The four brothers, the eldest and the fourth had just died not long ago, and now the second and third were about to follow in their footsteps.

On Yellow Springs Road, if the eldest and the fourth walked a bit slower, maybe the second and third could catch up to them.

Zengzhang Heaven and Guangmu Heaven were obviously not willing to die just like that.

However, if they really fought on, the two of them would certainly not be a match for Zhang Jiao.

Half of the Eighteen Layers of Minor Hell had been invaded by Zhang Jiao’s Yellow Heaven Secret Technique, and Zhang Jiao was already innately in an invincible position.

If they dragged it out, the ones who would definitely die were the two of them.

Zengzhang Heaven and Guangmu Heaven exchanged a look, clearly already having a countermeasure in mind.

"Third Brother, capture the leader first!"

"I’ll hold off Zhang Jiao, you go capture Lin Yuan. Only by capturing Lin Yuan alive do we have any chance of survival!" Guangmu Heaven secretly transmitted to Zengzhang Heaven.

Although Lin Yuan had fought Tiger Robe Ming King to the death, he himself was in terrible condition.

His body was covered with wounds, battered and bruised.

The scales of King Pingdeng’s tattoo were shattered, making it completely unusable now.

He couldn’t squeeze out even a drop of energy, nor could he use the power of King Zhuanlun to summon human heroes to protect himself.

In short, in this great battle with Tiger Robe Ming King, although Lin Yuan survived, he was a cripple.

Who knows how long it would take for his body to recover.

As for Liuyu Heaven, who was by Lin Yuan’s side, Zengzhang Heaven and Guangmu Heaven simply didn’t consider him a threat.

"Alright, I’ll go capture Lin Yuan!" Zengzhang Heaven nodded in agreement.

Zengzhang Heaven also knew that capturing Lin Yuan and threatening Zhang Jiao was their only way to survive.

"Zhang Jiao, don’t bully people too much!" Guangmu Heaven shouted, manipulating a huge fire dragon that swept up flames that covered the sky and charged towards Zhang Jiao.

Guangmu Heaven’s move was incredibly grand, but in actuality, the fire that blotted out the sky was just a cover for Zengzhang Heaven.

As the flames rose, Zengzhang Heaven moved too, and with a crisp sound of sword clashing, Zengzhang Heaven seemed to transform into a sword, a flash of silver light, rushing towards Lin Yuan with extreme speed.

As Zengzhang Heaven charged at Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan’s scalp went numb, and cold sweat broke out.

Now, any ordinary Yaksha could kill him, let alone Zengzhang Heaven.

If Zengzhang Heaven really made a move with the intent to kill, he would be doomed.

Could it be that after just killing Tiger Robe Ming King, he had to go down with him?

However, seeing this scene, a glint of brilliance flashed in Zhang Jiao’s eyes.

Our great virtuous master was extremely shrewd; seeing this scene, he knew that Zengzhang Heaven and Guangmu Heaven planned to capture the leader first and shoot the horse first.

However, Zhang Jiao was full of confidence, not panicking at all.

Zhang Jiao didn’t know much else, but he knew a lot about this arcane magic.

Yellow Heaven Secret Technique, Yellow Turban Warriors, Duke of Thunder assist me....

The few magics used previously were just a small display for Zhang Jiao.

"Thud!"

Only to see Zhang Jiao’s withered wooden staff strike the ground, making a clear and pleasant sound.

Then, Zhang Jiao casually drew a circle, first enclosing himself within, and then pointed his staff, drawing another circle in the direction of Zengzhang Heaven.

He gently chanted, "Stars Shift and Constellations Move!"

As Zhang Jiao’s voice fell, Zhang Jiao in the circle disappeared, and Zengzhang Heaven in the other circle disappeared as well.

In an instant, the people in both circles reappeared.

However, Zhang Jiao and Zengzhang Heaven had swapped places.

