No. 128 White Cloud

  The transmission array of the Haoyueqizong suddenly lit up, and Qifeng and Shaoyang walked out of it. At this moment, Qifeng's mood was a bit apprehensive, after all, he had killed Lin Kun, who was the personal disciple of Tianzhuan Zhenren, the master of the Haoyueqizong.

  As for why they had to take the transmission array to arrive at the Hào Yuè Qì Zōng, it was because among the immortal sects, only the Hào Yuè Qì Zōng was closest to Yàn Dàng Mountain. If they were to go to other 'door' schools, they would have to fly for several days to reach Yàn Dàng Mountain.

  At that time, Huang's "flower" dish had already gone cold.

  So he had no choice but to grit his teeth and come here, hoping that the matter had not been known by the people of Haoyue Zong.

  He walked out of the transmission array with a nervous heart, and after walking around in a circle without finding anything unusual, he finally put his mind at ease.

  However, at this moment, the transmission array behind him lit up again. After the light faded away, a beautiful woman in white clothes walked out of it.

  This 'girl' was born extremely beautiful, even more so than Qin Mu and Li Xuege as well as Liling.

  Her face always maintained a smile, but that smile gave people a sense of sanctity and compassion, just like the smile of a Bodhisattva.

  "Is she a Buddhist disciple?" Qi Feng couldn't help but speculate, apart from Buddhist disciples he really couldn't think of anyone else from that 'school' who could produce such a smile full of Buddha-like nature.

  But she soon negated her own idea, because the Buddhist sects were divided into two 'sects', one was Water Moon Hermitage, where all were nuns, and the other was Nanhua Temple, where all were monks, or rather, all were bald, while she had a full head of black hair.

  "Sister, which 'school' are you a disciple of?" Qifeng asked subconsciously.

  "Pin Ni Shui Yue An Ming Yue Shen Ni sat under the disciple, Bai Yun, dared to ask the master's brother what school he inherited?" Bai Yun's face still had that kind of compassionate smile.

  "It turned out to be a disciple of Mingyue Shenni, I apologize for the disrespect. I am Qifeng, a junior disciple under Yan Qingzuo, the elder protector of the Qinglian Sword Sect. Greetings, senior sister." Qifeng's guess was indeed correct, but her black hair made it hard for him to understand.

  "Is Junior Brother going to Mount Swan's Pond to attend the Ten Schools' Martial Arts Conference?" asked Bai Yun.

  "Yes, and what about Shizi?" Qifeng asked back.

  "Well, let's set out together then." Baiyun was also going out into the world for the first time. Her master had previously instructed her to 'make connections' and cultivate good karma when entering the world, so she took the initiative to invite him.

  "All right." Qifeng nodded his head. He was also very interested in the disciples of Buddhism, after all, they were too mysterious to ordinary people.

  However, as soon as this was said, Shao Yang next to him became unhappy, pouting with a displeased expression.

  She had thought she could be alone with Zifeng and get closer to him, but unexpectedly, a Baiyun appeared out of nowhere, and this Baiyun was not only more beautiful than herself, but also had a better temperament, making her feel inferior.

  Especially when Qi Feng smelled like a cat smelling fish sauce, it made her even more displeased. But she couldn't say anything and could only lower her head and follow them as they walked away.

  Actually, she was wrong about Qi Feng. This white cloud, although beautiful in appearance, gave people a sense of vagueness, as if it didn't belong to the mortal world.

  Moreover, she lives in her own Zen state, so in her eyes, there is no distinction between male and female, beauty and ugliness, everything in her eyes is the same.

  The whole person exudes nobility and sanctity, making it impossible for anyone to have any unclean thoughts.

  Zi Feng wanted to get close to her just because of Fo Zong's mystery. He wanted to learn more about Fo Zong from Bai Yun, and had no other thoughts.

  Of course, Shaoyang will never know about it.

  "Ah, White Cloud Shifu, I have some doubts. Please enlighten me, Shifu." said Qi Feng.

