I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 96 Questioning the Magic Mirror, He Xiangu Faces the Disaster

In the Prajna Hall of Yuanjue Temple, He Xiangu met Elder Xuanying, the abbot of Yuanjue Temple.

Elder Xuanying, wearing a purple-gold cassock, looked expressionlessly at the bronze mirror that He Xiangu had thrown in front of him. A hint of a smile appeared on his face: "I didn't expect that the real person also bought the magic mirror of our temple."

He Xiangu snorted coldly and said, "You are just an ordinary mirror made of crude materials. How can it have the ability to 'reflect demons'?"

Elder Xuanying smiled and said, "Did the Master encounter the demon?"

"No." He Xiangu said lightly.

Elder Xuanying smiled and said, "Since the real person has never encountered Mara, how can you conclude that this mirror has no power to 'reflect demons'?"

He Xiangu asked, "If I were to encounter Mara, would I be able to reach your Yuanjue Temple?"

"That has nothing to do with me. The magic mirror sold in my temple does have the power to illuminate demons." Elder Xuanying said.

He Xiangu said coldly: "You are deceiving all living beings. No matter what, you can no longer sell this mirror. You must immediately apologize to the people of the city and then buy back the mirror you have sold at the original price."

Hearing this, Elder Xuanying's face immediately turned cold. He stood up and looked at He Xiangu and said, "Master He, as a demon-suppressing master of the human world, aren't you meddling in too many matters?"

He Xiangu said, "Do you know that if you sell your magic mirror for ten taels of silver, how many people in the city will take out all their savings? What will they eat if they have no money?"

"I don't care what they eat." Elder Xuanying said calmly, "Just don't delay the gilding of the Buddha statue in the temple."

He Xiangu sneered, "You have cheated the people of the city of their money to build a golden statue. If this causes chaos in the city and causes great suffering to the people, then even if you build a great golden statue, you will never become a Buddha!"

"He Qiong! What do you mean?" Elder Xuanying was immediately angry, "How dare you say that I can't become a Buddha? Well, well, then I will show you the power of my Buddhist teachings."

As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Xuanying raised the purple gold chain pestle in his hand and hit He Xiangu.

He Xiangu's face changed and she said sternly, "Xuanying! You are possessed by a demon."

"It is you who has been possessed by the devil. I will slay the devil today." As soon as Xuan Ying finished speaking, the purple-gold chain pestle had already smashed down towards He Xiangu.

He Xiangu quickly formed a seal with her right hand, and a ray of fairy light rose up, immediately blocking the purple-gold chain pestle.

Afterwards, He Xiangu threw the lotus in her left hand towards Elder Xuanying, but Elder Xuanying opened his mouth and shouted, which was the Buddhist Lion's Roar.

A loud and violent lion roar shook the temple, and He Xiangu's lotus was instantly shattered.

He Xiangu was affected and her body was directly blown out of the Prajna Hall. Elder Xuanying was originally a celestial being like her, but he practiced both physical martial arts and magic.

He Xiangu only practiced magic, but her physical martial arts were not profound, so she was one point behind Elder Xuanying.

But after being shaken out of the Prajna Palace, He Xiangu flipped in the air and landed steadily. Then she waved her long sleeves lightly, and the next moment a lotus flower appeared on the ground.

As soon as the lotus flowers appeared, He Xiangu made a magic seal with her hands and pointed forward. In an instant, all the lotus flowers flew up and in a moment they turned into thirty-six lotus fairies dressed in clear pink fairy clothes and holding green lotus swords.

He Xiangu pointed with her white hand, and the thirty-six lotus fairies shouted and rushed towards Elder Xuanying who flew out of the Prajna Palace.

Elder Xuanying sneered at this, and then he sat cross-legged in the air, placed the purple gold chain pestle on his legs, then formed seals with his hands, chanted a spell, and shouted loudly: "Fa!"

'boom'

In an instant, the Buddha's light on Elder Xuanying's body surged and turned into a thousand-foot-long light that shone everywhere. Just as the lotus fairies rushed to the front, they were pierced through the body by the light and exploded in a blood mist.

In the blink of an eye, all thirty-six lotus fairies died, and the lotus leaves underground withered and disappeared instantly.

He Xiangu spat out a mouthful of blood, looked at Elder Xuanying in front of her, and immediately raised her hand. A emerald green fairy sword appeared in her hand. It was the real "Bihe Sword".

