They all became female demons after being reborn.

Chapter 104 Speedrun!

Wu Cheng was quite surprised. "No, Miss Shen, is there so much information in Master Fei's words?"

Shen Yeshu smiled faintly, "Once you understand your master's way of thinking, it's easy to guess."

Then she pulled out a roll of paper from her sleeve and unfolded it. "Moreover, I also sent people to secretly infiltrate Tiefo Temple and found a lot of information. For example, there is a secret passage in the firewood room of the temple that leads to the foot of the mountain, and the exit is in the Earth God Temple in the west of the city."

Wu Cheng thought to himself, "No wonder! There must be an inside man!"

And why do these guys always like to build secret passages in the woodshed?

"How can this Iron Buddha Temple allow outsiders to enter?"

Shen Yeshu explained, "That person was originally a disciple of the Burning Heaven Sect. Later, when he could no longer survive, he joined my Extinction of Emotions Path. Perhaps the growing reverence for Buddhism in the Great Yu Dynasty led the Iron Buddha Temple to become overconfident, so they accepted him."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "This Iron Buddha Temple is not just about illegally occupying farmland. They swindle pilgrims out of their land under the guise of praying for blessings, detain children in the temple under the pretense of healing, and intimidate couples who are eager to have children by claiming that they are 'Buddha's disciple descended to earth'."

"And relying on the support of Yuan Hao, the magistrate of Luoyang, they collect more than a hundred children every year. They select twenty of them to send to Yuan Hao, while the rest are either kept by themselves to make magic tools, die of illness, or have their hands and feet broken and be thrown on the street to beg, so as to make money for the temple."

Shen Tu Lie cursed loudly, "These damned bald monks! They're even more demonic than my Holy Sect!"

Bodhidharma lowered his eyes slightly and softly recited Buddhist scriptures.

Wu Cheng remained silent for a moment before asking, "Mr. Shentu, have you brought all the men I asked you to?"

Shen Tu Lie patted his chest, "Twenty brothers in total, all skilled men left behind by Laozi's Burial Path! They might be average in a fight, but when it comes to digging graves and tunneling, no one knows it better than them!"

You're actually quite proud of yourself!

Wu Cheng rolled his eyes, then ordered, "Alright, tonight at midnight, you take men and sneak into the cellar through the secret passage of the Earth God Temple. Once we make our move, rescue all the children."

Shen Tu Lie nodded, "Don't worry, I've got it all covered!"

Wu Cheng then looked at Shen Yeshu and Qingque, "Sister Qingque, Miss Shen, could you please accompany me to see someone later?"

Qingque nodded slightly, while Shen Yeshu asked, "Who are you going to see?"

Wu Cheng said: "The magistrate of Xin'an County is Liu Tong."

Shen Yeshu raised an eyebrow slightly beneath his bamboo hat. "Does the young master suspect that he is colluding with the Iron Buddha Temple?"

"There must be some collusion," Wu Cheng said. "Liu Tong's son, Liu Lu, has always been a bully and tyrannical man who colluded with the Iron Buddha Temple. Many people know about the evil deeds of the Iron Buddha Temple."

"But they can still get away with it. Liu Tong can't escape responsibility, especially since he was Yuan Hao's subordinate. He's bound to be implicated."

They also have to bear a portion of the responsibility.

Shen Yeshu understood. "Young Master, are you planning to wipe out your entire family?"

Wu Cheng said, "This place is far from Lin'an City. After killing Liu Tong's family tonight, we will leave. As long as we leave a message, the maids and servants will naturally tell us that it was the work of a demonic sect."

"Iron Buddha Temple will surely be alerted, and we will take the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on it."

Wu Cheng looked at Bodhidharma, "Master, would you mind if I borrowed the name of your Burning Heaven Sect?"

Bodhidharma said in a deep voice, "Benefactor, please do as you please. It is our Buddhist duty to slaughter Mara's disciples."

