After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 139

Hao Xing couldn’t believe it, yet he had no choice but to believe.

Words and appearances can deceive, but the Buddhist Sect’s techniques cannot.

Moreover, he could clearly feel that the Buddhist scriptures Jiang Chen had learned were definitely many levels higher than his own!

‘Could this person be a lay disciple from the Upper Domain Buddhist Sect?’

Hao Xing secretly speculated.

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Only this answer could explain everything.

The Central Domain Buddhist Sect’s influence was solely on the Buddha Temple.

However, in the Upper Domain, there was a small realm called the Buddha Realm, reputed to be filled with Buddhas whose radiant light illuminates everywhere, each one incredibly formidable.

“Dare I ask the high monk, where do you come from, and what brings you to the Buddha Temple?” Hao Xing asked again.

“I come from the far Eastern Land, specifically to the Buddha Temple to… seek the true scriptures,” Jiang Chen said with a smile.

He was addicted to bluffing and almost said he came to rob the scriptures.

Eastern Land?

Hao Xing blinked in confusion. He had never heard of this place!

He secretly guessed that it must be a place within the Buddha Realm!

After all, he was well-versed in the Central Domain and even the Lower Domain, but the Upper Domain was beyond his knowledge.

And seeking the true scriptures likely meant engaging in scriptural debate.

In the Buddhist Sect, many monks liked to enhance their understanding of Buddhism in this way.

After an ‘epiphany’, Hao Xing’s expression immediately became respectful, and he greeted, “It is a great fortune for our Buddha Temple to have the holy monk San Zang come from afar.”

The title had changed from a high monk to a holy monk.

This was because the Buddha Realm was already considered a holy land in the hearts of the Buddhist Sect, and monks from the holy land were naturally referred to as holy monks.

“I will inform our main temple to cleanse, chant, pray, and to welcome the holy monk with the highest etiquette. And I, will personally escort the holy monk to our main temple for scriptural debate,” Hao Xing said with a deep bow.

Go to the main temple of the Buddha Temple?

Jiang Chen refused outright. How could this be possible?

He could bluff Hao Xing here, but he couldn’t bluff the bald monks in the main temple of the Buddha Temple.

The Buddha Temple had the Buddha and the abbot, whose statuses were akin to the Old Ancestor and Sect Master.

Besides them, there were the four Great Universal Salvation Monks, the four Great Ascetic Monks, and the Six Buddha sons.

These people could tell at a glance that he was practicing the treasured scripture of the Buddha Temple!

By then, his “holy monk” image would collapse instantly, for how could a lay disciple from the Upper Domain Buddhist Sect learn the Central Domain Buddhism?

Especially the secret treasures of the Buddha Temple?

Without a doubt, what awaited Jiang Chen would be an immediate enlightenment!

This was a matter of a sect’s face and secrets, and even if he was the sole heir of the Jiang family, the Buddha Temple would fight to the death!

Therefore, he could not possibly go to the main temple of the Buddha Temple.

“No need to trouble yourself,” Jiang Chen refused.

“How can that be?”

Hao Xing sternly refused, adamant: “If the people of our temple knew I neglected a holy monk from the Upper Domain, they would punish me severely! No matter what, I must invite the holy monk to our temple!”

“…No matter what?” Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes.

“Yes!” Hao Xing replied instantly.

“Baldy! Don’t push your luck!” Jiang Chen was done pretending and directly threatened: “If you stop me again, I will send you to meet the Buddha today!”

The sudden change caught Hao Xing completely off guard.

The man in front of him, who had just appeared to be a “holy monk” a second ago, now seemed like a villain here to cause trouble?

The point was, he hadn’t obstructed anything!

Wasn’t it about seeking scriptures and debating?

He was ready to personally escort him, and that was called obstruction?

Completely unreasonable! Unfathomable!

“Holy monk, please mind your language.”

Hao Xing tried to suppress his dissatisfaction and said: “If you want to debate scriptures, I will gladly take you there, otherwise…”

“Otherwise?” Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.

