You said you could kill the evil spirits without me, why are you crying now?

Chapter 413 If a person knows to do good but does not do it, it is his sin

Around the blond and blue-eyed middle-aged foreign man,

There was a thick layer of pure white light lingering around it, the light was like the brilliant glory sprinkled by the wings of a holy angel.
It is as if a soft and mysteriously shimmering carpet is gently spread between the sky and the sea.
It is like a dream, making people dizzy and mesmerized.

The foreign man was seen walking slowly and gracefully on the carpet that was paved with light and looked extremely holy.

Every step seems to step on everyone's heartstrings, bringing waves of invisible pressure.

The members of the Great Xia Empire Defense Force who were responsible for guarding this side,

Their eyes were instantly attracted by the strange sight, and solemn expressions appeared on their faces.

They are all veterans with rich experience.

Knowing that this scene was not ordinary, this seemingly extraordinary method,

It is enough for them to be aware of it.

The strength of this fleet should not be underestimated.

"Looking at their attire, could it be that they are from the mysterious Church of Light?"

Someone in the defense team lowered his voice and murmured in confusion and vigilance.

The person in charge of the Great Xia Empire Defense Force on duty today is named Hou Zhijian.

He was standing in front of the team, his sharp eyes fixed on the foreign man, his mind full of thoughts.

Through the peculiar techniques performed by this foreign middle-aged man,
Combined with the other party's highly recognizable dressing style and appearance,
Hou Zhijian already had a rough guess in his mind.

But he really couldn't figure it out.
Why is it that during this special period when the Great Xia Empire is under a complete blockade and any visit is strictly prohibited?

The people of the Holy See of Light will suddenly appear in the coastal areas of the Great Xia Empire like ghosts.

Moreover, it came uninvited and broke the original tranquility without any warning, which made people feel uneasy.

"Report the current situation immediately, there is no time to lose!"

Hou Zhijian gave orders to a member of the defense team behind him in a deep voice, his tone revealing unquestionable authority and urgency.

The member of the defense team also knew that this matter was of great importance and did not dare to delay even a little.

Turn around immediately,

He ran towards the communications room like an arrow, his feet moving fast.

And the middle-aged man standing on the carpet of light,
Naturally, I also know what the person who suddenly ran away was doing.

He gave a meaningful smile but ignored it.

Instead, he slowly raised his hands and began to introduce himself.

"Hello everyone,
I am the Archbishop of the Holy See of Light from the Lighthouse Empire.

You can call me Beckett."

The middle-aged man had a stern face, expressionless face, and a deep and magnetic voice.
And with the sound of bells from deep in the ancient and mysterious church,
Echoing in the air, with an unquestionable majesty and solemnity,
The atmosphere around them instantly became more solemn.

He paused for a moment and continued, "The White-Red Empire has always been a loyal vassal state of our Lighthouse Empire.
However, it has suddenly encountered a major shock recently and is in danger.

According to various rumors from the outside world and some seemingly insignificant but not negligible evidence,
We have every reason to suspect that Chu He is the mastermind behind all this.

I hope Chu He can show up and have a frank talk with us.

After all, the matter has now spread like wildfire in the outside world, and the whole city is in turmoil.

It would be inappropriate for Chu He to hide behind the scenes all the time, wouldn't it? "

"Oh? Where is the evidence? Why not show it to us?"

Hou Zhijian sneered.
I thought to myself: "It is true.
Recently, there have indeed been a lot of small-scale chaos in the coastal areas of the Great Xia Empire.
But those were just trivial matters that could be easily resolved with a little handling.

But now, the one coming is the Holy See of Light of the Lighthouse Empire.
This is a huge existence that can be regarded as a behemoth all over the world!
If such a force also comes to cause trouble, it will be very difficult for the current situation of the Great Xia Empire.

This is undoubtedly adding insult to injury and is definitely not a good thing. I am afraid a storm is coming.”