Shen Yeshu asked, puzzled, "Young Master, what does this mean?"

She didn't mind using the name of the Demonic Sect to take the blame; firstly, she was already used to it, and secondly, it served as a form of deterrence.

She just didn't quite understand why Wu Cheng did this.

"This is the second step of the plan," Wu Cheng said with a smile. "The Iron Buddha Temple was wiped out, and the magistrate of Xin'an County was also wiped out. Those in Lin'an City who are interested will naturally associate this with the deaths of the magistrate of Luoyang and the Prince of Yu."

"They might think that the Demonic Sect will make a comeback, and since the Burning Heaven Sect is a sect that Buddhism fears, Buddhism's attention will be drawn to it."

"Luoyang is a strategically important border city. Do you think the imperial court might suspect that remnants of the Demonic Sect are collaborating with the Northern Barbarians, or perhaps they simply..."

"Were they sent by the Northern barbarians to cause trouble?"

Moreover, North Sheng really did it.

Before long, Li Anchan will lead a group to infiltrate Luoyang and cause trouble. She even created something like the Hidden Dragon Ranking to sow discord between the Great Yu court and the martial arts world.

To put it bluntly, although killing Lao San and Yuan Hao was Wu Cheng's own idea, Bei Sheng was the one who benefited the most from it.

Since you, Li Anchan, are causing me trouble, don't blame me for messing with you too!

If this incident can lead the imperial court and Buddhist sects to believe that it is related to Beisheng, they will naturally look for "clues".

Once Li Anchan arrived in Luoyang, well... that confirmed that Bei Sheng was the scapegoat!

When the time comes, Li Anchan will have to bear the consequences even if she can't handle it!

"Once the court and the Buddhist sects' attention is drawn away by the so-called Demonic Sect, the Burning Heaven Sect, and the Northern Barbarians, we will secretly infiltrate Lin'an City. At that time, we will have a greater chance of rescuing your Demonic Sect senior."

"I see." Shen Yeshu looked at the confident Wu Cheng with her light eyes, and a smile crept onto her originally broken and sorrowful cold face.

Fei Yuan tilted her head to look at Shen Yeshu, then at Wu Cheng, and then blinked her crimson eyes.

It seems that my good apprentice hasn't smiled since he had a serious illness a few years ago.

And now she seems to always have a smile on her face.

Shen Tu Lie also clicked his tongue, "You little rascal...you're really cunning! Aren't you tired of thinking so much?"

He didn't want to think that much; he just wanted to ensure his disciples could survive, have enough to eat and wear.

Wu Cheng smiled and said, "I don't want to think about that much. I won't even know when I'll die."

He clapped his hands. "Alright, everyone rest for a few hours, and we'll begin our operation once night falls!"

"good!"

At the third quarter of midnight, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

Shen Tu Lie led twenty brothers through a secret passage in the Ten Temples and sneaked into the Iron Buddha Temple cellar.

Before the two monks guarding the class could react, their mouths were gagged and they were tied up like rice dumplings. Then, Shen Tu Lie sent them to meet Buddha with a single palm strike each.

Shen Tu Lie pushed open the cellar door, and the dim light from the tinderbox illuminated the cages inside.

A dozen or so children huddled together in the dark, gloomy cellar, their expressions numb.

The youngest one was huddled in a corner, its legs covered in purplish-blue bruises, and it was even unconscious.

Shen Tu Lie squatted down and carefully picked up the child. His rough face, which usually only knew how to curse and boast, was now taut with every creased brow.

Without his orders, the remaining twenty disciples of the Burial Path took off their outer robes one by one, wrapped the children in them, and then carried them out of the cellar and into the secret passage of the woodshed.

The entire process was completely silent.

At the same time, Wu Cheng and his group left the now desolate Liu residence and headed towards the Iron Buddha Temple.

Shortly after the group left, a few maids and servants cautiously peeked out before fleeing.

The grand show is about to begin.
