Shiranui's assassination target happened to be Wang Baozi, Wang Lvdou's cousin, but Shiranui was killed by Wang Lvdou instead. This may be a kind of karmic retribution.

The onlookers applauded and cheered.

They did not think the security personnel's actions were too rude.

No amount of rudeness is too much when dealing with Japanese people, especially since this guy doesn't look like a good person at all. He definitely didn't come to China with good intentions.

Facial features don't reveal much.

However, some conclusions can also be drawn from this perspective.

Judging people by their appearance is definitely wrong.

But the saying "appearance reflects the heart" has some basis in fact.

Meanwhile, Lin Beichen on Longhu Mountain also noticed that the menacing aura on Wang Baozi's face had lessened.

"It seems that your calamity has been partially averted."

Lin Beichen suddenly said this to Wang Baozi.

This situation arose precisely because Wang Baozi chose to stay by Lin Beichen's side. If he had insisted on going his own way and not staying with Lin Beichen, he would probably be in grave danger by now. Staying by Lin Beichen's side is the safest option; even if assassins come knocking, it's not a big deal, since the assassins can't even find him right now.

Lin Beichen's words relieved Wang Baozi.

Although he never mentioned it, he kept it on his mind.

This is a matter of life and death.

How could he not value it?

"Thank you very much, Daoist Lin Beichen."

"You're welcome. The video you posted is also helpful to us. However, you still need to stay by my side for the time being. Your crisis is not completely over yet, so you'll have to wait a little longer."

"This young man's situation is indeed a bit strange. It seems that this Lin Beichen is quite capable." Everyone present had actually noticed this, but they hadn't said anything at first.

Most of the Taoist priests had some opinions about Lin Beichen.

Even if Lin Beichen did help them, it involved the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain.

This concerns the reputation of the entire Longhu Mountain region, and they will not back down on this issue. Even if what Lin Beichen said is true, it is tantamount to slapping Longhu Mountain in the face.

With so many Taoist priests on Longhu Mountain and many senior figures guarding the dragon vein, the fact that problems could still occur under such tight security is itself the biggest problem.

Unless there's a problem within Longhu Mountain.

Otherwise, this situation would never have occurred.

Lin Beichen's speculation was tantamount to questioning them.

Although the words weren't explicitly stated, everyone here is intelligent enough to understand the underlying meaning.

"Indeed, this Brother Wang has done a great thing for our China."

Lin Beichen didn't care about the surprise of many Taoist priests.

Yu Feng was the first to stand up, pointing his finger at these people.

“You all said that Wang Baozi and I are outsiders, so let me tell you, Wang Baozi is a brave man who exposed the conspiracy of the Japanese people, and for that he offended the Japanese people.”

"That's how he got his bloodshed."

"Now, do you think we deserve to stay here? If you really don't welcome us two outsiders, then we'll take our leave. If you don't want us here, there are other places that will."

Yu Feng spoke with considerable confidence.

These Taoist priests may indeed have some dissatisfaction with them.

But no matter what, there are still reasonable people among this group of Taoist priests.

Putting everything else aside, the three Taoist priests, Qingfeng, Yangliu, and Zhao Si, are quite down-to-earth. They are relatively polite to Lin Beichen and his two companions, and they are the only ones who can be communicated with.

"So this is the guy who leaked the inside information of Japan."

Li Mingyue muttered to herself.

Her words seemed harmless, but there was a cold glint in her eyes.

She thought to herself, "I should tell Shiranui this news. The person he's looking for is here. My silly senior brother is probably still out there searching for this guy's whereabouts."

As luck would have it, Dawn Moon and Shiranui are connected.

The two are fellow disciples.

Before coming to China, Shiranui had also contacted Limingyue.

The two had a good relationship, and he told Dawn Moon about his mission in detail. Of course, Shiranui didn't expect Dawn Moon to help him complete the mission. He didn't take such a trivial matter to heart. It was just killing an ordinary person.

But things can change in an unpredictable way.

Who could have imagined that the task would be so difficult?

Forget about killing anyone, we can't even find the mission objective.

In this situation, even if he had extraordinary abilities, he wouldn't be able to use them.

A thoughtful look appeared in Li Mingyue's eyes. She really wanted to stop these people from going to the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain. "It was going so smoothly before, I knew something was wrong, and trouble still came."

