Lying on the ground, Ba Jie shrunk his legs back in fear and nodded repeatedly. He knew that if he didn't listen now, his Big Brother might really do something like this. He was indeed the one who caused this trouble. A wise man knows when to retreat, so he accepted his fate!
Seeing this, Grandmaster Qi Jie and Blood Demon realized that Ba Jie might have caused some trouble. They both stood up and accepted Miao Yi's invitation.
"Benefactor Miao, what trouble did this idiot cause?" Grandmaster Qi Jie had to ask.
Miao Yi glanced at the temple, then extended his hand again. "Grandmaster, please follow me. We can talk later."
It wasn't convenient to talk about it here. Last time, Yao Monk Nan Bo had told him that he could hear conversations outside even after being petrified. There was no way Miao Yi would talk about this in front of Nan Bo. This was the reason why he smashed up the temple as soon as he arrived. He wanted to temporarily control Nan Bo so that Grandmaster Qi Jie and Blood Demon could follow him.
The two of them could tell from Miao Yi's gaze as he looked at the temple, so they obeyed and followed him. At the same time, the two of them also realized that Ba Jie must have caused quite a bit of trouble this time. Otherwise, Miao Yi wouldn't have tried to avoid Yao Monk Nan Bo, and he wouldn't have beaten Ba Jie to this state.
This was the first time the two of them had seen Ba Jie beaten up like this. They had always seen Ba Jie scamming others, but never this pitiful. He was beaten up so badly, especially by his own Big Brother!
As they walked down the stairs, the two of them turned back to look at Ba Jie, who was still pretending to be pitiful. They sighed inwardly. Finally, they met someone who could deal with him.
As they walked out of the valley and towards the lakeside, Grandmaster Qi Jie asked again, "What trouble did Ba Jie cause?"
"Misfortune!" Miao Yi looked up to the sky and sighed. He shook his head helplessly and asked, "Grandmaster, do you know Yu Luocha's true identity?"
Grandmaster Qi Jie asked curiously, "Is there a problem?"
Beside him, Blood Demon suddenly asked, "Could this Yu Luocha really be the Jade-Faced Buddha of the Western Paradise?"
Miao Yi turned to look at her, then nodded and sighed. "That's right. She is indeed the Jade-Faced Buddha of the Western Paradise."
Both master and disciple were shocked. They didn't expect this seemingly young woman to be the Lady Buddha of the Western Paradise.
Grandmaster Qi Jie was shocked. "Why is she here?"
Miao Yi explained the gist of the situation, "This is all my fault. I had a conflict with her in the outside world, and was threatened by her. So I lured her here, hoping to use the geographical advantage of this place to get rid of her and prevent any future troubles. Who would have thought that this woman would be so difficult to deal with. I tried everything I could think of, but to no avail. That's why I allowed her to appear before you all."
It was another round of gratitude and grudges, fighting and killing. Grandmaster Qi Jie clasped his palms together and said, "Amitabha, good indeed, good indeed!"
The Blood Demon was even more shocked. She had come into contact with Miao Yi in the past. She never thought that in just a few years, Miao Yi would grow to the point where he could clash head-on with Jadeface Buddha. She couldn't help but ask, "Are you still at Sky Street?"
Miao Yi turned around and said, "It's been a long time. It's understandable that you haven't heard about what's going on in the outside world for a long time. I'm currently stationed in the Netherworld as the Netherworld's Capital Commander!"
"Netherworld Domain Chief?" Xue Yao was stunned and asked in confusion, "Where did the Netherworld Domain Chief come from?"
Miao Yi replied, "There have been some changes. The Celestial Court has established a new position. I'm in charge of the Netherworld Domain, directly under the Celestial Valley Palace!"
"I never thought that Almsgiver had already become a vassal. Amitabha!" The Blood Demon clasped her palms together. Even though her heart had calmed down, her emotions were still rippling. She couldn't help but marvel at the speed at which Miao Yi was climbing the ranks.
