I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night

Outside Heavenly Destiny City.

A figure gazed into the city from afar, revealing a smile.

"He has done better than I ever could."

"..."

Behind him was a young woman, her expression complicated, and she softly asked, "Commander, are you going to enter Heavenly Destiny City?"

"No need, seeing up to here is sufficient. It's time to prepare for the return journey and arrange the coastal defense, waiting to meet the Alliance Hierarch."

This man was precisely the Commander of the Main Hall of the Demon Suppression Department.

His apparent whereabouts were setting various affairs in the Withered Glory Sacred Land.

But in reality, he had already gone to the coastal defense when the Saint Master left the Shangri Sacred Land, arranging many things.

This secret return to Heavenly Destiny City was just to witness this scene with his own eyes.

He had doubted if the Saint Master would choose to compromise because of the attitude of the Holy Alliance's higher-ups?

Whether after killing Marquis Wangxi, he would choose to retreat for the so-called stability, allowing Marquis Wangxi to be posthumously promoted to Supreme Elder?

Whether he would weigh the pros and cons and bury the truth?

"If it were me instead..."

The Chief Commander sighed, "I could probably only force Marquis Wangxi away without promoting him to Supreme Elder, making him leave Heavenly Destiny City in shame."

"If the Alliance Hierarch were here, Marquis Wangxi must die, but he will not allow him to be posthumously promoted either, yet Marquis Wangxi's crimes might be covered up for the sake of stability."

"Only he can do it, never backing down, unveiling the truth!"

This Chief Commander, with hands behind his back, said, "He is even more arrogant and determined than the Alliance Hierarch in his youth... In the future, entrusting the position of Chief Commander of the Demon Suppression Department to him makes me feel at ease."

He looked at the young woman behind him and continued, "If he takes over in the future, he might rename the Demon Suppression Department as the Observatory. I leave a decree for you that no one in the Demon Suppression Department may obstruct anything he does."

"Yes!"

The young woman acknowledged, taking the decree with both hands, though showing some hesitation, and softly asked, "What is the significance of renaming the Demon Suppression Department?"

The Commander replied indifferently, "The Demon Suppression Department oversees all and suppresses the demons of the world! However, the name Observatory traces back to the Human Emperor Era, tasked with monitoring all beings under heaven and earth... Not only demons, but even the Human Clan is under their jurisdiction!"

Pausing, the Commander's eyes became somewhat fervent, and he said, "He shall be the sword hanging over the Holy Alliance, even balancing the next generation Alliance Hierarch!"

Within the Holy Alliance, the forces are deeply entangled.

Even the current Alliance Hierarch, once a mere commoner, established his rule with bloodshed, and to this day is deeply embedded within.

Interpersonal relationships, entangled interests.

This era faces the erosion of Deceit Night, hidden dangers of the Old Law, temptations from the Old God, recruitment by evil, and influences of ambition...

Past meritorious ministers may also go astray and become ones with faults.

"The deceased are forever departed, but after this incident, he has offended half of the Holy Alliance's high-ups."

The young woman spoke softly, "He is not one who measures advantages and disadvantages and balances various forces."

"But only such a person can be truly impartial, never yielding."

The Commander said with a smile, "Many times, capturing a mere pawn might offend the significant figures behind them! And if the pawn's harm isn't great, I would also turn a blind eye... just a warning to prevent further misdeeds, nothing more."

The young woman sighed, "But the Saint Master would eliminate even such a small mischief, regardless of offending powerful figures behind them! In doing so, he establishes countless enemies, becoming both terrifying and detested by the Holy Alliance's high-ups!"

"Only such a person is needed by the Holy Alliance!"

The Commander said, "In the past, we thought such yielding was to maintain the bigger picture, but in truth... that is the collapse of allowing order! By the time we realize it and are deeply trapped, it's already too late!"

"But the Saint Master, merely an outsider, with no entanglements, fears no offense, and conducts himself in a timely manner! As long as he remains true to his heart and acts with today's conviction, he can do no wrong!"

Hearing this, the young woman hesitated again and said, "But if he can wield a blade against future Alliance Hierarchs... won't his power be too great?"

"The power of the previous Alliance Hierarchs is already too great!"

The Commander said slowly, "So we need someone like the Saint Master to curb the power of future Alliance Hierarchs!"

"As for the Saint Master... he has great aspirations, and his actions in Heavenly Destiny City this time prove that he's always striving for this, with no retreat or compromise!"

"What changes the future holds, and whether the Saint Master will change, I cannot foresee."

"But in this era, the determination to establish a heart for heaven and earth, a destiny for the people... This steadfastness is what I have witnessed with my own eyes!"

"Child..."

The Commander turned to face the young woman, speaking solemnly, "You come from a distinguished background, bearing a mission! In the future, if the Saint Master's actions have errors, someone must remind him!"

——

The power of incense keeps rising!

At this moment, it has broken through the million mark, and it continues to climb!

At this moment, the Saint Master's reputation in Heavenly Destiny City has reached its peak!

And as today's events spread to the outside world, it will undoubtedly cause a huge commotion!

The name of the Human Race Saint Master will reach a higher level!

"Is this his method?"

The Heavenly Saint stood with his hands behind his back, sighing, "The high-ups of the Holy Alliance fear the status of the Human Martial Saint might be shaken, losing the high-ups' trust..."

The Old Taoist said, "From now on, strong as the Human Martial Saint, there will always be a sword hanging above their head!"

The Heavenly Saint gently stroked his beard, smiling and nodding, saying, "But it is a sword for the people to use!"
