Chapter 342: First Step

"How is this possible?!"
Looking at the boy, and sensing that pure light coming from him, the Father shouted as he looked on in disbelief.
The light that the boy gave off was incredibly holy, and it gave off an extremely pure feeling.
It was just that this light was the exact same as the light from the statue.
What did this mean?
"Impossible… Impossible…"
In that moment, the Father felt that he was hallucinating, and he instinctively mumbled as he rubbed his eyes.
No matter what he did, that light was still there, making him want to worship him.
As if he noticed his gaze, the boy slowly raised his head and looked at him.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out in his mind, and as the Father watched on, the boy's face began to change.
Under the light, some strange changes appeared, and his face began to go through changes.
His handsome face became even more exquisite and charming, causing anyone who looked at him to feel suffocated.
As the Father watched on, the boy's appearance seemed to become exactly the same as the one in his dream.
What was going on?
"This… This is impossible…"
Standing there, he muttered to himself, unable to believe his eyes.
"Father…" the boy's voice sounded out.
Standing there, the boy looked at the Father in confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"
As he spoke, everything returned to normal.
In the Father's eyes, all abnormalities disappeared and the light from the boy's body was also gone.
Only then did the middle-aged Father come back to his senses. Looking at the boy, he forced a slight smile, "I-It's nothing… I just thought I saw something."
He lowered his head as if he did not dare to look at the boy's face for it would be blasphemy.
Following this, he thought for a moment before hurriedly saying, "It's getting late, I should go back and rest. Make sure you get some rest too."
After saying this, he hurriedly left as if he was running away.
Watching the middle-aged Father leave, Chen Heng shook his head and smiled.
Following this, only Chen Heng was left behind in the church.
Standing there, he thought for a moment before continuing with his duties.
He cleaned the surroundings and maintained the candles, doing what a normal assistant would do.
However, as he worked, he thought to himself.
"Looks like it was quite successful…"
Everything that had happened was part of his plan, which was a test he was doing.
It seemed that the outcome of the test was quite good.
From how things seemed, the Father accepted the change of the Holy Mother's image.
In fact, for people like the middle-aged Father, he could make up the gaps through the records he had read.
This saved some time and effort for Chen Heng.
Apart from this, after their image of the Holy Mother changed, their faith energy would no longer gather on the statue but instead directly go to Chen Heng.
Of course, rather than a manifestation of the Holy Mother, it was more appropriate to say that he was the manifestation of a Holy Son.
"This seems quite good…" Chen Heng smiled, "Since there were no problems with the first step, it's time to begin with the second step."
From how Chen Heng saw it, his first step was just to test the reactions of the Holy Mother's believers.
If the test went well, his next step would be to do miracles and change the perceptions of the believers, moving their faith from the Holy Mother to the Holy Son.
Chen Heng already had some ideas for how to do this.
First, he would do miracles and fashion himself as a manifestation of the Holy Mother; if possible, he would like his title to be the Holy Son.
This was quite easy.
He would just have to do some marketing and add some things to the traditional Holy Mother legend.
He would first establish the Holy Son before gradually moving people's faith from the Holy Mother to the Holy Son.
After doing this, his plan to steal faith energy would be complete.
Moreover, during this process, he would not have to sacrifice much, nor would he have to start a holy war.
This was quite a good outcome for Chen Heng.
Of course, even though he had a plan, how things would go was still to be seen.
Only by patiently waiting could he see the outcome.
Time gradually passed.
In the following period of time, Chen Heng continued about his life as usual. He was either at school or helping out at a church.
As for the middle-aged Father, after that night, he no longer had such dreams.
However, that night left a deep impression in his heart, and he could not forget about it.
After that night, Chen Heng's status in the church went through some changes.
Chen Heng still went about his duties as normal, but others at the church could see clear changes.
The most evident change was the middle-aged Father's attitude.
In the past, he greatly appreciated this devoted believer and took good care of him.
However, after that night, the middle-aged Father began to show great respect to Chen Heng and even began to consult him on matters related to the church.
It seemed like he greatly valued Chen Heng.
This was something that the others easily sensed.
However, they were not too surprised about this.
Just the way Chen Heng acted made everyone like him a lot.
Even though he was quite young, he was very diligent and easy to get along with. Moreover, given his handsome looks and good personality, anyone would easily feel goodwill towards him.
As such, no one thought too much about this.
Soon, it had been another week.
"Is it here?"
On that day, a car arrived outside the church.
After getting out of the car, Yang Cheng looked at the church, "So it was here. What a difficult place to find."
"Difficult to find, my ass!"
Next to him, a young man dressed in black robes felt quite speechless, "If it wasn't for you being directionally-challenged, why would it have taken so long to find? This church is at the center of the city, and yet you were still able to get lost?"
"Can you really blame me?"
Hearing the young man's words, Yang Cheng looked quite awkward and said, "It was the navigation app's fault…for some reason, it always took me off-route."
"Of course it took us off-route…" the young man sighed, "The address he gave us was Changyuan Third Church, but you directed us to the Tianyuan Third Church… It would have been amazing if we could find it."
"Alright, alright."
Yang Cheng looked even more awkward as he hurriedly changed the topic, "Let's go and find him."
Hearing this, the young man did not speak any more.
He turned and sighed before saying, "Xiao Lan, you can come out."
Looking behind and looking at the small figure, his expression softened as he spoke.
