Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 54 Do You Think Buddha Will Save You?
Chapter 54 Do You Think Buddha Will Save You?
"I am a monk, and you are a daoist, yet you say we’re the same?" Master Xu Hui smiled ambiguously.
He didn't directly kill them because he wanted to extract more information from these two. It was impossible for them to harm him and Jin Hua with their low cultivations, anyway.
"Buddhism and Daoism aren’t all that different in essence. I won't hide it from you, senior; I once tried to practice both Buddhism and Daoism, but this little nun over here is not very receptive, you see," the Daoist hurriedly elaborated.
To his side, the little nun found herself aflame with embarrassment. How could he say such inappropriate things right now...?
"This little nun is indeed pretty good-looking." Master Xu Hui glanced at the little nun as a hint of joy flashed through his eyes. He then looked at the Daoist and said, "If you tell me the truth, I will let you go. Otherwise, the person practicing dual cultivation with her will be me."
Indeed, you are a monster from the Spirit Blood Sect. You’re clearly cultivating the path of Buddhism, yet you wish to do such unrighteous deeds! The Daoist cursed inwardly but showed a bitter smile on the surface. "Senior, please, I really don't know what it is that you want me to say!”
"Looks like you’re not going to learn. Fine, I’ll send you to meet your Ancestor Sanqing.” Master Xu Hui smiled faintly, and the golden bowl in his hand rose into the air and hovered over the Daoist’s head. Undoubtedly, if it were to fall on his head, his head would be smashed open like a watermelon.
"What technique is this... Master Xu Hui... Is he a martial artist?” Fang Qingyao stared blankly at the exchange before her.
Although the previous interaction between the two was brief, the techniques they displayed were remarkable. What is that golden bowl emitting golden light? And how is it hovering in mid air?!
"Is Master Xu Hui here?" A voice rang through the air, causing everyone to be surprised. How could someone be so unlucky as to come here right now!
When Deputy Minister Qin saw the newcomer, his expression changed. In contrast, Fang Qingyao and her maid were overjoyed. They were about to scream, but someone covered their mouths.
When the Daoist saw that the young man who had come, and was now approaching them, was blind, compassion flashed in his eyes, and he yelled to him, “ Hey, you blind fool, scram! We’re not taking visitors today!”
He then turned his head toward Master Xu Hui and showed him a smile, in an effort to appease the man. "Senior, our affairs here have nothing to do with outsiders. Let's ignore him. As you can see, he’s blind and not worth paying attention to.”
Master Xu Hui said coldly, "Shut your mouth."
The Daoist instantly zipped his mouth. Seeing that Fang Chen didn’t listen to him and was still here, he couldn’t help but curse in his heart, Damn it! I can only help you so much. Since you wish to barge right through the gates of Hell, you can’t blame me for not stopping you!
"Divine General Fang, how did you know I was in the Hall of Compassion?” Master Xu Hui approached Fang Chen.
Deputy Minister Qin suddenly recalled that Fang Chen was blind. And even if he weren’t, with Master Xu Hui here, there was no need for him to feel afraid. With that, the tension on his face finally relaxed a little.
"Oh, no! Divine General Fang is in danger!” Fang Qingyao's face turned pale. She struggled to open her mouth, but someone covered it tightly with their hand. Now, she couldn’t even breathe, let alone warn Fang Chen. She could only watch helplessly as Master Xu Hui approached Fang Chen step by step.
"Master Xu Hui, it's good that you are here. These days, I could feel that a strong murderous intent has overwhelmed my heart, and I would like you to enlighten me." Fang Chen smiled.
"I’ve heard that you’ve slaughtered all the martial artists from the Qingsong Superior Academy. The blood of thousands of lives is on your hands. All that killing must have left you tormented, haven’t it?” Master Xu Hui smiled.
Hearing that, the Daoist was stunned. "Who is this guy? Thousands of lives? Is he also some little demon?"
