Chapter 66

~7 min read 1,385 words

Now was not the time to tear off the mask with Fomen.

If Guanyin died, Fomen and even the two Western Saints would probably go crazy.

Since Tongtian wanted to rebuild the Jie Sect, he naturally wanted to crush Fomen and even the two Western Saints.

If both sides were severely damaged, this was not what Tongtian Jiaozhu wanted.

Therefore, ordinary Fomen powerhouses could be killed, but for some Fomen powerhouses with good status, Wudang and the others would leave them alive for the time being.

But whether it was Fomen or the Chan Sect, they would be the future targets of the Jie Sect.

In the Investiture of the Gods Great Calamity.

The main causes of the Jie Sect’s collapse were the Chan Sect and the two Western Saints.

Winners are kings and losers are bandits; at that time, they had failed.

This time, their Jie Sect would make a comeback.

Wudang was not saying she didn’t admit the failure at the time; they had indeed failed back then.

Afterward, Wudang also understood some of the problems of the Jie Sect.

Although the Jie Sect seemed to have ten thousand immortals coming to court, the disciples within were a mixed bag.

Demons who killed and ate people would cause a massive amount of karmic debt.

Plus, Tongtian Jiaozhu’s four Immortal-Slaying Swords could not suppress the fortune of the Jie Sect.

Combining all these factors led to the final explosion.

The Jie Sect collapsed directly, almost as if it had been wiped out.

It was precisely because of this that it seemed normal for Tongtian Jiaozhu to want to destroy the world and open up a new one.

It was just that the appearance of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun brought that Great Calamity to a true close.

Afterward, Saints could not personally intervene.

And that was exactly why.

In this era, there were far fewer legends about Saints.

And now, Tongtian Jiaozhu would not do that.

Besides resurrecting useful Jie Sect disciples from the Investiture of the Gods, for those disciples with huge karmic debt, letting them become deities in the Heavenly Court might be a good choice.

As for all this, Tongtian Jiaozhu still left it to the Holy Mother Jin Ling to execute.

As the Doumu Yuanjun of the Investiture of the Gods, no one knew the deities on the Investiture of the Gods better than the Holy Mother Jin Ling.

Over the long years, the Holy Mother Jin Ling had likely seen the performance of those Jie Sect disciples.

These things aside for now.

Guanyin looked ugly as she listened to the Holy Mother Wudang’s words.

She wanted to say no and wanted to fight the Holy Mother Wudang.

But after the few confrontations just now, Guanyin understood even more that there was indeed a gap between her and the Holy Mother Wudang.

Plus, with the Holy Mother Jin Ling pressing the line, and Jin Ling was also a Quasi-Saint powerhouse.

Two Quasi-Saint powerhouses were enough to kill her in this dojo.

As a Guanyin who had lived until now, she did not want to die at this time.

In the past, as a personal disciple of the Chan Sect, she had some understanding of the personalities of the Holy Mother Wudang and the Holy Mother Jin Ling.

They didn’t play games; they did exactly what they said.

As the only living personal disciple of the Jie Sect, killing a Bodhisattva of Fomen didn’t seem like much.

Besides, as the only living personal disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu, Tongtian Jiaozhu probably wouldn’t watch her get into trouble.

Not to mention that the current Buddha Tathagata of Fomen was also the former senior brother of the Jie Sect.

Wanting the Buddha to avenge her? Keep dreaming.

Therefore, the most important thing for Guanyin was to think about how to survive; she couldn’t place her hope in the hands of others.

"Fine, I understand." Guanyin took a deep breath. "Two Holy Mothers, please follow me."

"Hmm, that’s more like it. Cihang, lead the way," the Holy Mother Wudang said impolitely.

This made Guanyin’s face turn pale again; she clenched her fists and finally let go.

Turning against them now.

Wouldn’t that just give the Holy Mother Wudang more reason to attack her and kill her?

She needed to endure, to endure well.

