Everyone exchanged glances, not understanding why Yang An would suddenly be interested in their Cultivation Methods.
But when they thought about it, they only had one life to live. Their Cultivation Methods, on the other hand, were relatively unimportant. The one thing this world didn’t lack was all sorts of Cultivation Methods.
Fair? It was too damn fair! You could even say they were making a killing on this deal.
But what they were more skeptical about was whether Yang An could actually do what he promised.
A few of the Zombie Gods couldn’t read Yang An’s aura, but he was just an External Affairs Elder. In their eyes, he was obviously not as strong as an Internal Affairs Elder. Even if he practiced the Insect Dao, he was surely one of its weakest practitioners.
Their opponents from Great Virtue Temple, on the other hand, practiced the Insect Dao, and every one of those practitioners was a powerhouse. Even Elder Wen Zhao, who was in charge of this region, wouldn’t dare guarantee their survival.
At this thought, everyone hesitated.
"Give it a try. If you live, everyone’s happy. If you die... well, I certainly won’t die. I’ll just have to find another team to boss around."
’What’s there to hesitate about? Don’t tell me the fighting has rattled their brains,’ Yang An grumbled inwardly.
Yang An had his own reasons for proposing such a strange deal to these men.
From now on, he would start collecting vast numbers of different Cultivation Methods, secretly preparing to break the current stalemate.
Hearing this, everyone understood. Whether they agreed to his deal or not, they had to carry out the mission assigned by their superiors. Could they possibly refuse? They immediately nodded in agreement.
The roaring bonfire was extinguished. The black smoke quickly condensed, merging with the dry charcoal into a pile of black, fleshy sludge, which a Zombie God collected and handed to Yang An.
The group of several dozen men immediately advanced the front line on Yang An’s command, heading toward Dragonfly Bamboo Peak. Before they had gone far, they encountered men from the Great Virtue Temple.
The enemy was a squad of Monks led by several Zen Masters, and they had been lying in wait for the people from the Golden Thread Pavilion.
Compared to the Golden Thread Pavilion, the Great Virtue Temple may not have powerful assets like the Immortal Platform, but they had a significant numerical advantage in other areas. They had at least twice as many Zombie Gods and Corpse Transformations.
But unlike mortal wars, battles between Cultivators weren’t won by sheer numbers. It was high-end combat power that typically decided a war’s outcome and direction.
The Great Virtue Temple’s side quickly sounded the alarm and entered a state of combat. While fending off the attack from Yang An’s forces, they also called for support from other fronts. This was precisely why the Great Virtue Temple had been able to hold the Golden Thread Pavilion at a stalemate for so long.
The hundred-odd combatants on both sides immediately clashed, each unleashing their most practiced methods of slaughter.
The clash between dozens of Zombie Gods and hundreds of Corpse Transformations generated a force no less terrifying than a fierce battle between thousands of mortal soldiers. The gore was even worse, and the sheer wickedness of it all would put so-called evil cults to shame. The moment they made contact, the scene became a bloodbath.
Yang An didn’t join the fray, observing from the sidelines instead. He had promised to keep these men alive, and he naturally intended to follow through. The Great Virtue Temple’s forces posed no threat to him; he was merely a little interested in this war between Cultivators, something he had never witnessed before.
He would intervene if necessary, but he couldn’t do everything himself. Otherwise, what was the point of having these subordinates? This was especially true now that he was assigned under Wen Zhao. If they advanced too quickly, it would only lead to more and more trouble.
He could accept Wen Zhao causing trouble for him, but he wasn’t a masochist; he wasn’t about to go out of his way to create more problems for himself.
