Chapter 86: Harmonious and Loving Little Friends!

Qiao Wan : ...

The atmosphere seemed to freeze for a moment.

I don't know if it's my imagination, but the Venerable One in front of me seems very familiar.

It must be a mistake, definitely not the respected elder from her dream.

Qiao Wan felt as stiff as a stick stuck in the ground.

A gust of wind blew in from the wide-open window, causing the papers on the ground to flutter. The spicy contents of that passionate night in the book became clear to everyone's eyes.

... It seems like things have gotten worse!

The little novice who stepped into the meditation room immediately froze as well.

Why would there be a female believer in Venerable One's room, and why would she be holding such a bold and daring book!

The man's gaze stayed on Qiao Wan's face for a few seconds, then his clear and dignified voice resounded once again. It lingered in the air, sounding powerful and majestic, as if it carried a hint of Buddha's radiance, making Qiao Wan's brain buzz.

After a long time apart, “I am amazed by how much you've grown.”

I was recognized!

When those words were spoken, a surge of excitement ran from the bottom of Qiao Wan's spine to her head. She sprang up from the ground, picked up her book, and tucked it into her pocket. She then bowed and greeted respectfully.

"Junior pays respects to Senior!"

The accompanying young monk wondered, "Which junior would bring this thing to pay respects to a senior?!"

Qiao Wan's mouth twitched at the thought of the Buddha in her dreams and Venerable One Miaofa, who was famous for being both beautiful and fierce in the world of cultivation, being connected.

Carrying her fan fiction book and encountering the main character in person, especially when that main character was someone much older and respected than her, Qiao Wan felt a pang of rudeness.

Under the piercing gaze of the powerful Buddha, Qiao Wan lowered her head in shame, feeling so embarrassed that she wished she could bury her head in the ground.

"Mysterious energy." The Buddhist monk looked at her, furrowed his brow, raised his hand, and a beam of golden light flashed, directly pulling the little novice out of the room.

Bang!

The doors and windows, shaken by the powerful Buddhist energy, closed firmly with a loud clang.

"Why do you have this mysterious energy on you?"

Venerable One Miaofa spoke slowly, his gaze fixed on Qiao Wan, frowning as he asked.

After months of being apart in her dreams, they were finally reunited, and he immediately questioned her!

Confused by being suddenly pulled out by a beam of golden light, the little novice, completely puzzled, clung to the door and cautiously called out, "Venerable One!"

Silence filled the room.

What...what is going on?! As she looked at the closed doors and windows and remembered the strange book she had just seen, the little novice felt a chill run down her spine.

It must not be what she thought.

The little novice quickly shook her head and clasped her hands together, chanting the name of Buddha.

In the house, the gaze of the Buddhist was sharp and piercing, as if it could see right through Qiao Wan. There was a hint of anger in the sternness.

From the moment they met until now, Qiao Wan had always appeared before the Buddhist as a solitary practitioner.

But now, when they met "offline", the dark aura around Qiao Wan became almost uncontrollable.

When normal people saw this change, their first reaction was not usually "this person is actually a demon", but rather, "this person has gone astray in their practice, deviated, and become a demon."

Not to mention the spicy book on the ground.

This was evidence that the girl in front of them had gone astray and not learned well.

Thinking about the fleeting glimpse in the book just now, the Buddhist's brow furrowed even tighter.

Facing the oppressive gaze of the Buddhist, Qiao Wan mustered up the courage and said in a hesitant voice, "Senior, please listen to my explanation..."

Miaofa showed no mercy and sternly asked, "Where does this dark aura of yours come from?"

Qiao Wan replied, "It's a long story..."

"Senior, this is roughly how things happened."

Elder Martial Brother Lu Pihan had a cold personality, but after all, he had raised Qiao Wan from a young age. In front of him, Qiao Wan dared to play around.

Although Ma Huaizhen loved to smirk and held a high position like the headmaster of Kunshan, deep down he lacked respect for his elders. Qiao Wan didn't feel too much pressure when interacting with him.

But this senior in her dreams, or perhaps Venerable One Miaofa, was completely different.

