Stop it, Taoist, Your Fight almost Ruins the DAO!-Chapter 445 - 317: Kill, Evidence and Doubt, The Scholar of Wine_2

""Sect Leader, the batch of drugs has already been transported towards the secret cave in the back mountain,"

At this moment, at the mountain gate of the Zhengyang Sect, on top of a tall green mountain, behind the mountain ridge, dozens of black-clad people carrying coffins were rushing frantically.

Yi Chen opened his eyes, filled with coldness.

Damn it, in just two short days, he’d been sold out three times!

Was this Zeyang City previously known as Northern Mian by any chance?!

Having been sold out three times already, this time it should finally reach a wonderful conclusion, right?

"Alright, you may go now, I’ll be right there!"

After the Daoist had left, Yun Yangzi dropped the curtain and sneered, "Brother, stay put. I will go check on this batch of drugs myself!"

Just then, suddenly a solitary and lofty poetic chant came from the mountain’s base.

"Silent when speaking, speak when silent."

"White clouds are aimless, green mountains possess bizarre bones."

"At midnight the moon shifts, the aged rabbit pushes, the streams flood, and the great whale disappears!"

It’s slower to tell than to see. Behold an elderly Confucian scholar with a crown on his head and a book in his hands, with each step and thought climbing the mountain. In the blink of an eye, he stood before Yun Yangzi.

Wherever the old Confucian passed by, there were Zhengyang Sect disciples twisted in strange postures, their injuries varying in severity.

The shadowy-faced Daoist who had come to see Yun Yangzi earlier had even bled from all seven orifices, having been vibrated to death by him.

"Scholar of Confucianism, I have met Daoist Yun Yangzi. Regarding the disappearance of cultivators in Zeyang City, do you have anything to convey to me?"

The self-proclaimed Scholar of Confucianism had an icy expression as he watched Yun Yangzi.

After his extensive investigations, he had finally confirmed that the Zhengyang Sect was a key link in the case of the disappearing cultivators around Zeyang City.

At this moment, Yun Yangzi, facing the terrifying old man, couldn’t help but feel cold from head to toe.

"Scholar of Confucianism..."

The sudden eruption of a strong aura naturally couldn’t escape Yi Chen’s senses.

He never expected his undercover operation to be thwarted, fearing that someone else would snatch the opportunity.

In an instant, Yi Chen rose from his coffin, effortlessly neutralized the coffin-bearers in black, displayed his domineering body, and frantically dashed toward the mountain’s summit.

The powerful aura that suddenly burst from the back mountain startled the Scholar of Confucianism greatly.

"Righteous energy of heaven and earth, heed my command, appear!"

A flash of clarity in his eyes, he used his astonishing pupil technique.

A purple-golden figure with a ferocious dragon slung over its back and arms tattooed with fierce tigers, as well as a bluish ox at its waist, which was digging at the ground, as if ready to strike the heavens, was seen rushing toward the peak.

The purple divine patterns all over its body reflected the moonlight, emitting a bright demonic glow!

"How dare you! I wondered how a mere Zhengyang Sect could commit such a grand act; turns out there’s a demonic sect villain backing you up!"

The Scholar of Confucianism’s expression changed dramatically. Without waiting for Yun Yangzi to respond, he fully unleashed his Mid-Stage Intercepting cultivation. The book in his hands split into four, slicing Yun Yangzi into a human hog,

Subsequently, the pages floated up and transformed again, attaching themselves to the old man’s entire body, forming a strange armor covered in characters.

Empowered by this majestic force, the Scholar of Confucianism’s hair and beard flared angrily, he unfastened the wine gourd from his waist and, assisted by this profound energy, released a burst from his mouth!

In an instant, a fire dragon surged, sweeping across ten thousand zhang of sky!

The fire dragon, carrying an overwhelming might, rolled back towards Yi Chen. All the while, the Scholar of Confucianism did not forget to roar:

"Demon spawn, take this!"

The fire dragon demonstrated its might, instantly enveloping Yi Chen. For a moment, he couldn’t help but rage furiously!

He had been attacked!

And he, Yi Taoist, was not even the first to strike!

Chilled with anger, did this world even have any sense of reason left?!

What was even more infuriating was the old man’s continuous calling of "demon spawn" as if he was trying to disorder his Daoist heart!

Even though Yi Chen knew it was a misunderstanding, he was resolved to confront him today!

Amidst the roaring, the tips of Yi Chen’s hair ignited by the fire dragon instantly extinguished!

Extreme Origin surged and roared, his aura steadily growing, intensifying, and multiplying!

Preconceptions in people’s hearts are as big as mountains!

He was a Daoist, and is it not reasonable for a Daoist to use a halberd, to be a bit strong?

The Daoist thrust his halberd, influencing the wind and clouds from all directions, aiming to reshape the old man’s worldview.

As the halberd felt Yi Chen’s fiery rage, it strove to shine more brightly, tearing through the sea of fire with its intense light.

The Daoist’s feet trod through the flames of war, clashing violently with the formidable old man.

