Chapter 862 Wangtian City (Part 1)
After forming an alliance with Han Yi.
Yuanjue and Jiamo discussed it and decided to send away a group of promising disciples to leave with Han Yi.
Leaving Yunzhou, they headed north, where they blossomed and spread their leaves.
For no other reason than simply being optimistic about Han Yi and investing in advance.
Huiwu, along with dozens of disciples who left with him, was also present.
Each and every one of them is a person with outstanding potential and talent in the generation of Shouyi Temple.
"No problem," Han Yi said with a smile, glancing at Hui Wu. "Great monk, it seems you'll owe me a favor again this time."
He didn't have a bad impression of Huiwu. He was straightforward, a little impulsive, and sometimes his words could be a bit irritating, but he was kind at heart.
"...I'll pay you back sooner or later..." Hui Wu blushed slightly with embarrassment, murmured a few words, and led the team toward the convoy.
Watching Huiwu and his group gradually walk away and blend into the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect's caravan, Yuanjue's eyes revealed a hint of reluctance.
He didn't want to do that either.
The key is.
They have resolved the troubles at Shouyi Temple.
But the various signs that appeared after the change of heaven, and the faint warnings that came from the depths of my heart.
This undoubtedly indicates that even bigger trouble is yet to come.
Even worse, the world could descend into chaos.
They said they were going to the north to establish branch temples and spread their teachings.
However, this also might contain the element of escaping demonic calamity, having multiple burrows, and preserving the flame of life. "Sect Master... the alliance we made before... as long as Shouyi Temple exists, we will uphold it." Yuanjue performed a Buddhist salute. "And what did the Sect Master promise me..."
"Don't worry." Han Yi chuckled. "If anything unusual happens in the forbidden area again, just let me know and I'll be there immediately."
Even though he had absorbed a massive amount of demonic energy in the forbidden area of Shouyi Temple.
However, the Demon Lord's severed arm itself continued to release demonic energy.
Although the quantity is not large.
A little adds up to a lot.
Sooner or later, the forbidden area will spiral out of control again.
The requirements for him in the covenant fall into this category.
“However, I feel…” Han Yi pondered for a moment, “This severed arm… it will take at least ten years to regain its vitality.” He and Yuanjue had tried to destroy the severed arm itself once and for all.
mainly.
Can't do it.
Absorbing the Demon Lord's demonic energy and directly destroying the Demon Lord are two different things.
Han Yi couldn't even analyze the essential structure of the severed arm, let alone destroy it at its root.
Moreover, there is another point to worry about.
Even if one had the ability to destroy a severed arm, what if…
If this attracts the gaze of the one-armed master, or the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm…
In terms of strength, he is currently at most equivalent to a powerful demon king.
Compared to beings at the Demon Lord level, the gap is still too large. After comprehensive consideration...
Shouyi Temple still used the Ten Thousand Buddhas Formation to maintain the seal and temporarily lock the Demon Lord's severed arm.
"Regardless of the circumstances, with the Sect Master's words in place... Shouyi Temple will always be open and steadfast, an ally of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. We will respond to any need and do our utmost to assist you!!!" Yuanjue said solemnly.
To this day, he still doesn't know how Han Yi resolved the troubles in the forbidden area.
But since the other party has the ability and is willing to lend a helping hand.
That is, they pulled Shouyi Temple back from the brink of collapse, which was precarious and could fall at any moment.
Indirectly, it saved thousands of people in the temple.
Shouyi Temple, with its more than 1,000-year-old heritage, was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and recuperate.
Such kindness...
Even if he were to be shattered to pieces... he still couldn't repay that debt.
To go even further.
Yuanjue never expected the other party to honor the terms of the alliance.
After all, if Han Yi and his group really arrived in the North, with its high mountains and long roads, they wouldn't be able to provide timely support if something unexpected happened.
The message might not even get through.
Destruction has already occurred.
But no matter what, Yuanjue must repay this kindness.
"You're too kind," Han Yi smiled. "I'll have to trouble you for the rest of the journey, Master."
"Everything is arranged." Yuanjue smiled. "Sect Leader... please forgive this old monk for not being able to see you off. Take care on your journey, and have a safe trip. Amitabha..."
"Amitabha." Han Yi smiled and returned the Buddhist greeting.
After saying this, he turned and strode away. Meanwhile, on the distant official road, the rendezvous arranged by Yuanjue was already waiting.
……………
This volume on Yunzhou has now come to a complete end. There were too many foreshadowing elements, and the ending was a bit wordy; please forgive me. Next up are the contents of Qingzhou, the Northern Lands, and other worlds. The outline is ready, and I will now elaborate.
……………
Qingzhou, Longmen Mountain.
On the official road, carriages and horses moved like dragons, billowing dust.
A large group of carriages sped past amidst a tsunami-like cacophony, drawing the astonished and uncertain gazes of the crowd.
"Please sit down, Brother Chen."
In the most spacious black carriage in the middle sat a handsome young man with an aloof demeanor and a tall, strong physique.
The man looked at the burly man who walked in and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"The caravan is large, and the people and horses have had to eat and drink along the way. Thank you for your trouble, Brother Chen." The man raised his wine glass; it was Han Yi, who had left Yunzhou.