They were somewhere between being familiar and not very familiar.

After spending so many years driven by this great figure in the Buddhist world, Qiao Wan didn't dare to hide anything and simply explained the whole story.

The incident on Taixu Peak had spread throughout the cultivation world recently, but Qiao Wan couldn't guarantee whether this powerful figure from Jiuyue Mountain, who rarely left the mountain according to rumors, had heard of her "heroic deeds."

The Buddhist figure pondered for a moment, their gaze turning colder. "Are you a demon?!"

The look in her eyes startled Qiao Wan. Without thinking, she blurted out, "Senior! I'm sorry..."

The voice of the Buddhist monk was firm and deep. "What do you have to apologize for?"

Qiao Wan felt even more ashamed at his stern expression.

She couldn't believe that the person from her dream was Miaofa. Miaofa patiently taught her to control her spiritual awareness and showed her the continuous radiance of light. He even left a mark of the Buddha in her sea of consciousness.

She never expected that she was a demon!

A Buddhist monk had personally taught so many things to a demon!

With this realization, even Qiao Wan felt like a deceitful person, betraying the trust of the Buddha in front of her.

After spending so many years together in the dream, she had also learned that the Buddhist monk had a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

Seeing the displeased expression on Miaofa's face, Qiao Wan obediently admitted her mistake and bowed slightly. "Even though I possess a demon body, my heart seeks righteousness. I hope Senior can help me transform this demonic energy."

Venerable One Miaofa asked coldly, "Why should I help you resolve the demonic energy if Buddhas and demons cannot coexist?"

Qiao Wan looked serious and said, "A righteous heart follows the right teachings, while an evil heart follows the evil teachings. The boundary between Buddhas and demons lies in a single thought. I have a correct understanding and I hope you can assist me."

Feeling remorseful and making a good impression, after years of hearing teachings in dreams, I have at least absorbed some of it. I am not completely stubborn.

Venerable One Miaofa slightly eased his fierce demeanor and asked, "So you're saying Cen Qingyou brought you to the Great Hall of Light to seek my help in resolving the demonic energy?"

Qiao Wan scratched her head and honestly replied, "I didn't expect that you, respected Venerable One Miaofa, were the renowned figure in the cultivation world."

Trying to please someone and failing, Venerable One Miaofa's face turned cold again, saying, "Be cautious with your words!"

Venerable One Miaofa was known to despise evil and treat demons, especially those who refused to repent, with great brutality. But now, Qiao Wan had become a demon herself, and a high-ranking one at that. In an instant, the person who had received much care and attention became a deceitful being, even referred to as a "naughty demon" who couldn't even breathe correctly.

Despite his cold gaze, the Buddhist still maintained his usual sharp tongue but soft heart. He furrowed his brow and said, "From this day on, you will join me and practice under my guidance. I will help you cleanse the demonic energy within you."

Qiao Wan quickly bowed and expressed her gratitude, "Thank you, senior."

As for the conversation on the ground just now, Miaofa did not mention it, and Qiao Wan had no reason to bring it up again.

Speaking of which... Qiao Wan looked up and glanced outside. She had just been separated from Cen Qingyou and had been chased by Xiao Boyu all the way until now. She had no idea where Cen Qingyou was at the moment.

If the people from Jueqing Building wanted to be safe, it was possible that they had harmed Cen Qingyou.

After a moment of contemplation, Qiao Wan said, "Senior!"

Miaofa: "What else is there?"

"Just now, down the mountain, I and Cen Qingyou were chased away by the people from Jueqing Building," Qiao Wan asked with pursed lips, "Could you arrange for some monks to go down the mountain and search? I'm a bit worried."

As they were speaking, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the meditation room. The voice of the person who approached was gentle but tinged with urgency and seriousness.

"Is the master here? I have an important matter to ask for the master's help."

Young novitiate: "The master is inside, talking to a female benefactor."

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

In the next moment, a figure dressed in white like plum blossoms rushed into the meditation room. Cen Qingyou anxiously stepped forward with one foot, "Master, I have an important matter to report!"

