I flew on a sword at the magic academy

Shi Daohan held the jade flute across her lips, and the flute's melodious sound was like heavenly music. Auspicious rays of light descended from the sky, and golden lotuses emerged on the ground. Various strange phenomena appeared, and the vast sky seemed to transform into a magnificent painting.

Celestial music resounds through the heavens, and the gods reveal wondrous phenomena!

"Is it 'Phoenix Returns to the Wutong Tree'?! Everyone says this piece has been lost for a long time, but I never expected that it would be collected by Shushan." Shen Tiantian was surprised and recognized the piece that Shi Daohan was playing.

With a flash of light, Shen Tianyu also held a musical instrument in his hand. It was a jade bamboo flute, its entire body as green as jade, and he played the famous melody of Donghua Mountain Immortal Dao Mansion - "Huaqing Pool".

And so, the three sounds of Phoenix Returning to the Wutong Tree, Huaqing Pool, and Demonic Roar resounded simultaneously, finally drowning out the sharp and piercing roar of the Demon Mother Goddess.

"Bang!"

The Demon Mother Goddess staggered back several steps, and most of the Sanskrit characters on her body dimmed and flickered, suffering considerable suppression under the three vocal ranges of Shi Daohan and the other two.

"You beast! Surrender and be executed!" Shen Tianyu shouted, his voice shaking the sky.

"You, all of you, die!"

The Demon Mother Goddess's face contorted in a ferocious expression, and her body radiated a powerful Buddhist light, illuminating half of the pitch-black night sky.

The Buddha's light shone brightly, and there was a hazy yet vast sound of Buddhist chanting, as if three thousand Buddhas were chanting together, and an inexplicable Taoist charm permeated all directions.

In a trance, a phantom image of a Buddha appeared behind her, majestic and solemn, supporting half the sky. The sacred and inviolable aura emanating from him made her want to kneel down and worship.

"Buzz"

Jing Xinyu felt as if she had been hit on the head by a massive hammer. Her vision went black, her body swayed, and she almost fell from the sky.

"Are you alright?" Shen Tianyu looked over and, unusually, asked a question of concern.

"Their Buddhist teachings are somewhat effective against our demon race. I can't hold on much longer." Jing Xinyu held her head, her eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, they all claim to be the righteous path, and the methods they create are all aimed at evil spirits such as demons, monsters, and ghosts.

As a demon, Jing Xinyu was inevitably affected by the immense Buddhist light and the vast chanting.

It was fortunate that she was a pure-blooded demon. If she were a demon with weak bloodline power, she would have been annihilated by the Buddha's light long ago and would not have been able to withstand it for so long.

"This beast's combat power seems to be rapidly increasing. Shi Daohan, is your killing formation almost ready?!" Shen Tianyu turned to look at Shi Daohan.

They're not dealing with ghosts or evil spirits; they're dealing with the guardian deities of Buddhism. If things go wrong, they might all perish here today.

"Almost there, almost there, don't rush me!"

Shi Daohan placed the last piece of material in his hand into the central array eye, and with a "hum" of vibration, the killing array was finally formed.

Purple array patterns rippled like waves, spreading in all directions, crisscrossing and covering the entire sky.

A chilling, murderous aura swept through the land, as if an ancient god of war had awakened from his slumber and was about to wreak havoc on all sides!

"A Saintly Killing Formation?!" Shen Tianyu was shocked. He was an expert in formations and could tell at a glance what level of killing formation Shi Daohan had set up.

Although it was only a corner of the array pattern, it was enough to shock the world.

The array formations of sages are infinitely profound; even a small corner of the array pattern is enough to benefit a person for a lifetime.

"I didn't expect that you, at such a young age, would have already grasped a corner of a Saint's killing formation," Shen Tianyu said.

Shi Daohan shook his head slightly: "How could the things of a sage be so easily deciphered? I can only barely set them up myself right now."

At this point, she raised an eyebrow and glanced at Shen Tianyu, teasingly saying, "You, the chief disciple hailed as the reincarnation of the Donghua Emperor on Donghua Mountain, can't even set up a corner of a Saintly Killing Array?"

Shen Tianyu did not respond. As the chief disciple of Donghua Mountain and a master of array formations, setting up a corner of the Saint Killing Array was naturally not difficult for him.

He was simply surprised that Shi Daohan, who had only been cultivating for three or four years, was already able to set up a killing formation comparable to that of a saint. Such talent was truly astonishing.

