“You can eat poisonous mushrooms recklessly, but you can't talk recklessly. You guys simply couldn't control yourselves and showed your other sides. You can't turn around afterward and falsely accuse a child!”
“The child is still young; he can't shoulder such a massive blame!”
The Sect Master of the Qingshan Sect mocked.
Who didn't know how to talk circles around people?
The moment the Sect Master of the Qingshan Sect's voice fell, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan and the others widened their eyes.
How on earth did he say something so shameless with a straight face?
“Exactly! Little Lu is so adorable, how could he possibly harm you? You must be trying to make him the scapegoat!”
Right then, Man Yu, who had been silent all this time, stepped forward and shouted loudly.
Just now, the Qingshan Sect had the upper hand, so she didn't need to speak. But now, these people were actually ganging up to bully the Qingshan Sect!
How could she just stand by and watch?
After all, they were supposed to be on the same side as the Qingshan Sect now!
Man Xiong said nothing, merely nodding from behind his sister.
Before they left, his sister had already instructed him to speak less so he wouldn't get swindled by these guys.
He deeply agreed with this. Aside from the people of the Qingshan Sect, he didn't trust anyone!
Huangpu Haotian glared at Man Yu in fury.
“Man Yu, how can you lie through your teeth like this? Didn't you see that we only made fools of ourselves after eating the mushrooms this kid gave us?”
Man Yu couldn't help but roll her eyes.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk... Why don't you swear that you don't want to become the number one Human Emperor of the Xuantian Continent!”
Huangpu Haotian choked. He indeed wanted to become the number one Human Emperor of the Xuantian Continent, but hadn't he failed to achieve it?
Why wasn't he even allowed to think about it?
Seeing Huangpu Haotian's choked-up expression, everyone knew Man Yu was right.
They could also understand Huangpu Haotian's thoughts.
Every single one of their forces harbored the ambition to become the absolute boss of the Xuantian Continent!
It wasn't embarrassing. After all, a cultivator who didn't want to be number one wasn't a good cultivator!
After a long silence, Abbot Zhiyuan pressed his palms together and said:
“Amitabha. Let us put aside the matter of Huangpu Haotian wanting to become the number one Human Emperor for now.”
“The destruction caused by Mo Qianye and the others losing control is real, and all of this happened because they ate the poisonous mushrooms given by your Saint...”
“Exactly... Otherwise, why would I have suddenly gone mad for no reason!”
The Demon King, the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon, also chimed in.
Hearing their words, Lu Ming's eyes flickered as he spoke up:
“Perhaps you harbored resentment toward the Ancient Buddha Sect and used going mad as an excuse to destroy it!”
“After all, Buddhist cultivators love nothing more than vanquishing demons and fiends. One of you is a demon and the other is a fiend. You must have been hunted down by Buddhist cultivators plenty of times in the past, so you used this madness to exact revenge on the Ancient Buddha Sect!”
Big Yellow, standing beside Lu Ming, nodded in agreement.
“Boss is right!”
“Little Lu makes sense!”
The Sect Master of the Qingshan Sect also chimed in.
Abbot Zhiyuan, Mo Qianye, and the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon were all stunned.
My goodness, this kid certainly knew how to sow discord!
Ye Fan, who had been staring at Lu Ming all this time, suddenly spoke up:
“Ever since the Buddhists, demons, and fiends joined forces to fight the enemy during the Immortal Ancient War, everyone cast aside their past grievances and became comrades-in-arms!”
“Are you even a monk? You don't even recite a Buddhist invocation!”
Lu Ming sized up Ye Fan and asked.
He knew Ye Fan had been constantly looking at him!
He had thought his protagonist charm had conquered this little Buddha Son!
And that the little guy was about to bow down and pledge allegiance to him?
But the moment this guy opened his mouth, he felt a wave of hostility.
Looking at Ye Fan, who wore a monk's robe and had red lips and white teeth,
Lu Ming's eyes flashed as he muttered in his heart:
Needless to say, this was another of his fated enemies!
