Women Down the Mountain Are Ferocious Beasts
"Go ahead without worry."
Su Muxue patted her chest and assured you, "Go openly and honestly, and those senior monks of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect won't dare to make things difficult for you. However, as for the Immaculate Relic... I don't think they'll give it to you."
"Therefore, your uncle must provide double protection. You use your method, and I'll use mine. After it's done, we'll meet up and leave."
As one of the Seven Great Holy Lands, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is actually on par with the Purple Mansion Holy Land in terms of status.
However, since they Buddhism, Purple Mansion Saintess went to pay her respects openly and legitimately, they wouldn't necessarily kill her.
Therefore, Su Muxue was not worried about Qi Zixiao's safety at all.
"Then let's do as Uncle says."
Qi Zixiao nodded, but then added with some worry, "But Uncle-Master, your method seems a bit too extreme..."
"Hey?"
Su Muxue rolled her eyes. "Why have you suddenly become so timid all day?"
"Just watch with confidence, your uncle will definitely return with a full haul!"
"Let's part ways here."
She transformed into a large monk, winked at Qi Zixiao, and then disappeared from the spot.
"..."
Qi Zixiao blinked and muttered helplessly to herself, "Aunt-Master Su really is... he's been tricking everyone he's been to!"
"But I think I can succeed, right?"
"After all, isn't that how all the novels on Earth are written?"
How do I obtain the Immaculate Relic?
This item is also very important to Buddhism, and it is only when it is used to its maximum effect that it can be put to good use, so it is definitely not handed over under normal circumstances.
It's even less likely that they would willingly hand it over.
But that's under normal circumstances.
Isn't there still an unusual situation?
If it had been two months ago, or even a month ago, Qi Zixiao would have been at her wits' end, not knowing how to succeed.
But now~~~
Qi Zixiao said that her horizons had been broadened by those novels from Earth, and her thinking had also been broadened!
The Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is Buddhism.
What does Buddhism value most?
Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist principles!
Why don't we start from this angle?
She pondered for nearly half an hour before flying towards the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect. Moreover, the Merit Golden Ring behind her head was no longer dim, but became bright, highlighting her beautiful face, making her look like a goddess.
Not long after.
A cluster of temples appeared, stretching to the horizon.
Qi Zixiao hovered in the air and spoke loudly, "Qi Zixiao Mansion has come to pay respects to the eminent monks!"
"Qi Zixiao of the Qi Zixiao Mansion has come to pay his respects to the eminent monks!"
"Qi Zixiao Mansion has come to pay his respects to the eminent monks..."
In an instant, this single sentence, like a chant of Brahmaic Sound, resonated throughout the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect...
Deep within the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, Buddha's Disciple were soaking in the lake, completely at ease.
"These past few days, that damned stench has finally completely dissipated, Qi Zixiao..."
"See you next time, I'll make you pay!!"
He snorted coldly.
However, before the words were even finished...
"Qi Zixiao Mansion has come to pay his respects to the eminent monks..."
Buddha's Disciple: "..."
You dare come to our door?!
He was taken aback, stood up abruptly, and as his magic flowed, the moisture on his body evaporated. He then ran towards a huge temple.
And inside that temple.
A kind-faced old monk was chanting Brahmaic Sound.
On his left and right sides, there were also many senior monks, sitting cross-legged on prayer cushions, all listening attentively.
When Qi Zixiao's voice came...
As the Brahmaic Sound gradually subsided, the old monk's eyes opened and closed, instantly piercing through the vast distance to lock onto Qi Zixiao, and then, he was slightly moved.
"That's... the Merit Golden Ring?!"
"Qi Zixiao, this woman, has such good fortune!"
With a sigh, the old monk clasped his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name. "Amitabha."
"Master!"
Boom!
Just then, the door was pushed open, and the Buddha's Disciple rushed in, hurriedly saying, "Master, I'm here!"
"That Demoness Qi Zixiao has arrived. I implore Master to send someone to capture her."
"Don't be impatient."
The old monk gently shook his head. "She introduced herself as representing the Purple Mansion Holy Land, so we must not be negligent."
"Go and invite her here."
"Ah?"
The Buddha's Disciple objected. "But that Demoness..."
"Um?"
The old monk glanced at them briefly.
"Yes, Master."
The Buddha's Disciple felt a chill run down his spine and, without saying anything more, bowed and withdrew.
Inside the temple, only a group of high-ranking monks remained.
At this moment, someone couldn't help but speak up, "The Purple Mansion Saintess... has been a demon for generations. Judging from what the Buddha's Disciple said, this Qi Zixiao must also be Demoness."
"Junior brother..."
The old monk sighed, "We who cultivate Buddhism focus on cultivating our minds. To make such arbitrary conclusions is not the way we should do."
"Senior brother, this is not me criticizing others, but the Purple Mansion Demoness is infamous. Back then, weren't we both harmed by that Su the Runner more than once?"
"..."
The old monk fell silent.
He could have given her a few words of 'guidance' before, but when Su Muxue was mentioned? That Demoness!!!
The Buddha's Disciple was extremely unwilling, dawdling along the way. It took him quite a while to finally 'fly' to Qi Zixiao's vicinity. When he looked at Qi Zixiao, he rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky, and said with a hint of annoyance, "Come with me!"
