Seeing her son being defeated, Li Yueying said with a cold face, "I know my brother very well. He would never marry Li Meiyu to a poor boy who is nothing. I think you're forging the marriage contract and trying to get the inheritance of the Li family."
Qin Haodong didn't care at all. He said with a smile, "Yes, but I'm not the one who forged the marriage contract."
Li Meiyu said, "I can prove that grandpa did promise to marry me to him."
"Well …"
Li Yueying and her son were suddenly at a disadvantage because of the marriage contract and the proof of a party involved.
Li Jianye frowned. He and Li Yueying had carefully planned a plot, but they were thwarted in this way. It was useless to argue with them.
He said, "Well, let's stop arguing about the will and the marriage contract. The deceased is the most important thing. Let's deal with my brother's funeral first."
Then he said to Li Meiyu, "Girl, go in and see your grandpa."
Li Meiyu also knew that it was useless to argue with them, so she walked into the inner room with Qin Haodong and Nalan Wushuang.
There was a crystal coffin in the middle of the inner room. Li Dongguo, the founder of the Li family, was lying in the coffin. The lid of the coffin was open for the convenience of mourning.
On one side of the coffin sat an old man in a green robe. He looked to be around 60 years old. His face was ruddy, and his hair and beard were neatly combed. He had the demeanor of an expert.
Although they walked into the room, the old man didn't respond at all. He just sat there and murmured. It seemed that he was praying for Li Dongguo.
Li Jianye said, "Meiyu, your grandpa is gone. I invited Master Zha to pray for him. I believe that he will definitely go to the Nirvana World."
Qin Haodong couldn't help looking at the old man when he heard that it was Master Zha. There was a faint fluctuation of spiritual power in the old man. It seemed that he was really powerful.
"Grandpa!"
After seeing Li Dongguo, Li Meiyu could no longer suppress the sadness in her heart. She cried out and rushed to him. She held his body and burst into tears.
Originally, he was the only relative she had left in this world. Although the old man had always been strict with her, she knew that her grandfather loved her dearly. Now that even her grandfather had passed away, she was left alone in this world. How could she live in the future?
Li Jianye rushed forward to comfort her. "Girl, don't cry. The dead can't come back to life. Just let your grandfather go in peace."
Qin Haodong looked away from Master Zha and turned to Li Dongguo in the coffin. His expression changed slightly.
Seeing that Li Meiyu was crying too sadly, he stepped forward and comforted her, "Well, don't cry. It's not a good time to cry."
After that, he pulled Li Meiyu up and then seemed to unintentionally straighten Old Master Li's body. He reached his hand behind his head and straightened it.
Li Meiyu stopped crying and said, "I want to stay here to keep vigil for grandpa."
Li Yueying said, "That's right. Your grandpa has loved you for so many years."
As he said that, a skinny monk walked in from outside. He looked to be in his thirties or forties and wore a purplish-red monk robe. He was clearly a monk, but his body faintly exuded a gloomy aura.
"Master, you're here."
Li Yueying greeted him with a happy face. She turned around and introduced the monk to Li Meiyu. "This is Master Sarah Banta from Thailand. He was a good friend of your grandpa when he was alive. He's here to help your grandpa."
Li Meiyu said respectfully when she heard that he was a master from Thailand, "Thank you, master."
Li Yueying said again, "Master Sarah Banta is an eminent monk and a disciple of Thailand's Master Songgang. He's very powerful. I'm sure he'll help you."
Sarah Banta said something in Thai that no one could understand. Then, he knelt on the futon in front of the coffin and began to pray.
The scripture he recited was very strange. It sounded like he was crying, but it also sounded like Buddhist chanting. Coupled with the dim light in front of the mourning hall, it sounded eerie, as if all the hair on one's body was standing on end.
Master Zha opened his eyes gently and glanced at them. Then, he closed his eyes again and continued to read his Taoist scripture.
Li Meiyu also found a futon and knelt down to keep vigil. Qin Haodong and Nalan Wushuang stood behind her. Of course, they would not leave at this time.
As Sarah Banta began to recite the scripture, Li Meiyu suddenly felt a little dizzy. Her eyelids became heavier and her eyes became more and more dull. She seemed to be losing consciousness.
Qin Haodong immediately noticed her abnormality and looked at Sarah Banta. The monk's voice was similar to Xiao Luochen's Magic Sound Mind Control. They were both ways to attack people's minds through sound.
Obviously, this monk was Li Yueying's killing move. If it went on like this, Li Meiyu would unknowingly become a fool or even directly explode and die.
He took half a step forward and put his palm on Li Meiyu's back. His Genuine Qi came out of his body and formed an Air Shield in front of Li Meiyu, blocking the chanting sound like a shield.
