After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 743: White Python Devours the Evil, Xuan Jing's Poisonous Scheme! [Two Chapters in One]

A few minutes later, the door of the main house was closed by Qiangba.

The disciples in the yard looked back, and although they were confused, no one dared to investigate.

Although Qiangba may not be older than these people, he is of higher seniority and stronger than them. In the Divine Fire Sect, hierarchy is taken very seriously.

……

In the room.

Chen Yang sat on the rattan chair, looking at Qiangba in front of him, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It is indeed difficult to use pupil techniques on people from the secret sect.

Fortunately, he knew a little about acupuncture. Xue Chonghua's positive and negative acupuncture method had many magical uses. After three needles, Qiangba gave up resistance.

At this time, three silver needles were still inserted straight into Qiangba's head, but he seemed to feel nothing and just looked at Chen Yang respectfully.

Sangjie and others might come back at any time, so Chen Yang didn't say any more nonsense and went straight to the point.

"Tell me about your business with the Gu God Cult. When, where, how, and with whom are you going to trade?"

After saying that, Chen Yang's eyes fell on Qiangba, waiting for his answer.

This person is Sangjie's disciple and has a very high status. There is no reason why he doesn't know the inside story.

Upon hearing this, Qiangba immediately said, "Master has entrusted this matter to Junior Brother Gongbu to handle. I have not asked about it. However, I heard from Gongbu that the Gu God Cult has already contacted him, and the transaction will probably take place near Dawa Mountain in the next two days..."

As expected, they came to Dawa Mountain with great enthusiasm this time. On the surface, they were helping Xuan Jing and the others deal with Master You, but secretly they wanted to fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity to contact the Gu God Cult.

Dawa Mountain is located at the junction of Luoshan and Ya City. If you walk a distance to the north, you will reach the territory of Ya City.

Qiangba was not very clear about the specific transaction situation. After all, he was injured in the past few days and all his energy was focused on recovery.

But he knew that the transaction should take place in these two days. The Gu God Cult had sent a new contact person, and Qiangba didn't know his specific identity.

The transaction took place probably in Ya City. A few miles north of Tongjiaao, there was a place called Moon Bay. Qiangba had heard Gongbu talk about it, so it was probably there that the transaction took place.

At that time, Gongbu will deliver the things, and the people of Gushen Cult will take the things away, leaving behind the things that their Shenhuo Sect needs. The money will be paid on one hand and the goods will be delivered on the other.

As for how the arrangements will be made and whether Sangjie will be there in person, Qiangba doesn't know.

After listening to him, Chen Yang lowered his head in thought.

Therefore, the key still lies in Gongbu.

However, since Gongbu and Sangjie are together, Chen Yang might not find an opportunity to take action.

Moon Bay?

Chen Yang took a deep breath and considered it carefully, and decided that he didn't necessarily have to attack Gongbu.

Now that we know he is in charge of the transaction, we just need to find a way to keep a close eye on him.

Then we will see who he is trading with and directly snatch the goods from the people of the Gu Shen Cult.

Thinking of this, Chen Yang's eyes fell on Qiangba again, "Where are these Dzi beads now?"

Chen Yang had previously learned from Badar that there were quite a few Dzi beads in this batch, at least hundreds of them.

It might not be very convenient to carry so many Dzi beads with you.

Qiangba said, "There are 508 Dzi beads in this batch, which are carried by Master. Master has a prayer wheel in his hand, which has a small storage space..."

Storage space is not uncommon.

There is space for storage in the Tiger Seal. There must be such storage treasures in this world.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang took a deep breath.

It is even more unrealistic to want to snatch things from Sangjie. It would be more cost-effective to wait until their transaction is completed and then snatch things directly from the Gu Shen Cult.

……

Chen Yang asked some more details, including the situation of the Divine Fire Sect.

Half an hour later, Chen Yang used the pupil technique again to erase Qiangba's memory of what had just happened. Then he pulled out the silver needle and lifted the pupil technique.

It has to be removed. With Qiangba's willpower, Chen Yang's pupil technique cannot suppress him for long. Moreover, once Sangjie comes back, he will easily find out that he has been hit by the pupil technique. He will definitely be alert and will suspect him with just a casual question.

Therefore, erasing his memory and directly canceling the pupil technique is the best solution.

