Outside the Suspended Sea Camp, on an open ground.

The bright moon hangs high in the night sky, and the sea breeze brushes against the skin, bringing a slight coolness.

While Chu Zheng was treating his injuries, Yuan Yin explained the purpose of their visit.

This includes how Nie Chi learned of Sheng Wu's attack and Gu Changkong's intention in sending them.

"So, the Six Doors were behind this?"

Mu Yang immediately grasped the key point.

You bastard, Six Doors! You're like a persistent ghost, you're always around!

It's one thing to have you, but why don't you send a half-demon over here!

Hiding like that, what a disgusting person!

"Yes, Envoy of the Mu Xun Domain!"

Nie Chi nodded.

"Perhaps Xiao Yu's shadow is behind it all," Yuan Yin added from the side.

There were only two top-notch constables in Liangzhou, one of whom was busy confronting his master.

Therefore, the only one who can free up his hands is Xiao Yu!

"Very likely."

Gu Tingquan nodded in agreement.

Given that the other party and the people from the Vajra Temple suffered a defeat not long ago, it's not impossible that they would resort to underhanded tactics again.

"Damn Six Doors! They're truly despicable!" Chu Zheng snorted coldly, wishing he could immediately grab his gun and stab that bastard surnamed Xiao eight hundred holes in him.

"It's possible that the Vajra Temple was involved as well," Mu Yang added.

If even the bald monks of Vajra Temple dared to cause trouble at our doorstep, then they might very well be behind this sneak attack.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't have it.

Mu Yang just wanted to find a legitimate reason to come knocking.

"Does that bald monk Xu Yuan have the guts to do that?"

Chu Zheng was stunned for a moment.

"Perhaps not before, but now that he has the backing of the Six Doors, he's much bolder." Yuan Yin told Chu Zheng about the incident of blocking the city gate that happened some time ago.

"These sycophantic scoundrels!"

Chu Zheng said indignantly.

When their Demon Slaying Division was at its peak, no force, big or small, in Liangzhou dared to cause any trouble.

Now that the Six Doors have gained momentum, they're all jumping around and even daring to attack him, a mere deputy general in charge of suppressing evil!

They truly deserve to die!

Unfortunately, he was only a minor general tasked with suppressing evil, and his strength was insufficient.

If he had the strength of a general who could suppress evil, he would have stormed the Vajra Temple overnight and wiped out those bald monks and the dogs from the Six Doors!

However, to his surprise, Mu Yang directly said what he had only been thinking:

"Why not just attack the Vajra Temple directly?" Mu Yang looked intently at the people present. "Whether there's collusion or not, we'll find out soon enough."

Gu Tingquan: ? ? ?

Chu Zheng: !!!

Yuan Yin:..........

Nie Chi: (⊙_⊙;)

Who to hit?

Vajra Temple?

Really?!

Chu Zheng's eyes also lit up, as if he was about to be moved.

Seeing this, Gu Tingquan quickly spoke up, stopping the two eager but reckless men: "No!"

Putting aside the fact that Vajra Temple is not a small force like Ghost Lantern Temple, but a top Buddhist temple with flourishing incense offerings in Anling Prefecture and even the entire Liangzhou.

It not only houses Xu Yuan, a top-tier seventh-tier martial artist, but also several seventh-tier elders with considerable strength.

Of course, these are all minor matters.

Most importantly, Xiao Yu, that top-notch constable, is very likely at the Vajra Temple.

Without the Demon-Suppressing General leading the team, how could those few little Karami possibly be a match for an eighth-level Martial Soul Realm warrior?

"Please calm down, both of you. After all, Vajra Temple is a renowned Buddhist temple in Zhongzhou. Without solid evidence, taking action rashly will only give others ammunition and provide an opportunity for those thieves from the Six Doors!" Gu Tingquan earnestly advised.

The so-called Buddhist temple was an organization established by the most prestigious Garan Temple of the Great Jing Dynasty in conjunction with numerous Buddhist temples in various prefectures.

The location was set in Zhongzhou, where the imperial dynasty was located.

