Chapter 363: No hope

Seven Xizhou Fomen experts gave Juexin a strange look and asked.

It's already absurd for a Shèngjìng expert to mistakenly take a pill, and what's this Forget Love Pill? They've never even heard of it.

Noticing the change in the seven's expressions, Juexin also wondered.

"You haven't heard of the Forget Love Pill? Isn't it passed down from your Xizhou?"

"We Xizhou have never had any Forget Love Pill."

"None?" Upon hearing this, Juexin, Jueming, and the others exchanged bewildered glances—how did Juehui's Forget Love Pill come about?

"Let's go take a look first."

Since they haven't seen the person yet, the seven Xizhou Fomen experts dare not speak; they can only first see for themselves.

Juexin naturally wouldn't refuse, and led the seven to Jueyuan's dwelling.

These past days, Juehui has been taking care of him; so when she sees Juexin, she looks resentful—he hasn't eaten a proper meal in days.

Juehui's resentment aside, Juexin felt even more gloomy.

"Where did your Forget Love Pill come from?"

"From Xizhou."

"Nonsense, Xizhou simply doesn't have any Forget Love Pill—honestly, where exactly did it come from?"

"I........... this............."

Only then did Juehui look embarrassed and stammer.

"I bought it from a Xizhou monk called Fengdian Heshang."

"Fengdian Heshang?"

Upon hearing this, one of the seven Xizhou Fomen experts beside them stared in shock, then one of them wore a strange expression and said.

"You dare buy his medicine?"

"What's the problem?"

"Nonsense, just from the name you can tell this person is crazy."

There really is a Fengdian Heshang in Xizhou Fomen, and his strength is not weak—he has achieved perfect cultivation in the Shèngjìng realm.

It's a shame this person has some mental issues, spending all day researching strange things, especially pills.

Although the pills he concocts aren't poisonous, their effects are hard to describe.

Upon learning that the so-called Forget Love Pill came from Fengdian Heshang, the seven all shook their heads and told Juexin.

"Get ready mentally—Fengdian's concoctions are basically beyond cure."

While saying that, everyone entered the room; Jueyuan was sitting cross-legged on the futon, cultivating, and seemed fine.

But upon seeing Juexin enter, Jueyuan immediately smiled slightly.

"Senior Brother, have you finally figured it out? Did you bring the Juéqíng Shītài?"

Upon hearing that, Juexin's mouth twitched; he ignored it and instead told the seven Xizhou Fomen experts beside him.

"Thank you for your trouble."

"Hmm."

The seven nodded slightly and then stepped forward to begin examining Jueyuan.

At first everything was normal, but as the seven's Línglì poured into Jueyuan's body, he suddenly went berserk.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?"

"Let go, or I won't be polite, old monk!"

While shouting angrily, he began to struggle wildly; seeing this, the seven could only forcibly hold him down.

"Held him down."

After an examination, they ultimately found nothing wrong.

This is also normal, since Juexin and the others had already examined him carefully before and similarly saw nothing unusual about Jueyuan.

Then one of them fell into thought for a moment and said.

"The symptoms are very much like the Madness Devil Pill."

"Madness Devil Pill?"

To them, the Madness Devil Pill was no stranger—after all, that Fengdian had created it years ago and given it to many Fomen disciples, causing them to go mad and turn into demons, which is why they were expelled from Fomen.

After that, Fengdian has been wandering around Xizhou.

Turning to look at Abbot Juexin, the seven all shook their heads.

"No hope."

"No hope?"

"The Madness Devil Pill is harmless to the body, but once taken, becoming a mad devil is irreversible—we can't do anything."

"Where exactly did he get the Madness Devil Pill? How could he even swallow it?"

"A normal person could never mistake the Madness Devil Pill for another pill and swallow it by accident."

Upon hearing this, Juexin fell into silence.

Put simply, the situation is that these fellow disciples personally fed Jueyuan the Madness Devil Pill, causing him to fall into madness.

Just thinking about this made Juexin feel awful inside—what kind of thing is this?

He glared fiercely at Juehui; seeing this, Juehui also shrank her neck.

He really didn't know it was the Madness Devil Pill—back then that crazy monk told him it was the Forget Love Pill.

He also felt embarrassed to reveal the truth, so Juexin could only feign calm.

"Thank you for your trouble, after all your hard travels—I, the old monk, will now prepare a Dong Fu for you."

"No rush, we still have matters to discuss with the Abbott."

Good.

Juexin had to lead the seven people away; Juehui naturally stayed behind to look after him.

Regardless of whether he is willing or not, the responsibility of looking after Jueyuan will definitely fall on him.

Who let the medicine be his, and still talk about the Love-Forgotten Pill, having been deceived without even knowing it.

Returning to the main hall again, Juexin looked at the seven and asked.

Is there anything else?

The disciples of Divine Sword Peak and Jade Maiden Peak of the Dao Yi Sect are now at Putuo Temple, right?

Hearing this, Juexin felt puzzled, wondering why they suddenly brought up the Dao Yi Sect, but still nodded and replied.

Not bad, they are all here to participate in the Ten Thousand Buddha Grand Assembly.

Indeed, the next second, the leader among the seven spoke in a low voice.

Let them stay forever in Putuo Temple.

Huh???

What are you trying to do? Juexin didn't quite understand, and the seven, seeing this, spoke bluntly.

We have reached an agreement with Huling; you lead the people of Putuo Temple to take action and slay these two peaks' disciples of the Dao Yi Sect.

Kill them?

Any problem?

What about the Dao Yi Sect's retaliation?

Don't worry, then we'll say it was Huling's doing.

The West Continent Fomen and Huling have joined forces, planning to act against the Dao Yi Sect; hearing these words, Juexin hesitated for a moment.

In the past, he would surely not have thought much; whatever the West Continent Fomen said, he would do.

But now, upon learning that they would act against the Dao Yi Sect, especially Divine Sword Peak, Juexin's first reaction was opposition.

Setting aside whether they could withstand the Dao Yi Sect's retaliation after killing Divine Sword Peak, where would they go to eat in the future?

But this is also an order from the West Continent Fomen, so Juexin hesitated for a moment.

Seeing his hesitant appearance, the seven strong ones of the West Continent Fomen also furrowed their brows and said:

What, any problem?

No, but the disciples of the two peaks number in the tens of thousands; before taking action, I need to make some preparations.

No problem, just finish it before the Ten Thousand Buddha Grand Assembly.

Good.

Immediately, Juexin arranged lodging for these West Continent Fomen strong ones.

After settling these people, Juexin quickly gathered all his fellow martial brothers.

With a solemn expression, he said:

The West Continent Fomen orders us to slay the disciples of Divine Sword Peak and Jade Maiden Peak, leaving none; what do you think?

Facing his own martial brothers, Juexin had no concealment and spoke directly.

Just hearing these words, Jue Ming immediately spoke up to refute.

How can this be acceptable?
