The Eternal Night Church could be considered to be lacking in talent now. The high-level believers that they had spent more than ten years nurturing had basically all died at Zou Bai’s hands. The believers they had absorbed now could not compare at all.
In fact, for the sake of the church’s safety, many things could only be done by the bishop himself. He no longer had the power he had in the past.
This made the bishop want to hack Zou Bai to death every time he thought of him.
Fortunately, he had heard that Zou Bai had been revolving around Jiang An recently. He should still have time to carry out his plan.
Little did he know that Zou Bai had long seen through his scheme. The appearance of the Church in China had aroused his full vigilance. Sending people to Lin City was just a test. He did not expect to find anything.
Unexpectedly, there was a riot overseas the next day. Many people rushed into the Zou family’s territory and fired randomly, saying that it was for revenge.
The Zou Family had found the badge of the Church of Eternal Night on their corpses. Everything happened too coincidentally. Zou Bai immediately understood what was going on. They were definitely trying to divert his attention.
He was sure that the people from the church were in Lin City and were infiltrating the aristocratic families there.
Zou Bai didn’t make a move immediately. After all, the matter hadn’t blown up yet. If he made a move in advance, the other aristocratic families would definitely jump out and say that he was making a mountain out of a molehill. They might even say that he wanted to interfere in politics. For the sake of the Zou family’s stability, he had to wait.
Moreover, he was really busy now. In order to announce the children’s background before the wedding, he had to finish filming the television drama as soon as possible.
Jiang Huai practically stayed in the production team. He wore a hat and held a loudspeaker as he commanded everywhere. He treated himself as three people and lost a lot of weight from exhaustion.
Under everyone’s hard work, the filming of the television drama progressed by leaps and bounds. In addition, the actors who were chosen were all outstanding in acting. Everyone worked together and actually finished filming in half a month.
On the final day of filming, Jiang Huai was so excited that he cried. The entire production team did not expect him to have such a reaction and rushed to comfort him.
After the filming ended, it would be handed over to post-production editing and sent to Central TV for review. Only then would they be qualified to broadcast it.
With the Jiang family around, this process wouldn’t take too much time. All they had to do was wait.
Jiang An and Zou Bai, who were relaxed, could finally go stay at home. The two children had not seen them for a long time. They followed behind their parents like bugs and were unwilling to leave even when they were sleeping.
Jiang An also knew that she hadn’t been able to take care of them, so the family of four simply lay on the same bed. Anyway, the bed was big enough.
Two days later, Mo Shen came to visit again. He seemed to have lost a lot of weight, but he was in good spirits. As soon as he entered, he felt sorry that he could not attend the engagement ceremony.
“Brother Mo Shen, you don’t have to say that. It’s just an engagement. It’s not that grand. You’re not in good health, so don’t take the risk. Rest well,” Jiang An said as she got him a blanket.
Mo Shen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “It’s summer now. Why are you bringing me a blanket?”
Zou Bai took the blanket and covered him with it. “The air conditioner is on in the house. You’d better be careful.”
Mo Shen could only accept the couple’s actions. Who asked him to say that he was sick some time ago?
“I’m here to tell Zou Bai something. Recently, someone has been trying to sneak into the Medicine Valley over at the Mo Family. After they were caught, they kept talking about some Church. I don’t know what they mean, so I want you to help investigate,” Mo Shen said.
Everyone knew that the Listening Wind Pavilion of the Zou Family was the best at gathering information. There was nothing they did not know.
Zou Bai immediately understood what was going on. He didn’t expect the Church of Eternal Night to be so arrogant. They provoked the Mo Family before they could even gain a foothold in China. Did they think that their family was easy to bully?
The Mo family rarely appeared in front of people, but they were the closest to the government among all the aristocratic families. They had their family’s medical skills and did not have to worry about them falling. They had tried to kick an iron plate.
Zou Bai told Mo Shen about the Church of Eternal Night and what they had been doing during this period of time.
Mo Shen slammed the table and said, “Do they think that the Mo Family are all idiots? How dare they target our family?”
Zou Bai comforted him. “They were indeed glorious in the past. If I hadn’t killed most of the high-level believers, I’m afraid they would have already appeared in the open.”
“I think it’s a cult. If it could really be put out in the open, why would it develop so sneakily? It even sneaked into our medicine valley. How shameless.” Mo Shen was rarely angry.
At this moment, Jiang An smiled. “They’re giving us a chance by doing this. Why don’t we beat them at their own game?”
“You want me to cooperate with Mo Shen?” Zou Bai asked.
Jiang An nodded. “The Church of Eternal Night thinks that they have everything under control, so let them continue to think that way. By the time they realize that something is wrong, it will be too late.”
