Instructing her daughter to practice throwing knives, the police were frightened and asked to file

This news shocked and indignant everyone in the Taoist temple. They did not expect that the leader of the Black Evil Cult would be so arrogant and dare to come and provoke openly.

Taoist Xuanzhen was even more furious. He knew very well that the leader was deliberately provoking him and trying to disrupt their plans.

The black-robed old man's face turned serious when he heard the news. He understood that the leader must have made some preparations when coming here in person. He was worried that his identity would be exposed, and that the Taoist temple would suffer a greater disaster.

However, Taoist Xuanzhen did not back down. He summoned all his disciples and prepared to fight the leader of the Black Evil Sect.

The old man in black robe looked at the determined eyes of Taoist Xuanzhen, and a sense of pride surged in his heart. He decided to help the Taoist temple overcome this difficulty no matter what.

As night fell, the temple was brightly lit. Taoist Priest Xuanzhen led a group of disciples, ready to fight.

The old man in black robe was also placed in a hidden corner, observing the movements outside.

Soon, a gust of cold wind passed by, and the leader of the Black Evil Cult appeared in front of the Taoist temple with a group of followers. He was wearing a black robe, with a sinister look on his face and a fierce light flashing in his eyes. He glanced at the people in the Taoist temple and sneered: "Master Xuanzhen, I didn't expect you to dare to fight. Today, I will make your Taoist temple a river of blood!"

Upon hearing this, Taoist Xuanzhen shouted angrily: "Heisha Sect Leader, please stop being so arrogant! Today, we are going to eradicate this evil villain like you and rid the people of this harm!"

After saying that, he led his disciples to rush out and engaged in a fierce battle with the members of the Black Evil Sect.

The old man in black robe also took the opportunity to take action, secretly assisting the Taoist temple disciples in fighting against the members of the Black Evil Sect.

For a moment, flames shot up into the sky and screams of killing were deafening in the Taoist temple.

Although the old man in black robe was still injured, he tried his best to help. His appearance caught the followers of the Black Evil Sect off guard and they retreated one after another.

However, the leader of the Black Evil Sect was no ordinary person. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately used his evil skills to launch a fierce attack on Taoist Xuanzhen. Although Taoist Xuanzhen had profound cultivation, he gradually lost the upper hand under the fierce attack of the leader.

The old man in black robe was extremely anxious when he saw this. He knew that if he didn't help, Taoist Xuanzhen might be in danger of his life. So he gritted his teeth and decided to take a risk.

He flashed and appeared beside Taoist Xuan Zhen. He swung the sword in his hand and launched a fierce attack on the leader.

The leader did not expect the old man in black robe to attack suddenly. He was caught off guard and was stabbed in the shoulder by the old man in black robe.

The leader screamed and retreated violently. He stared at the old man in black robes, with a trace of fear in his eyes: "You... you dare to betray me!"

The old man in black robe sneered: "I have never been truly loyal to you. Today, I am here to eliminate you, the evil villain!"

After that, he swung his sword again and launched a fierce attack on the leader. Although the leader was furious, he was also intimidated by the strength of the old man in black robe and did not dare to move forward easily.

The black-robed old man's sword pierced through the night sky like lightning, and went straight for the leader's throat. A trace of fear flashed in the leader's eyes, and he dodged quickly, barely avoiding this fatal blow. He roared, formed seals with his hands, and a black gas surged out from his palms, instantly turning into a black giant python, and pounced on the black-robed old man.

The old man in black robes felt nervous when he saw this. He knew that this giant black python must have been transformed by the leader's evil technique, and it was extremely powerful. He did not dare to be careless, and quickly adjusted his internal breath, gathered all his strength, and prepared to meet the enemy.

The black python opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and pounced on the black-robed old man. The black-robed old man lowered his body, raised his long sword from bottom to top, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at the seven inches of the giant python. With a "puff", the long sword pierced into the giant python's body, and blood splattered.

The black python screamed in pain and twisted its body wildly, trying to throw the old man in black robe off. The old man in black robe tightly grasped the long sword and let the giant python struggle. He tried his best to pierce the long sword deep into the heart of the giant python.

Finally, after a violent twitch, the black python turned into a wisp of black smoke and dissipated in the air. Seeing this, the leader's face changed drastically. He didn't expect that his proud martial arts would be broken by the old man in black robes, and he couldn't help but feel fear and anger in his heart.

