Chapter 2543

At this moment, there was movement inside the Buddhist hall. Lin Moyu said, "Xiao Mei, watch the show a little longer."

"Big Brother will help you with your illness in a moment. Don't be afraid; Big Brother is right by your side."

Xiao Mei took a deep breath, inhaling the scent on Lin Moyu. She trusted his words completely. "Xiao Mei is not afraid."

Lin Moyu allowed Xiao Mei to return to the real world while he remained in another dimension. Everything that had just happened was known only to the two of them. A majestic voice emanated from the Buddhist hall.

"Everyone, enter the Buddhist hall." The children, who had been sitting for a long time, rose one after another. Ignoring their numb legs, they filed into the Buddhist hall.

At this moment, hundreds of children were already standing inside the hall. These children were also under ten years old.

They came from four small Buddhist cities. The two groups of children combined numbered over a thousand.

The Poison Dragon, disguised as the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha, was looking at them with unkind eyes, while the real Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha stood with his back to the children, as if he could not bear to look. The Poison Dragon scanned them with his gaze.

His gaze was incredibly sharp; the children lowered their heads one by one, not daring to meet his eyes.

A deep, majestic voice emerged from his mouth: "You all suffer from the plague and are afflicted with serious illness."

"There is no way out. Today, this seat will take action to save you from your suffering."

"I hope you can repay this with piety. I can tell that not all of you are sincere."

"For those who are not sincere, my miraculous methods will naturally be ineffective. You must understand this." His words were like a curse, imprinted into their minds. Even when these children grew up, they would never forget them.

Lin Moyu knew what he was planning. He would not take all these thousands of children to refine into human pills.

Most of them would have their poison neutralized and be released. These children would tell others that the children who didn't return failed to be cured because they were not pious enough. The words of children, even though they were childish, were often more easily believed by people. With their testimony, no one would be suspicious. Coupled with the previous bewitchment, everyone would only think that it was truly because their own hearts were not sincere. The Poison Dragon had done this many times.

It had never gone wrong. The Poison Dragon continued, "Everyone, close your eyes."

"Chant the sutras." In an instant, all thousand children closed their eyes.

They began to chant. The sutra they chanted was very simple; it was just repeatedly chanting the name of the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha in different tones and at different speeds. The Poison Dragon waved, releasing a ball of green gas.

The green gas turned into sweet rain and fell. The poison on the children was immediately neutralized by the rain. This was the poison he had planted, so neutralizing it was effortless. In the blink of an eye, the poison in all the children was removed.

Subsequently, the Poison Dragon waved his hand again, and the thousand children fell to the ground one after another, unconscious.

The Poison Dragon walked to Xiao Mei's side in two steps, pulled the unconscious Xiao Mei out separately, and then said to the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha,

"It's your turn. You decide how many people to let go back."

"However, I'll warn you in advance: if you want to advance to Ancient Buddha, you need at least two hundred human pills."

"If you want to be one hundred percent safe, it's best to have three hundred human pills. According to our agreement, you want as many as I do." The Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha said in a low voice,

"I don't need your reminder; I understand. Why was this girl pulled out separately?"

The Poison Dragon said, "This little girl gives me an unusual feeling. You can take a look."

He threw Xiao Mei to the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha. The Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha waved, releasing a surge of Buddhist power that suspended Xiao Mei in mid-air.

He examined her carefully, and gradually, he also noticed Xiao Mei's unusual nature.

"This girl's soul is extraordinary. If I'm not mistaken, she should have some kind of special constitution." The Poison Dragon chuckled, "A special constitution is good."

"Maybe we can refine a special pill. We'll share it when the time comes." The Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha frowned.

"This kind of special constitution often carries great fortune. It's better to let her go back."

The Poison Dragon snorted, "Bullshit! What kind of great fortune? If she really had great fortune, would she be here?"

The Poison Dragon clearly did not believe in the concept of fortune. "Wait until I refine this girl into a human pill. Regardless of what special constitution she has, I'll swallow it all in one bite. Having said that, even if there really is some special constitution, maybe after I eat the human pill, I can have it too."

"Originally, I wanted to share it with you, but if you don't want it, then I won't be polite."

"Maybe after I eat it, my injuries will heal, and my bloodline can be restored."

"Stop the damn nonsense! Hurry up and get to work. Let go of those who should be released, and keep those who should be kept." The Poison Dragon gave the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha no face at all and spoke very rudely.

The Poison Dragon's strength was actually not as good as the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha's, and his soul was injured, further reducing his power. Yet he spoke with such confidence; clearly, he had other trump cards and was not truly afraid of the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha.

"Amitabha!"

The Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha sighed and chanted a Buddhist name.

He slowly stood up, turned around, and looked at the children lying all over the ground.

With pity in his eyes, he whispered, "It is all this Buddha's fault. I hope you do not blame me." Saying the kindest words while doing the most evil deeds.

This kind of person made Lin Moyu feel disgusted. The Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha walked to Xiao Mei's side, only half a step away from her.

Xiao Mei, who was unconscious, suddenly twitched her nose a few times and wailed out loud, "It smells too bad! I can't stand it!"

