Chapter 203: Spreading Rumors and Lies
The atmosphere inside the Ironclad Department was tense. Yang Ling stood in the center of the courtyard, facing the corpse of a constable.
Several severely injured constables were nearby, receiving treatment from physicians.
Constables filled the surrounding area, each wearing a different expression. Most were filled with panic.
Chen Guoqing said in a low voice, “Chief Constable Yang, recently a cult called the Immortal God Sect has appeared in our Green Mountain City.
Many commoners have already joined, secretly offering money and goods.
I’ve received news that Luo Yu is a Protector of the Immortal God Sect. The underlings now call him Protector Luo.”
He paused, glanced at the corpse on the ground, and spoke with a heavy tone:
“He might already know how to make explosives, calling them ‘Heavenly Fire.’ After what happened today, many people will believe in the Immortal God Sect’s power and choose to join them.”
Yang Ling said thoughtfully, “I just went to the Yunwen Provincial Capital. Heretic Cultists from the Immortal God Sect have appeared there too.
