Yang Dong's ears immediately stood up and he listened carefully to the conversation between the two guards.
"You're talking about the Princess Houjin, right? You mean... the Altar Master caught her for other purposes?"
"Brother, I'm not sure about this either. I just heard it mentioned by the elite cultivator above. After our altar leader returns, he seems to be determined to develop the sect."
"That's great! Our altar leader has been silent for so many years, it's time to show his face!"
"Whether it's the leader or the other two altar leaders, they are bossing around our altar leaders just because they have seniority in the sect. It's really disgusting!"
"Don't worry, brother, there is an elite member of our cult who is my brother. He told me over a drink last time that after this grand ceremony, our altar leader is very likely to touch the threshold of God!"
As soon as these words came out, both dungeon guards gasped.
"If this is the case, our altar leader will probably become the number one leader among all the cult leaders!"
"As the saying goes, one person can achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven. If this happens, our good days will not be far away!"
On the other side, Yang Dong listened to the conversation between the two, and his brain began to work rapidly.
If we go by what Ruo and Cai just said, there are generally two types of followers in this sect. One is the ordinary members like two guards, and the other is the elite members.
From what they said, the elite members were few in number and seemed to have a higher status.
And the altar leader they talked about seemed to be a few levels higher, like Master Wei Xiang of the Tiandihui, who could take charge of one side.
In the entire sect, there may be three altar masters and one leader.
As for the congregation and elite congregation, the number is unknown.
Yang Dong rubbed his eyebrows. There were two problems in front of him that needed to be solved urgently.
First, what do the guards mean by those days? Second, what do they mean by the grand ceremony? Why is this altar owner allowed to touch the edge of God? And does the god he talks about correspond to the realm of martial gods in martial arts?
All these problems can ultimately only be discovered through continued in-depth investigation.
However, Yang Dong already has his own guesses about this grand ceremony. If everything goes as he guessed, this girl Wan Yanyue will be in danger!
It's just that there is insufficient evidence now, and he needs to further confirm his ideas.
However... it may not be that easy to sneak into a heavily guarded place.
After Yang Dong pondered for a while, he still felt that he should take a long-term approach and formulate a reasonable plan.
On the other side, after Yu Xiaoyu easily dodged the numerous blockades, he quickly returned to the outside of Mingyue Town, one man and one horse.
These men in black dared to be so unscrupulous in Mingyue Town, and he would not believe it without the secret approval of Mingyue Town's chief official.
However, the large force of the Yongwu Army has not yet arrived, and they need to be subdued for the time being.
Moreover, Yang Gong's intention was very obvious. He seemed to be quite interested in this grand ceremony of the sect.
It seems that there must be a secret that I don't know about.
Although Yu Xiaoyu's words were rough, he knew very well that this matter was of great importance.
Otherwise, the father would not have sent him here.
Thinking of this, he waved the riding crop in his hand again. The horse felt pain under his crotch, and his pace immediately became a little faster.
Not long after, Yu Xiaoyu's figure appeared outside Mingyue Town.
Due to the unique signs of the Yongwu Army, he quickly found where Yan Bingyue and his party were stationed at the moment.
At this moment, Yan Bingyue was listening to the spies' reports.
"We just found two forces at war with each other outside Mingyue Town, but for some reason, the Houjin Cavalry also came here."
"There are masters among these two forces, so we don't dare to get too close...but I recognize one of them."
Hearing this, Yan Bingyue's eyes brightened slightly.
In Youzhou today, all forces are mixed. If she wants to do something, she first needs to understand the relationship between the various forces.
But... who can be recognized by the Xichang secret agents, could he be someone from the capital?
But what is the purpose of a person from the capital coming all the way to Youzhou?
The biggest difference between Yan Bingyue and Yang Dong is that they are more decisive. If you can't figure it out, don't think about it anymore.
So he opened his mouth and asked:
"Who did you recognize?"
"When Gong Yang was in Luozhou, he eradicated the old prince and his gang members. But there was one person who escaped from Gong Yang's pursuit. He was the old prince's steward."
Hearing this, Yan Bingyue frowned slightly.
When the old prince's government offices were wiped out, Yan Bingyue was naturally present. She naturally knew about this matter.
It was not just the old prince who escaped from the palace, but also his most elite secret guards.
However, these people have already become street rats, why do they still show up now?
Could it be that...it's not good, they must be here for senior brother!
Thinking of this, a chill flashed across Yan Bingyue's eyes.
At the same time, a cool breath instantly emanated from her body.
At this moment, she caught sight of Yu Xiaoyu's figure out of the corner of her eye. She was surprised and her eyes lit up slightly.
"Yu Xiaoyu? How is the situation with your master?"
"Don't worry, Master. Master is fine and can escape at any time. But he wants to investigate the origin of those men in black first."
"Did you find anything?"
Yan Bingyue raised her head, the coldness in her eyes getting deeper and deeper.
At this moment, she seemed to have turned into the icy beauty who rejected people thousands of miles away.
The difference is that this time she is targeting the men in black who hurt her senior brother.
"Master's wife, the other party is a member of the sect."
"The Cult??"
Yan Bingyue frowned slightly, her expression a little uncertain.
It can be said that she understands the difficulty of the sect better than anyone present.
Many years ago, there were many battles between the White Lotus Sect and the Hidden Sect. Even when the Three Kingdoms joined forces to wipe out the Guilty Sect, the White Lotus Sect also helped.
It's just that these are all old things. It has been more than a hundred years since the last time the sect was wiped out.
But I didn't expect... the sect would suddenly appear at this moment.
These rats in the gutter usually hide in the darkness, but now they appear so openly in front of the world, they must be secretly planning something big!
Thinking of this, Yan Bingyue asked:
"The Cult will not show up easily. If they show up now, they must have a plan. Do you know what they are planning?"
When Yu Xiaoyu heard this, he secretly thought that this master's wife was very thoughtful and indeed no ordinary person. Then she bowed slightly and said:
"Master Wife, they seem to be preparing for a grand ceremony, just three days from now..."
