Behind the second-floor window opposite, Kaori Saeki was holding a telescope tightly, her palms full of sweat.
She saw with her own eyes that the young monk had returned, accompanied by the remaining female members of the Gao Liu family!
According to the information she had gathered, it seemed that this monk had joined the Taimanin sect, and was a master who could slay demons and monsters!
Slay demons and monsters? Have supernatural powers?
These words made Kaori feel hot all over.
"Really... it's a real extraordinary power..."
Kaori put down the binoculars, breathing rapidly, with an almost fanatical light in her eyes.
Her fascination with such mysteries goes back a long time.
Now, a living "master" with great power lives just across the street. This is simply a chance sent from heaven!
Her mind was racing.
Being specially hired by the Taimanin, this monk must be extremely powerful.
What if...what if I could learn a little bit of his cultivation method?
Even if it was just a sneak peek! This thought was like a lit fuse, quickly exploding in her heart, making her feel uneasy.
Go! You must go and see it!
Kaori's eyes became unusually determined, even with a hint of desperate madness.
The risk of being discovered? She had certainly considered it, but it paled in comparison to the opportunity to glimpse into truly extraordinary secrets.
She seemed to have seen a future in which she would be reborn and master mysterious powers.
Kaori Saeki's heart was pounding like a drum. She hid behind the curtains of her house, staring at the lighted room on the second floor of the villa opposite.
Kaori felt the blood in her body boiling.
She had to see it with her own eyes, she had to know what that power was like.
She did what she wanted to do, quickly turned off the lights in the house, and changed into a dark sportswear that was easy to move in.
After making sure that there was no one around, she slipped out of the house silently like a nimble night cat, and under the cover of the night and the sparse shadows of the trees on the roadside, she trotted all the way to the wall of Xiuyuan Villa.
The wall of this villa is not too high, but the surface is smooth and there are almost no footholds.
Kaori gritted her teeth and chose a spot near the drainpipe. She tentatively grasped the edge of the wall, but the cold touch made her shiver.
Then she took a deep breath, used her hands and feet, and began to climb up.
·· ·Request flowers···· ······
The drainpipe was a little loose, making a slight creaking sound that nearly made her heart skip a beat. She quickly stopped and listened to the sounds inside the villa. Silence reigned. She continued, taking each step carefully, beads of sweat quickly forming on her forehead.
This climb was much more difficult than I had imagined. My arm muscles were sore and my fingertips were painful.
After a lot of effort, she finally climbed to the edge of the second-floor eaves. She clung to the cold tiles like a gecko, not daring to breathe.
She moved cautiously toward the window of the lighted room.
The window was not closed tightly, leaving a gap that allowed her to peek inside.
Kaori adjusted the angle, held her breath, and put her eyes close to the gap.
The room was simply decorated. The young monk, Xiuyuan, was sitting cross-legged on a cushion on the floor, his eyes slightly closed, his hands in a seal, as if he was meditating and chanting.
He has a tall figure and a handsome face. Under the soft light, he seems to be shrouded in an indescribable aura of tranquility.
...... .... ....
Is this the master's training? Kaori was a little disappointed, but also a little curious.
She had expected to see some glittering gold or flying runes, but in the end it was just boring meditation.
But for some reason, looking at Xiuyuan's calm profile, she felt that there seemed to be some unfathomable power hidden in that tranquility, which made her unable to look away.
Time passed minute by minute, and Kaori lay on the eaves, maintaining the same posture for too long, and her body began to stiffen and numb.
The evening breeze blew, bringing a chill, and she couldn't help shivering.
The strength of my arms gradually weakened, and the tiles under my feet felt more and more slippery.
"Just one more look, just one more look..." she muttered to herself, trying to concentrate again.
At this moment, her foot slipped and her center of gravity instantly lost balance! "Oh no!" Kaori screamed in her heart, her hands scratching at the air, but she couldn't catch anything.
The whole person rolled down from the eaves uncontrollably like a torn sack.
"Boom!"
A dull sound.
She fell hard on the balcony extending from the room below, landing on her butt first. The shock made her see stars and her bones seemed to be broken.
The severe pain made her grimace in pain and tears almost burst out.
But her strong desire to survive made her bite her lips tightly and dare not make any cry of pain.
It's over, it's over, it's been discovered!
She was so dizzy from the fall that her mind went blank, with only this thought remaining.
She struggled to get up and run away, but her body was sore that she couldn't move. At this moment, she felt a calm gaze falling on her.
Kaori raised her head stiffly and met a pair of deep and calm eyes.
Xiu Yuan had opened his eyes at some point and was looking calmly at her who was lying on the balcony in a miserable posture.
When their eyes met, the air seemed to freeze.
Kaori's cheeks flushed crimson instantly, shame, pain, and fear all flooding her heart, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Chapter 66: Disrespecting Buddhism? Confined to the room to cultivate lust!
Mrs. Chengjiang was taking a bath with her daughter.
?Since becoming Master Xiuyuan's "packhorse", the succubus blood in her body not only brought her strength, but also gave her a keen perception far beyond that of ordinary people.
?At this moment, she paused slightly, and a very faint scarlet flashed in the depths of her eyes.
??Almost at the same time, Rinko Akiyama also raised her head.
