So I Am A Demon Descendent!

Chapter 86: Absorbing Essence From Thousands Of Miles Away

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

In the afternoon, the rain finally stopped.

The mist hung over Mount Emei, and the outlines of the Buddhist Temple could be seen vaguely. After the rain stopped, visitors hiding from the rain in the temple continued to visit the places of interest under the guidance of the tour guide. They discussed softly about the odd occurrences at Mount Emei.

Unlike elsewhere, during the heavy rain, the dark clouds covered the top of Mount Emei and blood-colored lightning flashed.

In ancient books, the records of such anomalies were nothing more than sensational news such as the birth of evil treasures or a powerful demon going through tribulations and so on.

In the room behind Daxiong Great Hall, Jie Se who had just sent away the representatives of the great clans and the members of Taoist clans held a bone porcelain cup, staring into space. After the rain, a ray of sunshine shone into the Zen room, and the handsome monk was donned in white monk robes, his face as if a picturesque scene.

If one were to Photoshop away the old monk sitting opposite him, this scene would be really beautiful.

“Confusion is hidden in the heart, and turns into a knot after a long time, forming a knot in the heart.” Buddha Head sipped at his tea casually, looking down.

“Master, I just don’t understand,” said the young monk.

“What’s the matter?”

“We as monks are completely indifferent to worldly temptations, No self, no other, no living beings. If this is so, why are we threatened in the name of the world’s beings? If everyone uses this to threaten us, what should we do?”

“Do you mean that I am not resilient enough in my cultivation. I should have fought the War Spirit to the death, and make an oath not to compromise?”

“Blood has stained the great hall, how could there be a compromise.”

The old monk smiled and said, “Everyone present is a victim in your eyes. But they are seen as ferocious thugs in the child’s eyes. What if you save one and hurt one?”

Jie Se replied, “The Buddha has great compassion and is not afraid of cause and effect. The victim in front of you, is the victim.”

The old monk said again, “Think about it, if an accident happened to the Li family descendant, the Unparalleled War Spirit would be enraged and start a massacre. I have compromised with killings now to prevent a massacre, is that not a work of merit?”

Jie Se frowned.

Buddha Head put down the teacup and smiled, “In the sky and on the earth, we must assume an air of self-importance.”

Suddenly, realization dawned on Jie Se. “Master means to consider the big picture, and abandon the small details?”

Buddha Head smiled without saying a word.

Buddha Head muttered in his heart, Virgo signs were troublesome. Their obsessive-compulsive disorder was not terrible, but obsessive-compulsive disorder monks were different. The Li family’s War Spirit starting a massacre in Lianghua Temple was a serious trigger to an obsessive-compulsive disorder patient who cultivated a deep understanding of Buddhist practices.

“She’s still in the temple?” Buddhist Head asked.

“She said that she will stay here and leave after a few days. She had returned to the meditation room to sleep.” Jie Se’s expression was one of disdain when he mentioned the lady War Spirit.

After drinking tea, Buddha Head sat and meditated. Jie Se poured away the tea leaves and wiped the tea on the table. He arranged the teacups and teapots neatly, and silently arranged his Master’s cloth shoes. He glanced at the Zen room and made it neat. He then left contentedly.

Dusk.

The rain and fog faded away, and the setting sun dyed half of the mountain a crimson red. In a quiet meditation room, a teenage girl in a T-shirt was curled up on the bed. Her face and lips were pale, and her brows were knit tightly together. She was in a state of unrest and slept restlessly.

At this time, she was not so much a War Spirit, but rather a frightened girl.

“Oh my God, what have you created? She will only bring disaster.”

......

“Monster. She is a monster, not a hero at all. Go to hell, you monster.”

......

“Receive God’s will and the emperor’s edict as it says, the Li family has stolen the dragon bead, and cultivated forbidden devices, showing intentions to rebel. According to the laws and regulations of the Qing Dynasty, their nine family clans will be annihilated. It is henceforth declared as such.”

She jolted awake, and in front of her eyes was a quiet Zen room. There were birds twittering outside the window, and the afterglow of the setting sun twinkled between the branches and leaves. The mountain wind blew, and her cheeks were cold. She reached out in astonishment and touched her face. It turned out to be two trails of tears.

How sad indeed to look back upon her past in the fallen dynasty.

There were two knocks and a young monk’s voice was heard from outside: “Alms giver, it’s time to eat.”

She hurriedly dried her tears, and commented nonchalantly, “Come on in.”

She was the Unparalleled War Spirit, the peak of a Gokudo master. She must not let others see her cry, or else they will be wiped out.

