Whoosh!
The Evil-Subduing Saber, carrying a blade of energy, plunged entirely into the serpent’s brain, instantly seizing its life.
"Still trying to escape." Qin Yuesheng walked over and retrieved the Evil-Subduing Saber. With a casual tremor of his inner strength, he cleared off all the liquids sticking to the blade thoroughly.
"I never thought Cold Mountain Temple had unknowingly beco a lair for intruding strangers, while the local authority hasn’t noticed anything yet." Qin Yuesheng disassembled the serpent’s body, still only gaining a heap of useless body parts.
"Luck’s a bit off." Qin Yuesheng thought to himself, then took out the Spirit Fox’s heart and continued searching for the location of the remaining dark energy.
...
When the serpent was long overdue, the Corpse Eagle and Corpse Bear couldn’t help but feel apprehensive and worried.
"Could sothing have happened?"
"How’s that possible? Apart from the Inner Power Realm martial artists from the Human Race, who else could be a match for the serpent? Besides, Cyan Yang City is such a small place. Other than that Seven Stars prison official, there’s no other Inner Power Realm martial artist."
"What if that Seven Stars prison officer ca looking for us?"
"No, that shouldn’t be. Hasn’t Five Disasters been secretly causing trouble and delaying Cyan Yang City all along? How would that Seven Stars prison officer have the ti to find us here?"
"Better to go out and see just in case."
"What about the Three Corpses Array then?"
"Find three disciples to co in and temporarily hold the fort. As long as we return early to take over, there won’t be any problems."
"Alright."
After that, two figures got up and left the hiding place.
...
"Oh no~ Sobody’s harassing !"
"You, how, how can you be so rude, really, this is outrageous."
A pair of seemingly young couples stood on the road, looking with anger or hostility at Qin Yuesheng standing in front of them.
Just now, when Qin Yuesheng passed by the woman, he teasingly tapped her hip with the Evil-Subduing Saber, and the whole process was seen by the woman’s husband.
But this fellow seed to be a scholar; even though his wife was molested, he didn’t dare punch Qin Yuesheng, instead criticized furiously.
Qin Yuesheng sneered, casually swung the saber again at the woman’s hip.
"What if I’m rude? I enjoy being rude, and if you don’t take this little beauty away from Cold Mountain Temple soon, when my desire peaks, I will definitely crown you with a cuckold’s cap."
"You!" The man said angrily, but seeing the saber in Qin Yuesheng’s hand, seeming to be skilled in martial arts, he held back his anger, flicked his sleeve, and quickly dragged the woman out of Cold Mountain Temple.
As the two left, Qin Yuesheng smiled with satisfaction and said, "Buddhism always says saving one’s life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. My rit for saving lives today is great."
With so many intruding strangers inside Cold Mountain Temple, Qin Yuesheng figured he’d inevitably hurt soone when he clashed with them later, so he ca up with a plan to drive away all the incense burners from the temple.
But people, they don’t listen to reason when you advise them kindly. After hitting a few dead ends, Qin Yuesheng had no choice but to sacrifice his image and resort to unconventional thods.
Seeing won, he’d pose as a dandy to tease and harass.
Seeing n, he’d purposely provoke and lightly punch them.
A double approach, and it worked quite well—before long, he had successfully driven away more than ten incense burners.
Walking a short distance further, he passed a side hall, unsure of which Buddha or Bodhisattva was worshiped inside.
Qin Yuesheng saw an old lady standing by the incense burner outside the hall, burning incense.
He imdiately went over and prepared to tap her.... shoulder with his saber, after all.
"Old lady, why co alone to burn incense?" Qin Yuesheng asked, feigning malice.
Slam! Slam! Slam!
The Evil-Subduing Saber tapped rather soundly on the old lady’s shoulder.
"What do you want?" The old lady asked with a strange face.
"Hehehe, in broad daylight, in this world full of sunshine, what do you think I want to do? Quickly leave the Cold Mountain Temple, or you’ll regret it."
"Well..." The old lady hesitated suddenly.
"Didn’t hear ? Hurry up and leave, or I’ll rob you!"
"You look like my dream lover. I want you to hit again."
"Hiss!" Qin Yuesheng gasped sharply.
Amazed!
"In broad daylight, in this world full of sunshine, at your age, you dare to conduct yourself disrespectfully, without decency, have no sha! Quickly roll out of Cold Mountain Temple."
"Young man, I can pay..."
"Scram!" Qin Yuesheng drew his saber.
Seeing the blade drawn, the old lady was imdiately terrified, turning and running out of the Cold Mountain Temple at top speed.
"The world is declining, people’s hearts are not what they used to be." Qin Yuesheng shook his head.
...
After erging from their hiding place, the Corpse Eagle and Corpse Bear imdiately sprinted toward the Arhat Hall, since the serpent went out to check his Inner Core, the only place could be where the Inner Core was stored, Arhat Hall.
However, when they arrived at the Arhat Hall, they did not see any trace of the Corpse Snake, but only discovered the obvious signs of battle inside the hall.