She wore a fitted home outfit, her posture relaxed, but her eyes, gazing out the window, instantly fixed with a sharp, intimidating gaze. Unlike Madam Chengjiang's vaguely eerie aura, Rinko's perception was more reserved, yet she equally accurately captured the aura of unwelcome presence that had suddenly intruded upon the villa.
An ordinary human being.
Neither of them moved.
There was no exclamation, no warning, and even the expression on his face didn't change much.
Madam Chengjiang's heart was slightly alarmed, and a succubus's territorial consciousness and protective instinct were ready to make a move.
Someone trespassing into the Master's residence? It was simply courting death. Almost subconsciously, she wanted to stand up and use her newfound strength to deal with the intruder.
But this thought only flashed through his mind before being suppressed by deeper instructions.
The master gave no orders.
These four words were like the strongest shackles, firmly restraining her impulses.
She lowered her head again, only slightly increasing the strength of her fingertips.
The master didn't respond.
Akiyama Rinko was even calmer. She simply looked towards the door calmly.
She is not as thoughtful as Chengjiang, her logic is simpler and more direct:
Master Xiuyuan is here, and all external factors are harmless variables unless Master indicates that they are a threat.
Since there is no warning, it's fine.
The intruder "947" probably doesn't know what kind of place he has stepped into?
Kaori Saeki climbed up from the cold floor with a grin on her face. Without bothering to check if her elbow was scratched, she first angrily patted the non-existent dust on the hem of her skirt, her movements showing a bit of deliberate embarrassment and dissatisfaction.
She tidied up her slightly messy hair and walked up to Xiu Yuan and stood still.
She raised her chin, her eyes filled with annoyance of being ignored and a hint of a spoiled brat:
"Hey, how come you have no manners at all? You saw a girl fall and just stood there watching? Is it so hard to help her up?"
Xiu Yuan didn't even raise his eyelids, and his voice was calm and even, as if the person who fell just now was not a person, but a fallen leaf:
"I am a monk, not the gentleman that the donors are talking about."
This bland response only added fuel to the fire.
Saeki Kaori put her hands on her hips and raised her voice a few notches:
"A monk? I think you're a fake monk! You're full of lies!"
She stretched out her finger, almost touching Xiuyuan's nose.
"You clearly understand Buddhism, and you're quite advanced! Last time... Anyway, I knew everything! And you lied to me, saying you knew nothing and were just an ordinary monk! Liar!"
Her tone was firm, as if she had grasped some powerful evidence, and her face was full of the smugness of "I see through you".
She recalled the fleeting glimpse she'd caught of him earlier, the aura that had inexplicably reassured her and yet still awed her, and her judgment became even more certain. This monk was definitely not a simple person, yet he chose to pretend to be ordinary. He must have some ulterior motive!
Xiu Yuan remained as calm as ever, seemingly oblivious to the fingers and sharp accusations that were so close to him.
He didn't even change his posture, but just stated calmly:
"Donor, you are obsessed with appearances. I am indeed just an ordinary monk."
There was no emotion in his voice, no panic of being exposed, no eagerness to defend himself, only a calmness that was almost indifferent, as if he was talking about the weather.
This stubborn attitude made Saeki Kaori feel like she had punched cotton, with no place to put her strength. The anger in her heart made her cheeks turn red.
Kaori Saeki was still immersed in her own reasoning and the anger of being ignored.
She had no idea what kind of group of beings she was standing in front of, and was loudly accusing the person who had just annihilated the demons for three hundred years of being "ungentlemanly."
Her self-righteousness seemed particularly ridiculous and ignorant in the eyes of those in the know.
"you……"
Saeki Kaori was so angry at his attitude of "whatever you say is right, but I just won't admit it" that she was speechless, and her hand that was pointing at him began to tremble slightly.
"Just wait! I will definitely expose your true face!"
Saeki Kaori was completely enraged by his stubborn attitude, and her chest was heaving.
She felt that all her reasoning and accusations hit the air. The other party's nonchalant look of "I am just an ordinary person" was the biggest provocation to her.
Furious, she acted impulsively and made an extremely bold, even reckless move.
"An ordinary monk? I wonder how long you can keep pretending!"
Kaori gritted her teeth, took a step forward, and reached out to grab Xiuyuan's vital parts.
Her movements were quick, sudden, and well-aimed.
When her fingertips touched the entity under the cloth, a hint of pride flashed through Kaori's heart. She exerted force on her hands, grasping it tightly, with a wicked smile on her face:
"Hey! Monk! Aren't you afraid of breaking your vows? If you don't admit that you know magic, I'll make you return to secular life immediately! Let's see how you can pretend then!"
In her limited knowledge, monks attach the most importance to discipline and rules, which is undoubtedly the opponent's weak spot.
She was certain that the fake monk would be frightened out of his wits and confess without hesitation.
I'm so witty!
However, the expected panic did not occur.
Xiu Yuan still stood there, without even frowning.
He just slowly lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on Kaori's bold hand, and something seemed to cool slightly in the depths of his golden eyes.
This girl is a bit ignorant of the consequences.
Doesn’t she know that I am very petty?
"Amitabha."
He chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice. The voice was not loud, but it had a strange penetrating power that made the air seem to freeze for a moment.
