Chapter 866: Monk Xiaoyue

Xiaoyue’s words were filled with helplessness and sadness.

“During these 20 years, no mater how bad the situation or how much the Lu Family forced us, our Cangling World people never any intentions to change our faith. 3 years ago, the Buddhist Decree that landed made the people of our world delighted.”

She then spoke bitterly, “However, we waited for 20 years and nothing happened. To the few Buddhist Venerables and Unlimited Beginning and End Buddha, our small amount of Wish Power wasn’t much to them. Xiaoyue thought about how the Buddhist Faction has billions of disciples and if each person had demands and wishes, how would the Buddhist Venerable even have time to deal with them all? Who knows when will he will be able to truly descend…”

When Jingyin heard this a weird expression appeared on her face as she exclaimed, “Master! Why do you say that?”

Xiaoyue shook her head and didn’t reply.

Zong Shou was shocked at the side. Taking one out of ten kids, no wonder the Cangling World people would hate the Lu Family so much.

He shook his head, he could hear the hidden grievances within this Monk Xiaoyue’s words, not to mention, he didn’t know about the wishes of the Cangling World people before.

Even if he did, why did he have to bother with the wishes of some people who had nothing to do with him?

Did he really have to help if people asked? What kind of theory and logic was that?

However, when he heard those words, for some reason, Zong Shou felt a little guilty.

However, if he wanted to snatch food from the mouth of the tiger, to snatch this world from the Lu Family, he would have to cross swords with them several times.

He shook his head and waved away all these random thoughts. His Father and Mother matter, Bloodline battle. His grievances with Lu Wushuang, all these things were already really problematic and he didn’t want to be wrapped up in much more.

He remembered that Zhao Yanran always said that his heart was too soft. He didn’t want to admit it, but at this moment, if that crazy woman learned of his thoughts now, she would definitely mock him.

If Yiren found out, she would probably go all out to help the people of this world.

“Don’t blame me, I have acted out of my normal demeanor.”

At this moment, Xiaoyue had recovered back to normal and smiled, “I came to find you for another matter. These few days when I viewed the situation within your body, I learned some things. If I am right, you have the Sky Burning Lu Family blood in you?”

Suddenly, there was a crisp crashing sound as the rice box in Jingyin’s hand was flipped. She looked at Zong Shou in disbelief. Her hands clenched tightly as she gritted her teeth, blood seeping down.

It was like she didn’t expect the person she kindly saved was the evil devil that she kept talking about.

Zong Shou was really calm, “Yes! What is Monk Xiaoyue planning to do? To take my life here to take revenge for your people? Or chase me away for me to die on my own?”

“If it was 3 days ago, I might have really done that.”

Xiaoyue shook her head, “A few days ago, Lu Family Yantian Manor suddenly sent a decree with 10,000 gold and hundred years of lifespan as a reward to search for someone who was burning a white flame, no matter if he was dead or alive. Now they have bared their fangs and are searching all around. They went to all the rare and secluded areas of this world. This is why I boldly guessed that you are in a tough situation within the Lu Family. At least you are enemies with the Yantian Manor Head. Your bloodline is pure and your identity must be high in the Lu Family…”

Zong Shou had spent several days here and roughly knew that the Yantian Manor were the ones in charge of this world from the Lu Family.

The Manor Head was also the Ruler of this world.

He was a really smart person and at this moment knew what Xiaoyue meant.

Since they couldn’t fight head-on, then they would fight them from within.

His lips curled, “You are smart and know about the Lu Family internal conflicts. However, I can only disappoint you. Although I have their blood, I have a different surname. To them I am just a bastard, a humiliation that has to be removed. I also have no intention to fight for the Sky Burning Saint Emperor spot. I think it is best for you to not have such thoughts…”

His words were totally true. Based on what he knew, at this moment, there were many people in the Lu Family who thought that way about Zong Shou.

The moment he said this, Xiaoyue’s expression changed. On the other hand, Jingyin heaved a sigh of relief. The look in her eyes relaxed.

“Why would I?”

Xiaoyue gave an ugly smile and was just about to say something. She saw Zong Shou frown and look toward the people at the cliff.

She was shocked, the two of them looked out along his line of sight and their faces turned ashen white, only to see that smoke and dust billowed in the distance. A bunch of cavalry were charging about in the dense forest. Where they passed the trees would collapse, birds and beasts fleeing for their lives.

They were all Grade-6 Dao Soldiers, 2,000 of them who charged right outside the convent.

Even if they knocked into those kneeling and praying devotees, they still didn’t stop.

Flesh and blood sprayed everywhere. A few hundred people were smashed into meat paste by these cavalry.

