Chapter 668: Chapter 649: On the Golden Hall, Striking Straight at Xuan Kong

Xuan Kong has slain the Three Corpses, and everyone witnessed it personally; it cannot be hidden.

The three Great Powers of the Buddhist sect must acknowledge this.

Once you acknowledge it, the basic theory of the Slaying of the Three Corpses is set up.

Xuan Kong was indeed a monk before, however, ever since he slew the Three Corpses, he has strayed from the Buddhist sect. What does soone who strays from the Buddhist sect count as?

A Buddhist renegade!

Demon Path!

You three Great Powers of the Buddhist sect have co from far away to uphold justice for the Demon Path, don’t you find it ridiculous?

Your Majesty’s eyes slightly brightened—this is a good breakthrough!

Indeed, the older ginger becos, the hotter it gets.

The Seventh Prince also breathed a sigh of relief.

Master Zhide said, “Amitabha, the Buddhist sect is vast and capable of saving all beings. How can one sentence of yours determine who is Buddha and who is demon? Even past demons can beco today’s Buddha, even today’s demons can beco future Buddhas. You hold a high position yet are so obstinate; it’s no wonder the Dahuang Dynasty has such a rebellious act!”

Upon hearing these words, Song Lifu felt troubled.

He is not a mber of the Buddhist sect, but he has heard the phrase “the Buddhist sect is vast, saving all beings” too many tis.

He is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice; every day, there are heinous cases in various provinces, and the Buddhist sect interferes daily. Their rhetoric always includes the vastness of Buddhism, the saving of all beings, laying down the butcher’s knife, and instantly becoming Buddha…

Others find these words glorious and grand, but he, being in charge of criminal law, finds them annoying.

Arguing with these stubborn old monks is tough.

They have nothing better to do all day, playing this tune.

Master Miaoyu also intoned with an Amitabha: “Your Majesty should know, water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. If Your Majesty is benevolent, then heaven and earth will be benevolent; if Your Majesty is ruthless, then chaos will reign. This ti, Your Majesty has detained the Primordial Spirit of high monks, already angering both heaven and man, and has further imprisoned over two hundred innocent monks from Tunyun Temple in the Heavenly Prison. Is this what a benevolent ruler would do? I advise Your Majesty to pull back from the cliff! Do not act willfully!”

Your Majesty’s heart burned like wildfire!

Coldly glaring at Master Miaoyu.

Master Miaoyu held her hands to her chest, her eyes filled with Buddhist light.

If anyone else dared to speak to him like this, they would be executed and their family punished in no ti.

But Master Miaoyu is not an ordinary person.

She is the abbess of Luohua Temple.

Luohua Temple is no ordinary nunnery!

Suddenly, the palace door was gently pushed open, and the Chief Eunuch reported: “Your Majesty, Fifth Rank Inspection Envoy Li Chengnian requests an audience outside the palace!”

Your Majesty’s heart jumped fiercely…

Li Chengnian!

This matter arose because of him once it’s dissected!

At Tunyun Temple’s mourning hall, he had a fierce argunt with the monks without diminishing Imperial prestige. Can he handle today’s situation?

“Announce!”

The word ‘announce’ traveled through the long corridor, passed on by relays, and reached outside the palace gate.

Lin Xiaosu smiled lightly: “Qing Ying, wait here. I’m going to get promoted!”

This voice was Secret Transmission.

Qing Ying’s face showed a tumultuous expression; inside, her heart was turbulent. If she ignored her position, she really wanted to retort to him: “You’ are too arrogant! If you can get promoted today, that would be seeing a ghost…”

Lin Xiaosu strode in, entering Wenling Hall: “Your subject, Li Chengnian, pays respects to Your Majesty!”

Your Majesty nodded slowly: “Li Aiqing, you ca just in ti; these masters are here regarding the matter of Xuan Kong, of which you are most clear. Speak to the masters about it.”

“Your subject follows the decree!” Lin Xiaosu turned to the three masters: “What do the three masters seek?”

Seven words, lightly spoken, clearly lacking respect towards the masters.

Fortunately, the three masters were all eminent monks and did not stoop to his level. They reiterated the matter, essentially stating the Buddhist sect’s compassion, would not abandon fellow Buddhists, and the Imperial Family should be compassionate, not annihilate completely. Master Xuan Kong’s body is destroyed; his Primordial Spirit should be returned, and so on…

Lin Xiaosu listened quietly without expressing an opinion.

When Master Xuanfeng finished speaking, three pairs of compassionate eyes gathered on Lin Xiaosu’s face.

To them, it was the first encounter, but to him, it was not unknown.

Everyone knew that the young official before them was the one who led Tunyun Temple to disaster.

But the three were eminent monks and could not speak harshly to him.

“Your Majesty!” Lin Xiaosu turned towards Your Majesty: “The three masters show compassion today, and Your Majesty is also a benevolent emperor facing a dilemma. Your subject requests an order: how about leaving Master Xuan Kong’s Primordial Spirit to for disposal?”

Everyone was taken aback simultaneously.

Especially Huo Gang.

What is going on with Li Chengnian?

He was the one overseeing this matter and was extrely firm regarding the Heart Pavilion issue. Why is he talking about compassion today?

Although Master Xuan Kong’s villainous monk’s body is destroyed and his Primordial Spirit can’t cause much turmoil, he is certainly a senior figure in the Heart Pavilion, holding great secrets of the Heart Pavilion. To hand it over just like that would be a pity, not to ntion that the Royal Family’s already captured prisoner’s Primordial Spirit is being directly compromised because of the three eminent monks’ visit, which is also a major blow to the Royal Family’s face.

The Seventh Prince’s face was solemn as water.

Song Lifu showed the sa expression.

In the hall, there was only one person whose tension slowly eased, being Right grandmaster Li Heping, the epito of seniority and steadiness. The more severely the high monks spoke, the greater his internal pressure; now, with soone imnsely trusted by Your Majesty present and showing a conciliatory stance, his pressure greatly reduced.

The hearts of the three eminent monks in the hall were also slightly relieved, showing even more kindness.

Your Majesty took a deep breath: “The matter of Xuan Kong originated with Li Aiqing; if Li Aiqing wishes to handle the aftermath, it is permissible… Huo Gang!”

“Present!”

“Hand over Xuan Kong’s Primordial Spirit to Li Aiqing for disposal!”

“…Yes!”

Huo Gang raised his hand and took out a golden cage from his waist.

In the golden cage, a fragnted silhouette.

This cage, the God-locking Cage.