The old man in black robe took the opportunity to launch a counterattack. His figure was erratic like a ghost, and his sword was swinging with sword energy. Although the leader had profound cultivation, he was gradually unable to resist the fierce attack of the old man in black robe.

Taoist Priest Xuanzhen saw this and immediately seized the opportunity to command his disciples to besiege the leader. For a moment, the Taoist temple was filled with sword energy and the sound of killing shook the sky. Under the siege of the crowd, the leader gradually showed signs of defeat.

However, the leader was a cunning man after all. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately used the escape technique and turned into a black smoke to escape. Taoist Xuanzhen and the old man in black robe saw this and immediately chased after him.

The night was as dark as ink. The black smoke that the leader turned into quickly dissipated in the night sky. Taoist Xuanzhen and the old man in black robe chased him relentlessly, but they could only watch him slip away.

The old man in black robe was still panting, feeling mixed emotions, regret and relief. He regretted that the leader had escaped, but was relieved that the Taoist temple was safe for the time being.

Taoist Priest Xuan Zhen looked at the old man in black robe, with praise in his eyes. He knew very well that without the help of the old man in black robe tonight, the consequences for the Taoist temple would be disastrous. He walked forward and patted the old man in black robe on the shoulder: "Thanks to you tonight, everyone in the Taoist temple will remember your great kindness."

The old man in black robe shook his head: "Master, you are too kind. I am just making up for my past mistakes." He looked up at the night sky, and an indescribable feeling welled up in his heart. He used to be a member of the Black Evil Sect, but now he has become an enemy with his former accomplices. All these changes seemed to happen in an instant.

Taoist Xuanzhen said nothing more. He knew that the black-robed old man must have a complicated mind. He turned around and told his disciples to clean up the battlefield and repair the destroyed buildings. The black-robed old man also joined in silently. He knew that from this moment on, he had truly become a part of the Taoist temple.

However, just when everyone thought that everything was settled, an unexpected situation occurred. The leader did not escape, but disguised himself as a wounded man and sneaked into the Taoist temple! That night, the moonlight was hazy and the stars were twinkling. The lights in the Taoist temple were turned off, and everyone had gone back to their rooms to rest.

The old man in black robe lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He always had an uneasy premonition in his heart, as if something was about to happen.

Suddenly, he heard a slight sound of footsteps. He immediately became alert, sat up, and listened with bated breath.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and seemed to be heading towards his room. The old man in black robe felt nervous, he knew that the person coming was not a good person!
He quickly got out of bed, dressed himself, and drew the sword from the bedside.

Just then, the door was gently pushed open and a figure staggered in.

The old man in black robe took a closer look and saw that it was a man covered in blood!

The man collapsed to the ground as soon as he entered the room, mumbling, "Save...save me..."

The old man in black robe was shocked and hurried forward to check the man's injuries.

I saw a deep wound on his chest, and his clothes were stained with blood.

The old man in black robe was full of doubts. Who was this man? Why was he so seriously injured? He didn't have time to think about it. He immediately took out the healing medicine from his pocket and treated the man's bleeding. The man seemed to have fallen into a coma and let the old man in black robe fiddle with him.

After a while, the man's breathing gradually stabilized. The old man in black robe breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that his life was safe for the time being.

At this moment, the man suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the old man in black robe. His eyes were full of fear and confusion: "Who... who are you? Why... why am I here?"

The old man in black robe was moved. He immediately realized that this man was probably the leader! He was both surprised and happy. He was surprised that the leader was so cunning, and happy that he finally had a chance to capture the leader. He tried to keep his voice calm: "Don't be afraid. I am a disciple of the Taoist temple. You were injured, and I saved you."

The man seemed to believe the black-robed old man's words, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you... for saving me..." However, a cunning light flashed in his eyes. The black-robed old man was startled, he knew that the leader had not really let down his guard. He had to find a way to make the leader completely reveal his identity!

So he deliberately said: "You are seriously injured and need to rest for a while. Just rest here and I will take care of you." With that, he stood up and walked out of the room.

The old man in black robe did not go far, but hid in the dark outside the door, secretly observing the movements in the room. As expected, after seeing him leave, the man immediately struggled to sit up and looked around. His eyes were full of vigilance and doubt, as if he was looking for a way to escape.

