Chapter 446 – Where Is the Carriage Going? (2/2)

In his view, besides him, these five people at the level of Ethereal Opening had the ability to defeat the Star Condensation expert Zhou Ziheng.

”Qiushan Jun, Xu Yourong, and Gou Hanshi should have the ability. As for that Demon Princess, I've only heard rumors about her. A few days ago, I heard you say that in the Garden of Zhou, she beat you black and blue, where living was worse than death. No matter how I see it, for her to handle Zhou Ziheng would be a simple affair for her. Only...who is Lady Chujian? How come I've never heard of her before?”

Tang Thirty-Six asked him with great curiosity.

The story of the Plains of the Unsetting Sun had only been completely divulged to Luoluo. He had never mentioned that genius elf girl to Tang Thirty-Six.

Now, upon hearing Tang Thirty-Six's question, he didn't know how to answer. Thinking about how the status of that girl was still unknown made him lapse into an even deeper silence.

Tang Thirty-Six saw that his current emotional state was rather strange and ceased pursuing this line of questioning, thinking to find some other time to inquire about it. Instead, he asked, ”Where are we going right now?”

Chen Changsheng replied, ”To pick someone up.”

Watching as the carriage galloped off into the distance, the crowd was abuzz with discussion. After just concluding a shocking battle that involved surpassing cultivation levels, just where were these youths of the Orthodox Academy in a rush to get to?

The personnel of the Four Great Markets responsible for construction went to inquire if they should begin taking apart the awning. Unexpectedly, they received a reply in the negative.

The Celestial Pole Market was the most powerful of the Four Great Markets and possessed the deepest backing. All gazes rested upon the Grand Steward of this market.

The Grand Steward shot a glance at the nearby steward from the Heavenly Fragrance Market and said, ”There will be many more matches afterwards. This old awning, of course we have to keep it.”

There were no objections because everyone understood.

The new rule of the Orthodoxy had already been promulgated. From tomorrow on, there would be many more people coming one after the other to challenge the Orthodox Academy.

Chen Changsheng's victory today was not at all indicative of a conclusion. On the contrary, this was only the beginning.

Many matters of the secular world were like this. Whether in life or work, how could there possibly be such an easy way to bring things to a close? The vast majority of cases required dull and dry repetition.

For instance, the two officials from the Department for Purging Officials in that carriage on the other end of the street had just finished their report on today's battle and performed some initial analysis. Soon after, they still had to do their own jobs!

Just after the Orthodox Academy's carriage left, that carriage also began to move, following it from a distance.

The two carriages, one in front and one behind, traveled through the streets of the capital.

Along the way, countless pieces of information from the agents and spies the Department for Purging Officials had spread throughout the capital were transmitted to the carriage behind.

Those two officials were also very curious to know just where the Orthodox Academy's carriage was going. Of course, besides curiosity, they absolutely had to know the tracks and destination of that carriage.

The Orthodox Academy did not take any sort of circuitous route, having no intention of concealing its tracks, so following it was very smooth.

But the complexions of the two officials in the carriage were growing increasingly solemn and the shock in their eyes was growing ever more evident.

It seemed to them that this route they were taking was very familiar.

Because every day when they woke up in the morning, they would always take this route to go to work.

If the Orthodox Academy continued on this route, it would reach a certain location.

That place was called Zhou Mansion, and it was also called Zhou Prison.

Of course, that place also had a more formal name: The office of the Great Zhou Dynasty's Department for Purging Officials.