Although I haven't fully grasped all the mysteries of the formation, it's already quite remarkable that I was able to set it up.

It should be noted that even he, the chief disciple of Donghua Mountain who was hailed as the reincarnation of the Donghua Emperor, spent six years comprehending and successfully setting up a corner of a saint's killing formation.

[The elders used to say I was a freak, but in my opinion, this one from Mount Shu is the real freak.] Shen Tianyu thought to himself.

The killing intent was boundless and the killing aura was limitless. Streaks of killing light crisscrossed within the formation. The Demon Mother Goddess was trapped in the killing formation, her body covered with deep, bone-revealing wounds.

Previously, Shi Daohan and the other two had worked together for so long to barely break through the defenses of the Demon Mother Goddess, injuring her arm.

Now that the killing formation is activated, her protective Sanskrit is useless, unable to withstand the boundless killing intent of the saint's killing formation. In just a moment, the sky was stained with blood, and her whole body was covered in wounds.

"Good heavens, after all these years of exorcising demons and catching ghosts, today we've set a precedent for killing a god." Shen Tianyu's face showed excitement.

"Don't be too happy yet. This is the first time I've set up a Saint Killing Formation. There may be many loopholes. It's still uncertain whether we can completely suppress this Demon Mother Goddess," Shi Daohan said with a solemn expression.

Just then, Jing Xinyu seemed to have discovered something incredible, pointing to the sky and exclaiming, "What are you looking at over there?!"

Shen Tianyu and Shi Daohan both looked up and then simultaneously gasped.

Above the sky, a majestic and boundless phantom of Buddha silently appeared. The sky seemed unable to contain his entire body, only revealing half of his face.

Golden light filled the sky, and the Buddha's light shone in all directions. A vast Buddhist chant resounded throughout the world.

The Buddha's face was solemn and dignified, devoid of sorrow or joy, as if it were watching everything happening here from across the endless universe.

"Buddha, Buddha?!" Shi Daohan was stunned on the spot, looking up at the sky with disbelief on his face.

Unexpectedly, this has alarmed such a prominent figure in Buddhism.

Looking at Jing Xinyu again, she had already vanished without a trace.

She wasn't stupid; once she sensed something was wrong, she immediately chose to flee.

That was a great figure in Buddhism, a god among gods, a Buddha among Buddhas. As a demon, she naturally wouldn't dare to act recklessly under the nose of such a terrifying being. It would be too much of a loss to be slapped to death.

"Esteemed benefactors, would you be so kind as to spare this beast's life?"

A voice, utterly calm yet carrying an undeniable air of authority, rang out.

"Of course, of course. If you want to vouch for someone, Buddha, you can just send a messenger to deliver a message. There's no need for you to show up in person. It's too much of an honor for us little people." Shi Daohan said with a smile.

Even a high-ranking Buddhist monk has personally shown up to protect her; would she dare to say "no" even once?

Compared to her, Shen Tianyu was much more assertive, saying calmly and confidently, "People can be brought along, but I only hope that Buddha can uphold justice and give the innocent a fair judgment."

"Hey! That's Buddha! The Buddha among Buddhas, the supreme being among gods! Do you really think He would bend the law for personal gain?"

Shi Daohan tugged hard at Shen Tianyu's sleeve, telling him to watch his words.

Shen Tianyu pulled her sleeve back: "What are you afraid of? We have our patriarch protecting us. Do you think we're afraid he'll kill us to silence us?"

Shi Daohan was almost speechless. This straight man was too straightforward. He had no sense of social etiquette and spoke without any tact. Didn't he know that this would easily offend people and make them resentful?

"This wicked beast descended to the mortal realm without permission and harmed people for his own selfish desires. When he returns, I will discipline him according to the Dharma. You can rest assured."

In the sky, the solemn Buddha face, which almost filled the entire heavens, appeared devoid of joy or sorrow, and its voice sounded incredibly calm and indifferent.

An existence like Him cannot descend to this world in person, because this world simply cannot bear such a supreme Buddha as Him; He can only manifest remotely.

Even when manifesting remotely, the complete Buddha body cannot be fully revealed; only half of the Buddha's face can be seen.

Buddha himself pointed out the sins of the Demon Mother Goddess. It turned out that Kevin's parents died tragically in a car accident because of her interference.

Kevin's mother, unable to let go of her child, placed her soul on that teddy bear due to this deep obsession.