But how can we stop it?
Li Mingyue was in a real headache.

She couldn't make her thoughts too obvious.

If there's nothing wrong with the dragon vein land, it's okay to be a bit more aggressive now.

But there's something wrong with this dragon vein. If I act too strangely, something bad might happen later.

"Junior Sister Limingyue, don't be angry. At worst, it's just a trip."

With a fawning smile, Zhang Wupo looked at Li Mingyue and said, "These outsiders are so impolite. When they meet our seniors from Longhu Mountain, I'll make sure they know what proper etiquette is." Despite his jovial demeanor, he held a very high and unapproachable position.

This person holds a very high position in Longhu Mountain.

Second only to Zhang Wuqing on the surface.

"Senior brother~"

Li Mingyue's face showed a delicate expression, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Her eyes were very expressive; she didn't say how much she had suffered.

Instead, she said that Longhu Mountain's reputation had been humiliated, that outsiders were even suspecting problems within the mountain, which made her very upset and angry. Her words drew nods of agreement from the others.

"This is really too much. These outsiders completely disregard Longhu Mountain."

Someone said angrily.

Li Mingyue had already stirred up their emotions.

"Who says otherwise? Hehe, if you ask me, we should just drive these guys out of our Longhu Mountain and deal with those Yin-Yang masters from the Sakura Kingdom. We don't need their help; we can handle it just the same."

"Heh, these guys really think they're something special."

"They only know a few minor spells, yet they think they're so great, not realizing they're just frogs in a well."

The mockery was undisguised and unbridled.

Many people have expressed doubts about Lin Beichen's abilities.

At first, they didn't believe that the people here were capable at all.

After discovering Wang Baozi's situation, they at most thought that Lin Beichen was among the worst of them. Little did they know that Lin Beichen's strength was actually greater than all of theirs.

Moreover, Lin Beichen's prediction was completely correct.

Perhaps these people didn't realize there was something wrong with the dragon vein.

But how could Lin Beichen not see it?
Black energy swirled around the dragon vein, faintly emanating a bloody stench.

This clearly indicates that something is wrong with the dragon vein, but these people are still foolishly unaware of the situation.

That woman definitely has a problem.

The so-called patient, Li Mingyue, actually already knew about the dragon vein.

That's why this woman deliberately stood up against me before.

"Knowing you can't stop me, you're pretending to be confused now."

Lin Beichen smiled; he knew exactly what Li Mingyue was planning.

Even if the matter of the Dragon Vein was exposed, he didn't want to reveal his true identity. But it didn't matter; Lin Beichen had plenty of time to play with Li Mingyue. He wanted to expose all the spies of Longhu Mountain to the light of day. Li Mingyue alone wasn't enough for him; his goal was to restore Longhu Mountain to its former glory.

At this time, Longhu Mountain was a scene of utter chaos and disorder.

These people's intentions are all too obvious.

Yu Feng couldn't take it anymore; he couldn't stand these people's arrogance.

I thought these Taoist priests would be easy to talk to, but I didn't expect them to be so difficult to deal with.

Yu Feng found it particularly laughable that they were completely outmaneuvered by a woman.

Women from Japan could blend in with you and no one would notice.

With this level of skill, they still have the nerve to mock Brother Lin Beichen.

"I just can't swallow this insult."

Yu Feng said bitterly.

Lin Beichen stopped him from getting angry.

We can't alert them yet; we have to take things slowly.

"It's alright, let them be. There will be people like this everywhere. Qingfeng Yangliu and Zhao Si are quite normal, aren't they? Let's just give them some face."

Lin Beichen's words barely made Yu Feng swallow his anger.

Wang Baozi, standing to the side, was also speechless.

What Taoist priest or not?

These people are utter trash.

……

Near the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain.

"Hehe, as long as we have some more time, we can control the dragon vein of China. At that time, we will be the greatest contributors." Beidou's lips curled up, his face full of pride.

"Sha Po Lang, those old guys said before that our Yin Yang School couldn't achieve anything. Now look, the Chinese have almost forgotten their traditional skills."

"We are the strongest warlocks."

Beidou was in an exceptionally good mood.

The so-called masters of Longhu Mountain do indeed possess some skill.

But these wise men are too detached from worldly affairs and have long lost their edge.

