In the courtyard.

    Chen Yun has already returned to the appearance of a flowing green robe.

    He extended his hand to lift the huge brown bear from the water and threw it heavily onto the field.

    Poof! The brown bear transformed from the novice monk fell heavily to the ground, stirring up dust that flew everywhere.

    Zhao Hongyin, Dushi, Zhao Kuangji and Wang Paidu were originally kneeling on the ground worshipping Chen Yun.

    Suddenly, he saw a big brown bear fall to one side.

    Even though they knew the bear was transformed by the novice monk, they were all so scared that they trembled with fear.

    Chen Yun sensed the frightened expressions of everyone. With his hands behind his back, he floated away while calming everyone with words: "Do not be afraid, I have sealed this evil monk's abilities and he cannot harm you any longer."

    Zhao Hongyin hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you for the magical sword to defeat the demons."

    Dushi, Zhao Kuangji, Wang Guanshi, and the others knelt there and bowed their heads.

    Chen Yun treated ordinary people very well, nodded smilingly and said, "You don't need to show so much respect. Get up, please."

    Zhao Hongyin, Dushi, Zhao Kuangji, and Wang Guanshi along with about 60 other people carefully stood up.

    At this moment, Wu Xingde hurried forward to bow, "Junior Wu Xingde, to pay my respects to Mr. Chen."

    Chen Yun waved his hand and said, "There's no need for so much ceremony."

    Wu Xingde respectfully asked: "May I ask, Mr. Sir, how should we deal with these demons and devils?"

    Upon hearing this question.

    The four demons and devils all turned to look at him.

    Each person's eyes were filled with the desire to survive.

    Chen Yun narrowed his eyes and looked at the new monk, "This evil monk bet his life with me, and now that he has lost, he should honor his promise."

    The new monk trembled all over, begging again in a desperate tone: "Mr. Chen, please spare my life! I have practiced hard for hundreds of years, and I hope you can remember the difficulty of my cultivation and spare my life."

    Chen Yun looked at him and coldly laughed, "Do you really think I want to kill you? You, this evil monk, haven't realized that you have gone astray. I am ordering your death to save your life!"

    Ah?

    How can letting the new monk die be considered as saving his life?

    Zhao Hongyin, Dushi, Zhao Kuangji, and Wang Guanshi and the others were somewhat confused by what they heard.

    Even Wu Xingde, who was a practitioner, couldn't understand and looked at Chen Yun with a confused expression on his face.

    The new monk himself seemed to not understand.

    He was startled and said, "What do you mean by that?"

    Chen Yun asked in return, "Were you able to meet the White-haired Buddhist Sage when you went up the mountain to collect herbs?"

    The new monk hastily replied: "Indeed."

    Chen Yun asked again, "Tell me about what happened that day."

    The new monk knew that his life and death were at stake at this moment, so he dared not conceal anything and honestly said: "On that day, I went up the mountain to collect herbs. I accidentally entered a mysterious cave. At first, the cave was pitch black, but it gradually became brighter. I walked about three miles and found a small hole next to the cave. The water was clear and could be seen bottomlessly. At the corner of the stream, there was a fierce wind, shaking the leaves and branches of pine trees. Under the big pine tree, there was a grass hut where a monk with white eyebrows was meditating. He was holding a bell instrument and a lamp. I lightly knocked on the bell instrument, disturbing his meditation. Later that day, that White-haired Buddhist Sage gave me some mountain spring water and mountain fruits and taught me a major method. From then on, I have not seen him again."

    It sounds like there's nothing special about it.

    Zhao Hongyin, Dushi, Wu Xingde, and others were even more puzzled.

    Chen Yun asked for the third time, "Are you really only remembering that much?"

    The new monk quickly recalled that night, and hurriedly said: "That evening, the White-haired Buddhist Sage had me stay in his grass hut. I was worried he would have no place to stay. Who knew he would suddenly sit on a tree branch and recite the Lotus Sutra. Just as I was listening intently, the White-haired Buddhist Sage's recitation turned into cursing. It was a loud rebuke! He said, 'You these flat-nosed beasts, why are you here to harm people and scare them? Quickly go back to your deep mountain forest! Without his permission, do not come out again.'"

