Chapter 87: If I’m Guilty, the Heavenly Ways Will Judge Me!

He looked at Chen Yuanqing and Han Yuanshan who had suddenly appeared.

How could the Devil Monk Jing Chen and Emperor Chen De not know that they had fallen into Lu Yuan’s trap?

Up until today, Chen De had thought that his plan to reincarnate was well hidden and could be said to be perfect.

The actual situation was similar to what Chen De had thought.

Before Lu Yuan arrived at the Imperial capital, his plan was indeed not discovered by anyone. It was even about to succeed.

After all, the most important part of the reincarnation technique was its concealment.

As long as no one knew the exact location and time of the Buddha Child’s birth.

Then, the birth of the Buddha Child would be half successful.

Unfortunately, all of this changed after Lu Yuan arrived at the Imperial capital.

Chen De never dreamt that a gentleman who had to support himself out of the Drunken Cloud Brothel would have had the strength to ‘help’ the daughter of a criminal official.

Did they not say that celestial cultivation was about having a pure heart and few desires?

What was with this guy who fell in love with everyone he sees?

“Why didn’t you focus on your celestial cultivation? Why did you have to snatch my ‘concubine’?” Chen De thought angrily.

From the day Xu Wan’er was taken away by Lu Yuan, Chen De had felt that something was wrong.

And the development of the matter after that was indeed the case.

Chen De wanted to deceive everyone and play the game of reincarnation

Lu Yuan pulled the rug out from under him and directly took the Buddha Child and Goddess away!

Chen De lured the tiger away from the mountain and wanted to bring the Buddha Child and the Goddess back.

Lu Yuan played along and entered the palace to lure him out!

Chen De was desperate. He wanted to go deep into the tiger’s den and rob the house.

Lu Yuan disregarded martial ethics and deceived everyone by secretly sneaking the Core Formation Stage cultivators into the crowd!

It could be said that Lu Yuan perfectly grasped Chen De’s every scheme.

Even if those demons of the devilish way came, they wouldn’t be as scheming as Lu Yuan!

This made Chen De furious.

“I am just a mortal without any cultivation. How can he treat me like a Core Formation Stage old monster!” Chen De thought furiously. “Is there someone like you?”

Lu Yuan did not know about Chen De’s inner complaints.

However, even if he knew, he would not care.

As for why he treated a mortal so seriously, it was purely due to Lu Yuan’s personality.

He had even considered the possibility that he would suddenly be crushed to death by a meteorite falling from the sky in the Imperial capital.

How could he not consider the matter of Chen De, this insolent Emperor, defecting to the enemy?

It could only be said that Lu Yuan had always kept this aspect of stability in mind and had never relaxed.

Otherwise, if he really thought that he could relax and underestimate the opponents around him just because he came to the ‘novice village’, then Chen De might have really succeeded.

It could be said that it was all thanks to Lu Yuan’s cautiousness that things had developed to this point. Otherwise, it would have definitely caused a huge disaster.

As for why Chen Yuanqing and Han Yuanshan, two Core Formation Stage elders, were here, it all had to do with Lu Yuan’s ‘language arts’.

For Lu Yuan, calling two Foundation Establishment cultivators, Bai Dafei and Mu Qiqi, was not very safe.

Calling over the Core Formation Stage elder was Lu Yuan’s main objective in this plan.

And if he wanted to call a Core Formation Stage elder over, he had to give a sufficient reason. This was more particular, and it tested Lu Yuan’s language arts.

However, in this aspect, Lu Yuan, who was once the ‘Key Immortal of the Land’… that was his forte!

The Core Formation Stage cultivators were already considered to be at the level of ‘intercontinental missiles’ for a sect.

Simple reasons were definitely not able to activate them.

Therefore, the information Lu Yuan sent to the inner sect had to include the core interests that the Qingyun Sect cared about the most.

And this core benefit was the luck of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Lu Yuan’s message to the inner sect wrote: ‘He discovered that the Great Xia Kingdom’s national luck seems to be decreasing abnormally. Moreover, Emperor Chen De is suspected to be colluding with the devilish way. It is very likely that there are Devil cultivators hidden in the Imperial capital.’

