Chapter 130: Daytime Fireworks
Unfortunately, this floating island is the headquarters of the Gospel Department. The prisoners will not be detained here, so Huangfu Ji cannot take the captured people away. It is a small regret.
After Huangfu Ji left this place, he did not stop at all and went directly back to the "Divine Shuttle of Dividing Water and Opening the Earth".
The next moment, the "Divine Shuttle of Dividing Water and Opening the Earth" appeared above the King's District again.
Because Huangfu Ji remembered something: "The home of the traitor is in the King's District?"
His subordinates gave a positive answer and controlled the "Divine Shuttle of Dividing Water and Opening the Earth" to hover above Sun Zhongnu's residence.
As Qi Xuansu expected, Sun Zhongnu set up his home as a trap, waiting for the assassins of Beichen Hall to come to the door, so he did not move, and the people inside were bait.
Not only his family is here, but also many elite forces of the Gospel Department are guarding.
If you do it according to Li Mingzhen's set, you will definitely suffer heavy losses, and it is very likely to be futile.
But just as Sun Zhongnu did not expect Qi Xuansu, a dignified lotus seat, to personally kill him, Sun Zhongnu also did not expect that Huangfu Ji, the next generation leader of Xidaomen, would personally do this dirty work.
"There is no way. This time, Chief Qi helped us a lot. We have to repay him. I know that Yujing is strictly controlled. There are too many Taoists in Huapu, and even trivial things are exaggerated. Let us Xidaomen be the bad guys. I will bear the blame."
Huangfu Ji appeared outside the "Divine Shuttle of Dividing Water and Opening the Earth" and slapped it.
A palm that fell from the sky.
The people in the house and the people ambushing outside the house did not know what happened.
It is just like the saying, destroying you, what does it have to do with you?
It was not until the violent whistling sound came that someone looked up belatedly.
All they saw was a palm covering the sky and stirring up the clouds.
This is the last picture of this life.
The next moment, the earth shook violently, and the entire building was razed to the ground, as if it had been wiped out directly, leaving only a plain and unadorned huge palm print.
Huangfu Ji was too lazy to take another look, but turned his head to look in the direction of the upper city.
Almost at the same time, the "Phoenix Eye Armor II" finally exploded.
Because it exploded inside the floating island, there was a layer of buffer, so the visual effect was not as amazing as a direct explosion, but it was still shocking.
In an instant, many clearly visible huge cracks appeared everywhere on the floating island, and dazzling light shot out from the cracks, and then more and more cracks appeared, and finally connected into one, causing the floating island to begin to break and disintegrate, and more and more strong light gushed out, engulfing the entire floating island from the inside out.
There seemed to be an extra round of bright sun in the sky.
"The fireworks in the daytime are really dazzling."
Huangfu Ji sighed and turned to enter the "Water Dividing and Earth Opening Shuttle".
At this time, the people of the West Dao Gate were ready. When Huangfu Ji came back, he directly started the "Water Dividing and Earth Opening Shuttle", which flashed away, leaving only ripples in the original place.
When the strong light slowly dissipated, the floating island in the upper city of St. York was forever missing, and a huge fireball was falling down.
Below it was the church area in the middle city.
However, the fireball began to dissipate, split, and disintegrate on the way down, and turned into more small fireballs, like a rain of fire, which was the wreckage of the floating island. ….
Qi Xuansu only wanted to sink the floating island at the beginning, but he never thought of completely destroying a floating island, which shows how powerful it is.
The rain of fire fell in the church area.
The spire of St. Francis Cathedral flashed, blocking most of the flames outside, and some of the flames that fell to the ground were quickly extinguished.
A moment later, a wave of anger swept across the entire St. York.
Joseph Norman, Cardinal, also known as the Cardinal, is second only to the Pope and the Patriarch. Finally back.
The Patriarch is the leader of the Steam Gospel, and Joseph is the second person in the Steam Gospel. The Patriarch is the face, and Joseph is the inside. As the saying goes, the face should be bright and shiny, without any dust. As the face of Steam Gospel, the Patriarch is not good at doing many things personally. For example, the Gospel Department is a special organization that specializes in dirty work. The Patriarch is generally not good at leading it personally, so the second person takes care of it.
In the Old World, the leader of the Inquisition was once called the "Black Pope", which shows the power of the Inquisition. Later, the Inquisition was reorganized into the Inquisition Department, and Steam Gospel was changed to the Gospel Department, but there was no change in essence, so Joseph was also called the "Red Patriarch".
Now, the Gospel Department led by him personally has its headquarters blown up.
He stared at the blank area where there should be a floating island, full of anger but nowhere to vent.
The people around Joseph were silent, not daring to say a word, for fear of being angered. Milton, who was in a mess, came in a hurry. Because time was tight, although Huangfu Ji defeated Milton, he did not kill him. Milton naturally would not stay on the floating island to die on the island, but escaped.
Joseph looked at Milton, his dark green eyes like a demon: "Milton, you have to give me an explanation, give the cardinal an explanation."
