Chapter 344: Can sins and merits offset each other?

Tian Buyi stared at Zhang Xiaofan for a while, and suddenly said, "Don't you recognize me as your master?" His voice was very faint, and if you didn't listen carefully, you could hardly hear it.

Zhang Xiaofan trembled all over, and disappeared over the wall in an instant. When he appeared again, he was in front of Tian Buyi.

With a plop, she knelt in front of him, unable to suppress her emotions any longer, and said in a trembling voice, "Master."

How could he not see Tian Buyi's current state? If he couldn't see it, all the books he had read over the years would have been in vain.

"Xiao Fan, come back."

With this sound, the yard instantly became quiet. Even Bi Yao stopped what she was doing and stood not far behind Xiao Fan, watching quietly.

Zhang Xiaofan was silent for a long time before he said, "Master, I want to start a family."

Tian Buyi shuddered all over, inexplicably feeling like crying, but he had no tears to shed. He looked up at Bi Yao and asked, "Is that the girl?"

"Yes."

Tian Buyi waved at Bi Yao, signaling her to come over. Bi Yao hesitated, put away the sad flower, walked over timidly, stood in front of Tian Buyi, let him look at her, thought for a moment, and knelt beside Zhang Xiaofan.

She looked at Tian Buyi and wanted to call him, but she didn't know what to call him. Master? That wasn't her master. She was a little at a loss...

After hesitating for a long time, he finally uttered two words: "Elder."

"Hahaha." Tian Buyi found it quite funny looking at her. Is this still the same fierce girl from before?
Bi Yao's face flushed red, and she was about to cry because of her own stupidity. Did she call the wrong name? She was unsure, so she could only lower her head silently, timid and silent.

"Since you are going to get married, you must treat her well. She dared to block the sword for you back then. Don't let her down."

"Disciple, please remember this."

Then he knocked his head to the ground, and Bi Yao followed suit. This knock made Tian Buyi smile.

"Although we are enemies of different kinds, the Ghost King Sect also produced some talented people during the Great Monster Tribulation. When it comes to right and wrong, you and I are no different."

Tian Buyi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but swallowed it back again.

I wanted to say something about moving around for a long time in the future, but I couldn't say it. That would bring disaster to the younger generation. I couldn't help but sigh again.

Then Tian Buyi reacted and realized that maybe the person was going to die, and he had to face all the troubles.

He touched her body. It was the first time the girl called him, so he didn't want to let her leave empty-handed. He touched her all over, but he couldn't find anything that could be used as a gift.

A little embarrassing.

Lu Xueqi suddenly handed over a magic weapon quietly, a palm-sized Yin-Yang Pisces Taoist mirror, with three layers inside, middle and outside. The same sides of the three layers were mirrors, and the different sides were mirrors.

The inner layer is the ground, with eight characters engraved on it: Earth, Mountain, Water, Wind, Thunder, Fire, Marsh, and Sky.

The middle layer represents people, and is engraved with "rest", "birth", "injury", "stop", "scene", "death", "shock" and "open".

The outer layer is the sky, which is Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen and Dui.

For a moment, Tian Buyi was not sure what the specific function of this magic weapon was. He let it go and turned it around in his hand, only to find that there was the shadow of the Changshengtang Yin-Yang Mirror on it.

[I'm afraid it's not the magic weapon that Lao Qi modified from the Yin Yang Mirror. It makes sense.]

Tian Buyi raised his head and said, "A gift from an elder cannot be refused. Girl, take it."

Bi Yao glanced at Zhang Xiaofan, and seeing him nod, she did not refuse. She raised her hands over her head and said respectfully, "Thank you, Master."

Since Tian Buyi has acknowledged this relationship, it is only natural for him to follow Zhang Xiaofan and call him Master.

"Haha, Junior Brother Tian, ​​have you changed your allegiance in such a short time? Joining the Demonic Cult?!!"

The voice suddenly sounded, and everyone was startled. They turned around and saw Daoxuan standing at the gate of the yard, staring at them blankly.

Although he was covered in a black robe and a veil, his pair of blood-red eyes were frightening.

They still knew that this person was Daoxuan!

Daoxuan looked at them one by one and laughed strangely twice, but he was not afraid.

He fixed his eyes on Lu Xueqi, "She saved you? Then, what about Murong Ji?"

After saying this, Daoxuan looked around but did not see Murong Ji.

Tian Buyi snorted coldly, the Red Spirit Immortal Sword lit up, and he took a step forward. Lu Xueqi did the same, and he and Tian Buyi formed a horn with each other and confronted Daoxuan.

Zhang Xiaofa pulled Bi Yao into the charity cemetery, took a quick glance, and saw the coffins inside the cemetery, especially Murong Ji inside the coffin.

He was delighted. At this moment, the sound of fighting had already started outside. Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly arranged Bi Yao next to Murong Ji's coffin.

"Seventh Senior Brother, please help me take care of Bi Yao, I will go help Master."

"Go." Murong Ji said softly, his voice was hoarse and very unpleasant.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Seven." Zhang Xiaofan thanked him, jumped up, and leaped outside. When he landed, he was as light as a feather and made no sound.