Hou Zhijian clenched his fists, his knuckles turned slightly white, and his eyes became more determined.
We are ready for the storm.

Swear to protect every inch of land and dignity of the Great Xia Empire.

Above the rough sea, the sea breeze was howling, causing the waves to surge, as if playing a prelude to the impending conflict.

The huge ships are like steel monsters, standing quietly on the sea, exuding a cold atmosphere.

At this moment, the atmosphere is so tense that it can ignite the air.
The confrontation between Beckett and Hou Zhijian attracted everyone's attention.

"Are you questioning me?"

Beckett's voice, wrapped in the chill from the polar regions, diffused lightly in the air.

His eyes were like knives, staring straight at Hou Zhijian.
His eyes were full of contempt of a superior for an ant, and any question from the other party was a blasphemy to him.

"It's not really questioning, I'm just asking for evidence. Isn't that too much to ask?"

Hou Zhijian did not back down. He puffed out his chest and looked back at Beckett with sharp eyes.

As the person in charge of the defense of the Great Xia Empire in this sea area,
He has experienced countless storms and witnessed many crises, so how could he be intimidated by Beckett's pressure?

To retreat at this moment is not only a denial of oneself, but also a violation of the dignity of the Great Xia Empire.

"This world has fallen into darkness and chaos because there are too many fools like you!"

Beckett snorted disdainfully, the disgust on his face becoming more intense.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his finger.

The fingers were white and slender, but they carried the breath of death.

He just lightly tapped Hou Zhijian through the void. The movement seemed gentle, but it was like the god of death swinging his scythe.

In an instant, a blinding pure white light burst out in front of Hou Zhijian.
The light condenses into a huge fingerprint, and the fingerprint has life.
It emitted terrifying energy fluctuations, and the surrounding air was distorted by this force.

In just a moment, Hou Zhijian felt an irresistible force coming at him like a tidal wave.
He didn't have time to react at all.

The whole person seemed to be hit by a huge cannon and flew backwards like a cannonball.

"boom!"

Hou Zhijian slammed heavily into the sea, and the sea water instantly raised huge waves with splashes everywhere, which were about to dye the sky blue.

The loud noise echoed on the sea for a long time, scaring the surrounding birds away.

Time passed minute by minute, the sea was still rough, but there was no sign of Hou Zhijian.

Beckett watched coldly, his face showing no emotion at all.

All this was within his expectations, he just did a trivial thing.

Witnessing this scene, the faces of the other defense team members suddenly changed.
Their eyes were filled with shock and anger.

In their hearts, Hou Zhijian is their backbone.

Now he was knocked away by Beckett's move and his life or death is uncertain.

Without the slightest hesitation, they leaped into the sea like a dragon.
They jumped into the rough sea, trying hard to find Hou Zhijian's trace.

Fortunately, Hou Zhijian did not sink into the deep sea.

The defense team members quickly rescued him, but the scene before them made them heartbroken.

Hou Zhijian’s face was as pale as paper, and blood kept gushing out of his mouth, dyeing the surrounding sea red.

Although there was still a trace of clarity in his eyes,
But his breathing was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.

Who could have thought that a powerful man at the king level would be so vulnerable in front of Beckett.

"Fleet, keep moving forward!"

Beckett did not stop for a moment. He turned a blind eye to Hou Zhijian's miserable condition and turned to give orders to the fleet.

A carpet of light beneath your feet,
Like a mysterious passage leading to the unknown, it continues to extend forward.

Beckett stepped leisurely onto this strange carpet of light, and with each step,
The figure instantly appeared a hundred meters away, at a speed so fast that it was dazzling, like a ghost. This strange light blanket did not extend very far.

Not far away, three figures emerged from the void.

They are Xiao Yu, Nan Tingxue and Lin Zuoguang.

The three of them looked solemn, their eyes fixed on Beckett.

"Take Hou Zhijian to the hospital first, and leave this to us."

