“If you helped Gong Zi Yu today, then the death of thousands of people will be your share of the karmic debt!”
At the end of his speech, Empty Sea spoke in an impa*sioned tone, pointing his two index and middle fingers at Shi Jue as if he were pointing at an unforgivable person.
After seeing Shi Jue’s decision to help Gong Zi Yu, Kong Hai could be considered to have exploded with a great desire to live, doing his best to strike at Shi Jue’s state of mind.
At the same time, Qing Yu could feel the invisible fluctuation of true qi in the air, that was Kong Hai sending a message to the two Kung Ying brothers who were hiding aside, asking them to come out and shake Shi Jue’s state of mind.
And the two Kung brothers, after a slight hesitation, made their decision.
If Gong Zi Yu Fang won, it would be Shi Jue who, in the compa*sion of a monk, asked Gong Zi Yu to spare the people of the Thousand Kung Fu Fort, but as the leader of the betrayal, the Kung brothers would not be allowed to die.
In that case, why not help the Tantric Sect eradicate Gong Zi Yu and make this huge threat simply disappear? So ——
“Master Shi Jue, Master Shi Jue — Master ——”
Kung Ying rolled to Shi Jue not far from him, after which, this guy really lost all his dignity as an expert of the Divine Origin realm and knelt down on his knees, begging bitterly, “Please have mercy, Master, save the lives of thousands of my Thousand Kungfu Fort, Master have mercy ——”
Gong Ying kowtowed several times, each with great force, causing the ground to bang.
Even his brother, Gong Qing, hid his face and dared not look straight at him.
Gong Ying was truly scared out of his wits by Gong Zi Yu. He had never thought that the Divine Origin Realm could be this strong.
Not to mention Gong Zi Yu, even Empty Sea was able to finish off Gong Ying. However, in front of Gong Zi Yu, Kong Hai, who had beaten Gong Ying, could not even save his life. If it wasn’t for the monk Yuan Zhen who appeared out of nowhere, Kong Hai would have been lying on the ground by now.
So Gong Ying was afraid. How arrogant he was beforehand, how scared he is now. A man like him, who was afraid of weaknesses and hardnesses, had the utmost fear of power.
How strong Gong Zi Yu was, how deep Gong Ying’s fear was. Now, he had reached the point where he wanted to live even at the loss of his dignity.
“Bang Bang Bang ——”
Gong Ying kowtowed again as hard as he could. He wasn’t stupid enough to protect his forehead with his true qi, and the ringing head knocked onto the ground, imprinting deep is blood marks.
”Yes, that’s it, break Shi Jue’s Buddha heart and make his mind go into turmoil.” The leader of this good show, Kong Hai, watched the scene with great satisfaction.
If Shi Jue was broken by Gong Ying and his mind was disrupted, then it would be good if he could exert half of his ten percent of his power. At that point, Empty Sea and Yuan Zhen would not only not need to escape, they might even be able to kill them back, annihilating Gong Zi Yu and Shi Jue through and through.
Empty Sea’s gaze turned to Qing Yu, wanting to see what expression this Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, who had killed four people in a row as soon as he appeared on the scene, was making at that moment.
It must have been the impatience of wanting to stop him but being unable to do anything, and the fear that his death was imminent.
However, there was no impatience, nor was there fear.
Even though the bronze mask blocked his vision, Khang Hai could see from the pupils of Gong Zi Yu’s eyes that he was not impatient, let alone frightened.
In his deep eyes, there was only calmness and —— a hint of banter.
Banter?
Yes, banter.
Qing Yu was watching this good drama that was about to reach a high (anti-harmony) tide with a teasing mindset.
From the moment Empty Sea spoke, Qing Yu had already learnt of his intentions.
After that, he sent a voice to Gong Ying across the air, asking him to come out and mess with Shi Jue’s mind, all of which Qing Yu knew. But Qing Yu did not have the slightest idea to stop this scene.
Empty sea thought that this would be the high (anti-harmony) tide of this good show, but he didn’t know that this was only the prelude to the high (anti)tide, the real high (anti)tide, hadn’t arrived yet!
Shi Jue is a different kind of monk.
This was a thought that had crossed Qing Yu’s mind the last time he had met him. And at this moment, that thought was undoubtedly turning true, showing how different Shi Jue was.
The “Tortoise Mirror” worked to its fullest extent, but Qing Yu still failed to reflect a trace of compa*sion, a trace of guilt, from Shi Jue’s heart. Shi Jue’s mind was still as smooth as ever, without the slightest ripple.
The “Heavenly Son’s Lookout Technique” also failed to observe any signs of disturbance in Shi Jue’s physical signs.
All this showed that Gong Ying’s display of abandoning his dignity and character had not caused Shi Jue to be shaken in the slightest.
At that moment, Gong Ying had already walked to Shi Jue’s feet on his knees and was about to hug Shi Jue’s thighs in a further plea. Or, perhaps, to make a secret move.
Qing Yu could see that Kung Ying had such a thought, but it was stopped by the voice transmission from Empty Sea. Shi Jue practised the “Heart Zen Immortality Technique”, so even if he was injured by Kung Ying, he would not be seriously injured.
A sneak attack would only strengthen Shi Jue’s resolve and push him back towards his opponent, which was unwise and highly undesirable.
Therefore, Kung Ying just hugged Shi Jue’s thighs and wailed his heart out, crying his heart out. He had been completely crushed by fear.
And Shi Jue, too, finally made his response.
“Alas, Master Gong, what is your suffering?” Shi Jue looked down at Kung Ying, who was hugging his lap and crying bitterly, and sighed quietly.
“Yesterday’s cause, today’s effect. If it were not for the betrayal of Master Kung, what would have happened now that Gong Zi Yu came to my door? All the suffering is the fault of Master Gong!”
The blame is on him. Kung Ying now realises this, and he also regrets it very much. However, in this world, the pill of regret could only exist in legends and was a vain thought. What was the use of regretting at this point?
“I beg you to save my fortress ——“, Kung Ying could only hold on to this last straw, otherwise, he could not escape from the monk but not the temple, the temple of monk Kong Hai was not here, but he was.
“The world is full of suffering, and this world is a great sea of suffering. Everyone is striving to reach the other shore and seek liberation.”
Shi Jue muttered, “Buddha said, “Universalize all beings. But this multitude, until today, is still in the middle of this sea of suffering.
I, Shi Jue, am known as the ‘Little Buddha’, but I am not a true Buddha after all.”
Shi Jue’s eyes looked straight at Gong Ying, “If I cannot even tame myself, how can you tame you?”
Shi Jue’s palm slowly fell on Gong Ying’s head, like a loving mother comforting a crying child, slowly stroking the top of Gong Ying’s head.
This palm seemed to carry a strange magical power, causing Kung Ying, who was crying out in pain and fear in his heart, to slowly quieten down, his face returning to calm.
“Master Kung, be relieved ——”
“Deliverance – Deliverance ——” Kung Ying muttered these two words.
“Deliverance ——”
Wearing a peaceful smile, Gong Ying slowly closed his eyes.
Never opened them again.
