Everyone in the Angel Temple had experienced Shen Sixi's arrogance before, and should have gotten used to it, but they were still quite angry.

No one knows what kind of magic Shen Sixi possesses. Before meeting her, the Angel Palace never failed.

After meeting her, Angel Temple never succeeded again; even the top assassin was lured away by her.

The assassins looked at Xiaohua, their feelings complicated.

Then look at Shen Sixi—She leans against the door with her arms crossed, her posture arrogant yet casual.

A bird flew in from afar, flapped its wings, and landed on her shoulder.

She tilted her head slightly and casually extended a finger to tease the bird.

Who wouldn't be extremely respectful and deferential when they meet their temple master?

She was the only one who wasn't afraid; on the contrary, she was quite interested.

Her eyes looked as if she were examining an interesting new toy.

The Lord of the Angel Temple was also scrutinizing Shen Sixi, his gaze shifting from indifference to seriousness, as if he couldn't believe it.

"Palace Master?" he murmured to himself.

His voice was so low that even the group of assassins following behind him couldn't hear him clearly.

Shen Sixi heard him clearly and glanced at him thoughtfully.

The little bird tilted its head to look at him, then flapped its wings and flew toward him.

The bird was less than half a meter from the temple master when it was shot and killed by a bullet that came from nowhere.

A loud bang echoed through the herb garden, followed by a deathly silence.

Feathers brushed against the temple master's cheek.

Old Huang's eyes widened, his face turning red with anger: "You! You all!"

"Very well, you people have trespassed into my herb garden and killed my birds. I have now made an enemy of the Temple of Angels! From this day forward, I will never let you live under the same sky!"

Old Huang was very angry, but he was also somewhat intimidated.

The Temple of Angels sent at least a hundred people, while they only had three.

Master Huang was devoted to medicine and not skilled in martial arts.

He's good at poisoning people, but when it comes to fighting... he's not very confident.

Old Huang had never witnessed Shen Sixi's skills. He figured that since Shen Sixi was so good at making pharmaceuticals, she probably didn't have much time for anything else.

In other words, they can only rely on Xiaohua.

Old Huang was in a heavy mood, unsure if he could get through tonight's ordeal.

However, he did not resent Shen Sixi for dragging him down. Xiao Qi's poison had been cured, and even if he died, he would have no regrets.

Just as Huang was preparing to die, an unexpected event occurred.

—The Lord of the Angel Temple actually knelt down before Shen Sixi.

The assassins were horrified and took several steps back, staring incredulously at their lord.

Old Huang was also dumbfounded, and Xiao Hua was even more surprised.

Only Shen Sixi remained calm, looking down at him.

He looked dazed and called out to Shen Sixi, "Palace Master!"

The herb garden was eerily quiet.

Who did the Palace Master call for, Shen Sixi?

The only one in that direction is Shen Sixi.

Why does the Palace Master kneel before Shen Sixi and call her Palace Master?

The assassins looked at each other, filled with suspicion and uncertainty.

Old Huang and Xiao Hua also showed expressions of incomprehension.

Only Shen Sixi slightly curled her lips, revealing a look of complete control in her eyes.

From the moment Zang Shiqi barged into the herb garden, Shen Sixi guessed that Zang Shiqi was lying.

Zang Shiqi's acting was excellent, and the injuries on his body were real, but his intention to gather information was far too obvious.

Shen Sixi thought at the time that Zang Shiqi must have some weakness that the Angel Temple had in its grasp, otherwise they wouldn't be in such a hurry.

She gave Zang Shiqi the antidote in order to lure the Lord of the Angel Temple to come looking for her.

I heard that he has been searching for an antidote all these years.

She bet he would come.

He did come, even faster than she expected.

While waiting, Shen Sixi borrowed Elder Huang's old notebook and carefully checked the information about this Palace Master, still using some special methods.

You wouldn't know unless you looked it up; once you did, you'd find that this temple master's life was quite remarkable.

It turns out that the Temple of Angels was not founded by him; he seized it by force.

His name is Josh. He is an orphan, a Westerner, who was adopted by a Chinese family living in Europe when he was very young.

This family has declined and its members are few and far between; in this generation, only one girl has been born.

The girl's father is Chinese, and her mother is not Chinese but is also Asian.

The girl herself has a typical Asian appearance, and her name is Ya Ting.

Yatin's childhood and adolescence were filled with crises as family members died one after another.

When she grew up, she founded the Temple of Angels.

Initially, the Angel Temple didn't do anything for money. Under Yatin's constraints, the Angel Temple still had some principles in its actions.

Josie had always followed Yatin and was the second-in-command of the Angel Temple.

He was half a year younger than Yating, and Yating treated him like a younger brother.

Gradually, Josie became dissatisfied with being just Yatine's younger brother, and was no longer content with being merely the second-in-command of the Angel Temple.

Relying on Yating's trust, he plotted against Yating and imprisoned her.

That year, there was no one left in the Yating family except for a cousin from a collateral branch.

My cousin is skilled in making poisons and holds a high position in the Temple of Angels.

Josie announced that Yatine had disappeared, and no one suspected anything except her cousin.

Josie naturally became the new head of the Angel Temple, and no one objected except for her cousin.

My cousin has always suspected that Josie killed Yatine.

Josie didn't care what his cousin thought of him; what angered him was that even when he locked Yatin up, she refused to submit to him.

He confessed his feelings to Ya Ting, but Ya Ting looked at him like he was trash.

While torturing Yating, he also had people treat Yating.

Not content with that, he then went on to torment Ya Ting's cousin.

His cousin already disliked him, so she took the opportunity to poison him.

He used all sorts of tortures from the Temple of Angels on his cousin, but she refused to hand over the antidote.

He then brought his cousin to Ya Ting and used Ya Ting to threaten her.

My cousin was both surprised and angry when she saw Ya Ting.

To everyone's surprise, Ya Ting was still alive; to everyone's anger, Josie not only locked Ya Ting up, but also tortured him to this state.

Yating is now so weak that he can't even utter a complete sentence.

“If you let my cousin out, I will give you the antidote,” the cousin said.

Josie agreed, but after drinking the antidote, she turned her back on her, killing her cousin and not letting Ya Ting leave either.

After some time, Josie realized that the antidote his cousin gave him could only save him temporarily, not forever; he would have to take the antidote for the rest of his life.

In his anger, he realized that he could use the same method to control the assassins of the Temple of Angels.

After Yatin's mysterious disappearance, most of the people closest to Yatin left the Angel Temple, causing unrest within the temple. Josie had long wanted to deal with these people.

But clearly, Josie underestimated the potency of the poison. As he remained poisoned for longer, the antidote became less and less effective, and he often suffered greatly and even experienced frequent hallucinations.

In recent years, he has either been visiting famous doctors or on his way to visit famous doctors.

—The above is a compilation of information that Shen Sixi pieced together after hacking into the phones and computers of Qiao Xi's two personal doctors.

One of the two doctors was a psychiatrist, and he heard a lot of Josie's unconscious confessions when she was having an episode.

When Qiao Xi first looked at her and called her "Palace Master" in a daze, Shen Sixi immediately thought of using some means to further stimulate Qiao Xi's illness.

Actually, a fair fight isn't out of the question, and Shen Sixi is confident she can win.

However, the death of a few assassins is nothing, but the destruction of the medicinal herbs in this garden is not good.