After blocking Sarah Banta's attack, Li Meiyu immediately became sober. She shook her head gently and did not realize anything. She thought that she was just too sleepy.
Qin Haodong was not a person who would only defend without fighting back. He began to recite the Silent Incantation and attacked Sarah Banta.
Sarah Banta's dim eyes lit up and his voice suddenly became several times louder. He began to fight against Qin Haodong's incantation with his own voice.
But no matter how loud his voice was, it was still gradually suppressed by Qin Haodong.
After a while, panic flashed in Sarah Banta's eyes and sweat began to drip from his forehead. In the end, there was even a thin layer of smoke rising from his forehead. In the eyes of others, this monk was too hard to recite the incantation.
In fact, his heart was already full of fear. Even though he had used all his cultivation and had even overloaded it, he still could not resist Qin Haodong's Silent Incantation.
Moreover, this kind of direct attack on the soul made it impossible for him to retreat. He could only fight to the end. At this time, he knew that he had met a master and had no choice but to fight to the death.
He flicked his right hand and a faint red light shot toward Qin Haodong. It was dark in the mourning hall, so no one noticed it at all.
Scanning with his Spirit, Qin Haodong saw the red light clearly. It was a poisonous needle with broken poison.
He sneered and flicked out a sharp gust of wind. The poisonous needle immediately changed its direction and shot toward Sarah Banta at a faster speed, directly into the mouth of Sarah Banta, who was chanting sutras.
At the same time, the Silent Incantation broke out. Sarah Banta's mind was like a thunderclap, directly shattering his soul.
Originally, this poisonous needle was refined by him and the poison on the needle could be neutralized. But at this time, he had been shocked into an idiot by the Silent Incantation and could not even save himself. He could only reap what he had sown and die of the poison on the needle.
Sarah Banta died. At the same time, the scripture in his mouth stopped abruptly.
Li Yueying was waiting not far away. She had invited Sarah Banta to turn Li Meiyu into an idiot so that she could get the Li family's property.
But after waiting for a long time, Li Meiyu still looked hale and hearty and did not look like an idiot at all. Just when she was impatient, Sarah Banta stopped chanting, which made her even more confused.
At first, she thought that the monk was just tired and wanted to take a rest, but there was still no movement.
Later, she lost her patience. She patted Sarah Banta on the shoulder and said, "Master, have you finished chanting?"
To her surprise, Sarah Banta fell to the ground with a bang. His face was pale and he was no longer breathing.
"Ah …"
Li Yueying had never expected that the monk was already dead. She jumped up in fright and hurriedly cried, "He's dead! He's dead! "
Hearing her cry, everyone gathered around. Li Jianye said, "What's going on? He was fine just now. How did he suddenly die? "
Li Yueying said with a pale face, "I don't know. I saw that the master stopped chanting just now, so I went to have a look. I didn't expect that he was already dead."
Qin Haodong said jokingly, "Didn't you say that he was a good friend of the old master? Maybe the old master felt lonely over there, so he asked him to go with him. "
"You …"
Li Yueying knew that Qin Haodong was mocking her, but she could not find a suitable reason. She could only say to Wu Zixiong bitterly, "Arrange someone to send the master back to Thailand immediately."
Wu Zixiong waved his hand and several bodyguards immediately came over and carried Sarah Banta's body out of the mourning hall.
At this moment, Master Zha, who was sitting next to the coffin of the old master, slowly stood up from the ground.
Li Jianye hurriedly went over and said respectfully, "Master Zha, you've finished."
Master Zha said, "Although I'm a layman, I practice Taoist magic arts. I've just recited the Supreme Karmic Salvation Sutra 49 times. I believe that my old friend will definitely go to the Nirvana World."
"Thank you so much, Master Zha!"
Li Jianye thanked him again and again.
Li Yueying said, "Master Zha, just now, Master Sarah Banta died when he was performing Taoism for my brother. What happened? Do you know? "
Master Zha said, "My old friend started from scratch and built such a big family business on his own. He was a man of great fortune.
To help an old friend transcend, one must have sufficient attainment. The monk you mentioned just now is still a little lacking in attainment. Not only did he fail to transcend, he even sent himself on the path to the west. What a pity, what a pity! "
Although he said it was a pity, his face was full of pride. The implication was that his Taoism skills were much higher than Sarah Banta's.
"I see. Master Zha, you're really good at Taoism."
Li Jianye was very happy. Master Zha was invited by him and Sarah Banta was invited by Li Yueying. It was obvious that he was superior to Li Yueying.
After a pause, he said, "Master Zha, there's one more thing that we need your help with."