    Upon hearing this, the crowd looked at each other without exception.

    Chen Yun said: "Even if he had no place to stay, why did he sit on the branch of a tree? Why did he tell those flat-nosed beasts not to come out and scare people? And especially that sentence, 'Not allowed without his permission to come out again.' Did you not feel anything strange for so many years?"

    The new monk suddenly realized, "Mr. Chen, do you mean?"

    Chen Yun nodded slightly, "Yes, that White-haired Buddhist Sage is a transformed flat-nosed beast. He turned into the appearance of a White-haired Buddhist Sage and taught you demonic powers, confusing your mind and causing you to do evil things over the years. Now, I have suppressed the demonic Qi in your body with my own Qi Dan, which makes you able to become clear-minded. Otherwise, you would still be confused."

    The new monk finally understood why a person of the Buddhist tradition would have done so many wicked things in secret over the years and why he would come to seize a little remaining immortal Qi from the immortal's reincarnation.

    The new monk suddenly burst into tears and sobs, "I have been misled and didn't realize it. I never thought I would commit such sins. It's not surprising that Mr. Chen said that it would be better for me to die, as it was saving me. Thank you, thank you for guiding me out of the wrong path."

    Chen Yun hummed, "In this way, you can go in peace?"

    The new monk appeared calm and smiled, "Please, Mr. Chen, kindly grant me a pass to the underworld."

    Chen Yun gently waved his sleeve.

    In the next moment, the brown bear stopped moving and slowly returned to human form.

    Seeing this, Wu Xingde couldn't help but admire Mr. Chen's sharp eyesight, able to discern even how the new monk had been manipulated by demons.

    This new monk had been controlled by demons, causing harm to ordinary people every day and night.

    Afterwards, the essence of ordinary people was sucked and refined by that demon to practice magic.

    It can be said that the new monk has committed heinous crimes.

    Now that he has come to his senses, perhaps he still has the opportunity to be reincarnated.

    It may take several lifetimes to wash away sins, but at least he won't be scattered soulless.

    If the new monk were to continue aiding the evil, what would happen?

    At that time, the demon would easily consume them without a second thought if they were to continue assisting the evil.

    It's feared that the new monk's sins would be too heavy to wash away.

    By then, he would undoubtedly be sentenced to the crime of being annihilated by the Buddhist underworld, and his soul would be scattered!

    Zhao Hongyin, Dushi, Zhao Kuangji, and Wang Guanshi were indeed not aware of all this.

    However, they could tell that this Chen deity possessed an unpredictable big law that even the ghosts and devils could not measure. Otherwise, he couldn't have known what the new monk had encountered.

    Chen Yun paid no attention to the reactions of the group and his gaze fell again on Kong Mo.

    Kong Mo was scared to death and his body was trembling all over, "Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen, I am human, not an evil demon. I am not an evil demon."

    Chen Yun's eyes looked calm as he gazed at him, "Although you are a human being, you practice demonic arts and are a demon king. However, you currently do not deserve to die. Someone will come to deal with you in the future. I will first destroy your demonic arts, and then you must leave here as soon as possible. If you dare to stay for another moment, I will summon heavenly thunder to blow your forehead and make sure that you can never be reborn again!"

    With that, he once again waved his sleeve.

    The originally young-looking Kong Mo turned into an old man with dignity in an instant.

    Even though his cultivation had been wasted and his face had become pale, he dare not say anything more. How could he, a lucky escapee from death, dare to speak up?

    Kong Mo rose to his feet and deeply bowed, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for sparing my life."

    After saying that, he stumbled and fell out of the room.

    Wu Xingde was quite curious and asked, "Sir, isn't Kong Mo the owner of the Kong family? How come he is also practicing demonic arts?"

    Zhao Hongyin, Dushi, Zhao Kuangji, and Wang Guanshi, among others, quickly pricked up their ears to listen to what was happening.