Qiangba lay on the table and took a short nap before waking up.

Chen Yang hadn't left yet. He looked at Chen Yang a little confused, not knowing what had just happened.

"Brother Qiangba, is your injury not healed yet? Why did you suddenly fall asleep?" Chen Yang asked puzzledly.

sleep?

After hearing this, Qiangba’s eyes became even more confused.

Did I just fall asleep?
After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that I was just chatting with Chen Yang, and suddenly I felt sleepy, so I took a nap.

"Brother Qiangba, are you okay?" Chen Yang looked as if he cared about him.

Qiangba shook his head. His brain seemed to be filled with paste and his reactions were a little slow.

It seems that this is still the aftereffect of the Emei Martial Arts Competition.

Chen Yang threw two bottles of Qi-boosting pills to him, exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then said goodbye and left.

……

It was already noon when I came out of the public housing.

Chen Yang went to the ancestral hall again. Old Zhou was still chatting with Liu Jianguo and others about matters related to the traveling teacher.

After sitting and listening for a while, the group went to the courtyard next to the ancestral hall to have lunch.

After lunch, Tong Chuan asked Tong Yaohua to arrange accommodation for the two of them.

Chen Yang and Zhou Mingyuan both temporarily lived in Tong Yaohua's home.

Tong Yaohua's home is a two-story wooden building, which is quite large. Usually, only the couple and their two children live there.

In the guest room on the second floor.

"Have you seen Shi Ling?" Old Zhou sat at the head of the bed and yawned.

The sun is shining brightly outside the window, and cicadas are chirping non-stop. Summer afternoons always make people sleepy.

"No, she seems to be asleep."

Chen Yang shook his head and explained the details to Mr. Zhou.

After listening to this, Mr. Zhou frowned slightly, "The soul is dormant, I'm afraid..."

I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with, but since he didn't see it with his own eyes, he couldn't say for sure.

Chen Yang lowered his voice, "Mr. Zhou, this is what I think..."

Jili quack, quack quack…

Chen Yang then told Mr. Zhou about his plan to seize the celestial beads from the Divine Fire Sect.

After listening to this, Mr. Zhou was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

He pondered for a moment and said, "It's still what I told you before. You can do it, but you must make sure it is foolproof. Don't make it a big deal and cause endless trouble."

Chen Yang nodded slightly, "I will snatch it from the Gushen Cult, so as to avoid conflict with the Divine Fire Sect. When the time comes, Elder Zhou can help me keep an eye on Sang Jie."

"Ah."

Mr. Zhou nodded and didn't say much.

If it was just about stealing things from the Gu God Cult, it would indeed be much simpler, and there would be no need for Zhou Mingyuan to take action, Chen Yang could do it alone.

"I heard from Tong Chuan that they only had a face-to-face encounter with the rampant troops that day, and the Youshi behind them did not show up. Shi Ling was injured like this. It seems that the strength of this Youshi is indeed extraordinary..."

Zhou Mingyuan stroked his beard and pondered for a moment. "I just looked at the layout of the village. The houses in Tongjiaao are very well arranged. There is only one main road in and out, and four small roads extend out. The houses are built on both sides of the road in an orderly manner. It looks very much like the "White Python Swallowing Evil Situation" in the Feng Shui of the Dharma."

"White python swallows evil?"

Chen Yang's eyes moved slightly. What was that thing?
Zhou Mingyuan said, "This winding main road in the village is the body of the white python, the four small roads are the python's claws, and the location of the python's head is the Tong Family Ancestral Hall. I guess it should be set up by a master of the Dharma according to the shape of the mountain..."

Naturally, Chen Yang would not doubt Mr. Zhou's vision.

"Mr. Zhou, what's the use of this White Python Swallowing Evil Scheme you mentioned?" Chen Yang asked.

Zhou Mingyuan said, "This kind of layout is often used to suppress evil spirits. The location of the Tong Family Ancestral Hall can be seen as a python head. The python head looks back and faces the pass of Dawa Mountain. After this layout is built, it can use the energy of the earth veins to counteract the evil spirits, thus achieving the purpose of suppressing and neutralizing the evil spirits."

Chen Yang was a little confused when he heard this. "What evil could there be in the Tong family that would require such a big fuss and set up such a scheme?"

