“Great Saint, aren’t you going to make a move?”
Truth Listening couldn’t help but ask.
Sun Wukong smiled faintly and retorted, “Why should I intervene when Fahai can still fight?”
Truth Listening was rendered speechless, suddenly feeling like being under the Great Saint wasn’t such a good thing after all.
At least, the Great Saint seemed to be a bit too strict with his subordinates, didn’t he?
With Fahai already so injured, how could Sun Wukong say he could still fight?
How could he fight?
“Eh, that’s not right, could it be that he…”
Truth Listening suddenly exclaimed, showing an envious expression.
The female demon’s eyes flashed fiercely as she looked at the furious humans before her and disdainfully said, “A bunch of Human Race ants, trying to stop me?
Utterly ignorant of death.”
She had no intention of holding back her hand, even contemplating the annihilation of the entire city’s population.
If she could devour the inhabitants of this city, her strength would greatly increase.
Naturally, the female demon did not want to miss out on an easy target like a city with no significant threats watching over it.
What’s more, the actions of these commoners had already angered her.
Facing the female demon’s intent to kill, all living beings trembled in fear.
After all, they were all ordinary people; how could they withstand the murderous intent of a Heavenly Venerate?
But still, these people fearlessly stood in her way, some with their eyes closed, waiting for the arrival of death.
Just then, a calm voice rang out.
“Please make way, Fahai can still fight.”
The commoners turned back in surprise.
Fahai stood up, his body shining with Buddha’s Light, but he radiated a fearsome killing intent.
Yet, in the face of Fahai’s killing intent, ordinary people didn’t feel discomfort.
They even felt a sense of security.
This killing intent wasn’t aimed at them, but at the one who had acted against them.
The female demon’s pupils slightly constricted as she stared at Fahai, a hint of shock in her gaze.
At that moment, Fahai’s strength had clearly risen, even to the point of being able to suppress her.
“You’ve made a breakthrough.”
The female demon’s face changed drastically.
She could sense that Fahai’s realm was now on par with hers.
Meaning, Fahai had stepped into the realm of Heavenly Venerate.
Even as a Celestial Immortal, he had already given her such a hard fight.
Now that Fahai had become a Heavenly Immortal, what would be the outcome if they fought again?
The thought scared the female demon.
Fahai brought his palms together and said calmly, “I must thank you, for without your help, I wouldn’t have been able to make a breakthrough in such a dire situation.
As a token of my gratitude, when I slay you, I’ll make it quick.”
The female demon’s eyes reddened as she coldly said, “Delusional fool, even if you have become a Heavenly Venerate, you’re not my match.”
Her face contorted with ferocity, her eyes fixed on Fahai, filled with a terrible intent to kill.
Fahai smiled faintly, and the two once again engaged in combat.
This time, the female demon was at a disadvantage.
As their fierce battle unfolded, it was evident that the female demon was no match, immediately suppressed by Fahai upon engagement.
After breaking through to the level of Heavenly Venerate, Fahai’s strength was clearly far superior to that of the female demon.
With her strength, she really was no match for him.
In the end, after over a hundred rounds, the female demon was suppressed by Fahai.
Kneeling before Fahai, she spoke in a panicked and trembling voice, “I beg the master, please don’t kill me, I am willing to convert to Buddhism.”
Fahai shook his head lightly, saying, “No, you as an evil demon do not deserve to convert to Buddhism, you should die.”
The female demon couldn’t believe it; wasn’t the conversion of an evil demon considered a highly prestigious affair for the Buddhist Sect?
Under normal circumstances, the powers of the Buddhist Sect would be quite willing to accept their conversion.
But why was today’s situation different?
This monk didn’t seem to be playing by the rules.
“No, you can’t kill me.
There’s a saying, ‘Lay down the butcher’s cleaver and instantly become a Buddha.’ You should convert me instead, not kill me.”
The female demon said in panic.
When she had the upper hand, she was incredibly domineering, yet now that she was losing, she had become utterly despicable.
In her desperation to survive, she would say anything.
Fahai’s lips curled into a mocking smile.
He disdainfully said, “If laying down the butcher’s cleaver instantly makes one a Buddha, then what should those innocent beings, slain by the cleaver, think?
I have never believed that saying is correct.
Having sinned, one should pay for their deeds; death is the best outcome for an evil demon like you.”
“No.”
The female demon screamed.
“Go in peace.”
Fahai’s hand came down.
With a slap to the head of the female demon, her eyes suddenly became lifeless.
Then, her body turned to ashes, and with a gentle breeze, she was scattered to the winds.
The female demon was dead, and Fahai had never intended to spare her.
The commoners burst into cheers.
They didn’t understand the concept of laying down the butcher’s cleaver to instantly become a Buddha.
If villains could go unpunished after ceasing to do evil, where would the victims seek justice?
They bowed to Fahai with deep gratitude.
But Fahai waved them off, saying, “Eliminating demons and dispelling evil is merely the duty of us cultivators; you need not thank me.
Fahai was merely doing what was expected of him.”
Upon hearing Fahai’s words, the commoners grew even more respectful of him.
Such a noble and lofty attitude in an Immortal or Buddha was unheard of for them.
He sought neither credit nor glory, merely considering it as his duty,
Unlike some Immortals and Buddhas who, after doing a little good, seemed desperate for the Three Realms to know.
