Meng Qi kept a safe distance from You Hongbo, not daring to get too close in case Xiang Shen discovered him. It wasn't until the door closed that he was certain Xiang Shen had appeared, and with all his might, he sprinted over using his lightness skill.

  He jumped into the room with a flourish, slowly closing the window, waiting for Tuzi to speak first, lest he unknowingly violate some rule of the Twelve Xiangshen.

  Looking at Shen Huan's leisurely appearance as if he had returned home, You Hongbo was both angry and annoyed. He had always thought of himself as clever, but unexpectedly, just because he was anxious about the loss of the package, he was targeted by two great gods, Mao Tu and Shen Huan, and in his haste, he was completely unguarded.

  "What are you doing here?" Maotou couldn't help but speak up first.

  Meng Qi chuckled: "Of course, we'll catch Yu San and exchange him for the White Jade Buddha statue. Otherwise, with over a dozen masters surrounding the statue, even if I had three heads and six arms, I wouldn't be able to steal it."

  He had already thought of a reason, but in his heart he was muttering to himself. If he really had three heads and six arms, even if he had mastered the seventy-two transformations, even if an expert filled the room, he could still easily steal the Buddha statue.

  "How could you so brazenly steal a Buddha statue?" Mǎo Tù didn't show any suspicion, instead asking about the theft of the statue and the note.

  "A task I accepted earlier can't be completed without making a big deal out of it." Meng Qi replied vaguely.

  As for other people's tasks, it's inconvenient to ask too much. He nodded: "My task is to take away You Hongbo, don't compete with me."

  "It doesn't matter, as long as You Hongbo is missing, isn't it easy to deal with You Tongguang?" Meng Qi replied nonchalantly, but suddenly his eyes narrowed and he looked towards the closed window, saying in a low voice, "Bai Yi Jian Shen..."

  The rabbit's eyes widened in shock, its ears perked up to listen to the commotion outside, but suddenly it saw the shadow of the monkey flash by and pounce on itself like a ghost, both hands pointing straight at its chest.

  Under the sudden attack, she dodged and weaved but couldn't avoid it, so she could only retaliate with her teeth and eyes, both hands grabbing at Meng Qi's chest.

  She didn't believe that she, who was skilled in hand-to-hand combat techniques, would lose to Shen Hou, who only excelled at knife fighting!

  Her speed was faster than Meng Qi's, her ten fingers gleaming with dark light as she seized several major acupoints on his chest.

  Dark golden light flashed by, and the rabbit only felt that its paws had struck gold and stone, causing unbearable pain. Then, it felt a numbness in its chest and stood frozen on the spot.

  Meng Qi took a few deep breaths, adjusted his breathing, and let the numbness in his chest dissipate. This rabbit's acupoint technique was quite special, and it could actually slightly penetrate the Golden Bell Shield's defense, affecting his own acupoints. If he hadn't deliberately avoided the Zhongzheng Gate, it would have been a situation where both sides suffered losses.

  "It seems that one can never underestimate others' skills and can't always be so simple and rough..." Meng Qi concluded to himself.

  He knew he understood very little about the internal affairs of the Twelve Gods, and any slight mistake would arouse suspicion. Therefore, from start to finish, he didn't think of deceiving her with lies, but instead planned to directly capture her, interrogate her about the secrets and codes of the Twelve Gods, as well as details of their conversations, in order to smoothly infiltrate and complete his side quest.

  "What do you want to do?" asked the terrified rabbit.

  Meng Qi didn't answer, directly sealing her and You Hongbo's acupoints, then dragging them away.

  This is not a good place for interrogation messages.

  As soon as Meng Qi stepped into the yard, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. Underneath his mischievous monkey-like face was a solemn expression.

  Under the wutong tree in the courtyard, fallen leaves swirled around, white clothes outshone the snow, a long sword emitted a cold glow, attracting all attention.