"Oh, not at all. Brother Han is a distinguished guest. If I neglect him, the old man will nag me again when I go back." Chen Baihe sat down casually, without any formality.
"This little wine cup... is so unpleasant. A wine pot is much more satisfying!"
He picked up the wine jug on the table and gulped down the wine.
Perhaps he drank it a little too quickly.
Or perhaps they underestimated the spiciness of the wine in the pot.
After taking a couple of sips of alcohol, Chen Baihe suddenly started coughing, with alcohol gushing out of his mouth and nose. He seemed unable to hold his liquor, and his face turned visibly red.
This caused Zhong Han, who was sitting to the side, to chuckle.
Inside the carriage was a large, soft cotton mat, with a fixed table in the middle. On the table were several delicate side dishes, and four small wine glasses were placed at the four corners, with a slightly intoxicating aroma of wine lingering around them.
At this moment, Han Yi and Zhong Han were sitting on one side.
Huiwu and Chen Baihe sat on the other side.
"Senior Brother Baihe, if you can't drink, then don't drink... You always have to..." Huiwu's face also showed a helpless expression, and he reached out to snatch the wine pot away.
He tried several times, but all his efforts were in vain.
Compared to ordinary people, the Venerable Huiwu was already considered a small giant.
But compared to Chen Baihe, they are nothing.
Beneath his enormous bald head was an extremely burly physique, his body muscular and muscular. He carried a monk's knife at his waist, and his face frequently showed an impatient expression; he was clearly not a good monk. And indeed, that was the case.
Chen Baihe was originally an abandoned baby in the wilderness, with no father or mother.
Yuanjue encountered him by chance and couldn't bear to leave, so he adopted him and brought him back to the temple, naming him after his secular name before he became a monk, Chen.
It was also named Chenbai River because it was discovered beside a river.
Although Chen Baihe had a connection with Shouyi Temple and had lived there since childhood, he did not have the slightest resemblance to a monk.
He was naturally extremely averse to Buddhist scriptures, rituals, meditation, and sitting meditation, but was quite interested in fighting, killing, and the code of chivalry. He seemed to be born a good candidate for the chivalrous world.
So, after committing several major disasters in succession.
Yuanjue said that his mind was not settled and he did not understand Buddhist rituals, so he was not fit to be a monk. He had no choice but to reluctantly expel him from the inner courtyard of Shouyi Temple.
Of course, even though Chen Baihe was a lay disciple, he was raised by Master Yuanjue.
Humans are not plants or trees; how can they be without feelings? Yuanjue is not Buddha, nor can he sever all ties with the secular world. Ultimately, he still possesses a deep affection for his children, which is why Chen Baihe's treatment is truly unique.
They gave him all the unique skills that only core disciples of Shouyi Temple could practice, as well as various special privileges.
Chen Baihe was quite sensible.
Knowing his identity was sensitive, Yuanjue was in danger of being implicated if his secrets were exposed while he was wandering around Yunzhou.
He simply left Yunzhou and came to Qingzhou to work his way up.
They also built a considerable business and gained some fame.
The Baihe Escort Agency enjoys considerable prestige and reputation throughout Qingzhou.
"How dare you talk to your senior brother like that?" Chen Baihe recovered and gave Hui Wu a sharp rap on the forehead before gulping down the rest of the wine in the flask.
"It's alright." Seeing that Huiwu was about to speak, Han Yi waved his hand to stop her in time.
"We will be arriving at Wangtian City soon. Brother Chen, you have traveled a long way and must be exhausted. I have nothing to repay you with, so I will treat you to a few drinks as a reward."
He gave Zhong Han a wink, and she understood, smiling as she took out another pot of wine that had been warmed up beforehand from under the table.
After sweeping away several major forces such as the Wanhua Palace and the Sanshan Sect, Han Yi had little else on him but plenty of wine.
In particular, the Wanhua Palace has countless kinds of rare and fine wines and medicinal wines, filling the Kongsang Ring to the brim.
"Fine wine! Excellent wine!!!"
Just by smelling the faint aroma of wine wafting through the air, Chen Baihe couldn't help but become intoxicated.
Such fine wine, let alone drinking it.
I've never even seen or heard of it before.
Qingzhou is located in the cold north, with a cold temperature and soil lacking fertility. The grain grown is not enough for daily consumption, and there is simply no surplus to brew alcohol.
Not to mention the extremely grain-intensive craft of brewing fine wines.
This time, however, Chen Baihe restrained himself, and a rare look of seriousness appeared on his rugged face.
"Looking towards the sky city..."
"Originally, this trip was just to deliver you to Wangtian City and that would be it," he sighed. "There are some things I didn't want to say, but my master personally instructed me..."
Chen Baihe was born with many personality flaws: irritable, easily angered, and belligerent... Any one of these traits could cause a lot of trouble.
But there's one thing that others can't criticize him for.
Respect for teachers.
For him, the word "master" meant more than just imparting knowledge, teaching skills, and resolving doubts. He truly regarded Yuanjue as his own father, and always obeyed his every word.
Perhaps that is the reason.
The people in the temple still regarded him as one of them, and the Baihe Escort Agency also became one of the surrounding forces of Shouyi Temple in Qingzhou.
