In front of the main entrance of the Great Light Temple, Chu Xiu's group of experts stood there arrogantly, as though they were on a sightseeing tour.
It was not easy to observe the Great Light Temple of the Northern Buddhist Sect at such a close distance.
However, at this moment, the Great Light Temple's cultivators guarding the gate were looking at Chu Xiu and the others warily. Their faces showed that they were not afraid of death. Clearly, if Chu Xiu and the others dared to do anything like barging into the mountain gate, they would really dare to charge forward and risk their lives.
The gate was slowly pushed open. Xu Ci and the others walked out and looked at Chu Xiu unkindly.
Xu Yan was the first to say coldly, "Chu Xiu, what are you doing here at the Great Light Temple?"
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "Your Temple of Great Light is not some dragon's lair or tiger's den, so why can't I come?"
Xu Yan snorted. "Chu Xiu, don't be sarcastic here. Taoism is working together with Eastern Qi to suppress the Northern Yan. You are in trouble now. Are you here at the Great Light Temple just to enjoy the scenery?"
Chu Xiu's expression turned serious and he said in a low voice, "Master Xu Yan is right. I am here at the Great Light Temple because of this matter."
The people from the Great Light Temple were stunned.
Taoism is working together with Eastern Qi to suppress the Northern Yan. What are you doing here at the Great Light Temple?
Xu Yan sneered. "Are you here to tell us that Taoism and Buddhism are at odds with each other so that we can help you? If you have such thoughts, I advise you to go back. Although we read scriptures every day, we have not read to the point where our minds are muddled! "
Chu Xiu shook his head. "Of course I want the Great Light Temple to do this, but unfortunately, you won't. On the contrary, I am worried that the Great Light Temple will attack the Martial Suppression Hall. So today, I came first. After all, it is better to attack first than to attack later. "
Hearing this, the people from the Great Light Temple wanted to break their vows and curse.
They had never heard of such a ridiculous reason!
Just because you are worried that the Great Light Temple will attack you, you came first. What is this? Persecutory delusion? There are always people who want to harm me?
The Temple of Great Light was not the one who started this incident. In fact, they were still discussing whether or not they should make a move just now. They had yet to make up their minds.
Xu Ci said, "Chu Xiu, what are you trying to do? Just because of such a ridiculous reason, you personally brought your people and came to my Temple of Great Light in such an aggressive manner? "
Chu Xiu said solemnly, "Abbot Xu Ci, this reason isn't funny at all. On the contrary, it's very important. To fend off foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the internal situation. I am currently resisting Eastern Qi and Haotian Taoism. If someone stabs me in the back, who am I going to ask for justice? "
Chu Xiu's bold and confident words almost made Xu Ci laugh in anger. "Then tell me, what is the meaning of your visit? Don't tell me you want to destroy the Great Light Temple prematurely? "
Chu Xiu shook his head. "Of course not. The Bodhi Yard of the Great Light Temple has countless experts from the older generation. I can't destroy the Great Light Temple with just these few people. No one in the Pugilistic World can destroy the Great Light Temple either. I'm here to ask for a promise from the Great Light Temple. "
"What promise?"
Chu Xiu squinted. "A promise that in this incident, the Great Light Temple will remain neutral and will not attack. We will also have to swear to Buddha. Monks don't lie, not to mention that I've made a vow to Buddha. "
Xu Ci said coldly, "Impossible! The Great Light Temple will not give you any promises. Chu Xiu, you're forcing the Great Light Temple again. Perhaps the Great Light Temple wouldn't have made a move before, but now, the Great Light Temple doesn't mind making a move! "
Putting aside the fact that the Great Light Temple had not made up their mind to attack, even if they had made up their mind not to get involved, they would not give Chu Xiu any promises.
Since when did the Great Light Temple, one of the Buddhist sects in the north and south, have to make a promise to someone from the demonic path?
Chu Xiu's words completely infuriated Xu Ci. He took a step forward, and his body shone with Buddhist light. That powerful aura shot into the sky, and one could vaguely hear the sound of Buddhist chanting in midair.
The Evil Moon Saber was held in Chu Xiu's hand, and the inner demon was suppressing the power of the Evil Moon Saber. In that instant, a violent demonic aura swept through the sky. The sky was clear, but the shadow of a moon was reflected in the sky. It was a blood moon.
Seeing the confrontation between the two, Shang Tianliang cursed in his heart.
Like hell I'll believe you!
Previously, this Chu Xiu had promised him that he would not attack this time, but now he had come to provoke him. Wasn't he still going to attack?
However, this time, Chu Xiu did not attack directly. Instead, he suppressed the power of the Evil Moon Saber and said with a smile, "Master Xu Ci, don't be so agitated. I've already experienced your martial arts in the Primitive Demon Cave, and I don't want to experience it again. I'm not asking the Great Light Temple for this promise for free. I'm offering something in exchange. "
Seeing Chu Xiu restrain his saber, Xu Ci also restrained some of his power. He asked, "What are you offering?"
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and said, "I'll use the lives of 27,396 Buddhist monks in the Northern Yan Kingdom to trade!"
