The surviving villagers huddled in a corner, holding their breath.

They looked at the bandit's corpse lying on the ground, then at Chen Mo and the others who remained calm, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

The man and woman before them were even more terrifying than bandits—bandits kill people by wielding knives, but these two could easily take dozens of lives with just a wave of their hands.

An elderly man who was in the lead stepped forward and immediately bowed, saying, "Thank you both for your kindness!"

"If it weren't for you, our village would have been wiped out."

Chen Mo bowed slightly and said with a smile, "Old man, it was nothing."

"These people have hands stained with sin, while I am merely..."

Just then.

A little girl in the crowd burst into tears, broke free from the restraints of an elderly man, rushed out, and threw herself onto the bodies of two villagers.

Its cries were heart-wrenching!

Chapter 76 If you had come sooner…

"Father! Mother! Wake up!"

The little girl threw herself onto the blood-soaked corpses, desperately shaking her parents' already cold bodies with her tiny hands.

Mu Wanqing's heart softened immediately, and she was about to say something to comfort her.

Then the girl suddenly turned her head and stared intently at Chen Mo and Mu Wanqing.

Through her tear-filled eyes, a hatred beyond her years burst forth, and she uttered a sorrowful and indignant question.

"Why! Why! Why!"

"You guys are so amazing, why couldn't you have come sooner?!"

"If you had arrived a quarter of an hour earlier, Father and Mother...they wouldn't be dead!"

The elderly man at the head of the group tried to grab the girl, but she suddenly shook him off.

She rushed up to Chen Mo and Mu Wanqing, pointing at them and accusing them, "It was you...it was you who killed my parents!"

It's you!

Mu Wanqing frowned slightly, feeling that something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

However, seeing the girl's heartbroken appearance, she couldn't help but wonder if she could have saved these innocent villagers if she had acted a little faster.

"Amitabha."

Chen Mo clasped his hands together and said, "Qing'er, you're too attached to appearances!"

"All beings suffer, and everything is preordained. Isn't reaching the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss a kind of liberation?"

As he spoke, he looked down at the little girl whose face was full of resentment, his gaze calm.

The little girl was a little scared by his gaze, but she still stubbornly stared back with her red eyes.

"You murderer, give me back my parents!"

"hehe!"

Chen Mo chuckled lightly, "Young benefactor, I see that you are blinded by anger and hatred, and have already fallen into the demonic path!"

"This humble monk... will now 'send you to the afterlife'!"

As he spoke, a wisp of Nirvana True Qi rose from his fingertips, "Amitabha!"

Before he finished speaking, his finger had already touched her brow.

The resentment on the little girl's face froze instantly. Her small body trembled slightly, and then she collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

what? !

The surrounding villagers screamed in terror, staring in disbelief at the scene before them.

The person who just saved them killed a child in the blink of an eye.

"Master, you..."

The old man, who had originally intended to stop the little girl, couldn't help but speak up.

Chen Mo turned to look at him, "Oh? Old man, do you think this humble monk did something wrong?!"

The old man felt a chill run down his spine under his gaze and repeatedly waved his hands and backed away, saying, "No...no!"

"The master did the right thing!"

"This child has indeed... has indeed fallen into demonic possession!"

The other villagers immediately realized what was happening and echoed, "Master, you have great mercy!"

"This child is blessed; he will be saved by the master!"

"Yes, yes, that child was definitely possessed by a demon just now, his eyes were terrifying!"

"Thanks to the master's intervention, he helped us rid us of a demon!"

"..."

Chen Mo nodded in satisfaction, and as he turned around, a gentle breeze stirred up his sleeves.

The little girl's body spontaneously combusted without any fire.

"stop!"

Just then, a clear, cold shout came from not far away.

A white figure gracefully arrived, like a fairy under the moon, landing lightly in the arena.

The person who came was dressed in plain white clothes, and her face was covered with a thin white veil.

Although her exact features were unclear, her slender figure and the pair of clear, bright eyes that were visible were enough to tell a story.

Her extraordinary temperament is no less than that of Mu Wanqing!

She carried an elegantly styled longsword on her back, which added to her otherworldly air.

The woman in white glanced at the girl's burning body on the ground, then at Chen Mo, a look of shock and anger flashing in her eyes.

"This master."

Her voice was clear and melodious, “Since you carry the Buddha’s teachings, you should be compassionate.”

"Although the little girl's words were inappropriate, it is normal for her to be mentally unstable after such a great calamity."

"Your act of helping was a good deed, but in the blink of an eye, you turned around and poisoned an innocent child."

"This action... is probably not the way of the righteous path!"

The woman in white found it very strange; this guy was clearly a monk, yet he showed no regard for the precept against killing.

He seems to have absolutely no taboos; can such a person still be considered a monk?

"No no no..."

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Benefactor, you misunderstand. This humble monk is not killing her, but merely granting her wish!"

"It's a great blessing that she was able to reunite with her family!"

"What's wrong with that?!"

These words were spoken with such conviction that the woman in white was momentarily speechless.

Some time ago, her master observed the stars at night and sensed that the world was about to descend into chaos.

She was sent by her sect to find the true emperor and assist him in pacifying the world and establishing a peaceful and prosperous era.

Unexpectedly, not long after he came out, he encountered such a sinister monk.

"Cuckoo..."

Just as the two sides were locked in a standoff, a silvery laugh suddenly came from the treetops on one side.

On the treetop sat a barefoot girl in a purple dress, with silver bells tied to her snow-white ankles, swinging her legs as she watched the play.

"I think... what this master said makes sense!"

The woman in purple leaped down from the treetop with a radiant smile and stood before Chen Mo. "It's better than some people who talk about compassion..."

"But he was holding a sword... that made him seem much more sincere!"

She changed the subject, looking at the woman in white, "Don't you think so, Shi Feixuan?"

A glint flashed in Shi Feixuan's eyes; she hadn't expected to run into her mortal enemy here.

"Wanwan, this has nothing to do with you."

Hearing their conversation, Chen Mo was immediately taken aback.

I never expected to encounter the Holy Maiden of Cihang Jingzhai and the strongest successor of the Yin Gui Sect here.

"How can it be unrelated?"

Wanwan smiled gently, moved closer to Chen Mo, and brushed her fingertips across his monk's robe.

"This master acts decisively, which suits my taste perfectly."

She suddenly turned to look at Mu Wanqing, "This young lady is quite lucky..."

When Mu Wanqing saw the two stunningly beautiful women, Shi Feixuan and Wanwan, appear, she immediately sensed a sense of crisis.

She directly took Chen Mo's arm, asserting her ownership.

Upon seeing this, Shi Feixuan frowned, thinking that this guy in front of her was probably a fake monk.

He's probably still the kind of scumbag who specializes in deceiving young girls' feelings.

Wanwan was quite surprised, but then she understood what Mu Wanqing meant and giggled.

"Little sister, don't be nervous~"

As she spoke, she deliberately moved closer to Chen Mo, "I just find this master interesting, I won't compete with you for him."

Seeing this, Mu Wanqing coldly shouted, "Witch, stay away from my husband! Don't get so close!"

"Giggle."
