Nightmare Apostle

Chapter 1860: Chapter 1060: Bone Curse (2)

"Is he among those who came?" At that moment, Yang Xiao truly realized the terrifying nature of the Jiu Mountain Family, "No, them... both of them?"

The other head on the ground was a woman’s, but she was disheveled, her long hair matted with blood stuck to her face, and her neck where it was severed was exceptionally smooth, clearly cut off in one stroke. Yang Xiao immediately thought of Jiushan Shunyu’s famous saber, Ghost Blade Guimang, at her waist.

Jiushan Cangxuan nodded slightly, saying dully, "Hmm, but we haven’t yet identified this woman’s identity; she too was a Netherworld Envoy, and she should have some renown among you."

"Hiss—" Yang Xiao couldn’t help but inhale sharply; facing the demons led by Half Compassion Purple Body Buddha of the Black Buddha Mother Sect while Jiushan Cangxuan was holding the line here in formation, both sides were 5 against 5, resulting in Half Compassion Purple Body Buddha being repelled after a fierce battle, and two of the five Netherworld Envoys were counter-killed. The Jiu Mountain Family’s combat prowess is terrifying beyond belief.

Yang Xiao was even pondering whether Jiushan Cangxuan could have detained the Black Buddha Mother had he been more decisive.

This demon has blood debts laden, killing this person would be a great merit, a deed of immeasurable virtue.

Jiushan Cangxuan seemingly saw through Yang Xiao’s thoughts, shaking his head, "Yang Xiao, don’t think too much; repelling her is already the best outcome; if it weren’t for my sister’s ability against her, my Jiu Mountain Family retreating intact today would have been nearly impossible." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"Half Compassion Purple Body Buddha is even more troublesome than I imagined."

"Apart from Half Compassion Purple Body Buddha, and these two, can you identify the identities of the remaining two Netherworld Envoys?" Yang Xiao asked eagerly.

Jiushan Cangxuan shook his head, saying he couldn’t recognize them, but Yang Xiao, through his description of the two’s body types, could preliminarily conclude the Sect Master didn’t come.

"Yang Xiao, instead of pondering over these, you’d better consider why they would cause such a fuss to try killing you." Jiushan Cangxuan shifted the conversation back to the main topic.

"This time, they brought five people; I can feel it. The Half Compassion Purple Body Buddha who led them was also wary of me, but they still chose to act without hesitation. Do you know what this means?" Jiushan Cangxuan asked quietly.

Yang Xiao swallowed his saliva, answering softly, "They received a death order, determined to kill me."

"That’s correct, such an array against someone of your General Bureau’s rank I can understand, but concerning you, I’m really baffled; can you explain?" Jiushan Cangxuan stared at Yang Xiao inquiring.

"Unintentionally, I used the Wordless Heavenly Scripture to accidentally see them meeting. I think they believe I overheard their secrets, hence they pursued to kill me." Yang Xiao quickly made an assessment.

He thought these guys weren’t likely coming for the Hundred Demons Coffin Clothes, otherwise, the Sect Master would certainly come along; he wouldn’t let anyone know this secret, thereby taking the Hundred Demons Coffin Clothes.

Aside from the Hundred Demons Coffin Clothes, he couldn’t think of any other reason for the attack; he had always been upright, hardly causing any conflicts with the Black Buddha Mother Sect; the problem must have arisen during that meeting.

"They are plotting something very important; those attending the meeting have distinctive identities, this matter absolutely cannot be leaked."

Yang Xiao recalled the knowledge Elder Sheng had taught him; over the years, the Black Buddha Mother Sect secretly incited many renowned masters from the world of martial arts.

Among them, even high-level individuals from the three major forces were given corresponding Buddha’s son and Bodhisattva positions; these people were Black Buddha Mother’s informants and enforcers, awakened at critical moments.

Yang Xiao suspected he likely saw someone he shouldn’t have, the meeting’s level was very high, Half Compassion Purple Body Buddha personally presided over, presumably attendees included significant figures with Buddha son positions, to avoid exposing these people’s identities, hence he must die.

Thinking even the Sect Master he deeply revered was amongst them, Yang Xiao became increasingly curious about what these guys were plotting together.

In any case, it must be an earth-shattering affair; if they succeed, who knows how many people will die.

After hearing Yang Xiao’s words, Jiushan Cangxuan confirmed the matter’s nature; they were here to kill Yang Xiao and silence him.

"Bad..." Yang Xiao’s face turned ashen, "Senior Jiu Shan, my identity is exposed, will they come for me again when I return home?"

Provoking sects like Yu Yuan Sect and Withered Bone Pavilion didn’t bother Yang Xiao much; after all, he was an officer from the Patrol Defense Office, while they were bandits. If he didn’t actively pursue trouble with them, these guys should count their blessings.

But the Black Buddha Mother Sect was different; the Patrol Defense Office’s name couldn’t intimidate them; the Black Buddha Mother is a master rivaling Chief Yue.

Not exaggerating, in the nation, the Black Buddha Mother’s lineage was practically the fourth major force, and in high-rank combat prowess, they wouldn’t necessarily lose to any of the three major forces led by the Patrol Defense Office. The title ’Head of Ten Thousand Religions’ is no idle boast.

The Poison Sect, far in the lands of Myanmar and Thailand, simply because the Sect Hierarch was disrespectful toward the Buddha Mother’s Envoy, met with extermination overnight; hundreds of Envoys perished.

Yang Xiao didn’t want, nor dare to get involved with these guys; he believed in justice but must first ensure his own survival with justice.

Seeing Yang Xiao’s ashen expression, clearly terrified, Jiushan Cangxuan comforted, "Yang Xiao, you’re lucky; this time, our Jiu Mountain Family shielded you; don’t worry too much; they shouldn’t come for you again, because they don’t truly know who you are."