The old man in black robe sneered in his heart, and he immediately turned around to find Taoist Xuanzhen. He knew that it would be difficult to capture the leader by himself. He had to rely on the power of Taoist Xuanzhen to capture the leader in one fell swoop!
He came to the room of Taoist Xuanzhen and knocked gently on the door. Taoist Xuanzhen opened the door and saw the old man in black robe. He asked hurriedly: "What's wrong? What happened?" The old man in black robe whispered: "Master, the leader did not escape. He disguised himself as an injured man and sneaked into the Taoist temple. He is in my room now!"

Taoist Xuanzhen was shocked when he heard this: "What? The leader actually sneaked into the Taoist temple? This...what should we do?" The old man in black robe said in a deep voice: "Master, don't panic, I have discovered his whereabouts. Let's capture him now!"

As he said that, he turned and left. Taoist Xuanzhen followed closely behind him, and the two of them came to the room of the old man in black robe. The old man in black robe pointed to the door and said, "The leader is inside." Taoist Xuanzhen nodded and signaled him to step back. Then he took a deep breath and pushed the door open!
The room was silent, and the man seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep. However, Taoist Xuanzhen knew that this was just an illusion. He stared at the man and shouted coldly, "Master, why don't you show up?"

The man was awakened by Taoist Xuanzhen's shout. He sat up suddenly and looked at Taoist Xuanzhen and the old man in black robes in horror. There was a trace of panic and fear in his eyes, and he seemed to be in a desperate situation.

However, he did not surrender. He suddenly pulled out a dagger from his bosom and rushed towards Taoist Xuanzhen! Taoist Xuanzhen was prepared. He dodged the attack easily. Then he stabbed the throat of the Taoist with a sword!
The leader was horrified when he saw this, and he tried his best to retreat. However, his speed was far slower than that of Taoist Xuanzhen's sword. Seeing that the tip of the sword was about to pierce his throat, he suddenly shouted: "I give up! Spare my life!"

Taoist Xuanzhen's sword stopped at the leader's throat. He looked at the leader coldly: "Are you finally willing to admit defeat?" The leader nodded: "Yes, I admit defeat. I am willing to submit to the Taoist temple and make peace with you from now on."

The old man in black robe was moved when he heard this. He looked at the leader, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes. He knew that the leader was an extremely cunning person and his words could not be trusted. However, he also understood that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If they could take advantage of this opportunity to subdue the leader, then the Black Evil Cult would completely collapse!
He approached the leader and looked him straight in the eyes: "Are you really determined to submit to the Taoist temple and no longer be our enemy?" The leader nodded solemnly: "Yes, I am willing. I know that I have made many mistakes in the past, and I am willing to spend the rest of my life to make up for them."

The old man in black robe and Taoist Xuanzhen exchanged glances, and both of them revealed determination. They understood that this was a risky decision, but for the future of the Taoist temple, they were willing to take the risk. Taoist Xuanzhen nodded: "Okay, then we will give you a chance. I hope you can cherish this opportunity and completely change your ways."

Upon hearing this, the leader showed joy on his face: "Thank you! Thank you for giving me this opportunity! I will cherish it!" As he said this, he tried to stand up, as if he wanted to express his sincerity and determination.

However, at this moment, the situation suddenly changed! The leader flashed and rushed out of the window with the force of thunder! It turned out that everything he had done before was a disguise, just to paralyze Taoist Xuanzhen and the old man in black robe so that he could take the opportunity to escape!

Taoist Priest Xuanzhen and the old man in black robe were horrified when they saw this and immediately chased after him! However, the leader was so fast that he disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye. They chased him all the way but still failed to catch up with him.

The night was as dark as ink, with a crescent moon hanging high in the sky, but the thick clouds made it almost invisible. The temple was completely silent, with only the occasional chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves in the wind, which seemed particularly clear in this quiet night.

The black-robed old man and Taoist Xuanzhen stood side by side, looking solemnly at the direction where the leader disappeared. They were filled with frustration and anger, and thought they could take the opportunity to subdue the leader, but they didn't expect that he would still escape.

The old man in black robe clenched his fists, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes. He knew that if the leader escaped this time, it would be even more difficult to catch him in the future. And the safety of the Taoist temple would be threatened again. He turned to look at Taoist Xuanzhen and asked in a deep voice: "Master, what should we do next?"

Taoist Xuanzhen took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger and frustration in his heart. He knew that he could not panic at this moment, and he had to calm down and come up with a countermeasure. He looked firmly at the old man in black robe and said slowly: "We can't give up, we must continue to track down the whereabouts of the leader. At the same time, we must strengthen the defense of the Taoist temple to prevent the leader from attacking again." (End of this chapter)
