Chapter 117: Outer Gate Guardian Bear Master
Behind Shi'e, a bald figure with a dragon wrapped around his chest appeared.
Behind the middle-aged man, the bloody statue with three heads and six arms and the dragon-entangled statue behind Shi E collided violently.
The air around was shaking violently.
Lu Yi stepped on the flowing wind and retreated quickly.
He passed by Panman, snatched Panman from the hands of those barbarian soldiers, and retreated with him at full speed.
A ball of fire mixed with gold and red shot up into the sky from Shi'e's side. With a loud bang, the earth shook violently. Countless mud and tree fragments flew in all directions, making a 'whooshing' sound like arrows.
Le Shan lay on the ground, roared at the top of his lungs, and then was swept up by the impact wave and thrown more than a mile away.
Fortunately, he inherited the Blood Soul Temple and had a strong body, several times stronger than ordinary so-called martial arts masters. This attack only made his injuries worse, and he vomited more than a dozen mouthfuls of blood, but his life was not in danger.
Most of the hundred or so barbarian soldiers brought by Pan Man were blown to death on the spot with broken bones and tendons. Only the thirty or so strongest ones vomited blood and were blown far away by the shock wave. They fell to the ground unconscious with blood all over their bodies.
Lu Yi led Pan Man to flee more than two miles. When the storm behind them subsided, he looked back to where the fight had just taken place.
A large pit with a diameter of seven or eight feet and a depth of three feet was blown up on the spot. The walls of the pit were smooth, and traces of dark golden aura and traces of bloody poisonous gas mixed together and continuously spewed out from the walls of the pit.
The two auras collided with each other, making a continuous "hissing" sound, and then quickly neutralized and annihilated.
Shi E and the middle-aged man stood face to face on both sides of the pit. Their eyes were bloodshot and they stared at each other fiercely.
It was obvious that the middle-aged man suffered a great loss.
After all, Shi E had attacked someone from behind in an extremely dishonorable way - from this point of view, Lu Yi felt that this Vajra Temple, although it had the sign of Buddhism, did not seem to be a legitimate force.
Shi E poked a bloody hole the size of an egg on the back of the middle-aged man with his finger.
A trace of blood-red flame covered the wound, burning the flesh near the wound with a hissing sound. The middle-aged man had obviously used a secret technique to suppress the injury.
The clothes on Shi E's upper body were torn to pieces, revealing his skinny body.
Beneath his skin, wisps of golden light flowed, as if he was made of gold, exuding an indestructible and powerful aura.
There was a shallow bloodstain on his left shoulder, obviously caused by the sword light of the bloody statue with three heads and six arms.
These were the only injuries on his body.
A sneak attack seems to be an advantage.
"May Buddha have mercy on me. I am Shi'e, nice to meet you, fellow disciple." Shi'e smiled, put his hands together, and saluted towards the middle-aged man without any worldly airs.
"Demon Jie Cangsheng, Blood Soul Temple, Xuetuo Luo, hello senior brother." The middle-aged man put his left hand behind his back, his five fingers twitching violently, and his right palm stood upright in front of his chest, returning a salute to Shi E.
After coughing, Xuetuo Luo sneered, "The records in our sect's books are indeed true. The Vajra Temple is close to the devil's way. I have indeed witnessed it today."
Shi E smiled kindly and said in a gentle voice, "The Great Vajra Temple is the orthodox Buddhist sect. Anything else is nothing but slander. Junior brother, you must not believe it."
Xuetuo Luo laughed twice, then he took out a golden metal bottle from the secret pocket on his waist, opened the bottle cap, took out a blood-colored pill, put it into his mouth and started chewing it.
Shi E didn't say anything. He smiled and stared at Xuetuo Luo intently.
The faint golden light on his body was flowing faster and faster. Lu Yi had a vague feeling that Shi E seemed to want to "take advantage of his weakness to kill him". As long as Xuetuo Luo showed any sign of weakness, a fatal blow would be waiting for him.
Tsk, it feels like Shi E doesn't even seem like he comes from a famous and upright family.
There seems to be something wrong with this Vajra Temple. The records in the Blood Soul Temple may actually make sense.
There was a dull sound of breaking wind in the distance.
Two burly men in blood-red battle robes crossed the rivers and hills and were approaching this side rapidly.
The golden light on Shi'e's body suddenly retreated. He sighed, put his palms together and bowed deeply to Xuetuo Luo: "Buddha has mercy on me. May I ask you, Junior Brother, why did you disregard the secret agreement of the three religions and brazenly kill the disciples of this temple?"
Shi E drooped his eyelids and said gently, "If you don't give me an explanation today, I can't blame you for asking the senior master to go to the entrance of the Blood Soul Temple to ask for justice."
With two muffled "thumps", two sturdy men wearing blood-red battle robes, who were obviously in the same group as Xuetuo Luo, fell heavily to the ground, one on the left and one on the right to protect Xuetuo Luo.
A big man said coldly: "Xue Tuoluo, was it this damn bald guy who injured you? Join forces and kill him?"
In the woods in the distance, a mighty blood energy turned into visible blood energy smoke, rising more than ten feet high. Under the blood energy smoke, a faint golden light could be seen flickering.
There is no doubt that someone from the Mahavira Temple is hiding in that woods.
Lu Yi guessed that it was most likely Lu Yu who was hiding in the woods - and only Lu Yu, due to his identity as Lord Tian'en, would not be able to appear in public.
The three Blood Soul Temple disciples fell silent.
After a moment's silence, Xuetuo Luo pointed at Leshan who was lying on the ground in the distance and spitting blood.
Later, a sturdy man in a blood-stained robe rushed over, grabbed Leshan and rushed back.
