#316 - Chapter 316 Cut everything off and start from scratch

The Pure Land of娑婆.

There were still many people who hadn't found their tokens, but the karmic fire had already spread over.

Those who hadn't found their tokens could only grit their teeth and leave, watching the endless karmic fire.

“Damn it, if I ever find out who started the fire, I'll never forgive them!”

More and more people came out of the Pure Land of娑婆, but most of them hadn't found their tokens.

When everyone was out, the karmic fire had spread throughout the entire Pure Land of娑婆, leaving only Ye Wuxin inside.

The Great Emperor who maintained the passage closed the passage to the Pure Land of娑婆 almost without hesitation.

The image on the crystal suddenly disappeared, and the Pure Land of娑婆 was once again covered by Buddhist scriptures.

“I wonder how long this karmic fire will last.”

“As long as it doesn't spread out, who cares how long it burns?”

“The Pure Land of娑婆 is completely ruined, let's go!”

Those Great Emperors didn't care about Ye Wuxin's life or death at all; they didn't care at all.

Lin Yaoyao watched the passage being sealed off, reached out and placed her hand on the Buddhist scriptures, unable to see what was happening inside the Pure Land of娑婆.

“Junior Brother Wuxin, I'm sorry, we can't save you either.” Lin Yaoyao said with a hint of sadness.

Everyone fell silent; their junior brother was still inside, but they couldn't bring him out.

“Let's go, we'll report back to Master first.” After Lin Yaoyao recovered, she led Little White and the others away.

And in the second round, due to the karmic fire, although five hundred people were supposed to advance, only about four hundred advanced now.

Those who advanced went back to rest, waiting for the third round of competition tomorrow.

After everyone had left, Ye Kong, carrying his fishing rod, walked out from the other end of the Land of Ultimate Bliss.

Ye Kong picked up the fishhook, scratched the runes, and then walked in.

The entire Pure Land of娑婆 was burning everywhere; the ground was turned into scorched earth, and everything was being destroyed by the erosion of the karmic fire.

Ye Kong stepped on the karmic fire and walked towards the center.

Although the endless karmic fire was fierce, it couldn't hurt him in the slightest.

As Ye Kong was about to approach Ye Wuxin, the karmic fire turned into a fire dragon and soared into the air, roaring a few times in mid-air.

Then it swooped down towards Ye Kong.

Ye Kong gently tapped with his fishing rod, and the fire dragon instantly collapsed.

When he walked to Ye Wuxin's side, the Buddhist heart and Buddhist light on Ye Wuxin's body had been burned away, and he had also fainted.

All the hair on his body was burned golden.

Ye Kong pulled Ye Wuxin up, then took out a piece of cloth to wrap him up.

“Cut off everything and start over.” Ye Kong said softly, waving his fishing rod and cutting off the last trace of Buddhist nature on Ye Wuxin's body.

The scab on Ye Wuxin's head completely disappeared.

“Master will take you home.”

Ye Kong carried Ye Wuxin, walked on the karmic fire, and left the Pure Land of娑婆 all the way.

After walking out of the Pure Land of娑婆, Ye Kong took a step that was a thousand miles away, and returned to逍遥 Peak in a few steps.

He sent Ye Wuxin back to the thatched cottage and poured a stream of spiritual power into his body.

Next was to wait for him to wake up on his own.

“Rest well.” Ye Kong said softly, then walked out of the thatched cottage and went to the edge of the Bitter Sea.

“There's still time, I'll fish for a while.” Ye Kong stretched his back and sat by the Bitter Sea to fish.

There was a protective formation on逍遥 Peak, making it difficult for ordinary people to enter, which ensured the safety of逍遥 Peak.

Ye Kong leisurely fished on逍遥 Peak, while in the Land of Yin and Yang Intermingling, Lin Yaoyao and the others walked onto the spirit boat with shame.

……

Land of Yin and Yang Intermingling.

