Chapter 1388 - 1387: The Overbearing Si Lingxi

Chapter 1388: Chapter 1387: The Overbearing Si Lingxi

In the next moment, the crimson-gold Phoenix Divine Fire suddenly ignited out of thin air.

The Buddha Light used to isolate Lu Residence from the outside world was almost incinerated in an instant, then replaced by a seemingly thin layer of flames radiating a terrifying heat.

Phoenix Sky Curtain!

If they are told not to leave, then they definitely won’t leave. Once the Phoenix Sky Curtain is deployed, even the Great Black Heaven Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor couldn’t break through, let alone these three monks from the Great Brahma Heaven Temple.

Master Qi Kun and Master Du Mo were still in a daze, but Master Tucha reacted immediately. ℴ

"What is this..."

Master Tucha almost bulged his eyes out, "Phoenix Divine Fire?"

"Are you the Phoenix Palace Master of Southern Border Phoenix Mountain?"

Instinctively, Master Tucha crushed one of the prayer beads in his hand, and a Buddha Light enveloped the three of them.

"Phoenix Palace Master, wait a moment. This is a misunderstanding, we are..."

"There’s no misunderstanding." Si Lingxi said indifferently, "The two monks from the Brahma Heaven Temple were killed by me."

Master Tucha’s pupils contracted sharply.

"In front of me, capturing my sisters, even if Monk Fansa were to come, this palace would engage him, and it’s fitting those two monks with a millennia of Dao practice met their fate."

Si Lingxi looked at the group, smiled coldly, and said softly, "Just like you."

Only then did Master Du Mo and Master Qi Kun react, showing expressions of shock and fear.

They finally realized who the Phoenix Palace Master was and understood who they were facing at that moment.

But...

How could the Phoenix Palace Master from Southern Border appear in a small county in the Central Plains?

Furthermore...

Although Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying were filled with merit and incense respectively, ultimately, they were just two young people.

How did they suddenly become sisters with the Phoenix Palace Master of Phoenix Mountain?

No matter what, they knew the situation they faced was dire and severe.

Attempting to capture Si Lingxi’s sisters is akin to abducting Master Fansa’s disciples; even turning you to ashes on the spot wouldn’t elicit any objection.

Wait, hold on, sisters?

Master Tucha and the others once again focused their gaze on Lu Zheng beside Si Lingxi.

The only possibility for Si Lingxi, Liu Qingyan, and Shen Ying to become sisters...

Impossible, right?

Facing their gaze, Lu Zheng displayed a polite smile on his warm face, which quickly turned to ice.

"Go!"

The next moment, Master Tucha shouted, and all his prayer beads shattered.

The remaining seventeen prayer beads emitted infinite Buddha Light, protecting the three in the center, attempting to break through the Phoenix Sky Curtain.

The Buddha Light was so dazzling that even within the Phoenix Sky Curtain, it made Lu Zheng’s eyes sting intensely.

At the same time, Lu Zheng discerned Master Tucha’s prowess, likely comparable to Li Muran of the Observatory or Tie Yi of the Anomaly Suppression Bureau, or if worse, not much worse. He’s certainly an important figure in the Great Brahma Heaven Temple.

"Phoenix Palace Master!"

Master Tucha pressed his hands together, protected by infinite Buddha Light, seriously said, "The Great Brahma Heaven Temple and Phoenix Mountain have never held grudges, I hope the Palace Master considers carefully!"

Master Tucha’s intention was clear, Lu Zheng’s identity has already been exposed at the Great Brahma Heaven Temple, their pursuit for vengeance against Lu Zheng is no secret.

And Si Lingxi’s relationship with Lu Zheng will sooner or later be discovered by the Great Brahma Heaven Temple.

Having already killed two people, if three more were slain, the enmity between the Great Brahma Heaven Temple and Phoenix Mountain would be irrevocable.

Si Lingxi remained expressionless, as if she hadn’t heard Master Tucha’s words at all, as the Phoenix Sky Curtain enveloped the heavens, emitting crimson-gold light and endless Phoenix Divine Fire burned fiercely in Lu Zheng’s courtyard, advancing toward the trio.

Lu Zheng did not act.

It wasn’t necessary for him to act just then.

Facing the contemptuous gazes intentionally cast by Master Qi Kun and Master Du Mo, he ignored them and showed no anger; he already regarded them as dead men walking.

He knew the monks’ intent was to provoke him, enticing him to act, so Si Lingxi might expose a flaw, granting them a chance to escape.

This is certainly not possible, those two monks clearly overthink, even if he acted, it wouldn’t impact the arrangement of the Phoenix Sky Curtain nor present them an opportunity to flee.

But at a time when it clearly doesn’t require him to act, he didn’t.

Just as he would act decisively if Si Lingxi faced danger, her acting against the three monks targeting him was likewise decided.

Rely on her protection? Not happening!

Partners united, right?

He’s long been unified with Si Lingxi.

Lu Zheng: (◔◡◔)

On the other hand, seeing Si Lingxi had no intention of responding, Master Tucha was resigned.

As the Guardian Grand Elder of the Great Brahma Heaven Temple, he was second only to the Vansa Ancestor and the leading figure of the Brahma Descent Tower there.

He’s an eminent High Monk with status and position!

Though he might not be as illustrious as Si Lingxi, he’s certainly not a minor figure who can’t even converse with her.

In terms of him personally acting to travel to the Central Plains to execute Lu Zheng, it’s already indicative of the Great Brahma Heaven Temple’s extreme concern toward Lu Zheng.

This is due to concerns over unexpected occurrences from the Great Jing Court or the White Cloud Temple side, or Lu Zheng possessing sufficient countermeasures bestowed by the White Cloud Temple.

In the minds of those monks in the Great Brahma Heaven Temple, regardless of potential unforeseen changes, Master Tucha’s prowess is more than enough to tackle them.

Yet they never anticipated someone akin to their Vansa Ancestor would be personally safeguarding Lu Zheng!

Folks, who would have thought of this!

No matter how formidable Master Tucha was, he couldn’t possibly be a match for Si Lingxi!

Seeing Si Lingxi’s intent to kill, Master Tucha ceased wasting words.

Acknowledging Si Lingxi’s might as the famed Fire Phoenix, yet he was also the Guardian Grand Elder of the Great Brahma Heaven Temple, a renowned figure in the Western Buddha Country.

His Buddha Power transcended the mundane, already reaching the pinnacle of Brahma Heaven’s realm.

"You think you can kill me so easily, you foul-feathered beast?"

Master Tucha roared as the infinite Buddha Light highlighted his presence, revealing a pagoda in his hand with a reverse maneuver.

The pagoda, with a round base and a pointed head, stood one foot tall and one foot wide, entirely golden, adorned with numerous tiny gold pieces on its body. Under the Buddha Light, it radiated brilliant golden light, possessing a distinctive exotic charm.

"Amitabha Buddha!"

Master Tucha glared fiercely while reciting the Buddha’s name, "Brahma Heaven is in me! Brahma Heaven as me!"

In the next moment, the pagoda left his hand and grew rapidly in the wind, expanding to...

Expanded to less than three feet when infinite pressure closed in from all sides.

Although not a master of Sumeru Mustard Seed, Si Lingxi’s strength was adequate. The Phoenix Sky Curtain sealed the void, Phoenix Divine Power compressed space, directly controlling the battlefield within dozens of yards.

"If you could cultivate No Self, I’d pay you some mind, but relying on external force within Brahma Heaven, you fall far short."

Si Lingxi said nonchalantly, then gracefully extended her jade hand, fingers aligned, and made a downward sweep.

"Boom!"
