At this moment, two disciples were leaning against the door, and on the back of their hands was a blood-stained tiger tattooed on each of them.
However, as midnight approached, there were very few pedestrians on the street.
Therefore, both of them inside the door were leaning against the door in a lazy posture.
"Hey! Have you ever heard of that woman named Xue Qianxun from the Sun Moon Cult?"
"Nonsense, who in the western part of the Ming Dynasty hasn't heard of this name recently? It is said that Xue Qianxun is extremely beautiful, and everyone who has seen her is captivated. Many people even say that Xue Qianxun's appearance is definitely worthy of being included in Bai Xiaosheng's Hundred Flowers List. It's just that I don't know why Bai Xiaosheng didn't include Xue Qianxun in the Hundred Flowers List."
"Ah! If I could just get my hands on a woman like that, it would be worth it for the rest of my life."
"I advise you to think less about such things. Xue Qianxun is just like the Sun Moon Cult. Although they are both stunningly beautiful, they are ruthless. Moreover, Xue Qianxun seems to have also cultivated Dongfang Bubai's Sunflower Manual. She is only at the early stage of the Innate Realm, but it is said that she has killed martial artists at the late stage of the Innate Realm. To plot against her is simply courting death."
"Speaking of the Sun Moon Cult, I seem to remember that it was supposed to be seven days ago that we paid taxes to the Sun Moon Cult, but I don't think I've noticed anyone handling this matter in the past few days?"
Upon hearing this, the taller and more agile disciple on the left looked at the person beside him in astonishment and said, "You don't know?"
When asked by the taller, thinner disciple next to him, another disciple from the Tiger Saber Sect asked in surprise, "What do you know?"
Upon hearing this, the tall, thin disciple looked around a few times, and only after confirming that there were no outsiders nearby did he lower his voice to explain.
"Just last month, my Tiger Saber Sect did not pay taxes to the Ming Cult."
Upon hearing this, another disciple of the Tiger Saber Sect glared and said, "They didn't pay taxes? Are you crazy? Has the sect leader gone mad? In the past few months, Dongfang Bubai wiped out thirteen second-rate forces and one first-rate force. If it weren't for the Angry Dragon Gang stepping in, the Sun Moon Divine Sect would probably have wiped out even more sects."
"Under such circumstances, how dare the sect leader and the other forces in Baizhi City do this? Aren't they afraid of attracting Dongfang Bubai to bring his men to kill them?"
The tall, thin disciple made a shushing gesture and said, "Keep your voice down. You don't know, it's not just my Tiger Blade Sect. In this Baizhi City, Wuweifang, Huidao Sect, Ruyi Tower, and other second-rate forces are all like the Tiger Blade Sect. They don't pay taxes to the Sun Moon Divine Sect."
The Tiger Saber Sect disciple standing nearby exclaimed in astonishment, "They haven't even paid their taxes? When did Wuwei Workshop, Huidao Sect, and Ruyi Tower become so close to our Tiger Saber Sect?"
The tall, thin disciple said, "I heard from Elder Zhou in the sect that the sect leader and several sects from Wuweifang are discussing moving their sects together to the area around Shenshui Palace north of Daming in a while."
The Tiger Saber Sect disciple standing nearby asked in astonishment, "Why would you move so far away for no reason?"
The tall, thin disciple spoke up: "Nonsense! Before the Sun Moon Divine Sect took over Bright Peak, the Ming Cult's status as a first-rate power was already nominal. For more than ten years, no power in Baizhi City had paid taxes to the Ming Cult. Now the Sun Moon Divine Sect suddenly wants us to pay the taxes, which is a million taels of silver. Only a fool would hand over that money."
"Originally, fearing Dongfang Bubai's ruthlessness some time ago, the sect leader was prepared to admit defeat and make up for the tax payments of the past few years. However, not long ago, Dongfang Bubai of the Sun Moon Divine Sect suddenly ordered the disciples of the Sun Moon Divine Sect to behave themselves, not to cause trouble outside, and to put all affairs aside and focus on cultivation."
"That's why the sect leader and the others wanted to take this opportunity to move the sect and save that million taels of silver."
A disciple nearby asked, "The sect has moved, so what will happen to my family?"
The tall, thin disciple said, "What else can we do? After the sect moves away, we'll sneak back and bring our families over."
The person next to him sighed, "That's all we can do."
The tall, thin disciple spoke up: "Let me tell you, don't spread this news around. If it gets into the Sun Moon Cult, we'll be in trouble."
However, at that moment, a cold, seemingly emotionless female voice suddenly entered their ears.
"It's a pity, I guess your family won't be able to wait for you to come back and pick them up."
Upon hearing the sound, the two quickly looked up in the direction from which it came.
A moment later, in their line of sight, they could vaguely see a figure slowly approaching from the shadowy distance.
A few breaths later, when the figure emerged from the darkness, the two could see the person clearly by the light emanating from the large lantern hanging high above the entrance.
The woman was exceptionally beautiful, with a radiant complexion. Her long, flowing hair, like a waterfall, reached her shoulders and swayed gently as she walked. She was truly a stunning beauty.
However, the woman's face was extremely cold as she walked.
Even his eyes were filled with indifference and coldness, giving one a chilling feeling when touched.
Upon noticing the woman's fiery red robe, the two Tiger Saber Sect disciples at the door were immediately startled, thinking of "Dongfang Bubai".
However, when their gaze fell upon the woman, the two Tiger Saber Sect disciples realized something was amiss.
Rumors circulate that Dongfang Bubai's attire has recently changed; he is no longer wearing his previous bright red robe, but instead a black flowing dress.
Moreover, judging from the appearance of the woman in his line of sight, she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, which was clearly inconsistent with Dongfang Bubai's age.
