Chapter 21 Sweeping Monk

"Master, save me!"

Hearing this, the sweeping monk sighed and said, "I told you before that Master Murong had been practicing our sect's superior martial arts, and his evil spirit had become more and more serious. It had already penetrated deep into his internal organs, and he needed to be reconciled and resolved with compassionate Buddhist teachings. But the master didn't listen and left. Why is he coming back now?"

Because someone out there wants to kill me!
Murong Bo thought.

If it were just Xiao Yuanshan and Qiao Feng, father and son, he could still deal with them if he joined forces with his son Murong Fu.

But now his sneak attack on Li Jie failed, and instead he made a powerful enemy for himself.

Although no one has seen Li Jie's abilities in person, it is rumored that he is not only proficient in magic, but also has extraordinary martial arts. He can beat Yue Lao San into ashes with one palm!

One kick could split Yun Zhonghe in half from more than twenty feet away!

If this skill is real, his strength is even greater than his.

With the help of Xiao Yuanshan and Qiao Feng, even if he joined forces with his son Murong Fu, he would be no match for Li Jie and others.

The glimmer of hope lies in this hidden sweeping monk!
Murong Bo clasped his hands together, knelt in front of the sweeping monk, and said, "Master, what you said earlier has enlightened me. I came back this time to ask you to accept me as a disciple, listen to your teachings, and resolve my anger."

The Sweeping Monk sighed again, realizing that Murong Bo was not truly repentant, but was forced by external factors.

If one does not have a sincere heart, even if one has learned Buddhism, one will not be able to comprehend the true meaning of compassion, and will still not be able to resolve the hostility generated by practicing martial arts.

At this time, Murong Fu arrived and saw his father kneeling in front of an old monk. He hurried forward to support him and said, "Dad, why are you kneeling before this old monk?"

Before Murong Bo could say anything, Xiao Yuanshan and Qiao Feng arrived one after another.

Xiao Yuanshan stared at Murong Bo, his eyes wide open, and said, "Murong Bo, you killed my beloved wife, you deserve my death!"

Murong Bo's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Brother Xiao, I have something to say, do you want to hear it?"

Xiao Yuanshan snorted coldly, "Do you still want me to give up revenge? Absolutely not! You must die today! Feng'er, block his way, don't let this old thief escape."

"Yes!"

Qiao Feng responded and immediately walked behind Murong Bo.

Murong Fu held the sword and faced Qiao Feng to prevent his father from being attacked from both sides.

Just when the two pairs of father and son were in a stalemate, Li Jie arrived.

This is because although he has three hundred years of experience in martial arts, he does not have any powerful light skills.

Moreover, he was unable to perform the art of teleportation in his physical state. In addition, he was the last one to set out, so even though he had the most profound skills, he could not catch up with Xiao Yuanshan and Qiao Feng.

"Murong Bo, I have no grudge against you, why did you attack me?"

While Li Jie was asking questions to Murong Bo, he looked at the sweeping monk.

【Discover the strongest energy! 】

This was the second person with the strongest aura Li Jie met.

He looks plain and thin, but since he appears near the Sutra Repository and even has the most powerful aura, he must be the sweeping monk in the original book!
Murong Bo knew that he and Li Jie had already made enemies, and it was useless to talk about it, so he said directly: "Although you and I have no grudges in the past, your ability to know the past is very disadvantageous to my Murong family. If I can't kill you, my Murong family will have no hope of success."

Murong Fu, who was standing by, heard this and felt extremely regretful when he thought about how he had previously tried to stop his father's plan and even hindered the Murong family's cause.

Li Jie chuckled a few times and said, "Why should you be afraid of what others say about what you have done? If you were afraid of what others would say, why did you do it in the first place? You dare to do it but not take responsibility for it, you are a cowardly rat!"

If you dare to act and take responsibility, you might even be the most powerful evil person.

But now, even with such a deep obsession, Murong Bo's aura is still neither righteous nor evil, just like his method in the early and middle stages.

"Shut up!"

Murong Bo became furious and said, "If my son had not stepped forward to help and saved your life, you would have died long ago. How can you still speak nonsense in front of me?" Murong Fu felt even more ashamed when he heard this.

