The Emperor of Yan placed great trust in Li Zongdao, and Li Zongdao did not disappoint the Emperor of Yan.
His only concern at this moment was that if they could not completely eliminate Pudu Temple this time, what would they use to resist if Pudu Temple launched a counterattack in the future?
Li Zongdao feared that the retaliation from Pudu Temple would affect the Yan royal family and the entire Yan kingdom.
Although monks are said to be compassionate, Li Zongdao didn't believe it; those monks were always ruthless in their attacks.
Yang Sheng said in a deep voice: "Steward Li, sometimes we can't pursue things too absolutely. If we are stronger than the other side in terms of our strength on the surface, then what are we scheming here for?"
To be honest, I know those monks from outside Pudu Temple. I have quite a few grudges with them. Almost every time, I'm at a disadvantage, but I always end up winning.
Therefore, comparing strength here without actually fighting is meaningless.
Li Zongdao let out a long breath and said in a deep voice, "Very well, since you are so confident, Mr. Yang, we are willing to respect you and obey your orders!"
This is the benefit of fame.
If Yang Sheng were still just an unknown figure, Li Zongdao and Lin Xingsheng certainly wouldn't trust him.
Even if the three of them share the same goal, they would not be willing to follow his orders.
But now Yang Sheng is the top ghostwriter of the Demon Extermination Alliance, and the word "top" carries immense weight.
Yang Sheng's achievements in the Liang Kingdom were also quite remarkable.
The story of Master Yuyang is rarely mentioned because Qingyuan Prefecture is too remote, and many people do not know that such a small place actually hides a great demon who wants to become a god.
But in the capital, Yang Sheng annihilated the demons of the Thousand Demon Cave on Hundred Peaks Mountain, single-handedly fought his way through the entire Red Turban Army to quell the rebellion, killed the demon master Jin Ding Zhenren, and finally overthrew the entire Liang Kingdom.
It can be said that Yang Sheng single-handedly destroyed the strongest cultivation force in the entire Liang Kingdom and overthrew the entire country.
Although Liang was the weakest of the seven kingdoms of Kyushu, Yang Sheng's achievements were still remarkable enough to warrant the attention of Li Zongdao and Lin Xingsheng.
Yang Sheng said in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, we only have one advantage right now, which is that we are in the dark, while Pudu Temple is in the light."
The monk Cihang of Pudu Temple is incredibly powerful, and his other disciples are also quite strong, as are the other monks from outside the temple.
Therefore, we must make good use of this advantage and find a way to secretly eliminate the power of Pudu Temple. When we are confident, we will unite all forces and launch a fair and square attack on Pudu Temple to kill the Blood Demon of Youquan.
I want to start this fire on the demon race's side.
"Demon race?"
Yang Sheng nodded and said, "It's the demon race. When I came to the capital, I took in two little demons and learned some information about the Netherworld Blood Demon in the demon race."
Although the Blood Demon of the Nether Spring is nominally the leader of the demon race in the Yan Kingdom, he actually has no subordinates and has little connection with other demon races.
On the contrary, due to the rampage of the Netherworld Blood Demon, many of the demons in the Netherworld Mountains also suffered.
Furthermore, the subsequent expansion of Pudu Temple and its frenzied hunting of demons caused fear and anger throughout the demon race.
We can use the power of the demon race to lure out the people of Pudu Temple and kill a group of them.
As soon as Yang Sheng finished speaking, Lin Xingsheng, who had always shown great admiration for Yang Sheng, was the first to stand up and object.
"To join forces with the demon race? Absolutely not!"
Mr. Yang, although I still want to avenge my senior brother, how can we, as members of the Demon Extermination Alliance, join forces with the demon race?
Yang Sheng was not angry, but said calmly, "Chief Lin, after being a ghostwriter for so many years, you should know one thing: whether it is a demon or a human, there is good and evil."
Some people are so wicked that they have killed more people than demons.
Some demons only seek cultivation and don't have much desire for blood offerings.
A senior I greatly respect once said, "We must unite all forces that can be united."
"Chief Lin, since we are no match for Pudu Temple right now, why don't we unite more forces?"
Li Zongdao nodded, agreeing that Yang Sheng's words made a lot of sense.
He was a member of the imperial court, and although he was prejudiced against harmful demons, he had no objection if those demons were willing to join forces with them to deal with the people of Pudu Temple.
After all, in the imperial court, alliances and rivalries are common, and former political enemies can become allies in an instant.
Although Lin Xingsheng was still somewhat unable to accept this situation, he sighed and nodded, saying, "Alright, let's do as you say, Mr. Yang."
Yang Sheng nodded and said, "When I go to make contact with the demon race, I ask Steward Li to try to conceal my presence and not let the people of Pudu Temple find out."
Li Zongdao nodded and said, "Mr. Yang, rest assured, although Pudu Temple has a branch temple in this capital, I, Li, have been managing the capital of Yan for so long that I will not tolerate those monks being so presumptuous!"
After finalizing things with Li Zongdao and Lin Xingsheng, Yang Sheng then took Cui Laodao to find Bei Zhen and Bai Jie.
Old Master Cui followed behind Yang Sheng and clicked his tongue in admiration: "This trip has gone very smoothly. Li Ruowei's father and this Chief Lin seem to be very easy to talk to."
This is much better than our time as double agents in Liang, where we were truly surrounded by enemies.
Back in Liang Kingdom, they were in a miserable state. The emperor was tyrannical, and everything was done according to the will of Jin Ding Zhenren. Wu Tianqing, the leader of the Demon Extermination Alliance, was a greedy and wicked bastard.
In contrast, things went much more smoothly for them in the Yan Kingdom, where Li Zongdao, representing the imperial court, and Lin Xingsheng, representing the Demon Extermination Alliance, were both willing to stand by his side.
