The hall was inlaid with gold leaf, reflecting the dazzling light. It accentuated the holiness of the white petals and the compassion of Bodhisattva Lian Yu, making her skin look moist and alluring.
Mengqi secretly held the Samsara Talisman in his hand and held it behind his back. His green robe fluttered slightly. His posture was tall and straight, proud and restrained. He looked profound and experienced, not showing the slightest surprise.
He could not casually answer such a question. He was not the real Merciless Tyrant and did not know what had happened in the past. Perhaps Bodhisattva Lian Yu was just tricking him. If he pretended to know her and exchanged pleasantries, he would immediately fall into her trap!
However, if he refused to comment and acted cold, he was afraid that they really knew each other and would arouse suspicion.
Therefore, the most common way to respond at this moment was to be vague. He neither expressed that he knew her nor revealed that he did not know her!
Mengqi took two steps forward with his hands clasped behind his back. He said with a faint smile, "I've always been unfathomable."
Bodhisattva Lian Yu laughed so hard that she was trembling and eye-catching. "Merciless Tyrant, you're still as arrogant as ever. It's a pity that I came and went in a hurry back then. I didn't get to hold your arm and swim with you."
She looked at Mengqi with watery eyes. Greed was hidden deep in her eyes as if she was looking at an elixir.
According to the letter from A Million Hands, even if Merciless Tyrant had not reached the grandmaster realm, he was not far from it. He could break through at any time.
"We didn't hold hands and swim together? "Does that mean we're not related?" Mengqi secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Things would be easy as long as she was not an old lover. However, it made sense. If Merciless Tyrant was an old lover of Bodhisattva Lian Yu, he would have long been plucked to look like the Three-eyed God of Arrow outside the hall. He would not have the ability to offend both the orthodox and evil paths, make enemies of the world, and hide in Bomi.
"I'm afraid I can't enjoy such luck with women." Mengqi's expression was relaxed, displaying the demeanor of an old devil.
Bodhisattva Lian Yu smiled and looked at the two men massaging her feet. "Can you bear not to enjoy such luck with women?"
"Of course not!" It was not just the two men kneeling by her feet. Even the four men beside and behind Bodhisattva Lian Yu spoke in unison. Their expressions were excited and infatuated, as if they had obtained the greatest bliss in the world.
"See, Merciless Tyrant, they don't think so." Bodhisattva Lian Yu sighed. In an instant, she turned from gorgeous to lovely. "You and I are of the same generation. However, I'm afraid that less than one in ten of those who fought with us before you hid in Bomi are still alive."
Twenty years was nothing to the Exterior, but the Heterodox Path was crueler than the Righteous Path. They were suppressed, betrayed and killed their friends, and robbed of their treasures. Thus, they were unable to accumulate the advantage of the number of Exterior masters. Therefore, twenty years was enough for a batch of Exterior masters to fall. Of course, there was no way that less than ten percent of them would survive. Bodhisattva Lian Yu was referring to "living well". Those who could not break through to the next realm, were at the bottom of the Exterior, and could only bully newcomers who had enlightened their Apertures. Clearly, it was not "living well".
"Master of of." Yu of. and Exterior. of. and. Saint... and, Lian. of him, and, he. him. and. and of Yun would not. he. and, he, he and of of of of he, he, he, he..
"So what? The world is full of hardships. If I'm not strong enough, I might as well free myself." Mengqi deliberately used a compassionate attitude to speak coldly.
Bodhisattva Lian Yu chuckled. The hall brightened. "Merciless Tyrant said you used Dharma to mend your Devil Foundation. I didn't believe it at first, but now I know it's true. This is similar to my Blissful Joy lineage. We seek Buddha from Devil, but you turn Buddha into Devil. We complement each other."
When she mentioned "complementing", she suddenly blinked her eyes. Her occasional mischievousness made her look even more charming than her pity and seduction.
Mengqi felt like he was listening to a dirty joke in his previous life. He suppressed the ripples in his heart and said with a smile, "Be it Buddha or Devil, it's all about seeking the Tao in one's heart. In short, Li Wending's path is not mine."
