"A lot of the hostility in you has been dispelled."
Wen Xi couldn't help but feel a little surprised at Foyuan, "Okay, it's best if you volunteer to go to the underworld. I'll let Bai Yi lead you into the underworld."
Liu Xing said, "Amitabha, everything is at your disposal. But before I leave, I want to say my final goodbye to Abbot Liu Yun."
The faint glow on Liuyun's body began to fade, and his already fragile soul began to break into pieces, dissipating into the world.
Liu Xing's ferocious eyes revealed reluctance and regret. He whispered, "If it weren't for me, you might have already ascended to immortality, instead of ending up like this. Senior Brother Liuyun, no wonder Master insisted on giving you the position of abbot. Now that I look closely, I truly cannot reach your level of attainment. Senior Brother... I'm sorry, it's me who harmed you. Whether in life or death, it's all me who harmed you."
Liuyun finally smiled. "Junior Brother Liuxing, the last thing Master told me before he died was to take good care of you and Wuyuan Temple. Now I have done it. My obsession has faded. Also... I have never blamed you. Goodbye..."
Along with the fragmented light, Liuyun completely lost his soul and disappeared from the world.
Liu Xing had tears in his eyes and mixed feelings in his heart.
Bai Yi arrived soon and used chains to detain all the evil spirits and take them back to the underworld.
When Wen Chenxi, Ma Yingbei and others arrived, only the evil god's body was left struggling to death on the ground.
"Xiao Xi, are you okay?"
Wen Chenxi saw the fake Liuyun's corpse on the ground and frowned, "He's dead too? And this evil god, was he killed? Can we lift the strictest alert now?"
Wen Xi said, "It can be lifted now. It's almost finished."
Ma Yingbei looked at the evil god with disgust, "Master, how should we deal with this evil god?"
Wen Xi pursed her lips and said, "Although I used all my strength to severely injure him, he hasn't disappeared yet. So there is only one truth... and it's the one I least want to see."
Ma Yingbei was confused. "What is it? Master, what are you talking about?"
Before Wen Xi could explain, someone knocked on the door of Wuyuan Temple.
Wen Xi's eyes moved, and a hint of coldness flashed across them. She walked straight to the door. The knocking outside was getting louder and louder, as if the door was about to be smashed down.
Ma Yingbei followed closely behind, looking puzzled. "What's going on? Who would come to Wuyuan Temple so late at night?"
Wen Xi said, "Ma Yingbei, open the door."
"Okay, Master!"
Ma Yingbei obediently opened the door, and what he saw were a bunch of ferocious faces, which scared him a lot.
Ma Yingbei asked cautiously, "Who are you?"
The ferocious man said gloomily, "We should be the ones asking you this. Who are you? Why was the person who opened the door a stranger? Where is Elder Liuxing? Where is Abbot Liuyun? What did you do to them? This is a sacred area of the temple. If you dare to do anything that harms the world, we will not let you go."
"Yes, yes, yes! Hand over Elder Liuxing and Abbot Liuyun immediately!"
"Hand it over quickly and get out of Wuyuan Temple. Don't pollute this pure land!"
“…”
A group of people held flashlights in their hands and shone them at Wen Xi and the others. No matter whether they were men or women, young or old, they all had unfriendly expressions.
"These people...are they villagers from Xiangyun Town?"
Wen Chenxi looked at each of their faces and found that these people were the residents living in Xiangyun Town when he passed by.
When they first met, he greeted him with a bit of enthusiasm, which was completely different from his current fierce look.
Xiao Shaoyan tore off the tattered sleeve of his injured arm and looked at them coldly, "I finally understand why Wen Xi said that before. What she worried about has finally come true."
Ma Yingbei realized belatedly and said, "What do you mean? Could it be that... you're trying to say that these villagers are in cahoots with the evil spirit?"
Wen Chenxi patted his shoulder and said, "Finally, you're smart for once. That's what I mean. Otherwise...why would they rush up in the middle of the night, and after the evil god got into trouble? It's like telepathy."
"Pure Land?"
Wen Xi sneered and took a step forward. His aura instantly overwhelmed everyone. The man who had been ferocious just now swallowed and took a step back.
"You call Wuyuan Temple a pure land? Are you kidding me? People say that poor mountains and bad waters breed unruly people, but Xiangyun Town isn't that poor, is it? The resources here are pretty good, and they're developing tourism. So why do you have every household worshipping evil gods?"
Wen Xi directly exposed them and questioned them in a very impolite manner.
The villagers were shocked. They didn't expect Wen Xi to know about this matter, and they immediately started whispering to each other.
"Stop your nonsense! I'm the village chief of Xiangyun Town. Who says we worship evil gods? We only worship Buddha. Our devout hearts are only there to develop this place and support our families."
The village chief stood up and spoke. "Why do you think Xiangyun Town's tourism industry has been able to gradually get on track? We all rely on the mountains for our livelihood. Do you really think that in modern society, with so many poachers, our resources can still be so abundant? It's all achieved by adults. That's our Buddha, our God, what evil god? You are just slandering Wuyuan Temple. In my opinion, you want to murder their elders and abbot. If you don't hand them over, we will..."
Wen Xi asked coldly, "So what? Killing people?"
The village chief curled his lips, but the murderous look in his eyes had not yet developed to the point where he really wanted to kill someone.
"The Liuxing and Liuyun in the temple are both imposters. They were elected by your village to guard Wuyuan Temple."
Wen Xi said coldly, and with just one glance at their faces, he knew that what he said was correct.
Xiao Shaoyan frowned and said, "So the fake Liu Xing is not qualified to enter the Great Hall."
Wen Chenxi said coldly, "Do you know how many people have been killed for their own selfish interests? Do you really think the evil gods are truly only thinking about your own good? They absorb your negative emotions and your energy. Haven't you noticed that your health is deteriorating? There's a price to pay for this!"
His words caused a small commotion. The village chief said dissatisfiedly, "Don't listen to his nonsense. Let's rush in and rescue Elder Liuxing and Abbot Liuyun!"
“Charge!”
The village chief's words boosted morale, and the villagers rushed in desperately with sticks in their hands!
"How annoying! Zou Zheng, teach them a lesson, let them know how powerful we are!"
This group of unruly people were so arrogant and unreasonable that they really swung their sticks down, about to hit them. Wen Xi looked at them with disgust and coldly summoned Zou Zheng. A black shadow flashed, and soon their frightened screams were heard!
