Peerless Taoist

If she knew that the Holy Church of Light was such an existence, she definitely wouldn't have come.    

"If I had known earlier, I would've left before the city gates. The Holy Church of Light is definitely not a good place. The man I met at the city gates is definitely an enemy of the Holy Church of Light as well, and he wants to destroy the Holy Church of Light."    

Lu Yu's figure suddenly flashed across Su Xiuhuan's mind.    

Suddenly, a clamor came from the crowd.    

In the distant sky, there were suddenly hundreds of golden lights that spanned across the sky, standing in the sky.    

"Dong ..."    

The sound of an ancient bell resounded throughout the city. A hundred thousand candles burned at the same time, and the thick smell of incense reached into the sky. The power of faith around them started to subtly affect everyone's mental energy.    

The crowd in the distance fell to their knees, and many of them had tears of excitement in their eyes.    

Eighteen old monks wearing kasaya sat on lotus thrones and formed a series of seals with their hands. Behind them was a bright circle of light that lit up the surroundings. The eighteen old monks chanted at the same time. The sound of the chanting was like thunder, and even those far away could hear it clearly.    

The cultivation of these eighteen people had reached the peak of perfection. As they chanted, there were images of three thousand arhats appearing within the golden light. The scene was extremely shocking.    

"Who are these people? They have such a powerful aura!"    

A female disciple of the Lingxiao Sect muttered in a low voice.    

"You must be outsiders, right? Pay attention to your own words and don't be disrespectful to the holy monk."    

The people beside the female disciples suddenly opened their mouths and berated in a stern voice.    

"That's right, those Sacred Monks are all the First Elders of the Holy Church of Light. They're representatives of the Sacred Sovereign, and they have a very high status. You and I are just mere mortals, so we need to kneel down and greet them."    

The female disciple suddenly said in a cold voice, "What does it have anything to do with us that you worship you?"    

The moment these words were spoken, the expressions of the surrounding crowd immediately darkened.    

The Saint Sovereign could be said to be an extremely noble existence in the hearts of these people. If these people dared not bow down to him, then they would be treated like demons.    

"Hold on. We have just arrived and do not know the rules. Please forgive us."    

Su Xiuhuan immediately stood out to protect her junior sister.    

She then dragged her junior sisters and turned around, preparing to leave.    

However, at this moment, a group of people walked over from all directions and surrounded the girls.    

These people all had ugly expressions and radiated killing intent.    

When Su Xiuhuan and the others saw this situation, they immediately understood what was going on. In a moment of desperation, Su Xiuhuan took out her waist plate and shouted:    

"We are disciples of the Lingxiao Sect, what are you trying to do!"    

The Lingxiao Sect was the number one sect in the Middle Land, and its reputation spread far and wide.    

Usually, as long as a disciple of the Lingxiao Sect went out to gain experience, if he reported his name, the other party would give him some face.    

But now, even though Su Xiuhuan and the others had announced their names, the faces of the surrounding disciples were still gloomy, and they looked at the girls with killing intent.    

"Senior sister, what should we do?" The other female disciples panicked.    

They were surrounded by enemies on all sides, and they were facing a group of madmen.    

Su Xiuhuan also started to panic, but she was still a senior sister after all. After a short period of shock, she quickly regained her senses.    

"There aren't many people near the city gate. We'll gather our forces and rush out from there..."    

In just a short amount of time, Su Xiuhuan had thought of a countermeasure.    

She sent a mental message to the female disciple behind her, but before she could even finish speaking, a gust of wind suddenly blew past her.    

The fierce gust of wind blew the crowd away. Many of the people who were still kneeling on the ground started to fall from side to side, and the crowd was quickly cleared out.
