"Songmei Demon Goddess, it's been a long time," Ye Ran said calmly, her voice undisturbed.
The succubus Yongmei froze, an expression of disbelief appearing on her exquisite face, a hint of fear flashing in her beautiful eyes.
Staring intently at the god-like boy before her, memories flooded back like a tidal wave.
"Impossible!" she exclaimed in shock. "You...you're clearly not even at the diamond level, how could you..."
Ye Ran did not answer her question, but simply waved his hand casually.
A flash of cold light appeared, tearing through the void in an instant.
The Demon Goddess of Beauty didn't even have time to let out a scream; her beautiful face was frozen in disbelief.
His body fell silently, and he died on the spot.
Ye Ran slowly walked towards the bound bald old man, clicking his tongue in admiration:
"This succubus lord has some truly peculiar tastes, choosing someone this old to play rope bondage with..."
at this time,
The bald old man was tightly bound in a tortoise-shell style, in a rather shameful posture.
But his expression remained calm, his eyes showing no fear, filled with a transcendent, Buddhist-like quality...
A flash of cold light, and the ropes binding the old man snapped.
The old man stretched his slightly stiff arms, clasped his hands together, and calmly said:
"This humble monk, Longdan, thanks you all."
"No need for thanks," Ye Ran cut straight to the point, his eyes sharp as knives, "What these demon gods have always wanted is in your hands, isn't it...?"
The monk Longdan's gaze was deep, his eyes scrutinizing and wary as he looked at Ye Ran.
"You want this too?"
He shook his head, his tone frank and resolute, "I can't give you the thing. You might as well kill this humble monk..."
Faced with the old man's calm acceptance of death, Ye Ran was not angry at all; instead, he clapped his hands in admiration.
"The leader of Theravada Buddhism is indeed a tough nut to crack, much stronger than that so-called Master Longmu."
These words struck like a thunderbolt, shattering the calm expression on Monk Longdan's face. His eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "You know Master Longmu?"
“It’s more than just knowing them,” Ye Ran said calmly. “If they hadn’t rescued us in time, Mahayana Buddhism would be a paradise for demons and gods by now.”
The monk Longdan's expression became complicated as he scrutinized Ye Ran.
"Don't believe me?" Ye Ran seemed to see through the old man's thoughts and calmly said, "Then you must believe this, right?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his palm, and energy surged within it, conjuring up a seed that emitted a mysterious light.
Although those seeds are composed of energy, the aura they emit is incredibly real.
"The Seed of the World!" Monk Longdan exclaimed in shock, his eyes wide with astonishment.
The old man instinctively reached out to examine it, but Ye Ran quickly withdrew the seed and said calmly, "This thing is for looking at, not touching. Since you recognized it, now you should believe me..."
Monk Longdan frowned, still harboring doubts:
"How do you know you didn't kill someone to steal this?"
Ye Ran narrowed his eyes: "Do you think the World Seed would so easily follow a villain? Are you overestimating yourself, or underestimating this seed...?"
Hearing Ye Ran say this, Long Dan was speechless.
"Let's not talk about that for now..." Ye Ran suddenly interrupted Long Dan's thoughts.
Then, Ye Ran circled around Long Dan several times, staring at Master Long Dan's face in disbelief.
Unsure, he looked down at the dragon pill several more times.
Feeling uneasy under Ye Ran's gaze, Long Dan couldn't help but ask, "Benefactor, what is the reason for this...?"
Ye Ran looked at Long Dan with a smile:
"You...broke the rule??"
"Pfft!!" Wang Xianghe, who was watching the show from the sidelines, couldn't help but spit out his drink when he heard Ye Ran's words.
He hurriedly and awkwardly turned his head to look at the distant scenery, muttering to himself:
"Tsk...why are the birds flying so fast today..."
The dragon pill, which was exposed by Ye Ran's words,
Shocked and ashamed, I was speechless for a moment.
Instead, Ye Ran nodded with an understanding look:
"Master, there's no need to blame yourself. You've spent so much time with the Succubus Queen and managed to stay true to yourself; that's already quite good. As for this kind of problem, it's just human nature..."
Hearing Ye Ran's words of comfort, Long Dan blushed.
But in the end, he held back, put his hands together, and sighed.
"Amitabha......"
"Stop chanting Amitabha." Ye Ran waved his hand, then looked at Long Dan and said.
"As far as I know, Theravada Buddhism emphasizes self-cultivation. In your current state, are you no longer qualified to sit in the position of the leader of Theravada Buddhism?"
"puff......"
After being hit by Ye Ran's repeated blows,
Long Dan could no longer hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.
My vision blurred and I sat down on the ground.
"Tsk... Amitabha..." Ye Ran looked at Long Dan's appearance and silently recited the Buddhist chant.
Long Dan, who had recovered, sighed and said:
“What you say is true. I am not qualified to be the head of Theravada Buddhism. After a while, I will naturally step down and give way to a more worthy person…”
Ye Ran waved his hand at Long Dan: "Don't you think it's a pity?"
Long Dan looked at Ye Ran, then paused, "Benefactor, what is the meaning of this?"
Ye Ran further explained, "I remember that Theravada Buddhism also has many different schools and sects. If you step down like this, what will happen to your school? Are you responsible for them?"
Hearing Ye Ran's words, Long Dan shook his head:
"The position of leader in Theravada Buddhism naturally belongs to the virtuous; if our school fails to be elected, it is simply fate..."
"Master, you are virtuous, but I fear that other schools of Theravada Buddhism will not remember your contributions to Theravada Buddhism..."
Ye Ran shook his head, then said to Long Dan,
“I have a way to resolve this predicament and allow the master to have the best of both worlds.”
Hearing Ye Ran's words, Long Dan's expression finally softened: "Benefactor, please speak..."
Ye Ran looked at Long Dan with a smile.
There's nothing in this world that can't be discussed. If things didn't work out, it just means the offer didn't resonate with the other person's interests...
Ye Ran snapped his fingers.
The space rippled.
Duobao and Qin Guangxiao reappeared beside Ye Ran.
When Long Dan first saw Qin Guangxiao...
Then he said seriously to Ye Ran:
"make a deal......"
