Chapter 1249: Chapter 1248: Shariputra
His words left the people of the Suru Palace speechless.
The hearts of people from other factions couldn’t help but be awed by Qin Hao, even though it was clearly he who was desecrating their faith. He turned around and gave them a lecture—truly shaless.
However, Qin Hao’s words were also well-founded. So individuals in Buddhist branches claim to follow the Buddha, yet secretly commit disgraceful acts.
“Sophistry, how our Buddhist people act is for the Buddha to judge, not for you to preach,” Zhou Ning from Suru Palace snorted coldly.
Qin Hao chuckled: “How I do things now is naturally for the Buddha to judge as well, without needing your preaching.”
Goddamn…
“The Buddha is our Buddhist saint, our faith. Do we have the right to lecture you?”
At that mont, the Buddha statue where Qin Hao stood suddenly changed. Layer after layer fell off, shocking everyone present. What was going on?
Within a few minutes, the surface of the Buddha’s figure completely shed, revealing a harmonious golden light shining forth, illuminating the entire Bright Hall.
Qin Hao didn’t expect such a change, but this light was not aggressive, instead feeling very comforting when it shone on the body.
Soon, a new statue appeared before everyone, and at the top of this statue was a bead, from which thousands of rays were emanating.
Qin Hao was the first to respond, swiftly grabbing the bead and storing it in his storage space.
Only then did the people below react: “Damn, is that the legendary Shariputra?”
“It’s definitely Shariputra; I can feel it,” said an elderly monk from Suru Palace, trembling with excitent.
“Shariputra, huh? Legend has it that it is a treasure produced after the Buddha’s nirvana. Didn’t expect the legend to be true; Shariputra indeed exists.”
“This statue seems like the legendary Bright Bodhisattva. Could Shariputra have been produced from his nirvana? Or was Shariputra his obtained treasure?”
“That Shariputra was taken by Mr. Hao Tian.”
…
Instantly, the eyes of the Suru Mountain’s people turned red: “Put down the Shariputra, or you won’t get out of the Bright Hall!”
Qin Hao laughed disdainfully: “If I want to leave, you can’t stop . Besides, this Shariputra isn’t your possession. Look at your expressions now—they’re hardly those of a Buddhist, more like those shaming the Buddha.”
His words brought so clarity to the people of Suru Palace, but envy still flickered in many of their eyes.
“This is Shariputra, originally a Buddhist item. We hope Mr. Hao Tian can return it to our Suru Palace,” said Zhou Ning, looking at him with an indifferent tone.
Qin Hao glanced at him dismissively: “It is indeed a Buddhist item, but not specifically yours at Suru Palace. Every Buddhist in the world constitutes part of Buddhism, and I am an extrely fervent devotee, so I count as part of Buddhism.”
Damn, you truly have no sha.
At this mont, a strong warrior from Suru Palace spoke: “Why waste words with him? Take action. This Shariputra is our Buddhist sacred relic and must not fall into others’ hands.”
Instantly, a dozen figures moved towards Qin Hao. It wasn’t just people from Suru Palace but also those from the Holy Martial Dynasty.
Qin Hao used the Seven Skillful Steps, his figure instantaneously disappearing from the spot and appearing outside the Bright Hall.
“You guys have fun; I’m not sticking around,” he remarked.
Outside the Bright Hall, Qin Hao ascended his flying carriage, with Song Jiaxin, Ji Sitong, and others already aboard.
The carriage flew away at an extre speed, heading east.
The people from Suru Palace flew outside, watching Qin Hao flee, and one of them shouted, “Chase him, Shariputra is our Buddhist sacred relic; retrieve it at all costs.”
The people of Suru Palace began pursuing Qin Hao, hesitating a bit before Holy Martial Dynasty mbers joined the chase.
On the David Dynasty side, Wei Xianyun watched Qin Hao’s departure direction, a fluctuating gleam in her eyes.
“Princess, should we chase them?” the golden-armored general beside her asked.
Wei Xianyun shook her head slightly: “No need.”
“It’s said Shariputra alone can save the empress,” the golden-armored general hesitated, speaking in a soft voice.
Wei Xianyun: “Let’s go!”
…
Half an hour later, Qin Hao’s carriage had flown nearly a thousand miles, with the Azure Luan and Firebird exerting all their strength again. Additionally, Qin Hao activated the acceleration Formation on the carriage, making its speed very fast, not slower than that of Transcendent Realm experts.
The people from Suru Mountain pursued relentlessly, along with those from the Holy Martial Dynasty and a few powerful Loose Cultivators, aiming for potential profit.
“If you don’t hand over Shariputra, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, we at Suru Palace will never forgive you,” an old monk from Suru Palace roared.
Qin Hao: “A bunch of shaless old fools; talk to when you’ve caught up.”
After saying this, he took out two Top-grade Rejuvenation Elixirs and tossed them into the mouths of the Azure Luan and Firebird, instantly replenishing their Spiritual Energy completely, with an abundance filling their bodies, making them even faster.
Suru Palace’s people launched Divine Skills attacks, attempting to destroy Qin Hao’s carriage, but few attacks could touch the carriage. Even those that did were easily deflected by Qin Hao.
Song Jiaxin, Ji Sitong, and the five maids felt uneasy; this was terrifying—they had never been chased by Extre Realm or Transcendent Realm experts, and now they faced a whole group.
Young Master, you are certainly a monster, provoking so many people at once.
Song Jiaxin, Ji Sitong, and those five people turned pale, their faces sowhat white, as the pursuers’ montum was overwhelming.
Qin Hao saw their expressions and spoke: “Don’t worry; you’ll get used to it in the future.”
“Pfft”
Song Jiaxin and the other won nearly spat old blood.
Get used to it? Only you could say such a thing.
Qin Hao: “You guys go practice; let handle them.”
They couldn’t practice at all, fearing those pursuers might catch up and kill them at any mont.
However, after a day, Song Jiaxin and others got sowhat accustod. Although those pursuers remained, they couldn’t close the distance, only maintaining it.
Qin Hao looked at them and said: “Go practice; it looks like we’ll be escaping for a few more days.” As he finished speaking, he took out two more Top-grade Rejuvenation Elixirs for the two spirit beasts.
Even with Top-quality Rejuvenation Elixirs sustaining them, the two spirit beasts were tiring, suffering exhaustion of the mind.
Qin Hao didn’t rest for a night, with the Suru Palace’s pursuers still on his trail.
Thus, Qin Hao flew for five days and nights straight, with a dozen people still chasing him, including seven or eight from Suru Palace, several from the Holy Martial Dynasty, and one or two powerful Loose Cultivators.
At this ti, Qin Hao’s carriage’s Azure Bird and Firebird were fatigued beyond asure. Although their Spiritual Energy was abundant, their ntal exhaustion was extre, making their speed two or three tis slower than two days prior.
“His carriage is almost done for; with a bit more effort, we’ll catch up,” spoke a Transcendent Realm expert from Suru Mountain.
