Chapter 609

~7 min read 1,324 words

Above the Dao One Sect's encampment, Master Jueyuan was once again trapped in a group beating by Until Hong Zun and the others.

Once hooked by the Qingshi hook, Until Hong Zun, Shi Song, and Zhang Tianzhen stepped forward and unleashed a brutal beating.

Moreover, this time it was clearly more violent than the previous few times, especially Shi Song, who truly went for the kill.

"I'll let you touch her, I'm going to finish you off today."

"You thieving, incorrigible bald donkey."

"Wait a moment, it's really not what you think; I have no designs on the Abbess."

"If you have no designs, then why the hell did you come?"

"It's true, listen to my explanation, Senior Brother, Senior Brother save me!"

"Even if the Buddha himself came today, he couldn't save you."

Truly on the verge of being beaten to death, Master Jueyuan cried out loudly for help.

The terrifying shockwaves naturally attracted the attention of many people again. At this moment, at the encampments of the other major sects, everyone looked up at the sky, their expressions already turned numb.

One by one, they said with no ripples on their faces.

"They're fighting again."

"Indeed."

"Day after day, it really is lively enough."

From the initial tension and worry, to the later curiosity and doubt, and now to the current indifference.

The people of the major sects had gradually become accustomed to such fights.

Ever since the Dao One Sect arrived, it seemed as if they didn't feel right all over if they didn't have a fight every day.

In the main temple hall, Master Juexin heard the cries for help, his mouth twitching continuously; how the hell was he being ganged up on again?

"Didn't we agree just yesterday? Why did he run off to provoke the Dao One Sect again?"

He couldn't help but curse angrily.

Last night, he had given a thousand warnings and ten thousand injunctions, telling Master Jueyuan not to provoke the Dao One Sect again, but how much time had passed, and he was being ganged up on by Until Hong Zun and the others again; what kind of situation was this?

Does an old nun really have that much charm? Enough to make him disregard even his own life?

In Master Juexin's view, Master Jueyuan appearing at the Dao One Sect's encampment was eighty percent likely aimed at Abbess Jueqing.

But he just couldn't understand, what exactly was so good about that old nun? If you're looking for a woman, where can't you find one? You have to go provoke that old nun; don't you know Shi Song likes her?

Furthermore, people say that scars heal and pain is forgotten, but your scars haven't even healed yet, right? Are you really that impatient?

But anger is anger, he still had to save him; after all, he was his own Junior Brother and a Saint of the Putuo Temple, so naturally, he couldn't just watch him get beaten to death.

"I am truly defeated."

Cursing in his mouth, his body, however, was rapidly rushing toward the Dao One Sect's encampment.

Above the Dao One Sect's encampment, Master Jueyuan was already beaten to his last breath.

Seeing that he was about to fail, Master Juexin arrived in time, with the same expression and the same words.

"Stop."

But this time, Shi Song paid no attention at all and still slapped out with his palm, clearly intending to finish him off directly.

Seeing this, Master Juexin could only take action to resist, saving Master Jueyuan first.

With the attack blocked, Master Juexin also arrived in front of Master Jueyuan, shielding him behind his back, his expression looking terrible.

"Everyone, is there some misunderstanding about this matter?"

"Misunderstanding my ass, bald donkey, I gave you enough face yesterday, what did you say?"

"This..."

Shi Song roared angrily, Master Juexin was speechless, and seeing this, Shi Song continued to curse.

"Even if the Buddha came today, he couldn't keep him; hand the person over."

Handing the person over was definitely not possible, so Master Juexin could only bite the bullet and say.

"Fellow Daoist Shi Song, this matter is indeed Master Jueyuan's fault, my Putuo Temple is willing to provide an explanation, see if you can..."

"No, do you have any idea what he did?"

"What did he do?"

"He... phew, I'm too embarrassed to even say it."

Hmm???

Facing the murderous Shi Song, Master Juexin's brows furrowed tighter and tighter; what exactly had Master Jueyuan done?

"Fellow Daoist Shi Song, my Putuo Temple is willing to bear all responsibility for this matter, and I hope you can let bygones be bygones and give my Putuo Temple some face."

Things having reached this point, Master Juexin could only try to turn a big problem into a small one, and a small one into nothing.

But this time, Shi Song didn't buy it at all, insisting on killing Master Jueyuan no matter what.

Just as the two sides were deadlocked, other experts from the Putuo Temple arrived one after another, each of them wearing an expression of speechlessness.

It was so lively early in the morning, and then seeing Master Jueyuan beaten like a dead dog, everyone felt complex; what happened again, to be beaten into such a state?

The two sides remained deadlocked.

"Master Juexin, hand him over."

"Impossible, no matter what, Master Jueyuan is a member of my Putuo Temple; I am willing to give you an explanation, but handing him over is impossible."

Seeing that reason wouldn't work, Master Juexin's attitude also became firm; handing him over was absolutely impossible.

Master Jueyuan was a Saint Realm expert of their Putuo Temple; every expert at this level was extremely precious, so how could they just hand him over?

Furthermore, with so many eyes watching, if they just handed over their own Saint so casually, would their Putuo Temple have any face left in the future?

How would the world view their Putuo Temple, how would they view their Buddhist sect?

Oh, you can't even protect your own Saint, handing him over just like that, and you have no temper at all in front of the Dao One Sect?

Therefore, no matter which way you look at it, it was impossible for Master Juexin to hand the person over.

"Shi Song, wrong is wrong, I have already said that no matter what, my Putuo Temple will give you an explanation, and you can state any conditions you have; my Putuo Temple will do its best to satisfy them, but handing him over, I'm sorry, that's impossible."

"Do you know what he did? This bald donkey is a beast, phew, worse than a beast; today, no matter what, you must hand him over."

"Impossible."

"If you don't hand him over, we'll take him by force."

"You can try."

"I'll try then."

Saying this, Shi Song immediately prepared to take action, and Master Juexin also wore an expression of not backing down at all.

The two sides were at daggers drawn for a moment; not to mention them, even the disciples below, like Xu Jie and Zhao Zhengping, were prepared for battle.

Just as a great battle was about to break out, Abbess Jueqing flew over rapidly, went straight to Shi Song's side, grabbed the furious Shi Song, and said softly.

"Shi Song, don't, calm down."

The meaning of Abbess Jueqing's words was simply that she didn't want Shi Song to start a war with the Putuo Temple for her sake.

As the cause of the matter, although Abbess Jueqing also wished she could kill Master Jueyuan, if this were to trigger a great war between the Dao One Sect and the Putuo Temple, it was definitely something she did not want to see.

If she wanted to kill Master Jueyuan, there were plenty of opportunities; there was no need to let it develop to the point of a sect war.