Zhang Xiaofan first observed the battle situation, looking for an opportunity to join the battle, and before he could start, Daoxuan's Seven Star Sword Technique forced the two men to break through with one sword.

Lu Xueqi's face turned pale. This was the feeling she had when she was fighting Murong Ji, as if all her moves had been seen through. If Daoxuan was strong enough, he could break every one of her moves.

"Oh! You guys want to kill me? Can you do it?"

Tian Buyi looked at him calmly, "Even if I can't kill him, I have to kill him."

"Hehe, Wan Jianyi and I once said, between you and Cangsong, who will go further? In the end, it will be you with a strong mind."

"What's the point of saying this now?" Tian Buyi was a little dejected. No one had ever thought that they, a group of people, would end up like this.

Daoxuan put away the cold smile on his face, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Then let me ask you, why did you kill me?"

Tian Buyi's eyes turned cold, "After you became a demon, you killed innocent people. In the past few months, I have seen more than a dozen people with my own eyes! If I don't kill you, you will definitely commit more crimes!"

"Okay, okay." Daoxuan praised repeatedly, "Then let me ask you, how did I become what I am today?"

Tian Buyi fell silent instantly, his tone stagnated, but he was speechless.

Daoxuan sneered and turned to look at Lu Xueqi, "You have always been smart. When I was choosing between you and Murong Ji, I hesitated for a long time. What I hated most was why the two of you were disciples of Dazhu Peak and Xiaozhu Peak!"

"If you were a disciple of Tongtian Peak, then... by then, even if you were not interested, I would force you to get married."

"Now that your uncle is unwilling to speak, you can speak for yourself."

Lu Xueqi remained silent. She didn't know either and couldn't explain herself.

"Zhang Xiaofan, what about you? I have become like this for the people of this world, and now you are going to abandon me?"

Zhang Xiaofan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Inside the house, Bi Yao was lying in front of the broken window, frowning. She was also thinking about how to answer, but she couldn't figure it out.

He turned around and kicked Murong Ji's coffin twice, "Hey! Murong Ji, aren't you sharp-tongued? Go back at him!"

Murong Ji blew away the dust that had fallen from his head, his face gloomy, "Cai Ye Zi, you wait..."

"What did you say?" The tone was extremely unfriendly and the pitch suddenly rose.

Murong Ji instantly remembered his current state, where he was at the mercy of others. "Ahem, wait for me, I'll think about it."

"Then hurry up!"

Murong Ji cleared his throat, "Do you have any water? Give me a sip."

The corners of Bi Yao's mouth twitched. After thinking for a while, she took out the water bag and fed him some water.

"Uncle Daoxuan, I have a question for you. How do you judge good and evil? Should you judge by your origin or by your behavior?"

The people in the yard were startled. Daoxuan looked into the house and narrowed his eyes, full of fear. "What Junior Brother Murong said, naturally, will be judged according to his actions."

Murong Ji sneered and suddenly felt that this answer was extremely ironic.

"That's good. The rules of my Qingyun Sect are strict, and the disciples are simple and honest. I am very happy. Then, may I ask, after you became a demon, did the people of this world ask you to kill living beings?"

"Furthermore, can merits and sins offset each other? Fifteen years ago, Monk Puzhi slaughtered over a hundred people from Caomiao for his own selfish reasons. Can his three hundred years of merits offset his sins?!"

Daoxuan was stunned, but didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Good and evil, right and wrong, are actions, and should be judged by actions. The cycle of cause and effect is the order! What started is what ended."

"Puzhi has been doing good deeds for three hundred years. Great and virtuous monk, you are well done. Fifteen years ago, you massacred more than a hundred villagers for your own selfish reasons. This was evil! It cannot be refuted and cannot be offset!"

"Uncle Daoxuan, why did you kill those people?!"

Daoxuan's face was extremely ugly. "I pacified the Demon Cult for the people of the world! I pacified the beast monster catastrophe! Now I have been possessed by the devil! Could it be..."

"Uncle Daoxuan, you are also a cultivator. Abandoning obsessions and evil desires is what we should do, isn't it? To close one's emotions and desires is the best, and to eliminate evil thoughts is the second best. If you can't close your emotions and desires, but you can suppress them, that's fine."

"Haha, you are so sharp-tongued! Murong Ji, you are confusing right and wrong!"

"Maybe." Murong Ji's voice was still hoarse, and he felt a little sorry. Then his eyes turned cold, and he said slowly: "Xiao Fan, Daoxuan has already died once."

"His current state is similar to that of a ghost. Using the soul-stealing stick can suppress his spirit."

"I will teach you a method of 'retention and return to Yin' and use the bloodthirsty beads to deal with the Xuanyin ghost energy." As soon as the words fell, a voice appeared in Zhang Xiaofan's mind, telling him the path of the meridians.

Zhang Xiaofan's face was solemn, but his eyes lit up, and he looked at Daoxuan with much more confidence.

Daoxuan's face changed, worried that Murong Ji would find a way to restrain the dark Yin ghost energy! In an instant, his figure disappeared, and when he appeared again, he was in front of Zhang Xiaofan.

Tian Buyi and Lu Xueqi were startled and reacted quickly.
