The white-bearded Taoist priest opened his eyes, but there was a hint of helplessness in his gaze as he looked at the person next to him.

Although those who study Taoist arts also learn martial arts, when they actually fight, they use Taoist arts. When do they actually use martial arts?

How could you possibly think we couldn't win?

He glanced around; the villa had been set up with a maze.

Anyone who dares to break in will be trapped in the formation, wandering around like a headless fly.

At this point, those outside the formation could easily kill their opponent.

Of course, if the other party is very capable and vigilant, it might be a bit tricky.

As long as the opponent doesn't break out of the formation, they're like fish in a bucket, ready to be slaughtered at any time.

Bijin Mountain isn't actually that big, it's just that the route is too complicated. Yun Li estimated that it would take about three hours to get to the Min family's house following this route.

If you walk in a straight line, it takes half an hour to reach Min's residence.

If you walk in a straight line, you will pass by other people's houses, and you might be spotted by their bodyguards.

In addition, many straight roads are undeveloped and contain many hidden dangers, so it is better to take the developed roads.

One o'clock

The Min family bodyguards had changed shifts, and the black-bearded Taoist priest had started yawning.

"Senior brother, I'm getting old, staying up all night really isn't good for me. How about I go and rest for a few hours and then come back to relieve you?"

The white-bearded Taoist priest, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, slowly opened them and stared intently at his junior brother.

Sudden……

"Snapped!"

Without warning, he raised his hand and tapped the person next to him on the forehead.

The man with the black beard covered his forehead, looking extremely aggrieved. "Senior brother, if you don't want to, just say so. Why hit me?"

The white-bearded Taoist priest withdrew his hand and closed his eyes again. "If you know money is hard to earn, then do your job well and don't be lazy."

The black-bearded man looked resentfully towards the villa's main entrance. Why hadn't the murderer arrived yet?

It's really impolite to make two elderly people wait.

Yun Li, who was walking while observing, sneezed, rubbed his nose, took a black coat from his space, put it on, and continued walking.

Half an hour later, as he reached a bend in the road, Yun Li's mental energy directly illuminated the spot where he had stopped to put on his coat, and he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

The straight-line distance is no more than five minutes, but they built this winding, circuitous road.

They have way too much money.

What Yun Li didn't know was that these paths were significant, containing Taoist principles.

The purpose is to prevent people unfamiliar with the area from getting lost.

It's only because Yun Li has the mental power to observe the entire mountain that he could find the Min family; otherwise, it would probably take him ten days to half a month to find them.

Of course, unless you're incredibly lucky and happen to run into them.

2 a.m.

The black-bearded Taoist priest's stomach rumbled, and he rubbed his belly weakly, complaining, "The Min family really doesn't know how to treat people. Why don't they even prepare midnight snacks for us?"

The white-bearded man remained seated with his eyes closed, seemingly oblivious to his words. However, upon closer inspection, one could see his chest heaving violently several times after the black-bearded man finished speaking.

He thought to himself: Did you eat shit at 11 o'clock?

She let out a barely perceptible sigh. "This is really awful. This junior brother is indeed quite capable, but he just happens to have a lazy and gluttonous nature."

I really don't want this junior brother.

But you can't afford to lose it.

It's all Master's fault for being so heartless. Before he left, he made Master swear that he would never abandon the lazy, good-for-nothing boy.

Another sigh escaped my lips. My life is so hard!

"Senior brother, you stay here, I'm going to the kitchen to find something to eat."

The white-bearded Taoist priest opened his eyes and looked at him, who had already gotten up and walked towards the kitchen, his eyes filled with utter despair.

Everyone suspected that their opponent might be someone with special abilities, but they were unaware of the danger and were only thinking about eating.

After thinking it over, he glanced at the front door with his weathered and imposing eyes, then closed them again.

While the black-bearded Taoist priest went to the kitchen, Yun Li also got hungry and took out the most convenient large meat bun to eat as she walked.

Yun Li had food readily available, but the Black-Bearded Taoist Priest was in a much worse situation.

Min's Kitchen does have a good selection of vegetables and meats, but they are all raw.

The poor Taoist priest, who couldn't cook, could only squat down and eat a raw carrot.

While eating, he muttered curses at the Min family for being so stingy, not leaving anyone to watch over the kitchen at night.

It wasn't that the Min family didn't want to keep anyone, but rather that they were afraid the servants would misbehave and ruin the Taoist priest's plans, so they ordered everyone to stay in their bedrooms before midnight.

At three o'clock in the morning, Yun Li finally arrived not far from the Min family's residence.

At that very moment, the white-bearded Taoist priest suddenly opened his eyes.

He glanced at the kitchen and got angry. An hour had passed, and his junior brother still hadn't returned.

Left with no other choice, he summoned one of the Min family's bodyguards who was on night watch and said, "Go to the kitchen and call my junior brother here."

The old master of the Min family had already given instructions that everything should be done according to the two Taoist priests' wishes that night.

Without any hesitation, the bodyguard headed towards the kitchen.

The white-bearded Taoist priest then summoned Brother Leopard from the Flying Dragon Gang, saying, "Everyone be careful, the murderer has arrived."

Leopard was lean and wiry, and didn't stand out among the bodyguards and his men, but he was a real skillful man to become a small leader in the Flying Dragon Gang.

Upon hearing this, his expression turned serious, and he nodded before heading to organize the Min family bodyguards and his five henchmen from the Flying Dragon Gang.

Yun Li saw everything clearly, from the white-bearded Taoist priest's actions to the bodyguard's words. She wasn't surprised that the old Taoist had discovered her arrival.

Looking into the other rooms, the Min family members seemed quite carefree, as they were all asleep.

This shows the family's trust in the old Taoist priest, which also indicates that the old priest was exceptionally skilled.

Yun Li took out a Zhong Kui mask from his spatial storage and put it on before walking towards the gate of the Min residence.

She wore a mask because there were still many bodyguards, servants, and even the two old Taoist priests in the Min residence; these were not the people she needed to deal with.

To avoid revealing one's true face, it's better to cover it up.

The white-bearded Taoist priest and his bodyguards all kept their eyes fixed on the villa's large iron gate.

Time passed second by second.

"They're here!" the white-bearded Taoist priest called out in a deep voice.

Through the large iron gate, a black figure appeared under the orange streetlights.

The bodyguards swallowed hard, tightening their grip on their machetes.

Neither of them moved, separated by a door.

The bodyguards didn't move because Master Huang, also known as the White-Bearded Master, hadn't given the order.

Master Huang remained still, waiting for the person outside to enter the formation.

Yun Li remained still, carefully observing the people and the furnishings in the courtyard.

She had read many books on Taoist arts, so she naturally knew that formations were a major aspect of Taoist arts.

Have to prevent!

When most people see a killer appear, they will either rush in or seize the opportunity to make a move.

But these people didn't make a move at all, as if they were waiting for something.

This confirmed to her that the courtyard had been set up with a trap, and they were waiting for her to walk into it on her own.

Suddenly, Yun Li saw a smile appear on the lips of the white-bearded old Taoist priest.

This made her heart skip a beat, and she felt somewhat uneasy.

Just then, she saw the white-bearded old Taoist priest walking towards the big iron gate.

Yun Li didn't move, remaining fully alert as she watched the old Taoist walk to a position ten meters away from her.

Separated by a large iron gate, the two men's eyes met, and they sized each other up.