For someone so outstanding, if he wasn't a friend, then he was definitely an enemy!
In any case, there was absolutely no way he was just some random extra!
After all, this guy was still quite strong. Of course, he was just a tiny bit inferior to him, the protagonist!
Ye Fan was startled. Indeed, he really wasn't used to reciting Buddhist invocations!
Regaining his composure, he pressed his palms together and said, “Amitabha. This Buddha Son is merely speaking the truth!”
“Pfft! Truth my foot. From what I heard about the Immortal Ancient War, everyone was fighting in a chaotic mess! Besides, who did you Buddhists, fiends, and demons join forces to fight?”
Lu Ming curled his lips and said.
When everyone heard this, they realized he had a point. Surely you didn't join forces to fight the Ancient God Clan and the Ancient Imperial Clan, right?
Ye Fan's eyes flickered. This damn mortal was still as annoying as ever!
However, he really didn't know much about the Immortal Ancient War!
Just then, Abbot Zhiyuan continued:
“Amitabha. Putting aside our relationship with the demon and fiend races, even our relationship with the Ancient God Clan...”
At this point, Abbot Zhiyuan paused, then quickly changed his words:
“...our relationship with the Ancient Imperial Clan is quite good. There is absolutely no need for us to harm Huangpu Haotian!”
“Exactly!”
Huangpu Haotian quickly chimed in. Leaving aside what their relationship was like before, dealing with the Qingshan Sect together right now was what mattered!
Hearing their words, the Sect Master of the Qingshan Sect frowned.
Oh! How dare they bully my Saint? They must be looking for a beating!
Just as he was about to grab Abbot Zhiyuan and give him a good thrashing, at that very moment, Lu Ming pulled out a few white stalks with black caps from his storage bag!
“You guys say my Lunar Radiance Mushrooms are poisonous, right?”
With that, before anyone could react,
Lu Ming stuffed one directly into his mouth, chewing it with a loud crunching sound!
He made it look incredibly delicious!
The Sect Master of the Qingshan Sect was startled and was about to do something, but he immediately realized that his Saint wasn't actually three years old!
Judging by his usual behavior, this kid was incredibly shrewd!
Since he dared to eat it, he was definitely fine!
The Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan and the others were also stunned. They hadn't expected Lu Ming to actually eat it!
Lu Ming looked exactly like a child trying desperately to prove his innocence!
Even Ye Fan hadn't expected Lu Ming to actually eat it!
But immediately after, he knew Abbot Zhiyuan had lost this round again. That damn mortal was so detestable, he must have come prepared!
Sure enough, seeing Lu Ming eat it, Big Yellow opened its mouth:
“Boss, give me one! Lest they say your eating it doesn't count later!!”
Lu Ming reached back and stuffed one into Big Yellow's mouth as well!
“I want to eat too!”
Man Xiong also shouted!
Lu Ming tossed another one to Man Xiong.
Two people and a dog chewed away with relish!
The faint toxins of the poisonous mushrooms flowed into their bodies.
Lu Ming and the others didn't even bother to expel the poison, yet it didn't cause them any harm at all!
Seeing that Lu Ming and the others showed absolutely no discomfort, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan and the rest shut their mouths once again!
What the hell was going on?
“Come, come, come... You guys eat another one. If you go mad again this time, our Qingshan Sect will take full responsibility for any destruction caused!”
At this moment, the Sect Master of the Qingshan Sect took the remaining poisonous mushrooms from Lu Ming's hand and offered them to the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan and the others!
Seeing the poisonous mushrooms in front of him, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan trembled all over and almost jumped back in fright!
Eating poisonous mushrooms had left him with a psychological shadow!
“Have a taste! Lest you falsely accuse the child again later!”
Huangpu Haotian gritted his teeth and still took a poisonous mushroom!
He examined it closely. It was exactly the same as the one he had eaten before, radiating a faint trace of toxin.
To someone of their cultivation level, it couldn't cause any harm whatsoever!
