Chapter 287.1

Right, does your Buddhist Sect think that with a Great Grandmaster supporting you, you can disregard Great Wu and Great Xia?

By doing this, are you trying to stir troubles and take the opportunity to spread Buddhism?

What exactly are your intentions, Buddhist Sect?

The onlookers chimed in one after another as if fearing the world wouldnt be in chaos.

Its a misunderstanding, a complete misunderstanding!

Master Jiechen said somewhat anxiously: We monks are ascetics. We always practice vegetarianism, chant sutras, and live in harmony with the world. How could we possibly commit such heinous acts?

Then how do you explain these injuries? the Grandmaster of Great Wu pointed at the corpses in front of him and asked sternly.

To tell the truth, this poor monk also has no idea what happened!

Master Jiechen furrowed his brow: These injuries are indeed caused by the 72 Unique Skills of our Buddhist Sect! But to be honest, there are quite a few in our Buddhist Sect who know these skills, but only a handful can reach the mastery level!

For example, this One Finger Zen divine skill, within our Buddhist Sect, only my disciple Jiekong has cultivated it to the pinnacle. And this Dragon Claw Hand, only two people have mastered it to the pinnacle, which are Monk Lichen and my senior brother Jiechi! And these people have always stayed within the Shaolin Temple, so they couldnt possibly be the culprits!

The Grandmaster of Great Wu sneered: After all is said and done, its your people. Of course, you would speak for them! How can you prove that they havent left the temple? How can you prove that they are not the real culprits?

Exactly, maybe youre all in it together! the Sword Elder immediately chimed in.

Or perhaps

The Grandmaster of Great Wu glanced sideways at the other party: Your Buddhist Sect has secretly trained a group of monks skilled in Shaolin Temples unique skills to do your dirty work!

Its highly likely! If others can do it, why cant the Buddhist Sect do it? the Sword Elder added.

Absolutely impossible!

Master Jiechen stated emphatically: The unique skills of our Buddhist Sect are easy to learn but hard to master. Its easy to start but difficult to make even small progress, requiring five to six years of time! Cultivating to the pinnacle would take thirty to forty years!

With that time and effort, why wouldnt we have the dead soldiers learn some other quick-success techniques? Why bother learning Shaolins unique skills and make things hard for ourselves?

Inside the Great Xia imperial palace, Lin Beifan is listening to the report from the Sword Elder.

The situation is as he expected: a lot of thunder but little rain, and the two sides havent come to blows.

After all, Great Wu has only lost a prince.

There are simply too many princes in Great Wu. There are over 20 in the current generation alone, and adding the princes from previous generations, now lords, the total exceeds a hundred.

When princes become so numerous, they lose their value.

The death of one or two causes a stir, but its unlikely to lead to a real death fight.

If a Grandmaster had died, the situation would definitely escalate quickly, and it might even alarm the Great Grandmasters behind the scenes.

It seems this matter has come to an end! After all, both parties are transcendent forces, and its unlikely they would make a fuss over such a trivial matter! Thats why the Great Wu Emperor took the opportunity to abolish all the temples within his territory as a way to avenge his son!

Thats right!

Yaoyao nodded repeatedly: For such forces, anything that doesnt involve a Grandmaster or higher is considered a minor issue! However, I believe this matter has nothing to do with the Buddhist Sect!

Why do you think so? Lin Beifan asked.

As an old rival, I understand them too well!

Yaoyao chuckled coldly: The Buddhist Sect is full of people who act sanctimonious, who love to cloak themselves in righteousness while engaging in crooked deeds! As for schemes and tricks, they disdain such actions!
