Tian Jue had little Si Ming stay in the Golden Crow Sect and told him to lay a solid foundation on Zi Qiu's martial arts before going to look for him.

If Xi Yi was in the Middle Land, plus Xi Yi's pain during the invasion, Tian Jue could only think of Wan Shan Temple as the only place she could go.

However, Tian Jue did not really understand Xi Yi. If he went to search for it, it would just be a gamble.

The Ten Thousand Mountains Temple was located in the mountains behind the Golden Crow City. There were fewer and fewer there. People said, "The Golden Crow Mountain Range is vast, and a hundred miles is desolate."

Wan Shan Temple was located in this 100 miles of wasteland. There were all kinds of birds and beasts here. As Tian Juyi walked, he thought about how this group of vegetarian monks could resist these birds and beasts.

Just as he was thinking of a giant python stringing itself out from the grass, it opened its bloody mouth and was about to merge with the heaven.

"I came to visit the Wan mountain temple this time. I was hoping to spare your life, but I didn't expect you to fail to recognize my good intentions. You actually want to harm me!" As Tian Jue spoke, a cold light flashed past, and the head of the giant python split apart.

Blood spurted out wildly. Tian Jue was not even touched by a drop of blood.

After that, Tian Jue used his sword several times, slashing at the beasts that treated him as their prey. After walking for an unknown amount of time, Tian Jue followed the path indicated by a passerby as he entered the mountains.

It was very strange that Wanshan Temple was built in such a remote place, and it was so dangerous. It was like this: how to burn incense for pilgrims and how to go down the mountain for monks.

When he saw Wan Shan Temple, Tian Jue saw that the temple was divided into two parts, one was Wan Shan Temple, the other was Wan Shan Temple.

As for the other mountains, it was as if they were worshipping towards the two mountains, so the Myriad Mountain Temple was called the Ten Thousand Mountains. Tian Jue couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder it was so lively and lively, but how did people come here?"

Just as he was thinking this, Tian Jue had already gotten closer and closer to the Ten Thousand Mountain Temple. As he got closer and closer to the foot of the mountain, a few black lines appeared on Tian Jue's forehead.

There was clearly a wide path, yet he had traveled over mountains and mountains. On the way up, Tian Jue had scolded the passer-by numerous times in his heart.

Halfway up the mountain, two monks suddenly blocked Tian Jue's path. One monk said in a kind but irresistible tone, "Sir, you have killed too many people yourself. Your hands were stained with blood before you came to the Ten Thousand Mountain Temple. How about waiting for you to go down the mountain for a month before you go up the mountain?"

"They did it first." Tian Jue laughed awkwardly.

"On the way to Wan Shan Temple, there are always birds and beasts that have been converted to buddhism. They are responsible for protecting the passersby, so how do you know if they made the first move?" The monk looked at Tian Jue in confusion.

Just as Tian Jue was about to say something, a monk ran down from the mountain and said, "Senior Brother, Master wants Benefactor to go up the mountain."

"But he doesn't meet the requirements to climb the mountain." The monk that was stopping Tian Jue said with a frown.

Tian Jue was stupefied. He thought, could it be that this monk in front of him knew that he was coming?

A monk that had just run down from the mountain said, "Almsgiver is from the Wind and Rain Sect."

Hearing the monk's words, the two monks that stopped Tian Jue were stunned. Then, they simultaneously made gestures of invitation and said, "Sir, please!"

Tian Jue embarrassedly smiled as he was led up the mountain by the messenger monk.

Just as he entered, an old monk led a group of Ten Thousand Mountain Temple's higher-ups to stand inside the door. That old monk, Tian Jue, had some impression that the one talking to Xi Yi in Golden Crow City was him.

Tian Jue looked at him with a puzzled expression. "Since you've entered the Ten Thousand Mountain Temple, you're no different from the other guests. What need is there for you to preside over it?"

"Your excellency, this is truly rare. The temple has already prepared a special tea for Your Excellency. Please follow me to use it." The host clasped his hands together and said.

Tian Jue came with the host to Wan Shan Temple to greet the pilgrims. Unlike the other pilgrims, Tian Jue sat under a screen.

"Just now, you entered the temple and stopped my two people. Judging from their footsteps, they are people who cultivate martial arts. They are people that the Martial Nest School's families learn from. How come the two of them are able to learn it?" Tian Jue sipped a mouthful of tea and said as if he was talking about his own family.

"There are monks in the Myriad Mountain Temple that do not compete with the world. However, to protect this land from any intrusion is something that the audience's aristocratic families would agree to." The host poured tea for Tian Jue.

"Since there's a monk and the Western barbarians are invading, why don't we go down the mountain and save the world?" Tian Jue smiled as he looked at the host.

"War is driven by desire. When you go down the mountain to save people, you must kill, and when you leave your family, you must not kill."

"Then you are indirectly killing people?" Tian Jue asked with interest.

"This humble monk doesn't dare!"

"Then let me ask you, what would you do if someone led people to kill the people of Wan Shan Temple?"

"Reporting to my lord, you should repay me with kindness and affection."

"They won't listen. They won't care. They will kill you."

"In order to protect the monks, I am willing to give orders to surpass them."

"Good, Wan Shan Temple is a guest of the Central Plains and the guardian of Wan Shan Temple is a big family. If Xi Yi wins this battle, how can Wan Shan Temple be peaceful?" Tian Jue's tone did not conceal his disdain.

As the host did not say anything, Tian Jue's words were very clear. These monks were borrowing the power of a sect's aristocratic families to create their own reputation. If they were really in this chaotic world, how could they not kill?

The host remained silent. Tian Jue didn't say anything more. He was originally here to look for people, but he couldn't help but speak out his dissatisfaction towards these monks.

The two sat cross-legged at the tea table. The mist rose from the teacup, and the sunlight shone through the window onto the tea table. Only the chirping of birds and the clamorous sounds of the pilgrims could be heard outside the window.

"Your Excellency's words are very reasonable. This humble monk has received his teachings." After a long silence, the host suddenly clasped his hands together and said.

"Actually, I came up the mountain to look for someone." Tian Jue smiled when he saw this.

"The person that Lord is looking for is indeed on the mountain. However, that benefactor had instructed that no one is to disturb him."

"I'll have to trouble you to inform her. Tell her that it's Tian Jue looking for her. Let's see how she reacts."

After the host left, Tian Jue began to feel apprehensive. What if Xi Yi didn't even see him?

Not long after, Xi Yi's arrival proved that Tian Jue's worries were unnecessary.

"Xiyi greets the young master." When Xi Yi saw Tian Jue, she said with a smile.

When Tian Jue saw Xi Yi come, he immediately stood up and cupped his fists. "Greetings, Lady Xi Yi."

Tian Jue took a teacup and poured a cup of tea for Xi Yi, before grinning and saying, "I heard from the Heng Clan's elder that Miss Xi Yi is in the Middle Earth, so I knew that Miss Xi Yi was here."

"Many thanks for Young Master's concern." Xi Yi nodded with a smile.

"Young lady, please have some tea." Tian Jue passed a cup of tea to Xi Yi and Xi Yi accepted it.

For some reason, every time Tian Jue saw Xi Yi, he felt abnormally nervous. It was as if Xi Yi had a very strong aura about her, causing him to be unable to breathe as he approached her.

"What is Young Master thinking?" Xi Yi looked at Tian Jue and asked in confusion.

"No …." "Nothing …"
