Fa Hua waved his hand, signaling the others to leave.
"Abbot!"
The Twelve Guardian Deities and the Three Chiefs couldn't leave. Hui Neng suffered a palm strike and was seriously injured. His face was deathly pale.
"Get out!" Fa Hua's voice was low.
The monks had no choice but to turn around and leave.
Lu Zhou was not afraid of exposing his identity as a golden lotus cultivator, and yet, he chased his disciples away.
After the monks left the main hall, Fa Hua sighed heavily.
"To tell you the truth, I've always disapproved of Junior Brother Fa Kong's actions. I don't approve of the Sky Martial Court's research on the Beyond Heaven either. Buddha is merciful, and all living things are equal. Why must the strong bully the weak? Not many people knew about the existence of the Golden Lotus. When I learned about it, I strongly opposed it. Unfortunately, Junior Brother Fa Kong refused to come to his senses … This old monk is surprised by his death, yet it's within my expectations. "
Lu Zhou looked at Fa Hua in surprise.
She didn't expect him to have such thoughts.
The bandits in the world never talked about the principle of equality of all living beings. Everyone has a different understanding of "equality".
Lu Zhou nodded calmly. "How much do you know about the golden lotus?"
"I only know that the golden lotus domain is very weak. When Fa Kong was still around, he mentioned it to me. Fakong and I have conflicting temperaments, so we don't talk much. When the Sky Martial Court studied the Beyond Heaven and discovered the existence of the golden lotus domain, they sent people to investigate. Fa Kong has formed an alliance with the Sky Martial Court and accepted the mission to kill the strongest person in the golden lotus domain. "As soon as Fa Hua finished speaking, he placed a hand on his chest and coughed lightly.
"Since you're against it, why didn't you stop Fa Kong?" Lu Zhou asked.
Fa Hua sighed heavily again. "Old benefactor, you might not know this, but I'm afraid the Sky Martial Court's Master is a Ten-leaf cultivator."
At the mention of the Ten-leaf stage, a hint of reverence could be seen in Fa Hua's eyes. A hint of helplessness could be seen in his eyes.
Lu Zhou was slightly moved.
This was one of the most important pieces of information he had received since coming into contact with the Red Lotus.
This meant Lu Zhou could not act recklessly just because he was a Nine-leaf cultivator.
Indeed, if the Sky Martial Court had a Ten-leaf cultivator, they would not stand a chance.
At the same time, a question popped up in Lu Zhou's mind. Since there were Ten-leaf cultivators, why did the Sky Shuttle not send their strongest cultivators?
When Fa Hua saw Lu Zhou was lost in his thoughts, he asked, "Did Fa Kong really ambush you, old benefactor?"
"I don't like lying," Lu Zhou said.
Fa Hua shook his head and said: "Karma, sin. Since old benefactor has come to seek revenge, this old monk has nothing more to say. "
"You haven't answered my question." Lu Zhou glanced at him. He rose to his feet and paced with his hands on his back.
"Old benefactor, are you talking about the other golden lotus cultivators?" "A few months ago, there were rumors that a golden lotus avatar fought a red lotus avatar in the Thousand Willow Monastery."
"The Thousand Willow Monastery?" Lu Zhou turned to look at Fa Hua.
"It's just a rumor that the Ninth Temple's Grand Elder fought the two golden lotuses for a long time with the Square Directions Box. Later on, the Sky Martial Court and the Flying Star House announced that it was fake news. I don't know if it's true or not. " Fa Hua's tone changed. "However, based on the Sky Martial Court's usual style, it's highly possible that this is true."
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded.
He memorized the names of the Thousand Willow Monastery and the Ninth Temple.
Thinking back to the Merit Point notifications he had received in the past, the two of them had killed quite a number of experts.
It was not surprising that he would occasionally reveal his avatar and fight others. However, why did the Sky Martial Court and the Flying Star House keep this a secret?
"The Ninth Temple's Grand Elder fought the two of them alone?" Lu Zhou asked.
"Old benefactor, don't underestimate the Ninth Temple. The Ninth Temple is comparable to the Sky Martial Court! The Grand Elder, Zhu Xuan, is said to be the closest person to the Nine-leaf stage in the past 50 years … He broke through to the Nine-leaf stage during his fight with the two golden lotus cultivators and suppressed them, "Fa Hua said.
She waved her fists and said angrily, "Master, let's go to the Ninth Temple now. They dared to attack my senior brother. I'm going to beat them up!"
'Senior brother?'
Fa Hua was shocked when he heard this title. He looked up and studied the old man before him.
Lu Zhou had the air of an immortal. His hair was white, and his every movement exuded the air of an elder. Realization dawned on Fa Hua.
"Old benefactor, are you here to look for a disciple?" Fa Hua asked in shock.
Lu Zhou did not answer his question. Instead, he asked, "Since you knew, why didn't you answer me earlier?"
They had to suffer physical pain before they could be considered to be honest.
From the moment he stepped into the Blood Sun Temple, Lu Zhou felt that the old monk was not a reckless person. He knew when to hold back and when to retreat. He did not choose to fight outside the Blood Sun Temple just because he possessed the karmic fire. Clearly, the old monk had good judgment.
