When they actually attacked Bailian Temple, Yue Hongling was very lucky that she was cautious enough when she was lurking here to observe and did not take action directly.
This temple looks like there are not many monks, only about a hundred, but in fact they are all elite and powerful, and Fa Yuan and Gong Chaoqun are equally matched. They were caught off guard and rushed to the battle, and they were still able to withstand the full attack of the Zhenmo Division.
You have to come and go, and slowly retreat to the back of the temple.
If it weren't for the army's deployment of hundreds of archers for support, the Demon Suppression Division alone would not be able to clean out the thief temple's den. It's no wonder that Gong Chaoqun was basically unable to do anything in the past.
It was difficult for Yue Hongling to understand why the monks of Bailian Temple were so strong.
The Maitreya Sect is not like the major sects and families who cultivate their seeds from an early age, nor is it like the Demon Suppressor who selects the world's pure martial arts masters to join the iron rice bowl.
Their "soldiers" were basically recruited from gangs and innocent people. Only some of them had their own martial arts skills, and most of them were poor farmers and fishermen, and they were already adults or even middle-aged and old. How did they manage to survive in such a short period of time?
In a short period of time, all these sources of chaos have been trained to the point where they are all at level one or two, and the ones as high as six or seven. How do you train like this?
Are all of them Zhao Changhe?
And because of their teaching of "killing to become a Buddha", these monks are all very brave and brave. They are all people who have killed people with blood on their hands. They are not honest farmers who have never fought with others.
There are countless Maitreya sects with this kind of power all over the south of the Yangtze River. Once something happens, the world will be turned upside down.
Not to mention the whole of Jiangnan, just at this Bailian Temple, Yue Hongling doubted that if Fa Yuan was determined to run away, he might not be able to stop him with the crossbows from outside.
"Huh!" Yue Hongling slashed the throat of a Maitreya cultist with a sword, then covered her shoulders and frowned slightly.
This injury is said to not affect the movement very much, but it is still a bit of a drag in actual combat, and it is worse than expected.
Looking up, Fa Yuan was leading a few core monks in the night, fighting and retreating back to the mountain under the attack of Gong Chaoqun and others.
It was late at night, and it was very easy to be run away once you entered the forest. Zhao Changhe had the most experience in this regard.
We can't let such a leader escape!
Yue Hongling gritted her teeth, endured the dull pain on her shoulder, stood up, and stabbed with her sword.
Fayuan is fighting Gong Chaoqun. He knows that Gong Chaoqun is extremely difficult to deal with, and he may not be able to win alone. Not to mention that when the opponent is so powerful and his own people are in chaos, there is basically no way to fight. But Fayuan has the confidence to run.
Yes, it's dark at night, so I just need to look for an opportunity to crawl into the mountains...
He raised his sword and the dazzling light of the sword enveloped Gong Chaoqun's vital points, which was the start of the Maitreya Sect's secret skill, White Lotus, to purify the world.
Gong Chaoqun's center of gravity shifted slightly, holding his sword and focusing on alert.
He knew how powerful this sword was. Thousands of illusions were attacking at the same time. The lotus petals in the sky and on the earth were all swords. The spiritual platform must be stabilized to be able to withstand such a blow.
However, just as he took half a step back, the sword light suddenly disappeared, and Fa Yuan flew back. It was actually a false move!
"The Demon Suppressor is nothing more than that! Hahahaha... uh..."
A ray of sword light struck under the moon, and under the full moon, Yue Hongling's figure descended like a moon palace, falling straight into the sky.
"Dang!" Fayuan fought hard with a knife, stopped escaping, and cursed angrily: "Yue Hongling! Don't let me fall into my hands one day and have you kneeling on the ground like a dog begging me..."
Before he finished speaking, an arrow shot through the sky like a rainbow and shot through the sky with a terrifying roar, heading straight for his throat!
Fayuan didn't even have time to finish his words. He quickly turned around and the arrow missed his shoulder, scraping off a large piece of flesh and blood.
There was a slight smile on Yue Hongling's lips, and she struck out with her sword again without mercy.
Behind him, Gong Chaoqun had already pierced Fa Yuan's heart with his sword.
How can Fayuan withstand the three-party attack?
Blood spattered on his left shoulder and back at the same time. Fayuan stumbled to the side in great embarrassment, shouting angrily: "Maitreya came to the world and died to become a Buddha!"
Following the words, the other high-level monks who were resisting the Demon Suppressor in the surrounding area muttered at the same time: "Maitreya came to the world and died to become a Buddha..."
"My mother has no life, my hometown is empty..."
Just as Yue Hongling was about to give Fa Yuan another blow, she saw a monk with red eyes rushing towards her like a mad tiger.
Yue Hongling stabbed the opponent's chest with her sword, not wanting to entangle her but intending to force her back. Unexpectedly, the monk refused to dodge and let the sword penetrate her chest, grabbing her sword blade with all her strength.
crazy……
Yue Hongling drew her sword, but she couldn't pull it back for a while.
Looking around, all the monks were crazy.
Everyone used their own flesh and blood to block the sword of the Demon Suppressor, holding on tightly and refusing to let go.
This is simply not a fanatic believer anymore. Fanatic believers know pain after all. They seem to have lost their sense of pain. This is because the secret method has deprived them of their reason, and they have completely become beasts that sacrifice everything for their faith.
Is this their empty home? It is indeed bliss, because there is no pain.
When people withdrew their weapons from these beasts, Fa Yuan had already taken advantage of this moment of chaos to escape into the mountains and forests without a trace.