The two men disguised themselves as Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain, gained the trust of the old Taoist priest guarding the Longhu Mountain range, and then launched a backstab operation. The result was obvious: a great victory.

“We still can’t let our guard down. Longhu Mountain is just one of the thousands of Taoist sects in China. We are dealing with the whole of China, so the higher-ups don’t have high expectations for our operation. We should leave soon. Staying here too long will expose us.”

Sha Po Lang is very vigilant.

He had actually been preparing to retreat for three days.

But Beidou is short-sighted and insists on staying here.

He originally didn't plan to stay, but as time went on...

No one came to patrol the vicinity of the dragon vein until the third day. In addition, they had spies inside Longhu Mountain. According to the information from the spies, the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain still believed that their dragon vein was safe and sound. In this case, it was worth a try.

If it succeeds, it will be a great achievement.

If they truly have such merit, they can enjoy themselves when they return to Japan.

If Lin Beichen hadn't come, they would indeed have had a smooth journey, but unfortunately, Lin Beichen did.

Their intelligence agent, Li Mingyue, also had no chance to pass on messages to them.

After all, Lin Beichen's arrival was too sudden.

Moreover, Lin Beichen and his group are very assertive.

Even if Li Mingyue wanted to stop it, she would have to find a suitable reason.

Without a suitable reason, he was powerless to do anything. Li Mingyue didn't want to expose his situation; he planned to remain hidden in Longhu Mountain for a long time. As for what would happen to his companions in the Longhu Mountain dragon vein, he didn't care.

There's an old Chinese saying that goes something like this.

A dead Taoist friend will never die but a poor Taoist.

As long as I am safe and sound, the lives of others are none of my concern.

Only by staying alive can we reliably output intelligence; our own survival has greater value.

You can only blame your bad luck.

Li Mingyue comforted herself in this way.

He still felt somewhat reluctant, but driven by his instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, he still chose to do it. However, he did not think he had done anything wrong.

Let's switch roles.

Li Mingyue believed that the other party would do the same.

"Junior Sister, do you dislike that guy? If you want me to take action against him, I'm not against it." Zhang Wupo walked to Li Mingyue's side, and as he spoke, his hand rested on Li Mingyue's body.

This action sent a shiver down Li Mingyue's spine.

But she didn't make a fuss.

Her eyes flickered uncertainly.

She knew very well what kind of person her senior brother was.

She understood his intentions; he simply wanted her to sacrifice herself before he would kill for her. Don't ask why; even a Taoist priest can be so pragmatic.

Taoist priests are human too.

Who says that cultivating Taoism requires purifying one's mind and reducing desires?

"Senior brother, I understand. As long as you can get rid of that guy for me, I'm willing to do anything for you," Li Mingyue said softly. This was exactly what Zhang Wupo wanted to hear. At first, he was a little nervous, afraid that Li Mingyue would refuse.

Similarly, they were also afraid that Li Mingyue would scream loudly.

But now, Li Mingyue's reaction made him feel good.

He thought disdainfully to himself, "I thought you were so aloof, but I didn't expect you to be the same kind of woman. You'll do anything to achieve your goals. Hmph, I'll get you first."

"If my senior brother knew that the woman he had his eye on was like this..."

"I wonder what he'll think, haha, I can use this to distract my senior brother later."

Zhang Wupo is not stupid.

On the contrary, he was more shrewd than anyone else.

The reason he risked saying these things to Li Mingyue was...

More than anything, he wanted to use this to break his senior brother down.

Zhang Wupo knew very well that his senior brother Zhang Wuqing still couldn't forget Li Mingyue.

He actually held this in utter contempt.

He lost his dignity as a senior brother for the sake of a woman.

As a candidate for the leadership of Longhu Mountain, Zhang Wuqing should adopt the demeanor of a leader.

Everyone knows how to treat guests, but Zhang Wuqing made things difficult for them in every way because of a woman. No matter how you look at it, this is extremely shameful.

Their sordid deal had actually been discovered by someone.

However, that person did not expose him on the spot.

"I never expected them to do something like this. It's truly an eye-opener for me." Zhao Si never imagined things would turn out this way. He finally saw through these people completely.

He went to such lengths for a woman.

My senior brother Zhang Wupo is really something.

Not only Senior Brother Zhang Wupo, but also Senior Brother Zhang Wuqing.

What is it about this woman that makes them so fascinated? (End of Chapter)
