Chapter 189: The Surprise of the Citizens
Both Xu Qianghua and Yan Yuehua spent the whole day inside the room without leaving, which did not concern anyone, as all the ladies knew this would happen sooner or later.
And if you are wondering if Yan Yuehua had the Dual Cultivation Manual, then yes, she did. She got it a few months ago after the conversation.
So, her cultivation realm has improved compared to a few days ago, which led to her stamina growing, extending the number of rounds of pure sex.
Meanwhile, in the Northern Continent.
As the new day began, loud bells were placed all around the city wall to wake the citizens up.
Hearing this, the tired citizens slowly woke up and made their way towards the front door to find out what all the fuss was about.
But as they opened their doors, they found a small stack of papers with a small transparent stone lying on top.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned as they did not know what to do since they had never seen a situation like this before.
But some of the curious citizens quickly picked up the items on the ground and started checking them to see what they were.
As they read the contents, their curious expressions turned to shock, then into enraged expressions as they finished reading what was on the stack of papers.
Then at the bottom of the last page, there was a special part explaining what the transparent stone was, and when they read it, they understood what this stone was.
"Watcher's Eye Stone," someone said.
Yes, a stone that takes photos and videos like a modern camera in the old world.
And with the explanation, the curious citizens understood what it was and how to use it.
So without hesitation, all of them used the stones, which caused a massive change in the surrounding air as a huge amount of Spiritual Qi was sucked in by those stones.
After sucking in the Spiritual Qi, all of the stones, including the ones that were not touched, blended together to form a moderate-sized rock.
Then, before anyone could say anything, the rock emitted a transparent light that slowly turned into an open-air screen.
The screen solidified, and then, without any warning, a video started playing on the screen.
What video was it? It was the video in which the dead city lord revealed his plan and what he had done before.
Seeing this, everyone in the city was stunned and silent, as everyone across the city could see this.
"How is this possible?" a man said out loud.
"When was this video recorded?" asked a woman as she watched the video in horror.
"How could the city lord do this to us?" someone said.
"I know some of the people he mentioned, as my friend was one of those people, but I didn't expect it to be this," a man murmured.
"So we were nothing more than sacrifices to him?" an old man said as he sat on the ground.
There were so many questions, but none of the people in the city could answer them.
All the people were completely confused or hysterical as they realized that yesterday was supposed to be their last day alive.
Meanwhile, all across the city, the forces that call this city their home were also in an uproar as they did not know what to do after seeing how someone wearing a black outfit killed the city lord.
This meant that while they were celebrating, their death certificates were being printed by their own city lord, but before they could be distributed in the form of a sacrificial formulation.
Someone came in, killed all the ones responsible, and then left the scene without revealing themselves, which is not something a normal person would do.
This is because the act of saving millions of people alone could give the person endless wealth and honor, which is something everyone wants, but the savior of their city did not want that.
Instead, the person was trying to keep their identity hidden from the people of the Northern Continent.
And just as they were thinking about this, the guard captain of the city defense force came on top of the city wall, and using his Spiritual Qi, he amplified his voice so that everyone could hear what he wanted to say.
"Everyone, please remain calm. However, this video shows that the previous city lord was an evil cultivator who had become our city lord for his own personal goals.
But we have to keep calm, as we do not know the whole story and do not know if something else is happening behind the scenes. So, I would like it if we kept everything that had just happened between ourselves without anyone else knowing.
Until then, along with the city defense force, the city's forces will do our best to figure out the situation as fast as we can," the captain said.
Hearing this, all the citizens calmed down and started to think about their own safety as they did not completely trust the defense army after their own city lord's actions.
And the guard captain could also see this, so he did not say anything more and just started rallying up his soldiers and beginning his work.
At the same time, he inspected every member of his force to see if anyone in the ranks was also part of the evil force.
But he did not know that all the evil cultivators in the city had already been killed, so his vigilance was wasted on nothing.
After inspecting all the troops, he found that there were no evil cultivators among them, which made him sigh in relief.
However, his focus then shifted to the unknown person who had killed the city lord.
"Hmmm, if that is true, then where did this person come from?" the captain murmured.
It was hard to believe that no one had seen or heard anything as the fight happened, but there were no eyewitnesses.
