The Imperial Guard grinned widely, cackling without any remorse for their ruthless actions.

Obviously, beauty was worthless compared to battle achievements!

The old nun's death was completely unexpected.

Not only were the nuns of Jing'an Temple taken by surprise, but even the Imperial Guard was bewildered.

Then, everyone exploded simultaneously!

The nuns cried and wept, pointing at the Imperial Guard and scolding them loudly, overwhelmed with grief and anger.

Meanwhile, the Imperial Guard shifted their gaze from their comrade who just achieved a first-class merit, drawing their swords, ready to fight.

Hui Yan was completely stunned.

He hadn't expected the Imperial Guard to act so ruthlessly without any pretense.

By the time he reacted, the blood of the old nun had turned cold.

"That, that was Master Nun Huijue..."

Hui Yan's mouth twitched as he explained to Zuo Xiaoluo, "Grand General, Master Nun Huijue was deeply versed in Buddhist Dharma, with significant influence within the Buddhist Sect..."

"I can see that!" Zuo Xiaoluo nodded.

Jing'an Temple had a prime location, situated at the mouth of Sumeru Mountain.

Buddhist pilgrims climbing the mountain to worship the Buddha had to pass through Jing'an Temple first.

Jing'an Temple was, beside Little Leiyin Temple, the temple with the most prosperous incense offerings.

Master Nun Huijue must have had considerable strength to guard such a good place.

Zuo Xiaoluo glanced around inside Jing'an Temple and nodded slightly.

Jing'an Temple was wealthy; the exterior of its buildings looked unremarkable, but its interior decoration was something remarkable.

Zuo Xiaoluo even saw a famous tree growing better than the one in the Crown Prince's Mansion.

Although Zuo Xiaoluo did not recognize what kind of tree it was, she knew Zhao Yi treasured his tree dearly.

Since Zhao Yi liked it, Zuo Xiaoluo definitely intended to take it back for him.

Zuo Xiaoluo warned, "Be gentle with everything, don't damage anything."

Hui Yan was a bit surprised to hear Zuo Xiaoluo's words.

He had seen Zuo Xiaoluo's fierce demeanor earlier and thought she intended to annihilate the Buddhist Sect completely.

Now it seemed she intended to show mercy.

Hui Yan immediately felt relieved, thinking to himself, "The Grand General is not as difficult to deal with as she seems!"

Hui Yan was not too surprised.

Zuo Xiaoluo was not only the Grand General of the North, but also a woman.

Jing'an Temple was full of nuns.

Unless there was deep resentment, most people would not trouble a group of nuns.

It was just a pity for Master Nun Huijue.

Hui Yan looked over at Master Nun Huijue's bald head lying on the ground.

Master Nun Huijue, indeed, was an eighth-tier Ascension Realm Great Cultivator.

Normally, when a person's head is cut off, blood does not flow out, and the skin turns an unsightly blue-purple color.

Master Nun Huijue was different.

After her head was severed, her blood did not immediately lose its vitality but flowed out through the fracture in her chin.

Her bald head was still shiny.

Apart from her eyes being wide open, looking as if she died with a grievance, appearing somewhat creepy.

Her skin was slightly pale.

Master Nun Huijue's facial expression was vivid, as if she were still alive.

"What a pity." Hui Yan shook his head internally.

Master Nun Huijue was once the most beautiful nun on Sumeru Mountain, and many abbots of Buddhist Sect temples had an inseparable friendship with her in their youth.

If Master Nun Huijue could have been persuaded, it would have greatly aided Hui Yan in controlling the Buddhist Sect.

But now, it's too late for anything.

While Hui Yan was pondering, he suddenly heard shouts of killing around him.

He was initially stunned, then suddenly raised his head to look.

He then saw a group of Imperial Guard, like wolves and tigers, rushing into Jing'an Temple, slaughtering the female nuns inside as if mowing grass.

These people were highly skilled, their methods quick and clean, able to perfectly control even the splatter of blood while killing.

"Grand General, are you..." Hui Yan was shocked.

Wasn't everything fine just a second ago?

How did they start killing in the next second?

Was it so erratic and unpredictable?

Hui Yan only knew that most of the Zhao royal family members were mad, never heard that the Grand General was also not normal?

Zuo Xiaoluo turned her head, asking in confusion, "What's wrong?"

In the midst of their conversation, the nuns of Jing'an Temple had already been killed.

The Imperial Guard was driven mad for battle achievements.

No matter if it was an eighteen-year-old young nun or a wrinkled old nun, they all fell in a pool of blood without leaving a single one alive.

Hui Yan: "...nothing, nothing."

Everyone was dead.

At this point, saying anything about sparing them was pointless.

It would only anger the Imperial Guard further!

There were only so many nuns in Jing'an Temple, but there were thousands of Imperial Guard under Zuo Xiaoluo.

Too many monks, too little stew.

Many of the Imperial Guard had been unable to squeeze in earlier.

Seeing their comrades gain merits, their eyes had turned red.

If Hui Yan dared to ask Zuo Xiaoluo to show mercy, he might get shot in the back!

Zuo Xiaoluo gave Hui Yan a strange look, feeling that this monk seemed mentally unstable, mumbling to himself like a lunatic.

If Hui Yan knew Zuo Xiaoluo thought he was like a lunatic, he would be furious.

Seeing Zuo Xiaoluo's odd expression, he quickly said, "Grand General, let me take you to the next place. The next one is Vajra Temple, the abbot Hui Lun is a Tier Nine Saint King Realm cultivator, practicing the Sutra of the Unmoving Ming King, nicknamed 'Furious Bright King', ranking among the top Great Cultivators in the entire Buddhist Sect!"

"How does he compare to you?" Zuo Xiaoluo asked.

Hui Yan, hearing this, proudly said, "Although Hui Lun is not weak in cultivation, he is slightly inferior to me!"

Hearing this, Zuo Xiaoluo nodded and casually said, "If he can't even beat you, it's not a big problem!"

Hui Yan: "..."

What does that mean?

What does it mean that if he can't beat me, it's not a big problem?