Zhou Mingyuan shook his head. "I just asked Tong Chuan, but Tong Chuan seemed to know nothing about it. He only said that the village has been like this for generations. As for who set up this situation, he couldn't say."

Chen Yang frowned, with one eyebrow higher than the other.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Hearing what you said, I feel that this incident of wandering teachers may be related to the ancestors of the Tong family. It is probably not a coincidence that they appeared in Dawa Mountain and attacked the Tong family..."

Zhou Mingyuan opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but finally held back.

"Let's wait for Xuan Jing and the others to come back and ask about the situation first."

Zhou Mingyuan yawned and was about to take a nap.

"Mr. Zhou, Chen Yang."

At this time, Tong Yaohui started shouting in the yard, "Master Xuanjing and the others are back, and asked me to ask you to go to the ancestral hall to discuss matters."

Are you back?

The two looked at each other and then walked out of the room.

……

-

ancestral hall.

Chen Yang finally met Xuan Jing.

There were quite a few people sitting in the hall. Xuan Jing led the team this time. He had five senior monks of the Yuan generation under him, and there were also three lay Buddhists in the Creation Realm.

There are a total of eight people in the Creation Realm.

This is enough to show how much importance Baoguo Temple attaches to this matter.

In addition to Xuan Jing and others, Sangjie and his apprentice Gongbu were also present.

Chen Yang greeted everyone one by one and introduced Zhou Mingyuan to everyone.

Xuan Jing obviously knew Zhou Mingyuan and knew that he was a capable person, so she immediately stood up to greet him.

Although Zhou Mingyuan is a casual cultivator, he is indeed in the late Dao Zhen realm, and his strength is even higher than Xuan Jing. It is indeed surprising that he can come to help.

As for Sangjie, he knew Zhou Mingyuan even better.

Forty years ago, under the leadership of the government, a major fight was planned between the three secret sects in the Central Plains and Western Frontier.

At that time, Sangjie's senior brother, the monk Danba, was assigned to fight against Zhou Mingyuan.

In that battle, the monk Danba was defeated, so the government stepped up pressure and the Divine Fire Sect retreated to the desert for forty years.

Sanjay will never forget this face in his life.

Logically speaking, two enemies should be jealous of each other when they meet, but Sang Jie is not stupid. He knows that he is no match for Zhou Mingyuan, so he just nodded slightly as a greeting.

Afterwards he made up an excuse, saying that he was a little tired and wanted to go back to rest, and left with the people from the Divine Fire Sect.

Out of sight is pure.

"Master, what's the situation?"

After Sang Jie and others left, Chen Yang immediately asked about Xuan Jing's situation.

Xuan Jing and others entered the mountain yesterday afternoon and stayed there for a night, so it shouldn't be that they gained nothing at all.

"I walked in the mountains all night last night and roughly figured out where those wandering masters were hiding."

Since there were no outsiders around at this time, Xuan Jing did not shy away from the topic and said directly, "There is a Corpse Eye Pond on the southern foot of the mountain top. There are many sunken coffins in the pond, and inside are soldiers and horses of the wandering army, numbering about two to three hundred..."

"According to my observation, most of these soldiers have reached the spiritual realm and are controlled by three powerful wandering masters. The realms of these three wandering masters are not low. Two of them have reached the middle stage of the creation realm, and one has even entered the late stage of the creation realm. Their combat power is unknown..."

"Since Sangjie and the others were following me, I didn't dare to act rashly, so I didn't alarm them and went down the mountain first and then planned a way to retreat."

……

Xuan Jing is still very cautious.

In that situation, if Sang Jie and the others were not there, Xuan Jing, with so many experts, would most likely choose to fight head-on.

But Sanjay just stuck to him like a dog-skin plaster. He said he was helping, but God knows what he was thinking.

If Sanjay were to do something bad behind the scenes during a fight, the consequences would be disastrous.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, Xuan Jing decisively chose to evacuate after finding out the situation.

Regardless of whether Sanjay is here to help sincerely, we must never give him the opportunity to cause trouble.

Originally, Xuan Jing planned to send a message to Xuan Qing to come over after he went down the mountain. At that time, the two great monks would take action, one keeping an eye on Sangjie and the other dealing with Master You. They would take care of each other and the situation would be handled more safely.

But now, since Zhou Mingyuan is here, there is no need for that.

