Chapter 1756 Shangguan's mysterious confidence

"Master, I want to go too!"

Lin Ji Chen was just about to go to Cihang Jingan, but he didn't expect Shangguan Shuyun to ask to follow him.

He wanted to refuse, but the other party gave him a reason that made it impossible for him to refuse.

"Master, Cihang Jingan is very close to my hometown. When I was a child, I was almost kidnapped by bad guys. It was the nun of Cihang Jingan who saved me and protected my parents. So I want to go with you to take a look, and by the way, I can also stop by to visit my hometown. Is that okay?"

Shangguan Shuyun had a pleading look on her face, and with her bright eyes, slightly raised eyebrows, and rosy cheeks, she looked as tender and lovely as a newly blooming peach blossom. I'm afraid no man could refuse her.

Lin Ji Chen had to admit that his disciple's appearance was not inferior to any of his fellow Taoists.

She even has a special Zen temperament, like a belief that can only be admired from afar and not desecrated, and if you look at her for a long time, you can't help but want to worship her devoutly.

Although Lin Ji Chen was easily unaffected by this temperament, the disciples of the Sword Sect were simply unable to do so.

Sometimes when Shangguan Shuyun went to class, the inner hall disciples would surround her and treat her with great respect. Even if they liked her, they dared only keep it secret in their hearts without having any evil thoughts.

Now that he heard that the other party wanted to go back to his hometown, Lin Ji Chen naturally couldn't refuse.

He lifted his sleeves slightly, picked up Shangguan Shuyun, and flew out of the Sword Sect.

Along the way, Shangguan Shuyun seemed very excited. This was her first time going down the mountain with her master.

Moreover, she stood behind her master, with her feet on his flying sword. When she looked up, she could see his broad and tall back and smell his pleasant scent.

Shangguan Shuyun's cheeks flushed, and she hugged him up as if by a ghost.

Seeing Lin Jichen turning around and about to ask, she quickly said, "Master, your cultivation is too high and you are flying too fast. I can't adapt to it. Can I borrow your back to lean on it first?"

Lin Ji Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He believed it so much that he even slowed down a bit.

Shangguan Shuyun was more than happy to do so. She now hoped that she could fly as slowly as possible and as long as possible, and it would be best if she could stay on the road the whole time.

"Master, did you go to Cihang Jingan to fight?"

Shangguan Shuyun couldn't help but ask.

"I, your master, am not a fighting maniac. I will definitely not go over and fight you. But if that old nun Jinghui doesn't know what's best for her, then I won't be polite."

Shangguan Shuyun looked a little worried when he heard this.

"Master, is your friend wrongly accused?"

Lin Jichen replied: "It's not that she was wronged. She did kill a lot of monks, but there were reasons for that."

Then he explained why Chu Hongling wanted to kill people in the first place. When the turbulence in the void of Blue Star appeared, the evil spirits and monsters took the opportunity to attack Blue Star.

At that time, each city could only protect itself and had no time to take care of other things. Chu Hongling's father was sent to a suburban temple in Jiangling City to be the abbot. However, there were many dangers outside Jiangling City at that time, and evil spirits were roaming around.

Chu's father originally wanted to hide in the city, but the Buddhist headquarters thought that this was a good opportunity to recruit believers, and forced Chu's father to stay in the temple to help Buddhism recruit believers.

Even though they knew that a powerful evil ghost had appeared outside Jiangling City and killed countless people, they still did not care and forced Chu's father, who was a mortal, to leave the city, which eventually led to Chu's father's tragic death.

Chu Hongling therefore ran to the headquarters to seek an explanation, but instead of apologizing, these people mocked and ridiculed her. There was even a high-ranking official named Shi who took a fancy to Chu Hongling and wanted to take her away by force.

Chu Hongling was furious and finally killed all those guys in a rage.

After listening to Lin Jichen's narration, Shangguan Shuyun also showed an angry look.

"These guys are so despicable. They are unworthy of being Buddhists, but they are no different from those evil practitioners! Well done to Miss Chu for killing them!"

Lin Jichen said: "You think the killing was a good thing, I think it was a good thing too, even other people think it was a good thing, but that old nun Jinghui thinks it was a mistake. Do you think this old nun is mentally ill? I really want to chop open her bald head to see whether it's a brain or a defense."

Shangguan Shuyun chuckled and said jokingly, "Master, you have violated the precept of anger."

She said so, but she didn't think it was rude. Instead, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.

Because the figure in her memory was this carefree and unrestrained look.

Lin Ji Chen didn't notice her abnormality and continued to say whatever he thought without any scruples.

"I'm not a monk, I don't care about the precepts. As long as we have a clear conscience and don't commit crimes, we can live the way we want. I'm not like those bald donkeys who say one thing but do another. They insist on giving up this and that, but in the end they can't give up anything. They torture themselves and disgust others. What the hell."

These words made Shangguan Shuyun's smile become a little complicated.

She murmured, "Yes, the rules cannot stop the seven emotions and six desires, they can only torture oneself..."

"What's wrong with you, my disciple?" Lin Ji Chen was puzzled when he heard this.

"It's okay Master, I just think what you said makes sense."

"Haha." Lin Jichen laughed and said, "That's right. We sword cultivators don't have so many concerns. We can travel the world with swords and enjoy the martial arts world, and then we can understand the meaning of the sword!"

"But Master, Cihang Jingan is an orthodox Buddhist temple after all. It would not be good if you went there to fight, right?"

"I don't want to do it either. After all, that is Nun Jingyi's territory. I have a good personal relationship with Nun Jingyi. If there is no other way, I don't want to do it. But I must save Chu Hongling. If I am caught by the old nun Jinghui, I know she will not let me go easily."

Lin Ji Chen was also a little hesitant. On one hand, it was the sect of his good friend Master Jingyi. He was afraid of hurting her reputation if he fought, and it would also cause unpleasantness with the Buddhist sect.

But if she doesn't fight, Chu Hongling will have to suffer in there.

So no matter what choice I make, it seems inappropriate.

Shangguan Shuyun immediately volunteered when he saw this, "Master, how about this? I will go to Cihang Jingan to talk on your behalf. If the other party can show some leniency and not hold Miss Chu responsible, we will all be happy. If not, I will use the sound transmission jade pendant to call you over. Is that ok?"

"You go alone? I'm afraid I'm worried. The old nun is in menopause and has the same character as Master Miejue. It will probably be useless if you go. Instead, you might be humiliated or even bullied by her." Lin Ji Chen said worriedly.

Shangguan Shuyun pursed his lips and smiled, saying, "Don't worry, Master. I have some affinity with Cihang Jingan in the past. Besides, I don't believe that Master Jinghui would be such a barbaric and unreasonable person. As long as I communicate with her well, I believe she will definitely not make things difficult for me."

Lin Ji Chen still didn't believe in the old nun Jinghui, but he could not resist Shangguan Shuyun's mysterious confidence and repeated persuasion, so he finally agreed.

When Shangguan Shuyun saw that Lin Jichen agreed, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell.

She thought she knew Jinghui very well. After all, she had been with her for so many years. She felt that her junior sister was a very good person except for her hot temper. It was impossible for her to be like what Lin Jichen said.

Well, it must be!
