Chapter 170 White Brahma Temple, Mysterious White Lotus?_3
Luo Changfeng tentatively said, "Is the White Brahma Temple one of the three great demonic monk forces?"
After finishing the hot tea in his hand,
the Carefree Monk quietly nodded his head.
Then, he continued, "The White Brahma Temple is the last of the three great demonic monk forces on the Xuanyuan Continent. Even as the last, it's still not something ordinary forces can contend with. As for that white lotus phantom that seems to have taken root in the void just now, that thing is the most important sacred artifact of the White Brahma Temple, the White Brahma Lotus."
"At first, the appearance of this White Brahma Lotus might not have any impact on you."
"But as time goes by, as the White Brahma Lotus gradually grows and strengthens within the White Lotus Prefecture..."
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
"The consequences can be somewhat dire..."
...
As the Carefree Monk's words gradually echoed in this courtyard,
Luo Changfeng's expression also gradually became more solemn.
One of the three great demonic monk forces of Buddhism...
Even the Carefree Monk by his side had such an assessment.
It seems that even the White Brahma Temple, the least of the three great demonic monk forces,
is not something that just any force can handle.
At least, the current Luo Changfeng
probably can't deal with the so-called White Brahma Temple and that mysterious sacred artifact, the White Brahma Lotus...
"Eh, that's not right..."
As he thought, Luo Changfeng suddenly sensed something was amiss.
Thus, he lifted his head,
looking at the Carefree Monk in front of him, whose worn wooden fan was constantly shaking in his hand.
He fell silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Aren't you also a follower of Buddhism? Why do you evaluate Buddhism in such a manner?"
Upon hearing this, the Carefree Monk showed his teeth,
revealing his yellow teeth and casually smiled.
Afterward, he said in a low voice,
"This naturally is different."
"Haven't I told you before?"
"A monk is a monk, I am me, I am the ancestor of Buddhism, so... it's naturally different."
In the courtyard, beneath the Stone Pavilion,
Luo Changfeng looked at the Carefree Monk in front of him.
He couldn't help but become somewhat silent.
"Since you are the ancestor of Buddhism, why don't you clean up your own house?"
Luo Changfeng said softly.
The Carefree Monk was still sitting leisurely beneath the Stone Pavilion,
shaking the broken wooden fan in his hand,
squinting his eyes with a very comfortable expression.
"Clean up the house?"
"Why clean up the house?"
"What benefit is there for me?"
"I don't do things that offer no benefit..."
"Besides..."
The Carefree Monk was speaking when he suddenly closed his mouth and pointed to the sky with his broken wooden fan.
Seeing this, Luo Changfeng instantly understood.
He knew what the fellow wanted to say.

Wasn't it just that the will of the heavens and earth was watching him?
But typically,
if actions were beneficial to this realm, shouldn't the will of the heavens and earth turn a blind eye?
Now, the Carefree Monk brought up the will of the heavens and earth again,
Luo Changfeng really wasn't sure what this guy was saying was true or false...
"Fine then!"
Luo Changfeng nodded helplessly.
He then stopped paying attention to the Carefree Monk in front of him.
He just picked up the teacup in his hand and drank.
While sipping tea, he pondered over the White Brahma Temple and the sacred relic, the White Brahma Lotus.
...
The next day, early in the morning,
When the sky was just beginning to lighten,
Luo Mountain Prefecture, Qingshi City, Luo Family Ancestral Land.
In the room of the Luo Family Patriarch,
Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, sat quietly in the main seat.
Luo Ping was leisurely drinking hot tea and easing through the approval of the memorials presented by his aides.
"Hmm?"
"What is this?"
As he read, Luo Ping suddenly set down his teacup.
He sat up straight, his expression turning serious as he looked at the content of the memorial.
[Help requested from the Great Hanging Temple of White Lotus Prefecture...]
Yes, that was essentially what the memorial was about.
And the action suggested on the memorial was to ignore the plea for help from the Great Hanging Temple of White Lotus Prefecture.
"But!"
After silently nodding,
Luo Ping wrote a big "But" on the document.
Honestly, the Great Hanging Temple was somewhat puzzling.
Matters within White Lotus Prefecture should be resolved by the forces within the prefecture.
Moreover, the White Brahma Temple was also one of the Buddhist forces.
Not to mention that the Luo Family was currently in a critical period of competition with powers such as Feng Wumian and Feng Wuhen.
Even if the Luo Family had nothing else to do,
it would not be appropriate for them to interfere in the affairs of other prefectures.
"Great Hanging Temple..."
After whispering to himself, Luo Ping shook his head with a smile.
Subsequently, he placed that memorial in the pile marked [Processed].
He reached out with his right hand and casually took another one from the [Unprocessed] pile,
Opened it and began to read it slowly.
...
Da Feng Dynasty, Xunyang Prefecture, Ke Family Ancestral Land.
In the room of the Ke Family Patriarch,
Ke Xiaowen, the current Family Head of the Ke Family, was sitting.
His face was grim as he sat in the main seat.
Although Ke Xiaowen managed to remain calm,
lately, he had been struggling to control his emotions.
Initially, the prospects for the Ke Family were very promising.
Having taken Changli Prefecture, they could proceed to plan against other forces.
Coincidently, during this period,
Feng Wumian, the New Emperor of the Da Feng Dynasty, who controlled two prefectures, was continuously attacking Qingcheng Prefecture.
Meanwhile, both Feng Wuhen and the Luo Family,
Had amassed a large army,
Waiting to divide up everything within Qingcheng Prefecture.
It was undoubtedly the best opportunity for the Ke Family of Xunyang Prefecture to grow.
But it was because of the Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture
That besides amassing troops in the border cities,
The Ke Family of Xunyang Prefecture did not dare to act rashly in any other matter.
