The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 865 Completely Cut Off!

Xuanyuan Yao's gaze turned towards the direction of the Death Mountain, his eyes filled with unyielding sorrow.

The miracles he possessed were achieved through numerous methods, including the sacrifice of many people, to separate him from the spirit of the Demon-Locking Tower.

If it weren't for the concern that being too close to the spirit of the Demon-Sealing Tower would affect the miracle.

Now, he even wants to go there himself and skin all the troublemakers alive.

He had never seen anyone as troublesome as Yun Ran, yet she lived such a long life.

It's not that no one has ever discovered what they've been doing before, but all of them have never returned.

To this day, Xuanyuan Yao still hasn't figured out how Yun Ran, a perfectly respectable heiress from a wealthy family, suddenly rose to prominence.

Furthermore, they couldn't find out the background of Qingfeng Temple, which was behind Yunran.

Could it be that they are descendants of other branches of the Wu tribe? Is that why they are able to fight on par with them?

But no matter what Xuanyuan Yao thinks, what is destined to happen will not change because of his will.

The various key routes leading to the Death Mountain and the Five Emperors Mountain had long been guarded by Gu Yuan's men.

Previously, members of the Xuanmen sect could come and go as they pleased, but now, no one from any Xuanmen faction can enter or leave this area.

The announcements previously issued by the Special Administration Bureau had some impact, but only on the decision-making level.

The impact on those who work below them, as well as on the direct subordinates trained by Xie Xuzhi and his team, is negligible.

Anyway, as long as the Xie family doesn't fall, all the subsidies that are due will be given, and the workers will just keep their heads down and do their jobs without caring about the power struggles above.

The black-robed figures inside the Death Mountain are almost all dead, while those outside who wanted to help are now stranded on the way.

For so many years, it has been the man in black robes who has been manipulating everyone else, even secretly cutting off the resources and livelihoods of many people.

Now, they are experiencing this helplessness themselves.

Several highly respected masters, after being "persuaded to return," had dark and brooding eyes.

"How come I never knew before that those people from the Special Administration Bureau were so cunning? To keep an eye on us, they shut out everyone from the entire Xuanmen sect!"

"Or, we could report their unauthorized blockade of this important road to the Xuanmen Association."

Their refusal to obey the orders of the Special Administration Bureau's higher-ups can be attributed to internal conflicts.

But now, they are clearly trying to cut off the training of the rest of the Xuanmen sect. That's incredibly selfish!

When bad people wear masks for too long and get used to saying too many high-sounding words, they probably start to believe that they are truly virtuous and respected.

The moment they open their mouths, they launch into a barrage of accusations and stand on some moral high ground, completely oblivious to their own true nature.

The leader of the group sighed and shook his head.

"It's no use. I already asked beforehand, and quite a few Xuanmen forces have benefited from the Five Emperors Mountain area."

Even the people from Tiandao Village were there, along with many reclusive old monsters.

The Special Administration blocked the main roads here, which allowed those people to legitimately divide up the resources.

Ultimately, the benefits go to them, while the reputation for dominance belongs to the Special Administration Bureau.

Do you really think the members of the Xuanmen Association would be so selfless as to stand up and criticize the Special Administration Bureau for being domineering and offending other forces?

The others fell silent upon hearing this.

They navigate between two different identities, possessing a deep understanding of the complexities and greed of human nature.

If only one person's interests are involved, then someone will definitely stand up to 'uphold justice'. But if some people have benefited, and others want to interfere, then that's cutting off their source of income.

Ultimately, the people in the Xuanmen Association are selected from within various Xuanmen forces, and they are bound to protect the interests of their own people.

After exchanging bewildered glances, one of them finally spoke with lingering fear: "What do we do now? What if we can't even sneak in, and the master finds out..."

They had personally witnessed the people being dealt with by their lord.

A perfectly healthy person with a strong voice can turn into an old, dried-up corpse in the blink of an eye.

In particular, that person's skills were no less than theirs, and he was considered to be of a high status among the black-robed men.

But it just vanished so easily.

You should know that these people are all top-notch in terms of ability, methods, and cunning.

Therefore, their public identities are all those of highly skilled individuals, and ordinary methods are completely useless against them.

But that person died so hastily, so ridiculously.

The thought of what would happen if their mission failed made everyone present turn pale.

"Activate the hidden agents at Wuhuang Mountain. I refuse to believe that Gu Yuan can actually find all of them!"

“Alright, the Lord said that we must find a way to bypass the inspection here at all costs. We can’t put all our hopes on those undercover agents.”

After agreeing on the plan, these people went their separate ways to get busy.

Meanwhile, Gu Yuan was stationed at Wuhuang Mountain, overseeing the affairs of all parties.

Looking at the documents and several computers in front of me, I felt a jolt in my head.

Now, he really misses his boss.

I don't know how the boss managed to handle the entire Special Administration Bureau's affairs so easily in the past, and still had so much time to keep an eye on the Xie family's affairs.

Could it be that the eldest child's left and right hemispheres can handle different things simultaneously?

After sighing a few times, Gu Yuan could only resign himself to dealing with these matters.

He made up his mind that once this matter was over, he would apply for a six-month break to rejuvenate the brain cells he had lost.

Just then, there was a rapid knocking at the door.

Gu Yuan raised his hand to put away the confidential document he had just received before speaking, "Come in."

His confidant's face was covered in large beads of sweat, showing how rushed he was.

"Director Gu, we finally have results after you asked us to keep an eye on those essential routes. The brothers over there have sent word back."

Several cars that came from Wuhuang Mountain passed by, seemingly a normal occurrence, but the detection equipment showed that they were carrying Xuanmen artifacts.

Thinking that their previous waiting had not been in vain, the confidant finally felt a sense of relief after all the hardships.

Some time ago, they put in a lot of effort to screen everyone here.

They thought the screening was complete, but Director Gu still had people keep an eye on those few essential routes.

This order, given only as a precaution, actually unearthed even those who had been hiding very well.

"Investigate further, and make sure to completely cut off all the manpower and resources of the man in black robes!"
