Chapter 857


: Taking Vengeance
Baili Jia Jue looked back and faintly glanced at him. Then, he suddenly laughed and said,
Do you know why you can’t woo the one you like till now?


You shut up!
The Son of King of Hell was enraged in fury, he hated it the most when people attacked him with this fact.

Because you’re not shameless enough.
After saying this, Baili Jia Jue left while holding Helian Wei Wei’s hand.
The Son of the King of Hell was left speechless. Even if you don’t mind being shameless, at least consider it as a disgrace instead of feeling proud!
The corner of the mouth of Son of the King of Hell twitched furiously, as he carried his ax on his shoulder, looking smug and domineering.
All in all, this man is right.
Phoenix would’ve been so hurt if Bodhi is gone.
Baili Jia Jue understands what Bodhi means to Phoenix very well.
Although it isn’t the feeling of love, it’s very hard for her to let go of him.
He’s her closest kin who helped her remove her ominous name.
A friend who spent countless days with her at Mountain Tenya.
He’s Jing Wushuang, the only one who emitted the Light of Buddha, to shield her from the heavenly tribulation of thousands of rolling thunder, when the whole world had abandoned her.
Carrying the stem of Bodhi and holding the bottle gourd of resentment in its other hand, the ghost baby wobbled away and left the Exorcist City.
Since then, people regularly saw a child carrying a bottle gourd, turning up at the stone steps of a temple.
It was petite, yet very serious with its prayers. It kneeled down after every step it took, swaying its little body. Many people showed concern and solitude for it, and always stopped to ask,
Little child, you’re so young, why do you come praying on your own?

The ghost baby did not talk much, and had dark circles around his eyes.
There were also people who came to pray that laughed at it, mocking,
Look at that little kid, he really kneeled his way up the mountain to pray to Buddha, is he dumb?


Maybe something’s wrong with his head, what a pity.

The ghost baby disliked humans in the first place, so it never thought of stopping.
Till one day, it met a man at the snowy mountain.
The man was wearing a Chinese traditional costume, and his smile was elegantly gentle. His eyes were so tender when he looked down, as if they could peek into the human world. He asked the ghost baby,
Is that Bodhi in your hand?

The ghost baby paused, lifting its head and looking in the man’s direction, as it asked,
Who are you?


My identity isn’t important, what’s important is do you understand how you can develop Dharma fate?
The man said with a smile, as the bird on his shoulder bowed to peck on his slender and pale fingers.
The ghost baby had high cultivation as it had existed in this world ever since women started to have abortions. However, weirdly, it could not figure out the identity and the original form of the man standing before him.
As though he could see into the ghost baby’s mind, the man grinned and shut his eyes, saying,
When Bodhi stood above Tenya in the past, he enlightened many people to become Buddha. Now that he has come to the human world, of course, he has to enlighten people as well, since Sakyamuni Buddha prioritizes salvation the most. Do you think you can help him turn into a human again by making noble wishes and praying at every temple?


Then, what should I do?
The ghost baby stared at him with his dark eyes.
The man took another glance at the Bodhi in his hand and grinned playfully, saying,
Phoenix gave him her Dharma fate?

The ghost baby nodded.
The man stroked its little head and continued,
Although I’m not used to raising a ghost baby, I can allow you to follow by my side for 100 years. 100 years should be enough.

While hesitating, the ghost baby suddenly stopped its movement and looked at the man. What a familiar aura…

So, do you want to follow me?
The man smiled gently.
The ghost baby nodded again, clutching the bottle gourd tightly in its arms and walked right behind the man, step by step. It asked with his child-like voice,
How can I wake master up?


First, we need to find a temple and become the abbot of the temple.
The man said while playing with his bird,
Not only can we salvage people, we can also earn money. The former is insignificant, what’s important is the latter. You don’t understand how difficult it is to earn money in the human world, but people are more than willing to spend money when praying to gods and deities.

The ghost baby was speechless…

Oh right.
The man looked back with a warm and gentle gaze, saying,
My surname is Pei, call me boss from now on.

The ghost baby just noticed that the man could not see light as he was blind, but it could not tell by simply looking at how he walked.

Are you not going to follow me?
The man had a beautiful voice, it sounded like the Sanskrit sound in the temples when listened carefully.
The ghost baby moved its thick, short legs. Anyhow, it met a weird boss and this man had the ability to bring back its master…
Tugging onto the man’s sleeve, the ghost baby returned to the way it was before.
From that day onward, there was a new temple opposite the Exorcist City and it was different from the other temples. Other than receiving incense, people in this temple could deal with the evil spirits that those exorcists could not get rid of.
The most peculiar part was, the abbot in this temple did not like being called an abbot, he preferred others to address him as ‘boss.’
Furthermore, his fee was sky-high, with a starting price of one million.
Not only did he accept business from humans, but he also provided services to the ghosts.
His aim was to salvage souls. It was said that one could cultivate and become a Buddha after delivering 9,999 souls from suffering.
Of course, that was a story for another time. Exorcist City finally regained peace since that day.
The Exorcists initially wanted to make Phoenix Girl stay, but they realized that Helian Wei Wei had already left after cleaning up the mess.
The Son of the King of Hell thought his job here was done, since the evil spirits and demons had disappeared, while everybody could reincarnate as usual. However, the Great Demon King grabbed his collar up from behind as he was about to leave and growled,
Follow me to the path of Buddhism.

The Son of the King of Hell laughed devilishly and replied,
I dislike that place. Besides, we from the Underworld never intercept in the matter between Tian Dao and Buddhism. We only deal with dead people, not those who survive.


Did I say I’m letting anyone stay alive?
Baili Jia Jue broke into an evil smile as he stared at him.
The Son of the King of Hell smacked his lips and asked,
Are you really doing it? When you demolished the Buddha’s body of Honored Sir previously, you’ve caused great mayhem in the entire Mountain Tenya. Do you want to do it again now? Many people will die if you do that.


I’ll keep a low profile this time,
Baili Jia Jue said nonchalantly.
The Son of the King of Hell frowned, as he felt uneasy being held by somebody like this.
Tell me first, how do you wish to keep a low profile?


Kill everyone who should die, I won’t lay a finger on those who shouldn’t.
Baili Jia Jue smirked evilly.
The Son of the King of Hell bit on the pacifier in his mouth and asked,
Do you know how kind I am? I’ve never killed a Buddha willingly. I’ve only been to Tian Dao once, on the day I was born. Then, my dad kept wooing my mom, he said that I’m not allowed to visit the other two worlds before my mom promises to marry him. Also, you won’t need anyone to help kill them, it won’t make any difference even if I don’t go.


Certainly, I don’t need your help to kill, but only you guys from the Underworld can cut off the soul after I kill them,
the man uttered in a lower voice.
The Son of the King of Hell felt horrified and asked,
You want to smash the soul of the Honored Sir?
