"This …" The Wisdom Buddha Diagram immediately understood, and hesitation appeared on its face.
Fei Yue Qingchen did not allow any explanation and called behind her, "Ling 'er, come see your master."
"Master."
Wisdom Painting could not see, but she could feel a fresh life in front of her. Her expression changed slightly, "Senior Apprentice Brother, you cannot do this!"
"I know what you are worried about," Fei Yue Qingchen said. "She only has a second uncle left in her family who does not treat her well. She was chosen for the concubine selection today. I took pity on her young age and begged to bring her back to accompany you. If you do not want her, she can only return to the palace. Bodhi Temple does not allow women to be kind except for the Book of Yuan. "
The Wisdom Buddha Diagram laughed bitterly and agreed helplessly. She walked out to the young girl and asked warmly, "You are called Ling 'er?"
"My name is Ling 'er, Master," the young girl said. She was twenty-eight years old and her black hair was faintly crimson. It was clear that she had very little Rakshasa royal blood. But it seemed that she had been malnourished for a long time. Her face was pale yellow and her figure was thin, as if a gust of wind could blow her away. She had a pair of very complicated eyes, as if she had experienced too many vicissitudes of life. They were mature and numb. Even when she called out to someone, there was no warmth to speak of.
In reality, she was not a chosen beauty, but a slave girl bought from the market. The slave trade was very popular in Asura Realm. Slaves could even be used as currency. In Asura Realm, the most prominent symbol of a slave was their name. If someone asked you for your name and you did not reply with your surname, you would be captured as a slave.
"I bestow upon you the surname Fei Yue. From now on, you are no longer a slave. But if you harm her or make her dissatisfied, you can take back what I gave you at any time."
Fei Yue Qingchen's words still echoed in her ears. She seemed to feel that she was too cold, so she used a more gentle voice and said, "My name is Fei Yue Ling, Master."
Fei Yue Qingchen glanced at her and said, "You two get along well." Then she left.
Wisdom Painting invited her into the house and wanted her to sit, but she refused no matter what. Slaves did not have the right to sit in front of their master. Wisdom Painting could only give up and said, "Don't call me Master, I am slightly older. If you do not mind, you can call me big sister."
"You can't do that, Master," Fei Yueling was truly terrified.
"Why not?" The Floating Wisdom Painting looked up at her. Although its eyes were lifeless, there was a calmness to them that greatly soothed Fei Yueling's spirit.
Fei Yueling asked tentatively, "Big Sister, Big Sister?"
"Sister Rin." Only then did the Buddha Wisdom Picture laugh. He suddenly thought of Xiao Chun, and wondered how she was doing in the Divine Prefecture. The light pillars that had brought them to the Jambu Gate seemed to have restricted the cultivators within a certain range. Xiao Chun was a mortal who could not cultivate.
"Just make do with me for the next few days," she said. "Later, I'll ask the senior brothers in the temple to help me build another house."
"I, I can also have my own room?" Fei Yueling asked incredulously.
The Floating Wisdom Diagram was surprised. "Don't tell me you didn't have it before?"
Crimson Moon Lin realized that she had made a slip of the tongue and hurriedly tried to cover up, "Second Uncle only allowed me to sleep in the woodshed." Although the truth was even worse than this. She had lived in any pig or cow shed, it all depended on the mood of the slave owner.
The Floating Wisdom Diagram felt pity for her and pulled her hand to sit down. "Sister Rin, I don't usually have meals. You're thin and weak, so you can't go hungry. I'll ask them to bring you some vegetarian food every day."
"Sister …" Fei Yueling felt a strange feeling in her heart that she had never felt since she was born.
"You speak the universal language very well. Have you been to the human world?" The Floating Wisdom Diagram asked.
"I was born in the human world and only returned here when I was ten," Fei Yueling answered carefully.
As the two sisters spoke, the sun began to set in the west. Shan Chen Guo brought vegetarian food and immediately recognized that Fei Yueling was a slave. He did not expose her and only said that he would bring people to help build the house the next day.
Unexpectedly, something happened before the next day.
In the latter half of the night, the people of the Infernal Realm suddenly attacked the mountain. The Great Black Heavenly Demon King even killed his way into the temple and fought with Zen Master Daozhen.
The people of the Tantric Sect that could not be chased away took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the temple.
In the latter half of the night, the entire Bodhi Temple was in an uproar. The Floating Wisdom Diagram naturally heard it and remembered that Fei Yueling had been gone for more than an hour. Could something have happened?
As she thought of this, she put on her clothes and walked out. Just then, she heard the sound of panicked footsteps crashing into her arms. "Sister …" she cried out miserably.
"Sister Lin, what's going on?" She was shocked. Then, she heard dozens of Emptiness Sect disciples surround them. The leader, Shan Chen, said angrily, "Be careful, Junior Sister. This person is a spy. She helped Xing Yue steal the Great Mage's golden body!"
The Floating Wisdom Diagram was shocked. "Sister Rin, is this true?"
"Sister, I'm sorry …" Fei Yueling forced herself to run back. She just wanted to see the Floating Wisdom Diagram one more time. At this time, she no longer had any regrets and used the dagger she had prepared. Her dagger did not pierce a vital point because the Floating Wisdom Diagram had sensed it and saved her. However, it still pierced into her flesh.
