These are not ordinary Buddha beads, but they donât seem to be dangerous, and they donât appear to be harmful.
At this moment, the disciples of the Brahma Sect had already distributed all the Buddha beads, put their hands together devoutly, and said.
"Amitabha, please rest assured, our abbot at Yunkong Temple blesses these beads daily; as long as you sincerely commit to Buddhism, you will surely reach ultimate bliss one day."
After saying this, they prepared to leave.
Those who received beads and those who didnât all left with devout expressions, surrounding the Brahma Sect disciples.
This reputation is a bit exaggerated.
Ye Liuyun scanned the crowd, quickly noticing something different.
In a corner of the crowd, a young woman with a beautiful appearance was also following the crowd, surrounding the so-called Brahma masters as they left.
But what really caught Ye Liuyunâs attention was the Buddha beads in the womanâs hand.
Ordinary people might not see it, but with Ye Liuyunâs Innate Realm eyesight, he could detect a faint glow emanating from the beads. The light was very subtle and even less noticeable because it was daytime.
Not just Ye Liuyun.
The disciples of the Brahma Sect evidently noticed the change in the bead as well.
After exchanging glances, they inconspicuously withdrew their gazes and continued to leave.
Is it the beads?
Ye Liuyun squinted his eyes.
No, thatâs not it.
Everyone received the same kind of beads, but only this one was glowing. It must have something to do with the person.
Realizing this, Ye Liuyun carefully observed the woman.
Her appearance, though outstanding, wasnât exceptional, and there seemed to be nothing special otherwise.
Checked her Talent Entry.
Nothing unusual with it either.
Wait a minute! Thereâs something amiss.
"Talent Entry: Lady of the Yin Hour (Blue)"
"Lady of the Yin Hour (Blue): A woman born in a yin year, yin month, and yin time, naturally possessing more yin energy than others."
While not as extreme as the pure yang body, it is indeed a unique constitution.
Looking at others again, indeed.
Only this woman had the special Talent Entry of Lady of the Yin Hour.
Is it because of this?
Canât be certain, but itâs worth paying close attention to.
"Si Nan!"
"Yes, sir?"
Suddenly called by name, Si Nan seemed a bit puzzled.
But upon noticing Ye Liuyunâs eye signals, although curious, Si Nan still understood and nodded.
After the crowd dispersed, Si Nan left as well.
Shi Sheng might have enough strength,
but his mind wasnât as sharp as Si Nanâs. For such matters, Ye Liuyun trusted Si Nan more.
At this time.
Ye Liuyun noticed that behind the County Magistrate, a constable seemed to have thought of something but hesitated to speak.
"What do you want to say?"
With Ye Liuyunâs question, everyoneâs eyes turned to the hesitant constable.
"Reporting to you, sir, I just remembered, this Yunkong Temple seemed to have been established only half a year ago."
There were no temples around Nanmu City before. This Yunkong Temple appeared after Brahma Sect masters came half a year ago, saying they wanted to establish a temple here.
Due to the status of the Brahma Sect, naturally, no one in Nanmu City dared to object.
Besides, being a reputable sect, no one suspected their intentions might be harmful.
Upon hearing this,
the County Magistrate paused, then realized something.
"Indeed, thatâs true. At that time, the abbot from Yunkong Temple even came to see me, but this shouldnât mean anything, right?"
Previously, it hadnât occurred to him.
Simply because he hadnât thought in that direction, the timing coincided by chance.
But the Brahma Sect is a reputable sect, how could they casually abduct ordinary women?
",,,"
Coincidence? Whether it is or not, we need to find out.
Ye Liuyun didnât respond but had thoughts in mind.
Others might fear the Brahma Sectâs reputation, but Ye Liuyun wouldnât. The Brahma Sect is powerful, but conversely, they are also bound by considerations.
Sects like this one, bound to the Jianghu, cannot easily act against a Dynasty.
Not that they lack strength.
Today, if they dared to act against this Dynasty, how could other dynasties ensure theyâre safe from harm?
Ye Liuyun once read a dossier. A hundred years ago, a significant sect, led by a Land Immortal as its Sect Leader, unsatisfied with its current state, acted against a Dynasty, slaughtering the royal family and seizing power.
Upon learning this news,
neighboring dynasties united and subdued them.
A sect with Land Immortal-level power simply disappeared into history, taking only two days.
The news of one rabbitâs death strikes fear in all hares.
Dynasties and sects donât always share friendly relations,
but if a common enemy arises, they invariably unite against it.
Who knows if after destroying one Dynastyâs royal family, theyâll aim for a second, or third.
No ruler would gamble on something like this.
Since that incident,
thereâs been a tacit understanding between dynasties and Jianghu sects.
To grow independently, without interference.
"Donât worry, I have my considerations!"
Seeing the County Magistrateâs worried look, it wasnât hard to guess. He was certainly concerned about the Brahma Sectâs standing in the Jianghu.
Ye Liuyun didnât bother to explain much.
Gesturing with his hand, he directly said.
"Give orders for a full nighttime curfew in the coming days. After nightfall, no one is allowed to wander the streets freely!"
Even if itâs not the Brahma Sect doing this, to abduct those women must occur at night.
There probably wouldnât be anyone.
Bold enough to blatantly abduct people in broad daylight in Nanmu City!
"Understood!"
To the County Magistrate, this kind of matter posed no issue, and he promptly agreed.