He Xiangu kicked her feet and flew up in an instant. The long sword in her hand burst into a sword light and stabbed it straight into the face of Elder Xuanying.

Elder Xuanying landed on the ground and looked at He Xiangu who was coming towards him. He immediately took the purple gold chain pestle and smashed it out.

'when'

A burst of fire appeared in the sky, and then the purple-gold chain pestle emitted a flash of Buddha light. The Bihe sword immediately flew out of He Xiangu's hand and flew straight towards Luo Mo who was not far away.

Luo Mo showed up and caught the Bihe sword. When he looked up, he saw Elder Xuanying smashing He Xiangu's head with a stick.

Luo Mo hurriedly shouted, "No!" and then appeared in front of He Xiangu in a flash.

But Elder Xuanying did not hold back just because there was an extra person in front of him, and he directly smashed down with all his strength. With a "bang", it hit Luo Mo's head, and the scalp on Luo Mo's forehead immediately turned blue.

But the purple-gold chain pestle bounced back from Luo Mo's head and hit Elder Xuan Ying's head with a "bang".

Elder Xuanying only let out a cry of "Ouch!" and blood spurted out of his head, and he fell heavily to the ground in an instant.

Luo Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and quickly raised his hands to turn his body around. However, as soon as he raised his right hand, he heard a "puff" sound from under him, followed by a muffled groan from He Xiangu.

Luo Mo's heart suddenly sank, and then he remembered, "Oh no, the sword is still in my hand."

"Plop" He Xiangu's fragrant body fell to the ground with a bright red blood. Luo Mo stabilized his body and landed quickly.

He picked up the Bihe sword in his hand and saw blood on the blade. He hurriedly threw away the sword and stepped forward to help He Xiangu up.

The moment "Master He" helped He Xiangu up when Luo Mo helped her up, he saw blood flowing from the left side of her neck, and blood, vitality and magic power were constantly flowing out of the wound.

Luo Mo hurriedly used his magic power to heal He Xiangu's wounds, but he forgot that he was a demon. His magic power entered He Xiangu's body and immediately collided violently with her mysterious magic power, which directly caused He Xiangu's blood to flow backwards and all the acupoints in her body to be destroyed.

Luo Mo was so scared that he started to cry. He didn't know what to do. At this time, Elder Xuanying had already stood up with the purple gold chain pestle, but there was a bloody hole on his head, and his energy had weakened by 40-50%. "Hahahaha!" Elder Xuanying laughed wildly when he saw this scene, "He Qiong, you meddled too much, this is retribution! Good death, good death."

"Shut your mouth." Luo Mo roared with tears in his eyes, then picked up the bloody He Xiangu and flew towards the west of Baolingfu City.

As he flew, he said, "Master He, hold on. I'll take you to Lingtai Mountain. The God will definitely save you."

But just as he flew out of Baoling City, he saw He Xiangu raising her hand and pointing downwards.

Luo Mo looked down and saw a forest. He was puzzled and asked, "Master, are you going there?"

He Xiangu nodded, and Luo Mo immediately flew down to the forest. After landing in the forest, Luo Mo put He Xiangu down against a rock, and then asked, "Master, what are you doing here?"

He Xiangu opened her mouth, and a stream of black blood foam immediately spurted out of her throat. He Xiangu suddenly felt her throat was much clearer. She took out a jade talisman from her sleeve and handed it to Luo Mo, saying, "Crush it."

Luo Mo quickly took the jade talisman and crushed it with his magic power. Then a ray of fairy light flew out from the jade talisman in an instant, then soared into the sky and disappeared in an instant.

Luo Mo saw the fairy light flying away and asked hurriedly: "Master, I crushed the jade talisman, what should I do next?"

He Xiangu smiled slightly, raised her left hand to cover her bleeding neck, and said with a smile: "Next, young man, just don't cry."

After saying this, He Xiangu's left hand fell down limply, and her eyes slowly closed, just like a beautiful lotus flower, still so gorgeous even when withering.

"Master? Master?" Luo Mo called out a few times, but saw that He Xiangu's life force had completely disappeared. He was stunned for a moment, his whole body went limp and he knelt on the ground, staring blankly at the dead He Xiangu in front of him.

