Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Powerful! Fahui’s Overwhelming Suppression of the God of White Wind_1
Fahui sat on top of Naga, looking dignified in his Buddhist appearance. The Kasaya draped over him, the Tin Staff resting on Naga’s head, and various treasures all indicated that Fahui hadn’t been idle over these three days.
"Are the three of us enough? Don’t we need to bring these temple protectors?" Wang Linchi asked, looking at the Headless Ghost beside him.
"The duty of a protector is to guard the temple. The God of White Wind wouldn’t require such a large entourage," Fahui replied, seeming unconcerned about the God of White Wind.
Wang Linchi did not question this. After all, during these three days, the sometimes audible, sometimes inaudible voice of the God of White Wind was enough proof that the other party lacked sufficient power. Perhaps the previous command for demons and ghosts to attack the city had already exhausted its last bit of strength. Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been such quiet up to this point.
"Come sit down, Layman." Fahui invited Wang Linchi to ride on Naga. "With Naga’s abilities, we will reach there in no time." Otherwise, it would take a whole day if Wang Linchi were to run there himself.
Not only could Wang Linchi run faster than a horse, but his endurance was also better. However, compared to Naga, there was quite a difference.
"Alright then." Wang Linchi certainly wouldn’t refuse. Although Naga was a large cobra, the fact that it could fly gave him a chance to experience the sensation.
There was a disadvantage, though: the snake scales were too smooth. Unlike Fahui, who could sit as still as a mountain, Wang Linchi had to firmly grab hold of him. There was nowhere on Naga to grab, so who else could Wang Linchi hold onto but Fahui? If he carelessly slipped from the sky, it would be fine if Naga caught him. But if he wasn’t caught, all that would be left was Wang Linchi paste.
Once Wang Linchi was securely seated, Naga immediately soared into the clouds and mist. All Wang Linchi could see was a blurred landscape around him.
This Naga was likely not just a protector Dragon Crowd of Rooster Crow Temple; perhaps it even doubled as Fahui’s mount. Therefore, despite its fast flight, all turbulence was blocked by its Divine Skills. Wang Linchi felt as if he were walking on flat ground; the wide snake body was not as slippery as he had imagined.
Within moments, Naga had reached its destination.
"This is the Inch God Power; a thousand miles are but an inch away," Fahui explained, perceiving Wang Linchi’s confusion.
Only then did Wang Linchi understand. So it used an unscientific method!
he thought. No wonder I felt something was off; the speed and time were disproportionate."The God of White Wind is hiding here?" Wang Linchi asked, curious.
This was a lush and vibrant valley. Other than that, there was nothing special; there were many similar places nearby.
"Indeed. The main body of the God of White Wind is formed by a congregation of White Wind Bugs, and this entire valley is filled with them."
"Should a crisis arise, it only needs a single bug to escape to rise from the ashes."
Fahui seemed to know a lot about the God of White Wind. As for his source of information, Wang Linchi didn’t inquire, as it might involve Rooster Crow Temple.
"So, how do you plan to deal with it?" Wang Linchi asked curiously.
"Nothing special, just a Great Hand Seal," Fahui said nonchalantly.
Wang Linchi was about to ask what kind of Great Hand Seal it was when he noticed the sky darkening, as if something was blocking the sun. Looking up, he saw a giant palm manifest in the sky. It was this palm that was blocking the sun.
"Holy shit!"
As soon as Wang Linchi finished speaking, the Great Hand Seal crushed down into the valley. Instantly, a deafening explosion erupted, and dust scattered everywhere.
"Wait a minute," Wang Linchi questioned, "if you have this Great Hand Seal, and you’re all decked out in treasures, even bringing Naga along, isn’t this a bit overkill?"
"We’re not finished yet. If I could kill the God of White Wind with just one Great Hand Seal, why would I have mobilized such forces?" Fahui naturally knew that the God of White Wind would not die so easily. After all, it was a sacred being, born of heaven and nurtured by earth, additionally empowered by the Divine Dynasty; its strength was not to be underestimated.
Indeed, Fahui’s words were soon confirmed. Even before the Great Hand Seal had fully dissipated, they could hear the buzzing of countless flying insects.
"Traitor! You traitor!!!" a furious roar, accompanied by a rustling sound, erupted.
Countless streams of white poured out from beneath the Great Hand Seal, instantly devouring it completely. Subsequently, the streams transformed into a giant tornado rushing towards Wang Linchi and Fahui.
"Layman, please stand guard for me here. I’ll go meet it first," Fahui said. He then sent Wang Linchi down from Naga and urged Naga towards the God of White Wind.