Xiao Yu's expression was serious and his tone was firm.

The Beckett in front of us comes from the prestigious Holy See of Light, and its strength is unfathomable.

How dare the other party so arrogantly intrude into the waters of the Great Xia Empire?

It was obvious that he came prepared, and he might have heard that the teacher was in seclusion.

This means that the information that was strictly sealed off by the Great Xia Empire has been leaked, and there must be a traitor inside.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu was filled with helplessness and anger.
But he had no intention of retreating.
At this moment, he and his companions are the last line of defense for the empire.

Nan Tingxue and Lin Zuoguang nodded silently.

The three of them stood side by side, like three towering mountains above the vast ocean.
Prepare for a tough battle and defend the dignity and glory of the Great Xia Empire.

The sea breeze was like a mad beast, howling and raging, with a sharp whistling sound that could tear a person's eardrums.

The sea surface was turbulent, with huge waves as big as mountains rising and falling.

It hit the hull hard, making a deafening roar.

The atmosphere around was as heavy as a leaden cloud pressing down heavily on one's head, making one feel suffocated.

Xiao Yu, Nan Tingxue and Lin Zuoguang stood proudly in the air in a triangular shape, their sleeves rustling fiercely in the strong wind.

His eyes were like three blazing lasers.
He fixed his eyes on Beckett, who was emitting a cold aura, and his eyes were full of vigilance and determination.

Beckett snorted disdainfully, and the icy voice penetrated everyone's eardrums: "I know very well that the three of you are just Chu He's direct disciples.

Look at you, you are just relying on the divine power you plundered from others.
Taking the opportunistic shortcut is like a foolish farmer who tries to force growth by forcing things, and ends up with something weird and unstable.

Chu He may have some personal strength, but when it comes to teaching students, he is far inferior to us in the Holy See of Light. He is not even a hair behind us."

After saying this, the corners of his mouth drew up an arc of extreme sarcasm, and the contempt on his face was about to overflow.
That look of arrogance and contempt for all living beings would make anyone angry when seeing it.

These words and sentences were like sharp poisonous thorns, piercing into the hearts of the three people.

You know, in the hearts of Xiao Yu, Nan Tingxue and Lin Zuoguang,
Chuhe is a god who stands tall and upright, and is omnipotent.
It is the pillar of faith that enables them to move forward in this chaotic world, and it is the shining beacon that illuminates their long journey.

To them, Chu He is not only a mentor who teaches them knowledge, but also a guide for their souls.
It is the existence that they will do their best to follow and protect.

Now that they were humiliated by Beckett, anger instantly ignited in the eyes of the three.

The flames leapt high, and his chest heaved violently like a volcano about to erupt. His fists clenched unconsciously, his knuckles turned white from the force, as if he was ready to rush forward and fight if there was any disagreement.

"No matter how good the three of us are, don't even think about taking another step forward today!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Nan Tingxue hurriedly spoke up to stop her two companions who were already on the verge of going berserk.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm the turbulent waves in her heart, and looked at Beckett with a firm gaze.
He tried to use his calmness to suppress the tense atmosphere that was about to explode.

“Whoever knows to do good and does not do it, for him it is sin.”

Beckett seemed not to hear Nan Tingxue's words and just murmured this sentence to himself.

There was a weirdness in that voice that made people shudder.

The slender, pale, and almost sickly fingers slowly rose up, and as if in slow motion, they took off a cross that was flashing a mysterious cold light from the neck.

In an instant, the air was severely twisted by an invisible and powerful force.
The strange fluctuations spread wildly around Beckett.

It was like a calm lake being hit by a huge rock, causing huge waves.

Xiao Yu, Nan Tingxue and Lin Zuoguang felt their whole bodies suddenly tighten.
Instantly tied up by countless extremely tough, invisible ropes,
An inexplicably powerful force, like a surging undercurrent, violently broke into their bodies.