Based on Xuan Jing's understanding of Zhou Mingyuan, whether it is suppressing Sangjie or cleaning up Master You, it will not be a problem.

"Do you know the specific identities of those wandering masters?" Zhou Mingyuan asked.

"I don't know their exact identities, but judging by how decayed their armor is, it should be hundreds of years old..."

"These people are really cruel to themselves. If they die, they die. Why do they have to torture themselves and turn themselves into corpses, never to be reborn? I really don't know what they are trying to achieve..."

Xuan Jing shook her head helplessly.

For immortality?
But what’s the point of immortality if one becomes neither human nor ghost?

Zhou Mingyuan didn't say much.

If given a choice, who would be willing to take this path that will lead to no reincarnation?
Chen Yang said, "I have seen the Five Rogues. Their fighting power is indeed fierce, even comparable to that of the gods. But if we can control them, they can come at will and go away at will. Is there any way to control these wandering masters?"

"Ah."

Xuan Jing heard this, shook his head and smiled, "If they could be controlled, they wouldn't be called wandering masters."

"Although the wandering masters are similar to the Five Devils and Five Camps soldiers, there are great differences between them. The most obvious point is that the wandering masters are not worshipped with incense and offerings. Before death, the Dharma Masters cast spells and refine their own magic. After death, they become wandering masters, and are free, just like independent cultivators. They are not subject to any restraint. It is extremely difficult to control them..."

"Is there no solution at all?" Chen Yang asked.

"There is no way."

Zhou Mingyuan said, "It's just that the risk is too great."

"In my early years, I also came into contact with some Duangong monks from the Yuanhuang and Meishan sects, and helped them deal with wandering masters. In their profession, it is common to turn a person into a spirit after death and let future generations worship him to protect them. However, it takes great courage to turn a person into a wandering master..."

"It is said that the conditions for the birth of a Youshi are very harsh. Before the death of the Master Duangong, he must mix his own blood with cinnabar and draw a corpse refining talisman on his body for 49 days. Then, before the end of the 49th day, he can choose a way to die, such as being struck by lightning, stabbed, or drowned. The more violent the death, the better..."

"After death, the body must be placed in a coffin filled with poison. On a full-moon night, have the coffin sunk into an extremely sinister, dark, and evil place. Furthermore, after the coffin is sunk, it cannot be worshipped by future generations..."

"After many years, when the day comes when the evil spirits break out of the coffin, they will become wandering masters. Wandering masters are different from ordinary soldiers. They have some of their consciousness from their previous lives and are stronger than before. They are not afraid of fire, poison, swords, or axes..."

"They can walk normally in broad daylight, but because they are affected by evil spirits and hostility, they are violent, cruel and bloodthirsty. In addition, these beings were mages of the Dharma Sect in their previous lives and knew some strange magic. Therefore, their degree of danger is even higher than that of the gods..."

"The process of becoming a wandering master is extremely painful. According to them, there are only two types of people who dare to do this. One type wants to gain a different kind of immortality through this method, but to be honest, this kind of immortality is too unbearable and is an extreme torture for them themselves..."

"There is no other feasible way to deal with this kind of wandering master except to physically destroy them. It is even more unrealistic to drive them away. After all, it is easier to invite a god than to send him away, let alone a god who has fallen into the devil's way and cannot be saved at all."

"Another type of wandering masters, they choose to become wandering masters, not for some alternative immortality, but for revenge. They carry a blood feud and are unable to repay it during their lifetime, so they choose to transform themselves into wandering masters and take revenge after death..."

"This kind of wandering master has obsessions. If you want to subdue and control them, there are ways..."

Zhou Mingyuan paused for a moment, then picked up the tea beside him and took a sip.

It can be seen that he has a certain understanding of the profession of Duangong.

"Senior, what can we do?"

Chen Yang quickly asked the question that everyone wanted to ask.

This old man kept everyone in suspense at the critical moment, which really whetted everyone's appetite.

Zhou Mingyuan shook his head and spoke slowly, "If it is the second type of wandering master, you must first find out who his enemy is, then use the enemy's skull as a bowl, fill it with the enemy's blood, pour it from the top of the wandering master's head, and then use coffin nails to drive into its vital points, then the wandering master can be made to recognize the master, but the price is that every full moon night in the future, you must use your own flesh and blood to feed the wandering master, otherwise you will be attacked by the wandering master..."