The Demon Mother Goddess tried to harm Kevin several times, but was thwarted only by the desperate intervention of Kevin's mother's spirit.

The saying "Women are inherently weak, but become strong when they become mothers" aptly describes Kevin's mother.

No mother would want to see her child harmed, and even if she were to die and become a ghost, she would do everything in her power to protect her child.

Of course, Buddha also said that he would send an envoy to convert Kevin into Buddhism and make his parents' souls his guardian deities, accompanying him day and night, thus settling the karmic debt with the demoness.

"She may be spared the death penalty, but she can't escape punishment. She must be locked up for thousands of years to teach her a lesson," Shen Tianyu said.

"That's natural."

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden, boundless hand reached into this world from outer space.

"You wretched creature, why aren't you coming back with me to face your punishment?"

Accompanied by the majestic Buddhist chants, even a powerful Buddhist deity like the Demon Mother Goddess had no power to resist. She was grasped in the palm of that boundless golden hand and ultimately disappeared into the ends of the sky.

The radiant Buddha light receded like a tide, and the solemn Buddha face in the sky disappeared. Heaven and earth returned to silence, as if nothing had ever happened.

After confirming that Buddha had left, Shi Daohan glared at Shen Tianyu with annoyance.

"Can't you be a little more polite when you talk? Why do you have to be so blunt?"

Shen Tianyu felt completely bewildered and said, "I was just stating the facts and warning him not to bend the law for personal gain. What's there to be so polite about?"

Shi Daohan was so angry he laughed. He said, "Warning? Do you know who that is? A great figure in Buddhism, the Buddha among Buddhas, the supreme being among gods! Does He need your warning?"

Shen Tianyu: "After all, the Mother Goddess of Hell is one of the twenty guardian deities of Buddhism personally appointed by Him. Who knows if He will bend the law for personal gain? Naturally, a warning is necessary."

After saying that, he stared at Shi Daohan with displeasure and said, "What's wrong with you? We have powerful backers, you know. We have a patriarch protecting us. What do you care if he's Buddha or some other patriarch? Why are you afraid of him?"

Shi Daohan rubbed his forehead, looking helpless, and said, "It's not a matter of being afraid or not. After all, their status and position are what they are. We still have to give them the respect they deserve. That's called social etiquette, don't you understand?"

Shen Tianyu frowned slightly: "What social etiquette? Don't use your common folk ways on our cultivation world."

Shi Daohan: "Even gods have feelings, you know. If they have feelings, then they will have human relationships and worldly affairs. If you act like this, you will suffer a great loss in the future."

"As long as there is even a sliver of sincerity, the Heavenly Venerable will protect you. I haven't done anything immoral or immoral. With the protection of the Ancestral Master, who can make me suffer?"

Shen Tianyu looked disdainful and wouldn't listen to a word Shi Daohan said.

Shi Daohan was too lazy to waste her breath arguing with him. Anyway, she wouldn't be the one to suffer in the future, so saying more would just be a waste of her feelings.

They returned to the villa at the foot of the mountain. Because Shi Daohan had previously covered the inside and outside of the house with talismans and sealed off the surrounding area with array flags, even though the basement had collapsed, it would not have any impact on the overall building.

Kevin had woken up and was now curled up in a dark corner, barely daring to breathe.

Hearing footsteps, it curled up even tighter, its small body trembling uncontrollably; it was clearly terrified.

"Whoosh!"

A flame rose from Shi Daohan's palm, instantly illuminating the entire room.

They found Kevin, a little boy, huddled together in the corner.

"you……"

Kevin looked up and saw Shi Daohan and Shen Tianyu. He wasn't so scared anymore, but he was also very curious about how they had found this place.

He was doing his homework in his room when Laura suddenly rushed in and then fell unconscious.

When he woke up again, he found that he was no longer at home.

Suddenly, Kevin seemed to remember something and said nervously, "Oh, right, you guys need to be careful of my nanny, Laura! She's the ghost I was talking about!"

He was in the living room on the first floor of the mansion when he was about to tell Shi Daohan and the others that the ghost in the house was their nanny, Laura.

Unfortunately, Laura returned before he could finish speaking, and he only had the chance to say it now.

"It's alright, we've taken care of her." Shen Tianyu said lazily as she sat down on the sofa.

"Huh? You've already taken care of her?" Kevin looked at Shen Tianyu in astonishment.
