Bai Baixue grilled a lot of seafood, but didn't eat any herself. With a somersault, she turned into a golden light on the horizon, leaving only the raging fire and a delicate yet angry roar that was even more explosive than the fire itself...

"Feel free to ask me anything, but..."

Kill Buddha!

Let me kill Buddha!

I must kill Buddha!

Fang Zong watched Bai Baixue leave, then took a bite of an octopus. Hmm, it was tender and crispy. Who knew Bai Baixue's grilling skills were so good?

“I agree,” he said softly.

During the ancient Heavenly Court era, Bai Baixue wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, even beating up the Jade Emperor, but was directly suppressed under the Five Fingers Mountain by Buddha. Fang Zong certainly didn't think that Buddha was much stronger than the Jade Emperor; he could only say that the Jade Emperor showed mercy and didn't really go all out against Bai Baixue.

You must know that the Jade Emperor is the ruler of the Three Realms. He ascended to such a throne after countless eons. How could he be weaker than the Buddha?

Although the Western Paradise of the Buddha is of a much higher status than the Underworld, it is still under the rule of the Heavenly Court...

"I really don't want to get involved in religious matters, but Lao Tzu also said that Buddha is the most loyal supporter of the 'Heavenly Rules'."

Fang Zong disliked the Heavenly Laws because they were different from the law.

Laws are compiled and amended to enable people to live better lives, and the fact that the Heavenly Law is "unchangeable" alone makes it clear that it is not a good thing.

He smiled slightly and continued to enjoy the barbecue. He was full soon after eating. Looking at the pile of food that was still left, which covered a hundred meters of beach, he sighed, "What a waste of food." He looked up and said, "Although you can't finish it all, we should at least waste as little as possible."

"Is this considered a bribe?" A woman wearing a black leather jumpsuit and a butterfly mask walked out.

Behind the woman was a handsome man with a mustache and a Western-style rapier. He smiled apologetically at Fang Zong, then sat down opposite him without saying a word, tore off a crab leg, and ate it while still maintaining aristocratic manners.

"Thank you for the hospitality, and then..." the man with the mustache said with a smile, "It certainly doesn't count as a bribe."

Fang Zong nodded: "The word 'bribery' is usually used between superiors and subordinates. You woman are really bad at speaking. When did I join you and become your lackey?"

"I've considered having you join us before."

The woman in the butterfly mask stood in mid-air and sneered, "However, since your subordinate Murong Zhen is causing trouble everywhere, I dare not let you join us. Also, let me tell you," a biting wind and dark clouds surged around her, with countless blue lightning bolts surging within, possessing unpredictable power, "we are willing to let Murong Zhen go for your sake, but if he continues to instigate internal strife in other countries, believe me, if I want to kill him, he won't be able to escape."

"The one who killed me?" Fang Zong grinned, stood up, and his power erupted instantly.

With a loud 'boom,' the small island, spanning three miles in circumference, evaporated instantly. The pure blue flames burned away the dark clouds and extinguished the thunder. The cold wind emanating from the woman's body turned into heat, and surrounded by the blue flames, she was like a monkey in a cauldron.

"Peak Qingyun Transformation level strength?" the woman exclaimed in surprise.

"That's right."

Fang Zong squinted, preparing to make his move.

It wasn't that he had a bad temper, nor that he had become arrogant because of his strength. Rather, he had heard before that some people were using the speed of the Azure Cloud Transformation to enter the country. Although they hadn't done anything harmful, their swaggering in had already violated the country's territory and the dignity of the Ghost Slayer Corps.

If it weren't for the fact that the Eastern Kingdom has such a long history and so many fiefdoms, Old Master Wang would have sent people to wipe them out long ago...

"Stop, stop, stop!"

The man with the mustache quickly waved his hand.

He snapped his fingers, protecting the surrounding seafood barbecue. After thinking for a moment, he reached out and removed the woman's butterfly mask, revealing a pretty face with three scars.

Although the scars marred her appearance, the woman's face still possessed a distinctive Western beauty, both striking and stunningly beautiful.

Let's be honest with each other.

The man with the mustache pointed to himself, "I am D'Artagnan, the Knight of Regret, the country boy with superb swordsmanship in 'The Three Musketeers.' And do you remember that video of him shooting down a white flower? That soldier was me too… Thinking back, being a musketeer was so much more innocent and wonderful." He then pointed to the woman: "She is Ororo Monroe, the Storm Girl. You might be wondering why she's a top-tier fighter in America, or even a top player in League of Legends, but she actually joined our Peace Summer Camp a long time ago. Haha, Peace Summer Camp, what a childish name, isn't it?"

"And very simple."

"Yes, it's simple. We are simply working hard for world peace. But Murong Zhen under your command—of course, we know he was sent by you—has disrupted the peace of many countries and caused internal strife to break out prematurely. We don't want to see these things happen."

Why wouldn't you want that?

Is war a good thing?

"When it's unavoidable, it's better to have it happen early."

D'Artagnan's attitude was good, and Fang Zong didn't mind explaining a bit. Pointing at Ororo Monroe, he said with a smile, "Since she's Storm, you should know that when a storm is about to come, the stronger the power accumulated, the more terrifying the storm will be. I considered this issue when Murong Zhen was going to do these things, and finally decided... to let him do it!"
