They really killed them!
When this news reached the higher levels, the faces of the people from the Heavenly Gate changed drastically, and the faces of the people from Buddhism also changed drastically.
No, he really killed them?
This method of killing is completely different from killing during combat.
When casualties occur during combat, everyone might be angry, but there's nothing that can be done; spells are indiscriminate.
But now, the other party has already surrendered, and you killed them under the situation where higher-ups were continuously applying pressure?
"Amitabha, Jingxin, what are you doing? Didn't I tell you to tell Mingfo Temple not to kill them?" Merit Buddha was furious.
Bodhisattva Jingxin was already numb.
"Buddha, this monk has repeatedly ordered, but that Fa Hui doesn't listen to me and acts arbitrarily."
"If he doesn't listen to you, can't you replace him!"
"Now Buddhism has killed the captives from the Heavenly Gate. Dao Traces Great Emperor hasn't come out yet. If he comes out and holds us accountable, who will bear the Great Emperor's wrath?"
Merit Buddha was so angry that his nose was crooked.
How could he be so foolish, so muddle-headed?
"Fa Hui felt that actually taking action would draw out Lu Ye. Lu Ye thought that Buddhism wouldn't dare to kill people from the Heavenly Gate, which is why he was so reckless. Now that they've actually killed them, he thinks Lu Ye will surrender."
"And the result?"
"Did he surrender?"
Bodhisattva Jingxin's face showed bitterness.
"No..."
"The Buddha is also dead..."
When Merit Buddha heard this, he almost couldn't catch his breath.
What to do?
At this moment, Merit Buddha felt a bit lost.
The Mingfo Temple is already crazy now, no, perhaps it should be said that Fa Hui is already crazy.
If he is told to stop, will he stop?
No, because things have come to this point, Fa Hui has no way out.
Even if he doesn't continue killing people from the Heavenly Gate next, he is still certain to die.
Because someone always needs to be the scapegoat, and saying 'scapegoat' isn't particularly appropriate, because he really did it.
However, Merit Buddha quickly came up with a countermeasure.
"Immediately contact the others in the Fifth Heaven, directly apprehend Fa Hui, and then release the people from the Heavenly Gate. All the blame is on Fa Hui for falling into a demonic obsession..."
He didn't even have time to finish his instructions before being directly interrupted by a huge booming sound.
"Buddhism, you deserve to die!"
The Heavenly Gate came with the intention of revenge this time, each one filled with grief and indignation, their killing intent soaring to the heavens.
They really think the Heavenly Gate is a pushover!
You Buddhists really dare to kill?
Buddhism, which has a Great Emperor whose status is unknown (dead or alive), actually dares to provoke the Heavenly Gate, which has a Great Emperor currently in his prime.
You are truly brave!
They started fighting.
The Sixth Heaven and Seventh Heaven are all fighting. Especially this time, the Heavenly Gate was truly enraged, directly escalating the intensity of the battle. Casualties occurred as soon as this wave of fighting began.
The Sixth Heaven has already contacted the people of the Fifth Heaven as quickly as possible.
The second person from the Heavenly Gate is dead!
The third is dead.
Before each person died, they would let Lu Ye hear their final words.
Fa Hui had already given up. They could say whatever they wanted, and they would be killed when the time came.
"Sect Leader, take good care of yourself. We died for a worthy cause!"
"Sect Leader, avenge us. I will follow you in my next life!"
"Sect Leader..."
The monks of Mingfo Temple watched with increasing alarm. Good heavens, is the Heavenly Gate so united now?
Even though Lu Ye is dead, not a single person has a complaint. What kind of joke is this?
Why is this happening?
Actually, how could they know that the deceased people from the Heavenly Gate were almost overjoyed, because someone had already told them through the Heavenly Mark that the Book of Life and Death in Hell was waiting for them. If they died, the Book of Life and Death would preserve their memories and prevent them from Reincarnation. They only needed to wait for Lu Ye to achieve Dao, and Lu Ye would naturally come to receive them.
In this world, there are only two things capable of receiving true spirits in this manner.
One is the Book of Life and Death.
The other is the Heavenly Book of Reincarnation.
In other words, although they have fallen now, they will not perish. When Lu Ye becomes powerful, and Lu Ye finds them again, what great benefits will they receive?
When the Sect Leader of the Sixth Heaven transmitted the message through the Heavenly Mark, his tone was filled with intense envy.
He said directly, how great would it be if he were the one who died?
So now, the people who are dying have no fear whatsoever, no psychological burden, because they know very well that dying is a gain, and the more tragically they die, the greater the potential gain.
Thinking about it this way, Buddhism is still a good person!
Fa Hui's eyes were bloodshot, no longer possessing the slightest demeanor of an accomplished monk, but more like a gambler with bloodshot eyes from losing!
The other monks gradually fell into despair. Lu Ye wouldn't come.
He is a hard-hearted person. The people of the Heavenly Gate are dying without regrets, yet he can remain indifferent. He has no heart!
A monk quietly approached Fa Hui.
Suddenly, he struck. A golden bracelet instantly flew towards Fa Hui to restrain him, splitting into two, then four, then eight, firmly binding Fa Hui.
Fa Hui's bloodshot eyes suddenly looked at the person who attacked.
"Senior Brother, don't blame me. Bodhisattva Jingxin told me to temporarily restrain you. He said we cannot continue killing people from the Heavenly Gate. Now, the people of our Buddha in the Sixth Heaven and Seventh Heaven are already suffering heavy casualties. For every person from the Heavenly Gate who dies now, we lose more than a thousand people from Buddhism."
"So, you should rest!"
"Attacking the Abbot, Faming, how dare you! Release me immediately!" Fa Hui said angrily.
"Senior Brother, you have led Mingfo Temple down the wrong path. We cannot watch you continue to make mistakes!"
"Arrest Faming for me! I did not do anything wrong. If I don't do this now, if Lu Ye is not eliminated by us, then all that awaits Mingfo Temple is destruction!"
"We have no way out now; we can only continue down this path!"
"Arrest Faming for me!"
But as Fa Hui roared, none of the Arhats moved. Their gazes were incredibly complex.
They seemed to have realized that threatening Lu Ye with the lives of the Heavenly Gate people was a path that simply wouldn't work.
This path was wrong.
"What do you mean?" Fa Hui looked at the scene where no one moved, his eyes gradually clearing.
No, what do you mean?
"Senior Brother, this path seems to be truly wrong. Turn back from ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) your misguided path!"
The Arhat who was initially the most vocal about killing the Heavenly Gate people also couldn't help but earnestly persuade him at this time.
"Yes, yes! You should turn back from your misguided path. I also felt this was inappropriate before, but alas..."
"Senior Brother, this is your mistake. As monks, we should be compassionate. Treating Fellow Daoists like this is indeed wrong. When the time comes, I'll have to trouble Senior Brother to apologize."
Fa Hui listened to these seemingly righteous words of persuasion.
He thought about the behavior of the Heavenly Gate people before their death.
The people of the Heavenly Gate were implicated and died, yet they faced death as if returning home.
Now, these people from Mingfo Temple, who followed his opinion and chose this path, are placing all the responsibility solely on him.
Compared to others, the difference can be so vast...
