Qin's Moon: I'm really not the Holy Lord of the Demonic Sect

After killing the man who threatened their lives, the two girls picked up a long sword and a short hook respectively, and looked at Yang Che warily.

Although Yang Che is an enemy of the Poison Scorpion Sect, he is not necessarily their friend.

Looking at the girls who resembled two small leopards, Yang Che's gaze held a mixture of scrutiny and amusement as he said, "I'll give you two choices: first, pledge allegiance to me; second..."

"We choose the first one." Before Yang Che could even name the second one, the two girls answered in unison.

"A very wise choice. From this moment on, the two of you are members of my Patching Heaven Pavilion, codenamed Jingzhe, and I am your master," Yang Che said.

"Yes, Jingzhe greets Master." The two knelt down together and said in unison.

Although they are still young, they know that this is their only chance to change their fate.

As the two girls called out "Master," the Heavenly Demon Strategy changed once again.

Main Quest 1: Rebuild the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, progress 41%, quest reward: Heaven-Mending Dao.

As expected. Observing the changes in Tianmo Ce, Yang Che understood. Jingzhe indeed had the potential to become a top assassin; this was Tianmo Ce's assessment.

Just as Nongyu is to the Huajian School, and Zinu is to the Yin Gui School.

The two women directly brought the progress of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion to 41%, demonstrating their value.

When Yang Che led the two girls out of the cell, Jing Ni was already waiting in the hall, with a wooden box at her feet.

Jing Ni stepped aside and said, "The wealth of the Poison Scorpion Sect is all here."

Yang Che stepped forward and opened the wooden box, only to find it filled with gold coins, about two or three hundred in total. Not many, but definitely not few either.

"Take these things back first, I have something to take care of," Yang Che said, closing the wooden box.

Now that the Poison Scorpion Sect has been destroyed, the task of repairing the Heaven Pavilion will fall to another gang.

Jing Ni didn't say much. She closed the box, picked it up, and left. The weight of twenty or thirty pounds was nothing unusual for her.

After Jingni left, Yang Che led Jingzhe and the other two away from the Poison Scorpion Sect, heading south.

In the southern part of the new city, there are many poor people. When people are poor, they have no scruples. Gangs are quite powerful there. Although they are not as powerful as the Poison Scorpion Gang, which is parasitic on the commercial district, they are no less vicious.

The Poison Scorpion Sect was not Yang Che's only option, nor even the best one.

In the south of Xinzheng City, there is a gathering place for beggars.

The dilapidated courtyard, however, was a hidden world. A group of ragged beggars gathered together, clinking wine cups and eating with their mouths glistening with grease.

"We've acquired a top-quality item today. If we can sell it to Lord Anping's residence, we'll surely make a fortune," said the gaunt old beggar at the head of the group.

"That's not all. Those young men are quite good too. Some nobles really like this kind of thing. Their tastes are really strange," someone chimed in.

"You don't understand. It's precisely because they've had too many women that they want to change their tastes. I've heard that among the nobles, there's a saying that three flat ones are not as good as one round one. I don't know what it means."

Amidst the clinking of wine cups, the beggars became increasingly unrestrained. Suddenly, two figures burst through the door. The beggars were shocked and looked over, only to discover that the two figures who had broken in were also beggars, and that they hadn't broken in but had been thrown in.

The beggars looked closely and discovered that their throats had been smashed.

"Who are they?" The beggars were terrified. They had been attacked, and they all grabbed whatever they could use as weapons.

They used begging as a cover to secretly engage in human trafficking. They were also skilled in martial arts and were not afraid of gang fights.

Amid the beggars' wariness, a figure entered the courtyard. The newcomer was eight feet tall, dressed in blood-stained clothes, and masked. Behind him followed two disheveled, sword-wielding girls.

Only three people? Upon seeing this, the beggars breathed a sigh of relief, but then a fierce aura suddenly arose, and they brandished their weapons and attacked the newcomers.

But they soon realized they were wrong, terribly wrong. Faced with the attack, the man who suddenly broke in attacked with lightning speed, yet without a trace of ferocity. His every move was not like fighting, but leisurely strolling, as if he were taking a drunken walk. But every time his hand fell, someone would fall.

The two girls following the man, though not skilled in martial arts, were extremely fierce. After the man knocked down someone, the two of them would follow closely behind, thrusting their swords into the throat of the fallen person without the slightest hesitation.

When less than half of the beggars remained, the remaining beggars finally became afraid and knelt down to beg for mercy.

The attackers were Yang Che and his two companions. Yang Che looked at the beggar kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, and his calm tone carried a terrifying killing intent: "Want to live? Fine, kill your leader."

The beggars were slightly taken aback, but the old beggar's expression changed drastically. Just as he was about to run away, someone pounced on him from the side.

However, the old beggar was able to become their leader, so he must have his own skills. His body, which was obviously thinner than the other beggars, suddenly burst out with a stronger force than the young and strong. He punched the man in the chest, and although he failed to knock the man away, he broke his sternum.

But he had no time to escape, let alone make a second attack. As the first beggar attacked him, the second, third, and fourth beggars pounced on him.

The old beggar was skilled in martial arts; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to maintain his leadership position despite his advanced age. However, he quickly succumbed to the siege and was killed by the combined efforts of the group after only a brief resistance. Nevertheless, he managed to kill two people before his death, so it wasn't a complete loss.

Yang Che looked around at the remaining eight or nine people and still felt it was a bit too many, saying, "I don't need that many people."

Upon hearing Yang Che's words, the remaining beggars' expressions changed drastically. Yang Che was not giving them a way to survive!

However, some of them were clever enough to stab their companions with their knives in an instant.

"You..." The beggar who had been stabbed looked at the person next to him in disbelief.

"I'm sorry, I want to live." The man twisted the knife in his hand fiercely.

With this person taking the lead, the others also reacted. Yang Che led Jingzhe and the other two to the side, watching the beggars fight.

Yang Che only stopped the remaining four after the fifth person fell. The four looked at Yang Che nervously, not knowing what he would say next, nor what their fate would ultimately be.

"You four are quite good. You're fierce and intelligent enough, exactly the kind of talent my Heaven-Mending Pavilion needs," Yang Che said, scrutinizing the group.

The Butian Pavilion is an assassin organization, and assassin operations are often tied to intelligence operations. Beggars, who mingle among the common people, are the most inconspicuous and are the most suitable people to serve as intelligence agents.

Yang Che chose to take action against this group of beggars precisely because of this consideration.

Establishing the Heaven-Mending Pavilion requires not only assassins but also intelligence personnel. The four who survived the infighting are none of them ruthless or cruel, making them exactly the kind of talent the Heaven-Mending Pavilion needs.

As for their character, since they're all assassins, why bother considering their character? As long as they're useful, that's enough.

"Greetings, Pavilion Master." The four knelt down and kowtowed in unison. Those who survived were indeed intelligent.

Main Quest 1: Rebuild the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, progress 75%, quest reward: Heaven-Mending Dao.

With the surrender of several people, the progress of the task of rebuilding the Heaven-Mending Pavilion changed again, and it was one step closer to completion.

With a base and members already in place, the next step might be to complete a mission for assassins, and then the Butian Pavilion assassin organization would be truly established.

Compared to the ease and smoothness of the Flower Sect, the Heaven-Mending Pavilion was indeed much more troublesome, and the other five sects would only face even greater difficulties.
