Yang Cheng came to eradicate the White Lotus Cult, not just to kill the White Lotus Holy Envoy and the White Lotus Holy Mother.
However, he was too lazy to deal with the other grunts, and he couldn't kill them all anyway.
The White Lotus Sect has hundreds of thousands of members; even if they were hundreds of thousands of pigs, he couldn't kill them all.
Moreover, Zhenwu Hall needed to establish its reputation, and since Yuwen Du had taken the initiative to help him, Yang Cheng felt embarrassed to refuse some of the credit.
Therefore, apart from the White Lotus Sect's stronghold in Henan County, Yang Chengquan handed over the remaining White Lotus Sect members in other places to Zhenwu Hall and Yuwen Du for suppression.
Yang Cheng himself went to Tian Ding Mountain in Henan Prefecture to personally visit the White Lotus Sect's stronghold and kill the White Lotus Holy Mother.
The news that all nine Holy Envoys of the White Lotus Sect were wiped out in a single day spread throughout the martial arts world, causing an uproar and uproar.
The White Lotus Sect was no unknown organization; in fact, it was already a notorious cult in the martial arts world, predating even the Great Brightness Sect of Holy Duke Zhang Liang.
However, the Great Zhou Dynasty had already carried out a crackdown on the White Lotus Sect when it was founded, so the White Lotus Sect had been hiding underground and accumulating strength.
By this time, the Great Zhou Dynasty was already corrupt and in decline, with war raging everywhere. Only then did the White Lotus Sect openly rebel, and within a month, it had seized the land of the three prefectures of the Great Zhou, becoming famous throughout the world.
But who would have thought that the prestige the White Lotus Sect had built up over a month could be wiped out by Yang Cheng in just one day.
At this moment, inside the White Lotus Sect headquarters on Tianding Mountain.
The White Lotus Mother loved luxury. After the White Lotus Sect occupied Henan County, she mobilized more than 100,000 laborers and craftsmen to build a White Lotus Temple for her on Tian Ding Mountain.
The White Lotus Temple is entirely constructed of white stone and adorned with gold paint, its style blending Taoism and Buddhism, making it extremely magnificent and spectacular.
At this moment, in the central hall of the White Lotus Temple, a misty aura shimmered, but within it, sharp arcs of light flashed, their power attributes extremely violent.
A woman's figure emerged from the misty air.
The woman possessed a captivating and ethereal beauty; the combination of these two distinct qualities created a powerful and alluring allure.
She was tall and curvaceous, wearing gauze pants on her lower body and only a white strapless top on her upper body. The white gauze ribbons around her fluttered, creating a mysterious and alluring effect.
This woman is none other than the current leader of the White Lotus Sect, the Holy Mother of the White Lotus, who claims to be the eldest disciple of the Eternal Mother, an immortal descended to earth.
But at this moment, the White Lotus Saintess, who looked like an immortal descending to earth, had a gloomy and angry expression on her face. She said in a low voice with an ethereal quality, "What are you thirty-six bandits up to?"
"You said the imperial court is powerless to control the uprisings across the land, and the Martial Guard will never intervene. So why have all nine of my White Lotus Sect's Holy Envoys been killed, and we've lost two of our three prefectures?"
A middle-aged man with slightly shifty eyes stared greedily at the alluring figure of the White Lotus Mother, swallowing hard.
He was just thinking about it.
No one knows the true age of the White Lotus Mother before him, but she is certainly much older than him.
“Holy Mother, your blame is completely unreasonable.”
The middle-aged man spread his hands innocently and said, "My brother only said that he could guarantee that the Wuwei Army would never take action. In fact, the Wuwei Army has indeed been holding back and has not made a move."
But who would have thought that Yang Cheng, the Grand Commander of the Zhenwu Hall, would suddenly emerge from seclusion to resolve the White Lotus Sect matter? No one wanted to see such an unexpected turn of events.
Rebellion is definitely risky. If anyone could succeed in rebellion, wouldn't the emperor be replaced every day?
Even back when my thirty-six brothers first rose in rebellion, and in all our years of fighting in the east and west, three of my brothers still died at the hands of Yang Cheng.
The White Lotus Saintess snorted coldly, but she couldn't blame the thirty-six bandits.
After all, the two sides have no vested interests and only have some verbal cooperation agreements.
“You thirty-six bandits had dealings with Yang Cheng, the Grand Commander of the Zhenwu Hall, three years ago.”
"You, Fengling Envoy Meng Tao, are in charge of confidential intelligence within the Thirty-Six Great Bandits. What do you know about Yang Cheng?"
When Yang Cheng was mentioned, Meng Tao's expression immediately turned serious: "That Grand Commander of the Zhenwu Hall is very strong, extremely strong!"
The White Lotus Saintess snorted, "Of course I know he's strong. If he weren't strong, how could he have killed nine of my holy envoys?"
I'm asking you just how strong he is, and whether he has any obvious weaknesses.
Meng Tao shook his head and said, "In the past three years, the situation in the world has changed. Chaos has descended and dragons and snakes have risen from the land. Even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has become much stronger."
Whether they were martial artists or cultivators practicing secret techniques, their strength experienced a surge.
Since Yang Cheng hasn't made a move in three years, I can't judge his true strength.
However, three years ago, the opponent's strength should have been that of a martial arts grandmaster or a powerhouse close to that level.
I don't know what the opponent's strength will be in three years, but judging from his ability to kill nine Holy Envoys of the White Lotus Sect, his strength is probably no less than that of a supreme expert like Luo Fei, the Sword Master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, or Fa Kong, the Abbot of Shaolin Temple. Holy Mother still needs to be careful.
Furthermore, it is difficult to pinpoint the weaknesses in the opponent's cultivation. The opponent possesses a strong physical body, rich combat experience, and a variety of secret techniques, leaving them with almost no obvious weaknesses.

If I had to point out a weakness, it might be that the opponent hasn't used any soul-based secret techniques, so their mental strength probably isn't that strong. That's something we could exploit.
Meng Tao's analysis was based on various information and intelligence, but all those who had seen Yang Cheng use the Soul-Seizing Technique were already dead, so no one knew that Yang Cheng's mental strength was so formidable.
