The Starlight Master displayed his authority, pacing back and forth with a nacing gaze like a hungry wolf, scanning everyone’s faces repeatedly.
He went on about nurous rules.
Then, the main event ca.
"However, since this is undercover work, it naturally cos with rules. If you stir up anger and resentnt here, can it still be called undercover? So, you can’t do things that go against nature and morals, nor can you commit evil deeds. That’s the rule!"
"To avoid everyone forgetting, I specifically found three cases today to perform a little show for you all."
Fang Che pulled on a rope, and imdiately, thud, thud, thud...
About twenty people were dragged out from behind the curtain by him.
Each of them was bound tightly like a ball.
"These are the ones involved in abducting won, drugging them, and forcing them into prostitution... These steal children and make them disabled to beg for money; these are from the Caihua Sect, ruining won’s reputations and promoting it, leading to deaths or selling them when left with no way out..."
Fang Che clicked his tongue, his wolf-like eyes sweeping over everyone sharply, "I’m using facts today to tell you that you cannot do these sorts of things."
As he spoke, with a clang, he drew a Nine-Ring Saber.
Under the extrely fearful gazes of the crowd.
The Starlight Master said calmly, "Watch carefully, rember this show for the rest of your life!"
Then, he suddenly raised his sword.
The blade glead as it fell.
Thud, thud, thud, thud...
Blood spurted sky-high!
Twenty-four heads neatly tumbled to the ground.
Instantly...
All the shopkeepers below were dumbfounded.
My goodness... this show... is real killing?
Everyone was too shocked to even scream, under the Starlight Master’s wolf-like fierce gaze, not daring to make a sound, just covering their mouths tightly, their legs shaking violently, and so felt a warmth in their pants... quietly wetting themselves.
Everyone had a common thought: You call this a performance?
It must be said, you’re absolutely right, this show is indeed... unforgettable for life.
"We are all law-abiding citizens, how could we do such things against morality and conscience, right?"
"Right!"
"So, because they did things against conscience, they’ve t their retribution today, correct?"
"Correct!"
Fang Che smiled warmly and kindly said, "Did you all rember today’s show?"
"Rembered!" they answered in unison.
"Very good, you are all good children!"
The Starlight Master wiped the blade on the clothes of the corpses on the ground and said, "Get a few people to dispose of the bodies, you know how to handle it without teaching, right?"
"No need, no need."
"Additionally, I’m setting a rule for you. Since it’s a branch, we can’t have no one. You thirty-six families will be divided into four groups of East, South, West, and North, each family providing one grandmaster-level person, dividing into four teams, rotating. One round every half month!"
"If absent, behead! If late, behead! If negligent, behead! If exposed, behead!"
The Starlight Master delivered a series of beheadings with resolute authority.
Everyone below listened, trembling legs, looking at the scattered heads, involuntarily wanting to pee.
"It’s not that I’m cruel or unreasonable."
The Starlight Master earnestly said, "Gentlen, we must be diligent in our work! We do this for the great cause of our sect, be diligent and conscientious, add bricks and tiles for the grand endeavor! As the saying goes, everyone rowing will set a big ship in motion."
"You nine families, East, you nine families, West, you nine families, North. The remaining you nine families... huh?"
"Understood, we’re the South! The South, yes!"
"I don’t care whether it’s difficult or not. There’s good news to inform you, all the incense halls under our branch have been cleared. For the ti being, this Squad Leader has no interest in recruiting anew, so we’ll choose from among your families."
"You have three months. Establish four incense halls; and each incense hall will be born from among you; choose the best for appointnt; you’re aware of the benefits and advantages of the incense hall, not to ntion just those elixirs... hehe..."
Instantly, a light appeared in the eyes of the shopkeepers from the thirty-six stores.
Incense hall!
We actually have this opportunity.
"Moreover, does anyone of you know about the bases of other sects?"
"Truly don’t know, they’ve all been swept away."
"No problem, I’ll investigate."
"Also, in the future, if you encounter soone from other sects inquiring about our branch, bring them over."
"Bring them here, I’ll handle it."
"Dismissed!"
"Anything needing my handling, just place it on the desk."
"Leave a few people to clean up, this blood really stinks."
In a flash, the Starlight Master left, leaving a sinister warning: "Be obedient! Don’t do things that will make unhappy. I must tell you, I’m extrely narrow-minded."
...
The thirty-six shopkeepers felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
It wasn’t until long after this ruthless Starlight Master left that anyone dared to move.
Exchanging glances, they all saw the mutual feeling of crying without tears. The moonlight shone, making their faces deathly pale.
The heads on the ground were ssily scattered like waterlons, the blood slowly congealing, a foul scent filled the atmosphere.
"Clack, clack, clack..."
All their teeth were chattering.
Their legs trembled.
Finally.
Soone began conversing: "This... is our first ti eting, an honor... What do you think of our new Squad Leader?"