Just two hours after the jade talisman was crushed, a ray of fairy light came from the north and fell directly into the forest.

"Fairy lady?" A clear voice rang out in the forest, breaking the dead silence. Luo Mo turned around abruptly, and saw a Taoist with a Taoist appearance, a tiger body, dragon cheeks, phoenix eyes facing the sky, and eyebrows reaching into the temples, with a long sword on his back and a whisk in his hands walking towards him quickly.

When this person walked up to her and saw He Xiangu lying there like a blood-red lotus, he couldn't help but smile: "I didn't expect that it would be you, He Xiangu, who would go first."

Then the Taoist looked at Luo Mo and smiled, "Young man, what are you doing kneeling here?"

Luo Mo looked at the Taoist in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and asked with a folded hand, "May I ask what your name is, the Immortal?"

The Taoist bowed and smiled, saying, "Lü Yan."

Luo Mo's face changed slightly, and he quickly stood up and bowed, "It turns out to be Master Lu. Luo Mo greets Master Lu."

"I heard the fairy talk about you. You are the adopted son of Taoist Hu Xianfeng and his wife, right?" Lu Dongbin asked with a smile.

Luo Mo said with regret on his face: "Master Lu, I'm sorry, I killed Master He"

"Hahahaha." Lü Dongbin laughed loudly upon hearing this. He looked at the tear marks on Luo Mo's face and said, "Young man, tell me what happened."

Luo Mo nodded, and then told Lü Dongbin what happened. Lü Dongbin laughed again after listening and said, "I see, your name 'Luo Mo' is indeed correct. But don't be sad, we eight immortals are destined to have this disaster, it's nothing serious."

At this point, Lü Dongbin asked again: "What did the fairy say before she died?"

Luo Mo thought for a moment and said, "Master He told me not to cry."

Lü Dongbin patted Luo Mo on the shoulder and said, "Then don't cry. She borrowed your hand to deal with the disaster, so she should thank you."

Luo Mo nodded, and suddenly something came to his mind, and he asked again: "What about Master He's spirit?"

Lü Dongbin smiled and said, "After we immortals die, our spirits will immediately return to the Yin-Yang Purple Mansion. After nurturing our spirituality in the Yin-Yang Purple Mansion, we will reincarnate through the Six Paths of Reincarnation and the Heavenly Path when the time comes. The spirit of the immortal lady has already arrived in the Yin-Yang Purple Mansion."

"Oh." Luo Mo nodded, and felt better.

As the two were talking, suddenly another divine light descended from the sky. Lu Dongbin and Luo Mo turned their heads to look, only to see Zhuang Yan walking out with Tiger Vanguard and Chi Ling in the divine light.

"Oh?" Lü Dongbin came up to him and said with a smile, "Lord God, why are you here?"

Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "I heard that Master He had met his fate, so I came here specially to congratulate him. What? Aren't you hosting a banquet?"

Lü Dongbin spread his hands helplessly and said, "It's impossible to hold a banquet in this remote place. It's okay. When I face the calamity one day, I will find a crowded place and hold a grand banquet."

"It's a deal." Zhuang Yan said with a smile.

At this time, Luo Mo hurried forward and bowed to Zhuang Yan, saying: "Lord God, I..."

Zhuang Yan interrupted Luo Mo, looked at him and said, "Don't blame yourself. The fairy lady and the others deserved this disaster."

Luo Mo pursed his lips and nodded heavily.

Zhuang Yan then walked forward, looked at He Xiangu's corpse and said, "The fairy has passed away, but this body must be properly disposed of. It has been trapped in the mortal world for so long that it is bound to be contaminated with negative karma."

Lü Dongbin stepped forward and said, "Burn it to ashes, and that's it."

Tiger Vanguard behind said: "It's a pity that the chancellor didn't come. She has the strongest temper and will definitely suit the fairy lady's wishes."

Chi Ling glared at Tiger Pioneer, then punched him on the back, but the muscles on Tiger Pioneer's back made her hand hurt instead.

Zhuang Yan smiled faintly and said, "No need to go through so much trouble." After that, he activated 'All Things Are Controlled by the Mind' and raised his hand to point at He Xiangu's body.

With a bang, a purple flame rose from He Xiangu's body. In the blink of an eye, He Xiangu's body was burned into a wisp of green smoke, which dissipated between heaven and earth.
