Chapter 304
"Master, something terrible has happened."
"Made Ying Zheng actually ordered the direct slaughter of our Daoist members."
"When I was leaving Xianyang City, quite a few Daoist members had already been captured by Made Ying Zheng."
When Xiao Meng saw Bei Mingzi, she told him the news she had learned.
At this moment, Bei Mingzi had already known such a result the moment his identity was exposed.
"Go, leave here quickly."
Bei Mingzi had only initially adjusted his body.
But he was still in a state of severe injury.
Seeing Xiao Meng was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
As for those Daoist members who had already been captured by Great Qin,
he could only say he had the heart but lacked the strength.
After speaking, he turned and left in the direction away from Xianyang City, his speed exceptionally fast.
Although Xiao Meng did not know what exactly happened tonight,
but seeing her master's pale appearance, plus the turmoil tonight,
she also guessed that some major event must have happened tonight.
Seeing her master remain silent, Xiao Meng did not pursue the question further.
The two moved rapidly toward the Daoist School's secret gathering point.
As one of the Hundred Schools of Thought, every family had its own gathering point.
Some gathering points of the Hundred Schools of Thought were in the open.
While others were secret, completely impossible for people to investigate.
The Daoist School also had such a gathering point near Xianyang City.
By the time Bei Mingzi arrived at the gathering point, quite a few well-informed Daoist members had also returned here.
"What exactly happened?"
"I don't know either; just as I entered Xianyang City today, those iron cavalry directly took action against me."
"If I hadn't dodged fast, I would have been captured by them tonight."
Those gathered here were all Daoist members who had successfully escaped from Xianyang City tonight.
"Order the blockade of this place, and then summon all Daoist members."
Just as he arrived at this secret gathering point, Bei Mingzi gave instructions to the people below.
Looking at his serious face.
Those people below dared not delay any longer.
They immediately issued the Daoist summoning order.
All Daoist members gathered outside, the moment they received the news, realized that something was terribly wrong.
Only when a life-and-death event occurred would such a signal be issued.
Under normal circumstances, if they wanted to notify news, they would use written forms.
Everyone who received the news immediately rushed to the secret gathering point.
Having learned the true identity of one of the true culprits behind the scenes.
Ying Mo naturally would not stay in Xianyang City for long and directly took Lu Li and left Xianyang City.
And the wounds on Lu Li's body also slowly recovered under one of Ying Mo's pills.
"Young Master, what should we do next?"
Lu Li looked at Ying Mo.
"Issue an order to have all forces immediately capture the Daoist members distributed in various places."
"I want to wipe out the entire Daoist School."
"I want them to know that I will not let off a single person who participated in the events of that year."
Ying Mo's voice was cold and ruthless.
Even among these Daoists, there might be those who were unaware.
But he did not intend to let these people off either.
If he let these people off, who would let off the thirty thousand Annan Army soldiers from back then?
Weren't those thirty thousand Annan Army soldiers also unaware of anything?
Having received Ying Mo's order, Lu Li immediately turned and left.
In a courtyard.
"What orders does the Young Master have?"
Lu Bing withdrew the blade in his hand and then looked at Lu Li beside him.
If the Embroidered Uniform Guard had no important matters, he would generally train newcomers here.
And Lu Li was clear about Lu Bing's whereabouts.
"Mobilize all the Embroidered Uniform Guards to behead all Daoist members; kill them all."
Lu Li spoke Ying Mo's order.
Lu Bing lifted his eyes to look at Lu Li.
Lu Li soon understood Lu Bing's meaning.
"The Young Master drew out the big fish behind the scenes, and one of them is the Daoist Bei Mingzi."
Hearing Lu Li's explanation, Lu Bing stood up from his chair with a start.
"What did you say?"
"You mean the Daoist School also participated in it back then?"
In Lu Bing's tone, there was a hint of disbelief.
He had originally thought that everyone who participated in this matter was a court official.
And the focus of his investigation was also entirely on these court officials.
Yet he did not expect that among the Hundred Schools of Thought, quite a few people also participated in this matter.
Don't look at it as just Bei Mingzi, the only true culprit behind the scenes investigated.
It's not certain that Bei Mingzi was just the only true culprit who surfaced.
There were quite a few other Hundred Schools of Thought who also participated in the plan back then.
"This is truly outrageous!"
"I originally always thought that besides those few officials, there weren't many people who were the true culprits behind the scenes who participated in the plan back then."
"Now it seems that the hands of those Hundred Schools of Thought are likely not clean either."