Lu Yi also held Pan Man in his arms and strode to Shi E's side.
Shi'e looked at Lu Yu and Shi'e, and also took out a metal medicine bottle from his belt, took out two dark gold pills with a strange fragrance, and handed them over with a smile: "Well done, you can still stand so steadily after fighting against the elders and masters of the Blood Soul Temple. You are worthy of being my disciple of the Great Vajra Temple."
Lu Yi took the pill with a smile, gave one to Pan Man, and swallowed one himself.
The pill melted in his mouth, turning into a strong and violent hot current that swept through his body. In a short period of time, the internal pain caused by the beating from Xuetuo Luo quickly disappeared, and the lost physical strength was rapidly restored.
Lu Yi only felt that his whole body was full of energy. If he sat cross-legged and practiced his energy at this moment, he might even be able to open up a few more acupoints.
With a 'crack' sound, Pan Man, who had just had several bones broken and was seriously injured, groaned and slowly stood up relying on his own strength.
He reached out and patted Lu Yu, and said in a deep voice: "Good brother, you just saved me, I will remember this favor... Well, tomorrow I will send a few more trucks of local specialties over, don't refuse."
Lu Yi patted Pan Man's arm and said nothing.
Xuetuo Luo also took out a bloody pill and stuffed it into Leshan's mouth.
Le Shan spat out several mouthfuls of blood, and a new master from the Blood Soul Temple came to help him adjust his bones and give him massage. After all these services, Le Shan, whose four limbs were broken, stood up tremblingly, gritted his teeth, and glared at Lu Yi and Pan Man across the pit.
Xuetuo Luo then spoke: "Brother Shi'e, I came to look for my nephew Leshan, and I saw that your disciples from the Vajra Temple had joined forces to beat and injure Leshan."
Lu Yi coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "This senior doesn't know that it was Leshan who caused trouble for us first."
Pan Man on the side said coldly: "Leshan prevented us from purchasing the original ruins of the Great Vajra Temple in Gaojing. He also lured Junior Brother Lu Yi to the suburbs and kept saying that he wanted to kill Junior Brother Lu Yi."
Pan Man bowed to Shi E and said, "Master, countless people in Baimafang witnessed this incident. There is absolutely no shortage of witnesses."
Shi E smiled at the people of the Blood Soul Temple and said, "So, it is your disciples of the Blood Soul Temple who maliciously provoked my disciples of the Vajra Temple and obstructed my Vajra Temple from rebuilding the outer courtyard of Gaojing...Does the Blood Soul Temple want to violate the secret agreement of the three religions and go to war with my Vajra Temple?"
The expressions of Xuetuo Luo and the other two suddenly changed.
Xuetuo Luo gritted his teeth, pointed at Lu Yi and shouted, "Are you a disciple of the Vajra Temple?"
Lu Yi took out the pale golden medal that Shi E had given him a few days ago and shook it in his hand.
Xuetuo Luo turned around and slapped Le Shan on the face. He shouted, "Didn't my senior brother explain to you what the secret agreement of the three religions is? When disciples of the three religions walk outside, each one does his own thing and does not infringe on each other. Anyone who violates the agreement will be killed! You, you, you, who gave you the courage?"
Le Shan was furious and shouted: "Uncle Master, who knew that Lu Yu and Pan Man were disciples of the Vajra Temple? They didn't reveal their identities!"
He stamped his feet and said, "Besides, it's not my intention to cause trouble for Lu Yi... Before, I invited Lu Yi to join my imperial guards. He and I have no grudges against each other, so why would I want to kill him for no reason?"
Blinking his eyes, Le Shan sneered, "The one who asked me to kill him was the guardian of the outer sect of the Vajra Temple, Xiong Taidou."
Le Shan suddenly clapped his hands and laughed: "That's right, it was Xiong Taidou who revealed his identity to me, saying that he was a disciple of the Vajra Temple and that I owed him a favor, so he wanted me to help him kill Lu Yi!"
Le Shan laughed loudly and said, "Lu Yi killed Xiong Dingtian, the junior of Xiong Taidou. Xiong Taidou asked me to help him avenge the murder. This is only natural. You are all disciples of the Vajra Temple. This is a rebellion among you, not me who took the initiative to destroy the secret agreement of the three religions!"
Shi E looked at Lu Yi with a stiff face.
Xuetuo Luo and his two fellow disciples laughed wildly and danced with excitement: "Thief Baldy, this is a rebellion among the disciples of your Vajra Temple. This kind of thing cannot be controlled by the secret agreement of the Three Religions."
"Haha, I never thought I could see such a good show today."
Xuetuo Luo whistled, and the three of them turned around and left with Le Shan: "Let's leave this matter alone. If you insist on reporting it to the high-level officials of the three religions, that's up to you. But the cause and effect of this matter are already clear. Even if it's the elders of the three religions, they can't blame us for taking action today."
Looking at the people from the Blood Soul Temple going away, Lu Yi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Uncle Master, Xiong Taidou is actually a disciple of our Vajra Temple?"
Lu Yu's mind was in a mess.
On the previous night of ghost hunting in the imperial city, nearly 20,000 assassins raided the Prime Minister’s residence, and the leader was Xiong Taidou.
The army of death warriors led by Xiong Taidou was wiped out by Lu Yu, who led the Canglang Cavalry and more than 10,000 heavy cavalry of the imperial guards.
After a fierce battle, only Xiong Taidou escaped alone.
And Xiong Taidou is actually the outer guardian of the Great Vajra Temple?
What the hell is this?
Shi E was silent for a long time before he softly chanted "Buddha, have mercy on you!"
"It's a long story."
"When the time comes, you will know it naturally without me saying anything."