"You're really enlightened?" Bodhisattva Lian Yu was slightly stunned. Soon, her expression became compassionate again. "Do you think Li Wending is pitiful?"
"Over the past 20 years, there have been countless Exterior experts who have fallen. Some died in the battle between good and evil. Some died because of greed. They didn't know when to stop when they were ahead and were robbed of their treasures. There were also those who were caught in the battle between masters and died inexplicably. As for Qi-deviancy Derangement, it's even more common. Death can happen at any time."
"Even those who are still alive are mostly filled with pain. They worry about the source of exotic minerals and produce, worry about being hunted by their enemies, suffer from the stagnation of their cultivation, envy those who will surpass them, fear that they'll grow old, and feel uneasy."
"The Devil is merciful. The world is full of bitterness and all things are illusory. It's better to destroy them," Mengqi replied simply.
A holy and compassionate glow appeared on Bodhisattva Lian Yu's face. "That's right. The world is full of bitterness and all things are unreal. Most people lead dull and repetitive lives, suffering from illnesses from time to time, the sorrow of parting, the oppression of parents who don't understand them, the discrimination and bullying of others, and the anxiety of not being able to love. They can only occasionally grasp a trace of happiness until their lifespans end and they turn into bones. Since it's such a difficult struggle, why not let go of everything else and enjoy the bliss?"
"I give them bodies so that they can enjoy the bliss of physical intercourse between a man and a woman. They can forget their sorrows and immerse themselves in it until death comes and they pass away peacefully. Compared to you, who has racked your brains and risked your life but may not succeed, you have more worries and pain than happiness. Do you still think Li Wending is pitiful?"
"She's really good at talking nonsense …" Considering that he was also an evil spirit, Mengqi could not be bothered to argue. He just smiled and said, "You're not a fish, so how can you know the joys of fish?"
"Is that so?" Bodhisattva Lian Yu's glittering eyes were covered with a layer of moisture. "But you've never experienced the bliss of physical intercourse and spiritual intercourse. How can you know that it's not what you need?"
At this point, she chuckled and changed the topic. "I've always wanted to spar with you, but my wish never came true. Now that we've finally met, how can I not fulfill my long-cherished wish?"
"I'm the host and you're the guest. It's not convenient for us to spar, lest you misunderstand that we're going back on our word and want to forcefully pluck you. How about this? I'll show you the 'Bodhisattva Form of Lian Yu' I've condensed so that you don't know anything about bliss. Also, let's see if I can provoke you into revealing your Dharma Form."
She did not give Mengqi a chance to answer. She sat cross-legged in a rather impatient manner. White petals flew up around her and sprinkled down.
Not forcefully plucking was mainly a matter of ability, but it did not mean that she could not tempt Merciless Tyrant into doing it "willingly". If she could pluck an "elixir" of a grandmaster or close to grandmaster, she could immediately break through her years of predicament and become a grandmaster!
She had said so much just to mess up Merciless Tyrant's intentions and shake his faith!
Bodhisattva Lian Yu's body glowed with a clear light. A Bodhisattva statue materialized behind her. She wore a pure and holy white dress and held a lotus in her right hand. Her features bore some resemblance to Lian Yu's, but she was purer and more compassionate. Her dress was half-exposed, revealing her chest. Her skin seemed to be interwoven with Dharma and Logos. It was extremely alluring. At the same time, her delicate mouth was slightly parted and her left hand was placed on her chest as if she was about to undress.
It was an extremely tempting scene. The contradictory feelings of holiness and charm of the Bodhisattva strangely merged into one. It exuded an indescribable charm and directly "imprinted" on Mengqi's Vital Spirit!
White petals fluttered in the air, and a faint red mist pervaded the air. Soft moans drifted through the air.
"Thump, thump, thump!" Mengqi found his heart beating like a drum. His blood was boiling and his breathing was heavy. He could not control himself.
This allure, which seemed to follow the laws of heaven and earth, was simply irresistible. It was as if she was the embodiment of a man and a woman having sex, the manifestation of their inner desires!
