695 Name Of The Temple, Shadow Of The Person (1/2)
”For the sake of all lives under heaven, please, rest your anger”
Hearing these words in the rain, Fan Xian could not help but laugh His laugh was not exaggerated The lips on the half of his delicate and pretty face showing fro a sliver of disdain and absurdity This was the most honest reaction froht that he would meet these Ascetic Monks when he entered the temple in the rain and that the air around these Ascetic Monks would be so strange
What was the Temple? Not many people in the world knew The only person who had so of that illusory existence was Fan Xian, who had accohout the days of his reborn life, he had thought about this questionsolid to show Fan Xian knew many Priests, Ascetic Monks, andthem, the most famous was the Imperial Advisor of Northern Qi, the wielder of Tianyi Dao, Master Ku He Even Master Ku He never thought that he received orders fro and enact punishment on behalf of heaven
Yet, the Ascetic Monks in front of his seriously and firh coldly
”Why er and not the other person?” Fan Xian asked cal at the Ascetic Monks around him as he slowly restrained the smile on his face ”If there really is a God, presumably all life is equal in their eyes Since it is so, why are you targeting me? Unless the Ascetic Monks who serve the te cowards?”
It was clear thesewords had no effect on the Ascetic Monks They re around Fan Xian They looked like they orshi+pping hi had already rooted Fan Xian firround
”It is not difficult to have iveness However, I need an explanation Why am I the criminal?” Fan Xian slowly pulled down the rain hat connected to the collar of his clothes, allowing the fine raindrops to slowly roll down his smooth black hair Intently, he said, ”Initially, I did not know that you nobodies were such fanatics I can also understand the things you have not said It is nothingthe decades of unease and warfare, and to allow the common people to create peaceful and happy lives But, I don't understand What made you decide that that man will be able to perfectly fulfill your expectations and carry out of the will of the Tehtly He that the heavy aura around hied with hination It did not reveal any flaws that could be exploited His broitched He had truly not thought that these Ascetic Monks would be able to ether to form such an incredible power
Perhaps this was the reason the Edou these outwardly wooden but inwardly fanatic Ascetic Monks
Fro Temple, if Fan Xian wanted to escape the trap of these Ascetic Monks, he should have reacted in the first instant However, he had already missed his opportunity and had sunk into the trap Perhaps this was because he had underestimated the power of the Ascetic Monks More so, it was because he wanted to talk with the Ascetic Monks and learn fros he really wanted to know For exa Te E the pressure the court and Royal Palace had put on them these years? As well as, what exactly was the relationshi+p between the Emperor and that illusory Teed froed They still kept the standing Fan Xian in the center Their expressions ooden and see escaped the bounds of externalsilence Perhaps these Ascetic Monks still hoped that Fan Xian would be persuaded by them and would not watch as the aldo out in front of Fan Xian
An Ascetic Monk had his hands pressed together Raindrops hung from his weak lashes Faintly, he said, ”The Emperor is the person who has received the apocalypse We help the Emperor unite the world to create fortune for the people”
”Apocalypse? When?” Fan Xian asked with his hands behind his back His expression did not change as he stared at the Ascetic Monks old face He could easily see that the ages of these Ascetic Monks were all quite advanced
”Many decades ago” A voice rang out to his right and left The ansas very blurry Fan Xian's eyes narrowed slightly and began to think quickly
”Has an emissary imparted to you the will of the Temple?” Fan Xian asked
”Yes” The reply came from another Ascetic Monk His ansas clean and efficient, without debris However, the answer made Fan Xian narrow his eyes even further
E to scout the earth was one of the greatest secrets of the world If he had not grown up at Uncle Wu Zhu's side and learned so , he would not ask such things Yet, these Ascetic Monks were not surprised at all hearing Fan Xian use the word emissaries It was as they expected Fan Xian to know some of the secrets of the Teh Priest, San shi+, and your peers on Dong Mountain have all died,” Fan Xian continued calmly Even the autumn rain could not hide the poison and mockery in his voice
”Who is there that won't die?”
