Chapter 665 Calumny to Divert Away Attention

“So it’s you, monk. Why did you intercept my Golden Boat?”

Dozens of figures flew out of the Golden Boat, all cross-dressing female warriors, looking as valiant and heroic as real men.

Their leader was the Moonlight Fairy, her entire body twirling with Chaotic Mists.

In the moonlit night, the successor of Miaoyu Bordello had looked even more ravishing, dazzling the eyes. The moment she came out, it seemed as if all the moonlight between heaven and earth had converged upon her. Her whole being emanated an infinite silvery brilliance, like a sovereign goddess proudly towering between heaven and earth.

Golden Cicada opened his palm, releasing a wisp of Buddha’s Aura.

Staring at the Moonlight Fairy, he enunciated word by word, “Hand her over.”

“What’s this?” The Moonlight Fairy glanced at it casually and asked, “What are you saying, monk? I don’t understand what you mean.”

“Where’s that female disciple of Zero Thought Sect you have confined, who absorbed the Power of the Origin?” Golden Cicada stood in the void, glowing brilliantly with Buddha’s light. The chains making up the golden Sanskrit characters were wriggling and spiraling like divine golden dragons, making him look like a peerlessly majestic reincarnated Buddha.

“I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” The Moonlight Fairy shook her head.

She was shrouded in silvery mists, her facial features blurred, but one could still make out the vague outline of her slim figure and countenance, adding infinite mystique to her beauty.

She whispered, “Monk, a few days ago, you were still quite polite above Chu River. I thought well of you then and allowed you to enter the back hall of Heaven Pavilion. But since you’re a monk, you should not have coveted women. Why did you pursue me all the way here? And why did you find such a poor excuse to block my way?”

The Moonlight Fairy’s voice floated ethereally in the moonlight, creeping into the ears of almost everyone.

Ding Hao frowned slightly. This woman had said that on purpose.

“You don’t know what’s good for you! How dare you make things difficult for the Moonlight Fairy!” An angry voice roared out from the Golden Boat.

The next moment, dozens of figures soared out from Heaven Pavilion on the ninth story of the Golden Boat, just as Ding Hao had expected. They were all haughty young men with extraordinary strength. Ding Hao guessed that they must be young masters of Jin City from every corner of the world, congregating on the ninth story of Heaven Pavilion. When they heard the Moonlight Fairy just now, they immediately came out to redress the injustice done to her.

“You’re really a low-down monk! The Moonlight Fairy ignored you, and you were so shamed that you lost your cool. A despicable excuse to keep pestering her! You have embarrassed your religious order.”

“Where did this wild monk come from? Scram!”

“It’s shameless for a monk to be lusting after women!”

On the wharf of Dreamy Cloud Swamp, there was a loud clamor of curses.

Many people were furious because of what the Moonlight Fairy said. They could not wait to dash up the void and give Golden Cicada a good beating. This monk was so rude to have offended the lady in public!

Although confronted by this turn of events, Golden Cicada’s expression remained calm.

“The successor of Miaoyu Bordello is indeed getting more and more outstanding,” Golden Cicada put away the wisp of Buddha aura in his hand, smiled slightly, and said, “Almsgiver, I will give you another chance. Hand Sweet Sound obediently to me. If she’s fine, I won’t pursue the matter. Otherwise, I’m afraid a trifling house like Miaoyu Bordello can’t bear the consequences.”

The Moonlight Fairy held her breath momentarily. After a moment of silence, she asked, “Where did you come from, monk?”

Golden Cicada simply smiled and did not give her a direct answer. He said, “Since the lady almsgiver has guessed my identity, there’s no need to ask such a question.”

“Your Eminence’s Buddhist cultivation is so profound. Could you have come from the Great Leiyin Monastery in the Western Desert?” the Moonlight Fairy asked tentatively.

Golden Cicada nodded.

The Moonlight Fairy hesitated slightly, but in the end, raised her head and said in a faint voice, “Although the Great Leiyin Monastery is the supreme organization of the Western Desert, we’re in the Divine Central Continent, so there’s no need to be so overbearing here. What’s more, I really haven’t seen that Reverend Sweet Sound you’re talking about. Isn’t it going too far for Your Eminence to make trouble here without first examining the facts?”

She had quietly changed her form of address, now calling Golden Cicada “Your Eminence” instead of “monk”.

Her words rang out clearly in the ears of everyone.

On the ground.

The noisy, cursing crowd suddenly quietened down.

Many immediately covered their mouths with their hands, their faces full of regret and horror. Even the dozen young geniuses who had flown out of the Golden Boat to protect the lady and fight for injustice were also shocked. This monk had come from the Great Leiyin Monastery? Was his background really so powerful?

The Land of Infinity was divided into five regions, each with its own supreme power in charge of the Human Clan’s fortunes.

For example, in the Northern Region, the God of War of Mysterious Frost had the same status as the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost, while the Great Leiyin Monastery exerted profound influence in the Western Desert. The monastery was one of the Five Supreme Forces in the Land of Infinity. Its presence could only be challenged by that incomparably supreme individual of the Divine Central Continent. No one else could afford to offend them.

“There’s no point in arguing.” Golden Cicada had remained calm all this time.

However, Ding Hao could see that the glitter in the young monk’s eyes getting sterner.