"Damn it, Hidden Dragon Taoist hold back, it’s a misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding!"

The Scholar of Confucianism was getting anxious, clashing directly with Yi Chen for a few moves before seemingly remembering something and hurriedly shouting!

He even took the initiative to remove the protective barrier formed by the book.

"Can’t hear you! If the Taoist believes he can’t hear, then he can’t hear!"

Yi Chen’s domain unfolded, he sheathed his long halberd, his figure transforming into a streak of light, surrounded by an astonishing aura of martial virtue!

The scholar-ranger’s eyes darted about, his every movement casting oppressive shadows of his fists!

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea!

Yi Chen once again sent the old man flying into the mountainside, turning him into a panda-eyed mess, before his expression finally cleared.

"Ah, my friend, it’s all a misunderstanding, the Taoist was blinded by anger just now, I thought you were a thief from the Zhengyang Sect!"

"I had no idea that you were actually a master from the Confucian school!"

With a taste of his own medicine, Yi Chen transformed into Gusu Murong Chen, returning the favor.

"My friend, how did you recognize me? Could it be that you have investigated me before?" Yi Chen raised an eyebrow and stared at the old man.

"Hidden Dragon Taoist is overly concerned, your reputation now resonates thunderously throughout the land. There are few who excel with the halberd, only the Lord Tan Lang from the heavens and Hidden Dragon Taoist could be called the world’s most formidable with halberd techniques!"

This old fellow is now speaking sensibly, something Yi Taoist likes to hear!

Upon hearing this, Yi Chen magnanimously forgave the scholar-ranger.

Though the man had a fiery temper, he was capable of correcting his mistakes and had even restrained himself, not retaliating after recognizing Yi Chen, who in turn only left him with a pair of panda eyes.

After mutual salutations, the two exchanged a glance and promptly dug out Yun Yangzi, who had been buried beneath the dirt unsettled by the fierce winds.

"My friend, speak up, I can decide to grant you a swift end!"

"Heh, I dare you to lay a hand on this person!"

"I was dealing with the chief steward of the Zeyang City Lord, I believe you understand the implications of this information!"

Yun Yangzi’s eyes flickered with an inexplicable light, defiantly gazing at Yi Chen and his companion.

Half an hour later, Yi Chen and the scholar-ranger looked at each other, silent amidst a pile of letters and evidence.

"My friend, what do you suggest we do about this?" the old panda-faced man solemnly asked Yi Chen.

"If the person behind this truly is Prince Ming, the Taoist believes that a prince who breaks the law should face the same punishment as the common people!"

"Your words are enough for me, my friend. However, since the Taoist is a member of a sect, it would be best for this old man to take the lead," the old panda-faced man mused for a moment before finally exhaling a sigh.

After the misunderstanding was cleared up, he truly admired the formidable Taoist before him, as they shared a common path in striving for the well-being of the world’s people!

He had expended a great deal of effort to find Zhengyang Sect.

The scholar-ranger didn’t know that as long as he was paid, the Taoist in front of him was very reliable in his actions!

"Hidden Dragon Taoist, since this matter involves Prince Ming, and although we now have evidence pointing to the Prince’s chief steward, we still cannot convict the Prince. How about we discuss this further tomorrow at the Youmeng Tower?"

After a moment’s consideration, the scholar-ranger put forth a suggestion.

Yi Chen instantly caught the true meaning behind the words, fully comprehending the scholar-ranger’s intent.

Their raid on Zhengyang Sect today would undoubtedly not go unnoticed by the mastermind behind the scenes.

But that mastermind could never anticipate how much evidence they had obtained from Yun Yangzi.

Nuclear weapons are most potent when not launched, and the scholar-ranger’s suggestion was a move to startle the tiger by striking the mountain!

They needed to provoke the mastermind into action! Once they moved, they would seek to cover up, and in doing so, reveal more flaws.

Gazing at the old ranger with a deep expression, Yi Chen could not tell how much the old man knew, but with matters having developed to this point, he decided to play along with the act.

After all, two men together certainly fared better than Yi Taoist facing it alone!

If the mastermind behind the scenes was indeed Prince Ming Qin Ming, for the sake of his safety at the Great Qin Legal Assembly, he would certainly let this good reputation slip by!

Of course, the man was definitely going to be killed.

After all, he had accepted Que Long’s payment!

After setting a time for their meeting, the two parted ways!

The next morning.

In the tavern.

A whiskered monk who had come into sudden wealth was drinking his morning alcohol, his arms around a voluptuous female practitioner.

He was feeling on top of the world!

Just as the bearded monk considered treating his beautiful celestial companion to another round of exquisite Pibei wine, an unexpected figure appeared before him.

"Leopard Lord, good morning!"

"You..."

Thump!

Yi Chen’s big hand gripped the bearded monk’s hair and slammed his head hard against the ground, causing the voluptuous woman to let out a piercing scream!

With some time still remaining until their noon appointment, Yi Chenzi decided to collect some interest first.

A skilled Taoist is certainly an expert time management master!

This made perfect sense!
