Starting with the divine power of the Great Vajra, he traversed the heavens.

Chapter 137 Pluck the Flower While It Blooms (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Since He Tuoluo and Boyan died on the banks of the Qiantang River.

The Yuan army then recruited several more skilled warriors from Tibet.

Among them, Phagpa of the Sakya school, as well as the Tantric masters Longya and Lionheart, were the most formidable.

Phagpa's spiritual cultivation was extremely high, almost reaching a level that was unprecedented and unparalleled in the Sakya school. After initiating Kublai Khan's spiritual practice, he was revered as the National Preceptor.

Meanwhile, the esoteric Buddhist masters Longya and Shixin cultivated the esoteric Buddhist techniques "Great Perfection Heart Essence" and "Compassionate and Extensive Salvation Buddha Mother Divine Skill," one yin and one yang, one soft and one hard, and the combined power of their attacks was extremely terrifying.

Now, the Yuan army still sent Dragon Fang and Lion Heart to pursue them because of the deaths of masters such as He Tuoluo and Harris.

On the large ship, a tall, thin old lama was seen fighting fiercely with a chubby little monk and a girl in green.

This old lama was none other than Master Longya. He swiftly extended his right claw, grabbing at Peanut's shoulder, while his left palm suddenly circled back, catching Peanut's punch with a "bang."

Peanut's chubby face flushed red, and he swayed as if drunk, taking a few steps back and muttering in a daze, "So amazing, so amazing old lama!"

Before the words had even finished, a scorching wind suddenly blew overhead, and Longya struck with his palm.

The girl in green, Liu Yingying, cried out and tried her best to catch it, but with a "thud," she staggered backward, her pretty face flushed red, as if it were about to bleed.

Master Longya laughed heartily: "Little monk, little girl, why don't you surrender?"

Peanut and Liu Yingying felt as if their whole bodies were on fire. Peanut was alright, as he possessed the "Great Vajra Divine Power" and had abundant internal strength, so he was able to withstand it.

Liu Yingying was in great pain, feeling as if her skin was being burned, and she was almost powerless to resist.

On the other side, a young scholar dressed in a white robe was having a heated argument with a fat lama.

These two are Yun Shu and Lionheart.

Lionheart Master laughed as he fought: "What a righteous leader! What a great Commander Yun!" The fat man spun his hand and struck Yun Shu in the chest, "Liang Xiao saved your little emperor, and you instead ambushed him and knocked him down!"

Yun Shu deflected his fat hand with a backhand, and then punched him several times in quick succession, knocking him back.

But Yun Shu's expression was indescribably sinister, and he said sternly, "Liang Xiao is a great villain, and everyone in the world has the right to kill him!"

Lionheart covered his mouth and chuckled, his smile enigmatic: "Is that so? Are you after national and personal vendettas, or that little girl in the green dress?"

Yun Shu's anger flared up: "Bald monk! You're talking nonsense!"

"I'm talking nonsense?" Lionheart chuckled. "You, a petty person who launched a sneak attack, are now turning around and accusing me?"

Yun Shu's expression suddenly changed.

Lionheart smiled slyly: "You think you're something just because you're wearing a white robe? You'll never be one, you little rascal!"

Enraged, Yun Shu's murderous intent surged. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "You dare to talk about the white robe?" He then leaped into the air and slashed down at Yun Shu's head.

Lionheart felt a fierce gust of wind above his head. He lowered his head and swayed his body to dodge the vicious blow.

With a snap, a large hole was opened in the cabin, and wood chips flew everywhere.

"You bald thief, don't run away!"

Yun Shu shouted repeatedly and flew after him.

Suddenly, Lionheart turned his head and sneered: "Catch it!"

Suddenly, a person appeared behind him. He was tall and thin with a face full of wrinkles. It was none other than the Dragon Tooth Master.

It turns out that Master Lionheart was both fat and tall, which allowed him to hide Master Dragontooth behind him. Now Yun Shu has fallen into the trap.

The two of them chuckled coldly.

Suddenly, Dragon Fang swung his palm, and a strange sound was heard. A hot wind howled, and at the same time, Lionheart struck first and slapped his palm again.

This palm strike already contained the "Great Perfection of the Heart Essence" internal energy of Dragon Fang, and was further enveloped by Lion Heart's yin and soft palm force. The combined power of the two doubled, and it shot out like a sharp arrow!
Yun Shu felt a powerful force surge towards him, which startled him so much that his soul almost left his body. He retreated in panic, but the force was overwhelming and there was no way to avoid it.

