Yang Xiao is familiar with these two individuals. When investigating Granny Hong, Yang Xiao had t Elder Yang. The two shared a good relationship. To be able to hold the position of Deputy Captain of the Provincial Law Enforcent Team, one must indeed possess true ability, undoubtedly making him a Ghost-level Apostle.
Xin Xiu’s aunt as the leader of the Dark Army in Rongcheng, likely also stepped into the Ghost-level. With these two presiding over, coupled with himself and Qu Muzhi, Yang Xiao confird the advantage was with them.
Several hours later, in the wee hours of the morning, at a secluded siheyuan far from the Lin’an Patrol Office, various groups converged, led by Nalan Shuo, Elder Yang, a Dark Army female, and Yang Xiao. The four of them each took a side, gathering around a square table.
Choosing this location for the eting was also for safety’s sake. Elder Yang’s arrival was highly confidential, not even known to Huang Guozhao of the City Center Official Residence or Qu Muzhi, who were both from the sa Patrol Defense Office, with only Nalan Shuo and Yang Xiao from Lin’an Patrol Office being privy to it.
"Everyone is present, let’s discuss the situation," Nalan Shuo, firmly seated in the main position, said. He is one of the two supre commanders of the Rongcheng Patrol Division, with an administrative level and authority even slightly overshadowing Elder Yang present.
Upon hearing this, the woman’s expression turned serious, and she nodded slightly, "According to reliable intelligence, the number of people secretly infiltrated by the Evil Cult of Resentnt this ti is not small, with nearly 30 mbers. Among them, there are three individuals who truly deserve our attention."
"It has been confird that among these three, two are from the Resentnt Sect’s Wounded Door. Wounded Door, being one of the Upper Three Gates, has nurous skilled cultivators. The two who have co this ti are extraordinary, one being the Vice Sect Leader of Wounded Door, and the other a well-recognized old Venerable One in the sect. If these two join forces, even ordinary Ghost-level Apostles might not be their match."
"The most troubleso now is this third person, up to now, we have no exact information about her, only know she’s a woman. Additionally, she is not a mber of Resentnt Sect, we don’t know where they found such a skilled person."
"How about their plan, is it clear?" Elder Yang sat upright, his presence commanding respect without anger.
"We can’t confirm completely, but judging from their movent trajectory, it seems they are planning to feign action in the east and strike in the west, causing so disturbances near Rongcheng first to attract our attention, then deploy an elite squad to carry out a decapitation strike against Director Nalan and Director Yang, to avenge a previous grudge," the woman said with a raspy and firm voice.
Hearing this, Yang Xiao felt puzzled, as the target of Resentnt Sect should be him, yet Director Nalan was also involved.
But this was not the ti to ask questions, Yang Xiao kept silent and continued to listen.
After a pause, the woman continued, "Now, we have already located the Vice Sect Leader of Wounded Door and that top-tier Venerable One. Both have sneaked into Rongcheng, each leading a team and hiding separately, but the whereabouts of that unknown female master remain unclear."
"Can we confirm her location before sunrise?" Nalan Shuo looked at the woman and asked.
After a mont of hesitation, the woman shook her head, "It’s difficult, further investigation might risk exposing our informants."
"Then there’s nothing much to say, we must strike first to gain the upper hand. Before they can react, gather our forces and annihilate this group of despicable evil cultivators from Resentnt Sect," Elder Yang, his hands thick with calluses, clenched hard on the table.
"I agree with Elder Yang’s plan. These people will not risk lurking in the city for too long. I estimate that by dawn at the latest, they will act. We must take action before them," Nalan Shuo said.
This eting was organized by Nalan Shuo, he initiated it, but when it cos to how to conduct the command, without a doubt, Captain Yang Lao, with his extensive experience, took up the role of the commander of this operation.
The eting was brief yet efficient. Soon, an action plan was established, dividing their forces into four groups. Captain Yang Lao led the team to eliminate the Vice Sect Leader of Wounded Door, the woman led her Dark Army to clear out the top-tier Venerable One, Nalan Shuo stayed behind to oversee and coordinate, convening various team leaders under the Patrol Defense Office, and together with Yang Xiao, searched the entire city to hunt down the unidentified female evil cultivator, to execute on the spot once found.
With Qu Muzhi’s support, even if the opponent was a Ghost-level Apostle, the two of them would not necessarily be at a disadvantage. He was very confident in his and Qu Muzhi’s strength.
To be cautious, before the woman left, she also left a team to protect Yang Xiao and Nalan Shuo, which also showed her imnse confidence in her own abilities.
After Elder Yang and the woman left, Nalan Shuo was also going to return to the Lin’an Patrol Office, but was stopped by Yang Xiao, "Director, don’t go back, I’ll go back."
"Joke, as the Director of the Patrol Defense Office, am I supposed to be so scared by a few evil cultivators that I daren’t even go ho? I’ll sit in my office today and wait for them," Nalan Shuo, putting on his coat, strode towards the door, with Yang Xiao quickly following.
That night, under Nalan Shuo’s supervision, the security level of Lin’an Patrol Office was unprecedentedly high. At first glance, it might look ordinary, but it’s more akin to a fortress within. Yang Xiao and the Dark Army Captain, guarding the two entrances of the Patrol Office, with specialized Dark Army mbers along with Beibei, stationed outside Nalan Shuo’s office, just in case.
As soon as the battle on Elder Yang’s side began, Qu Muzhi imdiately received the order and rushed to Lin’an Patrol Office to rendezvous with Yang Xiao.
Qu Muzhi had just arrived not long ago and hadn’t had ti to explain the situation when an unexpected incident occurred. Nalan Shuo received a distress call from the Director of Luming Bureau, claiming the investigation team of Luming Bureau had lost contact, and that ant everyone.
In a rush, Yang Xiao hurried to Nalan Shuo’s office, the captain of the investigation team of Luming Bureau was an old acquaintance of Yang Xiao, Wu Zhengwu, the two had saved each other’s lives and were very good friends. If it hadn’t been for him, Yang Xiao would have had a life-and-death struggle with Qu Muzhi.
