"You demonic soldiers and monsters, cease your attack immediately! Those who behave themselves will be punished leniently; but those who resist will not be spared!"
"Excellent, little fairy, you are indeed a person of the spirit realm. You are decisive yet leave room for maneuver in your actions." The great monk's voice was soft and was drowned out by the thunder.
The Brahma lamp illuminated the surrounding sky, and Zhu Yi unleashed the Buddha Fire Technique. Amidst the wailing cries, she also released her ultimate killing technique. The first one, Golden Lotus Intertwined, caused all the demons to retreat.
Lotus blossoms bloom in profusion, golden lotuses intertwined and scattered, forming a lotus gate. Inside the gate, small vortexes of dark color emanate. Demons and monsters can pass through this lotus gate to reach Fengdu to be judged. After being punished, they can be reincarnated.
The abbot of Luohan Temple could sense the benevolent power within Zhu Yi's magic, and she ultimately spared these demons and monsters a sliver of hope.
"Zhu Yi! You'll die a horrible death!" Zhu Qianying cried out indignantly. "Why? Why should I be treated like this by you?"
"You should be inferior to me in every way!"
Zhu Yi really couldn't understand what kind of thought process this person had.
“I am different from you. You believe in the hierarchy of legitimate and illegitimate children, and you are particular about social status. You always look at others with your self-righteous superiority. Little do you know that the distinctions you value are nonsense in my eyes.”
"All men are created equal. God may give each person a different background, but I always believe that God gives everyone an equal opportunity."
Zhu Qianying's face was grotesque and hideous from the Buddhist fire. The cheeks that Zhu Yi had burned with the Netherworld Ghost Fire were revealed again, frightening the little demons around her into retreating. "Equality? How can there be equality? You actually think that everyone in this world is born equal?"
"I was born into a noble family, why should I let you, a concubine's daughter, steal the man I love? And why should you, a concubine's daughter, make me look like a ghost with a face full of wounds?"
Now, when Zhu Yi faced Zhu Qianying's violent and ferocious demeanor again, she was no longer as afraid as she had been before.
She looked around at the sea of fire and thunderclouds, and the demonic beasts and soldiers rushing for thousands of miles. As her gaze swept across the area, she suddenly saw a monkey that had gained sentience, and a subtle sadness welled up in her heart.
The demon beast was burned red all over by the Buddha's fire, but the little demon beast in his arms was perfectly protected.
Many human emotions are shared. For example, at this moment, Zhu Yi felt more and more that the suffering caused by fighting and killing was unbearable. Although the Golden Lotus Gate could allow them to be reincarnated and reborn, could they still be mother and daughter again in the next life?
Thinking this way, Zhu Yi couldn't help but burst into tears. Then she thought that the lowest-ranking demon soldiers and monsters were all doing things according to the orders of their superiors.
They probably don't want to attack the cultivation world; they just want to stay in their little home, eating, drinking, and sunbathing peacefully together.
Zhu Yi's gaze toward Zhu Qianying became even more hostile.
"You could have relied on your family's love and care to cultivate diligently and find a loving partner to spend your life with. But you didn't know how to cherish what you had. Did you think that by colluding with the demons, you could gain the power to deal with me?"
The golden lotus formed by her magic was imbued with Buddhist fire and lightning power. Zhu Yi ignored Zhu Qianying's foul language below. At this moment, she suddenly understood that some people's persistence is useful, while some persistence can only hurt others and themselves.
She looked up at the sky and said coldly, "May the sins you suffer in your next life teach you to live a more open-minded life."
"No!" Zhu Qianying had many more words left to say, but Zhu Yi didn't give her a chance to speak.
The golden lotus floated down, thunder roared, and three lightning bolts struck in succession, extinguishing Zhu Qianying's lifeless body.
Zhu Yi breathed a sigh of relief after witnessing her soul being burned by the Buddha's fire and forcibly sending it to the Golden Lotus Gate.
At his feet, the little black snake had already tightly coiled around his calf. Su Linyuan, who acted entirely on instinct, was even careful in his movements as he entangled her.
A lump formed in her throat; she felt a pang of guilt towards him. He had been drugged, yet he had waited here for so long…
With a thought, the Crane Feather Flying Vehicle automatically floated down in front of the abbot. Zhu Yi's face flushed slightly, and she was a little uneasy. "Um, Abbot, I didn't mean to set fire or lightning. It's possible that the area outside Luohan Temple will need to be rebuilt..."
"Would I be considered to have harmed many living beings outside while hindering the demonic soldiers?"
Her tone was genuinely filled with guilt.
The senior monk didn't say much, his gaze towards Zhu Yi was very peaceful. He simply asked calmly, "If it happened again, would you, female benefactor, still do the same thing?"
Zhu Yi bowed respectfully and said, "If I had another chance, I would still do the same!"
With a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, she then looked somewhat uneasy and whispered, "Abbot, those demonic soldiers and monsters outside still need the monks to restrain them. The Golden Lotus Gate can hold out for another two hours. We need to finish this quickly."