This……

As soon as Zhou Mingyuan said this, everyone was shocked and silent.

This method is too dark, isn't it?
"Mercy, mercy..."

Several masters of the Yuan generation were chanting Buddhist mantras in low voices.

It’s a pity that Sanjay is not here, otherwise it might just seem like child’s play.

"Cough cough."

Xuan Jing coughed lightly and said, "Now, we don't know the origins of these wandering masters. It doesn't matter what kind of wandering masters they are. There is no need to subdue such things. So, in my opinion, it is better to destroy them directly..."

No matter who the enemy is, Xuan Jing only knows that if he doesn't deal with this thing, it will be really troublesome. This group of wandering masters must have been formed for at least a hundred years. In a hundred years, even if there are any enemies, they are probably dead. Where can they find skulls and blood?
Therefore, the simplest way is to eliminate it directly.

It's not like they don't have the power to destroy it.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. Who would dare to take something like this for themselves?
If there is a backlash, it would be a real loss.

At this time, Xuan Jing looked at Tong Chuan and asked abruptly, "Tong Chuan, you are also the oldest person in your Tong family. Do you know the origin of this group of wandering soldiers? Do they have any grudges with your ancestors?"

These roving soldiers did not appear anywhere else, but appeared in Dawa Mountain. They also attacked people from the Tong family. There might be some grudge between them.

Chen Yang also looked at this old man Tong in confusion. From Shi Ling, Chen Yang knew that the ancestors of the Tong family had some shameful pasts.

Shi Ling was badly cheated by Tong Chuan's grandfather.

Facing everyone's questioning gazes, Tong Chuan could only smile bitterly, "Master, I really don't know the origins of these wandering soldiers. I really don't know anything about my ancestors..."

Liu Jianguo said with a serious face, "Mr. Tong, we are all gathered here to help your Tong family deal with hidden dangers. If you know something, it's best not to hide it..."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Tong Chuan shook his head repeatedly, "I'll go back and look through the clan history to see if I can find any clues."

After hearing what he said, everyone stopped pressing him.

However, almost everyone instinctively felt that those wandering masters in Dawa Mountain were probably really related to the Tong family.

Tong Chuan quickly changed the subject and said, "The mountain-suppressing stele is placed behind the ancestral hall. If we return the stele to its original position in the mountain, I wonder if we can suppress it again?"

"Ah."

Xuan Jing and others all sneered.

This group of wandering soldiers should have been sleeping in the mountains for many years. Why did they come out only recently?
The only suspicious thing is the mountain-guarding stele.

According to the inference of Xuan Jing and others, this mountain-suppressing stele has been placed in the mountain for a long time. In addition to its function of suppressing the spiritual creatures in the mountain, over the years, the stele may have been connected to the earth veins in the mountain.

When the Tong family removed the mountain-guarding stele that day, it must have disturbed the earth veins in the mountain, thus waking up the group of wandering soldiers.

Therefore, the rebellion caused by the wandering army was most likely caused by the Mountain Suppressing Stele. However, it does not mean that the Mountain Suppressing Stele can suppress this evil creature?

Xuan Jing and others are very clear about the power of the Mountain Suppression Stele. It is somewhat useful to suppress some ordinary, powerful mountain beasts, but using it to suppress roving troops is simply an international joke.

The wandering army has existed for a long time, and the mountain-guarding stele is just an introduction.

No one paid any attention to Tong Chuan anymore.

Mr. Zhou asked Xuan Jing, "What are your plans now?"

Xuan Jing said, "Let's take a rest tonight. Tomorrow is a sunny day. We will go up the mountain again tomorrow morning. We will try to catch them all in one fell swoop while the strength of the rampant soldiers is weakened during the day..."

"Sang Jie will most likely go too. He's a ticking time bomb. I'll have to trouble Elder Zhou to help take care of him when the time comes."

……

Xuan Jing told the plan, which was simple and crude. To deal with this group of roving soldiers, there was no need to use any tricks, just do it.

If Sang Jie had not been present last night, Xuan Jing would have probably taken action long ago. It was precisely because of Sang Jie's presence that he was tied up and had to be cautious and bring his men back first.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhou nodded.

He had no objection. At the moment, this was the best way to deal with it.

There are three wandering masters, one in the late Creation Realm, and two in the middle Creation Realm. As long as they enter the Dao True Realm, they are still within the controllable range.

