this news?"

"Spread the news?"

The believers were stunned and very confused. This news was brought back by him from outside. Was there any need to spread it again?
"fool."

Bishop An glanced at him and said, "What I meant is to spread the news of who stole the Calming Pearl."

"!!!"

The believers were so frightened that their eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

To be honest, although the Gu family offered a reward, he was not very tempted, because not only the Gu family, but the entire inner city area were their enemies. How could he tip off the enemy?
Moreover, the other party is the leader of the rebels. Even if the Gu family suffers a loss, it is highly likely that nothing will happen and the matter will soon fade away. It won’t be of much significance.

Of course, there is another reason besides this.

A reason few people know.

"Think about it, if the news that the Calming Pearl was stolen is true, how will the Gu family react when they find out who stole it? That is a seventh-grade treasure. We must get it back at all costs!"

The smile on Bishop An's face became more and more perverted.

"One is the Gu family, and the other is the rebels. Guess which one will win?"

"Your Excellency the Bishop, if we do this, Chu Feng will surely guess it. It is possible that he will tell the people in the Revenge Organization about this. In this case, it will be difficult for us to explain to them?" The believers looked embarrassed.

"Humph, what's so difficult to explain? They were the ones who took the initiative to seek cooperation with us, not us. Besides, do you think the rebels are harmonious among themselves?"

"What does the Bishop mean?" The believers were shocked.

"Human hearts are the most uncontrollable thing in the world, and the same goes for the resistance. Those two organizations have been displeased with Chu Feng and his group for a long time. If Chu Feng really dies, it won't be a bad thing for them, because then they can officially annex his territory. Then, the remaining two will merge into one, and the former resistance alliance will become a real resistance army."

"So," the believer suddenly realized, and then became a little curious, "But, will the Supreme behind Chu Feng agree?"

"The situation is stronger than people. When the time comes, you will have to agree even if you don't agree."

Bishop An smiled proudly, "So, by doing this, we are also doing them a favor, understand?"

"I understand. You are worthy of being the bishop! I will have someone spread the news right away to see if the news about the Dingshen Pearl is true. If it is true, the Gu family will definitely do their best, and then there will be something interesting to watch."

"Hahaha, go quickly." Bishop An laughed continuously.
