Chapter 232: Chapter 136: Securing Victory with a Proclamation
Two Daoists emerged from the void again, each grabbing a corpse, then carrying Kong Shi like a dead dog, quickly heading downwards.
Zhao Yi turned back, looked at the group of monks kneeling on the ground, and finally set his gaze on Elder Hui Yuan, who managed the Scripture Pavilion.
"Lead the way, I wish to visit your Buddhist Sect’s Secret Realm." Zhao Yi asked with a smile, "Is that okay?"
"No problem!" Elder Hui Yuan nodded rapidly, like pounding garlic.
Having just witnessed Zhao Yi effortlessly crush two Tier Nine Saint King Realm beings, Elder Hui Yuan was almost scared to death, no longer daring to talk about converting Zhao Yi.
Although Kong Shi’s two elders were defective among the Tier Nine Saint King Realm, a Tier Nine Saint King Realm is still a Tier Nine Saint King Realm.
Even though Miaoyin Zhenren was exceptionally talented, she was still beaten everywhere, struggling to survive against them.
Yet Zhao Yi killed them as easily as killing chickens.
Previously, Elder Hui Yuan harbored resentment after being slapped, but now he was completely awakened.
When Zhao Yi told him to go east, he dared not go west.
"Amitabha!"
Elder Hui Yuan chanted solemnly while ingratiatingly smiling at Zhao Yi.
"Crown Prince, the Secret Realm of Little Leiyin Temple is right in the backyard of the Great Hero Hall. I’ll take you there now."
Elder Hui Yuan’s old face, with hair white as crane feathers, was full of worldly cunning, looking ridiculous, without a bit of the demeanor expected of a monk.
"Crown Prince, the Buddhist Secret Realm can only be opened with a Bodhi Seed, and the temple’s Bodhi Seeds are all in the hands of the traitor Hui Yan. Hui Yan is a traitor to the Buddhist Sect; the reason Little Leiyin Temple is opposing your Highness is entirely because of Hui Yan’s instigation. He even wants the abbot to lead people down the mountain to engage in a decisive battle with the Crown Prince. Please punish Hui Yan, Your Highness!"
As Elder Hui Yuan spoke, he secretly observed Zhao Yi’s expression and felt anxious upon seeing no reaction.
Immediately, he couldn’t afford to keep any secrets, hurriedly saying, "I accidentally obtained a Bodhi Seed in my early years and am willing to offer it to Your Highness!"
While speaking, Elder Hui Yuan took out a Bodhi Seed from somewhere and raised it high before Zhao Yi.
"Please accept it with a smile, Crown Prince!"
Zhao Yi glanced at the Bodhi Seed, didn’t say much, just nodded, and then took the lead walking towards the backyard of the Great Hero Hall.
Miaoyin Zhenren passed by Elder Hui Yuan, smiled at him, and lightly followed behind Zhao Yi.
Seeing Miaoyin Zhenren’s smile, Elder Hui Yuan was instantly energized.
Elder Hui Yuan was a smart person.
After the abbot Hui Chi ran away, he knew that Little Leiyin Temple was finished.
He also considered escaping but was unwilling to do so.
Having cultivated diligently for over a hundred years to achieve his current status and level in the Tier Nine Saint King Realm, Elder Hui Yuan naturally didn’t want to fall into the status of a fugitive.
He was very confident in his eloquence; as long as Zhao Yi gave him a chance to speak, he could show Zhao Yi his worth.
Elder Hui Yuan was most worried that Zhao Yi would deal with him like those combat puppets, killing him outright without a word.
Miaoyin Zhenren’s smile gave Elder Hui Yuan hope to live.
Energized, he held the Bodhi Seed and ran after Zhao Yi and Miaoyin Zhenren.
"Crown Prince, this humble monk will lead the way for you!"
"Your Highness, Little Leiyin Temple is filthy, sullying your feet, what a sin!"
"Master, watch your step, it’s slippery!"
Outside the Great Hero Hall, the monks who heard Elder Hui Yuan’s distant voice looked at each other.
They hadn’t expected Elder Hui Yuan to be so shameless, only trying to please the Crown Prince, without considering them!
"What should we do now?" someone asked in a low voice.
With this question, Little Leiyin Temple became lively.
Someone suggested, "Why not just escape! With so many of us, even the Crown Prince of Great Xia couldn’t possibly kill all of us at once!"
Upon hearing this, someone immediately opposed, "Escape? Where to? The Great Xia Crown Prince indeed can’t kill all of us instantly, but the Imperial Guard can! Consider Elder Hui Yuan; isn’t his strength greater than ours? Even he doesn’t dare escape; running would be a dead end for us!"
After the opposition’s words, the monks who had been eager to flee immediately gave up the idea.
"So what do we do now?"
The monk who initially suggested fleeing protested, "Don’t forget the Crown Prince’s order — he’s going to kill all the monks at Little Leiyin Temple; staying is certain death!"
The monk opposed to escape said, "Staying offers a slight chance of survival, fleeing is certain death! Don’t forget the Imperial Guard at the foot of the mountain; can you outrun them? If you want to run, go ahead; I’m staying!"
After finishing, he calmly sat in lotus posture and silently started chanting scriptures.
Seeing this scene, the other monks looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Meanwhile.
Zuo Xiaoluo took charge of the Imperial Guard’s command and immediately led people to find Hui Yan.
Seeing Zuo Xiaoluo, Hui Yan was momentarily stunned.
He’d heard Zhao Yi mention inviting the Grand General of the North Great Xia, expecting a burly man, but was instead faced with a remarkable woman.