With a miserable groan, he was thrown more than ten feet into the cabin, causing a chorus of screams. His fate was unknown.

Seeing that their powerful enemy had been routed with a single palm strike, Longya and Shixin were smug and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, the martial arts world of the Central Plains is nothing special!"

"That's right! Who else?"

Just then, a long howl rang out!
Upon hearing the whistling sound, the two monks quickly turned around to look, only to find the blue sea and sky empty of any human figure. A chill ran down their spines: "Have we seen a ghost in broad daylight?"

Just then, a low gasp of surprise came from behind.

Peanut exclaimed, "My God, I've seen a ghost in broad daylight!"

The two suddenly turned around, and in the slanting sunlight, they saw a figure in a wide-sleeved white robe suddenly appear.

The moment they saw him, Lionheart and Dragon Fang's faces, one fat and one thin, turned as red as pig's blood, their eyes wide open, staring blankly.

The man in the white robe said calmly, "You recognize me too?"

Longya's expression darkened: "Wearing white robes has become a widespread trend throughout the land."

Lionheart said coldly, "We don't believe we could actually encounter the legendary one on the vast ocean!"

Longya swallowed hard and shouted, "So you're fake!"

Lionheart shouted back, "We're not afraid of you!"

Before he could finish speaking, Longya suddenly leaped up, resembling a large bird, and struck with his palm, sending a wave of heat crashing down on the white-robed man.

Lionheart also lunged forward, unleashing two palm strikes as sharp as knives and halberds, aimed at the lower body of the white-robed man.

They had been working together for a long time and were ruthless; once they struck, they showed no mercy.

Just then, a soft, gentle female voice rang out: "Hero, be careful!"

The man in white robes tilted his head slightly and smiled, "Is this Hua Xiaoshuang?" As he spoke, he flicked his wrist, and a wisp of blue light shot out like a gentle breeze, heading straight for the two monks' throats.

Lionheart and Dragon Fang felt a sharp wind rushing towards their faces, and were startled, so they thought of turning away and retreating.

But as soon as he took off, a flash of cold light appeared, and the long sword flew past like a snake.

Upon seeing this, Peanut, Liu Yingying, and Hua Xiaoshuang all fell silent, greatly alarmed: "How could this person's swordsmanship have reached such a level?"

As the white-robed man thrust out his sword, he and his sword seemed to transform into a wisp of smoke, vanishing without a trace, making it impossible to distinguish between man and sword.

That refined and elegant air is beyond description.

Everyone had only one feeling: if they were where the monks Dragon Fang and Lion Heart were, they would not be able to dodge this hidden and seemingly heaven-sent sword strike!
Similarly, Dragon Fang and Lionheart were indeed unable to escape.

They stared intently at the person in front of them, refusing to believe the truth.

Ren Shaoyang sheathed his sword and turned to leave.

They murmured, "What a beautiful sword!"

With two "plop" sounds, two jets of blood shot into the air, and the heads of one fat and one thin were swept into the sea, but their bodies remained upright.

Just as everyone was watching in awe, they suddenly heard footsteps approaching.

Turning around, I saw Liang Xiao running towards me with tears in his eyes.

"Hey, Liang Xiao!" Peanut shouted, rushing over to hug him. But suddenly, a green shadow slapped him on the forehead, making him cry out in pain and squat down, clutching his head.

Liu Yingying, seemingly both crying and laughing, pouted and suddenly rushed forward, raining blows on him with her fists.

Liang Xiao let her hit him, then pulled her into his arms, and Liu Yingying burst into tears of joy.

Hua Xiaoshuang stared at the two of them, stunned, and stood still.

Just then, Ren Shaoyang walked up to her and said with a smile, "Aren't you coming over?"

"Ah!" Hua Xiaoshuang exclaimed, covering her chest with her hand, somewhat incoherently, "I, I won't bother him anymore."

Ren Shaoyang frowned, then relaxed and smiled, "It is precisely because you do not contend that you contend; no wonder you can have the last laugh."

Hua Xiaoshuang was a little confused and tilted her head to look at him.

Just then, Liu Yingying pushed Liang Xiao away and wiped away her tears: "Xiaoshuang, come here quickly! That little pervert made you cry so sadly, let's beat him up!"

