"Old monk!" Gao Fei yelled, "I have five people in my hands, all from your Myriad Buddhas Sect. How about we make a deal? Exchange these five people for Shangguan Yunyue, and throw in a few Defying Heavenly Level Spiritual Medicines as well. How does that sound? It's a fair trade, isn't it?"

Fair my ass! Abbot Xuan Si's face was gloomy, rage pounding in his chest. At this moment, he was furious! Absolutely livid!

"We can't exchange them!" said the Chief Great Elder Xuan Ming, rushing his words, "If we release Shangguan Yunyue, the Shariputra will be irretrievable. As for the Defying Heavenly Level Spiritual Medicines... Myriad Buddhas Sect only has one left, it is our temple's treasured possession, kept for crucial use, it's definitely not possible to give it to them." After several days of recovery, Xuan Ming had healed most of his injuries.

Abbot Xuan Si said in a deep voice, "The other party has hostages..."

"I firmly believe that Brother Xuan Wu and the others would understand," Xuan Ming continued, "They would prefer to die rather than put Myriad Buddhas Sect in a difficult position." It was truly laughable. The last time Xuan Ming was captured by Gao Fei, Xuan Wu was kicking him while he was down, almost wishing Gao Fei would kill him. Now the roles were reversed, Xuan Wu became the hostage, and then Xuan Ming started the kicking...

The constant strife between the two brothers was all for the position of Abbot. They both wanted to lead, but there was only one Abbot, so they fought relentlessly, suppressing each other by whatever means necessary.

"You're right, we can't release Shangguan Yunyue, nor can we give away the Defying Heavenly Level Spiritual Medicine," Abbot Xuan Si continued, pausing for a moment, "But we can't ignore the lives of Brother Xuan Wu and the others either."

"But..."

"We need to think of a foolproof plan, one that can not only save Brother Xuan Wu and the others but also repel the enemy."

"... Where on earth can we find such a perfect strategy?"

"Keep thinking, try harder, use your brains, we must be able to think of a way," Abbot Xuan Si said firmly.

Think my ass! Xuan Ming cursed inwardly. The enemy was fierce and certainly wouldn't stop here. To rescue the hostages, they had to agree to the enemy's terms, but the problem was, their demands were too harsh, utterly non-negotiable.

Abbot Xuan Si raised his voice, "The people outside, release the hostages immediately and then leave at once. I might turn a blind eye and not trouble you further."

"Damn!" Gao Fei had waited for a long time, only to hear such a statement, and nearly exploded with anger, "Bald donkey! Are you senile? We hold the upper hand here, you should be listening to us..."

"I'll give you the time it takes an incense stick to burn. If you haven't released the hostages by then, I won't be polite to you any longer," Abbot Xuan Si stated forcefully.

"Fine! Fine! Fine! You've got guts!" Gao Fei lifted his foot and savagely kicked Xuan Wu several times, gasping for air as he cursed, "See that? Your Abbot is so cold-blooded. He'd rather watch you die than compromise. Since that's how it is, don't blame me for turning heartless." With fierce kicks, in the blink of an eye, Xuan Wu's face was covered in blood, lying on the ground and screaming in pain.

He Hentian was not idle either; he rushed over to beat up the other four monks, kicking and hitting with great force. In a moment, the four monks were bleeding from their heads, lying on the ground twitching.

Then, Duanmu Hong also started to make a move; she walked towards Abbot Xuan Si, but just a few steps out, she was blocked by a transparent light curtain, a Defensive Great Formation had been set up outside the mountain gate, and the transparent light curtain was the manifestation of it.

"Think a mere low-level Formation can stop me? Dream on!"

Duanmu Hong placed her hand on the transparent light curtain and then pushed down forcefully...

"Humph!" Abbot Xuan Si snorted coldly, "The Defensive Great Formation outside the mountain gate was laid down by the founding ancestor of our sect. Despite being somewhat damaged, its defensive power is still incredibly strong. I don't believe you can break through it... ah..." Abbot Xuan Si suddenly exclaimed in shock, "How is this possible? Am I seeing things?"

"Crack-crack-crack..."

Under Duanmu Hong's pressure, several cracks suddenly appeared on the transparent light curtain...

"My God!"

"The Defensive Great Formation has been breached!"

"How is this possible?"

"Who exactly is this woman? Her strength is simply too terrifying!"

"I have a bad feeling about this... we're probably in for some bad luck today..."

Seeing the Defensive Array in grave danger, many disciples panicked.

"Boom!!!"

"Crack!!!"

After holding up for just a few breaths, the transparent light screen collapsed on the spot, turning into specks of light that vanished into the air, signifying the destruction of the Great Formation that had protected Myriad Buddhas Sect for tens of thousands of years!

"Senior is mighty!!!" Gao Fei shouted with admiration.

"Senior is freaking awesome!!! Absolutely freaking awesome!!!" He Hentian cheered, waving his arms exuberantly.

Mistress Duanmu Hong remained very calm. For her, destroying a formation that existed for tens of thousands of years was all too common; it wasn't something to get excited or cheer about. Back in her days of wandering, she had destroyed dozens of formations, all of which were famous and powerful. Someone even nicknamed her the "Formation Nemesis".

With no Defensive Great Formation to hinder her, Duanmu Hong easily walked into Myriad Buddhas Sect: "Hmm! The Spiritual Energy here is quite dense, isn't it? It's a good place for cultivation."

The Abbot Xuan Si, heads of various temples, elders, and numerous disciples were all stunned. They were intimidated by Duanmu Hong's formidable strength.

The first to snap back to reality was Abbot Xuan Si, who took a deep breath before saying to Duanmu Hong, "Who are you exactly, and why are you opposing Myriad Buddhas Sect?"

"I am someone who has died and come back to life," Duanmu Hong said calmly, looking at Abbot Xuan Si. "Among these monks, you have the strongest cultivation, but still... you are no match for me!" With that, Duanmu Hong grinned, revealing a set of ghastly white teeth: "Even if you all attack together, you're still no match for me."

Just as Abbot Xuan Si was about to speak, someone else beat him to it...

"Big talk!" Head Elder Xuan Ming of the Elder Council bellowed angrily: "I admit you are very strong, and if we were to fight one-on-one, none of us would be your opponent, but... if we all attack together, you're heading straight for death!"

Duanmu Hong slowly turned her head, her gaze icy as she looked at Monk Xuan Ming, "I was speaking to your Abbot, what are you butting in for! What are you even worth!" As she spoke, Duanmu Hong raised her hand and slapped towards Monk Xuan Ming. The slap seemed light and effortless, yet the power it unleashed was truly terrifying.

"Boom!!!"

"Thump!!!"

"Ah!!!"

Monk Xuan Ming was sent flying by a dreadful force; while still in the air, he spat out several mouthfuls of blood. "Swoosh!!!" After tracing a beautiful arc in the sky, Monk Xuan Ming crashed heavily onto the ground, smashing a few stones and kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Hiss!!!"

Abbot Xuan Si and the others drew in a breath of cold air. Wasn't that a bit too strong? To think that from where Duanmu Hong stood, a dozen meters away from Monk Xuan Ming, a casual slap could send him flying, causing him to spit blood and sustain severe injuries, especially considering that Monk Xuan Ming was at the Transcendence Tribulation Stage...

Given Duanmu Hong's overwhelming strength and her unreasonable demeanor, who among those present could contend with her?