As for the rest of the soldiers, no matter how many there are, they are just vegetables and can be completely ignored for beings of their level.

……

After everyone finished the discussion, they all went downstairs to rest.

After a night of hard work, everyone is obviously exhausted. Keep your energy and spirits high as there will be a tough battle tomorrow.

However, Chen Yang was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he followed Xuan Jing and Zhou Mingyuan out of the Tong Family Ancestral Hall and strolled some distance towards the mountain pass.

While taking a walk, Chen Yang told Xuan Jing about the collusion between the Divine Fire Sect and the Gu God Cult.

He did not tell Wang Yuanchao or Liu Jianguo about this. It was not because he did not trust them, but because he was afraid that these two people could not cover it up.

The ranks of Wang Liu and the other two are not good enough, and when the matter is reported to the higher-ups, they will have to implicate him and use him as a witness. He doesn't want to stand in the sun and be targeted by the Divine Fire Sect as an informer.

When Chen Yang told Xuan Jing about this, he no longer had any concerns in this regard. After all, Xuan Jing's identity and strength were there, so who would go to him to inquire about the source of the information?

After listening to this, Xuan Jing's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

"I was wondering why this old guy was sticking to me like a dog-skin plaster. It turns out he was planning to do this."

"Sang Jie has been discussing scriptures with me these past few days, and I really thought he was a virtuous monk. But it turns out that it is difficult to change a person's nature. This Divine Fire Sect deserves to die."

……

Xuan Jing started cursing directly.

There were so many swear words that Zhou Mingyuan felt a little embarrassed to listen.

Chen Yang also told him about his plan to rob this batch of Dzi beads and wanted to hear Xuan Jing's opinion.

Xuan Jing said, "This old man is taking advantage of our opportunity to deal with Master You to fish in troubled waters. It's amazing that he thought of this. Tomorrow when we enter the mountain, no one will care about them. For them, this is a perfect opportunity to contact and trade with the Gu God Cult..."

"It seems that we have to ask Sangjie to come along tomorrow. In this case, he can only send his disciples to trade. The only person he can use now is the kid named Gongbu."

Xuan Jing pinched her chin and said to Chen Yang, "With your strength, it shouldn't be a problem to get rid of that Gongbu, right?"

Uh, clean up Kampot?

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Master, what I'm thinking is that after they complete the transaction, I will directly snatch these celestial beads from the Gushen Sect. In this way, we can avoid a direct conflict with the Divine Fire Sect."

"What? Are you afraid that you can't beat Gongbu?" Xuan Jing frowned slightly.

"How can it be."

Chen Yang shook his head. "Qiangba is not my opponent, and Gongbu is even less likely to be my opponent. I just heard that the Divine Fire Sect has a strong foundation. I am worried..."

"Nothing to worry about."

Xuan Jing waved her hand and interrupted Chen Yang directly, "A real man should not be hesitant or timid. Just deal with it cleanly..."

"Uh, this..."

Chen Yang paused. Xuan Jing's words seemed to conflict with Mr. Zhou's advice to him.

But Xuan Jing said, "You are responsible for dealing with Gongbu. As for Sangjie, Elder Zhou and I will deal with him."

Hearing this, Chen Yang's face twitched and he looked at Zhou Mingyuan.

Zhou Mingyuan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He had not expected Xuan Jing to be so violent.

Zhou Mingyuan said, "Master, with you and I joining forces, it is not difficult to get rid of Sang Jie, but how will it end? He is one of the three great monks of the Divine Fire Sect. If he died here inexplicably, the Divine Fire Sect would probably be furious. What's more, we still have to deal with Master You tomorrow, and the situation may be very complicated..."

Xuan Jing is a highly accomplished monk. How could he ignore the consequences and act on his own accord?

"Mr. Zhou is wrong."

Hearing this, Xuan Jing shook her head repeatedly, "Sang Jie volunteered to help us get rid of Master You. Why should we end this? He died at the hands of Master You. He died bravely and heroically. We risked our lives but failed to save him. Afterwards, I will ask the association to commend him and give him a certificate of honor. What else can the Divine Fire Sect ask for?"

"This……"

Mr. Zhou was stunned.

Chen Yang was also stunned.

Can this old monk still operate like this?

