Chapter 422: Chapter 422: If You Want to Save Them, I’m Not Involved
But now, here comes the problem.
Who should capture her?
Given this situation.
Looking at the ground full of monk corpses, who will capture her?
Whoever goes up there might die the next second!
So.
After Master Yuanjue shouted, the scene fell silent, not even a word was spoken.
No one paid any attention to Master Yuanjue.
This made Master Yuanjue’s face look like a bitter melon.
Only when he had no other choice, he didn’t want to go up!
After all, it’s quite challenging; he wanted these monks and Little Karami to hold off and wear down the strength of the two beside Lu Ran.
As for the lives of those monks, he didn’t care at all!
The onlookers beneath the stage were also baffled.
Master Yuanjue was just shouting that the monks should defend the Celestial Dragon Sect, so why did he change his mind now?
“Master, it’s not the time for capturing people, that’s secondary.”
“You are of the noble Buddhism, why capture a little girl?”
“First, we need to secure Jingzhou.”
“Even if we can’t secure Jingzhou, we can understand since Jingzhou is too large.”
“But you need to protect us; isn’t that your Buddhism’s duty and responsibility?”
“If monsters come, there are so many of us here; they will just slash through!”
“If you can’t protect us, will your Buddhism take this responsibility?”
…
Listening to the words from the crowd under the stage.
Before Master Yuanjue could say anything, Lu Ran laughed out loud first.
“It’s really funny, truly funny, it turns out you Buddhism are just tools in the hearts of these people.”
“However, they are right; didn’t you Buddhists swear to protect them?”
“Now the opportunity has come, you won’t ignore it, will you? Won’t you?”
“They trusted you at the beginning and even abandoned the Taoist Sect for Buddhism.”
“Hey, don’t look at me; the ones from the Taoist Sect Association and those who followed them, I’ll protect.”
“Our Taoist Sect and your Buddhism are not the same.”
…
Lu Ran spoke with ease, feeling quite content inside.
The crowd below heard this and got anxious.
“Though this Lu Ran is a bit of a jerk, he’s making sense.”
“What the hell are you Buddhists doing?”
“Arrange people to protect the Celestial Dragon Sect scenic area quickly!”
“Damn it, if you don’t hurry up, the monsters will be here soon, damn!”
“Is it still possible to join the Taoist Sect now? I want to join the Taoist Sect!”
…
The uproar from the crowd below completely enraged Master Yuanjue.
“Everyone, shut the hell up!” Master Yuanjue roared.
After he finished speaking.
He scanned the crowd below, and those once gentle and kind eyes were now filled with murderous intent!
The noisy crowd immediately quieted down significantly.
“If you dare to make noise again, I will kill you right now!” Master Yuanjue yelled angrily.
Master Yuanjue no longer cared about anything; this was his true face.
The crowd started to panic a little.
Master Yuanjue clearly wasn’t going to care for them.
When the monsters come, won’t they all die here?
In a moment of life and death, those who originally counted on Buddhism’s protection instantaneously found themselves in a deadlock!
Luckily, there was still someone to speak for them.
Several shareholders of the Celestial Dragon Group stood up immediately after Master Yuanjue’s roar.
“Yuanjue! What are you doing!”
“These are our supporters; how can you speak like this!”
“Apologize to them, and immediately arrange for people to protect them!”
“I don’t know why you want to capture this girl, but you are not allowed to capture her now!”
“Protecting our supporters is more important!”
“Don’t forget your position, everything must obey us… Celestial Dragon Group’s…”
…
BOOM!
Before the words were finished.
A burst of Buddha Qi exploded suddenly beside Master Yuanjue!
The chattering shareholders nearby were sent flying away!
Before they landed, blood splattered out.
When they landed, they were no different from a pile of mush.
“To hell with the Celestial Dragon Group, this monk doesn’t care at all! Everyone listen up, capture Cen Yunuo, or die!” Master Yuanjue roared.
He started to forcibly coerce all the monks of the Celestial Dragon Sect to capture people, or rather, to exhaust the strength of the two women beside Lu Ran.
And just at that moment.
A sudden commotion came from outside the Celestial Dragon Sect.
“Monsters are coming, quick, squeeze inside!”
“Damn it, where are the Buddhist people? What are they doing!”
“Help, I don’t want to die, help, help!”
“Ahhhhh! So terrifying, too terrifying!”
…
Hmm?
Lu Ran was taken aback.
Surprised, he said, “Are these monsters really this fast?”
Cen Yunuo shrugged and said, “It’s normal; after all, it’s a level six siege of monsters, and among them, there are quite a number of high-level agility-type monsters. It’s understandable that the first wave arrived at this time.”
“I guess so.” Lu Ran nodded.
In an instant.
The scene among the crowd turned into chaos.
“No, don’t do this, Buddhists, act quickly!”
“Damn it, old bald Yuanjue, I wasted so much money buying your Buddhist artifacts before!”
“Right, right, Buddhist artifacts, I have some I bought before, I’m saved, hahaha…”
“I want to join the Taoist Sect, make way, let me through!”
“I want to join the Taoist Sect too, quickly, quickly, Taoist Sect people, save me!”
“Lu Ran, save me, I can buy your Tao artifact, I’ll pay any price!”
…
The crowd was in disarray.
Lu Ran merely looked on indifferently, without any reaction.
It was Wang Hai behind him instead.
Hesitatingly looked at Lu Ran, then at Cen Yunuo.
Then took a step forward and shouted to the crowd, “Those who want to join the Taoist Sect, come over here, we…”
But in the next second.
Cen Yunuo grabbed Wang Hai’s arm.
Then shook her head at Wang Hai.
Wang Hai was taken aback.
Lu Ran then spoke, “I respect your choice, but if you want to recruit people, you’ll have to protect them yourself. I have nothing to do with them, you need to understand that.”
Become a Saint?
I don’t oppose it, but you can do that yourself, I just won’t care.
Wang Hai looked at Lu Ran in astonishment.
Then looked at the crowd below.
“You heard what they said earlier, did they think about now when they insulted me? Did they consider now when they insulted and abandoned the Taoist Sect?” Lu Ran asked.
“But they realize their mistakes now, they want to join the Taoist Sect, isn’t it our duty to protect the common people?” Wang Hai cautiously said.
“No, it’s not that they realize their mistakes, it’s that they realize they’re about to die. Protecting the common people, I beg you, what era’s theory is that?” Lu Ran retorted.
Wang Hai was at a loss for words.
In fact, he also knew that without the Tao Lineage of the Fire Virtue Sect.
He had no ability to protect so many people.
Even the people of the Taoist Sect Association around him now, he couldn’t protect them.
Everything still depended on Lu Ran.
If Lu Ran didn’t care, he could do nothing.
And…
Recalling the bitterness of the Taoist Sect all these years, like rats crossing the street, everyone shouting to beat them, mocking and sneering.
Wang Hai slowly exhaled a breath.
“You’re right,” he said.
He then took a step back, returned behind Lu Ran, and no longer looked at the crowd below.
Lu Ran nodded with satisfaction.
Seems like Wang Hai is still salvageable.
