Chapter 441: Chapter 213: Chen Xuan! Aren’t You Afraid of the 18 Levels of Hell?

A monk responded.

"It’s over!"

The old monk, Liao Yin, paled. "Don’t tell me they brought Chen Xuan here," he said.

Not long ago, he had also gone to Qianling City to observe the election for City Lord.

Back then, Chen Xuan had been dressed in a purple robe, his face obscured.

The power Chen Xuan had displayed back then was precisely why Liao Yin had taken special note of his appearance.

"Chen Xuan?"

"Which Chen Xuan?"

"Don’t tell me... *that* Yama Chen?"

The old monks all looked startled.

"Yes! Go check outside, quickly!"

Liao Yin shot to his feet. "Ring the bell! Ring the bell!"

’This is big trouble.’

’The Yun family’s patriarch actually brought Chen Xuan here.’

’And to make matters worse, Hui Ming is with him!’

’He must have been captured.’

’It’s very likely their entire scheme will be for nothing!’

’That Chen Xuan is the infamous Iron-faced Yama.’

’He went on killing sprees at Dark Crossing and in Qianling City, and the shockwaves from those events still haven’t completely faded.’

’If he decides to forcibly back the Yun family, there’s no way our Fahong Temple can stand against him.’

’Right now, their only option is to play dumb and deny everything.’

’Hopefully, that Chen Xuan is a reasonable man!’

...

「At that very moment.」

Outside the mountain gate of Fahong Temple.

Chen Xuan had arrived. Tall and with a calm expression, he looked up at the temple before him.

The entire temple was exceedingly strange.

It was situated in a ravine within a black mountain range.

Without someone who knew the way to guide them, an ordinary person would find it nearly impossible to locate.

"Elder Yun, our abbot says the pill is still being refined, so it’s no use being anxious. Besides, according to our agreement, once the pill is complete, it must be handed over to our Fahong Temple to study for one year. We will only give you the pill after our research is complete!"

A monk stepped forward and said.

"There’s no use telling me that. The pill isn’t mine anymore."

The Yun family patriarch, Yun Yi, broke into a smile.

"Not yours anymore?"

The monk paused, inwardly delighted. "Does this mean you’re willing to gift the pill to our Fahong Temple?"

"Gift it to Fahong Temple? In your dreams."

The Yun family patriarch smiled playfully. "After failing to steal it in secret, is Fahong Temple now planning to rob us in broad daylight?"

"Amitabha Buddha. Elder Yun, I know you are a respected elder, but you shouldn’t insult Fahong Temple like this!"

The monk, Huikong, said righteously.

"Alright, alright. Keep talking tough. Let’s see if you can all keep it up in a little while!"

The Yun family patriarch grinned and pointed at Chen Xuan. "I’ll be honest, I’ve already given the pill to this powerhouse. Whatever you have to say, say it to him."

"Oh?"

Huikong’s expression shifted as he turned to Chen Xuan. "Sir, according to the rules of Fahong Temple, any pill we refine must be studied by us for one year, free of charge..."

"No one is permitted to study my pill."

Chen Xuan looked at the monk, his voice calm. "Also, you’re too low-ranking. Have someone in charge come out to speak."

Huikong’s expression changed. "Sir, aren’t you being a bit too tyrannical? This is the territory of Fahong Temple. For countless years, no one has ever been able to defy our rules."

"Forget it. I’m done talking. I’ve decided it’s better to subdue everyone first, and then wait for my pill."

Chen Xuan said.

Before Huikong could even react, a golden flame flared to life in Chen Xuan’s palm. He pressed it onto Huikong’s shoulder, causing the monk’s face to contort in pain.

FWOOSH!

"AHH!"

A bloodcurdling scream rang out as his body was instantly engulfed in golden flames, burning fiercely and horrifically.

[...Retribution Points +100,000!]

"All cut from the same cloth. It’d be a shame not to kill them."

Chen Xuan took a step and walked directly into the temple.

Hearing the commotion, the inside of the temple erupted into chaos.

Countless monks rushed out, converging on the square.

Monks from the Precepts Hall, the Arhat Hall, and the Dharma Hall all rushed out.

The heads of the three great halls all appeared not far from Chen Xuan.

"Amitabha Buddha!"

Liao Chen, head of the Precepts Hall, raised a single hand, his expression shifting. "Yama Chen, why have you come to our Fahong Temple on a killing spree? Fahong Temple has always been dutiful and has never offended you, has it?"

"Never offended me? That’s not necessarily true!"

Chen Xuan grinned and called over the monk he had been controlling. "This man is from Fahong Temple, isn’t he?"

"This..."

The group of monks hesitated, unsure of what Chen Xuan was planning to do.

’Could Hui Ming have really betrayed them?’

’But that’s impossible!’

’Hui Ming’s will is as firm as iron. No matter what methods were used, it should have been impossible to make him betray them...’

"Come on, repeat what you said before."

Chen Xuan said calmly, looking at the controlled Hui Ming.

"My name is Hui Ming. I am from Fahong Temple. I came on the elders’ orders to stall the Yun family. The abbot plans to monopolize the Sacred Source Heaven Repairing Pill and feared the Yun family would come demanding it later, so he incited Tianling Palace and Longshan City to move against the Yun family..."

Hui Ming muttered, speaking quickly.

The faces of all the monks changed.

"Utter nonsense!"

Liao Yin, the head of the Arhat Hall, roared furiously, "Our Fahong Temple would never do such a thing! We are men of the cloth, believers in the Buddha! Hui Ming, you ungrateful wretch, how dare you bite the hand that feeds you! Get lost!"

BOOM!

With a wave of his sleeve, an invisible surge of True Essence shot out, heading straight for Hui Ming.

He intended to strike him dead.

But in the instant it arrived, the True Essence was intercepted and instantly neutralized by Chen Xuan.

"Not so fast."

Chen Xuan said calmly, "You say Fahong Temple didn’t do it? That’s fine. When the pill is finished, I must take it. I forgot to tell you, the Yun family has already given the Sacred Source Heaven Repairing Pill to me. It’s my property!"

"Given to you?"

The faces of the three hall heads changed again, their expressions a mixture of shock and horror.

’That crafty Yun Yi!’
