Chapter 607: Chapter 569: Heavenly Ancestor Church Chapter 607: Chapter 569: Heavenly Ancestor Church Just when Rocky was promoting Tank Armor to the Co-Governing Alliance and the other two city lords, even bringing up Hammerfire, a sudden disturbance erupted at the ball.
This unexpected chaos not only interrupted Rocky’s speech but also made him furrow his brows instantly, then he quickly looked towards the source of the commotion.
The sight left him somewhat dumbfounded, for the instigator of the chaos was none other than… Liliya!
Following his gaze, one could see Athena standing in front of Liliya, usually as stable as Mount Tai and in control of everything. Yet, even Athena’s face now showed panic, while Liliya, whom she was holding back, had a gloomy expression full of anger.
Looking further towards the opposite side, there was a young man kneeling on the ground, covering his groin, crying and sniveling terribly, while the people around him had turned into statues, all staring open-mouthed at the trio of the young man, Liliya, and Athena, unable to utter a word.
Seeing this scene, Rocky was also dumbfounded. He had been focused on enthusiastically promoting Tank Armor just moments ago and hadn’t noticed what was happening with Liliya, but he could tell that it definitely involved Liliya and Athena, and the young man kneeling on the ground.
Therefore, after that, he nodded to the Vice Alliance Hierarch of the Co-Governing Alliance and the other two city lords, and then quickly walked over to Liliya.
Upon reaching her, Rocky first looked at the furious Liliya, then at Athena, who also didn’t look too pleased, and finally at the young man on the ground, which only deepened the frown on his face.
Because the young man, who was kneeling on the ground and crying for his parents, was someone he knew!
This man named Zuluo was the son of the City Lord of Heavenly Ancestor City, here to inspect the Tank Armor representing his father, hence he was also a client brought here by the Apple Tree Corporation.
This was trouble…
Realizing that the man kneeling was Zuluo, Rocky felt a sense of foreboding because although Zuluo was not much of an issue, his father was extraordinary, as he was not only the City Lord of Sky City but also the Sect Hierarch of the Heavenly Ancestor Church!
Since the land had been occupied by demons, forcing people to flee to the skies, many things had changed, such as the concept of nations virtually vanishing, and the religions people once followed had also disappeared. However, as old beliefs vanished, new ones quickly emerged, and the Heavenly Ancestor Church was a new religion born after the era transitioned into the Sky Era.
As the land was occupied by demons, people no longer believed in the original deities. Indeed, the land was lost, seized by demons, but the deities worshipped by people for thousands of years did not appear, so it was reasonable not to believe in those deities. But if not in deities, what should they believe?
Of course, they believed in the sky!
After all, after the land was taken, the sky became the only hope for people to survive, so gradually, people came to view the sky as humanity’s final sanctuary, and the Heavenly Ancestor Church emerged accordingly.
Zuluo’s father, the current Sect Hierarch of the Heavenly Ancestor Church, is known as Tian Rick.
This is precisely where the trouble lies, because although the Heavenly Ancestor Church is not considered a true force, the power of faith is so terrifying that it does not need much explanation. There are many in the Sky Era who follow the Heavenly Ancestor Church, not to mention the ordinary people, but also many City Lords, and even Alliance Hierarchs, so anyone sensible knows that Heavenly Ancestor City and the Heavenly Ancestor Church are absolutely not to be provoked, only second to the Three Great Alliances.
Now, however, the situation has turned sour, as the son of the Sect Hierarch of the Heavenly Ancestor Church is currently kneeling in front of Rocky, crying and screaming for his parents, which is exactly why everyone around is staring agape.
Truthfully, when Rocky recognized Zuluo’s identity, he too was taken aback, because it was clear that Zuluo had been beaten, and not lightly at that. Looking at Liliya’s demeanor and hearing the extent of Zuluo’s screams, it was obvious that Liliya was the one who had struck him.
This made Rocky even more troubled and puzzled because Liliya definitely knew Zuluo’s identity. Even if she did not, Athena next to her should have known, and with their intellect, they would surely understand that such a person should not be provoked casually, which was precisely what Rocky could not understand.
So after glancing at Zuluo, he frowned and turned towards Liliya, only to find that Liliya not only said nothing but glared at him!
This startled Rocky, as Liliya had never treated him this way before, deepening his confusion. But clearly, nothing could be gleaned from Liliya, so he had to turn to Athena.
As he turned to Athena, she proactively came to his side and whispered a few things to him.
Athena’s intelligence allowed her to clarify matters that would take a thousand words for others to explain, in just a few words. Therefore, after she finished speaking, Rocky finally understood what had happened.
It turned out that while Rocky was actively promoting the Armor, Liliya and Athena were also busy chatting with other guests just like the last time, and naturally, they were discussing the luxury goods manufactured in Thunderhawk City.
The luxury goods manufactured in Thunderhawk City not only had their own formal trademarks but also had official brands. Rocky had named the luxury brand after Liliya, called the “Liliya” brand.
However, most of the people who came to Thunderhawk City this time were there for the Tank Armor, with very few bringing their families. Therefore, the two approached Zuluo because among all the guests, only Zuluo had brought his lovers along, not just one but four women dressed as nobles.
And as Rocky had imagined, both Liliya and Athena were very aware of Zuluo’s identity, and initially, Liliya did not even want to interact with such a person.
Firstly, because his identity was too sensitive, it was not good to be in contact, and secondly, Liliya disapproved of his demeanor of embracing women on each arm. Having a few lovers was one thing, bringing them to a ball was another, but bringing four lovers to a ball at once was, in Liliya’s view, simply disgraceful. However, Athena thought otherwise; she had encountered many such people before and knew how to handle them. Moreover, for a playboy like Zuluo, once he took a liking to the luxury goods manufactured by Rocky, he would spend money like running water.
Under these circumstances, the two approached Zuluo.
Initially, everything went well, just as Athena said, she indeed knew how to handle someone like Zuluo, but after chatting for a while, things started to feel a bit off.
As they conversed with the two beauties, Liliya and Athena, Zuluo became increasingly happy and then started to make inappropriate advances towards them!
