Chapter 1431: Monk of Fasui Temple
"Yes, we were recruited personally by Mr. Chen," Black Tiger nodded.
"Heh, and so what? When it comes down to it, you're still just beasts, nothing more than the difference between domestic and wild ones," the monk grinned.
"You..." Black Tiger's expression changed drastically; for their kind, the thing they most detested was being called beasts by others.
Qingji, standing to the side, grabbed Black Tiger: "Don't be impulsive, he is trying to provoke you."
Black Tiger suddenly realized that once this monk knew their identities, it wouldn't be easy to make a move, but he was unwilling to let it go, so he used this method to provoke him; if he had really attacked the monk just now, it would have been real trouble.
"Not bad, quite smart," the monk stared at Qingji, and he couldn't help but smile: "The demons that can be favored by Chen Yu are indeed extraordinary, very spiritual."
"Master, we two have neither done anything wicked nor harmful, and we were specially recruited by the Demon Department, so please let us go, Master," Qingji steadied herself and said: "Besides, Master is also a disciple of the Buddha, and should treat everyone with an attitude of universal salvation."
"Quite eloquent," the monk nodded slightly, his eyes narrowing as he said: "But this trick of yours is useless on me. To tell you the truth, I have my eye on your two Demon Cores. Hand over the Demon Cores yourselves, and I won't detain your Soul Consciousness."
The two men's expressions changed drastically; if they handed over their cores, it would be no different from being killed.
"Is the Master trying to force our hands?" Black Tiger's expression was ugly, his fists clenched tightly.
"I am indeed forcing your hands, can't you tell?" the monk laughed loudly: "Did you really think that by wearing the coat of the Demon Department, you could make me show mercy? Heh, how truly naive."
"Even if I were to wipe you out, it would be acting on behalf of heaven. Today I am only taking the Demon Cores and not destroying your Soul Consciousness; that is already being very polite. You two had better not be ungrateful."
"What is the difference between taking our Demon Cores and killing us?" Black Tiger said coldly: "Since that is the case, there is nothing left to talk about. Although we are demons and our status is humble, we are not here to be slaughtered by you at will."
"Fine, since that's the case, I have even more reason," the monk laughed loudly, clasping his hands together and letting out a deep shout.
Two rays of Buddha Light surged up, trapping the two of them directly on the spot.
The monk's expression was ferocious, revealing a sinister smile: "Since you won't cooperate, I can only forcibly peel out your Demon Cores and make sure you can never be reincarnated for all eternity."
As he moved his hands, the two figures floated up involuntarily, suspended in mid-air, and then the monk slowly opened his hands.
Black Tiger and Qingji only felt as if their bodies were about to be torn apart; the two let out a painful roar, exerting all their Demon Power in an attempt to break free, but the monk's strength was too powerful, and no matter how they struggled, it was useless.
"You... don't need to struggle anymore, it's useless even if you do," the monk laughed loudly: "My Buddha is merciful, but my Buddha Power is not something you can just break free from. Just honestly let me take your Demon Cores..."
Under the monk's control, the two bodies twisted violently, and it looked as if they were about to be twisted in half by the monk's Buddha Power.
But just at this moment, a voice came over: "The Master is also a monk, what kind of skill is it to bully two small demons?"
Following this voice, four figures suddenly appeared.
Three men and one woman; the leader was Chen Yu, followed by Liu Ruxi, and the Senior Brother and Junior Brother pair, Li Yunshan and Li Hongyu, followed closely behind.
Li Hongyu was holding a Wooden Carving of a puppet and studying it; he already had three or four wooden-carved figures hanging on him, but he was still carving, attempting to find the Dao of cultivation within them.
As Chen Yu's voice arrived, the monk only felt his hands loosen, and his Buddha Light vanished without a trace. Black Tiger and Qingji fell to the ground, gasping for air; if Chen Yu hadn't arrived in time, they would likely have had their Demon Cores forcibly taken.
"Who are you?" the monk turned his head and stared coldly at the people before him, his mood extremely unpleasant at being forced to interrupt his spell.
"I am Chen Yu," Chen Yu looked at Black Tiger and Qingji: "Are you two alright?"
"We're fine, thank you Mr. Chen," Black Tiger climbed up and helped Qingji up.
"Heh, so you are Chen Yu? The rising star of Dragon Breath?" the monk suddenly realized, looking at Chen Yu with an expression of surprise.
"Yes, I am Chen Yu, though I dare not claim to be a rising star," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Who is the Master? Where did you study?"
"Heh, based on who you are, you aren't qualified to know where I studied," the monk sneered.
"Looking at the aura on your body, you should be a disciple of Fasui Temple, right?" Liu Ruxi said: "Fasui Temple follows the masses, but you forcibly seize Demon Cores; how is this any different from a bandit?"
"Little girl, to be able to see through my origins at a glance, you are not simple," the monk turned his head to look at Liu Ruxi, unable to help but feel a bit surprised.
"As people of the same path, it is nothing strange to see it," Liu Ruxi smiled slightly: "However, Master, you cannot see through my origins, can you?"
"I cannot see it; what kind of demon or monster are you?" the monk turned his head to look at Liu Ruxi.
Liu Ruxi said nothing; she beckoned with her right hand, and a Green Lotus suddenly appeared in her palm. Watching that slowly rotating Green Lotus, the monk was instantly stunned.
"Life Green Lotus, you... you have already reached the realm of Buddha Face Buddha Heart?" the monk was shocked, looking at Liu Ruxi in disbelief.
"That's right, I am now at the realm of Buddha Face Buddha Heart. Counting it up, we are people of the same path; do you know what your behavior is called?" Liu Ruxi said indifferently.
"I don't need you to teach me how Fasui Temple does things, do I?" the monk's expression was ugly.
"What kind of damn Fasui Temple is that?" Li Yunshan said disdainfully: "It's nothing more than a group of hypocritical monks who rely on their strength to seize things by force. Do you want to try saying that again?"
"Heh, it looks like you are going to bully the few with the many?" the monk laughed: "Are you all going to swarm us?"
"Swarm you? I'm afraid you aren't qualified to say such things," Chen Yu smiled and said: "To be honest, any one of us here could deal with you; do we need to swarm you? Master, do you have some misunderstanding about your own strength?"
The monk's expression was ugly; indeed, any one of the people in front of him could defeat him.
Not to mention Chen Yu, who could earn a place for himself in Dragon Breath and was definitely not someone to be trifled with, and Liu Ruxi, who even possessed a Life Green Lotus, was even more untouchable.
As for these two old men, although they hadn't shown their strength, they were not easy to provoke either. Truthfully, if they really started fighting, he wouldn't be able to gain any advantage at all.