"Thump, thump, thump!" The men in the hall half-knelt on the ground. Their expressions were crazy and infatuated. They wanted peace and quiet, but they were also afraid of tainting their holiness.
"Thump, thump, thump!" Mengqi struggled to hold on. He activated the heart sutras of the Ananda Oath-breaking Blade, forcibly restraining his thoughts and maintaining a trace of peace.
At the same time, the Primal Aperture at his mid-brows became dim. There was no up, no down, no front, no back, and no back. The Indestructible Primeval Form appeared within him to resist the influence of the inexplicable Dharma and Logos.
Both of them gave Mengqi a chance. He immediately visualized the Gist of Trueness of The Buddha's Palm in the depths of his Vital Spirit. A golden Buddha appeared above the sea of his soul. With one hand pointing to the sky and the other pointing to the ground, a sonorous voice came from his mouth.
"In the heavens and under the earth, I am the only one!"
The Buddha's voice was like thunder. "I" overrode all kinds of desires and merged with the Indestructible Primordial Spirit, subduing all kinds of desires.
His blood flow slowed, his heartbeat calmed, and his breathing became long and deep. Mengqi had already shaken off the influence of the interweaving Dharma and Logos. He sensed his surroundings and discovered that the two women, Ying Ning and Le Huan, were also attracted. Their faces were flushed and they kept moaning. Bodhisattva Lian Yu had not noticed that Mengqi's eyes were clear and she was still operating the Dharma Form.
Mengqi was about to laugh and leave with his hands behind his back, displaying the demeanor of a heterodox authority. Suddenly, he had a better idea. Didn't he obtain a drop of the Devil Saint's Blood? He could use this opportunity to shock them and let them know that his Dharma could strengthen his Devil Foundation!
The purplish-green blood fell from the Space Ring into Mengqi's palm. The evil aura of devouring surged into his body from his palm and merged with the aura of the Golden Buddha simulated by the Eight Nine Mysteries.
Bodhisattva Lian Yu fully displayed her Dharma Form and was about to give it her all when she suddenly felt the evil Devil Qi overflowing into the sky. It was so oppressive that it made her heart tremble. It was filled with the evil aura of devouring, destruction, and depravity. However, it was also a combination of Zen and compassionate Buddha Will. It was a mixture of indifference and coldness that overlooked the mortal world!
Inside the main hall, the Buddha's Light was dyed black and the Devil Qi was tumbling. Vicissitudes of evil thoughts filled the void as if a real evil spirit was about to appear in the world. Mengqi stood with his hands behind his back, looking like a Buddha or a god!
Lian Yu's gaze froze and her heart was in turmoil. The Bodhisattva image behind her swayed slightly.
"Merciless Tyrant has really become a heterodox authority!
I can't even force his Dharma Form out! "
"Lian Yu, do you still want to display it?" Mengqi asked with a faint smile.
Everyone in the main hall snapped out of their daze. They looked at Mengqi as if they were looking at a real Devil Monarch!
Bodhisattva Lian Yu smiled and retracted her Dharma Form. She did not show any sign of being frustrated. "Merciless Tyrant, you're no longer a Devil Monarch. You have the strength to rank on the Black List. I'm no match for you. I'll take a break for today and report to Sect Leader Bodhisattva.
"Tomorrow?" Mengqi's heart tightened. "Do I have to make Merciless Tyrant disappear tonight? I have to change my identity and hide on the island, waiting for an opportunity to become a male disciple who has the opportunity to come into contact with the Invincible Blade."
"But what identity should I change into?"
After bidding farewell to Bodhisattva Lian Yu, Le Huan led Mengqi and Ying Ning to the guest house.
Along the way, Mengqi discovered that there were many spirit beasts raised in captivity. They fed on wild animals. If he transformed into a mouse, he would have to guard against their attacks. He would be exposed if he was not careful. As for insects and other small creatures, he would only appear when the number of Evil Qi in the earth changed.
"What should I transform into?
What excuse can I use to make Merciless Tyrant disappear without arousing suspicion and searching the entire island?