Look at how eloquently he speaks, his EQ is through the roof... Wang Linchi thought. Indeed, speaking is an art. Although Fahui couldn’t tell lies, he could embellish things artistically, as long as the meaning was clearly expressed. To put it bluntly, it means: You’re too weak, so hide yourself well and don’t get caught in the crossfire.
"Evil creature, submit now!"
The battle erupted instantly. From afar, Wang Linchi could only see the white hurricane and the golden Buddhist light constantly interweaving. Then, he heard Fahui loudly shouting ’trash talk,’ continuously trying to disrupt the God of White Wind’s composure.
With things like this, he doesn’t even need Naga. Fahui alone could take down the God of White Wind.
Although Wang Linchi couldn’t see the specifics of the fight, under the combined assault of Fahui and Naga, the White Wind Bug hurricane—the main body of the God of White Wind—was gradually shrinking. It even tried to scatter and escape. However, the Great Hand Seal seemed not only to be for area attacks but also to contain some kind of barrier, enveloping the entire valley. Even though the God of White Wind had previously devoured it, it hadn’t destroyed or detected this barrier.
"You can’t kill me! If I fall here, the Divine Dynasty will dispatch someone to investigate. Once the truth is revealed, not only will you die without a burial place, but Black Rain City will also be turned to ashes!"
"You may not fear death, but have you considered the people of Black Rain City?"
The God of White Wind’s body had been battered and broken. Its plea for mercy was quite clever, emphasizing righteousness and clearly stating the stakes. The implication was: kill it, and the Divine Dynasty would seek revenge; spare it, and everyone could coexist peacefully. Even if they didn’t consider themselves, they should at least consider the common people.
"Hahaha! No matter how glib your tongue is today, you’ll still have to take a turn in my Purple Gold Bowl and serve before the Buddha’s altar!"
"If you sincerely repent, I can grant you a fruit of attainment. If you remain obstinate and continue to resist, then after I’ve killed you, the Divine Dynasty won’t be able to do anything to us." Fahui not only dismissed the threat but also counter-threatened the God of White Wind to surrender obediently, or else be killed directly.
Righteousness? Moral blackmail? You’re the one who killed people, yet you blame others for not meeting your conditions, thereby forcing you to kill—so it’s their fault?
"You... damn you!!!" The God of White Wind felt insulted. It had thought Fahui was going to kill it, but it hadn’t expected him to plan on converting it instead.
"Very well. Since you’re seeking death, you can’t blame this humble monk for eradicating a menace for the people." Fahui prepared to strike a killing blow without hesitation.
Equality for all sentient beings can be discussed later. Weren’t the people slaughtered in Black Rain City by the demons and ghosts driven by the God of White Wind also sentient beings?
BOOM!
The golden light exploded, and the White Wind Bug tornado shrank further.
At this point, the God of White Wind understood that Fahui genuinely intended to kill it.
"Wait! I am willing to enter Rooster Crow Temple! I am willing..." The God of White Wind wailed continuously.
"Venerable God, you carry deep karmic sins. This humble monk must help you eliminate these karmic burdens first; it won’t be too late for you to enter my Rooster Crow Temple then." Fahui showed no signs of stopping. You rejected the chance I gave you before. Now you want me to stop just because you say so? If you lose, just accept your beating honestly. You should be grateful to have your life spared; don’t expect anything more.
About half an hour later, the White Wind Bug tornado was completely dispersed, leaving no trace.
Wang Linchi was sitting in the distance. After he had gnawed through most of a pork knuckle, a large bag of melon seeds, and a large bottle of drink, Fahui finally returned, riding Naga and holding the Purple Gold Bowl in his hand. Inside the Purple Gold Bowl, a white, beetle-like bug lay prostrating in the center.
The God of White Wind indeed hadn’t died. It had merely been stripped of all its power, with only this single main body remaining. If this one died, it would truly be annihilated.
"The layman seems quite at ease," Fahui teased, glancing at the melon seed shells scattered on the ground.
"I had no choice. It’s all thanks to your formidable strength, Master Fahui." Wang Linchi was just a spectator; there wasn’t much for him to do.
"Thank you for your assistance today, Layman. Thanks to you, my Rooster Crow Temple will gain another Arhat." Joy was evident in Fahui’s eyes; clearly, the God of White Wind was of great value.
"Congratulations, congratulations," Wang Linchi also congratulated him.
Afterward, Naga carried Fahui and Wang Linchi away, leaving behind only a scene of devastation. Fortunately, no one lived here. In time, nature would heal all wounds.
