The Cold-Hearted Princess Who Transmigrated Here
Chapter 86 Annihilation of the Branch Altar
At this moment, Lin Fengxiao suddenly became solemn and serious, and solemnly said, "Fellow heroes, this cult disturbance has been going on for several days."
"Judging from the continuous stream of news coming from various places, the remnants of those cults that were hiding in the shadows have resurfaced, and their actions are becoming increasingly rampant and outrageous."
"They must have reached a dead end, a point of desperation, and they have become so brazen that they have started burning, killing, looting, and committing all sorts of atrocities, causing countless innocent people to suffer in the places they have gone!"
"If we do not take decisive and effective action to contain this soon, it may lead to even more serious consequences and harm!"
After saying this, Lin Fengxiao couldn't help but sigh softly, and then continued with great concern, "Although we have organized an encirclement and suppression, they always manage to escape easily."
"Therefore, Mr. Wang and I have specially gathered you all here today because we sincerely hope that we can work together, pool our wisdom and efforts, and jointly discuss and explore a practical and feasible solution."
Wang Xijie frowned, his eyes revealing a hint of worry and urgency. He asked the people in the hall, "Does anyone know where that cult's stronghold is located? Or do they have any relatively fixed locations for their activities?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads, indicating that they had gained nothing.
Lin Fengxiao sighed and said, "So far, we have not obtained any definite information. However, based on the existing clues, we deduce that this group of cultists is very likely hiding in a secluded valley."
"Their activities are unusually scattered and unpredictable, making them truly difficult to fathom."
After saying that, Alliance Leader Lin anxiously followed up with, "Young Master Wang, do you have any other relevant information?"
Wang Xijie nodded slightly and replied, "I did manage to glean some information from those trapped cult members."
"Based on the information provided by Alliance Leader Lin, the conclusions I reached during the interrogation should be correct. Their lair is hidden in a large mountain near Yunyang."
"Although the exact location needs further verification, this is not the most difficult problem. Once we officially launch the operation, I will have a way to make the cult remnants obediently lead the way for us."
"In addition, the branch of the God Worshipping Cult here has nearly two hundred followers. We have also learned that the reason why the God Worshipping Cult has made such a big fuss and is carrying out a secret mission."
"Unfortunately, no one knows the specific details of this mission. I guess it's because these people who were captured held low positions in the organization and were therefore unaware of the key details of the mission."
Alliance Leader Lin nodded slightly, indicating his complete agreement. "Indeed! If there were any key figures among these people, they would surely have come to rescue the prisoners. However, there has been no movement so far, which shows that these people are insignificant."
Wang Xijie then took over the conversation, saying with a solemn expression, "We also know a bit about the other aspects of this cult."
He paused briefly to gather his thoughts before continuing, "This so-called God-worshipping Cult originated in the Southern Shang Kingdom. The Southern Shang Kingdom has always been known as the 'Land of Music.' Within its borders stand several renowned and profound families and sects specializing in music, with long-standing traditions and exquisite skills."
"But who could have predicted that in the last two or three decades, someone would quietly organize such a cult within its borders. Its leader is dedicated to modifying traditional musical instruments, making them extremely strange and unpredictable."
"Not only that, they also cleverly utilize the power of the formation, with the two complementing each other to achieve a more powerful and insidious attack effect. This method is insidious and ruthless, making it difficult to defend against."
"This cult is notorious in the area and is an evil organization that everyone wants to kill. However, because its cultivation methods are unique and powerful, and because its members have always kept a low profile, the local government has been unable to completely eradicate it."
"The cult leader who escaped this time is the head of the Yunyang branch of the four-nation branch, and he is also one of the five elders of the cult headquarters. This cult elder's skill is among the best in the entire cult, and he can be ranked in the top ten."
"This man is meticulous and cunning, and he has most likely already fled back to his lair. As for those remaining followers, they are probably being used by him to distract us."
"The problem now is that the more these guys scatter and flee, the more difficult it becomes for us to catch them all at once."
"Therefore, when everyone takes action, we must be extremely vigilant and not let any possible escape slip by."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Fengxiao nodded slightly in agreement and said, "Yes, everyone must always be vigilant and not let their guard down!"
Wang Xijie's gaze swept over the other sect leaders and elders present, then he solemnly added: "Gentlemen, this cult has committed numerous evils and is a great scourge to the martial arts world! This matter not only concerns the honor and prosperity of each sect present, but also the life and death of the entire martial arts world and even the entire nation. Therefore, I hope that you can all work together to fight against the cult."
As soon as he finished speaking, the leaders and elders of the various sects all nodded solemnly in agreement, indicating their willingness to obey orders and fight against the cult together.
In an instant, a fierce fighting spirit ignited in everyone's hearts, vowing to completely eradicate this evil force and restore a bright and clear world to the martial arts world.
Afterwards, the group began to discuss specific action plans.
First, Mo Yun will lead an elite squad of forty people as the vanguard to penetrate deep into the cult's lair.
After confirming that the cult members were relatively concentrated, Dongfang Yu then set up the restrictions.
Finally, after trapping most of the cult members, Lin Fengxiao will lead two hundred disciples from the alliance to launch a general offensive and completely wipe out the cult's branch.