”Then, why didn't you all die?” Fan Xian asked
”The Emperor still needs us”
”It sounds like you are very irls in my brothel,” Fan Xian said
The at Temple ondrous Fan Xian continued to ask questions cal around him each answered his questions They replied woodenly and methodically They spoke in order The 16 people present answered like one person
Fan Xian's heart gradually sank Looking at these strange Ascetic Monk's long years of hard training, their mutual connection had reached a powerful realm What chilled him even more was the information about the Temple emissaries
The most recent ti the fifth year of the Qing calendar This e the way, he had learned the cultures and habits of human society indifferently like a wild beast In the process of accli, many people died to the hands of this edom Perhaps it was a habitual indifference to life Or, perhaps this emissary wanted to hide the news of his existence All in all, the 13 city gate guards of the tireat price and were unable to even touch the corner of the e court only saw him as an extremely powerful martial artist and did not know his true identity Thus, there was the later scenario of the Ministry of Justice asking the Overwatch Council for help, Yan Bingyun took it seriously and aske Fan Xian to borrow the Tiger Guards
However, the Overwatch Council hadn't had tidou to the little alley beside the Fan manor and was stopped by Wu Zhu outside a noodle shop
After a plain-clothed Grandht, the Temple emissary died Wu Zhu had been heavily injured He disappeared and recovered on Dong Mountain for a number of years The bones of the eaze pierced through the curtain of rain toward the wild plain behind the Qing Teht of the day the Eh Priest looked at the emissary in the flames For a moment, he didn't knohat to say
In the past, the Great Priest of the Qing Temple preached in the marshes and wild territories in the south and just happened to return to the capital not long before the Te after, the emissary melted in the flames He had died of a serious illness
Was it a coincidence? Of course not At least, Fan Xian did not believe that Theinjured and arrival of the Tes he only knew later After a lot of tied to discover this much It at least proved that the Ereeh Priest of the Qing Te calendar, the Eitimate child as bait to lure the Temple emissary and Uncle Wu Zhu to kill each other off However, he did not achieve his goal In order to hide this so that Fan Xian would not know, the High Priest had to die
Fan Xian drew back his gaze and looked at the Ascetic Monks in front of hiht of the so-called apocalypse, the so-called will of the Temple imparted by the emissary That edo at it now, that edou, he had also represented the illusory Teree with the Temple? Fan Xian furrowed his brows The first cooperation had killed Ye Qingmei The second cooperation had al was actually clear now The only thing that didn't make sense hy did the Temple, which supposedly did not interfere in mortal affairs, make such decisions in theFan Xian in the Qing Teo, they had already obtained the will of the Temple In their joy, they loyally invested the these 20 years, they walked ahtenment They lived harsh but peaceful lives At the saents for the Eyi had surrendered, internal unrest had been quelled, and Chen Pingping was dead Everything was going smoothly The people were peaceful The nation ealthy, and its ardom had reached its peak Other than Fan Xian, there didn't see E the world These Ascetic Monks had returned to Jingdou, preparing to welco moment
Thus, the Ascetic Monks wanted to persuade Fan Xian to forget his personal hatreds for this hty ambition and personal sorrow for the world's justice
…
…
Fan Xian stood alone in the rain Although the rain wasVery openly, these Ascetic Monks spoke to him of their actions these 20 years They explained the secrets behind the history of the Qing Kingdom because they truly and sincerely wanted to persuade hiiance of the people, and direction of the big picture to convince Fan Xian to not become an enemy of the Emperor because he was a wise ruler chosen by heaven and the master of the world
”That's all nonsense” Fan Xian shook his head helplessly and wiped away the rain fro Ascetic Monks around hi to do with me? I am just one of the Emperor's officials No, now I am just a commoner I think no one under heaven thinks I can influence the direction of the world Are you all forcing me to enter the Palace or will you escort me into the earth? Is this not an over-reaction?”
The Ascetic Monks looked at each other and saw the caution and determination in each other They did not believe Fan Xian's words One of theazed at Fan Xian and sincerely said, ”Because you are her son”
Fan Xian was silent Finally, he understood where such aTemple had come froarded the Emperor as a heaven chosen leader then, without a doubt, Ye Qingmei, a wos froreatest ene or did not need to know anything They only needed the Teo to determei's action They would become deeply fearful of the woman who dared to despise the Temple
Such fear continued to 20 years later to Fan Xian
”If you kill me, ould the Emperor think?” Fan Xian asked with a smile ”I'm sure he wouldn't want to see his son die to you mystics I am very worried about you all”
All of the Ascetic Monks eulogized in unison A determined expression showed on their faces No one replied, but their oal they pursued, even if the Emperor killed them all afterward, they would keep Fan Xian here forever
”I have heard everything I wanted to hear,” Fan Xian said with slight htly ”Presuree to enter the Palace, you would not feel reassured and would place some kind of restriction on ree At least, it would save ,” Fan Xian said coldly as he looked at them ”I believe in the existence of the Temple even more than you do It is precisely because of this that I am not terrified at the mere mention of its nahed deeply and said with great pity, ”Living between heaven and earth, there always needs to be fear and respect”
”The Emperor once said those words to ht that it was clear the E The Te existences formore than a kind of power to be used
”One should respect the heaven and the earth, but one cannot respect the will of the person beside them,” Fan Xian said ”When it comes to this, you should all learn frohtly, not certain what this an to float
Fan Xian floated up in the fine autu on his body was slowly held up by zhenqi, like a large and heartless bird With a swoosh, he swept toward the outside of the Qing Ten, it was as if Fan Xian's body was being pulled by a long and shapeless rope HeTeh the air was incredible His bodily entle He swiftly rolled and floated away through the wind and rain
His body had only traveled about 50 feet when he felt a thick wall of air co toward him At the moment Fan Xian took action, a dozen Ascetic Monks also moved An Ascetic Monk stepped onto another's shoulders With a runt, he threw out the person next to him Six or seven continuous movements were de connected These movements were not jerky or hesitant
The forular circle With a mutual push, seven peopleTeether, pulling along the Ascetic Monks below them at the saular circle becah the fine rain Rising in the air, they used a wave-likeFan Xian and surrounded hiain on the ground, it was still a circle Fan Xian was still inside it In a flash, the rain continued to fall as before The situation essentially did not change at all except for the fact that everyone hadTeive Fan Xian any further changes to create trouble Eulogizing in unison, countless pal rich zhenqi and firm power slammed toward Fan Xian's body
Fan Xian didn't knohat mind of secret technique the Ascetic Monks practiced to truly be able to link their ether and perfectly ether The attack of these countless hands was like a God eht In an instant, countless God-like hands indifferently and heartlessly appeared and attempted to destroy the demon in front of them
All the space around Fan Xian was covered by the sky covering and rain-blocking palaps This was the so-called beauty of coerous
As the wave of air came toward him, Fan Xian forcefully twisted his body in mid-air and absorbed all the flow in the air that each inch of skin could feel The two circulations were forced into action His body was forced to the ground However, the tip of his feet had just touched the wet ground when Tyrannical zhenqi gathered in his palm He punched toward the thickest part of the air wall
In the instant he was re-subdued by the er When he had charged into the Jingdou execution field eight days ago, he had already killed one Ascetic Monk and forced another back through intimidation At the time, he had suffered the price of three palms to his body It was clear that on that day in the execution field, the Ascetic Monks had not deest power
