In an abandoned, unfinished building, Fan Shixing held the stolen phone and only then learned about the recent happenings in the Thirteenth District.

He also gradually understood why the people from Evolution Divine Teachings had let him go.

It turned out that he was merely a bait to lure out the Conservative Faction and divert the Supreme Court's attention.

Unfortunately...

They were gravely mistaken!

For his admiration for the Conservative Faction was so deep that even death couldn't make him an obstacle to their return!

For this reason, he attempted to leave the Thirteenth District.

However, as he approached the city gate, he noticed many Security Bureau officers and other powerful factions examining those entering and leaving.

With his power, crossing the city wall wasn't difficult.

The problem lay in his inability, unlike Apostle Level individuals, to easily avoid various surveillance devices.

Thus.

Fan Shixing could only find a place to hide.

Of course, he wasn't one to sit and wait for death. After some careful thought, he immediately used the phone to register accounts on major online platforms and published a clarification article.

"Hello, everyone, I am Fan Shixing.

Regarding the rumors of my long-term contact with the Evolution Divine Teaching Conservative Faction, I think there's a need for clarification.

Indeed.

As seen in some video footage, I do recognize greatly the ideals of the Conservative Faction, and have always admired the great organization that once saved the human world.

But, it does not mean I have had long-term contact with the Conservative Faction.

On the contrary, if I had truly joined that great organization, perhaps I would have already left the Thirteenth District. After all, I haven't deluded myself into thinking my Overlord Level power could be of any use to the organization in this situation.

Additionally, the Evolution Divine Teachings can prove I have never joined that organization.

During this period, I was detained and interrogated by the Evolution Divine Teachings, and now being released by them, the implication is self-evident.

Lastly, I want to say one thing.

The Radical Faction of the Evolution Divine Teachings... you are so hopelessly naive, thinking that by knocking me out and sending me away from your stronghold, I wouldn't know its location?

You might think I'm talking nonsense.

No worries, I'll first give a rough location—East Marsh District.

For the exact location, I'll announce it when I'm in a bad mood."

The article caused an uproar in the Thirteenth District instantly.

Someone actually claimed to know the exact location of the Evolution Divine Teachings' stronghold.

Is it true or false...

One must know, now is the time of a grand purge by the Supreme Court; revealing oneself now is like putting oneself on the spotlight.

And Fan Shixing knew well, whether he spoke or not, he was already in the vortex.

Since that's the case, there's nothing to be afraid of. Isn't it the plan of the Evolution Divine Teachings to use me to divert the Supreme Court's attention? I'll just act contrary to your expectations and drag you all into the mess!

Moreover, his actions held a deeper meaning.

It was to ensure that the people he cared about won't face any life-threatening dangers.

Sure enough.

Fan Shixing's father immediately understood his son's intentions upon seeing the article, decisively having others leave the Thirteenth District first, while he stayed behind to handle the situation.

Because, on the surface.

Their relationship was the most conspicuous.

"Xiaoyan, this time you can't make a fuss, you must safely lead everyone out of the Inner City!"

"Uncle Fan, there must be another way, or, should we cooperate with the people from the Supreme Court?" Xiaoyan hurriedly said.

Uncle Fan knew his son all too well, calmly stating, "What if Xiaoxing doesn't actually know the true location of the Evolution Divine Teachings' stronghold?"

At those words.

Xiaoyan was rendered speechless.

The first to react was the City Lord's Mansion.

The three Shen sisters, upon reading the last sentence, realized things were bad and quickly had all information about Fan Shixing erased, mobilizing all forces to find Fan Shixing and his father.

Originally, they intended to watch as the Supreme Court found Fan Shixing and unearthed the Conservative Faction hidden in the Thirteenth District.

But now, they couldn't allow such a thing to happen.

Because.

Should the Supreme Court find Fan Shixing, it would equate to finding the Evolution Divine Teachings' stronghold, by which time, a battle would be inevitable.

At this moment, chaos also reigned in the underground base of the Evolution Divine Teachings.

"Peng Ai, how exactly are you handling things!"

"How did this guy find out our specific location!"

Ruan Maoshan was utterly furious, his eyes filled with rage, with uncontrollable killing intent roaring through the entire base like floodwater.

Peng Ai, terrified, lay crouched on the ground without daring to lift his head, stammered in defense, "I... I followed the usual method, knocking him out before sending him away. Perhaps he just guessed it randomly?"

What he dared not say was.

He hurriedly brought him to the nearest Huabao District out of fear of being detected by the Supreme Court's people at that time.

Ruan Maoshan kicked Peng Ai over, his shout reverberating aground: "With so many areas in the Thirteenth District, he randomly guesses and hits East Marsh District; do you think I am a fool!?"

At this moment.

All the Non-human Aliens looked malevolently at Peng Ai, never expecting such a big blunder at this critical moment.

Peng Ai, unable to justify himself, his eyes turned vicious: "Priest, I will go and silence him!"

"Even if it means death, the real location of the stronghold must not be leaked!"

Among them, many knew the seriousness of the situation, realizing the need for strong measures; hence, several people who had good relations with Peng Ai requested to act together, unwilling to sit back and wait for doom.

Despite Ruan Maoshan's wish for everyone aware of the stronghold's location to remain silent, under prevailing circumstances, he could only attempt a reckless solution.

"You must handle him before the Supreme Court finds him!"

"Otherwise, you know the consequences!"

"Understood!"

...

During this time, Fan Shixing was looking at the phone, reviewing a string of private messages.

Among them, were inquiries from people he knew, along with many threats and collaboration proposals.

But he did not respond to any of them.

He knew well that now all his accounts were virtually under surveillance.

The relationship between the City Lord's Mansion and the Evolution Divine Teachings was not lost on him.

However.

There was one particularly intriguing private message that caught his attention.

The content was minimal, containing just one sentence—I want to know the real location of the Evolution Divine Teachings' stronghold.

He immediately realized it was either sent by someone from the Supreme Court or... the Conservative Faction!

But it seemed of little matter since he'd only deduced a general area and didn't know the specific location; otherwise, he would have announced it right away.

Beep beep.

Another message came.

From the same account: "What can I help you with, anything is possible."

In that instant.

Fan Shixing realized this was surely sent by the Conservative Faction.

Because the Supreme Court would definitely attach a condition—only if the specific location of the Evolution Divine Teachings' stronghold was revealed.

Suddenly, Fan Shixing felt warmth amidst a world of foes, knowing someone still willing to extend a helping hand.

Then.

With an excited heart, he slipped out, stole another phone, and sent a message to that account.

"I am honored, but it's unnecessary."

Soon.

The other side sent another message: "Whether it's necessary, is for me to decide."

The user of this account was Su Qi, who, through simple interaction, confirmed the other party to indeed be a follower of the Conservative Faction.

"Heh, if I truly were the Conservative Faction, I might deliberate carefully, unable to decide."

"But, I am merely a pretender..."

This person, to him, wasn't particularly essential.

But for this performance, seemed to be quite a good prop.
