Xiuxin heard this and said in disbelief:
"A two-year-old child? How is that possible?!"
Xiuxin hesitated for a moment and asked, "But is there someone threatening this child behind the scenes? Or is there someone guiding him?"
Chen Kuang shook his head: "No."
"After the incident, I naturally investigated and learned the whole story. No one instructed the child to do this; he told the whole story himself."
"He had seen me give the herbs to the sick man, that's all."
Knowing that these eminent monks should basically possess the supernatural power of "telepathy", what Chen Kuang said at this moment was basically the truth.
With the passive "Solid as a Rock", he can prevent others from reading his thoughts.
But firstly, there was no guarantee that they could tell whether Chen Kuang was lying, and secondly, there was no need to tell lies.
What Chen Kuang said were all the Lion Heart experiences he learned from Huo Hengxuan, which were absolutely true and without any embellishment.
In fact, he himself wondered how Lionheart, with his ability, could be so easily harmed by a few mortals.
When a cultivator transforms into a mortal, his memories and cultivation are gone, but his physical body remains the same. In any case, he is much stronger than an ordinary mortal, so he will have no problem protecting himself.
In particular, Lionheart practiced the "Clay and Gold Sculpture Method".
Chen Kuang himself practiced this technique and knew how powerful it was.
A physical body that has been trained to the extreme cannot be broken by mortals even without the use of spiritual energy.
So there is only one possibility for Lionheart's death, that is, his heart is dead.
He originally wanted to save all sentient beings and then use them to prove the path of "goodness", but he didn't expect that in the end he would be framed by the person who should have been the purest and kindest person in the world - a two-year-old child.
The villagers can't kill him, only he himself can kill him.
At that moment, Lionheart realized that he had taken the wrong path and that it would not work at all.
All the kindness in the world is never innate.
If he just wants to prove his "own goodness", then there is absolutely no problem. Lionheart definitely has such a broad and resolute heart of kindness.
But the problem is that what he wants to prove is the "goodness of all living beings."
Before he became a mortal, he grew up in the Pure Land. What he saw were either great monks or virtuous people, but also righteous disciples who strictly observed the precepts. Naturally, everyone was kind, which made him mistakenly believe that such pure goodness also existed in the world.
Who would have thought that his faith in Taoism would be broken by a two-year-old child in a small mountain village.
When human beings are born, they are neither good nor evil, just a mess.
As a result, his Taoist heart collapsed, and he voluntarily gave up his physical cultivation and died at the hands of the ignorant villagers he had once saved.
Although Huo Hengxuan did not say it, Chen Kuang felt that this was the truth behind Lionheart's death.
When Chen Kuang thought of this, he suddenly had an idea.
He felt a slight burning sensation in his palm, but it soon turned into a warm and vibrant vitality.
Chen Kuang raised his hand in surprise, only to see a gorgeous red lotus slowly blooming in his palm!
The petals of this red lotus are all made of flames. The red color is like blood, extremely strange and full of strong attraction, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Xiu Xin, who was standing next to him, was startled for a moment, then immediately realized something and looked at Chen Kuang with a look of doubt and surprise:
"Karma Fire Red Lotus! Senior Brother Lionheart's magical power!"
Many of the monks below also recognized the iconic red lotus of Lionheart, exclaimed, put their hands together, and saluted Chen Kuang.
Once one person did so, everyone followed suit, and soon a large group of people were bowing.
Chen Kuang's pupils shrank when he heard this, and he looked at the red lotus in his palm.
The enchanting red lotus seemed to notice his gaze and gently shook its petals.
Lionheart!
At the end of Huo Hengxuan's story, the village pond was filled with red lotuses overnight, attracting countless people to covet and fight for them, eventually turning the entire village into a den of ghosts.
Chen Kuang once thought that this must be an exaggeration by Huo Hengxuan to fool him.
But unexpectedly, this red lotus is actually Lionheart's magical power!
But why... would it appear in his palm now?
The petals of the red lotus in Chen Kuang's hand drooped slightly, and two of the petals touched each other, as if they were also saluting him.
Chen Kuang strangely felt that the red lotus seemed to be expressing... gratitude.
He was a little dazed for a moment.
Although Lionheart died, perhaps, before his death, he really did achieve "If I don't go to hell, who will?" He devoted himself to Taoism, preferring to die rather than kill anyone, thus proving his own goodness.
Lionheart is also one of the living beings.
Thus, he achieved half of the truth, became a saint, and then fell.
Once a saint dies completely, although he can no longer reincarnate, the way he returns to heaven and earth will carry a trace of his own mark.
Chen Kuang practiced the "Clay and Gold Sculpture Method" left by Lion Heart, and was contaminated by his karma.
At this moment, Chen Kuang returned to the Pure Land with his cause and effect and told everyone about his deeds... In fact, it was equivalent to preaching!
In other words, although Chen Kuang had never even seen Lionheart, he had indeed become Lionheart's successor.
Therefore, the trace of "Tao" belonging to Lion Heart in the dark was fed back to Chen Kuang.
By some coincidence... it actually confirmed Chen Kuang's current fake identity!
And in that hellish fire, Chen Kuang even vaguely saw fragments of Lionheart's past memories.
Chen Kuang held the Fire Red Lotus in his hand and looked at the many monks in front of the hall.
He smiled slightly:
"Thinking of all the things that happened in the past, I was suddenly moved. Now that I have returned to the Pure Land, I am filled with joy. I hope that I can once again attain the Great Way in the future. I encourage you all."