Fa Hua wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth and clothes.
He said, "Old benefactor, I only used 50% of my strength in that palm strike."
"You did it on purpose?" Lu Zhou was puzzled.
"Old benefactor, you've met the three First Seats of the Blood Sun Temple … The Palm Zen Hall's First Seat, Hui Neng, is injured. The other two are the West Hall's First Seat, Hui Jue, and the Back Hall's Hui Sheng."
Fa Hua lowered his voice.
His Primal Qi surged as he projected his voice, "The three of them are from the palace."
Lu Zhou's deep eyes widened.
"Are you saying that they're here to keep an eye on you?"
"The world is vast, and there are many sects. A Nine-leaf cultivator can topple an entire region, and only one in ten thousand cultivators can master the karmic fire … How can the four seas be at peace without some tricks up their sleeves? The palace has its own tricks. Although the Blood Sun Temple has two karmic fire cultivators, it can't go against the entire world, "Fa Hua said.
"With your cultivation base, why not become a high-ranking official and rule the world? Or perhaps, you can travel the world. Who can stop you? "Lu Zhou asked casually.
"This old monk has no interest in an official career … Although the imperial court is strong, it is still restricted by the aristocratic families. The geniuses of the aristocratic families came from the various sects, and they mutually restrained and balanced each other. It was the art of an emperor. Furthermore, my heart belongs to the Blood Sun Temple. How can I abandon the Blood Sun Temple and travel the world? "Fa Hua sighed.
Lu Zhou knew too little about the red lotus domain.
The conflicts between the forces in the red lotus domain were not simple. In fact, they were even more complicated than Great Yan.
Perhaps it was because the two of them didn't have enough time to talk.
A voice came from outside the main hall.
"Abbot!"
"Abbot!"
Lu Zhou and Fa Hua looked in the direction of the voice.
The newcomers were none other than the Blood Sun Temple's West Hall and Rear Hall First Hall, Hui Neng and Hui Sheng.
Fa Hua regained his composure and asked, "What is it?"
"Senior Huijue's injuries are serious."
"I know." Fa Hua staggered to his feet.
Hui Neng and Hui Sheng quickly ran over and supported him.
Now that he looked at it carefully, it was more like three people were monitoring one person.
How unexpected …
'Interesting.'
Hui Neng straightened his palm at Lu Zhou and said, "No matter where you came from, old benefactor, since you've injured the abbot, you've vented your anger. Can you stay for the night? After the abbot recovers, we can talk again."
Lu Zhou understood the meaning behind Hui Neng's words.
He shook his head and said, "No need. I have other matters to attend to. "
He looked at Fa Hua and said, "Out of consideration for your cultivation base, I didn't kill you. I'll come for you when I'm done with my business. "
Fa Hua. "…"
Lu Zhou waved at Little Yuan 'er and Conch.
The two maidservants acknowledged him and followed him out of the Main Hall.
However …
As soon as they stepped out of the main hall, they saw the 12 vajras and 1,000 monks hovering in the air. They surrounded the main hall.
Hui Neng and Hui Sheng supported Fa Hua as they walked out.
Fa Hua said sternly, "Stand down. You're not to stop us. "
The monks retreated.
Hui Neng suddenly said, "Abbot, the foreign cultivators from the golden lotus domain … This …"
Lu Zhou had only taken two steps when he suddenly stopped.
He turned around with his hands on his back and looked at Hui Neng and Hui Sheng. Then, he shifted his gaze to Fa Hua and said, "The Buddha is merciful and doesn't discriminate between good and evil. Fa Hua, have you killed before?"
"Amitabha. The Blood Sun Temple's commandment forbids killing. Therefore, among the remaining sins, killing is the heaviest. Among all the merits, not killing is the most severe."
As soon as he finished speaking.
Lu Zhou said indifferently, "In that case, I'll kill for you."
Grand technique. There was a flash of shadows.
A golden lotus bloomed under Lu Zhou's feet. Nine golden leaves spun, and the golden flames intimidated the monks.
Lu Zhou struck with both hands at the same time. The Power of Will.
Two shimmering golden Great Seals of Fearlessness shot out.
Hui Neng and Hui Sheng finally realized the two palm strikes were aimed at them. Whizz!
Whizz!
The two of them summoned their Eight-leaf red lotus avatars and raised their arms to block at the same time. Energy intersected as energy seals appeared.
Bam!
Bam!
Two palm seals struck Hui Neng and Hui Sheng's arms almost at the same time.
The two of them reeled back.
They spat out mouthfuls of blood.
A Nine-leaf golden lotus, karmic power, and the Heavenly Writing's extraordinary power. How could mere Eight-leaf cultivators withstand this?
Boom!
Boom!
Hui Neng crashed into the huge pillar on the left of the Great Strength Hall. Hui Sheng crashed into the huge pillar on the right, destroying the couplet inscribed on the stone pillar.
The first line: Pure land lotus, a flower, a Buddha, and a world.
The second line: Muni pearl offering, samadhi, samyak-sambodhi.
Crack!
The words shattered and fell to the ground.
The two of them died on the spot!
