"Namo Amitabha!" A Buddha's name rose slowly. It was calm and peaceful, and the worshippers made way for it.
A grey-robed old monk slowly walked over, followed by six young monks. They were full of energy and spirit, and their eyes flashed so brightly that no one dared to look at them directly.
The grey-robed old monk was tall and thin, and his snow-white eyebrows drooped to the corner of his eyes. They were long and bright, just like the God of Longevity. His face was kind and gentle, and he looked very amiable.
He slowly walked to Chu Li, pressed his palms together, and said calmly, "Almsgivers, you're too kind."
Chu Li pressed his palms together and smiled. "Are you a disciple of the Reincarnation Temple?"
"I'm a disciple of the Reincarnation Temple." The old monk pressed his palms together and nodded. "May I know why you're here?"
Chu Li said, "I'm sorry, your temple sneaked an attack on our four sects, and killed thirty people from our branch. None of them survived. As a Priest of the Holy Church of Light, I had no choice but to offend you."
"The Holy Church of Light?" The old monk looked at the two calmly, as if he was compassionate.
Chu Li smiled. "The Holy Church of Light has always been compassionate, unlike your temple. You say that you're compassionate, but your actions are more vicious than anyone else's. Don't worry, monk, I won't kill you. I'll only cripple your martial arts. I'll start with the people next to me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for the six monks behind the old monk to speak, he swung his arms, and six energy blades slashed across.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!" The six monks flew out at the same time. They widened their eyes in the air and stared at Chu Li, unwilling to give up. They landed heavily on the courtyard wall, and slid down softly, lying at the foot of the wall, unable to move.
They were holding their Dantian in their lower abdomen, and their breaths were weak.
Chu Li's six blades had accurately struck their Dantian, and directly destroyed their cultivation. It would be difficult for them to cultivate again. The energy blades had directly destroyed their meridians, and it would not be easy to repair them.
Chu Li calmly glanced at the six people, and then at the surrounding worshippers who were as silent as cicadas. Finally, his gaze fell on the old monk, and he smiled. "Do you have anything to say, monk?"
"Namo Amitabha!" The old monk's snow-white eyebrows moved slightly. He chanted the name of Buddha and sighed, "Benefactor, you are too unreasonable. Even if our temple has offended you, why don't you find the person who offended you? Why must you vent your anger on other innocent people?"
Chu Li laughed out loud. "You should be asking the dead disciples of our branch instead. What crime did they commit? When did they offend Monk Zhi Shan of the Reincarnation Temple?"
"Since you are so extreme, I can only offend you!" The old monk shook his head and sighed. He raised his voice and said, "Where are the Dharma protectors!"
"Here!" Amidst the thunderous bellows, ten middle-aged monks dressed in gray monk robes descended from the sky. They swept past the pilgrims and nodded. This is a greeting to the Reincarnation Temple. I, Zhao Dahe, have always done things this way. If I kill thirty of our people, the Reincarnation Temple will lose sixty or even ninety of their people. This is how I do things! "
As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared in a flash. The next moment, he appeared in a basilica and shot out his Light Blade. Before the monks who were sitting on cattail hassocks could react, the flying blades had already landed on their bodies and destroyed their cultivation levels one by one.
Then, he appeared in a few houses again and destroyed all of them regardless of their cultivation levels.
In the blink of an eye, the huge Jiren Temple had been completely destroyed by him. The white-browed monk in front of him did not know martial arts, so he could not be destroyed.
"So?" Chu Li looked at him with a smile. "Do you have anything to say?"
"I can only advise Almsgiver Zhao that there is no end to the sea of bitterness, but the shore is at the end." The old monk sighed. "Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't live long."
"Haha," Chu Li laughed out loud. "Won't live long? How arrogant. I'd like to see what the Reincarnation Temple is capable of. Farewell! "
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left the Jiren Temple.
The devotees watched them leave with a look of surprise and pity. Such an arrogant guy would not live long. The Reincarnation Temple would definitely kill him. No matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to escape the Reincarnation Temple's pursuit.
Shi Zonggu followed Chu Li out of the Jiren Temple. As they walked on the street, he frowned and asked, "Priest, why didn't you just kill them to avenge the branch disciples?"
His tone was firm and he was very angry.
None of the thirty disciples from the branch survived. Such viciousness was intolerable. Shi Zonggu wanted to kill all the monks in the Jiren Temple. Even if there were more than forty of them, there were only ten Grandmasters among them. Even killing all of them would not be enough to appease his hatred.
Chu Li glanced at him and shook his head. "Yesterday, I've already killed thirty Grandmasters and only Monk Zhi Shan managed to escape. There's no need to kill the rest. Just cripple their martial arts and weaken their strength."
"Priest, didn't you say that you want to take revenge several times over?"
"There are different types of revenge. Killing them directly and crippling their martial arts have different consequences." Chu Li shook his head. "For the sake of the bigger picture, it's best to cripple their martial arts. There's no need to kill them all."
He would not be lenient to those who came to kill him. He would kill those who came to him on their own. However, he would not be so ruthless to those who came to him personally. It was enough to cripple their martial arts and eliminate the threat.
"I didn't expect the Priest to be so benevolent!" Shi Zonggu scoffed.
Chu Li gave him a sidelong glance.
Shi Zonggu shuddered and had goosebumps all over his body. Only then did he remember that Chu Li's methods were extremely ruthless. When he was still a Branch Leader, he had dared to kill an Altar Leader. Shi Zonggu coughed softly and averted his gaze, not daring to meet his eyes.
Chu Li scoffed. "Next, the branch of Hai Cang Mountain!"