Wang Xijie stood up and said to everyone, "In that case, let's proceed according to plan. We'll set off tomorrow, and with our joint efforts, we're sure to return victorious!"
Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!"
Thus, a vigorous anti-cult campaign officially began.
In fact, much of the information about cults obtained this time was not revealed by cult remnants, but rather relied on the Dark Night Pavilion of the Prince Xian's Mansion, since they had made contact with them several times before and had also conducted relevant investigations.
Because the people in the Prime Minister's residence were generally not very skilled in martial arts, they could only stay and guard the Martial Alliance.
Not only were their combat abilities low, but the main reason was that the young master and young lady of the Prime Minister's mansion were of noble status, and Lin Fengxiao and the others dared not let them put themselves in danger.
Originally, Wang Xiyue also wanted to go with Xiao Ge to set up the formation, but Dongfang Yu objected with a serious expression. She couldn't persuade him and had to compromise in the end. However, she insisted that only Xiao Yun should stay by her side, and the rest of the Xianwang Mansion people must follow Mo Yun to ensure his safety. Dongfang Yu knew that Xiyue was worried about him, so he agreed.
The next day, it was dawn.
The entire team is fully prepared and ready to go.
Mo Yun's team and Dongfang Yu were the first to set off. Because of the hallucinogenic drugs prepared by Wang Xiyue, the two cult remnants led the way very diligently.
Because they needed to constantly check if the route was suspicious, they didn't travel very fast even on horseback.
Lin Fengxiao waited half an hour before setting off. To avoid making too much noise, no one in the group could ride horses and had to use their light-footed skills.
Despite having made thorough preparations before setting off, everyone remained vigilant and cautious on their journey to their destination.
After a long and arduous journey, the team finally arrived at the cult's base.
Surprisingly, this so-called "base" turned out to be a magnificent castle of immense size, covering an area of nearly two miles! From a distance, the castle resembled a giant beast crouching in a dense forest, giving people an invisible sense of dark oppression.
Upon closer inspection, one can see the towering and sturdy walls surrounding the castle, which are as impregnable as a fortress of bronze and iron.
Moreover, the walls were fortified with numerous elaborate defensive works, such as arrow towers and watchtowers. Furthermore, many guards patrolled the walls constantly, vigilantly observing the surrounding area.
However, the scene before them did not intimidate or deter them. On the contrary, seeing that the God Worshippers had not completely withdrawn from the area, they felt more at ease, and the fighting spirit that was already burning brightly in their hearts was instantly ignited even more fiercely.
The group of forty people carefully followed Mo Yun as he sneaked in, cautiously avoiding each patrol team.
After a stick of incense had burned, they finally broke through the defenses and discovered the true internal situation.
Mo Yun placed forty people in various important locations within the base to conceal their presence, and then quietly emerged to deliver the message to the prince.
"Master, there are about fifty guards on the outer perimeter, stationed in various places, while about a hundred people are concentrated in the core area inside. Now is a good time; they are having a meeting."
"This gives you just enough time to set up the restrictions."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yu knew that the opportunity was not to be missed, so he hurriedly instructed Lin Fengxiao to surround the entire castle as soon as possible, and then wait for the signal to launch a general attack.
After saying that, he followed Mo Yun and sneaked back into the base.
This cult is indeed very wealthy. The main hall alone is magnificent and covers an area of more than 100 feet. The highest point in the center is the main seat, and the lower steps around it are seats. It can roughly be estimated to accommodate at least a thousand people.
Fortunately, there aren't many people left, and the area isn't large, so he can relax a bit. Setting up the restriction this time will take at least the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!
Knowing the urgency of the situation and fearing that further delay would lead to unforeseen complications, Dongfang Yu did not hesitate to choose a relatively secluded corner, quickly steadied himself, and immediately began setting up the restriction.
Meanwhile, Mo Yun stood guard behind him like a loyal protector, paying close attention to the surrounding movements.
As for Shadow and Dark One, they remained hidden in the shadows, as silent as ghosts, always on high alert, closely monitoring every movement from all directions.
Just then, a furious roar suddenly rang out in the hall: "Vice Master, the Fourth Elder actually fled back to the main altar alone, abandoning us all and leaving us here as his shields! Are we just going to cower here like this forever? If this continues, what hope do we have of survival?"
The speaker was a squad leader of a slightly lower rank. At this moment, his face was flushed red and his eyes were blazing with anger, clearly he was extremely furious.
The deputy sect leader, who was being questioned, sat upright in the head seat. Faced with this sudden accusation, an inexplicable anger welled up within him, but reason told him that he had to suppress it. After all, at this moment, even he himself had no idea how to ensure everyone's safety.
“Vice Master, you must show us a way out! Our abilities are completely suppressed by those guys from the Martial Alliance, to the point that we can’t act as a group and can only scatter like a pile of loose sand.”
"But by doing things this way, we can't fully utilize our strength at all! Several groups of people we sent out before only managed to escape by luck."
"If we unfortunately encounter a truly powerful master in the future, we will be completely powerless and face certain death!" one of them said anxiously.
