Dong Don City.

Zou Xiang and the other higher-ups looked curiously at Xiang Zizhen, who had gathered them. Xiang Zizhen looked around at everyone. After seeing that everyone was here, he looked at Xiao Shi.

Xiao Shi nodded. He continued to be Xiang Zizhen’s mouth and spoke to everyone. “I summoned you here this time because 1 have good news to tell you. That would be Priest Xiang preparing to build a holy statue on the East Island!”

Zou Xiang and the others were all shocked. Zou Xiang frowned immediately and said in a deep voice, “That’s not appropriate.” It was not that he had not thought that Xiang Zizhen would replace Rong Sufei and build a new statue.

As long as Xiang Zizhen wanted to control the East Island, he would definitely build his statue there. However, the construction of the statue required an incomparably huge amount of resources. It also took an extremely long time to establish. Most importantly, this kind of statue could only exist in one area.

Which meant, if Xiang Zizhen wanted to build a statue, he had to destroy Rong Sufei’s statue first. Although Zou Xiang knew that this would happen sooner or later, he did not expect the other party to actually want to destroy Rong Sufei’s statue so quickly.

This matter was not only related to his own interests. It would have a huge impact on all the martial artists on the East Island. Zou Xiang was not the only one who disagreed. Most of the martial artists on the East Island would not agree.

If Xiang Zizhen insisted, it would definitely cause a riot on the East Island. Even though Xiang Zizhen had given them a generous greeting gift previously, it was not enough to support him in doing this.

Regarding Zou Xiang’s reaction, be it Xiang Zizhen or Xiao Shi, they had long expected this.

“City Lord Zou must have heard wrongly, right? What I’m talking about is a holy statue, not a statue.” Xiao Shi emphasized calmly.

“Holy… Holy Statue?” Zou Xiang was stunned. When he heard Xiao Shi’s words just now, he indeed subconsciously thought that it was a statue. Now that Xiao Shi had emphasized it, he realized what the other party wanted to build was a holy statue, not a statue.

The so-called holy statue was the statue of a Sage.

Usually, only after completing the refinement of an area and becoming a Sage would the statue built in the area transform into a holy statue. For example, if Rong Sufei could successfully refine the Nandou Domain and become a Sage of the Nandou Domain, the statue he built would transform into a holy statue.

The difference between a holy statue and a statue was huge. The two were completely incomparable. However, what Zou Xiang could not understand was how Xiang Zizhen was going to establish the holy statue.

It had to be known that only Sages could build holy statues. Moreover, every Sage could only build one holy statue. Xiang Zizhen had yet to become a Sage. Under normal circumstances, it was definitely impossible to establish a holy statue. This was also the main reason why Zou Xiang subconsciously thought that what Xiao Shi said was a statue and did not associate it with the holy statue.

“That’s right, a holy statue.” Xiao Shi looked at the group of confused people led by Zou Xiang. He explained seriously. “Currently, Priest Xiang has a remnant statue of a Sage. Next, we plan to build this remnant statue on the east island. 1 don’t think anyone will object, right?”

The moment Xiao Shi finished speaking, the entire hall fell into a dead silence.

Everyone widened their eyes as if they had seen a ghost. They all realized the holy statue in Xiang Zizhen’s hand was the holy statue of the Sages who had fallen in the past. Most of these statues were incomplete. Moreover, because these Sages were all dead, their power and effects were much inferior to the complete holy statue.

But even so, this was also a holy statue! It was far from what ordinary statues could compare to. Especially if the holy statue in Xiang Zizhen’s hand came from a distant era, perhaps it would even have some special effects that were not available in the current era.

However, such statues were extremely rare. It was often only possible to encounter it in some hidden ruins. Zou Xiang and the others did not expect Xiang Zizhen to have such a rare remnant statue of a Sage.

However, when they thought of Xiang Zizhen’s deeds, they all realized that the remnant statue of a Sage in the other party’s hand was very likely to have originated from the demigod land that sealed the Eye of the Emperor Judgment. As a demigod’s land, it wasn’t strange for there to be a remnant statue of a Sage inside.

Thinking of this, the way they looked at Xiang Zizhen immediately became fanatical. If Xiang Zizhen could build a remnant statue of a Sage here, this was an indescribably monstrous good fortune to the entire East Island. The benefits that the holy statue could bring them were definitely not comparable to Rong Sufei’s statue.

No one objected anymore. Even Zou Xiang, who had always been watching, found out that Xiang Zizhen actually had such a remnant statue of a Sage, he immediately decided to change his stance. From now on, he will fully support Xiang Zizhen.

“Then, City Lord Zou, please announce that we will build a holy statue on the East Island in three days!” Xiao Shi said.

“Understood!” Zou Xiang nodded excitedly.

They were not the only ones excited. Xiang Zizhen, who had a calm expression on his face, seemed to be in control of everything. But the excitement in his heart was not inferior to Zou Xiang and the others.

Previously, he had been worried that he would not be able to solve the problem of the statue..
