When the Jade Emperor suddenly asked about the "organization of the supervisory team", cold sweat broke out on Li Changgeng's back: the positions of the 39 people including the Fourth Level Gongcao and the Protector Jialan had already become a chessboard for the secret battle between Heaven and Lingshan.