  The man with a sword had a tall and slender figure, his eyebrows were like a wandering dragon, his nose was like a hanging gallbladder, his white clothes were spotless, and amidst the coldness, there was a hint of decisiveness.

  He has a striking appearance, but everyone will ignore this point and only notice his deep and sharp black pupils.

  White Robed Sword God, Luo Qing!

  Meng Qi's heart almost helplessly echoed this name, was he really a jinx, speaking of him and he would come?

  Luo Qing stared at Meng Qi, his voice cold and detached: "Twelve Heavenly Gods, your crimes are heinous, you must be executed."

  Then he raised his sword and said calmly: "Draw your sword."

  I can say I'm not Shēn Hóu, right?... Meng Qi wasn't clear about Luo Qing's stance, so naturally he couldn't reveal his identity. He put down Mǎo Tù and Yóu Hóngbó, pulled out the Jie knife with his right hand, and immersed his mind inward. His left hand touched the Ba Yuè Lí Huā needle.

  The long sword flashed out, and all the light in the entire courtyard seemed to converge on the sword. The cold light shone brightly, making one's skin feel a chill.

  Within Meng Qi's line of sight, there was only that sword light, it occupied all space, obscured the sky, and came from all sides, vast and unstoppable.

  The power of one sword, terror is thus!

  Meng Qi knew that his senses had been thoroughly affected, but he also knew that at this time, there was no way to distinguish where the real long sword came from. Even if he set up a defense of copper walls and iron walls, it would only be a "copper wall and iron wall" after being affected by his senses, with holes all over the place in reality.

  Lu Qing's opening move was also a spiritual secret, no wonder he dared to challenge Cui Xuan as soon as he entered the sect!

  And he is even more terrifying than Cui Xuan, not because he is as elusive as a ghost, but because his swordsmanship is all-encompassing, and the "Violent Rain and Pear Flower Needle" can only defend against one direction, leaving him helpless!

  Meng Qi closed his eyes, gathered his hearing, and forgot about his skin. The entire world suddenly became quiet, as if he was chanting scriptures in a Buddhist hall, as if he was meditating to forget himself, as if it was the morning bell and evening drum.

  Then, the long sword rose, the Buddha statue collapsed, the noise entered the ears, and the bell drum was damaged!

  The sword intent burst out, without any concealment, Meng Qi miraculously grasped the trajectory of Luo Qing's incoming sword.

  Luo Qing's expression was slightly dazed, as if disturbed by the knife intent, and his long sword slowed down a bit.

  Just as Meng Qi was about to strike "Duan Qing Jing" at Luo Qing, seven or eight people suddenly flew in from outside the courtyard. Some had bare hands, some grasped long clubs, and they were armed with various weapons. However, they all shared one thing in common - they wore masks, each representing a different animal: mouse, tiger, cow, snake, etc.

  Twelve Deities

  Meng Qi was shocked, "Duan Qing Jing" did not come out, and these seven or eight targets were not Meng Qi. Taking advantage of Luo Qing's slight daze, swords and knives clashed, sticks and clubs attacked, and the killing intent was overwhelming.

  Luo Qing's long sword made a single stroke, and the majority of the divine weapons mysteriously changed direction on their own, striking empty air. Only Zi Shu, with palms flying in all directions, managed to get close to Luo Qing's side.

  Luo Qing's expression didn't change, his long sword moved down and directly used the hilt to poke at Zi Shu's palms.

  They used me to assassinate Luo Qing?

  Seeing this, Meng Qi was greatly shocked. Fortunately, he didn't actually use "Duan Qing Jing", or else people would have known his trump card. It's a small matter to lose power after using it, but encountering these ferocious and evil Xiang Shen afterwards would truly be a disaster.

  At this time, a melee was underway, and it was unknown whether there were any more ambushes outside. Meng Qi did not want to get entangled, so he grabbed You Hongbo and fled outward.

