Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1352: Chapter 1349 Jin Jue (First Update)

The whole venue fell silent.

The girl who had just been bound in mid-air by the Green-faced Ghost fell directly to the ground, but she seemed unaware, and instead stared blankly at the other side of the street.

The monk and the village elder of this small town couldn’t help but turn their heads to look as well.

Then, amidst the shifting darkness, a boy in white slowly emerged.

The boy had a faint smile on his face, making his eyes appear even brighter.

The appearance of this boy left many in the town feeling like they were treading on thin ice, unsure if he was a human or a ghost, friend or foe.

Only the monk was slightly taken aback, then looked keenly at the boy.

The boy who appeared was naturally Xue An.

He had followed the monk all the way here, feeling more astonished the more he watched.

Because he constantly felt a hint of peculiarity about the monk, although he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was strange.

So Xue An did not reveal himself, merely watching quietly from the side.

Until these fierce ghosts appeared, Xue An saw the monk charging ahead without hesitation, even preparing to sacrifice himself for the law, only then did he step in to help him out.

But just as Xue An had crossed halfway down the street, the darkness suddenly surged wildly, and a black light silently appeared beside Xue An, thrusting downward.

Everything happened so swiftly that no one had time to react.

But before the black light could touch Xue An’s body, a formless pressure suddenly erupted, shattering the black light into pieces.

A piercing wail echoed from the darkness, then a black shadow dashed away into the distance.

But before it could fly far, Xue An casually waved his hand.

Boom!

The black shadow exploded silently, dissipating into the darkness.

With the disappearance of the black shadow, the entire town seemed to break free from a layer of mist, making everyone feel a sense of relief, and even their breathing became much smoother.

Having done all this, Xue An calmly walked forward, giving the monk a slight smile.

”I never thought I would encounter a Buddhist cultivator here!”

The monk also smiled, then clasped his hands together, ”Thank you, benefactor!”

The dishes on the table were not particularly exquisite, could even be described as simple, and the jug of wine seemed to be homemade turbid wine.

But this was already the best thing the town’s residents could offer.

At this moment, Xue An sat in the center, accompanied opposite by the monk.

And the village elder along with many residents stood at a distance, curiously observing the two of them.

Xue An, especially, received the majority of the attention.

After all, the power he just displayed was too astonishing; those fierce ghosts may not have been particularly strong, but they were minions under the local Ghost Master, yet they were eradicated without being able to fight back in front of this young boy.

Such power, combined with his age, naturally left many curious and in awe.

Xue An ignored these gazes, gently rotating the wine cup in his hand, watching the monk opposite him leisurely eating the simple meal and drinking the turbid wine, and suddenly smiled.

”Aren’t monks not supposed to drink?”

The monk did not pause, ”Since the benefactor offers it, I must plant blessings for them!”

”What if the offering is poison?” Xue An said flatly.

The monk looked up at Xue An, revealing a smile, ”That would be the same!”

Xue An gave the monk a deep look, ”As far as I know, this world is at odds with Buddhist cultivators, and none have appeared before. What’s your plan?”

The monk set down his chopsticks, his expression unchanged, but with lowered eyes, he said, ”The benefactor is mistaken. Buddhist cultivators are never in conflict with any world. What are in conflict are always people’s hearts!”

Xue An gave a noncommittal smile, ”These platitudes, do you think I would believe them?”

The monk also smiled, ”The benefactor is a person of great wisdom and deep understanding, surely these principles are clear to you!”

Xue An’s eyebrows gradually raised, coldly looking at this monk.

The monk smiled innocently.

After a moment, Xue An withdrew his gaze, ”But I don’t know your dharma name!”

The monk was silent for a long while, then slowly spoke two words, ”Jin Jue!”

”Jin Jue...” Xue An repeated the name several times softly, then with a half-smile said, ”Judging by the young master’s actions, it seems you intend to transform these fierce ghosts?”

”Why not?” Jin Jue raised his eyebrows and asked.

Xue An looked at this monk with ordinary appearance but exceptionally clear eyes, and sighed lightly, ”I know you Buddhists always carry a heart of compassion, but you must understand, the other side belongs to the Ghost Race renowned for greed and cruelty!”

Jin Jue smiled, ”In my eyes, there’s no distinction between Ghost Race and Human Clan!”

Xue An was momentarily flustered by this, but quickly leaned back in his chair, speaking indifferently, ”You think there’s no difference, then what do you say about that feeding ground earlier?”

When Xue An eradicated those fierce ghosts, he also absorbed their memories.

Through this, he understood that the place he just witnessed was not a battlefield but the feeding ground of the local Ghost Master.

As for what a feeding ground is...

As the name suggests, it is where this Ghost Master dines.

This Ghost Master is formed from condensed resentment, and usually loves to consume living souls, especially the vengeful souls of those who died in battle, which is why the battlefield became his regular feeding ground.

That’s why so many skeletal remains were buried beneath.

Hearing Xue An’s questions, Jin Jue remained silent for a moment, then pressed his palms together and said, ”Transforming is not easy, but it doesn’t mean there’s no hope!”

”Transforming isn’t easy? Haha, have you considered that if this Ghost Master is transformed, what happens to the vengeful souls of those who died in battle? Will laying down the butcher knife and achieving Buddhahood erase all debts?” Xue An said coldly.

Jin Jue shook his head, ”The benefactor is mistaken. The saying ’lay down the butcher knife and become a Buddha’ is merely a verse. Buddhism doesn’t have the power to erase causality. As you said, even if I transform this Ghost Master, he still must pay the price for his actions!”

Xue An said nothing, leaning back into the chair, his face half hidden in darkness, watching Jin Jue quietly.

Jin Jue sat there, his face completely composed.

After a while, Xue An finally smiled, ”Interesting, is this your path?”

Jin Jue nodded, ”It is!”

”That’s hard!”

”But someone has to do it, right?”

Jin Jue left!

When he left, he still carried his small bag with a rice bowl and a wooden fish inside. Besides that, he had nothing else.

The village elder sighed, ”What a good young master!”

Xue An withdrew his gaze, saying softly, ”A nice thought, but didn’t find the right method!”

Saying this, Xue An revealed a somewhat enigmatic smile, ”But I think we’ll meet again soon!”
