We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real?

”Miguu?” Little Hundun was startled and hurriedly flew toward its mistress but at this moment, a man had already stepped through the air and reached out to catch Wangxin.

”Miguu!” Looking at this man, little Hundun rubbed its eyes with its wings, doubting whether it had seen incorrectly.

Xiao Mo caught Wangxin as she fell, then walked step by step into the courtyard, entered the young girlʼs chamber, and placed her on the bed.

After Xiao Mo left the courtyard, he summoned a formation diagram.

The formation within the diagram quickly separated and covered the entire courtyard.

Little Hundun was startled and hurriedly flew toward the courtyardʼs exit, only to crash against the barrier, unable to get out.

”Miguu miguu!” Little Hundun angrily waved its wings within the barrier, as if denouncing Xiao Mo but Xiao Mo acted as if he did not see it. He turned and bowed respectfully to Xu Jing, ”Master Xu Jing, it has been a long time.”

”Amitabha Buddha,” Xu Jing chanted a Buddhist name and returned the salute with palms pressed together. ”Benefactor Xiao, it has been a long time.”

Looking at the man before him, Xu Jing had not expected that Xiao Mo would enter Kongnian Temple as if entering an uninhabited land. The templeʼs formations had not sensed anything at all.

That little boy from back then had actually grown to such a degree.

”Would Master Xu Jing care to walk together?” Xiao Mo asked.

”Please,” Xu Jing extended his hand.

Xiao Mo nodded and walked down the mountain together with Xu Jing.

The two walked through the mountain forest together. Xiao Mo slowly spoke, his tone carrying apology:

”The formation this junior has set up is the inherited treasure of the Heaven Formation Sect. For three years, no one can enter or exit. This junior acted on his own initiative. I hope Master will forgive me.”

”Where does Benefactor Xiao speak of?” Xu Jing shook his head. ”For Wangxin, this may be for the best. However, I wonder why Benefactor Xiao has come to visit Kongnian Temple?”

”Nothing else, just wanting to come persuade Master to surrender and incidentally see Wangxin,” Xiao Mo said truthfully.

”Persuade to surrender?”

Xiao Mo nodded, ”Master Xu Jing is highly virtuous and respected, a true eminent monk. Even my master praised you highly, saying that among the worldʼs true monks, only Master Xu Jing exists.”

”Your honorable master overpraises me.”

”Whether it is overpraising or not, this junior naturally knows in his heart,” Xiao Mo stopped walking and looked at Master Xu Jing. ”Therefore, this junior also does not want to raze Kongnian Temple to the ground. If Master is willing to surrender to me and honor me as master, Kongnian Temple can be as it was before and will continue to be so in the future.”

”Many thanks for Benefactor Xiaoʼs kind intentions,” Xu Jing smiled faintly. ”But Benefactor Xiao, even if this old monk agrees, the others will not agree. This old monk cannot watch them fight desperately with the demonic path while I myself stand by with folded arms. Please forgive me, Young Master Xiao.”

”This junior understands,” Xiao Mo nodded. This was also within his expectations. ”Since this is so, then we shall meet again on the battlefield. This junior will take his leave first.”

Xiao Mo bowed respectfully, turned, and walked down the mountain.

”Benefactor Xiao...” Just as Xiao Mo walked several steps, Xu Jing called out.

”Benefactor Xiao is not a demon head, nor someone who covets the Western Regionʼs fortune. Why does Young Master Xiao act this way?”

Xiao Mo turned around and looked at Xu Jing, ”When Wangxin explained Buddhist teachings to this junior, she once said that Master Xu Jing had a saying, every person has their own Buddha.”

”Precisely so,” Xu Jing nodded.

Xiao Mo looked toward the direction of Kongnian Templeʼs great hall, ”For most people, they burn incense to pray for blessings. Their Buddha sits in that great hall. But... that is not my Buddha.”

Xiao Mo turned around and smiled at Xu Jing.

”So I want to see what my Buddha will be like.”