“Otherwise, please leave, holy monk. The Buddha Temple only welcomes fellow practitioners, not evil monks!” Hao Xing laid his cards on the table.

After speaking, he inwardly sneered: ‘If it were really a “holy monk” who had taken monastic vows, I wouldn’t dare to do this. But this Zhang Hu is just a lay disciple, and although he is well-versed in Buddhism, his status in the Buddha Realm must be very low. The Buddha Temple is not afraid.’

To this, Jiang Chen chuckled coldly and then gave Xiaobai a look.

Xiaobai instantly understood and immediately transformed into an ancient beast that spat black thunder.

It wanted to swallow Hao Xing whole but then hesitated and said, “Eldest Senior Brother, I don’t want to eat him. He looks greasy.”

Hao Xing, who had already been frightened by Xiaobai’s profound and violent beastly aura, trembled.

But upon hearing Xiaobai’s words, all he wanted to say was:

Isn’t that not polite?! Even Buddha has a temper!

Hao Xing was immediately enraged, activated the Buddhist power within him, transformed into a golden body several zhang tall, and prepared to fight Xiaobai for three hundred rounds.

Then, before he could act, Xiaobai pressed him to the ground like swatting a fly! Unable to move!

“…”

As if crushed by a mountain, Hao Xing blinked in bewilderment.

He didn’t expect to be so weak. To be defeated by a White Tiger in an instant! Soon, he realized.

It wasn’t that he was weak. After all, he was at least at the Earthly Origin level, but he was blinded by the stupidity of this great White Tiger!

Thinking the other party was foolish, he thought he could fight him. But how could he not understand in his heart?

A great demon like Xiaobai, with ancient bloodlines, had strength comparable to the Heavenly Origin realm!

“White Tiger, I wasn’t ready just now. Let me go, and we’ll start over,” Hao Xing said.

“Do you think I’m stupid?” Xiaobai rolled its eyes.

This made Hao Xing’s mouth twitch.

Watching his frustrated and helpless expression, Jiang Chen laughed heartily.

He had come a long way, not only to disrupt Lin Feng’s opportunity but also to enjoy the long-lost ‘villain’ satisfaction. And then to collect some system rewards!

After waiting a moment and seeing no response from the system, he decided to be more ruthless and directly ordered Xiaobai: “Xiaobai, whip him!”

“Whip? How?” Xiaobai blinked in confusion.

“However you want to whip, just do it!”

“Alright!”

Xiaobai, in a great mood, lifted its huge tiger paw and started slapping Hao Xing like swatting a fly.

Each of its hits was as heavy as a mountain.

“Boom!”

One slap scattered the golden body Hao Xing had condensed with his Buddhist power.

“Boom!”

After two slaps, Hao Xing was already buried deep in the ground while spitting blood.

The third slap was just raised and hadn’t fallen yet.

“What on earth do you want to do?” Hao Xing was about to cry.

“Didn’t I say?” Jiang Chen was taken aback.

“No!”

Hao Xing spat out blood and said, “I said I would personally take you to our temple, you said I was obstructing you! Then you let this White Tiger attack directly, and I still don’t know what you want to do!”

He looked pitiful and helpless and then said, “Even if you want to kill me, let me die with a clear understanding! Just beating me up, can that solve the problem? No! Can’t we have a proper conversation?”

“Uh…”

Jiang Chen felt a bit embarrassed.

Thinking about it carefully, he realized he indeed hadn’t stated his purpose.

“Xiaobai, continue whipping him!” Jiang Chen ordered again.

“Okay.” Xiaobai didn’t hesitate, and the huge paw struck down again.

“Boom!”

This slap was even more forceful than the previous ones, almost shattering Hao Xing’s bones.

“Why hit me again?!” Hao Xing couldn’t believe it.

“Because you make me feel somewhat embarrassed,” Jiang Chen replied instantly.

“…Pfft!”

Upon hearing this, Hao Xing spat out a mouthful of blood, nearly fainting on the spot.

At the same time, the system’s prompt finally appeared.
