Chapter 251: The Spirit of Mortals, Floating Like Immortals

The residence of the A Voiceless, Silent Sect in the Southern Plains Kingdom frequently resembles treasure pagoda-like palaces, towering and grand, certainly the tallest structures in the entire city.

In the past, this place was also considered a bustling sanctuary where mortals came daily to offer incense, praying for the Sect's protection.

But this time was different.

At the entrance of the grand hall, a good number of mortals gathered there. Though mostly malnourished with bony figures, when gathered together, they still looked intimidating.

"I know there is grain here, let us in!"

"I demand to see an Immortal, to see an Immortal! You people, taking advantage of the absence of the Immortals, hoarding grain for yourselves, you will face retribution!!"

Opposing them were a group of soldier guards who had also formed a human wall, their shining weapons blocking the congregated civilians.