Lin Yaoyao and the others walked onto the spirit boat, their hearts heavy.

And Ye Xiaoyao wanted to find his master, but couldn't find him after searching for a long time; the Earth Mother was also gone.

“Where's Master?” Little White asked.

“Could it be… hiding somewhere feeling sad?” Little Qing guessed.

After all, Ye Wuxin was gone, and the one most affected was Master.

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

The Earth Mother hadn't returned yet, Mu Qianyuan had been taken to the Star Gazing Pavilion, and Ye Qingjun was still in seclusion.

The spirit boat suddenly fell into silence.

……

Inside the Star Gazing Pavilion.

Mu Qianyuan said everything that needed to be said.

“Has my Junior Brother Yuan met the Earth Mother?” Xing asked.

Mu Qianyuan shook his head and said, “The Earth Mother did come to my Star Gazing Pavilion as a guest, but she only looked at the stars for a while.”

As soon as these words came out, Xing sat up from the coffin, facing Mu Qianyuan directly, and said, “You said the Earth Mother went to your Star Gazing Pavilion as a guest?”

“Yes.” Mu Qianyuan nodded.

“Impossible, the Earth Mother cannot leave the ground, how could she go to your Star Gazing Pavilion?” Xing questioned.

He knew very well that the Earth Mother was the spirit of the earth and could hardly leave the ground.

Even if she wanted to take off, she could only use plants to connect to the ground, or other things.

And the Star Gazing Pavilion was hidden behind clouds and mist, it was impossible for the Earth Mother to go up.

“I'm not too sure either, but the Earth Mother did indeed come.” Mu Qianyuan spread his hands.

“Besides her, was there anyone else?” Xing asked again.

“No.” Mu Qianyuan said, covering up Ye Kong.

Hearing these words, Xing closed his eyes and remained silent for a long time, and said: “He lied.”

Why didn't the old ancestor press for answers?

“There is no need, he concealed the facts, which also proves that he knows that there is a strong person beside the Earth Mother.” Xing continued.

Both he and Mu Qianyuan were smart people; he knew that Xing hadn't told the truth, but had concealed a part of the facts.

Mu Qianyuan was unwilling to say more, just because he was afraid of offending that great power.

“During the upcoming Thirteen Continents Competition, you keep an eye on it throughout, don't let any more accidents happen, and don't let others interfere.”

“That great power didn't cause trouble for my Star Gazing Pavilion, presumably it was also for the sake of the Earth Mother; otherwise, if the Demon Yin Sect was destroyed, my Star Gazing Pavilion wouldn't have a good time either.” Xing reminded.

“I understand, the third round of the competition has already been formulated, there will be no mistakes.” The Star Gazing Master cupped his hands.

Only then did Xing lie back in the coffin and put the coffin lid on.

He had to rest.

He didn't want to continue investigating the Earth Mother's affairs either; this was far from something he could participate in.

The Star Gazing Master watched the old ancestor fall asleep before leaving.

……

After Mu Qianyuan returned to the spirit boat, he saw that the Earth Mother had also returned, and she was alone.

“Where's Ye Kong?” Mu Qianyuan asked.

“Went fishing, and didn't take me.” The Earth Mother grumbled.

She originally wanted to go back to fishing with Ye Kong too, but Ye Kong didn't take her, so she could only come back.

Hearing these words, Mu Qianyuan was a little surprised.

Went fishing?

Ye Kong, your disciple has been burned by karmic fire, and you're still in the mood to fish?

How big of a heart does it take to be this kind of master!

Or, are you too confident in your disciple?

Mu Qianyuan was somewhat speechless in his heart; Ye Kong was too unconcerned about his disciple. Was it right for him to hand his daughter over to him?

And even more speechless were Lin Yaoyao and the others.

They originally thought that Master was hiding in some corner crying, but they didn't expect him to find a place to go fishing.

Aren't you concerned about Ye Wuxin at all?
