Chapter 2165 - 2154: Demon God Sect Strikes Again
Huahua and Tangtang’s plan seemed perfect, but they never actually put it into action, unaware of the dangers that awaited them.
Meanwhile, upon learning that the two protectors from the Buddhist Sect were preparing to return to investigate the culprit behind the massacre years ago, the Demon God Sect members were growing restless.
Once those from the Buddhist Sect returned to gather reinforcements, they would surely target the Demon God Sect. Recently, the Holy Hall had unearthed all the hidden culprits from that massacre.
Though the Holy Hall hadn’t yet acted against the Demon God Sect, it didn’t rule out future actions.
With Lin Zifeng gone, the Holy Hall couldn’t afford to target the Demon God Sect. But the Buddhist Sect didn’t care; they could easily use the investigation banner to hassle the Demon God Sect.
Thus, members of the Demon God Sect couldn’t sit still, preparing to act against those two protectors once they left the Holy Hall.
At one o’clock in the deep night, the sky was dark, with only a few stars occasionally visible...
Tonight, the Buddhist Sect’s protectors planned to return after being monitored by the Demon God Sect all day, forcing them to leave stealthily at night.
Precisely, after tracking the whereabouts of the two protectors, Yao Qingjiao and Yao Chenfeng led dozens of powerful masters to ambush them. Once they were dead in Zhonghai City, the Buddhist Sect wouldn’t be able to trace it back to them.
The Demon God Sect knew that lately, the Holy Hall had killed many culprits from the massacre years ago for the Buddhist Sect. If those protectors died here, it could be justified as they recently avenged those killings.
"Sect Master, do you think the Holy Hall might secretly intervene tonight and trap us all?" Yao Chenfeng was uneasy, remembering how last time they failed and almost exposed themselves. If they fail again and the Holy Hall deceives them, it could mean death and exposure, leading both the Buddhist Sect and Holy Hall to target the Demon God Sect.
In today’s world, apart from the vast Buddhist Sect, who would dare offend the Holy Hall?
"Hehe, don’t worry, everything is under my control tonight. I believe the Holy Hall won’t know about our actions, and even if they do, they won’t find us," Yao Qingjiao sneered.
"Since I’m daring to act now, I know the mission inside out. Relax and get ready to kill those monks," Yao Qingjiao laughed coldly, suddenly darting out like a swift cat from the shadows.
The target locked onto the two protectors about to cross the sea.
"Senior brother, why do I feel something’s off?" The young monk frowned, sensing the potential dangers in the desolate docks.
The surroundings felt unusual, though he couldn’t pinpoint exactly where. The secret return to the Buddhist Sect was known only to the Holy Hall, so they should be protected and escorted safely. Yet no one from the Holy Hall appeared.
"Stop wasting time, let’s leave this perilous place. We’ll strategize once back at the Buddhist Sect," the Great Monk said seriously.
"Okay." The young monk nodded.
"Swish..."
"Senior brother, bad!" As they turned, a bright light suddenly pierced the dark night. The young monk’s face darkened, aware danger loomed.
"Where do you think you’re going, baldies!"
Yao Qingjiao, dressed in a black outfit and masked, charged directly at them.
"It’s bad! It must be the Demon God Sect!" The Great Monk’s face turned grim, pushing the young monk aside.
The unexpected attack took them both by surprise, leaving them defenseless as a sharp Cold Arrow pierced the Great Monk’s outstretched hand!
"Pfft~"
Blood splattered as the fierce Cold Arrow penetrated the Great Monk’s hand, the powerful recoil sending him flying due to his rushed counterattack.

"Argh!"
The young monk was furious, realizing the Demon God Sect relentlessly pursued them. They should’ve sought out the Demon God Sect earlier.
"Won’t you die this time!"
Yao Chenfeng held a dark green war bow, ready to shoot a lethal arrow at the young monk’s chest the moment an opportunity arises.
"Bang!"
Yao Qingjiao’s palm technique, sharp as a knife, struck fiercely, unable for the young monk to withstand.
"Yao Qingjiao!" As the young monk was struck, he tore off Yao Qingjiao’s mask.
"Hehe, now that you know my identity, it’s too late. You must die tonight!" Yao Qingjiao smirked coldly.
Whoosh...
A Cold Arrow sliced through the Void, unyielding, with a puffing sound, followed by blood erupting as the arrow pierced the young monk’s chest.
Yao Qingjiao quickly stepped forward, landing a heavy punch on the young monk’s abdomen, boing~
After the arrow hit, the young monk was powerless, the punch making his eyes dull, his body flying back like a cut string kite...
"No!!!"
The Great Monk watched helplessly as his junior was brutally beaten, eyes burning red, heart pained like being stabbed, desperate to save him, but Time wasn’t on his side.
"Pfft~"
A flash of blood as the Great Monk’s abdomen was hit by an arrow!
He flipped backward, crashing into the grass, using all his strength to crawl up, spitting blood.
"Holy Hall! Holy Hall! Beiming Yu, didn’t you promise to escort us tonight? Where are your people?!" The Great Monk was furious, recalling Beiming Yu’s promise of deploying the Sky Net here, but...
Now they were both near death, and the Holy Hall was nowhere to be seen, leaving the Great Monk feeling unbalanced and uncomfortable. If the Holy Hall couldn’t genuinely help, they shouldn’t promise anything.