    Chen Yun held his sleeve and pondered for a moment before saying, "Kong Mo's real name was Liu Mo. In his early years, he was a poor beggar. Later, the owner of the Kong family, Kong Guangsi, pitied him and took him in as a servant, giving him the surname Kong. But little did anyone know, this Kong Mo was cunning beyond measure. He coveted the wealth and prestige of the Kong family and therefore secretly practiced demonic arts. As a result, he almost completely destroyed the Kong family lineage. Only one child survived."

    Zhao Hongyin was outraged upon hearing that Kong Mo was such an ungrateful son and exclaimed, "This son is occupying someone else's nest. He is a detestable criminal. Master, why did you let him go?"

    Chen Yun's eyes were profound as he said, "It's time and fate. He hasn't reached the time of his death yet. As the saying goes, every debt has a head and every debt has a master. This son should die at the hands of a descendant of the Kong family. I cannot defy heavenly destiny or take over someone else's responsibility."

    Wu Xingde's heart was stirred by this sentence.

    He had always known that Chen Yun's cultivation was profound.

    But he had never imagined that this Mr. Chen, his cultivation was so profound that he had reached a deep level of understanding the way of heaven and its operations!

    Dushi, Zhao Kuangji, and Wang Guanshi also all understood, knowing that there were reasons why a deity would act so.

    Chen Yun's gaze fell on Hu Meiniang again, "You little demon, dare to disrupt the world? I have no choice but to send you to the west."

    Hu Meiniang panicked and called out urgently, "Mr. Chen, spare the demon's life! I am willing to obey your commands!"

    Chen Yun had nothing to say to such a pure demon, and he was originally going to kill her.

    Suddenly, he thought of something that changed his mind.

    Chen Yun nodded slightly and said, "The Taoist path values life. Considering your difficulty in cultivation, I will spare your life. But you must keep your promise. If the day comes when I need you to do something, you must do your utmost."

    Hu Meiniang didn't expect Chen Yun to actually spare her life and was overjoyed, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for sparing my life. In the future, I will do anything without hesitation."

    Chen Yun snapped his fingers and sent a stream of qi into the demon's body, "I have cast a spell on you. From now on, you must not cause harm to the world. If you dare to do so, you will surely die immediately."

    Hu Meiniang bowed again in gratitude, "Thank you, Mr. Chen. Meiniang will never cause trouble again."

    Wu Xingde, Zhao Hongyin, and Dushi didn't know why Chen Yun had spared Hu Meiniang.

    However, they knew that high-level practitioners were not to be disturbed with questions, so they didn't speak up.

    Chen Yun didn't allow Hu Meiniang to leave this place. He had something else to ask her later.

    He looked towards Zhuge Yansong.

    Zhuge Yansong saw Hu Meiniang's successful plea for mercy.

    He thought that as long as he was polite, he could save his own life.

    He quickly pleaded, "Mr. Chen, spare my life. I am human, and if you grant me another chance, I will certainly serve you in the future."

    Chen Yun chuckled lightly, "You've done so many bad things. I can't forgive you!"

    Zhuge Yansong's expression froze instantly, truly unaware why Chen Yun could spare the lives of people like Kong Mo, who was despicable, and Hu Meiniang, a demon, but was unwilling to give him a chance.

    It's a pity that Zhuge Yansong will never know the specific reason.

    After speaking, Chen Yun directly activated the Thunder Palm, wiping out the target completely.

    If it were a normal person, he wouldn't be so harsh.

    Just that Zhuge Yansong pretended to be a god or ghost and caused chaos, resulting in the death of thousands of people.

    How could Chen Yun spare him?

    In just a moment, Chen Yun had killed two demons, ruined the cultivation of one demon cultivator, and subdued a fox spirit.

    Zhao Kuangji secretly envied him, thinking that a man should be like this.

    Zhao Hongyin and Wang Guanshi and the others all sighed in admiration, marveling at the great power of Mr. Chen's Taoist arts.

    However, Dushi asked carefully, "Excuse me, Mr. Chen, are you the deity who dreams of giving me children in my dreams?"

    Oh?

    Is this Mr. Chen the deity of giving children in Dushi's dreams?

    Zhao Hongyin, Wang Guanshi, and the others were stunned, unable to believe what they saw.
