Yang Cheng didn't even have to lift a finger before crushing the leading Pudu Temple monk into a pulp, the force of which stunned everyone present.
Li Ruowei stared wide-eyed, seemingly unable to believe that Yang Cheng had done this.
When Li Ruowei first met Yang Cheng, she was a little bit of a fangirl.
After all, he was a legendary top-notch ghostwriter, a figure whose strength was enough to overthrow a country.
Throughout the rest of the journey, Yang Cheng was indeed very approachable and even willing to answer some of her questions about cultivation.
This caused Li Ruowei to gradually forget Yang Cheng's reputation and truly regard him as a kind senior.
Only now did she realize that every top-tier swordsman in the Demon Extermination Alliance had earned their position through sheer hard work and bloodshed, with each of them having the blood of both humans and demons on their hands.
Both Bei Zhen and Bai Jie were trembling with fear.
Fortunately, this official didn't intend to kill them, otherwise they would probably be in the same situation as that monk.
Such ruthless and cruel methods would be extremely impactful even among the demon race.
"Senior brother!"
The remaining four monks' eyes turned red, and with a roar, they charged at Yang Cheng.
They were united and fearless, regardless of whether they were Yang Cheng's match.
Yang Cheng was too lazy to waste time with them. He flicked the Soul-Severing Spear in his hand, and a powerful burst of blood energy erupted.
The attack came faster than expected; all the onlookers saw was a flash of blood, and the two monks from Pudu Temple were pierced right through.
At this moment, Old Master Cui also made his move.
He threw out several talismans, and instantly a bucket of lightning struck down, turning the other two monks from Pudu Temple into charred remains.
After entering the Six Harmonies Realm, Old Master Cui's strength also surged.
However, it seems that his skill points were misallocated; while his own talisman and array power is strong, his other skills are pitifully weak.
Seeing Cui Laodao make a move, Li Ruowei's eyes widened again.
This Taoist priest Cui usually seemed a bit sleazy. She had always thought that Master Cui was Yang Cheng's follower, and she wondered why Senior Yang would bring such a weak follower with him.
As a result, Master Cui's strength shocked her once again.
Yang Cheng turned to the two trembling monsters and frowned, asking, "Was the Pudu Temple in Yan Kingdom always this arrogant before?"
Bei Zhen shook his head and said, "Pudu Temple was the number one Buddhist sect in Yan Kingdom before. Although it was arrogant, it had never gone this far."
Since Abbot Cihang suppressed the Blood Demon of Youquan, Pudu Temple has begun to expand rapidly, and the strength of its disciples has also increased dramatically.
Currently, among all the major sects in the Yan Kingdom, none are as powerful as Pudu Temple, so they are avoiding direct confrontation.
"Our demon race is already a scattered bunch. After the Blood Demon of the Nether Spring was suppressed, we no longer have even the strongest nominally. Therefore, we are even more cautious in our actions, fearing that we might be casually killed and thrown into the Demon Suppression Tower."

Yang Cheng nodded and said in a deep voice, "The monks of Pudu Temple died here, and you can no longer stay in this area along the Huai River."
"You'll be safe if I take you to the capital of Yan. Are you willing?"
Bei Zhen and Bai Jie quickly bowed and said, "This humble demon is willing to obey Your Majesty's orders!"
After subduing the two monsters, Beizhen transformed into a giant tortoise and carried Yang Cheng and the others downstream.
But after walking for less than an hour, Old Master Cui suddenly said, "Wait! A powerful aura is coming, comparable to the Fifth Dou Realm!"
Yang Cheng frowned slightly: "Let's hide first."
Old Master Cui set up a talisman array to conceal their presence.
Bai Jie formed a hand seal, and a huge bubble rose from the water, enveloping them. From the outside, it looked like just a stretch of river, completely concealing their forms.
Then Beizhen sank directly into the water, and everyone else seemed to disappear into the Huai River, without any trace of their presence leaking out.
At this moment, on the river, a tall, red-robed monk with a face as if carved by a knife and axe, exuding a fierce aura, was leading more than ten monks from Pudu Temple toward the island in the middle of the river.
When the red-robed monk arrived at the island in the middle of the river with the other monks from Pudu Temple, his expression changed drastically upon seeing the corpse on the ground.
Although Pudu Temple has had conflicts with other sects during its expansion over the past few months, there haven't been any major casualties.
Under the powerful threat of Cihang, other sects avoided confrontation and almost never committed murder.
As a result, all five monks have now died here, which is the biggest loss of life at Pudu Temple in the past few months.
"One person was crushed into a pulp by a simple yet powerful force, and two others were pierced by spears, without even having time to react."
The other two were killed by lightning magic, probably a type of lightning magic using talismans. I could smell the burning smell of the talisman paper, so the person who used it was also quite powerful.
"Does your Pudu Temple know anyone in the Yan Kingdom who is skilled in these two things?"
The red-robed monk looked at the monks of Pudu Temple behind him.
The monks from Pudu Temple looked around, and one of them said, “Your Majesty, there are too many cultivators who use guns and talismans, but I can’t think of anyone who can reach this level and leave them with no chance to fight back.”
The red-robed monk sneered, "I think your Pudu Temple has been developing too smoothly lately, to the point that you're completely oblivious to it!"
It was obvious that the other side killed one of them first, and then the other four, oblivious to their own mortality, joined in and were killed together.
Who gave them the audacity to face an enemy far stronger than themselves without running away? Nonsense!