It is not only the venue for the triennial Wuzhe Conference, but also the elder brother that helps Buddhist temples in various places to protect their rights.

If a Buddhist temple is treated unfairly, people from the temple will come to its aid.

The reason why the Buddhist temple has such great power is because the ancient Buddha of Jialan Temple is a rare ninth-level martial artist.

Even the current emperor must be treated with courtesy.

If that's all there is to it, it's actually not so bad.

After all, the Vajra Temple is located in Liangzhou, and its abbot is only a seventh-level martial artist, so he doesn't have that much influence.

The difficulty lies in the fact that Jingang Temple is not a local Buddhist temple, but a branch temple established by monks of Jingang Courtyard of Leiyin Temple in Yunzhou.

As the second most powerful Buddhist temple after Jialan Temple, Leiyin Temple will inevitably investigate any problems that arise among its subordinate forces.

If this were twenty years ago, even the Garan Temple, with its ancient Buddha Garan, wouldn't have dared to show any displeasure towards the Demon Slayer Division's actions.

But now, it can only be said that times have changed.

This is why Xu Yuan, who was only a seventh-level martial artist, dared to cause trouble at the entrance of the Demon Slaying Division in the prefectural city.

Otherwise, even with the secret assistance of the top constables from the Six Doors, he wouldn't dare take the risk.

"Tingquan is right. We still need to think things through carefully regarding the Vajra Temple!" Yuan Yin also advised repeatedly.

To his surprise, Mu Yang, who had previously been quite bloodthirsty, did not insist too much on the issue of the Vajra Temple.

After being persuaded by Gu Tingquan and Yuan Yin, he nodded directly, indicating his understanding.

Seeing this, Chu Zheng was quite disappointed, while Gu Tingquan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Yuan Yin remained on high alert.

Giving up so easily doesn't seem like Mu Yang's style.

Sure enough, he then heard Mu Yang continue, "Since it's not feasible to attack the Vajra Temple for the time being, let's attack the Shuoyin Sect instead!"

Nie Chi: ? ? ?

That's right, from the very beginning, Mu Yang never intended to actually take action against the Vajra Temple.

After all, he is only a sixth-level martial artist now, so killing a few seventh-level 'ant realm' martial artists is nothing.

For now, I am still not strong enough to face the 'Senior Realm' of the eighth rank.

The reason for mentioning this is not only to test the waters, but also to direct the criticism at the Shuoyin Sect.

As for Nie Chi tipping off the enemy?

He had already kindly let Nie Chi go, considering he had delivered the message.

Otherwise, Nie Chi wouldn't have had the chance to put on a shocked expression here.

Nie Chi: ...Thank...thank you?

"The Shuoyin Sect..."

Seeing Mu Yang change his target, Yuan Yin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Shuoyin Sect and Vajra Temple are both top powers in Liangzhou.

However, with two sect leaders dying in succession and no one backing them, the Shuoyin Sect was just an easy target for the Demon Slayer Division.

Putting everything else aside, Mu Yang's combat prowess alone is enough to make him a one-man army.

"General Yuan, we had an agreement beforehand. Are you trying to break it?"

Seeing Chu Zheng nod, Gu Tingquan remain silent, and Yuan Yin also show some interest, Nie Chi immediately became anxious.

"Ahem!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yin coughed awkwardly.

I was so caught up in Mu Yang's words that I almost forgot about the agreement.

The agreement was not complicated. Nie Chi hoped that after tipping off Chu Zheng and saving him, he could only kill the ringleader, Sheng Wu, and those associated with him, and spare the lives of the rest of the disciples of the Shuo Yin Sect.

But now and then.

Given Mu Yang's demonstrated combat prowess, he clearly doesn't need Nie Chi's information.

But things definitely can't be done that way.

After a moment of silence, Yuan Yin gave a reply:

"Nie Chi, although you have left the Shuoyin Sect, you are still the personal disciple of the previous sect leader, and you must still have a group of supporters within the sect."

"With Sheng Wu dead, the Shuoyin Sect will surely be leaderless. Given your status and strength, and with the assistance of the Demon Slaying Division, how confident are you in taking over the Shuoyin Sect?"
