Chapter 3456: Untitled
Three days later, in Heavenly Essence City.
It was the largest city within five hundred square kilometers.
It was also one of the most important strongholds of the Temple of Fist in the north.
It was said that ten thousand years ago, the Fist God had once comprehended an invincible fist technique here. Therefore, it was the “Holy Land” of the Iron Fist Dao.
Gus and Grey looked at the magnificent city wall from the other side of the highway outside of the city in a trance.
Ever since Gus slaughtered the hunting team with the help of the devils three days ago and cut off their trail, there had been no sign of the hunting team behind them.
Even so, the torrential rain, the difficult mountain roads, and Grey’s high fever and heavy wounds still caused them a lot of trouble.
Thankfully, with the help of the devils, they made it to this place safely.

Now that Grey’s fever was gone and her wounds had recovered, she could finally take a breath.
Grey could not remember what had happened that day clearly. Gus did not know how to explain it to his sister, either. He could only blame the devil.
Lu Qingchen, on the other hand, told Grey with a smile that he did not intend to hide anything and would tell her everything he knew as long as it was safe.
Grey knew that the devil was extremely dangerous. It was obvious from the fact that it could help Gus defeat the experts of Red Gold Town, including his uncle Lei Lie, that he would not be able to run away if it really wanted to murder the two of them.
Since it was not willing to tell the truth, Grey did not have the ability to expose it.
Therefore, Grey could only suppress her curiosity and come to Qianyuan City to look for her father’s old friend, a disciple of the ‘Mechanical and Steam Church’.
Speaking of which, this was the first time the two siblings had come to Heavenly Essence City.
Their hometown, Red Gold Town, was a prosperous place with a lot of boxing clubs. The importance of their hometown was evident when the Temple of Fist established a branch in Red Gold Town.
But compared to the big cities in the north such as Heavenly Essence City, it was nothing.
It was evident from the giant statue of the Fist God that was hundreds of meters tall and visible dozens of kilometers away outside the gate of the city.
It was said that the statue had taken millions of tons of rocks to build, which was far beyond the technology level of the Fist God’s World. It was truly a miracle.
The statue depicted the Fist God meditating and training with one hand pointing at the sky and the other pointing at his enemy. There was indeed an air of invincibility about him.
Although it was a frozen statue, the Fist God was not wearing a shirt and only had a cloth covering his lower body, but every muscle on his body was revealed to the world.
The muscles carved out of the rocks, on the other hand, had the texture of surging tides. They were flowing all the time and gave the feeling that they were alive.
It was said that the super-large statue had been personally carved by the Fist God ten thousand years ago.
It was said that the Fist God blew the statue away with his bare fists without any tools.
Every line and crevice on the statue contained the will of the Fist God.
As long as one’s mind was pure enough and one’s belief was sincere enough, one would be able to comprehend the profound truths of martial arts by watching it cultivate.
It was especially so when the rising sun was in the sky and the sunlight was shining on the statue. Glamorous shadows and shadows were reflected by the statue. When the shadows and shadows were shaking, one would be able to change into a set of powerful fist techniques. Whoever could comprehend these fist techniques would instantly break through and reach the peak.
Therefore, for thousands of years, countless believers had been worshipping the giant statue.
There were also countless martial arts maniacs who spent their entire lives around the statue of the Fist God, studying martial arts, sparring with each other, and comprehending the ultimate mysteries. Even if they were crazy like devils, they never got tired of it.
Before their father died, the two siblings had been loyal believers of the Fist God. Their biggest wish in life was to visit the statue of the famous Fist God in Heavenly Essence City.
At that time, Gus had even fantasized that he could be enlightened by the ultimate mysteries from the statue of the Fist God and turn from ‘waste’ into ‘genius’.
Today, his wish had come true, but all he wanted to do was sneer and look at the kneeling and meditating believers below the statue. He felt that they were pitiful, ridiculous, pathetic, lamentable, and hateful.
Gus could not help but wonder how interesting it would be if he took out the Vulcan Machine Gun that the devil had given him and shot it at the head of the statue of the super-large Fist God. How would the devoted believers below the statue react?
Of course, that was just his imagination.
Lu Qingchen had warned them that even devils were not omnipotent. Before they reached the weakest part of the world of the Fist God, they should be prudent and not be too arrogant.
Besides, Qianyuan City had been on high alert over the past few days, too.
Firstly, the cracks in the sky were not only visible to Red Gold Town but also to the residents of Heavenly Essence City.
For a moment, everybody was anxious, believing that it was a sign of the decline of the world and the invasion of evilness.
The demons and devils took the opportunity to stir up trouble and fish in troubled waters.
Secondly, after Gus and Grey marched out of Red Gold Town, Gus had slain Lei Lie’s pursuers with the help of the devils. The incident was too influential to be kept a secret. It had spread to hundreds of kilometers nearby.
After all, Red Gold Town was out hunting the two siblings.
Not only were their efforts in vain, they even brought back dozens of corpses of their own people. As for the unlucky bastards who fell off the cliff and were smashed into pieces, there were even more of them.
The truth was right in front of his eyes. This time, the Fist God did not bless his believers.
Or rather, there was a more terrifying possibility—the Fist God had blessed his believers, but he was still no match for the devil.
Even the spokesperson of the Fist God in the human world, Lei Lie, the high priest of the Fist God Hall, was so frustrated that he had to retreat in defeat. He did not even return to Red Gold Town and simply went to the Fist God Hall in Heavenly Essence City to confess and ask for the harshest punishment.
The name of the ‘devil siblings’ spread like wildfire. All the loyal and kind people in the five hundred square kilometers nearby were greatly shocked. They were sighing and panicking.
The devils, on the other hand, were even more arrogant. They did not even bother to conceal their existence. They jumped out from various dark corners and stirred up trouble.
With the current situation, it was no wonder that the soldiers outside of Qianyuan City were all trembling in fear.
However careful they were, something went wrong. When Gus and Grey walked to the gate of the city, they saw that a guy in a cloak suddenly took out a stack of brown, colorful toilet paper from his spacious robe and threw it into the air, while he shouted, “The old gods are dead. A new one is standing. Long live the God of Steam!”
