The cold moonlight shone on an old temple in the distance, reflecting a semicircle of light. It was like a transparent cover enveloping Huaiyuan Temple.
The night wind carried the sound of a horse bell. Ye Kong and the others rode their horses, leisurely walking along a dark path. The pitiful Ye Kong's black hair was shaved once again. However, since he had shaved it once, he didn't feel anything the second time. Kuang Peng, on the other hand, wanted to vomit blood.
But he had no choice. He had to disguise himself as a Mani Sect monk, so he could only suffer and shave his hair.
Ye Kong reined in his horse from afar. "Defensive immortal formations?"
Kuang Peng nodded. "That's right. That's why Wu Yong and I couldn't succeed. Now that these temples are broken, we send out large numbers of people to patrol during the day. At night, if there are no believers, we open the defensive formations."
Ye Kong nodded and smiled. "This is the first time I've seen a defensive formation. I thought the immortal world didn't have them."
"Why not? There are plenty of them outside." Kuang Peng was clearly more knowledgeable than Ye Kong.
Even Wu Yong was more knowledgeable than him. He said, "Not only the celestial formations, but there are also many things you haven't seen before, especially those barbaric planets. There are all kinds of strange spells, strange celestial artifacts, and immortal beasts that you can't imagine. I'll take you there when I have time."
Ye Kong's interest was piqued. He shook his head and said miserably, "I haven't been to many places. In the White Hair Region, that place is isolated from the world. I spent most of my time there in an ant hole. Then, when I arrived at Treasure Trove Planet, I went shopping once. After that, I came to Lianyun Planet. Other than killing monks, I became a monk, or chopped firewood … Sigh, how miserable! "
Kuang Peng and Wu Yong laughed at the sight of the usually arrogant Ye in such a miserable state. Kuang Peng said, "Speaking of which, you're quite miserable. I reckon you're the saddest ascender in tens of thousands of years. Hey, don't tell me you haven't even broken your immortal body yet."
Speaking of which, ever since he had arrived at the Immortal World, Ye had truly not done anything that involved a man and a woman. He did not know if his life was good or bad. However, Ye Kong felt that he was a little lacking as a hooligan.
Seeing that he did not speak, Wu Yong patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I know many female Golden Immortals, and they are all very beautiful. I guarantee that you will be satisfied. They are all snakes, insects, and centipedes in the Lower Realm who have cultivated to become immortals."
Ye Kong vomited blood. Snakes, insects, and centipedes … are too ridiculous. I can't do that even if I become a monk for the rest of my life.
The three of them talked and laughed as they arrived in front of Huaiyuan Temple. The monks guarding the temple did not suspect anything at all. Which robber would have such a good mental fortitude?
Wild Roc's level was the highest, so of course he would be in front. He flashed the Mani Order token that he found on San Jie. The monk guarding the temple took a look and immediately bowed. "Masters, thank you for your hard work. Please come in."
The defensive immortal array was opened, and an old monk was already standing inside the temple. He was smiling. He was a high-grade Golden Immortal.
The old monk smiled. "I am Fan Qibo, and I call myself Master Qibo. I am the abbot of this Huaiyuan Temple. How should I address you, Collector?"
Wild Roc snorted coldly and rode his horse in. He put on an arrogant look and said, "I call myself San Jie."
The old monk Fan Qibo quickly smiled. "Please rest here, Collector."
Ye Kong knew that he was wanted by the Mani Order, so not only did he shave his hair and changed into a monk's robe, he also smeared some dust on his face. He followed behind Wild Roc and did not attract any attention.
The three of them followed Master Fan Qibo to the backyard of the temple. On the way, Wild Roc hurriedly inquired about the situation of the other team that had collected the immortal jades.
He opened his mouth and asked arrogantly, "Erm, erm … are they here yet?"
Of course, Fan Qibo knew who he was asking about. It was obviously the other team that had arrived first to collect the immortal jades. Thus, he quickly reported, "Reporting to Supreme Envoy, Zen Master He Jie has been transferred by Master Wang Yue to participate in tonight's operation."
Wang Yue was the eldest disciple of the Mani Order's Grand Master, Zhou Jiajun, and the enemy who killed Wu Yong's sister. Ye Kong was afraid that Wu Yong would react and expose himself. However, when he looked back, Wu Yong was indeed able to endure it. He did not react at all, as if he had never heard of this person.
Wild Roc was puzzled. He asked, "Why don't I know about tonight's operation?"
Fan Qibo smiled. "Of course you don't, Supreme Envoy. This was a temporary order from Master Wang Yue. He said that the fugitive Ye Kong is greedy and might want to rob the immortal jades between Huaiyuan Temple and the main city. Therefore, Master Wang Yue ordered Zen Master He Jie and the others to pretend to rush to the main city to attract Ye Kong, and then lead him into our trap."
Wild Roc laughed. "That's great. It's just that I'm a step late. Otherwise, I would have participated in this operation and cut that Ye Kong into pieces!"
Fan Qibo hurriedly said, "Zen Master San Jie's Dharma is profound. If he had participated, it would have been like adding wings to a tiger. However, they have already left."
"Then forget it."
Fan Qibo led them into a meditation room and gave each of them a box of immortal jade. He then asked, "The three of you, there are still many women in my courtyard, but there are no virgins …"
Wild Roc thought that it was just right and immediately waved his hand. "That's boring. You old brat, give us what you've played with? Go, go, we still have to discuss tomorrow's matters! "
"Next time, next time, I will definitely prepare a few brides for you." Fan Qibo hurriedly greeted them, bowed, and left.
