Chapter 128 Seven Stars Cannot Extend Life
"Boom!"
A deafening roar followed, and the entire backyard of the Yuan residence trembled violently. In an instant, countless trees and flowers were reduced to dust.
The Arhat Formation and Lin Fei's Nine Heavens Thunder Formation are both ancient formations, possessing immense power. Their clash seemed to threaten to destroy even the backyard of the Yuan family mansion.
Under the fierce thunder, the illusory image of the Arhat shattered inch by inch. At the same time, the huge golden true energy shield also made a "crackling" sound, unable to bear the weight, and many cracks appeared.
"Pfft!" All eighteen monks coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.
Black smoke billowed from their bodies, as if they had been scorched by lightning.
"Ding!"
"Killing Xu Lin, punishing evil and promoting good, I have gained 6,000 merit points, 6,000 experience points, and 6,000 martial arts cultivation points!"
"Killing Xu Yu, punishing evil and promoting good, I have gained 6,000 merit points, 6,000 experience points, and 6,000 martial arts cultivation points!"
"Killing Xu Bai, punishing evil and promoting good, I have gained 7,000 merit points, 7,000 experience points, and 7,000 martial arts cultivation points!"
……
A series of system notification sounds suddenly rang in Lin Fei's mind.
Although these people were monks who practiced vegetarianism and chanted Buddhist scriptures, they took the initiative to cause trouble and started a fight at the Yuan family's house. According to the system's judgment, they were naturally not good people.
However, the system notification tone did not include the name of Xusheng.
"Huh?" Lin Fei let out a soft exclamation, his gaze sweeping over Xu Sheng, who was lying on the ground—unexpectedly, this monk was quite capable, managing to survive the Nine Heavens Thunder Formation!
As expected, although Xu Sheng was lying on the ground, his body twitched slightly, unlike the other monks who were motionless, and he still seemed to have some breath left.
The monk Xusheng's hands trembled as he pulled a small wooden Buddha statue from his robes. The statue was once incredibly lifelike, but now it was shattered into pieces.
It seems that it was this wooden Buddha statue that saved the life of the monk Xusheng.
He held the wooden Buddha statue in his hands, tears welling in his eyes, looking at the corpses of his companions scattered on the ground: "My fellow disciples, it's my fault, it's all my fault!"
He looked up at Lin Fei, his eyes filled with resentment and venom: "Buddha's enemy! I will fight you to the death for the rest of my life!"
"A fight to the death?" Lin Fei sneered, "That's perfect, I'll send you to the underworld to join your fellow disciples!"
Killing one is the same as killing two. Lin Fei has already killed seventeen monks, so what difference does one more Xu Sheng make?
Moreover, Lin Fei did not believe that Leiyin Temple would be grateful for releasing Monk Xusheng and would remove him from the blacklist.
Since we're already "enemies of Buddhism," let's do what "enemies of Buddhism" should do!
Just as Lin Fei was about to make a move against Monk Xusheng, a figure staggered in from outside the courtyard.
The person who entered was Yuan Daotong's younger sister, Yuan Qingqing. She was the same Yuan Qing who had disguised herself as a man and gone to Xijiang Prefecture with Yuan Daotong that day.
When Lin Fei first saw Yuan Qingqing, he was also startled. He never expected that the boy was actually a girl in disguise.
At this moment, Yuan Qingqing looked flustered and hurried over here.
Yuan Qingqing should have been in the secret chamber protecting Yuan Yuanshan at this moment. Therefore, when Yuan Daotong saw her, a sense of foreboding arose in his heart, and he hurriedly asked, "Qingqing, why are you here? Has something gone wrong with Father?"
"What are you doing here?" Yuan Qingqing was so anxious she was almost crying. "There was an earthquake just now, and it knocked over Father's Seven Star Lamp!"
"What? The Seven Star Lamp has been overturned?" Yuan Daotong was stunned, as if struck by lightning, and muttered to himself, "The Seven Star Lamp has been overturned? The Seven Star Lamp has been overturned?"
He murmured several times, his eyes gradually becoming bloodshot and turning completely red. Lin Fei had never seen Yuan Daotong so distraught before.
"You filthy monk, I'll take your life!" Yuan Daotong suddenly shouted, charging towards the only surviving monk, Xusheng, like a mad beast.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out: "Daotong, stop!"
That voice belonged to Yuan Yuanshan. At this moment, Yuan Yuanshan was still in the secret room, but that did not prevent him from seeing through everything that was happening in the Yuan mansion.
Hearing his father's voice, Yuan Daotong seemed to sober up a bit, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Father, if it weren't for these damned monks, this wouldn't have happened. Let me kill this filthy monk!"
"Let him go!" Yuan Yuanshan sighed deeply. "It's fate, it's destiny! Perhaps it's predestined that my life is coming to an end, and even the Seven Stars cannot continue it."
“Xusheng, I have met your abbot, the Divine Monk Dunan, at Leiyin Temple once. Go back and tell him that fate is hard to defy, and he must not make a mistake!” Yuan Yuanshan’s voice said to Monk Xusheng. “Go and tell your abbot that Mingxin is not someone Leiyin Temple can touch. As for the rest of these people, I will send someone to send them back to Leiyin Temple.”
Having barely escaped with his life, Xu Sheng felt no gratitude whatsoever. Instead, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since the Yuan family is determined to protect this person, I will return to the temple and explain to the abbot. Since the Yuan family intends to be an enemy of Leiyin Temple, I hope Senior Yuan will not regret it!"
"Do you really think my Yuan family is afraid of your Leiyin Temple?" Yuan Yuanshan's voice suddenly grew louder, and he shouted out a single word: "Get out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the illusory body flew into the air and flew out of the Yuan family's backyard.
Yuan Yuanshan paused for a moment before speaking, "Daotong, come to the secret chamber. I have something to tell you. And young Daoist, come along too!"
……
When Lin Fei arrived at the secret chamber and saw Yuan Yuanshan again, he noticed that the death aura emanating from Yuan Yuanshan was significantly stronger than when they had met before.
Even though Lin Fei didn't understand divination and fortune-telling, he had a feeling that Yuan Yuanshan probably wouldn't last more than three to five days.
"Father!" Yuan Daotong burst into tears when he saw Yuan Yuanshan in this state.
“Foolish child, why do you have to do this?” Yuan Yuanshan sighed and said, “My Yuan family is well-versed in divination and numerology. You should know that destiny cannot be defied. My destiny has come to an end. Even with the Seven Stars, it is difficult to continue.”
Although Yuan Yuanshan spoke lightly, his expression was very heavy: "I thought I could hold on for you for a few more years until you formed your Dharma Form and took over my position. It seems that from now on, the heavy burden of the Yuan family will fall entirely on your shoulders!"