  "Please go ahead, junior brother." Bai Yun nodded and said.

  "I've been to Shuǐ Yuè ān before, and I've seen the disciples there. As for the disciples of Nán Huá Temple, although I haven't seen them, I think they're probably similar to those at Shuǐ Yuè ān, and should have already shaved their heads. But I see that our Shī Jiě hasn't, I wonder why?" Qí Fēng asked, voicing the doubts in his heart.

  "My master said I have a connection with the Buddha, but it's predetermined that I won't become a Buddha, so she never tonsured me." Baiyun said with a smile.

  "Having affinity with Buddha but unable to become a Buddha?" Qi Feng was puzzled, if one cannot become a Buddha, why take them as a disciple, isn't that contradictory?

  "My master's cultivation is profound, every word is a Zen riddle, and I couldn't understand her meaning either. So I can only do this, sometimes when I'm outside, I don't even dare to say that I'm a disciple of the Water Moon Nunnery, afraid of being misunderstood, haha." White Cloud's eyes also revealed a hint of confusion, but more was a sense of helplessness.

  Zi Feng didn't know what to say at this time either, so he stopped talking. Before long, they arrived at Yan Dang Mountain.

  The "Wild Goose Mountain" has been a battleground for immortals and demons since ancient times. Tens of thousands of years of struggle have left the area scorched, with blood energy soaring into the sky. Even though it's been hundreds of years since any cultivators' fresh blood was spilled here, the air is still thick with the stench of gore and malevolent energy.

  "Amitabha!" White Cloud couldn't help but chant a Buddhist mantra, and instantly, golden light shot out from the top of her head, purifying the evil energy within a hundred meters.

  However, it was soon filled up by the surrounding killing intent and no change could be seen.

  The evil spirit within this hundred-meter range is like a drop in the ocean for the entire Wild Goose Mountain, and it's really negligible.

  However, Baiyun's move still broadened Qifeng's horizons. Although he could see the ominous aura surrounding this place, even if his cultivation reached the heavens, it would be difficult to purify it.

  "Sister, this place has accumulated evil energy for tens of thousands of years, which cannot be purified by human power. Let's hurry up the mountain." Qifeng said, seeing that Baiyun had no intention of stopping her attack.

  "Whatever." Baiyun sighed and nodded, no longer taking action.

  Before long, they arrived at the mountain top. However, the atmosphere here made Qi Feng feel very uneasy. Even if it were an ordinary battle between cultivators, the scene should be quite lively.

  But here it was quiet and still, not at all like a place for martial arts competition.

  Then they saw two people standing facing each other on the platform in the middle.

  "You go first..."

  "You've come from afar as a guest, so naturally you'll make the first move..."

  When Zifeng arrived, Fengzhan and the black-robed man had just started fighting, but soon Fengzhan was defeated by the black-robed man.

  "How is this possible!" Shaoyang exclaimed on the side, his eyes full of incredulity.

  "Shao Yang Shijie, what's wrong with you?" Qi Feng found it somewhat strange, how could it be impossible.

  "That was our Wind Warrior Brother who got defeated, he's the second strongest on the Earthly Demonic Ranking, incredibly powerful, yet he was defeated by his opponent with just two punches, it's simply unbelievable." said Shao Yang.

  "Is he the second person on the Earthly Demonic Ranking?" Qi Feng's expression also changed, as for the cultivators on the Earthly Demonic Ranking, he had met them before - Feng Zong Yao Guang, Xiao Bai and Lin Kun were all among the top ten on the ranking, and their strength he had personally experienced, indeed very powerful.

  And the second one's existence is even more outrageous, but was knocked out by two punches, it's indeed a bit hard to accept.

  "Who is that kid in black robes, the one ranked first on the Earthly Rankings?" Qifeng asked curiously.

  "No, he's not the one ranked first on the wanted list. The one ranked first is a nun named Baiyun... Bai, Baiyun..."