"It seems the Corpse Snake fought with soone here," Corpse Eagle said.
"The outer martial artists of the Human Race are definitely no match for the Corpse Snake. Could the visitor really be that seven-star overseer from Cyan Yang City?" Corpse Bear said with a serious face.
"Let’s observe further. But even if it is that guy, with the strength of the three of us, we are enough to kill him here," Corpse Eagle removed the straw hat from his head, revealing an eagle head covered with brown feathers.
His eyes suddenly lit up with a blue light, and instantly, many scattered footprints appeared on the ground, among which two different sets were most conspicuous.
"These belong to that person, these to the Corpse Snake. Hey! The Corpse Snake’s footprints stop here, he was forced to reveal his true form by that person," Corpse Eagle said in shock.
He knew a bit about the overseer from Cyan Yang City—an Iron Toad.
But even an Iron Toad overseer couldn’t possibly beat the Corpse Snake this badly one-on-one.
Corpse Eagle continued to examine the Corpse Snake’s escape path, and saw that it abruptly ceased outside the hall.
Doesn’t this imply the Corpse Snake is dead?
"Even the corpse is nowhere to be found," Corpse Eagle said grimly.
"How is it? Can you find where the Corpse Snake went?" Corpse Bear asked.
"If my guess is correct, the Corpse Snake should already be dead."
"What?" Corpse Bear was shocked.
He knew the Corpse Snake’s strength, how could it be easily killed by anyone.
"Let’s move, there’s a set of footprints leading away from here. Let’s catch up with them," Corpse Eagle said, looking at Qin Yuesheng’s path, quickly moving forward, followed closely by Corpse Bear.
...
After finally driving away the pilgrims from Cold Mountain Temple, Qin Yuesheng’s actions were soon noticed by the monks and novices within the temple.
They gathered around Qin Yuesheng, glaring angrily, "What do you an by this, benefactor? Why are you driving away the visitors who co to Cold Mountain Temple to offer incense and worship Buddha?"
Qin Yuesheng calmly replied, "There’s a problem here, it’s very dangerous. I advise you to leave quickly, lest you invite disaster upon yourselves."
"Nonsense! Everyone, let’s expel him from Cold Mountain Temple together to prevent him from disturbing the peace of the Buddhist sect," a senior monk shouted, wielding his Zen staff.
Instantly, all the monks drew their Zen staffs, intending to drive Qin Yuesheng out of Cold Mountain Temple.
To be honest, Qin Yuesheng did not want to engage these innocents, but with such hostility within Cold Mountain Temple, as a mber of Seven-Star Watch and a resident of Cyan Yang City, he had to cleanse the area for his hotown’s safety.
Restore peace to Cyan Yang City, eliminating all threats.
Faced with a crowd of monks brandishing staffs, Qin Yuesheng moved, his saber remaining sheathed, using only the scabbard as a weapon.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Under Qin Yuesheng’s blows with the scabbard, one monk after another collapsed, unconscious and unable to rise.
"Have a good sleep, I’ll help you cleanse the temple of evil," Qin Yuesheng said calmly after the last monk fell.
"Such arrogance!"
Just as Qin Yuesheng’s words fell, an elderly voice suddenly ca from the side, and Qin Yuesheng turned to see an old monk slowly approaching.
The person looked kindly and benevolent, like a seasoned monk.
"Benefactor, not coming with goodwill, aren’t you afraid of leaving your life here?"
Qin Yuesheng’s eyes sharpened, quickly taking out the Spirit Fox Eye and placing it before him, seeing a bull-headed phantom above the monk’s head.
"You’re an outsider too," Qin Yuesheng swiftly unsheathed his saber, choosing to strike first.
A few feet of saber energy cut straight towards the monk’s head.
"Moo! Moo!"
The old monk let out a cow’s bellow, and suddenly a series of visible orange-yellow sound waves surged from his mouth, forming an air wave that forcibly halted Qin Yuesheng’s advance.
Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!
To stabilize himself and avoid being blown away, Qin Yuesheng’s legs drove into the temple’s stone floor like steel stakes, gouging out two deep pits.
Yet the sound wave from the monk’s mouth, like a continuous river’s flow, never ceased, making it difficult for Qin Yuesheng to completely stabilize.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Qin Yuesheng, and he opened his mouth to unleash the Soul-Shattering Roar.
"Roar!!!"
The Angry Roar Celestial Venerable appeared, the sound wave of the Soul-Shattering Roar collided with the monk’s waves, though the opponent’s roar was strong, Qin Yuesheng’s was not weak either.
Bang, bang, bang!
Where the two sound waves t, the ground shattered and crumbled, with vast amounts of debris being ground into dust within the waves.
If soone were caught within, one could imagine the terrible fate.
"Hmm?" Corpse Ox was surprised.
While the Corpse Snake might spray venom, Corpse Eagle could see others’ footprints, all gifts of innate talent.
His sound waves were his talent.
Unlike the Human Race with their martial techniques and heart thods, the Ghost Race’s talents were innate.
All these years, it was his first encounter with soone like Qin Yuesheng who could rival his sound waves.