"My master wants to see you!"
"Lead the way."
Qi Zixiao spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, the Buddha's Disciple nearly went berserk. "..."
So what if you're the Purple Mansion Saintess?!
I am still a Buddhist Buddha's Disciple of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect School, although I am currently only Lay Buddha's Disciple. But isn't Lay Buddha's Disciple Buddha's Disciple?!
Lead the way? What kind of talk is that?
Do you really think I'm some kind of servant?!
But at this moment, countless monks, both big and small, were coming and going, all watching the two of them.
He couldn't afford to lash out, so he could only land with a sullen face and keep walking forward. "This is a sacred Buddhism; flying is not allowed!"
Qi Zixiao remained silent, lightly touching her forehead to the ground. Then, with graceful steps, she followed behind the Buddha's Disciple, exuding an ethereal aura.
This scene left many monks, both young and old, dumbfounded and very curious.
"Is that the Purple Mansion Saintess?"
"So beautiful! I have never seen such a beautiful woman before..."
"Junior brother, I remember you joined our Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect when you were three years old, right? Have you seen any women all these years?"
"How come I've never seen him before?! Junior brother... I saw him in my dream!"
"..."
"The elders always said that if you are out and about, you must never provoke the Purple Mansion Saintess, because all the Purple Mansion Saintess are Demoness, the kind who eat people. But at this moment, she doesn't seem like Demoness at all..."
"Could it be that what our elders said was wrong?"
"It doesn't seem like it to me..."
"How could Demoness be so beautiful? And so ethereal."
"Stop talking all at once!"
At this moment, an older monk rebuked, "You can know a person's face but not their heart. The women down the mountain are like floods and ferocious beasts; if you encounter them, you must stay away..."
Under the watchful eyes of countless disciples of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, Qi Zixiao remained expressionless. The Merit Golden Ring behind her head radiated boundless light, giving her a new and harmonious appearance. To onlookers, she appeared even more sacred and inviolable.
She was like a celestial being descended to earth, noble, beautiful, and knowledgeable in all things.
Wherever she went, almost all the disciples of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect paid her respects.
In contrast, the Buddha's Disciple leading the way was truly like a 'servant,' and was completely ignored by everyone.
This made the Buddha's Disciple even more dissatisfied, but he couldn't vent his anger, so he could only keep reminding himself not to pay attention and to keep moving forward in silence.
When!
Sudden.
Within the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, the sound of a Buddhist bell shook the heavens and earth, and numerous Buddhist seals and sounds soared into the sky, as if welcoming Qi Zixiao's arrival.
At this moment, the Merit Golden Ring shines even brighter...
Before long, inside the vast temple, the Buddha's Disciple pushed open the door and respectfully walked to the center to bow. "Master, fellow disciples, senior disciples, the Purple Mansion Saintess has arrived."
"Well, please feel free to sit down and listen."
The old monk spoke calmly.
"Yes, Master."
The Buddha's Disciple turned around, glanced at Qi Zixiao, his displeasure evident in his eyes, but he didn't say anything more. He simply walked past her, intending to find a futon to sit down at the 'end of the line'.
but...
Just as he brushed past Qi Zixiao, he noticed that the other person moved several steps to the side and covered their mouth and nose, as if they had smelled some foul odor.
The Buddha's Disciple nearly went berserk. "[○`Д○]!!!!"
"Greetings, Uncle Benxin."
Qi Zixiao behaved impeccably and performed a respectful Daoist salute, revealing no flaws whatsoever. She was simply a perfect young lady from a prominent family, leaving no room for criticism.
However...
Many senior monks, however, did not buy it at all.
Everyone stared at her with an expression of 'I'll just watch you perform quietly,' their eyes filled with disdain.
At the same time, they were all communicating through Divine Sense.
"You're quite the actor!"
"The Purple Mansion Demoness are all masters of acting; never trust her!"
"When we first met Su the Runner, we were much more virtuous than her, but how long did it take? She revealed her true nature and tricked countless people!"
"Snort!"
The old monk sitting at the head of the table is Benxin, the current abbot and Holy Master of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect!
He had a kind face and greeted Qi Zixiao with a slight smile, making him look even more benevolent. "Did your master have something to instruct you on here?"
"That's not the case."
Qi Zixiao's expression was calm, and he looked extremely sacred. "I have come here by chance because I have gained some insights into Buddhist teachings and would like to ask the eminent monks for guidance."
"You dare to speak of Buddhist teachings?!"
Before the senior monks could speak, the Buddha's Disciple couldn't help but ask, "Do you think that just because you've read a few books, you understand Great Vehicle Buddhism and comprehend Buddhist principles?"
"Refrain from Anger and avoid rudeness."
When Benxin spoke, the Buddha's Disciple was momentarily speechless, though his face still showed displeasure, but he dared not speak again.
Are you interested in Buddhism?
After reprimanding the Buddha's Disciple, Benxin smiled at Qi Zixiao and said softly, "Unfortunately, our Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect does not accept female disciples."
"But there is a nunnery 30,000 miles to the west. If you are willing, you can shave your head and become a nun, and from then on, live a life of quiet contemplation and Buddhist practice, severing all worldly ties."
This old monk must be sincere, right?
Upon hearing this, Qi Zixiao immediately began to have doubts.
