Chapter 197 Awakening and alarming the big shopkeeper
Wang Sheng read the scriptures, unaware that time had passed and the night was getting dark, but Yunze City came to life.
The person who had fallen into a coma because of Qiao Nian's spiritual magic and fell into an endless sinking state began to gradually recover.
The first to recover were not the relatively powerful warriors, but ordinary people.
Qiao Nian didn't want to catch all the fish. When Endless Sinking drained their spiritual power, he didn't get much. Even in the previous battle, the scope of destruction was intentionally limited.
So these ordinary people were the first to recover.
Some of them were at home, but because the battle took place during the day and because Wang Sheng arrived, most of them were on the streets, or near the altar.
They were originally waiting for Wang Sheng's defeat nearby.
But that was under mental control. When they woke up now, they only felt that their spirits were extremely tired, as if they hadn't slept for a long time.
Many people are confused about their situation.
"I... feel like it's just a dream, as if I've lived a life that doesn't belong to me?" This is a scholar, and his memory is recovering.

"What is this? When did such a huge ruin appear here?" Some people were still looking around because their minds were not clear and they did not understand the matter.
However, as a gust of cold wind blew by, most people remembered what happened to Tianjiao. They were not completely hypnotized, but they just spent a very magical time, and their memories were not lost.
"Tianjiao, this should be the altar of Tianjiao, because it was destroyed in the previous war?"
The battle between Wang Sheng and Qiao Nian was not hidden from anyone, and almost everyone in the city saw it.
"All the altars representing the highest level have been destroyed. It seems like the leader of the Heavenly Sect has been defeated!"
"The Heavenly Religion was destroyed. Why don't I feel anything at all? I was supposed to be a believer in the Heavenly Religion. Is it possible that all that belief is fake?"
Some people doubt their own memory. They obviously believe in the Heavenly Religion, but they don't feel anything when the Heavenly Religion is destroyed. This is a bit contradictory.
Because they are all ordinary people, they have no concept of such things as mind control.
However, during the exchange, some smart people discovered something and knew that their previous state was not right.
"Why do I believe in heavenly religion? There are no signs at all. It shouldn't be. It seems to be controlled."
"So it turns out I'm not the only one who feels this way?"
Because everyone was gathered together, information was exchanged quickly, and some speculations spread quickly.
Many people find that they seem to have been controlled and manipulated by others. It is obviously them, but they do not seem to act according to their own ideas.
This speculation made their hair stand on end. Being manipulated is something that all intelligent creatures resist.
For a moment, everyone was panicked and in chaos.
Not long after ordinary people recovered, a large number of warriors who had their spiritual power extracted gradually recovered, and their condition was even worse than that of ordinary people.
However, it is not without reason that Qiao Nian dared to extract so much spiritual power from the warrior.
Warriors possess qi and blood, and although they cannot use their mental power, when their spirits are exhausted, their qi and blood will independently warm and nourish their spirits.
It didn't take long for the warrior to almost recover.
Almost all the warriors had complicated expressions, and some had collapsed beliefs.
Especially the four guardians.
"Have I been controlled for such a long time?" This is the Great Protector Qiao Fan, and his thoughts are a bit complicated.
Before this, he was extremely enthusiastic about building Tianjiao, but now he found that this enthusiasm was not his own heart, but was caused by being controlled.
He is still the most calm.
At the beginning, he took the initiative to join the Tianjiao, but he did not expect that the Tianjiao was so deep. Not only was he controlled when he entered, he also recognized the leader of the Tianjiao as his adopted father.
This is not the case for others.
The other three guardians were almost in tears, finding it difficult to accept their own affairs.
"I, Li Yun, a native of Luochuan Prefecture in Qingzhou, was converted here twenty years ago. I wonder how my parents are doing at home?"
This is the Second Protector Qiao Ji, whose real name is Li Yun. He is the only son in the family. He was forcibly saved by Qiao Nian twenty years ago and came here. After being apart for twenty years, he still doesn’t know what his family is like.
He was the only son of his parents and was very loved. If he just disappeared, his parents might be upset.
Qingzhou is thousands of miles away from Quanzhou. Once here, there is basically no possibility of finding my parents back.
So he was devastated.
Originally he was a filial son, but in the past twenty years he has considered a thief as his father and abandoned his parents for twenty years.
This was the hardest thing for him to accept.
In fact, not only him, but most of the stronger people within Tianjiao are in this situation.
Of the four protectors and the remaining nine masters, only the great protector and the two masters were mentally controlled after actively joining the Celestial Sect.
Others were forcibly converted.
Once the mental control is lifted, it is naturally difficult to accept it.
But their feelings towards Tianjiao are extremely complicated.
If it weren't for the resources provided by Tianjiao, I'm afraid it would be difficult for them to reach the master level.
