Unfortunately, Situ Haokong's plan was doomed to fail.

His actions were predicted by Xuankong and easily resolved.

Knowing that there was no hope, Situ Haokong simply left with a dark face.

"Mr. Lin, we meet again."

Xuankong greeted Lin Jichen with a smile.

Lin Jichen replied calmly: "Master Xuankong is here to rob people too?"

Xuankong smiled and shook his head, pacing around: "No, no, Master Lin is wrong. Shengyuan is a Buddhist, and Master Lin agrees with this, so how can you say that I am here to rob people?"

Lin Jichen sneered and was no longer polite, saying: "Master Xuankong, don't bother with me. Shengyuan wanted to kill my Taoist partner, but I defeated him. His life is not something that anyone can save. If you want to take it by force, just do it. Don't think that my master is in seclusion and Tianyan Sword Sect can be bullied!"

This matter is no longer a personal grudge between him and Shengyuan. Obviously, because Situ Haokong and Xuankong joined at the same time, this matter has been upgraded to the dignity of the sect.

If anyone can come to make them retreat, then the Sword Sect will lose face. Everyone will think that your Sword Sect is easy to bully, and you, the new leader, have no strength and can only be a coward.

Lin Jichen would never let Jianzong retreat in his hands. He would not hesitate to fight again today.

There is a saying that goes, "One punch is better than a hundred punches!"

Seeing the tense atmosphere on the field, Xuankong shook his head helplessly and said with emotion: "Mr. Lin is worthy of being the disciple of Master Leng. Not only is his talent as unparalleled as your master, but his character and temperament are also so similar to your master. Jianzong is lucky to have a junior like you. If Shengyuan had your mind and enlightenment, I would also like him to take over as the abbot of Tianyin Temple. It's a pity that he is too narrow-minded and his Taoism is not firm, which led to the disaster today."

Speaking of this, Xuankong sighed and looked at Shengyuan. There was a trace of pity under his turbid eyes, but it finally turned into a sigh.

"Forget it, Shengyuan, as a Buddhist disciple, you have fallen into the devil's way and killed innocent people. You are guilty of great sins. As the supreme master of Buddhism, I want you to pay for your sins today. I hope you can return to the right path in the next life and don't make mistakes again."

After saying that, Xuankong waved his sleeves, and a golden Buddha light flashed. Shengyuan's life was completely frozen, and his flesh and blood turned into ashes, leaving only a pile of bones.

Until his death, Shengyuan's eyes were full of disbelief. He thought Xuankong would take his talent for Buddhist cultivation into consideration and take him back, and then punish him a few times, and then continue to cultivate him vigorously.

He even thought about the future of revenge. He returned to Buddhism and practiced hard. One day, when he was in charge of Buddhism, he would find Lin Jichen to settle accounts.

But he didn't expect that Xuankong would kill him with his own hands, and he was merciless and killed him with one blow.

Even his flesh and blood were completely crushed, leaving him no chance of resurrection.

Even if Yun Lanyi took action now, it would be useless.

Lin Jichen did not expect Xuankong to make this choice in the end and kill Shengyuan with his own hands.

But he soon figured out that Xuankong's behavior seemed cruel, but in fact it was helpless.

First of all, Shengyuan was guilty of heinous crimes and deserved to be killed. Secondly, Lin Jichen refused to give in. Xuankong could indeed take people away by force, but the price was to completely fall out with the Sword Sect.

And it would leave many people accusing Buddhism. After all, Buddhism would not listen to any explanation of this matter, which would greatly reduce the image of Buddhism.

Finally, Shengyuan himself became a demon with a thought, and his Buddhist heart was unstable, which was the reason why Xuankong finally chose to give up on him.

If he had always been devoted to Buddhism and had a firm stand, even if he risked his old face, Xuankong would be willing to keep this extremely talented disciple and train him well in the future.

But who made Shengyuan want to die and choose to join the magic way? This is undoubtedly a traitorous act.

No matter how much Xuankong admired Shengyuan, he could no longer believe in his loyalty to Buddhism.

Instead of doing so, keeping him would only cause trouble. Killing him with his own hands would give the world an explanation, calm the matter down, and greatly improve the credibility of Buddhism.

Killing two birds with one stone.

Seeing this, Lin Jichen had to admire the courage and shrewdness of Xuankong, an old man in the world. He used the seemingly most ruthless means to do what the world thought was the most affectionate, and also stopped the world from talking.

He guessed that Xuankong's purpose of coming here was actually this. He was not here to protect Shengyuan at all, but to kill him with his own hands.

Because he had to kill him with his own hands, otherwise killing others would have completely different meanings.

After getting rid of Shengyuan, Xuankong did not rush to leave, but asked Lin Jichen: "Mr. Lin, Shengyuan has been sent to the Western Paradise by me. Are you satisfied?"

Xuankong's words seemed redundant, but in fact they were forcing Lin Jichen to back down, admitting in disguise that the matter was over and no longer cared about it and could no longer hold on to it.

Although Lin Jichen saw through his thoughts, he could only accept it. Could it be that people would sacrifice their relatives for the sake of justice?, and said that he was not in place yet, so he resurrected Shengyuan and killed him again.

"Master Xuankong personally eliminated this cancer of the Eight Desolations, and I naturally agree with it. I believe that from today, the matter of Shengyuan can be settled, and no one will blame Buddhism anymore. Master can go back and rest assured. The show is over, and we, the audience, should also leave tactfully. Goodbye."

Lin Jichen deliberately called Shengyuan a cancer, and hinted that Xuankong deliberately acted in front of him for the world to see.

After he finished speaking, he signaled Ji Tongyin and Yun Lanyi to disappear from the spot in an instant.

Xuankong was left there, shaking his head and regretting, not knowing whether it was the embarrassment of being exposed by the juniors or the helplessness of being at his wit's end.

In short, he, the supreme master of Buddhism, was made a little emo by Lin Jichen's words...

Little did he know that after Lin Jichen walked away, he was also scared.

If the old monk gets angry and chooses to teach him a lesson, he really can't stop him.

Leng Feiyan also said that although she is considered the strongest cultivator in the world, Xuankong's strength has always been a mystery. He has always been hiding and rarely takes action.

But Leng Feiyan said that Xuankong gave her the greatest pressure. If she really fights with him, she believes that her chance of winning is only 60% at most.

Lin Jichen is definitely not his opponent now, such a big boss of Buddhism that even the master is a little afraid of.

Fortunately, the old monk did not take action, and he felt much more at ease.

"Husband~"

Seeing that the light bulb was gone, Yun Lanyi, who had been missing her husband for a long time, finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to throw herself into Lin Jichen's arms.

Lin Jichen also hugged the other party tenderly, as if he had been away for a long time.

But he didn't expect that Ji Tongyin, who came from behind, happened to see this scene.

The two were a little embarrassed and were about to separate. Ji Tongyin forced a smile and said, "Sorry, I came at the wrong time."

Lin Jichen then opened his other arm and waved at her, "No, you came at the right time."

Ji Tongyin blushed when she heard this, but she still walked over obediently, and she and Yun Lanyi leaned on Lin Jichen's arms on the left and right.

At this point, the art has been completed!
