h4Chapter 960: Chapter 957: Fuyao Returns from Her Tribtion/h4

    The sudden Buddhist chant echoed throughout this world.

    For a moment.

    The cultivators of the Nine Provinces all simultaneously stopped their ughter and looked towards the golden light that emerged in the distance.

    Without exception.

    Even Yuan Kui and Situ Shu, the two Nascent Soul Stage experts, disyed looks of shock.

    They never imagined.

    The Buddhist Sect woulde as well.

    Indeed.

    The Kunlun Mountains Minor World not only had cultivators, but also people from the Buddhist Sect.

    However.

    The people of the Buddhist Sect have always lived secluded within the boundaries of Liang State, devoted to cultivating Buddhist Law.

    As a result, people gradually forgot their existence.

    Yet.

    No one dared to underestimate the presence of the Buddhist Sect.

    Because they possess the power to enlighten all beings.

    Before everyone could recover from their shock.

    A monk dressed in a golden kasaya, radiating an aura of Buddhist light and with a kind and gentle demeanor, appeared in front of Xu Wendong.

    He joined his hands together, quietly chanting Amitabha Buddha.

    Meanwhile,

    A surge of Buddhist light shot skywards, repelling Yuan Kui’s Bronze Cauldron.

    This single move.

    Profoundly shocked everyone present.

    Nobody anticipated the monk’s strength to be so terrifying.

    "This humble monk is Kongyuan from the Western Buddhist Sect!" the monk announced, then said, "Benefactor Xu has an affinity with Buddha. This humble monk hase to lead him to take refuge in Buddha, hoping you two will show mercy and give our Buddhist Sect some respect!"

    Situ Shu and Yuan Kui’s faces turned utterly grim. They never expected the Buddhist Sect to protect Xu Wendong at this critical moment.

    This was difficult for them to ept, as they had coveted the treasures on Xu Wendong.

    If he were allowed to leave, it would be like a cooked duck flying away.

    Yet.

    Reluctant as they were.

    They did not dare to oppose the Western Buddhist Sect.

    For the Western Buddhist Sect is the only power that stands above the Nine Provinces!

    "Cough, cough!"

    Xu Wendong coughed up blood inrge amounts, standing weakly but with a smile asked, "Master, did youe all the way from the Buddhist Sect just to have me take refuge in Buddha?"

    Kongyuan: "Yes, our Buddha sensed that Benefactor Xu has a Buddha root, thus guided this humble monk eastward to lead Benefactor Xu to take refuge in Buddha."

    "Eh-ptui!"

    Xu Wendong spitefully spat out a mouthful of bloody water, his face full of anger, "Put away your Buddhist Sect’s false benevolence!"

    This scene deeply shook everyone present.

    No one expected Xu Wendong to explode at the Buddhist monk.

    He even spat towards the monk’s face.

    "I, Xu Wendong, do not believe in Buddha at all!"

    Xu Wendong shouted angrily, "Damn it!"

    "You keep speaking of benevolence and salvation for all."

    "If so, why do you ignore the killing of Qingzhou cultivators by the Eight Provinces’ cultivators?"

    "Aren’t they all part of sentient beings?"

    His face was full of anger, his voice thundered, echoing everywhere like a p of thunder.

    These words moved the cultivators of the Nine Provinces deeply.

    As Xu Wendong said.

    If the Western Buddhist Sect truly aimed to save all beings, full ofpassion, they wouldn’t be mere spectators today.

    At this moment.

    Even Situ Shu and Yuan Kui looked at Xu Wendong in a new light.

    They actually were also displeased with the Buddhist Sect.

    After all, the Buddhist Sect stands above the Nine Provinces Imperial Family, clearly the strongest power in the Nine Provinces, yet they’ve been indifferent to the ughter by the Demon Sect heretics.

    Moreover, during several great battles besieging the Demon Sect, they did not send anyone to participate.

    Yet.

    Not everyone has the courage like Xu Wendong to question the Buddhist Sect.

    "Amitabha Buddha!" Kongyuan joined his hands, "Our Buddha only guides those with affinity!"

    "Eh-ptui!"