But upon crashing into the two people standing inside the room, he abruptly stopped.

The young man glanced at Miaofa, who shone with a brilliant Buddhist aura, and then at Qiao Wan. His eyes widened, "Master, Xin Yi?"

Seeing the girl who should have been pursued by assassins from Jueqing Building standing in the meditation room, with his own dignified master standing beside her.

In a hurry, the young master from the Cen family rushed over to help, but he was confused.

"What about the people from Jueqing Building... Is Xin Yi okay?"

...

Miaofa had a high status in the Great Hall of Light, and in the whole Buddhist world. Naturally, it fell upon Qiao Wan to explain such things.

Cen Qingyou listened silently, sorting out his thoughts for a while.

He wanted to take Qiao Wan to the Great Hall of Light for medical help. To be honest, there was a little bit of selfishness in it for the second young master of the Cen family. Although he was polite and kind, known for his good heart in the entire Qizawa Province, Cen Qingyou, if we're being honest, was a bit of a schemer. Well, not exactly a schemer, but rather more calculating than others, always considering an extra step when doing things.

Even now, Cen Qingyou hadn't forgotten the scene on the eaves of Shichun Hall back then.

The falling black Buddha light.

Light shining endlessly.

Cen Qingyou wondered why Xin Yi was using the spell of endless light. What was the connection between Xin Yi and his master? Were they familiar with each other or was there another hidden reason?

Since he couldn't figure it out, he decided to take her to meet Miaofa.

Considering that it involved his own master, he had to be cautious.

That was why Cen Qingyou had suggested bringing Qiao Wan to the Great Hall of Light in the first place, and now the answer was clear.

However, seeing this scene unfold before his eyes, Cen Qingyou was still a bit shocked. He respectfully bowed and softly said, "So, my master knows Xin Yi."

Miaofa asked, "You returned from Qizawa Province just to ask me to help her dispel the evil energy?"

"Yes," Cen Qingyou nodded, "Xin Yi saved my life in the Cen family, so I dared to ask my master for help."

Cen Qingyou returned to his hometown to visit his parents and older brother. They were all well, so for now, he wouldn't go back and would stay in the temple to focus on his cultivation.

The young disciple, with his graceful and polite manners, slightly adjusted the Buddhist bead hanging on his forehead as he bowed.

But as he looked at the face of the Buddha in front of him, he noticed that something was not quite right.

Being a sharp observer, the disciple sensed that there was something off.

"During the time I went back to visit my family, I haven't slackened in my practice," the disciple assured, with the demeanor of a diligent and respectful student.

"All the sutras I've transcribed have been brought back and stored in my bookcase. Later, I will have senior disciple Jian Shan check them," the disciple thought, considering his sensitive identity.

To show her dedication to learning, Qiao Wan respectfully agreed, "Senior, a few days ago, Cen Qingyou even spent an entire evening teaching me about Buddhism."

Miaofa glanced at the harmonious and friendly duo in front of him, and his face gradually brightened.

Qiao and Cen: (≧▽≦)(≧▽≦)

To show their obedience and eagerness to improve, the two little friends bowed politely together, considerately no longer disturbing, and respectfully stepped back.

And then...

"Clack" ——

A familiar and suffocating sound echoed through the entire meditation room once again.

Two booklets fell out of Cen Qingyou's pocket.

On the cover, there were several bright red words.

"The Consequences Faced by Venerable One Miaofa"

"That Night in the Great Hall of Light"

Cen Qingyou: ...

Qiao Wan: ...

The harmonious and eager duo: !!

Because the sacred image was too magnificent and solemn, with the added effect of restraint, whether it was being fantasized about or on the path of fantasizing, it was a Buddhist giant: ...

In the next moment, a mighty Buddha light burst through the door!

In the Great Hall of Light, Qiao Wan and Cen Qingyou were pulled out of the meditation room while maintaining their "well-behaved bowing" posture.

A loud command sounded, and the voice of the monk was strong: "Go to the meditation hall and recite scriptures!"

Qiao Wan: !!

Oh no!

...