Qi Jie didn't care about the position. He was only concerned about what was going on with Ba Jie. He asked, "Could something have happened between Ba Jie and Yu Luocha?"
"Haah!" Miao Yi raised his hand and slapped his forehead, looking like he was having a terrible headache. "That bastard got Yu Luocha pregnant behind our backs."
"Ah!" Grandmaster Qi Jie and the Blood Demon exclaimed in shock. They couldn't keep their cool anymore and asked in unison, "How is that possible?"
Miao Yi said, "I didn't think it was possible either. But that's the truth …" He then explained the situation in the valley to them.
"Amitabha!" The master and disciple clasped their palms together and chanted the name of Buddha to calm themselves down.
Miao Yi said, "The problem now is that I know Ba Jie's personality all too well. If there's something he doesn't like, he'll probably try his best to avoid it. There's a high chance that he'll try to harm Yu Luocha again …"
As they conversed, the three of them arrived at the stilt house by the lake. They found Yu Luocha sitting on the stairs in a daze. She didn't even notice that someone was standing right in front of her.
Her fine black hair fluttered in the wind, and the bright red handprint on her face stood out. It was hard to tell what she was thinking about.
Grandmaster Qi Jie and the Blood Demon exchanged glances. Her monk robes were loose, so the two of them couldn't tell that Yu Luocha was pregnant just yet.
Looking at the absent-minded woman before them, Miao Yi couldn't help but admire her. He had seen ruthless people before, but never one as ruthless as she was. The mighty Jade-Faced Buddha actually didn't mind getting pregnant to protect herself.
"Yu Luocha!" Miao Yi shouted.
Yu Luocha snapped out of her daze. She stared blankly at the three of them for a moment, then stood up and walked down the wooden stairs. She placed her fingers on her chest and bowed to Grandmaster Qi Jie, saying, "Grandmaster is here."
Even though she hadn't known Qi Jie for long and hadn't interacted much with him, Qi Jie was the first and only person among them who had truly earned her respect.
Qi Jie pressed his palms together and bowed, then tilted his head to the Blood Demon and gestured.
The Blood Demon stepped forward and grabbed Yu Luocha's wrist. Yu Luocha naturally understood what he meant. She gently raised her wrist.
The Blood Demon placed his fingers on her pulse. Even though he couldn't use his transcendence energy, cultivators were extremely familiar with the aura of the body's meridians. He could tell whether she was pregnant or not just by feeling her pulse.
After confirming that Yu Luocha was indeed pregnant, the Blood Demon was momentarily dazed. He thought back to how he had pursued Ba Jie for so long all those years ago, and yet he still couldn't make love to her. This woman had only known Ba Jie for a short period of time, and yet she was already pregnant with his child. She didn't feel any jealousy towards this. She had experienced those unbearable debauchery back in the valley, and especially after Ba Jie had witnessed it with his own eyes. She already knew that it was impossible for her and Ba Jie to be together. She just couldn't help but lament as she reminisced about the past.
When she regained her senses, she realized that she had been overthinking things. She pressed her palms together and silently recited a mantra before nodding to Grandmaster Qi Jie, indicating that Yu Luocha was indeed pregnant.
"Haah!" Grandmaster Qi Jie shook his head and sighed. He was helpless to meet such a shameless disciple. What else could he do now? He was someone who strongly disapproved of killing, so he wouldn't allow Yu Luocha to dispose of the life in her womb. He turned to Miao Yi and nodded, "We will do as you say, Benefactor."
Then, he pointed to the Blood Demon and said to Yu Luocha, "Your body isn't feeling well. From today onwards, Ba Hui will be staying with you. She will take care of your daily life."
Yu Luocha was taken aback. Then, she suddenly burst into tears. She couldn't help but bow and say, "Big Brother, thank you!"
She had obviously subconsciously followed Ba Jie's form of address.
