Gongyang Liancheng introduced Li Che and other third-class Guest Officials.
Many Guest Officials immediately responded with a bow and held a salute.
The old monk pressed his palms together and smiled benevolently, "Everyone here is a master of the Wood Carving path. If by observing the Temple God you manage to gain something, it would not be in vain the efforts of the Heart Monkey Temple and the Demon Suppression Bureau in suppressing the Mysterious Temple."
Li Che blended among the many Guest Officials, also holding a salute.
However, a thought crossed Li Che's mind, and he activated the Seven Elements Corpse Curse Mother-and-Child Seal to probe whether the two masters from the Heart Monkey Temple were related to the Corpse God Cult.
What?
As soon as Li Che activated it, the Seven Elements Corpse Curse Mother-and-Child Seal supremely tremored within the Heaven and Earth chessboard.
Li Che raised an eyebrow and immediately brought over an ambergold Heavenly King Divine Chess Piece.
He firmly suppressed the Mother-and-Child Seal.
Through the Heaven and Earth chessboard, Li Che then saw Master Xuanli and Grandmaster Xuanyuan from the Heart Monkey Temple...
their bodies exuding a dense Death Qi and Corpse Qi, so potent it nearly seemed to morph into evil spirits breaking out of Hell!
My goodness!
Li Che was startled and inwardly exclaimed, what a find.
Are these fellow Corpse God Cult evil people disguised as monks?
Li Che's mind was subtly alert, yet his expression remained unreadable, having mastered over the years the skill to keep his face as still as an ancient well.n/oÌ/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ordinary people cannot detect the Corpse Curse Mark, which is why the evil ones from the Corpse God Cult could freely corrupt many high ranks within the Golden Light Prefecture.
Because, even if marked, it would remain unknown, allowing them to conceal their malevolence.
So, even if marked, what of it?
However, ever since the Bull Demon appeared in Golden Light Prefecture City, everything changed.
The Bull Demon could actually discover those marked by the Corpse God Cult, a severe blow to these evildoers.
The two masters naturally did not know that Li Che had already discovered their true identities under their kind appearances.
Li Che didn't expose them.
To expose them now would be unwise. He had control over the Thunder Chess Piece, which kept him safe, allowing him to leave whenever he wished.
"This Xuanjiu, he better not mess up our plans."
Grandmaster Xuanyuan's brows relaxed at once, "Perhaps Xuanjiu plans to use the Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses inside the Strange Temple to restore his Silver Gang strength... Send him a message asking him not to interfere with our plans."
Master Xuanli nodded, feeling it made sense.

The sharp winds and heavy snow continued whipping through the mountain path for a moment.
Everyone was a cultivator, having the strength of a Woodcarving Master does not leave one weakened by environmental factors, thus not slowing their journey.
In roughly the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, Li Che and his companions reached the front of the Mysterious Temple.
Fire Eye Mystical Awe Spirit Ape Strange Temple!
Located on the mountainside, yet it enveloped the entire slopes.
Here, Li Che even saw several old village sites.
Clearly, this Strange Temple originally sprouted from the village, and now that the village had perished, the Strange Temple had expanded to its utmost.
Thick gray fog tumbled, blended with the snowstorm, making it seem like a temple located in a smoke-filled, alternate dimension.
Temple Control Bureau's Divine Envoys had set up barriers around it.
Preventing cultivators without a Temple Entry Order from entering.
Compared to the security of the Four Royal Mysterious Temples, this was considerably weaker.
Eight Extremes Guaiyi Temple had already cultivated a Strange Que. Li Che curiously observed the Strange Que, recalling how the City Lord Cao Guang of Flying Thunder City had planned to stage a Thousand Infants Banquet to promote the Strange Temple to a higher rank and produce a Strange Que.
Unfortunately, Li Che had disrupted that plan.
Because there was a Temple Entry Order, and it wasn't the first time the Qintian Observatory brought Woodcarving Masters here to observe the Temple God.
Thus, the chief officer of the Temple Control Bureau, after a simple check, allowed them to pass.
An incense burner appeared in the chief officer's hand, and after lighting three incense sticks,
carried the burner forward.
