Chapter 83: The Arrogant Xuanshang
"Buddha said to Subhuti, ’All Bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas should subdue their minds like this...’"
Accompanied by a chanting voice, the Buddhist monk slowly approached. His voice inadvertently brought calmness to people’s hearts but seemed to agitate the Cangjun Wolf.
Soon, the Buddhist monk was near. He wore a worn-out kasaya, his body covered in dust, his resolute face utterly tranquil, eyes steadfast as if he could tread through thousands of mountains and rivers. The Buddhist beads in his hand turned with his thumb, accompanied by the sandstorm behind him, making him appear nothing more than an ascetic monk.
Jia Xun’s expression grew solemn, for he sensed an immense aura from this monk, as if it could contain all rivers
Hopefully, he’s just passing by.
Jia Xun thought just that, but unfortunately, the monk stopped in front of them.
"The Qianyue royal family is passing through; monk, do not block the way!"
The captain of the guard said sternly. Within the Qianyue Kingdom, he naturally had the confidence to say these words, but of course, if he were outside the Qianyue Kingdom, he wouldn’t dare to say so, lest he attracted the covetousness of sinister individuals.
But the monk spoke slowly and deliberately, "Your party is precisely the object of my journey."
Upon hearing this, the guards immediately looked displeased.
"I’ve heard that a monster has appeared in the Qianyue royal family, disturbing the minds of the people. I have come to eradicate the demon," the monk said slowly, causing the guards to burst into curses.
