CHAPTER 641: CHAPTER 324: SECRET_2

"Hehe! This is a long story!"

Zhuang Yangming sneered and asked, "Guess whose order I and my fellow sect members are following?"

"An Elder in the Golden Core Realm of the sect?"

Li Yunjing responded.

"Hehe! No! If I tell you, even a monster like you will be shocked!"

Zhuang Yangming said playfully.

"Oh? I’m really curious, can you say it and surprise me?"

Li Yunjing was genuinely curious.

If Zhuang Yangming’s cultivation wasn’t so profound and his divine soul strong, making it difficult to perform a soul search, he would have considered doing it to uncover any secrets that could shock him.

"Very good! I also want to see the surprised look on a monster’s face! I’m going to tell you!"

Zhuang Yangming smiled silently, his expression incredibly solemn, and said in a deep voice, "The Buddhist Sect, do you know?"

"What!"

Li Yunjing almost wondered if he’d heard wrong.

Buddhist Sect?

The powerful faction that keeps fighting against the Profound Sect?

In the history of the Shenxiao Dao Sect, they have fought against the Buddhist Sect multiple times, causing wars that were even more brutal than those during the extermination of demons.

On the territory of the Shenxiao Dao Sect, within the Great Ming Dynasty, when demon cultivators appear, the Shenxiao Dao Sect might not mobilize experts immediately to eliminate them.

But if there were signs of Buddhist Sect activities, they wouldn’t just target Buddhist Sect experts; even those extreme followers would be killed without mercy!

In actions against the Buddhist Sect, the Shenxiao Dao Sect has always been the vanguard of the Profound Sect!

It can be said that on the Southern Heaven Continent, besides the Demon Dao and the Demon Dao, the Buddhist Sect is the biggest enemy of the Shenxiao Dao Sect.

Suddenly hearing this name, how could Li Yunjing not be shocked?

The Buddhist Sect’s influence has already reached the East Sea?

Just like others in the Shenxiao Dao Sect, Li Yunjing immediately became vigilant, his eyes flashing coldly, his entire body tensed up.

"Haha! Surprised, aren’t you?"

Seeing Li Yunjing’s emotional change, Zhuang Yangming laughed and coughed, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

"Which branch of the Buddhist Sect? What is your Soul-Controlling Sect’s relationship with the Buddhist Sect?"

Li Yunjing continued to ask.

"Hehe! What relationship? How could a small figure like me know? I only know that our sect sent a group to complete a secret mission."

Zhuang Yangming sneered, "As for which branch of the Buddhist Sect? These bald donkeys are so mysterious, they never reveal their identities, not even their names."

"Interesting! The Buddhist Sect! Hehe!"

Suddenly hearing such a big secret, Li Yunjing’s mind was greatly shaken, feeling some panic; should he immediately send the information back to report to the sect and carefully prepare a response?

"I’ll tell you one last secret! The massacre on Lingxiu Island was orchestrated by the Buddhist Sect, and entering Yingtian Prefecture was also under their orders. As for their intentions, that’s beyond my knowledge!"

Zhuang Yangming didn’t care about anything since he was going to die. He even maliciously hoped that the Soul-Controlling Sect, Shenxiao Dao Sect, and Buddhist Sect would engage in a chaotic war and all perish.

"Interesting!"

Li Yunjing nodded, asking, "How many people from the Buddhist Sect are there? What is their cultivation level?"

"Among those we’ve encountered in the Buddhist Sect over the past hundred years, we’ve only seen four people. Three of them are in the Golden Core Realm, and one is at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm!"

Zhuang Yangming said openly.

"Thump!"

Li Yunjing’s heart couldn’t help but twitch; with three Golden Core Realm experts, the place he was in must be incredibly dangerous.

"Hehe!"

Seeing Li Yunjing’s serious expression, Zhuang Yangming laughed again, sinisterly saying, "Li Yunjing, you’re lucky! On Lingxiu Island, there are treasures cultivated by those bald donkeys. You can go search for them if you dare!"

"What treasure?"

Li Yunjing seemed to have a bad premonition and couldn’t help but ask again.

But this time, Zhuang Yangming couldn’t answer.

Seriously injured by Li Yunjing, he finally couldn’t hold on.

Watching Zhuang Yangming tilt his head and breathe his last, Li Yunjing sighed, pointing a finger, causing the ground to crack open, revealing Zhuang Yangming’s corpse.

Li Yunjing took the storage magical treasures from his body, then waved his sleeve, causing the sand and stones on the ground to roll over and bury Zhuang Yangming’s corpse again.

"Dust to dust, earth to earth, why bother!"

Li Yunjing turned around to see Zhu Wanyun carrying a large bundle, walking toward him.

"National Preceptor, here are all the storage bags and Hundred Treasures Pouches! I found every single one." Zhu Wanyun said with a grin.

"Good!"

Li Yunjing nodded, checking these items one by one.

The demon cultivators weren’t wealthy; aside from the commonly used demon artifacts, their wealth was far below the average cultivator’s level.

However, with so many people, they gathered quite a bit of resources.

"Take these storage bags. Use the resources inside for your cultivation!"

Li Yunjing selected ten storage bags, destroyed some of the demon artifacts, and left the spirit stones, spiritual materials, and Qi cultivation elixirs for Zhu Wanyun.

"National Preceptor, I didn’t do much; I can’t take these resources!"

Despite wanting them, Zhu Wanyun felt embarrassed in front of Li Yunjing, shaking his hand.

"Haha! Take them! I hope you succeed in Foundation Establishment!"
