Chapter 227: Unexpected

Hearing Master Hui Nian actually say such a thing, Han Bing couldn't help but be slightly stunned, he didn't expect that this master with advanced cultivation would also accuse His Majesty the Emperor so bluntly.

It seems that there must be something that makes him really angry.

Seeing Han Bing's surprised expression, Master Huinian shook his head and sighed: "Sin! Sin! Lao Na Liugen is not pure, and he is ignorant today, I am afraid that he will break his vows!"

The icy starry eyes blinked several times in succession, and finally figured out why this master, who had always held an upright body, was so angry.

In fact, as soon as he entered the Jishi Temple, Han Bing noticed that the situation in the temple was different, and it seemed that there were many masters lurking in the dark.

However, after careful investigation, he found that the target of these people was the abbot's meditation room, so he did not alarm them, but went directly to the back and came to see Master Hui Nian.

Presumably, Master Huinian had already discovered that a large number of masters had infiltrated the temple, thinking that they were sent by the emperor to snatch the key in Han Bing's hand. Therefore, he decided to help Han Bing and was ready to kill.

But Han Bing knew that Master Huinian was actually completely wrong.

Although those masters who broke into the temple were from Ouchi, they were definitely not sent by the emperor.

Because of this, the situation in front of him has become more and more unpredictable, and it can be said that it has completely escaped from anyone's control.

Previously, Han Bing and his uncle Haoxing Mingrui had jointly formulated a plan to use this opportunity to open the door of the underworld to uproot the Ouchi secret agent hidden in Jishi Temple in one fell swoop.

Haoxing Mingrui's hidden spy in the temple, Monk Zhiming, has already found out that Monk Zhitong, a disciple of Master Huinian, turned out to be a secret agent sent by Zheng Yong in the temple. Moreover, there seems to be another Zhitong accomplice in the temple, whose purpose is obviously to explore the secrets of the underworld.

Although it was difficult for Han Bing and Haoxing Mingrui to guess Zheng Yong's true intention to do this for a while, they still felt that Zheng Yong's move might pose a threat to the Protector Pillar. That's why they made a decision to clear this hidden danger as soon as possible and get rid of the Zhitong monk and his accomplices.

In addition, Han Bing and Haoxing Mingrui naturally had already considered that the emperor would not let go of this opportunity, and he would definitely try to get rid of Han Bing in one fell swoop and seize the key in his hand.

Therefore, when formulating this plan to eliminate traitors, they locked the target person they were going to deal with, the Ouchi secret agent who was placed in the temple by Zheng Yong, and the person sent by the emperor to snatch the key - the Ouchi master or the killer of the Zhongyi Alliance Xingyuntang.

At that time, both Han Bing and Haoxing Mingrui were more inclined to think that the emperor would send Xingyuntang's killers to carry out this killing of Han Bing.

According to their original predictions, those Xingyun Hall killers would definitely ambush him outside the Jishi Temple in advance and intercept him on the spot before Han Bing entered the temple.

Therefore, in response to this expected interception action, Han Bing and Haoxing Mingrui also formulated a corresponding counterattack plan.

According to this counterattack plan, Han Bing will adopt the method of luring the enemy and destroy all the enemies who are ambushed outside the temple before entering the temple.

This wasn't a very difficult thing to do, because Han Bing was completely calculating with his heart.

Those who were lying in ambush outside the temple thought they were the hunters, just waiting for the cold ice to step into their ambush circle unsuspectingly.

And this is exactly the kind of illusion that Cold Ice intends to create for them.

He first pretended to be accidentally ambushed, and in a panic, he naturally instinctively turned around and fled in the direction of Jingyang City.

Those killers had already been strictly ordered to never allow him to leave Jishi Temple alive, and they would definitely bite him and chase him all the way.

Jingyang City is in the west of Jishi Temple, and you have to pass through Cuiwei Mountain along the way.

The area is deep and densely forested, and once you enter it, the advantage of being crowded is gone. Especially on such a moonless and starless night, those Xingyuntang killers who were indiscriminately in the forest would turn into cold prey, allowing them to hunt them down one by one.

After killing all the enemies lying in ambush outside the temple, Han Bing can calmly go to the temple to meet Master Hui Nian and escort Abbot Huijue's Buddha relics into the underworld. Subsequently, he also had to carry out an anti-traitor operation as planned to eliminate the Ouchi secret agent hiding in Jishi Temple.

However, to the surprise of both Han Bing and Haoxing Mingrui, things turned out to take turns one after another, so that the plan they had made before was completely disrupted!

The first unexpected thing was that before Han Bing came to Jishi Temple, after repeated confirmation, the Loyal Alliance did not receive the emperor's decree, and should not participate in this killing of him.

This means that the person the emperor wants to use to deal with cold ice must be his most trusted Ouchi master.

The appearance of this situation, although it inevitably made both Han Bing and Haoxing Mingrui feel a little strange, but it was not completely unexpected. Moreover, in some ways, this is more beneficial to Han Bing, because the Ouchi master is definitely easier to deal with than the Xingyuntang killer.

However, the second unexpected thing that happened was extremely unfavorable to them, and it directly put Han Bing in extreme danger.

When Han Bing arrived at Jishi Temple more than half an hour earlier than the agreed time according to the plan, he was shocked to find that there was no one outside the temple!

The plan to lure the enemy has thus failed. Even if Han Bingdang realizes that the situation has changed, I am afraid that this trip will be more auspicious.

But he thought very clearly, he must not just turn around and go back, but must finish what he had to do. Otherwise, the consequences will be even more severe.

First, according to their original plan, the monk Zhiming, who was pretending to be Master Huinian and staying in the abbot's meditation room, was responsible for luring the enemy, and his identity was likely to be exposed, and he might even be killed by the Ouchi secret agent in the temple.

Second, although the situation is unclear at this time, there must be some terrible conspiracy in it. If he leaves like this, Master Huinian in the temple will probably be in danger.

The third is that if there is no dry key in his hand, Master Huinian will not be able to open the door of the underworld, and the relics of the abbot of Huijue will not be properly placed. This incomparably admirable old man sacrificed his life for the sake of the Pillar of Protector of the Country, how could he not be able to rest in peace after his death?

It was precisely because of the serious consequences that could occur that although Han Bing knew that the original plan had been completely disrupted and that he would be in danger at any time, he still did not hesitate at all and quietly infiltrated the Jishi Temple.

When he entered the temple, he found that a large number of Ouchi masters had already lurked in it.

This made him further confirm his previous judgment that there was a great conspiracy behind all these unexpected things.
