Chapter 998 -650: Breaching_2

Fire Buddha’s gaze was somber, and after a brief reflection, he said,

”Retreat to the inner sanctum and defend it fiercely. Destroy everything!”

The others’ expressions changed instantly.

”Big brother?!”

”Destroy everything?”

Yin Thunder Child spoke in a low voice, “Is that really necessary…? That is

Qiao Laoliu also said, “That’s right, big brother, we can still hold the Holy Temple, keep the doors firmly shut; even the Taoist Court Officers can’t break in for the time being

The other Demon Cultivators chimed in:

”That’s correct!”

”If the Taoist Court’s lapdogs come, then let’s kill them all and offer them as sacrifices. Whether we go or stay, it will be entirely up to us

”A bunch of lapdogs, have they been given too much face?”

”Kill them all!”

Fire Buddha shook his head, “You don’t understand

”Gu Changhuai is a tough opponent, different from the usual wine-sacks and rice-bags of the Taoist Court

”If they’ve managed to get in, it means that the Demon’s Cave has already started to leak

”We can’t hold the outer sanctum

”All we can do is hold up inside the inner sanctum.”

”Moreover, just in case, everything in the inner sanctum must be destroyed, we can’t leave behind any traces

”The Holy Temple is of great importance

”Should there be any sign of exposure, it must be completely extinguished; we cannot let outsiders find out

Fire Buddha’s expression was serious, brooking no refusal.

The other Demon Cultivators also took this to heart and nodded in agreement.

Fire Buddha’s expression softened a little, “Clean up the inner sanctum, and then we will find a way to break out. I know you have been hiding here and are a bit suffocated

”After we get out, you may indulge for a while; I won’t restrain you

”After that, we’ll… leave Qian State, where the sky is high and the sea is broad; we will be free and carefree

”Wait for the storms to settle in a few decades, and then come back to settle some old accounts

Hearing “indulge for a while,” the Demon Cultivators’ faces revealed lascivious smiles as they echoed, “We’ll follow big brother’s lead!”

So they took Master Yuan’s corpse and left the secret room to return to the inner sanctum.

Fire Buddha walked at the end.

Just before entering the dark and chaotic inner sanctum, not knowing what was concealed within, Fire Buddha suddenly stopped and looked back at the vast outer sanctum.

A doubt crept into his mind:

”Master Yuan died early… so who was it that discussed Buddhist Law with me?”

Fire Buddha frowned, pondered for a moment, and then turned around and walked into the depths of the Demon Palace.

The doors to the inner sanctum slowly closed, sealing Fire Buddha and the unknown secrets inside.

…

Outside the Demon’s Cave.

Gu Changhuai had gone back to dispatch troops.

Mo Hua was on the stone bridge, protected by Gu Quan and Gu An while dismantling the various alarms and Trap Formations on the bridge.

After dismantling them, Mo Hua sat at the head of the bridge, waiting.

But after a long wait, no one came.

”Does it take this long just to call someone?”

Mo Hua muttered to himself in silence.

According to Gu Changhuai, the Enforcement Leader of the Taoist Court should have been stationed just outside the narrow sky. In theory, they could have assembled in half an hour.

What had happened?

Mo Hua was somewhat puzzled.

Since he had to keep an eye on the Demon’s Cave, Mo Hua could only wait patiently.

After an indeterminate amount of time passed, the other end of the bridge finally became bustling, and the presence of many Cultivators was felt.

”They’re here!”

Mo Hua was invigorated.

Gu Quan was receiving them on the other side.

After a while, the numerous Enforcement Leaders of the Taoist Court began to cross the bridge in batches.

To keep a low profile, Mo Hua hid his figure and watched from the side as they crossed.

However, as he watched, Mo Hua was slightly taken aback.

The number of people… seemed a bit high?

”Uncle Gu said there would be two hundred and eight, so why does it seem like there are more than four hundred now?”

Mo Hua was puzzled.

When the more than four hundred Enforcement Leaders had all crossed the bridge, Mo Hua finally saw Gu Changhuai at the end of the line.

However, Gu Changhuai’s expression didn’t look very good.

Mo Hua approached him and asked in a low voice,

”Uncle Gu, why are there so many people?”

Gu Changhuai’s expression was displeased, “The Xiao family has also arrived

The Xiao family?

Mo Hua realized instantly, “The Xiao family with the ‘smiling tiger’?”

Gu Changhuai was taken aback before realizing who Mo Hua referred to as the “smiling tiger,” he sighed and said,

”Don’t come up with nicknames for no reason

”It’s okay, I’m not saying it in front of him said Mo Hua.

Gu Changhuai had no way to handle Mo Hua.

Mo Hua then asked, “Could it be… that the news has leaked?”

Gu Changhuai’s gaze sharpened, but he did not reply.

Mo Hua raised an arch of his delicate brows and asked,

”Then what’s the purpose of the Xiao family coming here?”

”To serve as an internal mole?”

”To tip off the enemy, or to stir up the situation?”

Gu Changhuai gave Mo Hua a slight glare, “Don’t make unfounded accusations without evidence

Then Gu Changhuai sighed lightly, “This time, the Xiao family probably wants a share of the spoils, to snatch some merit

”Snatch merit?”

”The Demon’s Cave stronghold, hundreds of Demon Cultivators, the murderer Fire Buddha Gu Changhuai said, “Any one of these is a piece of Fat Meat.”

”Now all this Fat Meat is served on a single platter, the Xiao family, wanting to expand their influence in the Taoist Court and promote their Disciples, how could they not be tempted

”Oh Mo Hua nodded.

No wonder people commonly refer to the Cultivators of the Taoist Court as the watchdogs and hawks.

When the dogs and hawks have meat to eat, that’s when they work hard.

Seeing the “grease and gravy,” the Xiao family naturally wanted to act “swiftly and decisively,” taking the initiative.

Gu Changhuai glanced at Mo Hua and wondered,

”Are you speaking ill of the Taoist Court in your heart again?”

Mo Hua was solemn, “Uncle Gu, I am now half part of the Taoist Court; how could I speak ill of it?”
