Wandering Gods of Day and Night

"Each of us is insignificant, but when we unite, we can create a catastrophe in Mingjiang Prefecture. After the disaster, we will have the strength to challenge the God."

Liu Sheng muttered these words softly under his breath. He repeated them multiple times every day, as if only by doing so could he remember his hatred deeply.

"My brother smeared Zhou Xuan; he probably won't live much longer. I must endure, endure until the day of revenge."

Liu Sheng's brother was Liu Hao.

Cre-e-ak,

The door was pushed open, and Li Mingqi, the reservoir manager, walked in. Liu Sheng quickly slid the painting he was working on into the drawer.

Li Mingqi noticed Liu Sheng hiding something and chuckled awkwardly, saying, "What's with the hiding? Can't let people see it?"

"Nothing..." Liu Sheng felt a bit guilty.

"Let me see."

"It's really nothing."

"Show me." Without giving Liu Sheng a choice, Li Mingqi yanked open the drawer, immediately spotting the painting of Mingjiang's apocalypse.

Liu Sheng had already stepped aside, his hands behind his back, gripping a fruit knife tightly.

Li Mingqi can't be allowed to live!

Just as Liu Sheng was about to act, Li Mingqi remarked, "So you're working for Mr. Mo as well."

"Huh?"

Liu Sheng was shocked to hear this. He'd worked alongside Li Mingqi at the reservoir for years but had never realized they were both people planted by Mr. Mo.

"Did you receive the message about blowing up the reservoir?" Li Mingqi asked again.

As soon as he spoke, Liu Sheng immediately knew Li Mingqi was indeed one of Mr. Mo's men stationed at the reservoir.

He grabbed Li Mingqi's hand and said, "We're the same now."

Li Mingqi asked, "Did you receive the message about blowing up the reservoir or not?"

"I did, half an hour ago. You didn't?"

"I received it too, thirty-five minutes ago," Li Mingqi said. "I wanted to confirm if we're meant to act at the same time."

"Mr. Mo instructed us to act at 2:15."

Glancing at the office's quartz clock, Liu Sheng replied.

The quartz clock stood as tall as a person, with a base weighing nearly 30 kilograms.

"Then we act at the same time," Li Mingqi nodded and said.

"There are twenty minutes left. In twenty minutes, we will exact revenge."

Liu Sheng seemed particularly emotional. He walked to the doorway, pressed both hands against the iron railing, and looked out towards the reservoir, saying,

"The reservoir gate is loaded with a massive amount of explosives. It won't take long for the gate to blow open, and the water from Qinglianshan Reservoir will flood a good half of Mingjiang.

What an exhilarating moment! Mingqi, we're taking revenge. I will avenge my dead family members! Mingqi, why aren't you saying anything..."

Liu Sheng noticed Li Mingqi hadn't spoken for a while, so he turned to look. As soon as he did, he saw the large quartz clock coming straight at him.

Bang!

The clock struck Liu Sheng, knocking him into the railing, then his body collapsed onto the tiled floor.

Li Mingqi, with both hands clutching the quartz clock, smashed it against Liu Sheng's head once, twice, three times.

Blood and brain matter mixed as Liu Sheng's head turned into a gruesome pulp.

"We're the same..."

"You can be the same as that bastard Mo Tingsheng! I'm nothing like you!"

Li Mingqi's hands didn't hesitate as he lugged the quartz clock and struck multiple times, reducing Liu Sheng's head to utter fragments, killing him on the spot.

After dealing with Liu Sheng, Zhou Xuan's Divine Soul left Li Mingqi's body and disappeared from Qinglianshan Reservoir.

"Thankfully, Mrs. Duan's intel came just in time."

After Duan Qinglan provided the clue to Li Chengfeng, Li Chengfeng passed the "painting" lead to Zhou Xuan.

With this lead, Zhou Xuan wandered through eleven reservoirs in Mingjiang Prefecture via Day Trips until he uncovered Liu Sheng painting Mingjiang's apocalypse.

To eliminate Liu Sheng, Zhou Xuan let his Divine Soul enter Liu Sheng's co-worker, Li Mingqi.

"Possessing bodies with my Divine Soul—that's my old specialty."

After dying and becoming a ghost in his past life, Zhou Xuan had experienced body possession. Back then, he was still unrefined and failed repeatedly.

But now, Zhou Xuan's Divine Soul had reached the Day Trip Realm, effortlessly possessing the bodies of ordinary people.

"Old Li, notify the Painter that Mo Tingsheng's Mingjiang destruction plan has been set in motion. In less than twenty minutes, eleven reservoirs will be blown up simultaneously, and the Qinglianshan Reservoir's kidnapper disciple has already been dealt with by me."

Zhou Xuan's Divine Soul temporarily returned to his own body and relayed the newly uncovered details to Li Chengfeng at the City God Taoist Temple within the Secret Realm...