Xuan Jing grinned, "The situation may be very complicated tomorrow. Let's save some effort and let him do it first. He wants to help us get rid of the wandering masters. He can't give up at that time, right? After he has made great efforts, we will find a chance to get rid of him and the wandering masters together. Chen Yang will be responsible for dealing with Gongbu's gang. Don't you think everyone will be happy?"

Mr. Zhou was speechless.

I have to admit that this monk is really evil.

I thought he was reckless and impulsive, not considering the consequences, but in fact, he was more sober than anyone else and had already thought of a comprehensive plan.

"The master is indeed worthy of being a master."

Chen Yang was a little excited and gave a sincere compliment.

They would use the same trick against the enemy and let Sangjie help deal with Master You, squeeze out all his value and kill him directly. Afterwards, they would commend him and have the association come forward to commend him. This would naturally shut up the Divine Fire Sect and make them speechless.

Chen Yang suddenly felt that he still had a lot to learn.

"So, is it settled then?" Xuan Jing asked.

Chen Yang looked over at Mr. Zhou.

Of course he wants to do it, it just depends on Mr. Zhou's attitude.

"Well, it's up to you."

Mr. Zhou smiled bitterly and then nodded in agreement.

He was not afraid of trouble, he just didn't want to take risks and didn't want to cause unnecessary consequences. But since Xuan Jing had a careful plan, he had no reason to disagree.

Sanjay really deserves to die.

Seeing Mr. Zhou nod, Chen Yang breathed a sigh of relief, and Xuan Jing also smiled.

If Zhou Mingyuan hadn't participated in this matter, he would not have been able to accomplish anything on his own.

Xuan Jing asked Chen Yang, "Can you handle Gongbu by yourself? Do you want me to send two more people to you?"

"No, it's more convenient for me to do it alone."

Chen Yang shook his head, thinking that having too many people would be inconvenient.

Xuan Jing raised her eyebrows, "This matter is of great importance. After getting rid of Gongbu, we have to extinguish his life fire and not let him pass the news on. Moreover, if someone from the Gu God Cult is also here..."

"Master, don't worry. As long as they are not in the Dao Zhen realm, I will make sure they are sent away quietly." Chen Yang replied confidently.

Xuan Jing then nodded and said nothing more.

Xuan Jing is also confident in Chen Yang's strength.

The strength of that Gongbu is not stronger than Qiangba, and when Chen Yang fought with Qiangba that day, he didn't use his full strength at all. It was more than enough to deal with Gongbu.

……

-

Night, public housing in the village.

The croaking of frogs in the fields outside was mixed with the chirping of insects in the woods. Their voices were hoarse, as if they were announcing a death, and it made people feel very irritated.

In the room, Sangjie sat cross-legged, turning the prayer wheel and chanting something.

Just now, Xuan Jing came to him specifically to talk about tomorrow's arrangements for going into the mountains, and asked him if he wanted to go into the mountains together tomorrow.

Sanjay naturally agreed.

Now that he, Xuan Jing and the others have gone into the mountains, who can pay attention to the movements of his disciples? It would be much easier for Gongbu and the others to act.

After turning for a while, the prayer wheel stopped.

Sanjay opened his eyes, and it was obvious that he was not very calm.

"Gongbu."

Sangjie looked towards Gongbu.

The young disciple quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Master, the Gu God Cult has sent a message. We will meet at Moon Bay at 8 o'clock tomorrow night..."

Moon Bay is not far from Tongjiaao, just four or five miles north of Tongjiaao, under the cliff in the north of Dawa Mountain.

It belongs to the territory of Ya City. It is remote enough and convenient for evacuation.

"Ah."

Sang Jie nodded slightly, "You will follow me up the mountain tomorrow, and then find a chance to leave halfway, so that you can avoid being targeted by the people left behind in the village. When the time comes, when you meet the people from the Gu God Cult, be more careful. You must give us everything you promised us before. This is the first transaction between us and the Gu God Cult, so be careful..."

"Master, rest assured. I understand."

Gongbu responded quickly, his eyes falling on the prayer wheel in Sangjie's hand.

Sangjie did not hesitate any longer and directly handed the prayer wheel in his hand to Gongbu, "Take it. If anything goes wrong, don't blame me for being merciless."

"Yes."

Gongbu knelt on the ground, raised his hands above his head, and respectfully took the prayer wheel.

