The Luo Sect Master thought to himself, "If these guys were willing to work together, Xu Gongming would not have achieved what he has today."

But with Xu Gongming’s way of doing things, even if everyone took a hard stance together, it’s hard to tell who might pay a tragically heavy price.

Everyone is an Evil Demon, is there really that high of awareness? Could they still be mixed up like this?

However, the Great Yu Court is no better.

He spoke up, "Just speak your mind directly."

He was in a hurry.

Mainly because the Luo Sect had recently suffered numerous setbacks, and the Lotus Sect was even more so swallowed and reorganized into the Red Flower Society by Xu Qing, making the Luo Sect Master very embarrassed now, with many dissenters in the sect.

He urgently needed to make a big move to stabilize people’s hearts.

If he made a big fuss in East Mountain Province and seriously damaged Yansheng Gong Mansion, the leader of the Confucian Ming Sect, it could be said to be a feat that predecessors of the Luo Sect had never achieved. With this, he could also comfort his ancestors.

Ultimately, the Luo Sect was also a legitimate school among the hundreds of schools in the past, but it was driven out of the Court by Confucian, which can be said to be one of the Luo Sect’s greatest grievances.

A hatred of a hundred generations, a vengeance that may be avenged.

"I want the Saint’s Handwritten Manuscript," Heart Moon Fox stated his real purpose directly.

This incident in Kong Mansion was an opportunity for them.

"I want one of Kong Mansion’s Holy Artifacts to eliminate the hidden dangers on me," Red-haired Yan Kong slowly spoke, his companion Golden Hou nodding in agreement.

The Luo Sect Master was doubtful and uncertain, "How do you know that my target is Kong Mansion?"

Heart Moon Fox sneered, "You haven’t even touched the Ghost Immortal Barrier, naturally you don’t know the profundity of my Heavenly Fox Technique."

The Luo Sect Master snorted coldly, "If you’re really that powerful, why did you suffer such a huge loss on Qishan Island last time?"

Heart Moon Fox: "If my true body had come out, then all of you combined would not be a match for me."

"So why were you sealed?" The Luo Sect Master struck home with understanding.

Heart Moon Fox: "..."

Seeing this, the Luo Sect Master continued, "What exactly happened, if you don’t tell me, I won’t be at ease. Let’s not cooperate then."

Heart Moon Fox reluctantly said, "The people you sent to deliver messages were too weak. I’ve been secretly observing you from the outside for a long time, naturally having the chance to meddle with your messenger and steal a look at your secret letters."

The Luo Sect Master exclaimed, "You’ve been monitoring me? How come I didn’t notice it?"

"As I said, I am a Demon Immortal, and my Realm is not something you can imagine," Heart Moon Fox emphasized again, striving to regain some face.

The Luo Sect Master was somewhat persuaded, but regardless of how powerful the former Demon Immortal was, after being sealed for so long, could they still retain a fraction of their prime strength, not to mention it was just a Divine Separation.

It seems the fortunes of the Great Yu Court are indeed declining sharply, with various devils starting to stir. In such great times, there are often a few influential figures who rise to pacify the rivers and mountains and sweep away the multitude of demons, restoring peace to the world.

"An opportune time is when heaven and earth exert their forces together. Xu Gongming has achieved so much at such a young age; aside from his innate wisdom, he is probably also born to quell slaughters," the Luo Sect Master’s thoughts flickered before speaking, "The Kong Mansion may not practice Dao Skill, but the Holy Temple is filled with strong and righteous thoughts, which make it difficult for us to use Dao Skill once inside. Therefore, this time we need to incite a peasant uprising first, then fish in troubled waters, to avoid any unforeseen incidents."

The strong and righteous thoughts of the Saint are not meant to be used against common people. Once a rebellion occurs and the temple is vandalized, it’s their chance to fish in troubled waters.

Red-haired Yan Kong spoke slowly, "The Sect Hierarch possesses great Divine Skills, but it seems you have little research on astronomy and geography."

"Astronomy and geography?"

"I have been observing the heavens recently and noticed signs of heavenly calamities and changes in star positions. It seems not long from now, there will be earthly calamities, with dragons and snakes rising from the land. Once we reach East Mountain Province, we wait for the right moment, and there must be an excellent opportunity to act."

Rising dragons and snakes represent changes in rivers and land routes. It means that the earth is unleashing calamities and altering the landscape.

The Luo Sect Master pondered, considering that it was the season for autumn floods. If the Yellow River were to cause flooding in East Mountain Province, it would indeed lead to the disasters of dragons and snakes rising from the land.

If East Mountain Province experiences flooding, then Central State’s land may also suffer severely.

He then said, "I didn’t expect you to have such a study on the flooding of the Yellow River."

Realizing that the Luo Sect Master had pierced through the heavenly secrets, Red-haired Yan Kong thought, "This old fox is becoming more capable." He found the Luo Sect Master to be more lucid than Heart Moon Fox had described, which he found surprising.

The problem is, how could Xu Qing deceive the Luo Sect Master?

Isn’t he professional enough as an Evil Demon?

Red-haired Yan Kong was slightly frustrated, but he quickly regained his composure and smiled indifferently, "Sect Hierarch, your extensive knowledge is impressive."

The Luo Sect Master was secretly pleased. He had endured many lessons dealing with Xu Qing, always learning from past mistakes.

He was also learning some of Xu Qing’s ways of thinking.

After all, Xu Qing’s achievements were there for all to see, and this time he directly confronted North Kong with actions that shook the heavens, which inevitably made one ponder many things.

In the past, when they fought against a power, they always felt that the opponent was overwhelming and that their own strength was insufficient, acting somewhat timidly. But with careful analysis and exploring problems from the enemy’s internal perspective, many seemingly great difficulties can be subdivided into different smaller challenges, which, in essence, is no different from the martial arts Daoist Skill of countering move by move.

Actually, in times of chaos, it’s the same.

In the early stages, everyone’s methods are quite crude and grow wildly. In the middle and late stages, the forces that survive are battle-hardened with maxed-out experience. By then, it’s mostly about using national power to crush the opposition.