Of course, this alone cannot relieve their hatred of Tianjiao. This kind of controlled life is extremely uncomfortable if you think about it carefully. This is completely unacceptable to them.
False feelings, false life, everything is false!
Some people were crying loudly and some were hysterical. This atmosphere lasted for almost half an hour.
Like ordinary people, these warriors have no amnesia and know more.
Many of them have also learned the method of secretly hypnotizing and controlling others, and know where the source of that method actually lies.
The ultimate core of this method lies in Qiao Nian. Only when Qiao Nian dies can they release control on such a large scale. At the same time, their original hypnotic control methods have also lost their effect. Without Qiao Nian, hypnotic control would be rootless.
.
But this also means that Qiao Nian is dead.
They warriors all knew that a strong man came to Yunze City and climbed onto the altar, and eventually a battle broke out.
Obviously, the ultimate loser is Qiao Nian.
"What kind of strong man is it that destroyed the altar like this?"
They were all involved in the manufacture of this altar, and they knew how many rare and solid materials were used in the altar. They almost hollowed out a mountain of extremely rare stones, and even if they were hit by a grandmaster, they would not be able to cause much damage.
But now it has been destroyed and turned into this.
This kind of destructive power is really too terrifying.
"I don't know if that adult has left or not. I have to go and thank him personally before leaving."
Many people do not want to stay, but plan to leave directly and return to their hometowns.
Before leaving, they also wanted to thank the strong man who killed Qiao Nian and saved them from suffering.
Especially the several guardians, they knew very well that Qiao Nian was a Grand Master, and the strong man who helped them solve the problem was at least a Grand Master, and he was also the strongest among the Grand Masters.
Even forming a good relationship is good.
"Go find it!"
After the mental control is over, no one has the feeling of being like a family. Everyone is definitely his brother and sister, and he even feels a little alienated from the control.
But simple cooperation is still possible.
It didn't take long for them to find the location of Wang Sheng's tiger car.
They all still remembered this car, entered their base camp very calmly, and even killed Qiao Nian in the end.
Finally, representatives of the fourteen masters entered the Yuelai Inn.
The shopkeeper and waiters of Yuelai Inn naturally reacted. As members of the Grand Master's influence, they were actually controlled.
Seeing the Fourteenth Grandmaster coming, the shopkeeper and the waiters felt as if they were facing an enemy.
Yunze City is the largest city in Quanzhou, so the storekeepers here are not weak in strength and are considered to be masters.
But facing fourteen grandmasters, he still couldn't see enough.
However, the shopkeeper did not give up and said: "The control has been lifted, do you still want to continue?"
Finally, the Great Protector stood up and said: "The shopkeeper misunderstood. We are here to find the person who saved us. He should be in the inn now."
The shopkeeper was a little confused. He had just woken up and had no idea what was going on: "In our Yuelai Inn!?"
"Yes, the gentleman's car is outside."
If the shopkeeper believes it, the fourteen masters will not let it go.
He glanced at the waiter, wanting the waiter to confirm.
But before the waiter could move, a cloth bag flew out from the guest room of the hotel upstairs, and at the same time there was a voice.
"Shopkeeper, this is the money for staying in the hotel. In addition, we will send food for twenty people."
No need to confirm this time.
They all know that this is the strong man.
They can't do this method of sending money anyway.
Several guardians looked at each other and then quickly knelt on the ground, showing great respect.
"Thank you, sir, for saving us from the fire and water, and for bringing the whole city out of misery!"
After speaking in unison, they kowtowed heavily, showing great gestures.
When the shopkeeper saw this scene, he quickly knelt down to express his gratitude.
Wang Sheng was naturally able to see this scene with his spiritual mind. He sighed and said, "Just do it, you can do it on your own!"
Thanks or anything, he doesn't care at all.
I just wanted to stay for a while and see what happens next.
"Besides, you don't have to come to me again!"
He didn't want to deal with any more trouble.
When the fourteen masters saw what Wang Sheng had said, they naturally understood what was going on. They looked at each other for a few moments and planned to leave, leaving something behind.
"We are resigning. These are some of our thoughts. Please accept them."
Everyone left, only the shopkeeper and the waiters were left. The shopkeeper went directly to the kitchen to prepare food for Wang Sheng, using only top-notch ingredients.
The waiter didn't do anything, but was ordered by the shopkeeper to report everything to the headquarters.
The headquarters of Yuelai Inn is in Chizhou, adjacent to Quanzhou.
As a result, Tianjiao did these things under the nose of the headquarters, and the headquarters will definitely take some action.
Of course, the shopkeeper only knew that there would be a big move, but he never thought that the action would be so big and even alarm the big shopkeeper Zhu Xiao...