Great-Grandma sat on her side with her head turned, not looking at the young monk. She won’t let him see her red eyes.

The young monk put the plate on the table. Great-Grandma sniffled and smelled something wrong. Turning around, she saw a bowl of white rice, a plate of pickled bean curd, and a plate of boiled vegetables.

Great-Grandma looked ferocious and demanded, “Where is the drumstick? Drumstick?”

The young monk scratched his head and asked in confusion, “What drumstick?”

Great-Grandma took a deep breath and asked, “Who asked you to send the food?”

The young monk replied, “Young Master-Uncle.”

Great-Grandma frowned. There was only one Young Master-Uncle in the entire Lianghua Temple. Gokudo Path Inheritor, Jie Se.

“Where is he?”

“He’s eating in the room.”

Great-Grandma grabbed a handful of rice and charged out.

Great-Grandma entered the Zen room with a kick at the door. At this time, Jie Se was eating in the room. The monk donned in white robes looked incredibly handsome, even when he was having his meal.

As the most handsome man cultivating under Buddha, Jie See looked calm, and was not surprised nor angry. He said nonchalantly, “What is the meaning of this, alms giver?”

Great-Grandma stood at the door and asked, “Did you remove the drumstick?”

Jie Se commented calmly, “The temple is a holy and revered place, where would there be a drumstick?”

Great-Grandma replied with an “Oh,” and threw the rice in her palm around the zen room.

In Jie Se’s view, the originally clean ground was suddenly defiled. He stood still, looking at Great-Grandma with his indifferent eyes. The two parties were in confrontation for several minutes. It looked as if Great-Grandma had lost. She hummed coldly and left. Jie Se heaved a quiet sigh of relief and quickly got up. He took the broom behind the door, and cleaned the ground carefully.

It’s finally clean... Jie Se was immensely relieved.

At this time, he looked up, and saw that the War Spirit had returned without making a sound. Great-Grandma chuckled. With a wave of her small hand, the rice grains scattered around the entire room.

The green tendons on Jie Se’s forehead twitched.

Great-Grandma harrumphed even though her prank succeeded, “I won’t hold it against a junior like you.”

Instead of going back to her room for dinner, she crossed the porch and pushed open Buddha Head’s zen room.

Buddha Head was sitting in the bed cross-legged, scrolling on his mobile phone, and not even looking up. “Alms Giver Li?”

“Help me contact Wang Lao Er, I’m going back to Shanghai,” Great-Grandma said. Her phone had gotten wet in the storm and could not be used again.

“Now?”

“Immediately.”

Buddha Head was puzzled and asked, “Do you feel unwelcome in the temple?”

Great-Grandma shook her head and said, “I’m going back. I’m worried if I don’t stay by his side.”

Buddha Head lamented. “We have not met for 20 years and just met for just a few days, I am quite reluctant to see you go.”

Great-Grandma said, “Well, then I’ll stay for a few more days.”

Buddha Head said, “Monks are completely indifferent to worldly temptations, in fact, there is nothing to miss”

Great-Grandma replied with an “Oh”, walked beside the bed and glanced at Buddha Head’s phone. “Your phone is bigger than mine,” she said casually.

Buddha Head smiled and said, “Yours is a phone model that has been eliminated last year. This is a new model, that costs eight thousand yuan.”

Realization dawned on Great-Grandma’s face, as her expression was one of sugoi. She asked, “Can you show me?”

Buddha Head handed over the phone to Great-Grandma. Great-Grandma fiddled with it and looked it over. The appearance was elegant and the system was also very smooth. Meanwhile, her mobile phone kept lagging.

“Monks are so rich,” Great-Grandma remarked.

“They are offerings from worldly disciples.” Buddha Head explained, “Monks don’t touch money. It is not important if mobile phones are good or bad.”

“I’m relieved to hear you say that.” Great-Grandma said, shoving Buddha Head’s new mobile phone into her pocket.

Buddha Head was confused.

“Alms Giver Li, what are you doing?” There was an ominous foreboding in Buddha Head’s heart.

“Monks don’t touch money, you said it yourself.”

“Yes, I did say it.”

“It doesn’t matter whether a mobile phone is good or bad, that’s what you said.”

“That’s what I said.” Buddha Head replied solemnly, “But what has this got to do with you putting my mobile phone into your pocket?”

“Find yourself an old handphone model later.” Great-Grandma sighed. “It is not easy for my great-grandson to make money. As an elder, I should be considerate of the hard work of my younger generation. Eight thousand Yuan is too expensive for me to afford. Anyway, a valuable thing is wasted on you, because you don’t know how to use it. Why don’t you give it to me?”