“Your Eminence is backed by the Great Leiyin Monastery, but you can’t push us too far and browbeat us. Although Miaoyu Bordello cannot be compared with the Great Leiyin Monastery, you shouldn’t have sullied our reputation,” the Moonlight Fairy said in a pitiful voice. “What’s more, if the eminent monks of the Great Leiyin Monastery know what you’re doing tonight, they might not have supported you. How can a monk lust after women? How can he use his prowess to oppress others?”

Her words were a reminder to many people.

The eyes of those protective young talents behind the Moonlight Fairy also lit up.

“That’s right. Although this monk’s from the Great Leiyin Monastery, he doesn’t have reason on his side. If the Great Leiyin Monastery ever finds out about this, they will not support him. Instead, they will punish him for breaking their rules. After all, what Golden Cicada has done today is a transgression.”

“Monk, you’d better go back and cultivate hard. Don’t embarrass the Great Leiyin Monastery here.”

“Alas, the reputation of the Great Leiyin Monastery has been tarnished by a meat-and-wine monk like you.”

“Even the Great Leiyin Monastery must be reasonable, right? If you insist on doing such a despicable thing today, even if it means crushing us into powder, we must still protect the Moonlight Fairy!”

Those young talents stood out one by one, full of righteous indignation. Their bodies were full of powerful Qi cultivation, like little suns releasing imposing auras to fight Golden Cicada, blocking in front of the Moonlight Fairy.

“Amitabha!” Golden Cicada sighed. “Since the lady almsgiver is so stubborn, I’m going to have to make my move.”

Before his voice died away…

… The golden Sanskrit chains flying and wriggling all over the sky suddenly froze, penetrated the void, and rushed whistling toward the Moonlight Fairy.

“You have to defeat me first.”

A young genius bellowed, gripping a Dragon Blood Halberd in his hand, his whole body bursting with abundant Qi. He was displaying his cultivation at the Martial Emperor Realm to the fullest, intercepting Golden Cicada.

“Let’s attack him together. There’s no need to play fair with this rude, unreasonable and sinful monk.” Someone shouted and attacked him at the same time.

All the young men congregating on that ninth-story Heaven Pavilion tonight were masters at the Martial Emperor Realm. They could be regarded as the most remarkable young experts of Jin Province and its neighboring provinces. More than a dozen men attacked at the same time, their Qi fluctuations billowing like huge waves in the sky, with layers of energy constantly clashing and emanating outwards. Weapons and animal totems howled, morphed from all kinds of surging Qi, like on a battlefield of the gods.

Even those standing 500 to 600 meters below on the ground felt suffocated. They had to step back at once, for fear of being affected.

At the same time, the Moonlight Fairy quietly retreated some distance.

Ding Hao could sense from the contours of her slim figure enshrouded in mists, the Moonlight Fairy gloating over their misfortunes.

By now, he was feeling completely disgusted with this woman.

She was definitely a vicious and sinister woman, capable of causing great unrest, adept at manipulating the psychology of men. She could stir so many young experts to fight for her in just a few words.

These were all outstanding men, reaching the Martial Emperor Realm at the age of 20 to 30, with resolute willpower. Yet once they met this woman, it was as if they had lost their reason overnight. They simply went crazy over her, like the White-Robed King who was stirred by the Moonlight Fairy in a few words to fight him in a sword duel.

An idea flashed across Ding Hao’s mind, and the rusted sword appeared in his hand.

“Let’s end this fight as soon as possible. Rescue Reverend Sweet Sound first. Don’t get entangled with these men.” Ding Hao’s figure flashed and he had directly entered the fray.

Sweet Sound was in the hands of Miaoyu Bordello. Now that their plot had been discovered, Miaoyu Bordello was likely to destroy her body, to get rid of the evidence, then deny everything when confronted by the powerful Great Leiyin Monastery. After all, a force as powerful as the Great Leiyin Monastery was definitely not one they could afford to offend. If the two were held up here for too long, Sweet Sound would be in real danger.

As far as Ding Hao was concerned, he had to attack.

“Alright.” Golden Cicada nodded and no longer entangled himself with these young experts. As soon as he finished speaking, his figure had already ghosted through the battlefield, approaching the Golden Boat at an insane speed.

“Where are you going, monk?” A few of the young experts shouted, turning around to chase after him.

“A bunch of idiots, fooled by a woman. Stay here like good boys.” Ding Hao waved his hand, and six large flags flew out, thrusting into the void.

The red flags seemed dyed with blood, each bearing an emblem of five golden stars. The flagpoles were thick as bowls, glittering with a pale silvery light. There were coiled dragon motifs on them, nailed to the void like six divine dragons. The flags fluttered in the breeze, as the 30 stars emanated transparent, fluctuating Qi. The inscribed Chinese characters glittered and danced with silvery light, as lovely as divine butterflies, sealing everything within the surrounding 100 meters of the void, trapping the dozen young Martial Emperors inside.

In the void, Ding Hao stood with his sword drawn.

“Brat, you’re courting death!”

“Let me out, or I’ll make you die without a burial place.”

Seeing the outburst of Buddha’s light around Golden Cicada’s body as the monk streaked toward the Moonlight Fairy and the Golden Boat like a meteor, these valiants attempting to show off their prowess before the lady became agitated. They tried several times, but failed to quickly break through the flag formation. They rushed toward Ding Hao instead, attacking him with grotesque faces.