"But I have something else to do right now, so I'll slip away for a bit! You can keep watch here for now!"
Zhu Yi spoke lightly, but she was very uneasy. It wasn't that she was afraid of facing the current complicated situation, but that she sensed that Su Linyuan was getting impatient!
It's already biting its own leg!
That's him! In his black snake form, he doesn't deserve to be called a man!
The Crane Feather flying vehicle quickly found a quiet place, a residential house a little away from Luohan Temple. Zhu Yi suddenly smiled and said, "I suddenly feel that fate is so wonderful."
Before she could think about the connection between these things, she felt a sense of déjà vu, as if God was giving Xiao Zhuyi and Jiang Lin a chance to start over.
Before the Crane Feather Flying Vehicle could land safely, she released a leaf from the Bodhi Divine Tree, which formed a spatial trapping array. The light green leaf, like a large ship, slowly enveloped her and Su Linyuan.
"Brother Lin Yuan, I finally have time to be with you. Those demon soldiers outside will be gone in a little while!"
Zhu Yi spoke lightly, but she was actually thinking about how to help Su Linyuan detoxify. This Enchanting Fragrance was truly a top-quality elixir that they had spared no expense on, but unfortunately, it wasn't being used in the right place.
The Brahma Lamp stood silently to the side, and the blue-tailed mermaid sighed, "That woman is really wicked!"
"You have no other choice but to consummate the marriage!"
Even though she was somewhat prepared, Zhu Yi was still surprised by the little mermaid's words.
“I know.” Her hands were trembling.
“But Su Linyuan is currently in the form of a little black snake, I…”
I really can't even imagine or write about this, right?
The blue-tailed merman, abandoning her usual haughtiness, quietly said, "The spirit snake clan has a way to save their lives."
"His Nirvana is an important place for him to nourish his wounded soul."
"He gave you his most precious spiritual essence to nourish your soul. Otherwise, how could you withstand the divine nourishment from the spirit world?"
Tears streamed down her face without her even realizing it, and Zhu Yi had no idea what was happening.
She carefully recalled that time when she first entered Su Linyuan's Void of Return, she was just a soul attached to a lotus flower.
At that time, she was too panicked to notice anything different.
"Hey, I think you seem a bit silly, but I don't know how to explain it to you. Ensuring that powerful spiritual energy and divine essence don't leak out is really a very important thing."
"Back then, if your lotus flower hadn't been nourished and protected by his essence and spiritual energy, it would have exploded," the little mermaid said coolly, flicking its tail.
"You can also enter the Ruins of Return, but it will be your soul."
Zhu Yi seemed to understand. So you did so many things without my knowledge!
When she looked at the little black snake again, the tenderness in her eyes was impossible to hide.
The little mermaid seemed to see tiny peach blossoms blooming on her neck, as if by magic.
Su Linyuan, inside the Ruins of Return, was burning up, his soul filled with an intense heat that he could not dissipate.
The heatwaves surged one after another, as if they were trying to tear him apart, bite him, and engulf him.
Just when he could no longer bear the heat, he suddenly felt a warm, cool sensation gently soothing him.
Then, an indescribable joy swept over me, as if something was gently kissing me.
A familiar, chaotic feeling, filled with tender affection, swept over me.
Zhu Yi gently touched Su Linyuan's tightly furrowed brows and eyes, her cool fingers smoothing out his tension. In their soul state within the void, they naturally slept together.
But this guy was so calm and composed just now, like a normal person. How come he's acting so crazy now?
In the soul state, a person's perception of their own body is not as obvious as it is in the physical body.
However, Zhu Yi is currently feeling very unwell.
Amidst the seemingly unbearable pain, she finally found a foothold in the midst of a raging storm. Tormented by the turmoil, she couldn't help but bite Su Linyuan's shoulder hard: "I think even though you're a snake, you should be a dog."
"That's so mean!"
In his confused state, Su Linyuan said, "Yi'er, Yi'er."
Every word was sincere and full of deep affection.
For a long time, he could only say this one sentence.
These words completely silenced Zhu Yi.
"Well, we suffered too much in our past lives."
"You probably haven't heard of a line of poetry that I really like: 'I'd rather die ten thousand times and have my beautiful wings shattered than bear to see them torn apart in the clouds.'"
Zhu Yi's voice was somewhat intermittent, and she wasn't sure if Su Linyuan was even listening. She said, "Be gentle, I don't want you to bite me like that, otherwise, you really are a dog of a man!"
Within the Bodhi Space Leaf, the blue-tailed mermaid, with a righteous expression, directed the bright spot of the Buddhist fire to prevent the little monsters from seeing the blush on Zhu Yi's face through the lampshade.
Zhu Yi lay quietly in one place, with a small black snake tightly wrapped around her wrist. The two of them seemed to be asleep, but in fact they were hiding in a corner doing some...hehehe.
The little mermaid looked at the bunch of silly little zombies behind her, the sleepy little peach blossom, and the gossipy three-tailed fox, and thought they really didn't understand life!