    Xu Wendong yelled furiously, "If you are truly about saving all beings, you shouldn’t differentiate between them. And, the ’affinity’ you talk about, you probably mean ’wealthy affinity’?"

    He inherently disliked the Buddhist Sect, not to mention, their stepping out at such a critical moment.

    This wouldn’t make him grateful.

    On the contrary, it made him even more averse to the Buddhist Sect.

    Because he knew.

    The people from the Buddhist Sect most likely arrived long ago, and they only chose to appear when he was at the end of his strength to save his life.

    It must be said, such means are truly lowly.

    "Amitabha Buddha!" Kongyuan joined his hands, "This humble monk does not know why Benefactor Xu has such deep prejudices against the Buddhist Sect, but if Benefactor Xu is unwilling to go to the Buddhist Sect with me, I naturally will not force you or interfere with the causalities of today!"

    Situ Shu and Yuan Kui were secretly delighted.

    As long as the Buddhist Sect did not interfere in this matter.

    For them, Xu Wendong was truly just an ant.

    "Damn it, you’re truly crafty!" Xu Wendongughed heartily, "Clearly a threat, yet you say it in such a grand manner. I must say, your Buddhist Sect truly epitomizes hypocrisy to the fullest!"

    Kongyuan maintained apassionate smile, as if Xu Wendong’s insults couldn’t affect his mood.

    Xu Wendong looked at the Qingzhou cultivators fighting valiantly in the distance, finally sighing and said: "If the master is willing to rescue my Qingzhou cultivators, I, Xu Wendong, am willing to take refuge in the Buddhist Sect!"

    He may not like the Buddhist Sect.

    But for the sake of saving the Qingzhou cultivators.

    He had no other choice.

    Upon hearing Xu Wendong’s words, the pupils of Situ Shu and Yuan Kui trembled violently, a strong sense of unease rising in their hearts.

    If.

    The Buddhist Sect truly decided to interfere in the conflicts of the Nine Provinces’ cultivators, then all their ns would be for naught!

    "Amitabha Buddha!" Kongyuan joined his hands, "This humble monk’s purpose here is solely to guide Benefactor Xu, it does not include these people!"

    "Eh-ptui!" Xu Wendong spat another mouthful of bloody water onto his face, furiously saying: "Go back and tell your Western Buddhist Sect that even if I die, I will never collude with you bald donkeys!"

    Kongyuan smiled and said, "This humble monk will convey Benefactor Xu’s words to my Buddha!" Then, a golden light appeared beneath his feet, carrying him westward, and he left this world.

    After Kongyuan left, Yuan Kui looked at Xu Wendong with aplex expression: "You made the wrong choice!"

    "It seems, from the beginning to the end, it was always me who was wrong!" Xu Wendong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, standing upright like a Divine Sword between heaven and earth, exuding an aura of unyielding resilience.

    "But, was I really wrong?"

    He looked at the Qingzhou cultivators flying towards him from afar, as if they anticipated something, they gave up killing the Eight Provinces cultivators, intending to live and die with Xu Wendong.

    "Even if I am wrong, I am willing to stay wrong to the end!"

    "Though the Great Dao is emotionless."

    "We as cultivators cannot be those who disregard good and evil, and are devoid of feelings and justice!"

    Situ Shu snorted coldly: "The cultivation realm knows only strength, not good and evil!"

    "I have no interest in talking with you, you all go die!" He waved his horsetail whisk, and a majestic Nascent Soul Force, like a zing sun, tore through the darkness, heading towards Xu Wendong and the Qingzhou cultivators to engulf them.

    The terrifying Nascent Soul Force made everyone’s physical body hard to bear, even at a great distance, the Qingzhou Golden Core Realm cultivators’ bodies shattered, spraying blood mist everywhere.

    However, their eyes were exceptionally determined, they did not fear the arrival of death.

    Because to them.

    This was the best oue.

    Without warning.

    A cold female voice resounded across the sky: "Do you truly think my Jade Maiden Pce is a soft persimmon to be pinched?"

    Upon hearing this.

    Everyone gasped, eyes revealing an uncontroble joy.

    Even Xu Wendong’s eyes brimmed with tears.

    He looked at the woman who appeared out of thin air before him, crying with joy: "You’re finally back, damn it!"
