Yang Haoran's true strength was unknown to everyone except Xu ijing, and even among the living, no one knew. The old woman who had just been killed was no exception.
The old woman's strength was only diocre in the realm of the Black Talisman Master, compared to Wang Yiming, who had recently broken through to this realm. However, compared to Wang Yiming's master, Zhang Changqing, her strength was significantly weaker.
Yang Haoran didn't even put Zhang Changqing's strength in his eyes, so how could he possibly take the old woman seriously? But tragically, she didn't know any of this and still thought Yang Haoran's strength was weaker than hers. As a result, she was easily defeated by Yang Haoran, who only used a small portion of his power.
After collecting the old woman's soul, Yang Haoran arrived in front of Wang Yiming and Jiang Die. At this ti, their physical bodies were still immobilized by the Immobilization Talisman, with several circles of Talisman Spirit Power ropes binding them.
The two lay on the ground, unable to move or speak, but they could see and hear everything, and their consciousness was clear. They knew exactly what had just happened.
They had thought they were dood, but they didn't expect such a huge reversal. This left them both in shock, and they still hadn't recovered when Yang Haoran arrived in front of them.
Yang Haoran waved his hand, and a stream of Yin spirit power burst out, transforming into fist-sized skulls that bit through the Talisman Spirit Power ropes binding them. The skulls then rged into their bodies, dispelling the Immobilization Talisman's power from the inside out, allowing the two to finally regain their freedom.
At this ti, Yang Haoran's thod was not a Ghost Technique, but simply a product of his Yin spirit power. Although its power couldn't compare to a Ghost Technique, it was more than enough to break the shackles on their bodies.
After regaining their freedom, the two finally recovered from their shock. Yang Haoran squatted down and helped Wang Yiming up, but didn't bother with Jiang Die, thinking that if she could stand up, she would, and if not, she could just sit on the ground and take it easy.
"Brother Yang, I thought..."
Wang Yiming's face was filled with sha as Yang Haoran helped him up.
Yang Haoran knew what he wanted to say and interrupted him to avoid embarrassing Wang Yiming.
"We'll talk about it later."
Wang Yiming nodded, and Jiang Die also struggled to her feet at this ti.
"You two go in, I'll wait outside."
Jiang Die wiped away the dried blood from the corner of her mouth and said with a serious face.
Although the situation had taken a huge turn, Yang Haoran was not the collaborator with the old woman that she had thought. However, her resentnt towards Yang Haoran had not completely disappeared.
Yang Haoran didn't want to bother with this woman, but considering Wang Yiming, he was willing to try to persuade her. If she still refused to listen, then he could only let her be.
"You've co this far, what's the point of doing so much? In your current state, if you stay outside and encounter pursuers, I can't guarantee I can rescue you in ti."
Yang Haoran smiled faintly as he tried to persuade Jiang Die.
"Uncle, listen to Brother Yang, it's too dangerous to stay outside."
Wang Yiming knew about the small conflict between Yang Haoran and Jiang Die, but in his opinion, it was nothing worth dwelling on. It would pass, and there was no need to continue to harbor grudges.
Moreover, he felt that Yang Haoran's words were very reasonable. Given Jiang Die's current state, staying outside was indeed very dangerous. If pursuers really ca, Jiang Die fundantally didn't have the ability to resist them.
Jiang Die didn't say a word, she hesitated for a mont, then nodded slightly towards Wang Yiming.
Under Yang Haoran's lead, the two entered the villa, where Xiu Juan efficiently prepared tea for the three of them.
In the living room, Yang Haoran smoked and drank tea while inquiring about the situation with Wang Yiming. As a black talisman master of Lecheng Fu Sect, why were they being pursued by another black talisman master, and even accused of being traitors?
Wang Yiming didn't hide anything, telling the whole story from start to finish.
It turned out that after Wang Yiming left Yang Haoran's place, he imdiately rushed back to Fu Sect to handle his master Zhang Changqing's aftermath.
When Zhang Changqing's death was reported to Fu Sect, it shook the entire Lecheng Fu Sect. After all, Zhang Changqing was the number one person in Lecheng Fu Sect, and his sudden death made it difficult for the sect not to be shaken. At the sa ti, it also gave so people an opportunity.
According to Fu Sect's rules, when the number one person in a region died, they had to notify the higher-ups imdiately. The higher-ups would send soone to handle the matter and select a new number one person to take over the previous person's work.
Wang Yiming originally wanted to follow the procedure, but was blocked by the old lady. The old lady's reasoning was simple: without seeing Zhang Changqing's corpse, they couldn't confirm that Zhang Changqing was dead. If they reported this to the higher-ups, and Zhang Changqing appeared again, it would definitely trigger strong dissatisfaction from above, affecting the entire Lecheng Fu Sect.
The old lady's words gained the support of many talisman masters, because Zhang Changqing's death was only Wang Yiming's one-sided account. Except for Wang Yiming, no one else could prove that Zhang Changqing was dead.
Wang Yiming, of course, was very clear about whether Zhang Changqing was dead or not. Besides him, there were others who knew the truth. To prove that Zhang Changqing was indeed dead, Wang Yiming planned to find other witnesses to testify to Zhang Changqing's death, so he could quickly handle his master's aftermath and show his last respects as a disciple.
However, before he could take action, he was imprisoned by the old lady, accused of demonizing the crowd and plotting against the sect. Without a thorough investigation, he couldn't go anywhere and was imprisoned in Fu Sect.
The old lady imprisoned Wang Yiming, pretending to investigate the matter, but in reality, she was eliminating dissidents and strengthening her own power.
Where there are people, there will be struggles, and even within the sa organization, it's no exception. If soone is in charge, it's fine, but without a leader, it's very likely that people will fight for their own interests or due to differences in opinion.
Before Zhang Changqing's death, the entire Lecheng Fu Sect had him in charge, and his power was also the strongest among all talisman masters in Lecheng Fu Sect, so others didn't dare to make a move.
But after his death, the phenonon of fighting for power and profit erged, with the old lady as the leader.
When Wang Yiming told the story of Zhang Changqing's death, he was very detailed, and the old lady listened very carefully, observing Wang Yiming's expression closely. So, she was certain that Wang Yiming wasn't lying, and Zhang Changqing was indeed dead as Wang Yiming said.
She denied Zhang Changqing's death just to buy ti for herself, to prepare and avoid being influenced by Wang Yiming. She directly frad Wang Yiming, imprisoning him.
During the old lady's elimination of dissidents, so other talisman masters also sensed that sothing was off. So even understood what was going on, and so chose to take sides, but more people were still observing, not daring to take a stand.
Jiang Die had always been part of Zhang Changqing's faction, and she understood the situation. She secretly contacted people from her faction and began planning to rescue Wang Yiming.
A fierce struggle began, and Wang Yiming was successfully rescued by Jiang Die, but the two were accused of being traitors. The old lady also acknowledged Zhang Changqing's death, but to achieve her goal, she directly pinned Zhang Changqing's death on Wang Yiming and Jiang Die, announcing to the public that the two had colluded to kill Zhang Changqing, in order to control the entire Lecheng Fu Sect.
The two couldn't resist the old lady, and eventually escaped to seek Yang Haoran's help, which led to the scene Yang Haoran witnessed.
The old lady didn't imdiately kill the two, but instead wanted to bring them back to Fu Sect for a public trial, to fabricate evidence and sentence them to death. After that, she would report Zhang Changqing's death, and by then, the entire Fu Sect would be under her control, with the cri pinned on the dead Wang Yiming and Jiang Die. She would naturally be the one to take over as the new number one person.