The disciples brought the blood-covered Fei Yueling away. The Floating Wisdom Diagram wanted to call out to her, but when she thought of the stolen Great Mage's golden body, which was a sacred object of Bodhi Temple, she shut her mouth. Then, she suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Senior-apprentice Brother Shan Chen, how is Senior-apprentice Brother Qingchen?"
Shan Chen paused, hesitating. "Senior-apprentice Brother made a grave mistake. He was just imprisoned in the Relic Forest!"
The Floating Wisdom Diagram's mind was thrown into chaos. She didn't know whether Fei Yueling Qingchen's mistake was bringing back a spy, or whether this spy had been arranged by him. If it was the former, what was she supposed to do?
As if they had planned this all along, after the Great Mage's golden body was stolen, the Unbroken Church retreated like the tide.
The Buddha Prajna Painting had also quietly descended the mountain before the sky had even brightened.
… …
Yan Li rode on his flying sword, following the path he had come from. He didn't sleep or rest, and it took him an entire three days and two nights to cross the Nine Suspending River and reach the human world. Every time he ran out of True Qi, he would choose a place to stop. If there was a small island, he would land on it. If there wasn't, he would meditate on his flying sword to recover. Fortunately, he was in a place with abundant water Primal Qi, so the Shattering Jade Song didn't need to use up his True Qi. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to continue traveling like this.
He landed directly at the port outside White Tiger Territory's Lu Zhou City, shocking the people around him. They had only heard of immortals flying in the sky. Even the peerless experts who were extremely powerful in their eyes couldn't fly in the sky.
Hence, they stopped what they were doing and made way for Yan Li with reverence, allowing him to pass unimpeded.
Yan Li acted like an immortal for a while. He reached out and put away the Shattering Jade Song. Then, he walked quickly along the path that was made up of people. During this time, not a single person dared to take a deep breath.
He wasn't in the mood to enjoy such treatment, so he arrived at his destination. But from outside the mansion, he saw a whole stretch of broken walls, and his heart couldn't help but sink. Initially, he had guessed that he had ordered Swallow Dock to relocate secretly and hadn't had the time to inform the Hatred Parting Palace. However, it seemed like that was not the case. He could see the traces of a battle among the many damaged areas.
"Master!" Fu 'er gripped Yan Li's hand tightly and tried to comfort him.
"I'm fine." Yan Li forced a smile. Just as he was about to enter, a voice called out from behind him.
"Yan Li!"
He turned around and saw Lu Hanqing and Yuan Fulun hurrying toward him. He cupped his fists and asked, "Did the two of you discover this?"
Yuan Fulun skipped the pleasantries and said, "Master heard that Swallow Dock was going to relocate, so he designated a secret place to help them settle down. However, on the day of the appointment, Madam Xiang and the others didn't show up. We waited for a day, but there was no news from them. Hence, Master sent the two of us to investigate. When we arrived, the mansion was already in this state."
"Let's go in and take a look." Yan Li invited the two of them to enter together. He then asked, "Since you've come early, do you know anything?"
Lu Hanqing said, "We've asked around. About ten days ago, the Lei Mansion was suddenly attacked in the middle of the night. The battle was very fierce, and the surrounding residences were all affected. According to eyewitnesses, they suddenly appeared without any warning. "
"Ten days ago? Suddenly? "Yan Li narrowed his eyes slightly.
Yuan Fulun continued, "From top to bottom of the Lei Mansion, including Swallow Dock, more than two hundred people were almost all dead. Fortunately, among these corpses, only one was a core member of Swallow Dock. "
"Who?" Yan Li asked.
"I heard his name is Ji Qing Hou." Lu Hanqing said.
Yan Li knew this person. He was a newly promoted core member of Li Xiang Jun, but he had never seen him before.
At this time, they arrived at the courtyard. The traces of swords, spears and magma were even more obvious. The air was still filled with the smell of blood, and there was still a lingering killing intent that made one's heart palpitate. The one who used the sword was Shen Wanzhou, he did not stand by and watch. The spear must be Yan Chaoyang, Swallow Dock wanted to move, he was here to help. There was no need to ask, the magma must be Li Kuofu.
The three of them had enough ability to protect themselves. The problem was Lu Bai Chuan and Li Xiang Jun.
"Before the murderer left, he destroyed most of the traces of the fight. There wasn't a single corpse or weapon at the scene," Yuan Fulun said. "Xiaobai and I searched the entire manor, but we didn't find a single valuable clue."
"Since they have the ability to do this, why hide it?" Yan Li frowned deeply.
"In this old man's opinion, some of them are afraid of revenge." Yuan Fulun said.
"Some of them?" Yan Li said.
Yuan Fulun said, "That's right, they should be a team that was put together at the last minute. There are about twenty of them, and they are all top experts. Some of them must know your identity, or they might be afraid of Yan Shiyi. In short, they have some misgivings. "
"Shh!"
Yan Li suddenly signaled for them to be quiet, his gaze shifted to the side, his eyes gradually turning cold, "Hiding your head and showing your tail, come out!" He did not seem to make a move, but Li Ya had already been unsheathed from the void, piercing straight into the wall, deeply sinking into it.
However, he did not expect to feel the touch. Suddenly, he felt the side of his face turn cold. He subconsciously leaned back, and a black blade spat out from the wall, sweeping past the tip of his nose.
In just a breath's time, the entire wall turned into dust.
When Yuan and Lu saw that person, their originally tense nerves relaxed, "Yan Shiyi, what are you hiding in?"
Yan Li frowned, and said: "When did you come?"