Buddha Head said, “Alms Giver Li, at least let me backup the data.”

Great-Grandma said, “No, get out of here.”

...

Li Xianyu finally felt pain in his waist, and it was a continuous pain. He soothed his pain with his superpower, but it began to hurt again after a short period of time. He soothed it, and it hurt again.

He was bewildered. Great-Grandma had left, and his superpower was self-healing.

Why was his waist still hurting?

Li Xianyu dragged his tired body and returned to his room in Baoze. He lay in bed, lit a cigarette, and as he rested, he scrolled the ancient demon app. In the Information section, there was a top news, with 999+ readers.

#Shocking, Unparalleled War Spirit Annihilates the Great Families for this #

Li Xianyu already knew the purpose of Great-Grandma’s “business trip” and immediately clicked in.

The person who posted was a man named Wang Lao Er. He described the details of the symposium in a pompous style, using words such as “shocking”, “incredible”, and “badass”.

Li Xianyu read the post, and felt the exciting ups and downs. There were all kinds of twists that it can be read as a short story.

He muttered in his heart, My gran is formidable indeed. Great job. However, he had doubts. After drawing a few times of energy, Great-Grandma has become so strong? She completely dominated and wrecked all the powerful characters present.

The post was also accompanied by pictures. Hundreds of reputable figures looking up at the sky in horror, with a thin layer of blood flowing under their feet.

The comment area at the bottom of the post.

Old Master Qin: “Look at the angle of the photo taken, is Wang Lao Er so afraid that he hid at the bottom of the table?”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “What is Wang Lao Er so scared of? Isn’t he with the War Spirit? How powerful, the War Spirit deserves her title indeed.”

Li Bai: “This is probably fake, Buddha Head was defeated in a move? This woman is so terrifying?”

God of Fire: “Hmm, isn’t the Unparalleled War Spirit’s power sealed?”

Tentacle Monster: “Dislike. Why isn’t there a photo of the War Spirit?”

God of Fire: “Exceedingly beautiful, a jade-like beauty.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “Tsk tsk, listening to God of Fire’s tone, did you ever have a crush on the Unparalleled War Spirit in the past?”

Lady Killer: “I suspected that Li Xianyu was the descendant of the Li family. It seems that he is not.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “@Lady Killer, I used to think so too but I then checked the information. The Li family’s ability is to strengthen but Salted Fish’s ability is self-healing.”

Lady Killer: “Battle Lady has a point. Someone like Salted Fish really does not look like a Li family descendant. Li Wuxiang was such a magnificent hero, how could he have such a son?”

What do you mean by that? Make yourself clear.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “The War Spirit’s power is so strong, indicating that the Li family descendant has silently grown stronger for a long time, but the company kept it under wraps and trained the descendant as a secret weapon. Besides, I think Salted Fish is fine.”

A fine man is me, I am Li Xianyu.

Long Aotian: “@Thunderbolt Battle Lady, are you blind?”

Li Xianyu took a screenshot of the post and left the ancient demon app. He sent a picture to Great-Grandma and commented, “Awesome, Great-Grandma.”

Great-Grandma replied: [sunglasses-wearing emoji].

Li Xianyu: “You really one-hit KOed Buddha Head so easily?”

Great-Grandma: “Is it shocking, is it surprising?”

Li Xianyu: “Is it real or fake?”

Great-Grandma: “Of course it’s fake.”

Li Xianyu: “...”

Great-Grandma: “The old bald donkey is just putting on a show with me.”

The essence she had absorbed from her great-grandson was sufficient to wallop those guys but not enough to make her form a dominating aura. Thanks to half of Buddha Head’s zhenqi, Great-Grandma returned to her Gokudo state for a short time. However, it caused her to become overdrawn. Fortunately, her great-grandson was energetic and she had recovered after absorbing his essence for more than half a day.

“How is that possible? That’s Buddha Head,” Li Xianyu said he could not understand.

Great-Grandma said, “The old bald donkey loves to act. He is a man of great wisdom.”

Li Xianyu said, “Great-Grandma, I don’t know why. My waist has been hurting all the time today. My self-recovery ability is not working.”

Great-Grandma said, “Oh, because I’ve been absorbing your essence.”

Li Xianyu asked, “How did you do that?”

Great-Grandma replied, “The spirit bead is in your body, I can extract your energy and essence effortlessly.”

Li Xianyu said, “Absorbing Essence from thousands of miles away?!”