Having escaped death, Liang Xiao was overjoyed to see the two women again. He laughed and said, "If Xiao Shuang wants to hit me, I'm not afraid even if she kills me!" Hua Xiao Shuang gently walked over and covered his mouth, saying, "I'm so happy that Brother Xiao is back. Don't say such unpleasant things."

Ren Shaoyang was convinced. This was no "flower" at all; compared to Liu Yingying, she was clearly "flower tea"!
It's refreshing, appetizing, and helps to reduce internal heat – amazing!
Just then, Liang Xiao remembered Ren Shaoyang and quickly introduced him to the three of them: "Xiaoshuang, Yingying, and Huasheng, this is Ren Shaoyang, the 'Number One Swordsman Under Heaven,' the great hero Ren!"

Everyone was shocked. Hua Xiaoshuang covered her mouth and exclaimed, while Liu Yingying stared wide-eyed.

"Oh my!" Peanut jumped up, ran to Ren Shaoyang, looked him up and down, and then exclaimed, "Where did you learn your 'Great Vajra Divine Power'? It's reached a level I can't understand at all!"

Ren Shaoyang looked at the chubby face in front of him, those round eyes blinking at him.

He smiled and reached out to touch Peanut's bald head, saying leisurely, "Flowers bloom in pairs, one water, one fire. Water nourishes all things, fire illuminates the universe. Vajra glares fiercely, Bodhisattva lowers his brows. Flowers bloom in both realms, Bodhi attains enlightenment."

Peanut was completely confused and asked blankly, "What do you mean by that, benefactor? I don't understand?"

Ren Shaoyang shook his head and smiled, "It's normal not to understand now. Once you comprehend the Sumeru Zen method and realize the true nature, you will gain something. And when you reach the state of perfect enlightenment and are no longer bound by any worldly laws..."

"Now you know what this sentence means, and you know who I am."

Upon hearing this, Peanut looked distressed and said, "But, but I can only send but not receive. I've never even heard of those realms you mentioned later."

Ren Shaoyang smiled faintly and said, "Little Peanut, watch carefully."

"Huh?" Peanut looked up blankly.

Suddenly, the white-robed man's demeanor and aura changed.

He had changed from his previous high-spirited and elegant demeanor; now his brows showed three parts joy and seven parts innocence, appearing natural and untouched by worldly dust.

This is precisely the "blissful child appearance" that Peanut himself will achieve in the future!
Peanut Master was born with a special destiny. He experienced countless tribulations throughout his life, yet he always maintained a childlike heart. In the end, he reached the state of perfect enlightenment and clarity. He can be said to be the first among all the patriarchs in history.

The little monk stared intently at the person in front of him, his body seemingly frozen in place, oblivious to the world around him.

"Brother Ren, is Peanut alright?" Liang Xiao walked over quietly and asked cautiously.

"Oh, Peanut is fine. He just entered a state of enlightenment. Just don't touch him."

Hearing Ren Shaoyang say that, Liang Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Just then, Ren Shaoyang suddenly asked, "Are you planning to keep doing this?"

"Huh?" Liang Xiao didn't understand.

Ren Shaoyang said, "You have always been arrogant and conceited, and you have always been unruly. You have always accepted the kindness of others, but you have never been kind to others in return."

Liang Xiao was a little confused by what Ren Shaoyang said and couldn't react for a moment.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yingying immediately raised her eyebrows and stepped forward to argue: "You, what gives you the right to say such things about him!"

"Yingying!" Liang Xiao snapped out of his daze and quickly grabbed her, urgently shouting, "Don't be rude to Brother Ren!"

Liu Yingying paused, her eyes red as she looked at him: "You, you won't help me, and you're even scolding me?"

"Oh dear, Sister Yingying, Brother Xiao is only doing this for your own good," Hua Xiaoshuang said, coaxing her repeatedly.

Ren Shaoyang looked at Liang Xiao and said calmly, "Little Liang, you still haven't answered me. Are you planning to keep dragging this on indefinitely?"

Liang Xiao knew that the woman in the white robe was referring to Hua Xiaoshuang, Liu Yingying, and A Xue.

At this moment, Hua Xiaoshuang and Liu Yingying appeared to be facing away from them, but their ears were already perked up and flushed, clearly indicating that they were excited.

Liang Xiao smiled bitterly, "Xiaoshuang and I grew up together, Yingying was willing to live and die with me, and Axue was even willing to risk her life to save me. What have I done to deserve this?"

