Having said that, he didn't wait for Liang Yihan's reply and moved to walk past him and leave.
Liang Yihan raised his voice and said, "Shi Chan, I've come to see you today about the nine-tailed fox. Would you be interested in hearing about it?"
Zen Master stopped abruptly and asked in confusion, "What is it?"
Liang Yihan sighed softly and said, "It concerns the Nine-Tailed Fox, and it also concerns the life and death of our righteous path."
Shi Chan became increasingly hesitant. He looked at Liang Yihan with a hint of wariness and asked, "May I ask, Fellow Daoist Liang, what is the matter?"
Liang Yihan looked at Shi Chan with a heavy gaze and said, "Now that things have come to this, I will not hide it from you anymore, Shi Chan. You should still remember the day we fought together for the Imperial Seal of the Realm. Later, my friend Xuan Yuanhao obtained the Imperial Seal of the Realm. In order to make him secure his throne, I did not take the seal away."
"After that, the nine-tailed fox Liuli was born and took the jade seal from Haozi. I once plotted to steal back the divine stone that was used to make the jade seal, but I did not succeed."
“Shi Chan, do you remember that time when the Nine-Tailed Fox plotted to ambush me and tried to frame your Buddhist disciples for my death? It was on that occasion that the fox refined the divine stone in front of me. I saw with my own eyes that the divine stone was refined into a seven-colored bead, and then the Xuanyuan Sword shone brightly.”
"That was the only time the Xuanyuan Sword showed any unusual activity. After that, there were no more signs of its reappearance. So I guess the key to the Xuanyuan Sword's reappearance lies in the bead formed from that divine stone, and that bead is in the hands of the Nine-Tailed Fox, Liuli!"
Liang Yihan spoke earnestly and helplessly, saying, "Nowadays, that fox is always accompanied by more than a thousand divine beasts. It is not easy to snatch the bead formed from the divine stone. I am also afraid that she will destroy the bead when I try to take it by force, resulting in a mutual destruction. I have no choice but to beg you, Shi Chan."
"You should also know that under the current circumstances, if the Xuanyuan Sword does not emerge, our righteous path will undoubtedly be defeated. At that time, the vast Central Plains will fall into the hands of the demon race, and the people of the Central Plains will suffer greatly and be filled with unspeakable misery! Demonic arts will then spread throughout the Central Plains, poisoning everyone!"
"Therefore, Shi Chan, I would like to ask you to retrieve the bead that the divine stone has transformed from from that fox's hand. We should try to bring the Xuanyuan Sword out of the world, for only the Xuanyuan Sword can withstand the spirits within the Chiyou Banner!"
After listening quietly to Liang Yihan finish speaking, Shi Chan asked in surprise, "Is there really such a thing?"
Liang Yihan looked deeply at Shi Chan and said earnestly, "Shi Chan, I know that fox likes you, and you like her too. You are so devoted to Buddha, didn't you leave the monastic life for her? So now this matter can only be done by you. Only you can save the righteous path of the Central Plains and all living beings!"
After pondering for a long time, Shi Chan nodded and said, "If that is the case, I will ask Liuli to give the bead formed from the divine stone to our righteous disciples."
"Alright." A smile appeared on Liang Yihan's face. He said with a smile, "You're going to find that fox, right? I've already sent my disciples to find her whereabouts. I'll take you with me."
Shi Chan replied, "Very well, then please lead the way, Fellow Daoist Liang."
Liang Yihan nodded with a smile, then turned and flew away into the distance, with Shi Chan following closely behind.
