Chapter 10.10

Probably because they were leaving Gagor, therefore leaving behind the temple, Brainless Sheng had been very quiet the last few days, no longer clamoring for control of the body, which made Zhou Yun Sheng let loose a huge sigh of relief.

At the moment, he was sitting in a luxurious and comfortable carriage, carving a statue of the Light God. In doing so, Brainless Sheng would be quieter, after only four hours of prayer every day and finishing a statue, he would go to sleep.

The Pope was also with them on the road. After passing through the elf and beastman villages they would part ways, one visiting the dark forest, the other returning to the Central Church.

Zhou Yun Sheng knew that the continent was not peaceful, but the situation was even more serious than in Joshua's memory. Demon fog seemed to be everywhere, in every passing town they would meet parasitic human beings. They either boldly slaughtered, or secretly made trouble to breed fear, disturbing the villagers' quiet and peaceful lives with earth-shaking events.

More demon fog corrupted and mutated plants and animals were lurking in the dark, waiting for their chance to move. Land and waters gone black, withered vegetation, these were the scenes Zhou Yun Sheng had become familiar with.

If things went on like this, the situation would become more and more serious. As the God of Light, shouldn't he be benevolent? Shouldn't he spill out light to banish the darkness? Why does Adounis seem to be behaving like a spectator? Can he not fight the Dark God?

Whenever Zhou Yun Sheng had such speculations, Brainless Sheng would jump out to vigorously defend his Father, giving him a very painful headache, so over time, he stopped thinking about it.

The Pope's team was falling in behind him. Every time they met a demon, the warriors and mages who guarded the Pope would work together to kill it, so the Pope never showed up, even the light circle that surrounded the group was held up by several other light priests.

After a long time, Zhou Yun Sheng finally bothered to speculate. He knew that the Second Prince and Boel's crowns and rings were broken, so the Pope's scepter should also be lost. The Light God had even rejected his destined lover, he wouldn't be more lenient on the Pope. It was not enough justice to just destroy his symbol of right, the Light God could've possibly also recovered the power he'd given him.

Yes, in this motherfucking world, a light priest's power could be taken away at any time, which was why Zhou Yun Sheng was not allowed to offend the God of Light. The God of Light manipulated the world with divine power, making all the creatures dance to his tune, who knows, maybe even the spread of demon fog was according to his will.

In this way, the God of Light didn't seem so bright. Of course, he only dared to rapidly flash this idea across his mind, afraid of waking up Brainless Sheng and bringing trouble.

He preached the gospel all the way, dispersing the demon fog, killing demons, purifying the contaminated land and water, causing the name of Priest Joshua to be gradually known. Especially to the people of Sagya Kingdom, who had already dubbed him a Holy Man.

One day, they finally left the Kingdom's land and set foot on the boundary of the elves and beastmen's land. The demon fog's situation there seemed to be more serious than in previous lands, along the way, large tracts of the forest was shrouded in black mist, just like another dark forest.

And the demonic and dark beasts were more frequent, and at a higher level.

Because there were no really strong light priests to prop up the light circle, the Pope's team suffered heavy casualties, which also confirmed Zhou Yun Sheng's suspicions. But he would never be kind enough to help the other man, instead, he chose to stand idly by. It would be best if the Pope died on his way back to the Central Church, he didn't forget that the Pope was coveting his light scepter and holy robe with poisonous eyes.