"What did you say!?"
This time, not only Xu Ci, but all the warriors from the Great Light Temple released a powerful aura, as if they wanted to swallow Chu Xiu alive.
Chu Xiu said coldly, "Masters, don't be so agitated. How do you usually address me, Chu Xiu? Is it the Demonic Dao Villain?
Since I've become a Demonic Dao Villain, I have to live up to this name.
What is the Demonic Dao? Despicable, shameless, cruel, murderous, committed all kinds of bad things, and committed all kinds of crimes. Am I right?
But this time, I didn't provoke the Dao Sect. In the end, not only did the Dao Sect want to suppress me, but they also want to destroy the foundation that I've built in the Northern Yan for so many years!
My principle, Chu Xiu, is that whoever makes life difficult for me, I'll make life difficult for them!
Next, I will use all my strength to face the pressure from Eastern Qi and the Dao Sect. There can be no mistakes in the future. So, the Great Light Temple has to give me this promise, even if you don't want to!
If you really don't give it to me, with an order from me, the Blue Dragon Society's assassins in the Northern Yan will immediately pluck the bald heads of 27,396 Buddhist monks in the Northern Yan territory. The Great Light Temple will be responsible for all of this!
Also, the Northern Yan court will issue a decree to exterminate the Buddhists in the Northern Yan territory!
Anyone who believes in Buddhism will be exiled to the bitter cold of the Far North. Anyone who secretly hides Buddhist scriptures will be punished with treason!
Master Xu Ci, do you believe that in this way, there will be no trace of your Buddhist lineage in the entire Northern Yan within a month?
When that time comes, all of you will be the sinners of the Buddhists! "
When Chu Xiu said this, everyone in the Great Light Temple turned pale. It was as if they wanted to skin Chu Xiu alive. Even Shang Tianliang looked at Chu Xiu in shock.
This move was truly sinister. They had seen wicked people, but they had never seen someone so wicked.
As the Great Light Temple was close to the Northern Yan territory, the Northern Yan Dao Sect's influence was not strong. On the contrary, there were still some small temples.
Although these people were not from the Great Light Temple, they were all disciples of the Buddhists. They came from the same source.
That was the lives of more than 20,000 Buddhist disciples. How could the Great Light Temple ignore it?
In addition, once the Northern Yan court issued the decree to exterminate the Buddhists, the foundation that the Great Light Temple had spent thousands of years building in the Northern Yan territory would be destroyed in a month's time!
After a long while, Xu Ci squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Chu Xiu! Don't you dare! "
Chu Xiu held his saber and said expressionlessly, "You'll see if I dare! Master Xu Ci, if you have the guts, then make a bet. Or you can leave me in the Great Light Temple right now. The choice is in your hands. "
Xu Ci, who had always appeared to be extremely calm, was so angry that his heart trembled. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I swear to Buddha that during the time when Eastern Qi and Taoism are attacking Northern Yan, the Temple of Great Light will seal off the mountain. Not a single monk will come out. Are you satisfied now?"
Chu Xiu put away his saber and smiled again. "Satisfied, of course I'm satisfied. Master Xu Ci, you're decisive. I'm impressed. If that's the case, I won't disturb you any longer. "
After that, Chu Xiu waved his hand and led his people down the mountain.
After Chu Xiu and the others left, Xu Yan was so angry that he was shaking. He could not even speak.
Xu Jing said coldly, "Shameless!"
Xu Yun snorted and said, "They deserve to die!"
Yuan Guang sighed and said, "Eight hundred years ago, this poor monk had never seen such a shameless and despicable demonic cultivator.
The morals of the world are degenerating, and people are not what they used to be.
800 years ago, even the demonic cultivators had to follow the rules. Why has it become like this now? "
Beside him, Xudu pursed his lips and said, "Most people from the demonic path follow the rules. Chu Xiu is the only one who doesn't. Otherwise, why do you think he has such strength and influence at such a young age? Those who aren't as strong as him have been beaten to death. Those who aren't as shameless as him have been tricked to death by him. "
Xu Ci said nothing with a dark expression. He only waved his hand and said, "Seal the mountain."
This time, the Great Light Temple would definitely suffer a loss. There was no point in saying anything more.
Chu Xiu could be shameless, but the Great Light Temple could not. They could not ignore the lives of the other monks, and the foundation of the Buddhist lineage in the Northern Yan could not be lost either. Therefore, they could only lower their heads.
Meanwhile, at the foot of the mountain, Shang Tianliang shook his head slightly and said, "Chu Xiu, kid, this move of yours is not just any ordinary sneaky move. Those monks from the Great Light Temple will definitely fight you to the death in the future. Moreover, you can only use this move once. I'm afraid it won't work a second time."
The people of the Great Light Temple were not idiots. After this incident, they would definitely make arrangements for the Buddhist disciples in the Northern Yan territory. They would not be threatened by Chu Xiu like this again.
Moreover, after this incident, the Great Light Temple would definitely hate Chu Xiu to the core. If there was another opportunity like this, they would definitely not hesitate and would directly make a move.