Zhang Jiao appeared in front of Lin Yuan, and Zengzhang Heaven appeared opposite Guangmu Heaven.

The move that Guangmu Heaven had charged up to hit Zhang Jiao, ended up now targeting his own brother.

Seeing that the person across had changed, Guangmu Heaven was startled too. The move had already been launched, and he couldn’t pull it back now.

With no choice, he could only slightly shift its direction, sending the move elsewhere.

Seeing Zhang Jiao’s move of shifting stars and altering constellations, swapping himself and Zengzhang Heaven, the stone in Lin Yuan’s heart finally fell.

At this moment, Lin Yuan just wanted to say, "Great virtuous master, reliable."

Zhang Jiao’s move shattered Guangmu Heaven’s illusions of capturing the leader first.

"Zhang Jiao, let us brothers go, this Eighteen Layers of Great Hell and Eighteen Layers of Minor Hell, we brothers don’t want them anymore!"

"If you want the City of Sin, you can have it too!"

"Let us brothers have a way out. Otherwise, we’ll fight to the death, and you’ll also suffer!" Guangmu Heaven slowly said.

With Tiger Robe Ming King already dead and being no match in battle, it was clear that everything here couldn’t be protected.

With no choice, Guangmu Heaven could only beg for survival first.

Hearing this, Zhang Jiao looked at Lin Yuan, obviously wanting to let Lin Yuan make the decision.

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, then transmitted to Zhang Jiao, "Can you take them out?"

Lin Yuan thought that if Zhang Jiao could take them out, then today they could solve the problem once and for all.

There was no reason to let these two threats go.

"Yes!" Zhang Jiao said confidently and affirmatively.

...

...

Qingqiu Mountain.

Atop the mountain pavilion.

The hanging mirror was displaying everything happening in the Eighteen Layers of Minor Hell.

This image was projected onto the mirror by Elder Bai using the turtle shell as a medium.

In the pavilion, it was still the members of this Anti-Buddha Alliance with Elder Bai.

However, among the people today, there was the addition of that fat monk.

Wu Nengsheng.

"Can you contact that kid?"

"Make him agree to let Guangmu Heaven and Zengzhang Heaven go!" Wu Nengsheng spoke.

Hearing this, Elder Bai, the Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder, and the others all looked at Wu Nengsheng.

Wu Nengsheng explained, "Although the four brothers of Chiguo are just minor deities of the Thirty-Six Heavens’ protectors, they have a good power level and are well-liked in the sect."

"Moreover, they belong to a different faction than Tiger Robe Ming King. Tiger Robe Ming King belongs to the faction of noble cultivators, while Chiguo and his brothers belong to the grassroots cultivators."

"If Guangmu Heaven and Zengzhang Heaven don’t die, and Tiger Robe Ming King does die in the Eighteen Layers of Minor Hell, and the Eighteen Layers of Minor Hell are lost."

"At that time, I can spread rumors within the sect, saying that Guangmu Heaven and Zengzhang Heaven took the opportunity to frame Tiger Robe Ming King, to provoke the grassroots faction and the noble faction against each other, dividing the entire sect."

"Although the World Honored One has nominally disbanded the sect, you all should know, the sect is still his foundation. Dividing the sect is destroying the World Honored One’s chance for enlightenment."

Although Wu Nengsheng explained that all of this was to destroy the World Honored One’s path to enlightenment, it was clear to any discerning eye.

This Wu Nengsheng harbored grand ambitions, and he might not just want to destroy the World Honored One’s path to enlightenment.

However, Elder Bai and the others were not afraid of Wu Nengsheng having ulterior motives, they did not fully trust Wu Nengsheng to begin with.

The reason they cooperated with Wu Nengsheng was firstly because he indeed had the strength to stand on equal footing with Elder Bai and them, and secondly, because he was from the World Honored One Sect, having such an insider greatly increased the chance of destroying the World Honored One’s path to enlightenment.