Milton hurriedly said: "It was Huangfu Ji from the West Gate. I can't stop so many people by myself."
"Where are the people? Where did they go?" Joseph was like an old lion, trying his best to suppress his rage, "Where did the people from the Gospel Department go?"
Milton answered with a stiff face: "Most of them were sent out to arrest the chief of Beichen Hall."
"What about the chief? We sent so many people out. Did you catch him?" Joseph continued to ask, "After paying such a high price, there must be some gains, right?"
Milton could only answer: "The target has been locked. I believe there will be results soon."
"That means he was not caught." Joseph said coldly.
Milton was speechless.
Anyway, Milton is one of us, a cardinal priest recognized by the Holy See. Joseph couldn't really do anything to him, so he asked, "Where are the people in the city council? Are they just watching this happen?"
Milton breathed a sigh of relief: "As far as I know, Speaker Sofia is chasing another pagan at sea, and has mobilized a large number of steam elite teams, giving the city council an excuse for insufficient strength. And such a thing is naturally the responsibility of the ruling majority party. The minority party will only watch the joke and won't help them clean up the mess."
Joseph was silent for a moment, calmed his anger, and then asked, "Have you determined the position of the chief of Beichen Hall?"...
"Yes." Milton replied quickly, "His destination is the Mission San Antonio, we will definitely be able to stop him."
Joseph's tone was cold: "I hope so."
At the same time, Qi Xuansu's body and Wu Niang were rushing to the Mission San Antonio. The combination of the three is Qi Xuansu's heyday.
As for Sophia, who was following Wu Niang, she did catch up with Wu Niang, but there is often a problem in the pursuit of people. Although the people chasing people are numerous, they are bound to be uneven. Some are fast and some are slow. Once the distance is extended, they are no longer in a group, but become a long snake formation. The fast people have caught up, and the slow people are still far away. The fast people will fall into the situation of fighting alone.
The same is true for Sophia. She did catch up with Wu Niang, but she caught up alone. This was her mistake. After a fight between the two, Sophia was defeated and had to return to St. York.
Even if she was not injured by Wu Niang, she had to go back. After all, such a thing just happened in St. York, and she, as the speaker, could not escape the blame.
Returning to St. York, she not only had to face Joseph's questioning, but also had to face the abdication of the minority party headed by Leopold. It can be said that she lost both the lady and the army.
Without the pursuers, Wu Niang naturally had to meet up with Qi Xuansu.
Of course, Qi Xuansu also noticed that the people of the Gospel Department were gradually closing the net. It's not that he escaped the interrogation once and everything was fine, but repeated interrogation, constantly narrowing the scope, and finally determining the target.
The closer Qi Xuansu got to the San Antonio Mission, the more difficult it was to conceal his identity, but Qi Xuansu was not afraid, because the West Daomen decided to take action, which was both good and bad. There is no need to talk about the disadvantages, which was contrary to Qi Xuansu's original intention to come to the New World, but the advantage was that the West Daomen sent people to the New World, and they must station troops at the border as a support. The closer Qi Xuansu got to the border, the closer he was to his own people.
San Antonio is the largest city closest to the border between the north and the south, which is beneficial to Qi Xuansu. If there is any conflict, the people of the West Daomen will arrive soon.
In any case, the West Daomen still needs the Daomen, and it is impossible to let Qi Xuansu, the special envoy of the Daomen, die in the New World.
In a sense, Qi Xuansu's position, coupled with the various complex relationships he was involved in, made him a member of the Taoist high-level, that is, one of their own, even closer than Wang Jiaohe, a real person who was a wise man.
The decision-making level of the Taoist is also composed of people, and it is inevitable to talk about emotions. If Qi Xuansu really died, it would be difficult to explain emotionally.
The family members of ordinary people would at most cry and make a fuss, and then send someone to comfort them. It's no big deal.
But whether it's Qi Niang or Zhang Yuelu, these family members are not weak women who can be sent away at will. They have great power and are in the right. If they really want to block the door and ask for an explanation, no one can deal with it. After all, the Taoist sect emphasizes unity, which has never been an empty talk. Don't do things that are not conducive to unity. Such things are not easy to force, which destroys unity.
Moreover, such a big living person was sent out, but he died because of his own people. Whether it is Qi Xuansu's direct boss Qingwei Zhenren or Qi Xuansu's old boss Donghua Zhenren, they should come forward to ask for an explanation and uphold justice.
Just kidding, if you regard the Dao Sect as a big family, do you really think there is no man in charge of this family? Whoever can uphold justice for his family has more reason to compete for the power of the head of the family.
In addition, Cihang Zhenren is also considered a half-elder, and the attitudes of the three crown princes of the Dao Sect are unified. The three elders above are not easy to object, and this must be the attitude of the Dao Sect.
Once you talk about love, you will lose money, and the amount is huge, which is something that the Western Dao Sect does not want to see.
Therefore, the Western Dao Sect must ensure the safety of Qi Xuansu, which is an unquestionable premise.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu did not take risks blindly, but did so when he saw it clearly.
