Chapter 979: Untitled

Zhi Zhen naturally knew that threats were of no use at all.

Therefore, he could only continue to beg for mercy.

"Senior, a misunderstanding, it really is a misunderstanding."

"This junior was also impulsive because of my junior brother's death; please forgive any offense."

Since he was begging for mercy, Zhi Zhen said all the good things he could say.

Such a shameless performance made Zhang Liang and Leng Wuji increasingly impatient; such a person, coming from the Buddhist Sect, was simply a disgrace to the Buddhist Sect.

Zhang Liang turned his head directly, not wanting to look at him at all.

"I think we should just kill him; what's the use of keeping him?"

"Of course it's useful. Keeping him is at least evidence. The things his junior brother did—even if this person didn't do them, he certainly knows about them."

"Killing him is equivalent to silencing him for the Buddhist Sect."

"I originally had no opinion on the Buddhist Sect preaching; having one more power come to the Nanzhan Buzhou might put some pressure on those Daoist sects and disciples, making them change their attitude toward ordinary people."

"But I didn't expect that these people from the Buddhist Sect would actually do such dirty things."

"This matter naturally cannot just be let go."

"Killing them is simply letting them off too easily."

Su Fan sneered coldly.

"Hmm! Then what do you plan to do?"

Zhang Liang also became curious, and Ge Nie and Leng Wuji turned their gazes over.

"Hmph! What the Buddhist Sect values most is preaching here in the Nanzhan Buzhou, so even if we few kill this bald donkey, the Buddhist Sect actually doesn't care."

"I didn't care about them preaching, but I don't like this method of driving away demon beasts. Killing him is simply giving him a quick death; I want them to know that my Human Race cannot be bullied."

"Then let's give them a profound lesson."

"What if we hand over the matter of that bald donkey to the Daoist Sect; what do you think will happen?"

Su Fan's mouth revealed a smile, but this smile, in Monk Zhi Zhen's eyes, was so hateful, as terrifying as a ghost god from the Nine Nethers.

"No!"

Upon hearing Su Fan's words, Monk Zhi Zhen almost knew the other's plan.

If this really happened, he would be finished, and the reputation of the Buddhist Sect would go without saying.

Once the Daoist Sect knew, they would inevitably publicize it extensively, and might even increase their efforts to slander the Buddhist Sect, as long as it could obstruct their preaching.

He believed the Daoist Sect would not hold back.

"Haha! You are still the sharp one; this move will certainly make the Buddhist Sect suffer."

Hearing this, Zhang Liang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"When the time comes, if the Buddhist Sect wants to preach again, the difficulty will increase. If you do this, the Buddhist Sect will inevitably hate you even more."

"In the Nanzhan Buzhou, don't leave easily from now on, unless your cultivation reaches the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm."

Su Fan's calculation would definitely make the Buddhist Sect very painful; this lesson would certainly make them remember.

But the consequences would certainly make the Buddhist Sect hold a grudge against Su Fan.

From now on, Su Fan should not think about going to the Western Continent; after all, that is the Buddhist Sect's base camp, and even in this Nanzhan Buzhou, it is possible that he will be ambushed by the Buddhist Sect.

After all, the Buddhist Sect's eastward crossing clearly will not retreat easily; in the future, there will certainly be no lack of strong people from the Buddhist Sect.

Probably only in the Nine Provinces will he be safe from now on.

Of course, Zhang Liang would not worry for Su Fan; after all, he knew that Su Fan's identity was not simple.

Once the Calamity ends, Su Fan will receive massive amounts of merit; at that time, even if he doesn't use merit to improve his cultivation, with that body of merit, probably no one will dare to make a move against him.

And at that time, with his identity as a Human Race Sage alone, the Buddhist Sect would not easily make a move.

After all, standing behind them is the Human Race's Fire Cloud Cave.

The Buddhist Sect will not easily offend the Human Race; Zhang Liang could naturally see this point.

From Su Fan's mouth, he learned a lot more about the situation in the Earth Immortal World, and naturally knew the situation of the Buddhist Sect, the Daoist Sect, and the Heavenly Court.

From here, he also concluded some situations: previously, the Human Race had always been preached to by the Daoist Sect, because the Daoist Sect had merit toward the Human Race from the beginning; after all, the mainstream cultivation path of the Human Race was also passed down from the Daoist Sect.

So the Daoist Sect preaching in the Human Race did not encounter obstruction, but the Buddhist Sect was different.

The Buddhist Sect had made no contribution to the Human Race, so why should they be allowed to preach?

So compared to the Daoist Sect, the Buddhist Sect was already at a disadvantage; if they offended the Human Race again, it would be even more difficult to preach in the Human Race in the future.

So they generally would not dare to make a move against a Human Race Sage.

At most, they would make a move during the Calamity, because during the Calamity, due to the evil qi of heaven and earth, the heavens were in chaos, and no one could deduce the culprit.

Zhang Liang said so.

Su Fan just smiled; it was true that he couldn't leave the Nanzhan Buzhou, but if he really wanted to leave the Nanzhan Buzhou, it wasn't impossible; he knew that Fire Cloud Cave was secretly protecting him.

It was just that if he left the Nanzhan Buzhou, at that time, probably not only the Buddhist Sect but also the Heavenly Court might make a move; previously, it was estimated that people from the Heavenly Court had made a move, but they were blocked by his secret guardian.

Su Fan naturally did not want too much trouble.

To really face the two major powers of the Buddhist Sect and the Heavenly Court, to be honest, Fire Cloud Cave would inevitably struggle.

He was not some spoiled rich kid, and he wasn't reckless; knowing there was danger, he wouldn't run around.

As long as he waited for the Calamity to end, he would be generally safe.

At that time, whether the Great Qin won or the Heavenly Court won, they would no longer make a move against Su Fan.

What's more, at that time, with his body full of golden light of merit, he wanted to see who would dare to make a move against him.

At that time, even if he wasn't a Great Luo Golden Immortal, at least he would certainly have reached the Golden Immortal realm; with his strength, unless it was a Great Luo Golden Immortal, they would not have the absolute certainty to kill him.

But which Great Luo Golden Immortal would dare to make a move against someone covered in golden light of merit?

Those who cultivate to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm are all high-level members of a power; even in the Buddhist Sect, they are all at the Bodhisattva fruit level; which power would abandon such a strong person?

So Su Fan was not worried about his own safety.

He was equivalent to possessing a death-immunity token; as long as he didn't court death, then almost no one would make a move against him.

Even in the future, when he participated in the Journey to the West.

Probably the Buddhist Sect would not say much because of his identity; as long as he wasn't greedy, then taking three or five of the eighty-one tribulations of the Journey to the West was not impossible.

He didn't care about this bit of merit, but he had said that he wanted to help Zhang Liang obtain some merit; as long as he participated in these few, Zhang Liang's future breakthrough to the Golden Immortal realm would inevitably be much smoother.

Once he reached the Golden Immortal realm, then he would truly be as long-lived as heaven and earth.

As a good friend, Su Fan was still very concerned about Zhang Liang.

The two had been friends for hundreds of years, and their personalities were relatively similar, so Su Fan also hoped that Zhang Liang would be able to walk smoothly in the future. ===== CHAPTER 980 =====
