Just as the White Lotus Mother was pondering something, a loud booming sound suddenly came from outside, as if an earthquake had struck the entire White Lotus Temple.
The White Lotus Saintess sensed the commotion outside, and her expression immediately darkened: "This is outrageous! This Yang Cheng actually dares to come here alone!"
Although Yang Cheng had killed nine of the White Lotus Sect's envoys, the sect still held some influence in Hebei and Qinghe counties, not to mention that Henan county was entirely White Lotus territory.
As a result, Yang Cheng was so arrogant that he came to attack the White Lotus Temple all by himself. Obviously, in his eyes, the other members of the White Lotus Sect were like chickens and dogs, and he didn't need to take action himself. That's why he came to attack the White Lotus Temple directly.
Knowing full well that she, the White Lotus Saintess, was here, and that the elite of the entire White Lotus Sect were also here, Yang Cheng still arrogantly came to her door. He didn't treat her, the White Lotus Saintess, like a human being at all.
Suddenly, the White Lotus Saintess looked around and discovered that Meng Tao had disappeared without her noticing.
It is clear that he fled before Yang Cheng began his attack on the White Lotus Sect.
"Damn it! I knew these bandits from humble origins couldn't be trusted!"
The White Lotus Saintess cursed under her breath, her body shimmering with aura, and her figure vanished instantly.
At this moment, in front of the White Lotus Holy Temple of the White Lotus Sect, Yang Cheng's body was covered in blood and evil energy, and the Yin energy on his Soul-Severing Spear stretched for dozens of feet, frantically blasting towards the temple gate.
Occasionally, some elite members of the White Lotus Sect would try to stop them, but they would be torn apart by that enormous power in an instant.
As Yang Cheng's black and red aura surged into the sky, his spear swept across like a raging dragon, and the gate of the White Lotus Temple shattered completely with a loud crash!
Just then, a misty fog suddenly appeared around Yang Cheng.
The mist was ethereal and otherworldly, and suddenly a slender, white arm emerged from it, striking Yang Cheng with a palm.
Wherever the palm strike reached, it seemed as if all power was absorbed into another space, even the Yin energy and bloodlust surrounding Yang Cheng were drained away.
The White Lotus Sect's secret technique, the Vacuum Great Hand Seal!
Yang Cheng didn't even turn his head, and threw a punch backward first.
A powerful surge of qi and blood erupted suddenly, striking the snow-white, jade-like palm and producing a loud bang.
Yang Cheng turned around and swept his spear horizontally, the sinister and bloodthirsty power instantly tearing through the misty fog, and the figure of the White Lotus Holy Mother slowly emerged in the distance.
"This is actually quite interesting!"
A mysterious smile appeared on Yang Cheng's lips.
The White Lotus Saintess was stronger than he had imagined; she had not only reached the Seven Star Realm, but had even reached the peak of the Seven Star Realm.
A seductive smile appeared on the lips of the White Lotus Holy Mother as she looked at Yang Cheng and said softly, "Lord Yang, are you still not satisfied with killing nine of my White Lotus Sect's Holy Envoys? Do you have to completely annihilate my White Lotus Sect before you are satisfied?"
My White Lotus Sect has no direct conflict with your Zhenwu Hall. Now that the Great Zhou Dynasty is corrupt and decadent, why should you risk your life for that newly enthroned emperor?
Destroy my White Lotus Sect, and when the cunning rabbit dies and the hunting dog is cooked, how could the Great Zhou Dynasty tolerate such a powerful person as you overriding the imperial power?
How about this: Lord Yang, if you spare the White Lotus Sect a chance to survive, we, the White Lotus Sect, are willing to offer you all the money and treasures we have plundered from the three prefectures.
"Then, when the White Lotus Sect disappears back underground, wouldn't it be better for you, Lord Yang, to take your credit and report back?"
The White Lotus Saintess's words were half true and half false, but one thing was true: she did not want to fight Yang Cheng to the death.
Even though all nine Holy Envoys died at Yang Cheng's hands, she could still nurture them.
As long as the White Lotus Sect is given a sliver of hope, its terrifying ability to spread will naturally allow it to grow stronger once again.
It's not worth fighting to the death with a powerful expert like Yang Cheng whose strength is unknown.
Yang Cheng pointed the Soul-Severing Spear at the White Lotus Saintess and said calmly, "It's very moving; I almost believed it."
Unfortunately, you miscalculated one thing: I never cared whether the Great Zhou court would play the "discard the bow after the birds are gone, cook the dog after the rabbit is dead" trick.
Only a weak person who lacks confidence in their own strength would consider such a low-level tactic as "raising a bandit to enhance one's own power."
Sima Yi would refrain from entering the empty city out of consideration for the Wei royal family, thus allowing the enemy to grow stronger.
Would Cao Cao refrain from destroying Yuan Shao because he was wary of Emperor Xian of Han? That's a joke!
The instant Yang Cheng finished speaking, boundless blood energy surged into the sky around him, his blood and qi surging as if...
The Soul-Severing Spear in her hand trembled repeatedly, its tip gleaming with sharp light. The spear's momentum carried boundless yin evil and bloodlust, like a long dragon, rushing straight towards the White Lotus Holy Mother!
