Chapter 69: Now Calling Me "Daoyou"?

Chapter 69: Now Calling Me "Daoyou"? (Updated)

"you……"

General Xu was dumbfounded and could hardly believe his ears.

Li Jing and Yin Shiniang also widened their eyes and looked at Yang Ling in disbelief.

The wealthy businessman in their eyes seemed so strange at this moment.

Yang Ling didn't waste any words. He just stretched out his hand and flicked it lightly. The Sky-Howling Dog, which had been waiting for a long time with its teeth bared, immediately pounced towards General Xu like an arrow.

Upon seeing this, General Xu hurriedly took out a magic sword.

However, Roaring Sky Dog's speed far exceeded General Xu's reaction. It leaped up and knocked General Xu to the ground.

Its teeth were like the sharpest blades, and it bit the magic sword into pieces in one bite. Then it madly bit General Xu's neck and chest, and soon his whole body was covered in blood.

General Xu's screams echoed throughout the entire restaurant. He struggled to push Roaring Sky Dog away, but the Roaring Sky Dog was as big as he wanted and expanded twice in an instant. The enormous force made his resistance seem so insignificant.

At this time, those resentful souls that had lost control seemed to have sensed General Xu's fear. There was no more confusion in their eyes, but instead, immense hatred.

They were captured by General Xu's men at a carefree age and tortured for 49 days. When they died, their souls were filled with resentment.

At this moment, all the resentment burst out and they all rushed towards General Xu, pouring out all the pain and resentment they had suffered on this murderer.

General Xu's screams became weaker and weaker, and his resistance became increasingly powerless.

In the end, his body was completely torn into pieces by the resentful spirits, even his bones were gnawed into pieces, and his soul was completely devoured, without even a bit of his spiritual consciousness being able to escape.

Li Jing and Yin Shiniang also sighed when they saw this scene.

They didn't expect that a true immortal of the Jiejiao sect would end in this way.

At this moment, there was a burst of applause from outside the door.

"I didn't expect that the evil spirits here have been eradicated. It's me who arrived a step too late."

Yang Ling frowned slightly, turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw in the dark night sky, a dignified Taoist in white clothes was walking in the air, surrounded by a faint auspicious light.

With every step he takes, a lotus blossoms under his feet, making him look godlike, holy, supreme and noble.

Li Jing and Yin Shiniang were both shocked when they saw this.

This kind of immortal-like appearance is absolutely beyond the reach of ordinary practitioners.

The diners in the restaurant knelt on the ground one after another, worshipping the Taoist in white as a god who came to save people from suffering.

The Taoist in white smiled gently and slowly landed in front of everyone. The auspicious light gradually faded and the lotus disappeared, but he still maintained an extraordinary and otherworldly temperament.

He looked around, his eyes lingered on Li Jing and Yin Shiniang for a moment, and finally landed on Yang Ling, and introduced himself:

"I am practicing in Yunxiao Cave in Wulong Mountain. My Dharma name is Manjusri. When I passed by here just now, I felt the resentment rising from below, so I came to take a look."

The Taoist priest in white had a calm and pleasant voice, but when Yang Ling heard the word "Manjusri", he was suddenly startled.

Among the Twelve Golden Immortals, the seventh is Manjusri Taoist.

Because of his vast supernatural powers and supreme dignity, he enjoys a high reputation among the human race. He has been worshipped for thousands of years, and people all over the world respect him as Manjusri Bodhisattva!

But now that the catastrophe is approaching, why did he come here instead of practicing well in the cave?

Is it possible...

Yang Ling glanced at Yin Shiniang and suddenly realized something.

He remembered that Jin Zha, the first child born to Yin Shiniang, was taken in as a disciple by this Manjusri Bodhisattva.

Judging from the situation, could it be that he wanted to establish a good relationship with Li Jing and his wife in advance so that it would be convenient for him to come and accept them as his disciple after the child is born?

This is much smarter than that guy Yu Ding!

Sure enough, after hearing Wenshu introduce himself, Li Jing and Yin Shiniang looked at each other with surprise and awe in their eyes.

