"Ah, it's another rebellion by the Fa School and the siege of the Taoist sects. It's all a mess, everyone is involved."
Nan Gong seemed a bit impatient with the current situation.
Hearing this, Li Huowang's heart suddenly stirred, "How is the siege of the Taoist sects going?"
"See for yourself, I'm still busy here."
As the thick book was opened, and he saw the wanted posters of the Taoist sects, with the words "kill" written in large characters,
Li Huowang felt a lot more relieved. The Celestial Supervisory Bureau was doing a good job in dealing with the Taoist sects.
With the records in this book and the previous battle in the capital, Li Huowang judged that the situation with the Taoist sects was almost under control.
Even though the Celestial Supervisory Bureau had made great gains in dealing with the Taoist sects, all four Beifeng were killed, three Dongfeng died, two Red died, one White died, and one Fa Cai died.
And the previous Dice had already died, which meant that the only remaining Dice was in a precarious situation.
"Our Celestial Supervisory Bureau has put in a lot of effort to deal with the Taoist sects." Li Huowang said as he flipped through the pages, speaking to Nan Gong behind the wooden cabinet.
"More than that, I heard that in order to deal with the Taoist sects, not only did the Celestial Supervisory Bureau of other countries join forces, but also many orthodox sects were mobilized within the bureau, and a lot of money was spent to persuade them."
"Orthodox sects?" Li Huowang recalled some unpleasant memories.
"However, it's not easy to find the Taoist sects now. Faced with this situation, the Taoist sects have all gone into hiding and dare not show their faces. They haven't caught anyone in the past month."
Hearing this, Li Huowang nodded silently.
He was threatened by the Dice, and his situation was not good, but the situation of the Dice was not much better. It seemed that his chances of winning were not small.
The only difficulty now was that Bai Lingmiao was in his hands. If he couldn't ensure her safety, it would be useless even if he won.
Li Huowang closed the book in his hand and looked at Nan Gong in front of him again, asking, "Why isn't there a wanted poster for the Dice of the Taoist sects?"
"Oh? You know quite a bit. You actually know about the Dice. The matter of the Dice is the responsibility of the Lord of the Celestial Supervisory Bureau. He is the leader of the Taoist sects, and ordinary people can't deal with him at all."
The Lord of the Celestial Supervisory Bureau. Li Huowang remembered the long, strange nails under the cloak.
Li Huowang was not surprised that the Lord of the Celestial Supervisory Bureau could deal with the Dice. But even he, as the Red of the Taoist sects, didn't know where the Dice was now. Could they really find the Dice?
"Wait a minute, the Taoist sects from Daqi might not have left yet. Did they ambush the Celestial Supervisory Bureau together?" This thought sent a chill down Li Huowang's spine.
"Brother Li, rest assured, they are not that bold. After all, they are from Daqi and can't stay in Daliang for long." Hearing Zhuge Yuan's reply, Li Huowang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
That's right, the Celestial Supervisory Bureau had seen the Taoist sects from Daqi come, and he would definitely consider this kind of thing.
"By the way, Brother Nan Gong, there's a lot of commotion in the capital recently. Is there any internal news in the Celestial Supervisory Bureau?"
Hearing this, Nan Gong, who had just been indifferent, seemed serious. His voice also carried a hint of unfamiliarity.
"Ears, you know the rules of the Celestial Supervisory Bureau. We never get involved in the struggle for power in the royal family. If you want internal news, don't come to the Celestial Supervisory Bureau, there's none at all. The Four Libraries won't remember a thing."
"Since we know each other, I'll remind you, although you are a member of the Celestial Banner, you are not an official. You are at most a casual worker in the bureau. If you insist on meddling, the bureau won't come to take you back."
"But if something really happens, even if you are killed or tortured by someone else, the bureau won't come to collect your body. You need to think about this carefully."
"The change of the Daliang Emperor is such a major event, and the bureau really doesn't care at all?"
"What's there to care about? The Celestial Supervisory Bureau does have some things to discuss with the emperor, but the throne hasn't been secured yet, so let them fight. Whoever wins will be the emperor."
"You may not know, there are plenty of such things in the history books, even more outrageous than this. The bureau is already used to it."
"Don't worry, the civil and military officials are not blind. At most, a few people will die, and it won't shake the foundation of the country. If things really get out of hand, someone will step in."
The reaction of the Celestial Supervisory Bureau was even more indifferent than Li Huowang had imagined. They only cared about when the most poisonous and powerful king would appear, and how many gu insects died in the process, without even considering taking a look.
"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Nan Gong." Having inquired about no other news, Li Huowang did not linger in the underground hall and returned to his own room from the Celestial Supervisory Bureau.
When he arrived back at the courtyard that was given to him, Li Huowang sat on the bench under the low tree, silently calculating all the information he had found in the capital for the time being.Li Huowang once again confirmed his objective: to save Bai Lingmiao, and if possible, to cooperate with the Supervisory Heaven Office to kill Dice.
Once there's a first time, there will be a second. To eliminate the weeds, you must remove the roots; only the dead pose no threat.
But now, to achieve these two goals is extremely difficult.
He didn't know where Dice was, nor where Bai Lingmiao was trapped. Unsure of where to exert his efforts, he couldn't even find a direction to start.
As he pondered, Li Huowang's gaze hardened, and his fists gradually clenched. "I'm still too weak; I must not stop cultivating!"
"This not only concerns whether Zhuge Yuan can be revived, but also whether I can protect those I can in this chaotic world."
"With the current situation, I don't even know if the Taoist sects in the capital have undercover agents. I'll follow Dice's plan for now, then secretly accumulate resources and look for opportunities."
"In this capital city, I'm not the only one who bears a grudge against Dice. The Divine Mountain's Ghost Eye was snatched by Doumu, and both the Great Liang royal family and the Supervisory Heaven Office must loathe Dice to the bone."
"But in the current situation, how can I divert the disaster and get them to fight each other to achieve my goal?"

"Boss Red, you also need to be careful. Dice knows your identity. If he decides to go down with the ship and reveals your heart's content and the identity of the Taoist sects to the whole world, that will certainly be quite a spectacle."
"I am not from the Taoist sects!" Li Huowang's voice suddenly rose sharply.
"Ha ha ha! Boss Red, stop joking around."
Li Huowang suddenly stood up, glaring at the illusion of the Taoist sects, and in the next moment, he clenched his fist and fiercely smashed it into the face of that Taoist illusion.
The Taoist illusion sat on the ground, stunned for a good while before realizing what had happened. "Ha ha ha!! I'm alive! I'm alive!"
However, the next second, Li Sui's tentacles stretched out from the side, wrapping around him, but they passed right through.
"Ha ha ha! You're dead again! You've been played by the Taoist." Seeing the disappointment on his face, the monk beside him laughed heartily.