"Wise and courageous! Wise and courageous!"
"...Haha, I thought the sa."
Soon, everyone began diligently cleaning.
Especially the corpses, quickly disposing of them, leaving them here gave a chilling feeling.
On this cold night, everyone was drenched in sweat, working with extra effort.
Everyone’s heart was a mixture of complex emotions.
This new Squad Leader is truly daring, the previous Branch Leader never showed up, just collected monthly salaries using various marks, directing tasks, and everything ran smoothly. Everyone never t each other either.
No one knew anyone’s true identity.
But this Starlight Master differed.
Ca straight with openness, even organized a eting!
Holding a eting!
It was like the Guardian Hall.
Now everyone’s identities were exposed to one another!
Moreover, the thod was extrely brutal!
One mont he’s mild-mannered, the next he’s killing, his mood unpredictable, and he seems to derive so enjoynt from killing and torturing people.
When he said to perform a show with those twenty-four, everyone genuinely believed there would be a performance.
Perhaps a whipping session.
Who would have thought the shiny blade would fly out the next mont?
The splattering blood, rolling heads, and the cruel smile on the Starlight Master’s face, that cold gaze landing on them...
Were still vivid in their minds.
Everyone was heavy-hearted.
A clear premonition: The days ahead would likely be very difficult.
The shopkeepers were burdened with worries.
And the nine grandmasters left for rotation were even more apprehensive.
Worried on one hand about attracting the Guardian Hall so blatantly, and yet having to follow the Branch Leader’s command to open up and present a liveliness showing people live there.
All sorts of furniture, lanterns, etc., began to move inside.
The office’s location also needed reorganizing.
Everyone carried a piece of white cloth in their pocket daily, and whenever they saw a spot, they instinctively polished it, fearing the Squad Leader might co, dissatisfied with hygiene, and explode in rage. Dying for that would be unjust!
This was truly soone who would find reasons to kill even when none existed.
...
It was already dawn.
Fang Che was energetically practicing in the yard, feeling pleased after last night’s killing spree.
Sword, Spear, Saber, Halberd, he wielded fiercely, the sharp strength, and surging killing aura made Ye ng inside the room a bit frightened.
Fang Che’s improvent was really too fast!
Just while thinking, she suddenly rubbed her eyes.
Could it be that my eyes are blurry?
Unexpectedly, a folded piece of paper appeared out of thin air in mid-air before her eyes.
Then it slowly descended.
Ye ng was instantly shocked.
Turning her head, she noticed Fang Che was fully focused practicing twenty yards away in the Martial Arts Arena!
Where did this paper co from?
Panicking, she glanced around.
This piece of paper had already landed in front of her.
Then, it lay there quietly.
Ye ng gritted her teeth, slowly reached out, picked up the paper, and nervously opened it for a look.
She was imdiately taken aback.
Inside, it detailed all of Fang Che’s movents!
Where he went last night, whom he t, how many people he killed, where the sub branch was established, how Fang Che did it, and what his new alias was, etc...
All clearly and precisely outlined.
Ye ng even felt, even if Fang Che himself wrote it, it wouldn’t be this clear.
But what’s going on? Who sent this?
Who is this person?
She held the paper tightly close to her chest, clutching it with her small hands, her heart racing.
She had never seen anything quite so eerie in her life.
After thinking it over, she bit her lip and reported the matter along with the note.
"...Very strange, it just suddenly..."
...
The intelligence of Yueying was sealed and sent directly to Fan Tiantiao by soul secret technique with no deviation, as Ninth Lord allowed no one but himself to see it.
Very soon.
Guardian Headquarters.
"Ninth Lord, intelligence with Moon Seal mark."
"Send it at once."
A mont later, Dongfang Sansan looked at the intelligence docunt, a strange expression appearing on his face.
There was a hint of a wry smile.
This expression hadn’t appeared on Dongfang Sansan’s face in many years.
Muttering, "No wonder that guy was so eager to get Divine Attribute tal, turns out he’s got such a thing nearby..."
He then sighed again, looking at the intelligence with a bemused expression.
"Crude, such a crude thod... It’s a wonder that such a thod could successfully infiltrate!"
Dongfang Sansan’s face showed a rich array of emotions: "I told you to establish a second channel with Ye ng, and you directly ca up with passing left hand to right hand... This operation is simply astonishing. Think, use your brain... where’s your brain?"
Then, Dongfang Sansan imdiately set out to deduce where the flaw in this thod lay, only to discover after a long analysis that...
"There actually isn’t a flaw!"
Dongfang Sansan was astounded.
Staring wide-eyed, he carefully reanalyzed it, finally confirming.
No flaw!
It just needed one ghostly being that was incomprehensible to humanity to make everything flawless!
Besides being too direct and too crude, as long as Fang Che himself didn’t expose it, everything was seamless!
"My goodness! Such injustice!"
