Chapter 807: Buddha, Demon!

Editor: Atlas Studios

Looking around, the entire hall was spacious and bright.

What greeted his eyes was a golden Buddha statue that was a few meters tall. It gave off a sense of dignity without looking aggressive.

In front of the Buddha statue was a bronze incense burner. Wafts of green smoke floated from it, making one feel calm.

Various frescoes of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats were depicted on the walls.

The circular staircase extended all the way to the ninth floor.

On every floor, there were huge bookshelves.

The bookshelf was filled with all kinds of Buddhist books, martial arts manuals, medical books, and other ancient books.

After all, this was the first time Yang Luo, Xu Ying, and Prajna had entered the Shaolin Sutra Depository, so they were shocked by the scene in front of them.

At this moment, a rustling sound came from not far away.

Yang Luo and the other three looked up and saw an old monk sweeping the floor not far away with a long broom.

The old monk was thin and wore a light gray monk robe. His eyebrows and beard were all white.

Although this old monk looked old, he was hale and hearty and had a sharp gaze.

This old monk was the eminent monk who had sent Chou Jianchi, Feng Jianming, and Li Tai’e flying three days ago and saved Bujie.

It was Bujie’s master, Master Xuanku.

“Master, I’m here to see you!”

Bujie’s eyes turned red as he knelt down.

Master Xuan Ku sighed softly and waved the broom in his hand.

And in that instant!

A powerful gust of wind swept towards the door!

There was a loud clang!

The two doors closed!

Master Xuanku said softly, “Benefactors, please come upstairs.”

With that, Master Xuanku put down the broom and walked upstairs.

Yang Luo and the other three quickly followed.

Soon, Yang Luo and the others followed Master Xuanku to the ninth floor of the Scripture Depository.

The ninth floor was spacious and bright. Through a few huge open windows, one could see the undulating mountains, dense forests, and winding rivers. It made one feel the vastness of the world.

There was also a low table by a window with a tea set on it.

There was a teapot on a small stove. At this moment, the water was already boiling, making gurgling sounds as wisps of white steam rose.

Beside the short table were five futons.

Seeing this scene, Yang Luo was stunned.

Obviously, Master Xuanku should have known that they were here long ago, so he had brewed tea and placed the futons, waiting for them to come.

Walking to the table, Master Xuanku raised his hand, “Benefactors, please sit.”

After Yang Luo and the other three sat down…

Master Xuanku poured a cup of tea for Yang Luo and the others.

“Thankyou, Master!”

Yang Luo thanked him and took a sip of tea.

He really did not like the others from Shaolin Temple.

However, he still respected the old monk in front of him.

Firstly, this old monk was the master of Bujie.

Secondly, this old monk clearly had extraordinary abilities, but he chose to hide his strength and was willing to be a cleaner in the Scripture Depository.

Master Xuanku looked at Bujie with a kind expression and asked, “Bujie, are your injuries better?”

Bujie pressed his palms together and replied respectfully, “Thank you for your concern, Master. My injuries are already much better.”

“That’s good.”

Master Xuanku nodded.

Yang Luo put down his teacup and looked at Master Xuanku. He asked,

“Master, you should have known that we came to Shaolin just now, right?

Also, you should know about my fight with the Shaolin Temple Master and the others just now, right?”

“Of course I know.”

Master Xuanku replied.

“Then why didn’t you help?”

Yang Luo asked and continued, “If you had attacked, I’m afraid I would not be your match.”

Master Xuanku let out a long sigh and said, “The current Shaolin Temple is no longer what it used to be. The people of the Shaolin Temple are all arrogant and domineering now. They lack the humility that Buddhist disciples should have.

If this poor monk attacked again, it would increase their arrogance even more. They should be taught a lesson. Only then would they know that there was always someone better.

Moreover, I’ve been here for many years. I’ve long stopped doing all the fighting and killing in the pugilistic world.”

Yang Luo sighed and said, “Master, although you live in a small Scripture

Depository, you know the current situation of the entire Shaolin Temple like the back of your hand.

Moreover, you’re powerful, but you’re not competitive. Your heart is as calm as water, and you’re not easily alarmed.

I’m really impressed.”

Master Xuanku waved his hand and said, “I’m just old and have seen too many people and things. That’s why I have this mental state. This is nothing.”

As he spoke, Master Xuanku asked, “May I know why you are looking for me this time?”

Yang Luo said, “Master, I want to know what secrets Bujie has within him.

Why did Bujie have such a situation in the Myriad Swords Gate three days ago?” Master Xuanku said slowly, “Actually, I only know a little about Bujie’s secret. Back then, when I was traveling, I discovered that there was a baby in swaddling clothes in the mountain. It was Bujie.

Therefore, I brought Bujie back to Shaolin to raise him.

Later on, I gradually realized that Bujie’s spiritual root was extremely good and was filled with Buddhism. He was born a Buddha, which also surprised me.

However, when Bujie slowly grew up, I realized that not only was Bujie filled with Buddhism, but he also hid a demonic nature.

I once tried to help Bujie dissolve the demonic nature, but I couldn’t do it at all. Bujie’s Buddhist and demonic natures were innate and could not be resolved at all.

In other words, Bujie is both a natural Son of Buddha and a natural demon…”

After hearing Master Xuanku’s words…

Yang Luo, Xu Ying, and Prajna were stunned.

They did not expect Bujie to have such a huge secret inside himself!

Born as a Buddha!

Born to beadevil!

It was simply too strange for a person to have Buddhism and demonic natures at the same time!

As for Bujie, he was also dumbfounded. He looked at Master Xuanku with a dumbfounded expression.

He gulped and said in a daze, “Master, is what you said true? I have both Buddhist and demonic natures in my body?”

“Of course it’s true.”

Master Xuanku nodded gently.

“Holy shit!”

Bujie could not help but curse, “In other words, I can f*cking become a Buddha or a demon?

Isn’t this f*cking incongruous?!”

“Bujie, don’t speak nonsense!”

Master Xuanku shouted softly.

Bujie was so frightened that he quickly shut his mouth.

Yang Luo, Xu Ying, and Prajna laughed inwardly.

Bujie was usually lawless, but he was quite obedient in front of Master Xuanku.

Master Xuanku continued, “It’s precisely because of this that Bujie’s personality is very contradictory.

He is both upright and kind, but also filled with evil and killing intent.

I’ve been trying to enlighten him all these years, but it hasn’t been very effective.

He was unwilling to abide by any of the Buddhist rules and regulations, and he refused to change them.

It was precisely because of this that the sect master and the others were furious and expelled him from Shaolin Temple.

However, I know that this has something to do with Bujie’s nature, so I didn’t blame him.

Moreover, I think it’s good to let Bujie leave the mountain.

Without these restrictions, perhaps he can truly find his heart and find his own Dao…”