Xiaoyue and Jingyin’s eyes popped out in fury. They then closed their eyes and chanted “Unlimited Beginning and End”.

Zong Shou’s pupils also constricted, a cold look appeared on his face.

Without even needing to guess, he knew why this army appeared here.

Strictly speaking, these people had died because of him.

After the Lu Family cavalry, there were tens of thousands of rumbling troops who rushed over.

They charged right through tens of thousands of devotees, splitting them into broken groups.

Those Grade-6 Dao Soldiers were still okay. After they arrived, they stood quietly outside the mountain gates.

The other cavalry all laughed in an unrestrained manner. Some of them waved their whips, chasing those devotees and whipping them.

What was weird was that although the Cangling World people were dodging, their expressions were numb, like they didn’t fear death at all. Sometimes they just stood there, allowing those cavalry to step over them or letting themselves get whipped.

Zong Shou instantly frowned. Such a situation surprised him.

These Cangling World people were just normal civilians and had no strength to resist the army. If they resisted now, it would be no different from them just asking to die.

However, looking at the situation they weren’t afraid of dying. Since that was the case, then why didn’t they go all out to fight against the enemies.

Just as he was finding it weird, Xiaoyue opened her mouth, “The Buddhist Faction mentioned that life is like a bubble, life and death is just a process. Life is a continuous process that would go through many cycles. This life is just a small portion of the line which is why even if you face hardship, there is no need to be angry, to hate. One can just bear with it and wait for the next life. If sincere devotees die, they can enter the Pure Land of Amitabha. Most of them had been through really sad and tragic matters and just wished to die. They anticipated the next life or a chance to enter that world. Although those people are evil, it is what they wished would happen…”

Zong Shou listened and was in deep thought. The Buddhist scriptures he recalled didn’t say the same thing.

Apart from reincarnation, the Buddhist Faction talked about morals and persuaded people to be kind.

Why did it become twisted to such an extent in Cangling World?

His heart was filled with fury and depression. He couldn’t stand such devotees from the Buddhist Faction who chased for the next life and the future.

What he paid most attention to was the present moment, to fight for the current day!

“To us, one really can’t see any hope in this life. Rather than live on like this, why not just die!”

After saying this, Xiaoyue bowed toward Zong Shou and said, “Just now I did in fact have unspeakable thoughts. However, with my current situation, as long as I am able to let my Cangling World Brothers and Sisters break away from this hardship, I would be willing to try all kinds of methods. Please forgive me if I had angered you. At this moment, the convent has matters and forgive me for not being able to accompany you. Jingyin has a special identity, her parents died in the battle against the Lu Family. Please take care of her…”

Before she said this, there were already changes below. A green-armored male galloped out from the army.

He coldly looked at the shut convent and waved his sleeves.

It caused the old wooden gates to be broken. Like it was a signal, the soldiers behind him charged in like wolves and tigers.

All of a sudden, screams broke out from within the convent. The female monks within all fled.

Xiaoyue didn’t dare stay any longer, with a flash she left this area.

Jingyin clenched her fists once more. Right as she wanted to leave along with Xiaoyue, a strong power suppressed her onto the ground.

Without needing to think, she knew that it was Zong Shou. She instantly stared at him furiously.

Zong Shou turned around and looked at her curiously, “Are you anticipating the next life too?”

Jingyin didn’t think about it and instinctively shook her head, “Master said that for Buddhist cultivators, each cycle, each life is really important. We can’t be numb and unkind and not fight. We can’t give up everything just because we know there is a future life. All feelings are part of cultivation and we need to pay close attention to understand and learn from them.”

Zong Shou’s impression of Xiaoyue changed greatly.

These words were a great fit for his tastes.

“Since you aren’t anticipating the next life, then just stay here and watch!”

While speaking, Zong Shou spread out his Spiritual Sense to avoid all detection, covering the entire convent.

A sharp and cold intent flashed across his eyes, filled with killing intent.

In just 7 days, he could break into the Celestial Realm and break away from this Marrow Burning Blood Spirit Technique.

He wasn’t willing to be followed and noticed by Lu Wushuang.

However, if he had no choice, then there was no other way.

He couldn’t let the thousands of female monks die because of him.

They saved him and in doing so had caused great disaster for themselves.

Compared to Lu Wushuang’s chasing and killing, he wasn’t willing to feel guilty and responsible for others.

Moments later, his eyes were filled with seriousness.

The killing intent slowly retracted.

The soldiers below looked really menacing and some of them had evil glows in their eyes.

However, who knows whether it was due to the strict army rules in the Sky Burning Saint Dynasty or if they were worried about something, they followed all the rules within the convent.