"Fine, follow me." Guanyin turned into a ray of light and headed toward her dojo.

The Holy Mother Wudang and the Holy Mother Jin Ling followed behind; at this time, they were not afraid of Guanyin playing any tricks.

A moment later.

The Holy Mother Wudang and the Holy Mother Jin Ling arrived at Guanyin’s place of cultivation.

A strange demon beast was waiting there.

"Jinguang Xian, why don’t you return quickly?" The Holy Mother Wudang looked at the lion-like demon beast and shouted.

"Roar..." The Golden-Haired Roar roared excitedly; he transformed into a man and knelt respectfully.

"Greetings to the Holy Mother Jin Ling and the Holy Mother Wudang," said the Golden-Haired Roar, who was Jinguang Xian.

As one of the Seven Attendant Immortals, he naturally knew the personal disciples of Tongtian Jiaozhu in the past.

"Jinguang Xian, Jin Ling and I came here to have you return to the Jie Sect. Are you willing?" The Holy Mother Wudang said to Jinguang Xian.

"Return to the Jie Sect." Jinguang Xian was stunned, then became excited.

He didn’t know how long he had waited for this moment.

But after the Investiture of the Gods, the Jie Sect was destroyed, and Jinguang Xian understood that this hope was extremely slim.

Now, such a slim hope could actually be realized.

This made Jinguang Xian extremely excited.

"Holy Mother, I am willing," Jinguang Xian replied quickly.

"Jinguang Xian, from today on, you are free." Guanyin flicked her finger, and a ray of light was pulled out from Jinguang Xian’s body.

That was the restriction Guanyin had previously placed on Jinguang Xian.

Otherwise, as one of the Seven Attendant Immortals of the Jie Sect, how could Jinguang Xian easily accept Guanyin’s orders?

"Cihang," Jinguang Xian looked coldly at Guanyin and walked toward the Holy Mother Wudang.

Jinguang Xian felt no gratitude toward Guanyin for giving him his freedom.

After all, it was Guanyin who had imprisoned his freedom.

"Jin Ling, let’s go; we need to prepare for the next target," the Holy Mother Wudang said.

"Wudang, wait a moment." The Holy Mother Jin Ling revealed a smile as she looked at Guanyin.

But this smile made Guanyin feel a little cold.

What was the Holy Mother Jin Ling trying to do?

"Cihang, the bottle and the willow branch in your hand are not bad. How about giving them to me?" the Holy Mother Jin Ling said with a smile.

"Impossible!" Guanyin’s expression changed, and she refused.

The jade vase and the willow branch were, to some extent, her current treasures of enlightenment.

How could she possibly give them to the Holy Mother Jin Ling?

As for Wudang on the side, she was a bit stunned; she hadn’t expected the Holy Mother Jin Ling to say such a thing.

According to what she knew in the past, the Holy Mother Jin Ling was not a greedy person.

In fact, this was because the Holy Mother Jin Ling had seen the Holy Mother Wudang’s powerful strength and was thinking about how to improve her own.

Then the grocery store of the senior mentioned by the Master, a legendary powerhouse at the Great Dao level, was the best place.

This was the reason why the Holy Mother Jin Ling wanted Guanyin’s treasures.

"Compared to life, the value of treasures cannot be compared, right?" the Holy Mother Jin Ling said indifferently.

"Still impossible." Guanyin shook her head. "Even if you kill me, I will not hand over the jade vase..."

"Then the Three-Light Holy Water and other treasures will do."

Just like that, the Holy Mother Jin Ling finally left Guanyin’s dojo satisfied, taking some treasures and a portion of the Three-Light Holy Water.

In mid-air.

"Wudang, why are you looking at me with that expression?" the Holy Mother Jin Ling asked.

"Jin Ling, when did you become so money-minded?" the Holy Mother Wudang asked strangely.

"Money-minded?" The Holy Mother Jin Ling smiled mysteriously. "Wudang, you’ll know when the time comes."