The Poison Dragon and the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha both looked shocked. Before they could react, Xiao Mei suddenly flew backward dozens of meters. Lin Moyu revealed his figure and caught Xiao Mei in his arms.

Xiao Mei greedily inhaled the scent on Lin Moyu's body and said, "Big Brother."

"He smells too bad; I couldn't help it." Lin Moyu held Xiao Mei.

He smiled and said, "He does smell a bit bad. Now Xiao Mei should understand clearly."

Xiao Mei was very smart. Although she was under ten years old, she understood everything.

Xiao Mei nodded. "They are all bad people. They want to refine us all into human pills and eat us."

Lin Moyu asked, "Then does Xiao Mei know who they are?"

Looking at the two almost identical Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddhas, Xiao Mei said with a touch of innocence, "One of them is the Country Lord, but I don't know about the other one."

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "The other one is naturally that dragon that was killed. Has Xiao Mei forgotten that little rabbit?"

Xiao Mei's eyes lit up. "So that dragon didn't die! The Country Lord has been lying to us all along."

Lin Moyu patted Xiao Mei's head. "So smart. Now you know, right?"

Xiao Mei nodded vigorously. "I know! Xiao Mei knows everything now. The Country Lord is a big liar." Just now, the Poison Dragon had knocked everyone unconscious, and Xiao Mei had seemingly passed out as well.

Lin Moyu had intervened, so Xiao Mei was actually awake. Originally, Lin Moyu had wanted to watch the show a bit longer, but he didn't expect Xiao Mei to be unable to stand the stench, so he had to reveal himself early. However, this was enough for now.

As long as Xiao Mei recognized the true colors of these two guys, it was fine. As for the other children, Lin Moyu had not intended for them to know the truth.

There was absolutely no need. This world was just like that; the truth was often only in the hands of a few.

Watching Lin Moyu and Xiao Mei talking recklessly, the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha and the Poison Dragon were full of vigilance.

Lin Moyu could appear here silently and move freely right under their noses; clearly, his strength far exceeded theirs.

The two did not dare to act rashly, not even daring to utter a challenge. After a while, the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha said to Lin Moyu, "This Senior, may I ask what brings you here?"

He felt that Lin Moyu's realm was definitely higher than his own, so he directly addressed him as Senior, being a bit respectful at this moment. It definitely wouldn't be wrong. Lin Moyu shook his head gently. "I have always thought the Buddhist Clan was hypocritical."

"Until I met you, I realized that what I thought before was still too understated."

"Your hypocrisy has reached an extremely high realm. If there were a Great Dao of hypocrisy, you would surely have attained it."

Lin Moyu's words were blunt and gave the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha no face at all, but the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha dared not get angry in the slightest.

The more direct Lin Moyu was, the less he dared to lose his temper. "Amitabha!"

The Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha chanted a Buddhist name. "Senior's lesson is correct. This old monk has indeed done many things wrong."

"In the future, I will definitely…" Lin Moyu interrupted him. "There is no need. You have no future." As he spoke, he pointed a finger, and the space around the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha twisted violently.

Bone Hell instantly appeared and swallowed him. The entire process was completed in an instant, in the blink of an eye.

The Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha had disappeared, without even letting out a scream. A mere Ancient Buddha, equivalent to a Human Race Heavenly Venerable, even if he was only half a step away from Ancient Buddha, was useless.

One second later, a severed hand fell from the twisted space and landed on the ground.

This was something Lin Moyu had deliberately left behind. The Poison Dragon was terrified out of his wits, his whole body trembling.

He dared not move a muscle there; he dared not flee. Lin Moyu could kill the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha in a wave of his hand. Why would he even try to flee? He figured that if he turned around, his life would already be gone.

Lin Moyu looked at the Poison Dragon. "Reveal your true form." The Poison Dragon did not even think.

He immediately revealed his true form. Now, whatever Lin Moyu said, he would do immediately.

Perhaps this way he could still save his life. The Poison Dragon's true form was exactly the same as the one under the statue outside the Buddhist city.

Lin Moyu said to Xiao Mei, "See? What you saw just now is this guy." Xiao Mei looked at the Poison Dragon. "It really is exactly the same."

Lin Moyu moved his mind, and the children who had fallen off the Buddhist ladder earlier were all released by him.

These children were also in an unconscious state, but the poison on them had not yet been neutralized. Lin Moyu flicked out several streams of Power of Life.

Right in front of the Poison Dragon, he directly neutralized the poison on these children. Seeing these children, the Poison Dragon was even more afraid of Lin Moyu. This showed that, back at the Buddhist ladder, Lin Moyu was already there. In other words, the things he had done before, and the things he had said, Lin Moyu knew them all. No wonder Lin Moyu would say the Dragon-Subduing Ancient Buddha was hypocritical.

Lin Moyu said, "Send these children back to their respective places, and then come back here."

"Don't think about escaping; you know you can't escape." The Poison Dragon naturally knew he couldn't escape, so he immediately nodded and said,

"As you command. This little dragon will send them back immediately." As he spoke, he sent these children back separately.

The children were brought by him, so he sent them back to where they came from. Not long after, these children had been sent back. The Poison Dragon obediently returned and lay down in front of Lin Moyu.

He did not dare to move. In the Buddhist hall, Lin Moyu held Xiao Mei.
