The little Pixiu, Ling An, cried so hard her body convulsed, her big, watery eyes looking at Ling Yun:
"Father, will Aunt come back?"
Although Ling An is young, he knows everything.
Ling Yun gently rubbed Ling An's head and said softly:
Yes, it will!
...
A month later, the ancient imperial city was filled with the faint sound of Buddhist chants and the radiance of Buddhist light.
Countless cultivators from ancient civilizations gathered in the city's central square.
Countless cultivators of various races, densely packed together, gazed devoutly at the high platform.
They each had a string of prayer beads in their hands, which were made to echo the idea that Guyuetang was a Buddhist bodhisattva.
This pilgrimage was undoubtedly grand, the largest ever.
Ling Yun and his group watched this scene coldly from afar, knowing that all causes and effects would be resolved today.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The three tolling bells rang out, and the grand pilgrimage ceremony officially began.
"My lord is invincible!"
"My lord, your lord will live forever!"
"My lord is immortal!"
"..."
Everyone shouted in unison, their voices filled with utmost sincerity.
Furukawa stepped out from the spatial portal behind the platform, looked around at everyone, and his face was filled with excitement.
"I now declare the pilgrimage ceremony officially open! Welcome, Lord! Welcome, Abbot Huang!"
The next moment, Gu Yuetang and Huang Ling'er walked out of the spatial gate side by side, followed by the high-ranking members of the ancient civilization.
They smiled compassionately as they watched the monks who were making their pilgrimage.
"Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Abbot Huang!"
All the monks bowed deeply in unison.
Gu Yuetang nodded slightly and smiled:
"This pilgrimage is the largest in history, and it is to welcome the great Buddha in golden form."
From this day forward, our ancient civilization will take refuge in Buddhism and strive to spread the Dharma and save all sentient beings.
"My lord is wise!"
Everyone showered him with compliments, creating a powerful and resounding noise that shook the house.
Immediately, Gu Yuetang whispered to Huang Ling'er:
When will the Golden-Bodied Tathagata arrive?
He was somewhat impatient to be crowned with the status of a Bodhisattva.
However, Huang Ling'er smiled slightly and stared at the direction that Gu Yuetang was pointing in, towards the Golden Lion Temple.
Gu Yuetang frowned, not knowing why, but felt a jolt in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.
The next moment!
Hundreds of earth-shattering sword cries resounded from the Golden Lion Temple.
Immediately afterwards, 709 sword cultivators, led by Huang Chang, arrived on their swords.
The sword light slashed through the sky.
Seeing this, Gu Yuetang's face darkened considerably, and he questioned in a deep voice:
"What does Abbot Huang mean by this?!"
Huang Ling'er smiled but didn't say anything, silently stepping aside.
Huang Shang, along with all of Lin Muyao's disciples, stood proudly in the sky.
The next moment!
Huang Shang pointed his sword at Gu Yue Hall and shouted sharply:
"Gu Yue Tang, as Lin Muyao's chief disciple, I ask you: Was Lin Muyao truly guilty back then?!"
boom!
These words resounded like a thunderclap in everyone's ears.
All the monks looked at each other, realizing that this pilgrimage was extraordinary and that something momentous was likely to happen.
"Lin Muyao's first disciple? Lin Jiandi is still alive!"
"This fairy's talent is only in her early twenties, which means she is the disciple recently taken in by Emperor Lin Jian. Emperor Lin Jian is indeed alive!"
"That's wonderful! How could someone as great as Emperor Lin Jiandi possibly die!"
"..."
The cultivators below the stage were filled with fervor. Some people can be slandered and defamed, but they cannot be erased from everyone's hearts.
Gu Yuetang's face darkened to a ferocious expression. He suddenly looked at Huang Ling'er, pointed at her, and roared:
You schemed against me!
Huang Ling'er dropped all pretense, flicked her sleeve, pointed at Gu Yue Hall, and said sternly:
"Fifteen hundred years ago, the ten Great Emperors of the Demon Cloud Kingdom led hundreds of billions of cultivators to invade the ancient civilization."
At that time, your failure to ascend to the Immortal Realm shook your foundation of cultivation, rendering you powerless to lead the ancient civilization in resistance.
Lin Muyao fought alone against ten Great Emperors of the Demon Cloud Civilization, and only won after her own Great Dao was damaged.
And you, fearing that Lin Jiandi, whose prestige has reached its peak, will replace you as the master of the ancient civilization, have joined forces with Gu Chuan and other high-ranking officials to besiege and kill Lin Jiandi.
If it weren't for the Primordial Sacred Flame and the Netherworld Purple Flame protecting their master, Emperor Lin Jian would have almost died at your hands.
Afterwards, in order to find Lin Jiandi, you did not hesitate to kill hundreds of billions of sects and families related to Lin Jiandi.
Billions of people in the ancient city sought justice for Emperor Lin Jian, but you massacred the entire city; countless lives in the Blue Domain were wiped out by you.
The villagers who raised Lin Jiandi were burned alive by you.
You cruelly dug up the graves of Lin Jiandi's parents and smashed their remains to dust in your rage.
"Gu Yuetang, you are a hypocrite, a sanctimonious man with a narrow mind!"
Huang Ling'er's words were like knives, piercing Gu Yuetang's heart and making him increasingly irritable, his face contorted with rage.
"Over the years, you have frequently held pilgrimage conferences to extract the essence of cultivation from ancient civilization cultivators, causing great cultivators to be unable to break through their cultivation realms for a long time."
You don't want another Lin Muyao to appear, and you don't want anyone to replace your position.
You established the Youwei Guard to silence public opinion. Whenever Lin Muyao is mentioned, or whenever anyone says anything bad about your Guyue Hall, the Youwei Guard will kill her.
Under your oppressive rule, the ancient civilization of the cultivation world has regressed by hundreds of thousands of years.
You are the unforgivable sinner!
Your actions are outrageous and beyond description!
Huang Ling'er was already in tears as she spoke, feeling indignant for Lin Muyao and for the injustice done to the cultivators of the ancient civilization.
Her words stirred up the resentment that the cultivators below the stage had suppressed for thousands of years.
"Gu Yuetang, you are a hypocrite, a ruthless butcher! A greedy, narrow-minded, selfish scoundrel!"