Gong Chaoqun was so angry that he burst into anger: "Everyone is searching the mountain! He was seriously injured. He can't hide his vitality and can't run far!"
Yue Hongling held her shoulders weakly and took a few breaths. The force of the shock when the sword that intercepted Fa Yuan was parried by the opponent once again aggravated her injury. She had been pressing hard, but now she could no longer suppress it, and the wound began to burst.
Blood gurgled out.
Thinking of the timely support of the arrow just now, Yue Hongling felt some unspeakable emotions in her heart. She raised her head and looked into the temple, looking for Zhao Changhe.
Zhao Changhe did not come to participate in the siege, because he also had a lot of opponents, and his main opponent was his old acquaintance, Nian Hua Tiannu.
When he was shooting the arrow, he had already restrained the flower-carrying goddess. He had just fired an arrow to support her, but before she had time to rush over, the situation suddenly changed and Fa Yuan had left.
Zhao Changhe's dragon bird pressed down on the shoulders of Nian Hua Tiannu, forcing her to kneel on the ground helplessly, sighing: "Fa Yuan said such cruel words to Yue Hongling, you just kneel down on me... There is an injustice, and there is a debtor,"
Why is this necessary?”
Yue Hongling, who was flying over to discuss with Zhao Changhe, paused slightly, looked at him with a complicated expression, and did not pass.
In fact, Zhao Changhe did intend to take revenge on Yue Hongling's behalf, but that was not entirely true.
Because through previous interactions, he felt that the belief of this flower girl was not so fanatical, and she would do some clever things to cover up for herself before, and she was not so dedicated to the sect. This pressure is also a test, if she and other people
Just like a wild beast that voluntarily sacrifices its life, it will not kneel, but will only commit suicide holding the dragon bird.
However, she knelt down, indicating that this was not some fanatical believer who had been brainwashed into being fanatical and dedicated, and could be persuaded to surrender.
But I heard the goddess Nian Hua continue to say: "Our holy religion has always been good to you and wants to absorb you into the religion. Why are you like this..."
Zhao Changhe finally spoke: "Absorb? Become a believer? Are you going to die like these beasts?"
The Flower Nian Girl was startled, and whispered: "You can't... As a hidden dragon, you have unlimited potential. The teacher only wants to cultivate you, which is different."
"It's no different. I sent you to dress up as a Yue girl to "preach" to me. Isn't it hiding the idea of secret control?"
Nianhua Tiannu said: "The degree is different...forget it, I have nothing to argue with if you think so."
Zhao Changhe said: "It's not that I want to debate scriptures with you, but I think you are different from them. You have not been brainwashed into fools and lunatics and can communicate. Let me put it bluntly, Fa Yuan is not injured now.
He may have escaped under Gong Chaoqun's encirclement and suppression. If you can't find him, it means there must be a secret cave or secret passage hidden in the mountains. I highly suspect that everyone is still searching in the mountains and the others are already several miles away."
The Huahua Tiannu's eyes moved slightly, a little surprised.
Zhao Changhe said: "So I guessed it right? It's impossible that the Demon Cult's lair that has been running for so long does not have some secret cave or something like that. As long as you tell me where this secret passage is, I can make the decision to let you live.
You can change your appearance and live somewhere else in the future, and don't mess with the Maitreya Cult anymore... Seeing the fate of these people, you really don't have any hesitation? You usually only work as a toilet, but if something goes wrong, go and die, I sigh for you just thinking about it."
Nian Hua Tian Nu was very surprised: "You... you can torture me severely, or even treat me as cruelly as Fa Yuan did to Yue Hongling. Why do you let me go and persuade me to be a good person instead?"
Zhao Changhe's old face was slightly red again, and his voice was low: "You... once gave me a boost, hugged her, and gave her a nice sip."
The flower-carrying goddess' eyes widened, her frightened expression of being captured was almost gone, and she almost stopped laughing.
Zhao Changhe became angry: "Speak quickly, or I will really torture you!"
"It doesn't have to be like this." The Flower Goddess smiled and said, "Not only do I know where the secret passage is, I can even take you there right now."
Zhao Changhe wondered: "So easy to talk to?"
"Because you are right, I don't want to end up like them in the future." The Flower Niannu smiled, and her voice became a little more charming: "And... you are very cute. The bloodthirsty Shura in people's hearts, actually
He is such a little brother... Besides, I am not a toilet person..."
"What does it have to do with me?" Zhao Changhe felt a little embarrassed and subconsciously looked around, but was shocked to find Yue Hongling standing not far away, listening.
Zhao Changhe: "...when did you come?"
"Just got here." Yue Hongling walked over expressionlessly, and kicked the flower goddess for some unknown reason: "Where is the secret cave? Tell me quickly."
Is this really just here?
Zhao Changhe tilted his head, pretending not to guess.
The goddess Nianhua smiled and said: "Actually, there are underground secret caves and secret passages in the temple, which are used for secret rituals and to lead to the back mountain for escape. You came suddenly, and they had no time to enter the secret passages in the temple, so they had time to retreat.
Go to the back mountain. On the contrary now, if he enters the secret passage from the back mountain, he will come out of the temple instead. If you focus on searching the back mountain, he will really run away when he comes out from here."
Zhao Changhe and Yue Hongling looked at each other, and the slight embarrassment in their hearts was instantly thrown away.
The Nianhua Goddess added: "By the way, there are many restoration things down there, and the means of restoring the Holy Religion are far beyond your imagination. I suggest you not to give him a chance, but to do it as soon as possible."
