After listening, Yang Cheng pondered for a moment and then asked, "What does 'foreign monk' mean?"
Bei Zhen said from the side, "Your Majesty, in our Yan Kingdom, the Pudu Temple is the most revered Buddhist temple. Other small temples that occasionally exist are not worthy of being mentioned."
However, some of the monks who went to the Youdu Mountains that time were Buddhist monks we had never seen before, and they were also very powerful, so it was a bit strange.
Yang Cheng and Cui Laodao exchanged a glance, both sharing the same guess.
Just then, a burst of Buddhist light suddenly appeared in the distance.
Five monks, their feet radiating golden light, strode across the river and headed straight for Yang Cheng and his companions.
Bei Zhen's expression immediately changed: "Oh no! They're monks from Pudu Temple!"
They must have heard about me and Xiaobai and came specifically to kill us!
In the past, Beizhen and Baijie were very careful. They would only rescue people, then make a brief announcement of their names before immediately disappearing into the Huai River.
Countless underground rivers and tributaries flow beneath the Huai River, and their cave dwellings are among them.
Even if the people of Pudu Temple were skilled in water-based magic, they still wouldn't be able to find it.
However, given how long they had lingered on this island in the middle of the river, the monks of Pudu Temple had probably already noticed them.
The five monks rode the waves, wielding weapons such as staffs and vajras, and landed on the island with imposing force.
The leading monk had a long beard, a dignified appearance, and was surrounded by a radiant aura of Buddhist light, exuding spiritual cultivation.
He looked at Bei Zhen and Bai Jie and said coldly, "You two monsters have been causing trouble on the Huai River for more than just a day or two. You even dare to call yourselves River God Grandpa and White Dragon Fairy. You are simply audacious!"
Now that you've finally given yourself away and we've caught you, why don't you quickly reveal your true colors?
Bai Jie sneered, "Kill or torture us as you please, but don't frame us!"
"We have saved at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, people on this Huai River. On what basis do you accuse us of harming the Huai River?"
The leading monk sneered, "You demon, you dare to argue? If a demon doesn't wreak havoc on the human world, is it still a demon?"
Enough with the nonsense, or I'll beat you to a pulp before I suppress you!
The five monks kept their attention on Beizhen and Bai Jie, completely ignoring Yang Cheng and Old Taoist Cui.
Yang Cheng said casually, “You monks are quite interesting. The people on the shore haven’t recovered from the natural disaster yet, and many of them are seriously injured and on the verge of death. Why don’t you go and save them?”
The wind and waves on the Huai River haven't completely subsided yet, and passing ships may still face risks. Why don't you calm the wind and waves first before doing anything else?"
】
The bearded monk suddenly turned his gaze to Yang Cheng and said coldly, "Killing demons is saving people, and saving people is killing demons!"
"If we don't eliminate the evil, even more people will die!"
"Ridiculous! You wouldn't even save someone who's right next to you, but all you care about is that distant demon?"
Yang Cheng sneered, his tone filled with undisguised sarcasm.
He already had a grudge against Lingshan, and now he also found these monks somewhat displeasing.
Upon hearing this, the bearded monk abruptly stopped wielding his vajra, looked at Yang Cheng and the others, then at Bei Zhen and the two demons Bai Jie, and shouted sternly:
"These people are so close to this monster, and they even speak up for him. They must be his accomplices and scum of humanity!"
Kill them all and send them to the Demon-Suppressing Tower for disposal!
As soon as he finished speaking, the five monks surrounded Yang Cheng.
"court death!"
A murderous glint flashed in Yang Cheng's eyes.
He hates two things the most.
One possibility is that someone fabricated charges against him.
Another scenario is that he frames someone for a crime, and that person still dares to resist.
The bearded monk at the head of the group swung his vajra directly at Yang Cheng's head, unleashing maximum force with brutal ruthlessness, clearly aiming to kill him.
The moment the pestle struck, a burst of Buddhist light erupted, its power momentarily astonishing.
However, the vajra pestle could not fall after hitting halfway down.
The Prison Suppression Barrier rose in front of Yang Cheng, directly resisting the Demon-Subduing Pestle. At the same time, under the golden light, the bearded monk was as if he were being crushed by Mount Tai, and his body could not hold on any longer. He knelt down with a thud.
"you……"
The bearded monk looked at Yang Cheng in disbelief.
The person in front of him was so strong that he could suppress him with just the power he was releasing.
Why didn't he recognize a powerhouse of this level?
Before the bearded monk could react, Yang Cheng's powerful and terrifying aura erupted, merging into the Prison Suppression Barrier, causing his power to surge instantly.
With a loud 'plop', the bearded monk was crushed into a meat pie!