The two of them quickly bowed and saluted, saying very respectfully: "Juniors Li Jing and Yin Shiniang, pay their respects to Guangfa Tianzun." Taoist Manjusri nodded slightly, smiled, stretched out his hand and waved lightly, indicating that they did not need to be polite.

Then, his gaze turned to the resentful souls circling in the air.

Now the Thousand Grievances Banner is in an ownerless state, and has lost some control over these vengeful souls, causing them to be unwilling to return to the banner, but unable to leave too far.

"There are tens of thousands of resentful souls here. If we don't deal with them in time, I'm afraid this rising resentment will turn this place into an endless den of ghosts."

Taoist Manjusri's tone was filled with worry, and he turned to look at Yang Ling, "My friend, can you please give me the ghost flag in your hand? I am willing to purify this evil weapon with the Jade Purity Immortal Light, so as to send these resentful souls to reincarnate, so that they will not continue to commit evil in the world."

"No need."

Yang Ling did not hesitate at all and simply shook his head to reject his proposal.

Eliminating evil and promoting good, purifying evil weapons, and sending tens of thousands of resentful souls to reincarnation in one breath... this is a great act of kindness!

How could I give it to you?
He glanced at the Taoist Manjusri and said directly, "I think I earned this merit myself."

Taoist Manjusri frowned slightly and said sternly, "My friend, you have misunderstood. I am not doing this for merit, but this ghost flag is very powerful and contains the resentment of tens of thousands of children. If you don't handle it well, you may be attacked by it like the evil demon of Jiejiao."

It turned out that he thought that General Xu was killed by the backlash of the skull banner.

Yang Ling suddenly understood.

It seems that this Golden Immortal of the Chan Sect did not see the scene of his action just now, so he kept calling him "little friend".

Seemingly approachable, but actually superior!
Thinking of this, Yang Ling waved his hands, and the Thousand Grievances Banner was broken in front of everyone's gaze.

Taoist Manjusri raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

When Yang Ling just refused, he thought Yang Ling wanted to covet this evil treasure.

After all, this evil weapon, which was refined by the resentful souls of tens of thousands of children, is powerful enough to rival some mid-grade spiritual treasures.

But he didn't expect that Yang Ling would directly destroy this evil treasure.

Be decisive and straightforward, without any lingering feelings!

Afterwards, Yang Ling practiced the Burning Technique, and it seemed as if a small sun appeared on his palm.

The temperature around suddenly rose, and the air seemed to be on fire.

After swallowing the true fire of the sun, his Burning Technique Spirit Qi had already possessed the characteristics of being extremely strong and masculine, capable of burning everything. It directly burned the Thousand Grievances Demon Banner into ashes in one breath.

With the Thousand Grievances Banner completely destroyed, the vengeful souls were completely freed from their restraints, but they did not enter the underworld to be reincarnated. Instead, they seemed to be blood-thirsty and pounced again on the terrified diners in the restaurant.

They have become vengeful spirits, with almost no intelligence, and constantly attacking living people is their nature!
Yang Ling was not surprised to see this. His expression became slightly solemn. He put his hands in front of him and made seals. He looked at the resentful souls solemnly and said, "Your great revenge has been avenged. You can rest assured and go to the underworld to be reborn."

After that, he began to recite a profound scripture in a low voice:

"The human way is vague, the immortal way is vast. The ghost way is joyful, and one should enter the gate of life. The immortal way values ​​life, the ghost way values ​​death. The immortal way is always auspicious, the ghost way is always ominous..."

As Yang Ling's chanting became louder and louder, bursts of heavenly music began to echo in the night sky, ethereal and sacred.

Those resentful souls seemed to have found their direction in the sound of the chanting. Their expressions gradually changed from distortion, resentment, and hatred to peace and relaxation, and finally turned into points of light and dissipated into the air.

"The Sutra of Saving People?"

Taoist Manjusri looked at Yang Ling, who had stopped chanting, with a serious expression, "What is your origin, Taoist friend? How come you also know my Xuanmen's method?"

Now you call me “Daoyou”?

Yang Ling sneered in his heart, and was too lazy to pay any more attention to it. He replied casually: "My name is Yang Ling, I don't have a Buddhist name, but people usually call me Yang the Good Man!"