They were entangled and stirred wantonly, like a group of demons rampaging through their meridians.

The three of them suddenly felt the power in their bodies go out of control, turning into wild horses that have broken free from their reins, running wildly and uncontrollably.

His body was grabbed by an invisible hand and fell uncontrollably from the sky.

At that moment, they were like birds with broken wings, tumbling and struggling helplessly in the strong wind, and crashing straight into the sea.

The cold sea water had opened its bloody mouth, ready to swallow them up impatiently.

At this critical moment,
The three relied on their strong will like steel and their profound and solid foundation.
Suddenly woke up.

The power in the body roared like a sleeping beast awakened.

It is like a roaring engine, continuously outputting powerful power.

They clenched their teeth, their teeth chattered, and tried their best to regulate their disordered breathing.
He mobilized the chaotic strength in his body and finally stabilized his body just before touching the sea surface.

At this time, the three of them had solemn expressions on their faces, with beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads.

It hit the sea surface, splashing tiny water, and its eyes revealed deep fear.

This Beckett is too terrifying. With just one sentence and one simple action,

can exert such a strange and powerful force to directly interfere with the operation of the power in their bodies.
Controlling their life and death, this method is simply unheard of and makes people terrified.

……

White Elephant Empire.

Here, the sunshine seems to be blessed by the gods.
Gently sprinkled on the altar that towers into the sky,
A layer of dreamy and sacred light emerged, covering the entire altar with a layer of golden gauze.

A monk was wearing a plain robe, which fluttered gently in the wind and emitted Buddha's light.

He put his hands together devoutly, his fingers were long and clean,

Hanging around her neck is a string of round and full Buddhist beads that exude an ancient atmosphere, and each bead carries the Zen spirit of thousands of years.

He raised his head slightly, closed his eyes, and muttered something. His voice was like a loud bell, resounding in all directions.
It has the power to penetrate the soul, reach deep into people's hearts, and dispel all the haze in the world.

The sight extends downward from the altar, and one can see the dense crowds of people below the altar.

A vast ocean formed by pure people, boundless, with tens of thousands of people crowded together like surging waves.

They were dressed in plain clothes, their faces were pious and pure, and their eyes followed the monk on the stage closely.
Listening to the oracle, his eyes were filled with awe and anticipation.

"One flower, one world; one Buddha, one Tathagata."

The monk's voice came slowly, echoing in the air, and the lingering sound was lingering: "This sentence expresses the highest realm of Zen.

It reminds us to comprehend the great principles of heaven and earth from the subtle details of our daily lives."

He slightly opened his eyes, his eyes were compassionate, able to tolerate all the suffering in the world, and he slowly scanned the people in the audience.
Wherever the eyes go, the warm sunshine is sprinkled, bringing a sense of peace to people's hearts.

“If everyone loves Buddha, believes in Buddha, and respects Buddha, then everyone can become a Buddha.”

The monk had a smile on his face as warm as the spring breeze.
A smile has a magical power that can dispel the haze in people's hearts and make them happy.

He slowly raised his hands and stretched them toward the sky.

As if embracing the whole world, the movement was graceful and powerful: "From now on, the White Elephant Empire will no longer exist. This land, this blue planet, will only be the Buddha's kingdom!"

"Buddhaland! Buddhaland! Buddhaland!"

The people in the audience were instantly boiling with excitement, as if a bonfire had been ignited.

Everyone stood up at once, their faces flushed red, their eyes flashing with fanaticism, filled with the words "crazy" and "enthusiastic".

Once, they were defeated by Chu He alone.
The decadence and frustration after defeat were completely cleared from the bottom of my heart.

At this moment, they only have incomparable pride in their hearts.
And the endless joy that comes from following in the footsteps of the Buddha,
I have found the destination of my soul, and I am immersed in this frenzy, unable to extricate myself.
Surrounded by the Buddha’s light, I entered a whole new spiritual realm.