To his side, the little nun was shocked. The young man in front of her was really handsome, and he had an air of elegance around him. He seemed completely harmless.
Fang Chen sighed softly in response. "Yes, I can't even sleep at night."
"Let me recite a scripture for you, then. I believe that Buddha can dissolve your sins," Master Xu Hui said.
Fang Chen's next words were unexpected. "Well, since Buddha can dissolve the sins I carry, could the same be said about yours?”
Master Xu Hui's expression sank. He was about to speak, but bolts of lightning suddenly filled his vision. He didn’t know when, but by the time he had registered what had happened, he was already lying on the ground, his flesh a mingled mess of black char, with white wisps of smoke rising from him.
The surging and overbearing force of lightning invaded his meridians in a wild rampage. He couldn’t rouse his spiritual energy at all. He was suddenly as helpless as a newborn child!
Seeing his sorry state, Fang Chen thought briefly, Indeed, the Purple Lightning Talismans made from spiritual items are far more powerful than ordinary ones. The Purple Lightning Talismans I made before were at most low-grade talismans. These should be of the mid-grade. freewebnove(l)
Master Xu Hui was far stronger than Granny Jin Hua or Daoist Xue. He was in the fifth stage of the Qi Refining Realm at the very least. He might even be at the sixth stage. It was a shame that he was unable to resist the might of a mid-grade Purple Lightning Talisman.
That alone showed the terrifying foundation of the Three Thousand Dao Sect. Their introductory book alone contained instructions on how to create such powerful talismans.
Everyone was left stunned by the scene that had played before them just now. They were in disbelief, especially so for Qin Dong, whose legs turned into jelly, causing him to fall butt-first on the ground. He stared blankly at Fang Chen with nothing but fear in his eyes.
"This..." The Daoist’s eyes widened in shock, while the little nun gasped as she stared at him, dumbfounded.
The manager was somewhat at a loss. The mysteriously powerful Master Xu Hui, who was well considered unmatched, had ended up in such a sorry state in the blink of an eye!
He sucked in a cold breath of air as he stared at Fang Chen, terrified. How is he so damn strong to the point that not even Master Xu Hui could deal with him?!
For the past few years, he heard Master Xu Hui speak disdainfully and contemptuously of Fang Chen more than once. Everything made him believe that someone like Fang Chen was a mere commoner regarded highly only by ordinary mortals. The mighty divine general was supposed to be nothing more than an ant before Master Xu Hui... But it was a shame that what had happened right now had overturned his world view.
"So... You’ve managed to slaughter the martial artists of the Qingsong Superior Academy using talismans..." Master Xu Hui was much more knowledgeable than Granny Jin Hua, and he instantly understood everything. The only thing he didn’t know was the type of these talismans and how the hell they possessed so much power.
"Dressed in the guise of the Buddhist way but secretly engaging in such things... Master Xu, do you think Buddha will save you?" Fang Chen said softly.
"Divine General Fang, you don’t have the slightest clue about my background, but you still chose to butt in. Aren't you afraid of bringing disaster to the entire Great Xia Empire?" Master Xu Hui struggled to speak. With every word he spoke, he felt his throat burn with unbearable pain, as if it had been lacerated by countless blades. Wisps of smoke came out of mouth every time he spoke.
"I know you're from the Spirit Blood Sect," Fang Chen said calmly.
"You! You’re the one who killed Granny Jinhua and Daoist Xue!" Master Xu Hui finally connected the dots.
It turned out that Qin Dong's suspicions were not misplaced at all! This time, he had been wrong not to trust the words of an ant. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been caught off guard by Fang Chen just now.
Looks like he plans to keep me alive for questioning. This is my chance... he thought secretly.
Then, he looked up and saw another dazzling bolt of lightning filling his eyes once again. One after another, Purple Lightning Talismans fell on Master Xu Hui. It didn’t take long before he was blasted into scraps.