I originally wanted to save a helper, but unexpectedly I saved an enemy.

Li Jie laughed and said, "That's your fate."

In fact, with his more than 300 years of skills protecting his body, even if he was not prepared before, he would at most be injured if he was hit by Murong Bo. Murong Fu helped him before, but it could not be said to be saving his life.

"you!"

Murong Bo was so angry that he gnashed his teeth and was speechless for a moment.

Li Jie turned to Xiao Yuanshan and said, "Mr. Xiao, I have a grudge against this man now. Are you going to fight me? If not, I will come here in person."

Xiao Yuanshan said: "Although he attacked you, his son saved you, and you didn't get hit in the end. This revenge is dispensable, but my wife is really dead, and this revenge must be avenged!"

In the original novel, Xiao Yuanshan was fooled by Murong Bo's story about Murong's family background, and his desire for revenge was really shaken. But now Xiao Yuanshan has not listened to those tricks, and his heart is still filled with four words:

I want revenge!

Murong Bo knew that with Li Jie present, he would not be able to persuade Xiao Yuanshan even if he had a eloquent tongue.

Death is not scary.

But his death was meaningless, especially his death made no contribution to the Murong family's plan to revive Dayan. This was something Murong Bo could never accept.

Even if I die, I must push forward the ancestral cause!
If you can't advance the great cause, you must not die!
You must survive, and survive at all costs before advancing your great cause!

Murong Bo thought of this and hurriedly shouted to the sweeping monk, "Master, save me!"

Xiao Yuanshan and Qiao Feng looked at the Sweeping Monk in surprise. They felt that this man was just an ordinary old monk with no martial arts skills. He seemed like he could be blown down by a gust of wind. How could he be the person Murong Bo needed help?
The sweeping monk sighed slightly and said, "Please don't start a war. It's better to talk calmly."

Li Jie said: "Master, you are kind and compassionate. I admire you! But don't let such a cunning person take advantage of your kindness."

The current situation is quite different from the original work.

When Murong Fu heard Li Jie describe his father as a cunning person, he angrily said, "Please speak with more respect!"

Li Jie ignored him.

The sweeping monk suggested, "I just heard that you were attacked by Murong. This could be a big or small cause and effect, but it is easier to resolve than the cause and effect of Xiao. I will take your attack on behalf of Murong, and from now on, your account with Murong will be written off. What do you think?"

Xiao Yuanshan and Qiao Feng were shocked when they heard this. What ability did this old monk have to dare to take on Li Jie's moves!
Li Jie said: "Master, are you the emperor of the world? Or the judge of the underworld?"

The sweeping monk was slightly stunned, and shook his head, saying, "I am just a sweeping monk. I am a mortal. Naturally, I am not the Supreme Lord, nor am I the messenger of the underworld."

Li Jie said: "But what you are doing now, controlling the power of life and death, is exactly what the emperor of the human world and the judge of the underworld can do."

"This……"

The Sweeping Monk always felt that there was something wrong with what he said, but he couldn't say anything to refute it.

For many years he had been practicing martial arts and sweeping the floor, only comprehending the scriptures and not participating in debates. Therefore, no matter how high his realm was or how strong his skills were, he was unable to answer in this urgent situation.

If you can't say anything to refute, your momentum will be weakened.

Li Jie continued, "Master, I don't want to embarrass you. As the saying goes, this is a matter of the martial arts world. Let's use the martial arts world to solve this matter. Whoever has the bigger fist will be the referee here."

In short, let's fight!
The sweeping monk put down his broom, clasped his hands together, and said, "Donor, please help."

"it is good!"

Li Jie's eyes focused, he raised his arms slightly, and his whole body suddenly made a crackling sound.

The true energy surged, and the strong wind it created swept in all directions with him as the center, carrying sand and rocks everywhere!
Qiao Feng, Xiao Yuanshan, Murong Bo, Murong Fu and the others had to squint their eyes and step back one after another. They were deeply shocked and could not help but marvel that there was such a powerful and profound true Qi in the world!
Is it human?
Inhuman!
