Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi
Chapter 887 - 885: Old Monk, It's Your Turn!

"Elder monk, this map is incorrect!"

Xiao Yi's calm voice struck the ears of Master Tianyun and Monk Xue like a bolt from the blue, deafening, causing both of their expressions to change.

Monk Xue's anxious gaze turned to Master Tianyun.

Master Tianyun frowned slightly but still maintained a compassionate and kind demeanor, feigning confusion as he asked, "The map is incorrect? Xiao, you must not speak recklessly—this map fragment is exactly the one you gave to me that day..."

Monk Xue also nodded and said, "Xiao, we monks should not tell lies. You must not speak recklessly and slander the purity of Buddhist disciples!"

Observing the righteous demeanor of the teacher and disciple pair,

Xiao Yi's lips slightly curled. Had he not already seen through their true faces, he might have been deceived by their seemingly innocent appearances.

He raised the map fragment in his hand, displaying it before the two.

His grip suddenly tightened, and the map fragment he was holding exploded with a bang, turning into pieces scattered on the ground.

Xiao Yi, with a thick sneer, chided, "Are you sure this is real? Give me all your map fragments and let me try if they also crumble so easily!"

Uh...

Monk Xue and his companion exchanged glances, both seeing a hint of panic in each other's eyes.

They had not anticipated the fake map fragment crafted by Kanan Arhat to be so fragile. Xiao Yi had not used any innate power; merely the strength of his palm caused it to burst.

Even an ordinary seventh-tier weapon should not be so frail,

let alone a map fragment inherited from Ancient Times!

Related to the Hall of Longevity from the same era, how could it possibly be so fragile?

"Sire..." Monk Xue turned to Master Tianyun.

Master Tianyun gently shook his head, his eyes squinted into slits. Although annoyed that the fake map crafted by Kanan Arhat was so fragile, causing them to be extremely passive,

they would rather die than admit the map was fake!

Otherwise...

All their schemes would come to naught!

All of this happened in a mere instant. Master Tianyun placed his palms together, reciting "Amitabha Buddha", with a face full of compassion for the world: "Xiao, the map fragment is indeed the one you gave to me. I can swear on my Buddhist spirit that I have never tampered with it."

Swear by Buddhist spirit?

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow but didn't expect Master Tianyun to be so bold.

However, for someone following the path of the demon monk like Master Tianyun, the Buddhist spirit meant nothing to him. He never had a heart for Buddhism; where, then, does the Buddhist spirit come into play?

Xiao Yi scoffed, "Elder monk really has no shame. To think that a high monk of the demon path would speak to me of Buddhist spirit?"

Faced with Xiao Yi's mockery, Master Tianyun remained expressionless, still showing a compassionate facade: "Benefactor, you repeatedly insult me—aren't you afraid that I will suppress you with the Buddhist Law?"

The threatening words contrasted sharply with his compassionate appearance.

They were ready to tear off the mask!

Xiao Yi was delighted inside. He wasn't afraid of the elder monk's anger; he was more worried he might endure like a millennia-old tortoise. Xiao Yi leaned slightly forward, his mocking gaze meeting the monk's, as if he could see through souls, pausing with each word, cutting deep: "Elder monk, if you have nothing to hide, then let me try that piece of the map in your hands. What is there to fear? Could it be that you are only outwardly decent but internally full of thievery and debauchery, afraid to show your true face?"

Bang!

The cushion under Master Tianyun suddenly exploded.

A chilling murderous intent surged to the skies.

Violently flipping the roof of the outer court building.

The noise here immediately caught the attention of the powerhouses in Tian Yun Temple, with seventeen figures breaking through the sky and hovering above the courtyard. These were seventeen of the eighteen Demon Arhats, only Long-browed Arhat was missing.

However, everyone's attention wasn't focused on that.

Pairs of icy eyes locked onto Xiao Yi under the aura filled with murderous intent.

A great battle was imminent.

Master Tianyun squinted his eyes, his face wearing a smile that wasn't quite a smile, as he looked at Xiao Yi, "Xiao, earlier I asked you to leave, yet you aggressively refused to go. Now, even if you want to leave, it won't be so easy!"

Xiao Yi pointed to the seventeen figures in the sky, "Just because of them?"

"No, no, no!"

Master Tianyun slowly rose, his hunched figure under the blood-red Kasaya visibly swelling at a speed visible to the naked eye, his muscles bulging like lead blocks, a sinister black aura swirling around him, "With your strength, Xiao, naturally they can't stop you. However, do you think I personally couldn't keep you here in Tian Yun Temple forever?"

Crackle!

A burst of violent sparks exploded from within him.

Streams of innate power like lightning and thunder continuously moved across his body, colliding with each other and producing loud crackling sounds, whipping up a fiercely sharp wind.

Each wind blade was as sharp as a blade, scratching the face with a pain like slicing swords.

Monk Xue mocked coldly, "Xiao, earlier, I advised you to leave, but you didn't heed the advice. Now, you can't leave even if you wish!"

"Ha ha ha…"

Xiao Yi suddenly burst into a long laugh, his laughter thick with sarcasm.

The laughter caused Master Tianyun and Monk Xue's faces to twitch.

"What are you laughing at?"

Monk Xue was extremely annoyed, "You have thoroughly infuriated the Holy Buddha, not even the mighty emperor could save you now, and yet you find time to laugh here?"

Xiao Yi's smile stopped, his eyes squinting as he looked at Monk Xue, "Are you threatening me?"

"I am threatening you, what can you…" Monk Xue responded instinctively.

But…

His words abruptly stopped mid-sentence.

Monk Xue's eyes bulged out fearfully, his eyeballs protruding from the sockets, the milky whites veined with blood. His abdomen tightened, his upper and lower body surging forward, his mouth spewing a mix of fresh blood and bile.

By his side…

Xiao Yi appeared alongside him without anyone noticing, his right fist firmly pressed against Monk Xue's abdomen.

"In your next life, if you can still be human, remember to keep your eyes open, some beings aren't meant to be provoked! Threaten me, and you will pay the price!"

Boom!

A beam of silver light pierced through Monk Xue's abdomen, shooting out from his back, the light reaching a thousand meters.

Along its path, buildings collapsed, the ground sank, and vegetation turned to dust.

Within a kilometer radius.

Not a single tile was left intact!

No blade of grass grew!

Thump!

The body of Monk Xue fell to the ground, Xiao Yi casually flicked the blood from his palm, his cold gaze turning towards the grim-faced Master Tianyun, as he hooked his finger: "Old monk, it's your turn now!"