"Alright!" Ren Shaoyang waved his hand impatiently. "This is not a reason for you to run away."

Liang Xiao was somewhat bewildered and shouted, "How can I escape?"

Ren Shaoyang said coldly, "A smart person like you is so indecisive when it comes to relationships. And you still say that you're not shirking responsibility and being selfish?"

"I...I didn't," Liang Xiao continued to argue.

Sudden.

With a "smack," a slap landed on his face!
Liang Xiao felt an immense force come from him, and he tumbled to the ground like a spinning top!
"Brother Xiao!"

"You little pervert!"

Liu Yingying and Hua Xiaoshuang exclaimed in surprise and rushed over to help Liang Xiao, whose mouth was bleeding.

Ren Shaoyang's eyes were indifferent, and he said calmly, "I told you, if you're this indecisive, I'll slap you."

"You!" Liu Yingying's beautiful eyes suddenly flashed with anger, and she stood up, ready to attack Ren Shaoyang.

But he only glanced at me sideways, his eyes flashing with cold light, his gaze sharp as autumn water drawn from a box.

Liu Yingying let out a muffled groan, clutching her chest and sprawling on the deck.

"Sister Yingying!" Hua Xiaoshuang exclaimed in surprise, looking at the two of them, tears welling up in her eyes.

Ren Shaoyang stepped forward, grabbed Liang Xiao's shoulder, helped him up, and said coldly, "Ah Xue, you were forced away by Liu Yingying, weren't you?"

Liang Xiao didn't dare look at him, and lowered her head to say, "Yes."

Ren Shaoyang said coldly, "Are you really going to let her leave alone?"

Liang Xiao was speechless for a long time before finally saying in a muffled voice, "Brother Ren, I know you're angry that I didn't protect Xue, so it's right for you to hit me!"

Ren Shaoyang said coldly, "If you hadn't done me such a big favor, given my temper, I could have easily killed you with a single sword strike!"

Liang Xiao paused, unable to continue speaking.

Ren Shaoyang said, "You want to fight Xiao Qianjue to the death, that's why you've been avoiding them?"

"Yes!"

Liang Xiao finally admitted it loudly, and then poured out his heart:
"I will always remember Xiaoshuang's kindness to me and never forget it; I have always liked Yingying! Later, I thought she had changed her mind and fell in love with Axue, but we had a brother-sister pact, so I couldn't confess my feelings in time and almost caused her to die."

"Now that Yingying, Xiaoshuang, and Axue are all in love with me, it makes things even more difficult."

"What a load of crap!" Ren Shaoyang shouted. "You're so worried about Xiao Qianjue? Bullshit! You really consider an old guy who can be poisoned by 'Reversing Five Elements Powder' a lifelong enemy?"

"Those are all fucking excuses!"

Ren Shaoyang looked down at him and said, word by word, "You don't trust anyone, so you've been running away and don't dare to take any responsibility!"

He spat, "This is not the behavior of a true man!" He glanced at the stunned Liu Yingying, the tearful Hua Xiaoshuang, and the trembling Liang Xiao, then turned and walked towards the bow of the boat.

“I’ve never liked doing troublesome things. But I’m saying all this, even if it’s just for the sake of my childhood ‘friends’ and for the sake of Miss Xue, I’m advising you.”

Liang Xiao said with a complicated expression, "Brother Ren..."

"Life may seem like you have many choices, but you only get one or two real opportunities," Ren Shaoyang said. "Do you really want to miss out and then have to use your children's and grandchildren's names to remember your beloved?"

After saying that, amidst the complicated gazes of the crowd, the man in white robes leaped down and then suddenly soared into the sky.

A tiger shark carried him, swimming swiftly eastward like a kite in flight.

on board.

The atmosphere became awkward and silent for a moment.

The peanut plant stood there dumbfounded, while the crowd looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

Yes, it's all been made clear, so what's there to say?

"Ahem." Liang Xiao coughed, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Yingying, Xiaoshuang, when we return to the Central Plains, shall we go to Xihua Garden together?"

"I want to take you to see my father's former residence and his notebooks. I want you to know that he was a very nice and interesting person."

"And so it is with me, his son."

Liu Yingying suddenly realized what was happening, her pretty face flushed red, and she spat out, "You little lecher! You're dreaming!"

Hua Xiaoshuang smiled faintly, "Yes, I want to go." She smiled, but two lines of tears welled up in her eyes.
