Chapter 182: Chapter 105: Never Cultivating Good Deeds_2

The old monk simply gathered the Buddha’s light from his body, stood up with his hands behind his back and said: "Although Golden Ray Monastery is small, it can still house the ancestral relic. Please go back and tell Abbot Xiong Chan, if he wants the relic, he should come himself."

Upon displaying such a formidable divine power, everyone in the hall was shocked.

The four managing monks, knowing that they could not achieve their goal today, cursed their bad luck and grew severely skeptical about their temple’s information network.

They were so stunned by Yankong’s divine power that they could only meekly agree, losing their previous arrogance.

Xu Qing, watching from the side, was both shocked and observed that this move cost the old monk a lot, as his hands were still trembling behind his back.

But then...

Is this manifestation?

Not to mention the power, which indeed was very...

Xu Qing really felt envious now.

No wonder those famous true beings and divine monks are so good at playing gods and spirits.

Using this power of manifestation really makes it seem as if the gods and Buddha were present.

If manifestation is so, I wonder if the more powerful "Possession" or the legendary "Ghost Immortal" could achieve the scenario of Fatian Xiangdi.

The four managing monks were subdued by the old monk in one move, looking very disheveled, and were about to leave.

At that moment, the Official Army called by Xu Qing also arrived at the mountain.

Now everyone in Jiangning Prefecture knows that Golden Ray Monastery was under the protection of Mr. Xu, and Great Zen Temple’s unannounced visit was considered overstepping their boundaries.

Naturally, Xu Qing could not let them leave easily.

Xu Qing got down from the roof, walked over to where Captain Zhang and his soldiers were, and led them into the temple.

The worldly society’s individuals inside the temple immediately tensed up.

Although they often verbally criticized the court’s minions, they were still cowardly when faced in broad daylight.

"Captain Zhang, these four monks came to Golden Ray Monastery to create trouble. Arrest them and take them back to the Government Office for questioning."

The leading managing monk said: "We are monks from the Great Zen Temple, with official monk certifications."

Xu Qing replied: "That’s all the more reason to take you in. Great Zen Temple is thousands of miles away, what are you doing here if not to rebel?"

Now, with the Daoists and Buddhist influence gone, this managing monk dared not associate with rebellion in front of the Official Army.

He said: "We are here just for affairs concerning our temple, how could it possibly be to rebel."

Xu Qing: "We’ll talk more after you enter the Government Office."

"Besides, you are not from the Government Office, you have no right to arrest us."

Xu Qing chuckled inwardly, "Indeed, we are not from the Government Office, but everyone in the Government Office is my man."

He signaled Captain Zhang and the soldiers to take action and arrest the four managing monks.

These four monks did not dare to retaliate against the Official Army in front of everyone; otherwise, it would indeed be considered rebelling.

Moreover, Fayue sparingly gathered the martial monks around too.

Xu Qing looked around at the other worldly society’s toughs and said: "You all should leave your names too, in case he really is a rebel, I will have to invite you to the Government Office as well."

"No, no!"

These worldly society toughs had come to help fight, but even if among them were secular disciples of the Great Zen Temple, they dared not talk back at this moment.

Regardless of whether Xu Qing was a government official, these soldiers could not possibly be impersonators.

Secretly committing arson and murders is one matter, openly resisting the court is another.

These worldly toughs perceived the adverse situation and each excused themselves and slipped away.

Seeing that Xu Qing did not stop them, they left even faster.

Some secular disciples had a guilty conscience, suggesting they would use connections to inquire about what exactly was happening. As for going directly to the Government Office to demand people, they dared not.

The four managing monks, surrounded by the Official Army, and with Fayue and the martial monks blocking them, also dared not truly initiate a fight.

Primarily because the old monk was still watching.

This old fellow, with his Divine Soul Manifestation and Qi-Blood at the Refining Internal level, and having practiced the observation of the Great Mighty Dragon Bodhisattva, was truly not someone they could afford to provoke.

The leading managing monk had no choice but to signal his companions not to act rashly and think of a way to escape after getting down the mountain.

"Respected donors, there’s no need for violence, we’ll go to the Government Office with you to clarify our intentions," said the leading managing monk, producing a golden bead and handing it to Captain Zhang.

Captain Zhang glanced at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing nodded.

He then accepted it and said: "Everyone behave."

Xu Qing walked up to the leading managing monk, patted his shoulder and said: "You all are highly skilled in martial arts, we need to disarm your joints first."

Hardly had his words fallen, his hands moved as fast as lightning.

"Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist!" exclaimed the leading managing monk in shock.

But in the blink of an eye, Xu Qing had disarmed his joints.

This also demonstrated the power of the Heavenly Repairing Tribulation Hand.

In the process of patting his shoulder, using the absolute tactile sense of the Heavenly Repairing Tribulation Hand, Xu Qing detected the flow of his Qi-Blood, blocked the monk’s Qi-Blood circulation with his first move, and then applied the Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist’s technique of dislocating the bones, immediately leaving him powerless to resist.

The other three monks, seeing their leader subdued, each tried to fight back. At this point, Yankong struck with the Great Vajra Palm, hitting the three monks consecutively, causing all three to instantly lose their fighting ability.

The martial monks accompanying them were also surrounded by Fayue and others.

Though their martial arts were strong, with Fayue and the others coordinating smoothly and directly attacking with iron sticks and precepts knives, these martial monks had no time to draw their weapons and were directly subdued.

Yankong initially just intended to make a show to scare off this group of monks from the Great Zen Temple, but Xu Qing arrived and took action against the monks.

He then took the opportunity, directly capturing these monks.

After all, with an incident, Xu Qing would cover for him.

This is the advantage of having connections in the court.

Without connections, he himself wouldn’t dare to provoke the Great Zen Temple. Now with Xu Qing, who has official backing stepping in, the Great Zen Temple had to be cautious.

After all, no matter how powerful Great Zen Temple is, they wouldn’t dare to attack Jiangning Prefecture.

Xu Qing himself wasn’t afraid of the Great Zen Temple, especially since the Emperor currently dislikes Buddhism; him striking against the Great Zen Temple was considered being on the right side.