As soon as this information was transmitted to the Qingyun Sect, it naturally attracted the attention of the Qingyun Sect Leader, Mu Chen.

Furthermore, Mu Chen also adopted Lu Yuan’s suggestion and did not let the two Core Formation Stage elders enter the city in a high-profile manner.

Instead, he had the two of them sneak in quietly and wait for the right opportunity to arrest the person and evidence on the spot!

This was why the two Core Formation Stage elders had disguised themselves as Devil-slaying practitioner.

At this step, it was the final tier.

As Chen Yuanqing walked towards Jing Chen, Lu Yuan also started to observe their interface.

[Jing Chen]

[Cultivation: Core Formation Stage Rank Three]

[Cultivation Technique: Huanxi Jile Meditation]

[Luck: 900/1000]

[Chen Yuanqing]

[Cultivation: Core Formation Stage Rank Four]

[Cultivation Technique: Top Level Sky Record]

[Luck: 1200/1300]

On one side was a Huanxi Sect devil monk at the third rank of the Core Formation Stage.

On the other side was a Qingyun Sect elder at the fourth rank of the Core Formation Stage.

Looking at the interface, Chen Yuanqing should not have any problems fighting Jing Chen alone.

After all, Chen Yuanqing was a stage higher than devil monk Jing Chen.

However, Lu Yuan did not think that the outcome of the battle between the two would definitely be the same as what was displayed on the interface.

After all, if any battle could be determined by cultivation alone, then there would not be so many people in this world who met with unexpected failures.

Thus, to be on the safe side, Lu Yuan quietly took a few steps back.

As soon as the situation was not right, he would immediately run away!

The death of his clone would not have much of an impact on Lu Yuan’s main body.

At most, he would lose a portion of his divine soul.

However, if there was a need, Lu Yuan did not want his clone to die here.

Moreover, this battle between Core Formation Stage cultivators might cause a huge commotion.

It was safer to retreat a little!

Jing Chen looked at Chen Yuanqing who was getting closer and closer. He did not show any fear because he was surrounded by his enemies. Instead, he still has the same calm look.

“I didn’t expect that the brat who was chased by Master has now become a Core Formation Stage cultivator.”

“Time really knows no bounds in celestial cultivation. In the blink of an eye, we haven’t seen each other for decades, right?”

Chen Yuanqing’s replied dully, “Jing Chen, even your Master couldn’t kill me back then. How can a little bald donkey like you be my match?”

“Fellow Chen, you’re wrong.” Jing Chen smiled. “Technique duel is not ranked according to seniority.”

“Although my cultivation isn’t as high as yours, it’s hard to say who will win.”

As he spoke, a scarlet energy radiated from Jing Chen’s body.

Other than that, strange Sanskrit began to appear around Jing Chen.

Normal Buddhist Sanskrit should be able to calm one’s mind and persuade one to be good.

However, Jing Chen’s Sanskrit emitted an inexplicable sense of evilness.

Not only did it make one’s heart heat up, but it could also evoke the deepest desires in one’s heart. It was extremely strange.

Lu Yuan and Han Yuanshan, who were further away from them, were not affected too much by it.

However, Chen De, who was next to Jing Chen, was undoubtedly unlucky.

Not only was he just an ordinary person without any cultivation, but Chen De’s heart was also filled with all kinds of desires.

In an instant, Chen De’s eyes became blurred.

First, he frantically stripped off his clothes.

Then, he hugged a pillar beside him.

Looking at such unglamorous sight, Lu Yuan could not help but suck in a breath of cold air, as his teeth turned sour.

Oh my god, who could imagine an old man who is over fifty years old exposing his chest in front of you?

This was what Lu Yuan saw.

“Scary, this is too scary!” Lu Yuan thought to himself.

“If I’m guilty, then the heavens will judge me instead of letting me see such an eyesore scene!”