She was still thinking about what she should do. She had no experience with childbirth. Ba Jie's attitude was like that, and Miao Yi wanted nothing more than to kill her. She didn't even know what she was going to do when the child was born. How was she going to deal with it all by herself as a mortal? She didn't even have anyone to ask around. She was all alone by the lakeside, waiting to give birth. No one could understand the fear in her heart.
She really didn't expect that not only would Miao Yi protect the child in her womb, but Miao Yi would also immediately help her resolve this worry by bringing Ba Hui to take care of her. At this moment, her heart was filled with warmth. At the very least, she was certain of one thing. No matter what happened in the future, Miao Yi would never abandon her child. Miao Yi truly placed her child in his heart, and he would never mistreat her child.
At this moment, she truly felt like she had a family. The way he addressed her as' Big Brother 'was a form of respect that came from the bottom of her heart.
Miao Yi's lips twitched. He really wanted to yell 'I'm not your Big Brother', but when he saw the look on her face, especially the bright red handprint on her face, he thought about how she was pregnant with Ba Jie's child, and how Ba Jie still treated her. It didn't seem right for him to bully her as well. Thus, he didn't say it out loud, afraid that it would affect the child in her womb. He turned around and pretended he didn't hear anything, then said to Grandmaster Qi Jie, "Grandmaster, I'll leave Demonic Monk Nan Bo in your care. If Ba Jie is disobedient, you must tell me. I will deal with him!"
He clearly knew that Grandmaster Qi Jie couldn't control Ba Jie.
"Amitabha!" Grandmaster Qi Jie agreed. He then turned to Xue Yao and said, "Ba Hui, keep an eye on things here."
"Yes, Master!" Xue Yao clasped his hands together and bowed.
Grandmaster Qi Jie gave Yu Luocha a few words of consolation, then didn't stay any longer. He left Ba Jie alone to look after Demonic Monk Nan Bo. That disciple of his was simply too good at stirring up trouble. After that, he turned around and left with Miao Yi.
Yu Luocha watched them leave with teary eyes. She knew that Miao Yi didn't like her at all. She knew that it was mostly because of her dirty past. Miao Yi loved that little brother of his so much. Even though he had beaten Ba Jie up so badly, it was still a kind of love that stemmed from disappointment. No Big Brother would allow his little brother to marry such a filthy woman. She knew very well that a child was a child. She didn't even need to think about marrying Ba Jie. Miao Yi would probably be the first to reject it. He probably wouldn't agree to it even if he was beaten to death.
Even so, she was filled with gratitude and gratitude towards Miao Yi. At the very least, through this incident, she had finally seen what kind of person Miao Yi was. He was a man who valued relationships deeply.
"It's windy outside. Let's go in." Xue Yao turned around and held Yu Luocha's elbow, then helped her into the house.
"Ahhh!"
Outside the temple, Ba Jie let out another miserable cry. As soon as Miao Yi returned, he gave Ba Jie a vicious kick and asked, "Where did you get the seasoning you used to cook the food? Hand it over! "
At dawn the next day, the stilted house by the lakeside let out a creak as it bathed in the first rays of dawn. Ba Hui had just opened the door with a basin of clean clothes when he couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
Yu Luocha also came out when she heard the sound. In the end, she saw a pile of items placed at the bottom of the stairs outside. There were all kinds of cooking utensils, and a few freshly skinned wild animals.
The two of them looked around but didn't see anyone. They didn't know who had placed them there, so they exchanged glances.
From that day onwards, freshly skinned wild animals would be hung outside every other day. Different kinds of wild animals would be delivered to them in a variety of different styles. Sometimes, they would even be accompanied by fresh wild vegetables. Clearly, they were all sent here to nourish Yu Luocha's body. However, every time, they only saw the food and never saw the person delivering it.
After figuring out the pattern, one morning, Yu Luocha and Xue Yao stood in front of the window and peered outside through a crack.
As expected, Miao Yi eventually appeared in their line of sight. He had a wild chicken, a wild rabbit, and a bundle of lush green wild vegetables. All of them had been freshly skinned and were gently hung by the railing outside the wooden house. Then, he turned around and left.
