My Wife Is The Leader Of A Demonic Cult

"Once a young man reaches a certain age, he must come to understand, without health, everything is nothing."

An Jing, content after eating the \'loving heart\' porridge made by Zhao Qingmei, then touched his firm waistline and planned to find an excuse to go out.

He had not forgotten that today was not only the Ullambana Festival but also the Cao Gang\'s demon-expelling convention, where he would personally display the severed head of the peerless swordsman, \'Xue Chen\'.

As Tan Yun was tidying up the medicine cabinet, she said, "Son-in-law, today is the Ullambana Festival, I heard there\'s a water and land service. Shall we go and have some fun?"

An Jing paused, and said irritably, "What\'s there to enjoy about the Ullambana Festival? The water and land service is just a few bald monks reciting Buddhist scriptures, you can\'t understand it at all."

The Cao Gang had summoned the four great families of Jiangnan Dao and many experts to discuss dealing with the Demon Sect. Fa Xi Temple would now certainly be swarming with people, filled with numerous experts, so it could be very dangerous if there was any chaos.

If the naive girl Tan Yun were accidentally targeted by someone from the Jianghu, An Jing would have to take extra care to protect her.

"But son-in-law, I want to go and see," Tan Yun said, looking aggrieved.

"Then will you listen to your son-in-law?" An Jing glanced at the heaving front of Tan Yun\'s chest.

"Of course, I will listen to you, son-in-law," Tan Yun quickly replied with a smile, "I\'ll listen to everything you say."

"Alright then, listen to me, don\'t go," An Jing said righteously.

Tan Yun\'s smile froze, and her face looked somewhat stunned.

"Husband, I want to go too."

Zhao Qingmei also came out and looked at An Jing with hopeful eyes, tenderly saying, "We haven\'t gone out to have fun for a long time."

"If the lady also wants to go, then naturally that is fine."

Upon hearing this, An Jing immediately smiled apologetically, "Besides the water and land service, the Ullambana Festival also features lantern releasing, which can be quite interesting…."

Didn\'t you say it was incomprehensible? How come it\'s suddenly interesting now?

At that moment, seeing An Jing suddenly change his tune, Tan Yun pouted her lips and cursed internally, "Disgusting son-in-law, rotten son-in-law, when I said we should go, you said it wasn\'t fun, but when the Sect Hierarch said to go, you immediately changed your face."

I\'m going to remember this, and when I catch you in a big scandal later…

Thinking this, Tan Yun pulled out a small notebook from her sleeve. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"The old man actually finds this water and land service quite interesting."

Li Fuzhou then walked out slowly, dressed impeccably and adjusting his sleeves, he said lightly, "In the water and land service, monks and nuns set up altars to chant scriptures, worship, and confess, providing food and drinks to transfer the souls of all beings from water and land, benefiting spirits from all six paths and four states of existence, that\'s why it\'s called so. Generally, the ones who set up altars to chant the scriptures are high-ranking Buddhist monks. The abbot of this Fa Xi Temple is a high monk from the Western Regions. This water and land service is indeed worth seeing."

Zhao Qingmei chuckled, "I have never seen the Buddhist water and land service before, let\'s go and have a look today."

......

Fa Xi Temple, behind the Great Hall.

Guo Yuchun sat within the rear hall, holding a secret scroll in hand, his eyebrows alternating between furrowed and relaxed.

"Deputy Gang Leader Guo, everything is ready," Ouyang Yu walked in slowly.

"Good, I know,"

Guo Yuchun nodded slightly, "Add another group of people for guards, the more the better. We cannot afford any mistakes."

"Another group?"

Ouyang Yu asked.

The entire Fa Xi Temple, inside and out, was already filled with the Cao Gang\'s secret sentinels, and visibly there were many experts, truly vigilant.

"According to the information I received, the Demon Sect has indeed entered Great Yan," Guo Yuchun stated.

Guo Yuchun narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you think the people of the Demon Sect will let us rise on their reputation?"

Ouyang Yu shook her head.

"That\'s right."

Now, rumors are everywhere saying that Xue Chen has joined the Demon Sect, while the Cao Gang members killed a Demon Sect expert and are planning to show their might at the anti-Demon assembly. This is clearly a provocation to the Demon Sect. If the masters of the Demon Sect found out, how could they possibly not come to disrupt this assembly?

