All around were countless blood-red cocoons wriggling, occasionally bursting open and transforming into worm-like creatures that merged into the Buddha's body.
But Yang Cheng could clearly see that the outermost cocoons were somewhat transparent, and upon closer inspection, they revealed human figures inside!
Yang Chang breathed a sigh of relief. He was now certain that all the missing people from Miao territory were here, all of them transformed into flesh cocoons, becoming nourishment for the Blood and Flesh Buddha!
"Now that the Grand Commander has arrived, why is he still hiding?"
A voice instantly resounded throughout the underground space, echoing everywhere.
Holy Duke Zhang Liang descended from mid-air, stood with his hands behind his back, and landed on the head of the flesh-and-blood Buddha.
Zhang Liang was dressed in a black robe and wore a pure white mask with two vertical eyes on his forehead, which looked extremely strange.
"You knew I was coming?"
Yang Cheng also jumped down, calmly gazing at the mysterious Holy Duke Zhang Liang.
Sheng Gong Zhang Liang pointed to the fleshy calluses below and said, "Grand Commander, do you know that these people actually died because of you?"
If you had taken your time to deal with the Golden Horde and the Northern Jurchens, giving me enough time to nurture the Holy Ancestor's physical body, I wouldn't have forcibly used all the believers and living beings in the Miao region as nourishment to feed the Holy Ancestor's physical body.
They are all loyal believers of my Great Brightness Sect, some of whom are even disciples I have trained for several years, doing many things for me.
If I had a choice, I truly wouldn't want to use them to nourish the Holy Ancestor's physical body.
Yang Cheng felt a chill run down his spine.
No wonder there wasn't a single disciple of the Great Brightness Sect here except for Holy Duke Zhang Liang. It turns out they were all fed to this monster by Zhang Liang. That guy is truly ruthless.
"Why are you so sure that after I deal with the Jurchens of the North and the Golden Horde, I will definitely come looking for trouble with your Great Brightness Cult?"
For a baseless conjecture, you personally destroyed the Great Light Cult, which you had painstakingly built over several years. You truly are a madman.
"A madman? Being a madman is better than being inexplicably killed by you outsiders!"
Suddenly, the Holy Duke Zhang Liang burst into wild laughter, and with a wave of his hand, two corpses fell from the sky.
"Do you recognize them? Aren't you people from other realms here because of my Great Brightness Sect?"
You call yourselves gods and Buddhas, arbitrarily interfering in the rise and fall of dynasties and trying to make this world operate according to your wishes.
Unfortunately, they were all weak and incompetent, nothing more than ants!
Three years ago, I never imagined that you, Yang Cheng, the Grand Commander of Zhenwu Hall, would also be a person from outside the region.
It wasn't until the Holy Ancestor issued his warning that I became certain that you, Yang Cheng, also come from beyond this realm!
Looking at the two corpses, Yang Cheng's heart sank.
Yang Cheng didn't recognize one of the corpses, but he did recognize the other one—it was none other than Si Tiancheng, the 'Wandering Spirit Officer' who had fought alongside him against the Tianzhao Society!
The opponent was a strong person even among those at the Seven Star Realm, but unexpectedly, he died at the hands of the Holy Duke Zhang Liang.
The Great Zhou World does not belong to Yang Cheng alone; other reincarnators will also be arranged by the Heavenly Reincarnation to enter it and perform tasks.
The arrangement of the Great Zhou world and the cycle of reincarnation should prioritize stability, ensuring the continuation of the Great Zhou dynasty, and then striking down forces like the Thirty-Six Great Bandits and the Holy Duke Zhang Liang, which rose to power by relying on external forces.
Therefore, those who enter this place will definitely be assigned to deal with forces such as the Great Light Cult.
Si Tiancheng, who helped Wei Xingyuan resolve the Tianzhao Society together with Yang Cheng, should have entered the Great Zhou world earlier than Yang Cheng.
Of course, in the main world it might only be a month or ten days earlier, but in the cycle of reincarnation it could be several months or even a year or two earlier.
Most importantly, the Holy Duke Zhang Liang actually knew about the existence of the Reincarnators, and the so-called Holy Ancestor he worshipped was even able to send him a warning, telling him to be careful.
So what level of existence is this Holy Ancestor?
Fortunately, during this mission, Yang Cheng stumbled upon the fact that he left the Great Bright Sect to be dealt with last, and his own strength was also raised to the Six Harmonies Realm.
Otherwise, if Yang Cheng had come to deal with the Great Brightness Sect when he was at the Seven Star Realm, even if he wasn't in mortal danger, he would definitely have been humiliated.
Si Tiancheng was unlucky. He was quite strong, and the potential of the Youyi Lingguan inheritance was also huge. He still had a great chance to advance further in the future.
If he had entered the Great Zhou world later, he might have met Yang Cheng. At that time, the two of them could have joined forces to complete the mission based on their friendship from fighting side by side, instead of dying here inexplicably like this.