  Although I didn't know where I had revealed my flaws, the current situation proves that the Twelve Phases God had already seen through my identity and set a trap for me. He used the matter of You Hongbo to lure me into a duel with Luo Qing, and at the critical moment, he suddenly made a move to assassinate Luo Qing!

  So it doesn't matter whether we catch the rabbit or not.

  All the gods of Xiang were fighting against the White Robed Sword God, no one stopped Meng Qi from disappearing into thin air, only Mao Tu slowly stood up, gazing at Meng Qi's back.

  She actually didn't seal off the acupoint!

  "Your acupuncture skills are too poor, and you still want to trick me...". She said with gritted teeth, but she knew that her strength was far inferior to Meng Qi's, so she didn't dare to pursue it.

  Far away from the Great Compassion Temple, after circling around several times, Meng Qi finally slowed down his pace, and doubts arose in his mind:

  "How did I reveal my horse's hoof?"

  "Why are they so sure I can interfere with or rival Luo Qingyi and not get killed instantly?"

  "They actually dared to assassinate the Grandmaster..."

  …………

  The next night, Meng Qi sneaked to the vicinity of You Fu, looking around, and found that all the places where people could hide were filled with people!

  Many people from the martial arts world came to watch Shen Monkey steal the Buddha, one is that this is a worth-boasting sight, two is to try their luck, if they can catch Shen Monkey?

  "Master Zhen Ding, over here, over here!" Meng Qi looked up to see that the four of them were hiding on the beam under the eaves.

  "Zhen Ding Fa Shi, there is only room for you here." Ding Dao Gu also said in a low voice.

  Meng Qi's mouth twitched, was this a concert venue or a gangster's den?

  Climbing onto the beam, Meng Qi looked at the Yu residence in the distance and asked softly: "Has Shen Hou not arrived yet?"

  "No, I heard that Huo Caishen and twenty other top-notch experts have surrounded the Buddha statue in the center, no one can steal it." Nie Yao said, revealing the information she had gathered.

  …………

  Inside the main hall of the You family, a square table was set up, on which a white jade Buddha statue was placed. With You Tongguang at the lead, twenty top-notch experts surrounded it, so tightly that not even a bird could fly in or an insect crawl in.

  "Old You, what else are you worried about? Even if it's the Sect Master, they can only try to take it by force. How could Shen Hou possibly be the Sect Master?" A elderly man wearing a Fu Lu robe chuckled and said.

  "You Tong Guang sighed: 'I'm always restless.'"

  The words had barely fallen when a loud rumbling sound came, shaking the house slightly.

  "Thunderbolt Hall's Heavenly Thunder Child?" an old man exclaimed.

  "Beware of the monkey tricking the tiger to leave the mountain!" Yu Tongguang loudly reminded, and everyone turned their backs on Fang's table, guarding all entrances, guarding the roof.

  At this time, someone shouted from afar:

  "Third Master has been caught!"

  "Third Master has been caught!"

  You Tong Guang's face changed greatly: "Please everyone hold on, I'll go save Dogzi."

  Jade Buddha is more important than having sons!

  Others had nothing to say, but instead speculated that Yu Hongbo was the real target of Shen Hui's attack, and the Buddha statue was just a diversionary tactic.

  In the discussion, You Tongguang has already caught up, and they continue to be on guard.

  After a while, the commotion gradually subsided. Yu Tong led Yu Hongbo back with a dejected look. As soon as he stepped inside, his expression suddenly froze, and his eyes fixed on something behind everyone else.

  "What's wrong, Old Yu?" someone whispered nervously.

  Yu Tong Guang pointed behind them: "The Jade Buddha has been stolen..."

  Everyone was shocked and turned their heads, only to find that there was still a white jade Buddha statue on the square table, with only one piece of paper lying alone there!

  "Thank you for your gift, I am deeply grateful, respectfully bowing to you."

  Someone murmured.