A big game requires not only enough pieces but also corresponding opponents.

The anti-Demon assembly of Guo Yuchun could kill two birds with one stone. If people from the Demon Sect don\'t show up, then the Cao Gang having killed the Demon Sect expert and still holding the anti-Demon assembly is undoubtedly stepping on the Demon Sect to rise, which enhances the prestige of the Cao Gang in Jianghu and lays the foundation for the future Five Gangs Alliance.

If the people from the Demon Sect do appear, then he would have laid a Heaven and Earth Net. Along with the help of the Xuanyi Guard and Buddhist experts, he could deal a heavy blow to the people of the Demon Sect.

And with the Demon Sect being bested under his scheme, the prestige of the Cao Gang would also soar.

Ouyang Yu could naturally see through Guo Yuchun\'s calculations, but she still did not understand why Guo Yuchun wanted to establish his reputation against the Demon Sect.

Although that swordsman really did kill people from the Cao Gang and could possibly belong to the Demon Sect, the Demon Sect was not so easy to provoke.

The Demon Sect was like a fierce tiger in slumber; once awakened, it would devour people.

"I know your doubts."

Guo Yuchun gave a faint smile, "The Demon Sect making a comeback, do you think it\'s just by themselves?"

A chill went through Ouyang Yu\'s heart as she said coldly, "Vice Gang Leader Guo means, someone is collaborating with the Demon Sect?"

Ouyang Yu vaguely knew there were supporters behind the Cao Gang; its rapid development over the decades had secretly shocked those in Jianghu, but few knew that the Cao Gang had backers.

To support a power like the Cao Gang, there are but a few such capable hands in Great Yan. But who might be supporting the Demon Sect?

At this moment, Ouyang Yun realized the Jianghu was not as simple as she had imagined.

Keep in mind that she was one of the seven Vajras of the Cao Gang, a first-rate expert in Jianghu, yet she still felt that the waters were too deep and unfathomable.

"Not so much collusion, but rather mutual benefit," Guo Yuchun said, his smile slightly fading. "You might not need to know the rest, but just know one thing: the Demon Sect is our severe internal threat, and if the Demon Sect intends to make a comeback, the first they will target is our Cao Gang, and likewise, it\'s the same for us. To face this giant, we can only form the Five Gangs Alliance."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Yu was shocked. She had always thought the Five Gangs Alliance was merely a fantasy, an impossible ambition or even wild ambition.

After all, among Jianghu, each of the five major gangs was a top-tier force, occupying various corners of Great Yan. Even the weakest Sanhu Gang had tens of thousands of gang members, and the other four gangs\' power was immensely larger. Such an alliance among these five gangs could instantly become a colossal power.

Even among the seven major sects, only the Zhenyi Sect, Xuanyi Guard, Buddhist Western Regions, and Demon Sect, the true giants, could compete.

Such daunting power, would anyone wish to see its existence?

The ones with such ambitions, no need to think much, surely was someone in Yujing City, or that individual from Zhenyi Mountain, or maybe those few princely heirs.

"Jianghu is far from the court, yet the court is above Jianghu."

Guo Yuchun sighed deeply and said, "To deal with the Demon Sect, relying just on our Cao Gang is far from enough; we also need the banner of great righteousness. We need to learn to \'ride the tiger\'s back.\'"

Ouyang Yu also took a deep breath, "Then if the Demon Sect experts really come..."

She was still somewhat worried, for the name \'Demon Sect\' had deeply etched into her heart.

Guo Yuchun frowned and said, "Xuanyi Guard Gan Yue, being a court official, has the main duty of eradicating the Demon Sect. He has no choice but to act. And Monk Fa Zhi, representing Leiyin Temple from the Western Regions, what does Buddhism desire the most? Besides a nod from that one in Yujing City, it is recognition, the recognition of Great Yan Martial World, and dealing with the Demon Sect is a quick way to achieve it, a method the Great Yan Martial World can\'t refuse."

Guo Yuchun, able to become the chief strategist of the Cao Gang, not only saw through the matters of Jianghu, but also the affairs of the court as clearly as if they were on fire, thoroughly understanding them as if they were at his fingertips.

Where is the world?

The world was in his heart.

"I understand."

Ouyang Yu nodded heavily and said, "I will go now to call for more reinforcements."
