Chapter 83: She Brought an Entire Hundred-Man Army All by Herself!

"How dare you!"

Monk Jieguo, who had been unhurried until now, suddenly panicked after seeing the palm strike Lu Ren abruptly unleashed.

He shouted sternly, disregarding his image as a master and unable to maintain his composure, as he reached out and sent a copper bowl flying, hoping to block some of the force for Long Tian'ao.

But how could he be faster than Lu Ren?

Lu Ren's palm struck straight at the crown of Long Tian'ao's head; a massive force erupted from his palm, carrying no intent to take Long Tian'ao's life, but surging directly into his dantian.

"Stop!"

Monk Jieguo's eyes were bloodshot, and ignoring everything else, he shouted, "Lu Ren! Do you insist on becoming an enemy of our Buddhist Sect? Stop!"

However, it was already too late.

An irresistible force directly destroyed Long Tian'ao's dantian, rampaging through the spiritual roots and meridians of his body, destroying everything in its path.

A surge of metallic sweetness rose in Long Tian'ao's throat, and blood sprayed like a fountain onto the ground before him, yet he paid no heed to the gushing blood, feeling his empty dantian in disbelief.

It was gone!

It was gone!

Everything was gone!

Decades of bitter cultivation turned to ash under this palm strike from Lu Ren; everything was gone! "No!"

He let out a desperate wail.

Yet, unnoticed, a smudge of gray-black quietly appeared on the ground stained with his blood, and the blood that had been turning black-red slowly vanished without a trace, though no one paid it any mind.

Only Ji Shisi seemed to sense something, casting his gaze behind the crowd and seeing a figure quietly retreating.

He was merely slightly surprised and did not speak up.

Behind the crowd, Lu Daoshuang patted her chest, feeling a lingering fear.

She had thought her actions were quiet enough, but she had not expected to be discovered; fortunately, the person who discovered her was, at the very least, in the same camp as her family.

She exhaled slightly, collected her thoughts, and only joy remained in her eyes.

With her strength, she certainly could not participate in the battlefield ahead.

But that did not mean there was nothing she could do.

Lu Daoshuang's lips curled slightly.

The blood of a powerhouse, and what's more, it contained a portion of heart blood.

With her clan leader and Ancestor Feng covering for her, she had obtained it with ease.

It was simply... perfect.

Let her think...

Would it be better to create a gu-insect with Long Tian'ao's bloodline to influence his mind? Or should she try to see if she could use the blood he left behind to create a puppet that would obey her completely?!

Lu Daoshuang could not help but curl her lips into a smile, her expression sweet and cloying.

She was so looking forward to it! She truly could not wait!

……

……

"You!"

Monk Jieguo looked at Lu Ren in disbelief.

A monk should not be prone to anger, but at this moment, he could not restrain his fury.

"You actually dared to touch the Buddha Son of my Buddhist Sect! Lu Ren, do you intend to make an enemy of the entire Buddhist Sect of Dongzhou!"

Jieguo looked at Long Tian'ao with unconcealable heartache.

This was the only Buddha Son to appear in their Buddhist Sect in thousands of years who had achieved a return to the origin; he was gifted with superior talent, favored by heaven and earth, and gathered all Qi Luck unto himself.

He should have risen step by step to lead the Buddhist Sect to Great Completion.

But it had come to an abrupt end.

His path was terminated by this single palm strike.

Even if their Buddhist Sect had a method to reshape Long Tian'ao's spiritual roots, the time lost would ultimately be lost.

Jieguo's chest heaved, his heart filled with rage.

Lu Ren, however, laughed with disdain.

"The Buddhist Sect?"

"What is your Buddhist name?"

Jieguo did not know why he asked this, but he still suppressed his anger and said, "This old monk is Jieguo!"

Before Lu Ren could react, Lin Xiu beside him could not help but laugh out loud.

A smile played on his face.

"Jieguo? So your Buddhist Sect has already passed down to the 'Precept' generation; when my second brother slaughtered his way into your Buddhist Sect and shattered your Buddha Lord's heart, it seems only a few decades have passed."

"You little monk of the 'Jie' generation are truly a newborn calf unafraid of the tiger."

"As for being an enemy of the Buddhist Sect."

Lin Xiu acted as if he had heard something amusing. He let out a very loud "Ha!"

"So what if I am?"

"Instead of asking if Wanren City intends to be an enemy of your Buddhist Sect, you should ask your current Buddha Lord if he intends to be an enemy of my Origin of Life and Death?"

Jieguo had not paid attention to this person who had suddenly appeared.

But hearing him say this, he finally deigned to cast a glance at him.

He was slightly startled and suspicious.

"You are from Origin of Life and Death?"

Lin Xiu chuckled softly: "This humble one is untalented, but I am indeed the Fate Master of Fate Birth and Extinction."

"Little monk, have you considered it well?"

"Words spoken are like spilled water; they are not easily taken back," Feng Wuyou said, bestowing a faint glance.

Jie Guo frowned.

"And who are you?"

"I am Feng Wuyou!"

She did not even need to say where she came from; these three words alone were as thunderous as a deafening roar.

Jie Guo's heart leaped with alarm.

Even for him, even when facing the future Buddha Son of his own sect, he could not help but feel it was thorny.

One is the actual power-holder of Wanren City.

Furthermore, he is a powerhouse who has already reached the Supreme Saint realm.

The top spot on the Hundred-Year Ranking has never been pushed down by anyone.

There are rumors that if he were to pass the age of one hundred and enter the Thousand-Year Ranking, he would certainly not fall behind others.

Moreover, according to previous rumors, Lu Ren carries two Strange Fires, which is extremely extraordinary.

Nowadays, it is difficult to measure where the upper limit of his strength lies.

Then there is the other one.

Jie Guo is not very wary of Lin Xiu's current strength.

However... the power that Lin Xiu represents behind him makes him feel extremely thorny.

Fate Birth and Extinction...

If it were any other power, it would not be much of an obstacle.

Lin Xiu has now almost become a cripple.

If the master of any other power faced such a predicament, I fear the seat beneath their buttocks would have long since changed hands.

But Fate Birth and Extinction is different.

If one speaks of loyalty, Lin Xiu only needs one word to make everyone in Fate Birth and Extinction die for him.

And he would not need to give any reason.

This is also the reason why Long Tian'ao is anxious to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots.

If given a certain amount of time, he would definitely be able to recover his climate and strike back.

Not to mention, there is also the Empress of the Dayu Imperial Dynasty.

This person is also unfathomable.

Her own strength is not the issue.

But as a tyrant of the Emperor's Path, she commands all the contractors under her.

Born for her, dying for her.

Wherever the monarch's thoughts go, they are invincible.

Others are all fighting alone, or at most in groups of three or five, but she alone brings an army of a hundred people!

The monk Jie Guo could not help but have a headache.

If Long Tian'ao had provoked other powers, it would be fine, but why did he have to provoke this existence that combines these three into one?

He...

fell silent.

A monk knows how to bend and stretch; Jie Guo decisively made up his mind.

He took a step back, lowered his brows slightly, and chanted a Buddhist name, "Amitabha."

"Donor Lu, this old monk was just now overcome by anger and has offended you greatly; I hope Donor Lu will forgive me."

"But this person Long Tian'ao is indeed the future Buddha Son of our Buddhist Sect; the Buddhist Sect does not wish to be enemies with Wanren City, so please, Donor Lu, release him."

"The Buddhist Sect is willing to keep an eye on the Buddha Son and will no longer be enemies with Wanren City; I ask that Donor Lu show leniency for the sake of our Buddhist Sect Master."
