Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 54: Master, Do You Think the Buddha Can Enlighten You?

I am a monk, whereas you are a daoist. How are we peers? Master Xu Hui asked with an ambiguous smile.

He had only kept the two of them alive because he wanted to fish out information from them. Given their cultivation, he didnt think they could have dealt with Goldflower and Daoist Xue.

Those who embrace Buddhism dont discriminate! Elder, I even tried to get a cultivation companion to further my study of Buddhism, but this Little Abbess keeps turning me down, the gray-robed daoist said.

The little nuns face turned red. That daoist is saying such words despite the situation were in!

This Little Abbess does look pretty. Master Xu Hui glanced at the little nun and smiled. He turned his attention back to the gray-robed daoist and said, Ill let the two of you go if you speak the truth, or else Ill be the one to become her cultivation partner.

Hes truly a demon from the Blood Spirit Cult. Hes despicable despite being a Buddhist monk, the gray-robed daoist sneered in his mind. On the surface, he put on a bitter smile and replied, Elder, can you be clearer with your words? Im afraid Im not sure what youre asking about

What an obstinate one you are. Since thats the case, Ill send you on your way to the Three Pure Ones, Master Xu Hui calmly said.

The golden bowl slowly rose to the sky. If it fell right now, the gray-robed daoist would have his head smashed into bits!

What kind of means is that Could it be that Master Xu Hui is a Ki Manifestation martial artist? Fang Qingyao was dazed.

The exchange between Master Xu Hui and the gray-robed daoist was short, but the means they had displayed were baffling. How did the golden bowl float in the sky without anything holding it up?

Is Master Xu Hui here? a voice echoed.

The crowd was taken aback. Whos joining in the commotion now?

Vice Minister Qin Dong gasped in shock when he saw who was here. In contrast, Fang Qingyao and her maid were overjoyed. They tried to shout, but someone clasped their mouths shut.

The gray-robed daoist saw a blind young man slowly making his way over and roared, Get lost, blind man. We arent seeing any guests today!

He then turned to Master Xu Hui and said with a fawning smile, Elder, our affairs here have nothing to do with that outsider. Lets pay him no heed. His lifeless eyes show that hes blind. Hes not worth our time.

Shut your mouth, Master Xu Hui said.

The gray-robed daoist quickly sealed his mouth. Seeing how Fang Chen continued to linger in the area, he cursed in his heart: I did everything I can to help you, but you insisted on barging in here. I cant help someone who insists on courting his doom.

Benefactor Fang, how do you know Im in this Compassion Hall? Master Xu Hui asked as he walked over to welcome Fang Chen.

Vice Minister Qin Dong suddenly remembered Fang Chen was blind, and Master Xu Huis presence also greatly reassured him. That alleviated his fear, and his tensed facial muscles relaxed a little.

This isnt good! War God Fang is in danger!

Fang Qingyaos face turned pale. She tried her best to remind him, but Manager Hes lackey covered her mouth so tightly that she could hardly breathe, let alone warn Fang Chen.

She could only watch helplessly as Master Xu Hui approached Fang Chen a step at a time.

Master Xu Hui is here. Im relieved. I wish to seek your advice. I have been too bloodthirsty in recent days, and Im not sure how I can curb it, Fang Chen said.

I have heard. Benefactor Fang, you massacred all of Greenpines martial artists in the capital, taking over a thousand lives in the span of a day. It must have been hard to sleep with so much blood on your hands, Master Xu Hui replied.

Whats this fellows background? A thousand lives?! Is he yet another demon? The gray-robed daoist was flabbergasted.

The little nun was taken aback too. The young man before her was suave and dignified, and he gave off a scholarly air that made him seem harmless

Yes, it has been a struggle to fall asleep in recent nights. Fang Chen sighed deeply.

Allow this humble monk to recite a sutra for you. May Buddha resolve the sins you carry on your shoulders, Master Xu Hui said.

If I may ask, can Buddha resolve the sins you carry on your shoulders too? Fang Chen asked.

Master Xu Huis face darkened. Before he could say a word, there was a flash of lightning, and before he knew it, he was lying on the ground with a charred body emitting white smoke.

Domineering lightning ki had barged into his meridians and were wreaking havoc, making it impossible for him to channel his spirit ki. As a result, he was rendered powerless.

As I thought. A Purple Lightning Talisman made out of spirit materials is far stronger. If the Purple Lightning Talismans I previously made are low-grade, the recent few should at least be at mid-grade, Fang Chen thought.

Master Xu Hui was much stronger than Goldflower Granny and Daoist Xue, likely at fifth stage Ki Refinement or even sixth stage. Even so, he was helpless before the prowess of a mid-grade Purple Lightning Talisman.

This was a glimpse into how formidable the Three Thousand Dao Gate was. Even a talisman intended for their initiates already wielded such terrifying prowess.

The crowd was stunned, as they couldnt believe what they had just witnessed. This was even more so for Vice Minister Qin Dong. His legs lost all strength, and he fell on his bum. He stared at Fang Chen with eyes filled with nothing but fear.

This The gray-robed daoist widened his eyes.

The little nun gasped as she stared at Fang Chen in a daze.

Manager He from the Compassion Hall was at a loss. He had always seen Master Xu Hui to be an invincible person, given his mystical means, yet the latter was defeated in the blink of an eye.

Sss!

A moment later, Manager He belatedly realized something and stared at Fang Chen in shock. Great Xias War God Fang is more terrifying than I thought. Even Master Xu Hui isnt a match for him!

For years, he had seen the disdain on Master Xu Huis face when he talked about Fang Chen. This led him to think that secular mortals like Fang Chen, no matter how high ranking they were, were nothing more than ants before Master Xu Hui.

But what he had just witnessed overthrown that.

So you defeated the Greenpine martial artists through a talisman

Unlike Goldflower Granny, Master Xu Hui was more knowledgeable and he recognized Fang Chens means right away. However, he couldnt imagine what kind of talisman could wield that much destructive prowess.

Buddhist monks often preach about embracing compassion, but Master Xu Hui, you have committed many evildoings under the skin of an enlightened monk. Say, arent you curious to know whether Buddha will save you or not? Fang Chen asked.

War God Fang, you dont know what youre getting involved in. Arent you afraid that you might bring a calamity upon your Great Xia? Master Xu Hui struggled to reply. He felt like knives were cutting into his throat, and every word he uttered was a torture in itself.

I know about your Blood Spirit Cult, Fang Chen replied.

You are the one! You killed Goldflower and Daoist Xue?! Master Xu Hui widened his eyes.

He would have never imagined that Qin Dong was right. He regretted not believing that ants words, or else he wouldnt have been caught off guard. But it looks like he intends to keep me alive for questioning. This is my chance to make a comeback.

Just then, he saw another blinding flash of purple lightning in the sky.

Several more purple lightning struck down on Master Xu Hui. It took just a few seconds for him to be reduced to cinders.