This prayer wheel is an invaluable treasure. There is a small space inside it, and the Dzi beads that they are going to trade with the Gu Shen Cult this time are stored in it.

"Master, what should I do?"

Next to him, Qangba was a little jealous.

The master gave such an important task to Gongbu, but ignored me. Could it be that I have fallen out of favor?
"you?"

Sangjie rolled his eyes at him and said, "All of you should follow Gongbu's instructions and be ready for the response."

Qiangba paused when he heard this and his eyes fell on Gongbu.

Gongbu showed an undisguised smug smile on his face.

These two men are both disciples of Sangjie. They are about the same age and have similar realms and strengths. They have always been competing with each other.

In the past, Qiangba seemed to be suppressing Sangjie and was more favored in front of Sangjie, but after being defeated in the Emei competition this time, he clearly felt that the treatment had changed.

The master seemed to have a little more disgust towards him and became more dependent on Gongbu.

"Humph."

Looking at Gongbu's smug look, Qiangba couldn't help but snort coldly, feeling very angry.

Asking him to listen to Gongbu's arrangements would make him Gongbu's subordinate, which would be even more painful than killing him.

Sensing Qiangba's mood change, Sangjie glared at him and said, "This matter is very serious. No matter who it is, if they dare to ruin my plan, I will never let them off easily."

"Yes."

Qiangba paused for a moment, then quickly lowered his head and endured it.

Let Gongbu be proud for a while. When my strength recovers, I will teach him a lesson.

Although he was defeated in this duel with Chen Yang, it was not without gain. Not only did his fighting spirit improve, but after using his fat-burning ability, his body was also further tempered.

When his body recovers, it will surely be even better than before. A mere Gongbu is nothing.

……

-

Silent all night.

The next day was indeed a sunny day. At only seven o'clock in the morning, the sun had already spread to every corner of Mount Dawa.

The towering Dawa Mountain looks like layers of golden tiles from afar, emitting a sacred and mysterious glow.

The temperature hasn't risen yet, and the mountain breeze is still a little cool. The noise of cicadas in the surrounding woods has already been heard one after another, making people's eardrums calloused.

There were already quite a few people gathered in front of the Tong Family Ancestral Hall.

Xuan Jing stood in front and gave a speech to everyone.

This time when we go into the mountains, if nothing unexpected happens, we will have a bloody fight with the wandering army's soldiers. The wandering army's soldiers are very powerful, so there will definitely be a bloody battle. There are many things that need attention, and they must be explained to everyone in advance.

For those below the spiritual realm, there is no need to go up, and going there will most likely lead to your death.

Before going up the mountain, I counted the number of people.

Including the people brought by Sangjie, there are a total of twenty-nine people, eight of whom are in the Creation Realm, and the remaining ten or so are in the Spiritual Realm, of which thirteen are from the Divine Fire Sect.

Xuan Jing gave everyone a red rope and asked them to wrap it around their hands.

This is the life rope he refined, which is stained with his spiritual energy. It can gather the breath of everyone and defend against attacks to a certain extent. In addition, if they get separated in the mountains, Xuan Jing can also locate them through the rope.

Without any unnecessary nonsense, after everyone put on the red ropes, they followed Xuan Jing's leadership and marched out of the village towards the pass of Dawa Mountain.

……

Mount Dawa is a huge table mountain with cliffs on all sides. The height difference is two to three thousand meters and it is very steep. Only on the east side, there is a path that winds up the cliff and reaches the top of the mountain.

There are no roads in many places on the mountain. The mountain paths carved out on the cliffs are very difficult and dangerous to walk on.

If you are not careful, a bump, a hit, or a fall may result in you falling into the abyss.

When climbing the mountain, everyone was on high alert, lined up in a row, and slowly walked up the mountain wall.

Tong Chuan, the old man of the Tong family, walked in front to lead the way. Everyone walked on their own and few people spoke.

At noon, we finally reached the top of the mountain.

The scenery at the top of the mountain is exceptionally beautiful, with a sea of ​​clouds floating in the air, mountains surrendering to the ground, and endless plain forests. The entire mountain looks like a sky garden left in the world.

After resting for a while, everyone continued on their way.

But no one seemed to notice that in the Divine Fire Sect team walking at the end, one person seemed to be missing at some point.
