Du Yuexin gazed up at the sky and sighed deeply: "This place was originally for tranquil cultivation, yet after hundreds of years, it has devolved into a scene of unscrupulous plundering. How can a nunnery possess hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land, a vast stretch of water, and extensively collect land taxes? Where is the original intent of the Buddhist path? I offer you two a choice: to abandon all these properties, mountains, forests, and waters, returning to the original intent of the Buddhist path, or to force me to dissolve Luohua Temple today?"

Miao Yu raised her head slowly, took a deep breath, and clasped her hands in front of her chest: "Amitabha, I fully accept Sister’s decree. I will immediately hand over these seventy-nine people to Mr. Su, along with all assets to the government. I shall enter the Buddhist Hall to repent, not returning until I recover the original Buddhist intent."

Her hand made a gentle circle, pulling seventy-nine people from all over the mountain.

With a thud, they were thrown in front of Lin Xiaosu.

Realizing there was no way out, someone shouted angrily, "Kill this dog official!"

With a whoosh, the entire group surged forth, brimming with murderous intent, rushing towards Lin Xiaosu, attempting to tread on his corpse to embark on their path of escape in the Jianghu.

Indeed, all seventy-nine individuals were well-versed in the true martial arts of Luohua Temple.

This collective assault was overwhelmingly powerful, their figure shadows covering the sky, the momentum earth-shaking.

However, Master Miao Yu’s face turned exceedingly grim. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

All the people from Luohua Temple also looked equally appalled.

Because with this charge, all traces of Buddhist characteristics vanished from their being, really affirming what Lin Xiaosu and the others had said—their slaughtering knives had not truly been laid down!

They had merely been hidden!

When a crisis arrives, their true nature still emerges.

Facing this vast expanse of figure shadows, Lin Xiaosu smiled and waved his hand lightly. In an instant, it seemed as though autumn had departed, and the world turned into Misty Rain Jiangnan.

Seventy-nine people plunged headfirst into this domain, their Dantians rupturing, they fell from the sky one by one.

"Zhang Tao!"

"Here!"

"Take them all away!"

"Yes!"

With a gesture from Zhang Tao, a battleship sliced through the air, the flagship guarded by Kuang Lang.

Zhang Tao waved his hand, and the seventy-nine people fallen to the ground were simultaneously sent aboard the flagship.

Lin Xiaosu extended his hand to Master Miao Yu: "Hand over the deeds!"

Four words, blunt and direct.

Master Miao Yu looked at him for a long time, finally saying: "Amitabha, Sister Miao Shen, hand all the deeds to Mr. Su!"

Miao Shen reached back, bringing a box out of thin air, it landed in her hand, she handed it over, containing all of Luohua Temple’s yields over the past few millennia.

"Ladies, do not blame this official for being too harsh. In many years, you will understand, today’s loss is Luohua Temple’s greatest gain!" said Lin Xiaosu. "Withdraw the troops!"

His figure drifted upwards and landed on the flagship.

Zhang Tao and Gu Suixin followed suit.

The flagship turned mid-air and vanished into nothingness.

Du Yuexin’s eyes followed Lin Xiaosu’s back for a while and then took a step forward.

With that step, she also disappeared into thin air.

Leaving Luohua Temple completely bewildered.

They couldn’t understand why the founding ancestor acted this way.

This founding ancestor entered Buddhism halfway, she was formerly the Holy Daughter of the Reincarnation Sect, when she was the Holy Daughter, she was known for her maverick ways, daring to think and act.

Establishing Luohua Temple, she didn’t delve much into the Buddhist path, the true Buddhist inheritance was actually managed by Miao Yu and Miao Shen, this founding ancestor was merely the temple guardian of this nunnery for a long time, preventing the sect’s path from being cut off by others.

Today once again, the moment of life and death for Luohua Temple has arrived.

They thought this founding sister would continue her usual strong approach, striking down powerful enemies.

Yet, the result deviated greatly.

She sided completely with this man named Su, fully acknowledging all his demands!

Why is that?

Could it be that this Su really intimidated her?

Is that possible?

She’s someone who has picked the Tao Fruit with the Reincarnation Law, her state comparable to the Second Vessel!

Even if the four elders of the Dynasty came personally, it wouldn’t create such an imposing intimidation, right?

What went wrong in the process?

They didn’t understand these, in fact, neither did Gu Suixin nor Zhang Tao.

They had been with Lin Xiaosu the entire time.

They witnessed the progression step by step.

If there was one thing they didn’t quite get, it was undoubtedly the rear mountain.

Lin Xiaosu stepped into the air, met with the founding ancestor, and leaped out of their sight.

In that moment, things spun a full 180 degrees.

The overall direction of Luohua Temple shifted directly, from complete uncooperativeness at the beginning to full cooperation later.

They couldn’t guess how Lin Xiaosu persuaded this founding ancestor.

Zhang Tao wasn’t in a position to ask.

Gu Suixin asked directly: "Brother, how exactly did you persuade the founding ancestor?"

Lin Xiaosu didn’t hide: "This founding ancestor is the beloved confidante of an old acquaintance of mine."

"Beloved confidante?" Gu Suixin’s eyes widened: "But she... is a nun!"

"The vocation of a nun is merely a concept bound by time. Currently a nun, wasn’t one three thousand years ago, and in the future, surely won’t be one either..."

Gu Suixin lightly scratched his head, utterly bewildered.

Kuang Lang raised her head, a faint smile appearing on her face at some point, as she was the only one in the group who knew about this because he had told her on her belly.

Fu Fu very much wanted to pull Brother Su into the cabin to celebrate their first seizing of the Sect Leader’s position with their ways, but today’s Brother Su seemed to be a bit of a gentleman, somehow managing to hold back during such a passionate moment, maintaining his restraint, preferring to chat with his junior brother on the deck rather than engage in celebratory activities in the cabin.
