Sunlight pierced through the dark clouds, casting a ray of bright light around Sikong and Kagura. The two were already a perfect match of handsome man and beautiful woman; the heavens were on their side, adding to their already stunning appearance, making them seem almost unreal.
“Benefactor Sikong, everything should be done in an orderly manner.”
I was here first, you latecomer!
Master Kongkong shook his head slightly, quite helpless at Sikong's unreasonable behavior.
"First come, first served—you should really keep that to yourself!"
"Smack." Sikong wrapped his arms around Kagura, glanced at Master Kongkong with a haughty air, and kissed Kagura hard in front of everyone.
"Siming, did you see that? Kagura is my woman now." Sikong couldn't stop laughing, and with nowhere to vent his anger, he kissed Kagura hard again.
Master Kongkong paused, his breathing becoming somewhat disordered.
Since taking vows and becoming a Buddhist, Master Kongkong has diligently and cautiously adhered to the monastic rules and precepts.
"Master Sikong, can't you be a little more mindful of your behavior in public?"
That shameless, seemingly refined rogue has remained unchanged for centuries!
Master Kongkong took it all in stride, but Ji Xiaoxiao's heart was in turmoil.
Lao Tzu's woman?
Ji Xiaoxiao was completely bewildered in the wind.
Is this really the ethereal and awe-inspiring sacred priest of Yin Hun Mountain?
Ji Xiaoxiao stared blankly at Sikong, only to see him pointing at her arrogantly.
"See that stunningly beautiful girl? That's my daughter with Kagura, the one we've been with day and night... Ah... Kagura, why did you hit me?"
Kagura slapped the delirious Sikong and said coquettishly, "Don't talk nonsense. What do you mean by day and night? You should be more mindful of the occasion when you're spouting nonsense."
Showing affection in public is something they deserve to die for.
Kagura sighed and kissed Sikong's cheek. "As long as Siming is here, you're not that divine priest who strategizes from afar and wins battles from a thousand miles away. Sikong, don't be foolish. Why should a perfectly good man like you argue and bicker with a bald guy? Kongkong isn't worth your anger and wasting your energy!"
"But he's still looking at you." Sikong exclaimed in surprise, "Kagura, look, look, look at that bald guy, he's still looking at you with lecherous eyes."
Sikong took a step forward, as if he were about to make a big splash.
Kagura, quick-witted and agile, grabbed Sikong and gave him a lecture with an icy air.
Sikong lowered his head in grievance, looking just like a long-haired dog abandoned by its owner.
“I’ll stay with Kongkong. You go and help Shenyin and the others.”
Upon hearing this, Sikong said seriously, "Kongkong's cultivation is approaching the Mahayana level, and the 'Heart Sutra of Universal Salvation' that he cultivates is the nemesis of people in my Demonic Sect. I am your man, and he should be dealt with by me. Shenle, it would be more appropriate for you to go and help Shenyin and the others."
Kagura glanced at Sikong, her small hands slowly and tightly clenching into fists.
Whoever has the bigger fist, whoever has the harder fist, that's who gets to do it.
Kagura's meaning was self-evident, and Sikong had no rebuttal. His cultivation was currently slightly inferior to Kongkong's; since ancient times, everything has its counter, and Buddhist cultivators are the nemesis of demonic cultivators. His attempt to confront them head-on was merely a futile resistance. Kagura, on the other hand, was a Mahayana cultivator; her presence would be beneficial rather than harmful.
There are priorities, and Sikong gritted his teeth as he watched Kagura fly into the sky, watching helplessly as she and that bald-headed Kongkong flirted and acted all lovey-dovey.
"Kong Kong, it's been a long time," Kagura said.
"Long time no see, Mountain Lord," Master Kongkong replied casually.
Kagura glided through the air as if walking on flat ground, leisurely circling the void several times.
"Kongkong? That Buddhist name doesn't sound very nice. I still prefer to call you Siming."
"I am grateful that the mountain lord has kept the old name from five hundred years ago in mind."
Master Kongkong remained unfazed, showing no remorse whatsoever for being a traitor.
What kind of person is this?!
"When you defected, did you ever think about your brother's situation?"
"Five hundred years ago, you abandoned your status as a candidate for a sacred priesthood, defected from my Yin Hun Mountain, converted to Buddhism, and sought refuge in Xin Huai Palace. Have you ever repented?"
"On our wedding day, you refused to marry me. In front of thousands of like-minded people, you abandoned me. Have you ever regretted it?"
"When Senior Liaoqing came out of seclusion and heard the news of your betrayal, he went to Xinhuai Palace alone to bring you back. However, he was ambushed by those hypocritical old monks in Xinhuai Palace, resulting in his death and dissipation. Have you ever regretted this?"
"Si Ming, tell me, have you any remorse?"
Kagura spoke a long string of words in one breath.
Long, long ago, Master Kongkong was not yet the renowned master who commanded respect from both the righteous and demonic paths. He was merely an insignificant mortal within the sphere of influence of Yinhun Mountain, at the mercy of others. By chance, Si Ming gained the favor of the then Holy Priest Liao Qing, and his status naturally rose accordingly, making him one of the candidates for the next Holy Priest.
Si Ming was exceptionally talented and had excellent aptitude. He could easily master the "Demon Sacrifice" technique from Yin Hun Mountain and effortlessly obtained the qualification to succeed the Holy Priest.
It is human nature to sympathize with the weak and admire the strong, and Kagura is no exception.
Five hundred years ago, Kagura was merely the closed-door disciple of the Yinhun Mountain Master, with a cultivation level barely reaching the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, far inferior to Si Ming, who was at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul realm.
Like repels like, and opposites attract. If the person who always surpasses her is a woman, Kagura might secretly plot against him. But when the unattainable person is a tall, handsome, and peerless man, Kagura's heart is left with Shimei.
Adhering to the principle of keeping the benefits within the family, the Lord of Yinhun Mountain and the Holy Priest adopted a powerful alliance, combining their strengths, and Kagura and Siming were brought together.