After he left, Wild Roc frowned and said, "Not good, those fellows with the immortal jades have already left. I presume that all the immortal jades in Huaiyuan Temple have already been confiscated. I'm afraid we've made a wasted trip this time!"
Ye Kong held the immortal jade box that Fan Qibo had just given him and said with a smile, "How could it be a wasted trip? Isn't this a harvest?"
Wu Yong said, "A few dozen immortal jades here are nothing. In my opinion, we might as well leave this place overnight and follow behind them. We can play along with them."
Ye Kong said, "I'm afraid you're the one who wants to kill Wang Yue."
Wu Yong did not deny it. He snorted angrily and said, "I want to kill him every day. I want to eat his flesh and drink his blood!"
Ye Kong stopped smiling and said, "In fact, Wu Yong's idea is not wrong. However, we don't know how many people Wang Yue and his companions have brought with them, and we don't know their cultivation bases. I'm afraid we'll be surrounded if we leave rashly. At that time, it'll be difficult for us to escape. Moreover, I heard that Wang Yue is already a low-grade Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. I'm afraid we're no match for him."
Wild Roc nodded and said, "That's right. Not only does Wang Yue have a high cultivation base, but I've also looked into his information. He's vicious and well-thought-out. If we're not careful, we'll fall into his trap."
Wu Yong could only sigh and slap his thigh as he said, "I'll definitely kill Wang Yue, that punk!"
In fact, Ye Kong did have some tricks up his sleeve. However, it would be difficult for Ye Kong to make Wu Yong kill Wang Yue with his own hands.
While Ye Kong was deep in thought, Wild Roc was deep in thought as well. Wu Yong looked to his left and right. He did not understand why the two of them had suddenly fallen into deep thought.
Suddenly, Wild Roc said, "This is bad!"
Almost at the same time, Ye Kong said, "That bald donkey, Fan Qibo, must've noticed us!"
Wu Yong said curiously, "No. I think he's very enthusiastic."
Ye Kong said, "When we arrived at the Huaiyuan Temple, we didn't waste any time. The monks guarding the temple opened the door. At this time, Fan Qibo was already waiting behind the door!"
Wu Yong did not think there was anything wrong with this. Wild Roc said, "It's obvious he knew San Jie would come tonight! According to San Jie, he gave the order at the last minute. How did Fan Qibo know about it? I'm sure the two of them communicated through the Celestial Sword Messenger beforehand … "
Wu Yong finally understood. "Since they communicated through the Celestial Sword Messenger, Fan Qibo and San Jie must know each other!"
"Quick!"
The three of them quickly picked up their weapons and chased out of the courtyard. However, there was no movement in the Huaiyuan Temple.
Ye Kong asked doubtfully, "Could it be that we were alarmed for nothing?"
Wild Roc waved the halberd in his hand. "Let's go take a look at the array entrance."
When they arrived at the entrance of the array formation, the monks were still patrolling. When they saw the three of them rushing over with murderous intent, they were shocked and hurriedly asked, "Esteemed Envoys, may I know what's the matter?"
Wild Roc said angrily, "Where's Fan Qibo?"
"Abbot, he didn't say anything just now. He went out …"
Wild Roc was furious. "Old bald donkey, chase after him!"
Ye Kong and Wild Roc chased after him. The monks still did not understand what was going on. It was obvious that Fan Qibo did not announce it in order to avoid alarming them. Instead, he escaped alone! Wu Yong originally wanted to go out, but he raised his foot and returned. He killed all the evil monks and completely destroyed the defensive immortal array. Only then did he release a cloud and follow.
Fan Qibo was fleeing frantically. Coincidentally, Fan Qibo had made a mistake in the headquarters and was demoted to Huaiyuan Temple to be the abbot. Therefore, he knew many people in the headquarters, including Zen Master San Jie who had been killed previously.
Today, he received a message from San Jie saying that he would come over at night. Therefore, Fan Qibo did not meditate but waited. After calculating the time, he went to the entrance of the temple to wait and chat with San Jie.
However, he did not expect that the person who came was not Zen Master San Jie himself.
However, Fan Qibo was also a cunning old fox. On the surface, he did not reveal anything. After sending the three of them into the house, he took out the immortal sword and looked at it. The immortal sense imprint left by San Jie had disappeared. It was obvious that San Jie was dead!
Therefore, Fan Qibo did not even think about it and did not inform anyone in Huaiyuan Temple. He rode a cloud and left.
Fan Qibo looked back as he flew. He thought to himself, If not for my cleverness, I would not have escaped death today! The safest thing to do was to find Master Wang Yue and the others as soon as possible. At that moment, he could only fly as fast as he could!
However, how could the speed of his normal feet stepping on clouds compare to Ye Kong's Rainbow Cloud?
It did not take long before he saw a seven-colored cloud chasing after him. Under the night sky, it was very eye-catching!
Fan Qibo cried in his heart, 'My life is over!'
"Nefarious monk, where do you think you're going?!" Ye Kong shouted as he sped up. Although Fan Qibo was also a high-grade Golden Celestial, how could he compare to Ye Kong?
Fan Qibo shouted angrily, "Little Ye, don't be so arrogant! I've already sent a message to Zen Master He Jie! I'm sure he has already contacted Master Wang Yue … Zen Master He Jie and the others are Great Overarching Golden Celestials while Master Wang Yue is an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial! All of you can just wait to die! "
"It's uncertain who will die in the future! But now, you're the one who will die! "Ye Kong caught up with Fan Qibo and waved his hand. Fan Qibo fell to the ground.
