The Purple-Robed Celestial Master has turned into a zombie?! Who can stand that?!

Chapter 194 Possession, Reincarnation, and Re-cultivation
The Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain listened to the couple's words, and their gazes became strange. They exchanged glances and could all tell that something was amiss.

On Mount Longhu, Master Xuanqing asked, "After this incident occurred in your area, didn't you choose to call the police? Didn't you allow the police to investigate?"

The couple said, "We called the police, but every time the police went to Leiyin Temple, they said it was closed and that no visitors would be seen during the closure."

But later, they arranged for the child to meet with us. After the meeting, the child behaved normally and said he wanted to stay at Leiyin Temple, so the police left.

The couple was in despair.

They could clearly see that something was wrong with their child, but they couldn't find any evidence.

Even after the police were called, the child behaved perfectly normally when they arrived, so there was nothing the police could do.

But as soon as the police left, things changed again.

They were also tormented, and there was nothing they could do.

Thinking that the police couldn't help them, and considering the recent news about Longhu Mountain and its fearless stance against Buddhism, they had no choice but to come to Longhu Mountain, hoping to try their luck and find a Taoist priest to help them.

After listening to the couple's story, the senior Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain said that they would let the couple stay on Longhu Mountain first, and that they would hold a meeting to discuss the matter.

We're also waiting for the Celestial Master to emerge from seclusion, since he went into seclusion immediately after returning from the cherry blossom sea last time. Judging by the days, he should be coming out of seclusion soon.

The couple were taken to rest.

The high-ranking Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain also informed Master Xuanzhen of this news.

Xuanzhen Celestial Master had originally planned to emerge from seclusion, but upon hearing about this matter, he came out ahead of schedule.

Subsequently, the Taoist priests and Celestial Masters on Longhu Mountain held a meeting to discuss this matter.

Xuanzhen Celestial Master: "Everyone, what are your thoughts on this matter?"

Master Xuanqing said, "There are three possibilities: first, amnesia; second, possession; third, someone from the Western Buddhist sect has been reborn into this body."

They themselves are practitioners of spiritual cultivation, and Buddhism is essentially Taoism. Although their systems are different, they also have commonalities.

After all, the great paths lead to the same destination.

The Taoist priests present were also aware of some of the inside stories.

Generally, there are only three possibilities in this situation.

However, the possibility of amnesia is extremely low; it's practically impossible. Those who know, know.

The latter two have a higher probability.

Is it possession or the reincarnation of a powerful Buddhist master?
There was also a Taoist priest on Longhu Mountain who was somewhat furious at this moment.

"These shameless bald monks, whether they've possessed someone or reincarnated, it's something no human could do."

"Only they would do something so despicable as to harm a child."

"He usually portrays himself as virtuous and upright, with a noble image, but the things he does are worse than those of demons."

Regardless of which method is used, it's shameless enough.

A Taoist priest looked at Celestial Master Xuanzhen: "Should we tell that couple about this? Celestial Master, is Longhu Mountain going to get involved in this matter?"

“Our relationship with Buddhism is already bad. If we take on this matter, we will completely break ties with Buddhism.”

Xuanzhen Celestial Master said, "Our Taoist school teaches us to follow our true nature and eliminate demons and monsters."

Since they've come to our Longhu Mountain for help, we can't refuse. Besides, this is a case of Buddhism being unreasonable; if they're capable of such actions, they shouldn't blame others for causing them trouble.

Tear your face?
The relationship wasn't good to begin with, so what's the harm in tearing things apart? It wouldn't be a loss for the Taoist sect anyway; if this matter blows up, it's the Buddhist sect that will lose face.

"Should we inform the Ancestral Master about this? After all, if we directly confront Leiyin Temple, their strength should not be underestimated."

Xuanzhen thought about it for a moment.

Indeed, if it were just the forces within Leiyin Temple, with Xuanzhen and the Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain present, there would be nothing to fear.

Longhu Mountain has no problem controlling Leiyin Temple. But the real fear is that there might be a powerful being inside the temple who has possessed another's body or been reincarnated.

Moreover, it also depends on how much the other party's strength has recovered, since those who are reborn through possession are generally extremely strong in their previous lives.

If such a powerful figure were to be hidden inside, they would be no match for him.

In addition, the Celestial Master has been quite harsh in suppressing Buddhism recently.

If they go looking for trouble with Leiyin Temple, and they can't win, they could easily be detained by Leiyin Temple, which would be quite a headache.

Therefore, this matter still needs to be considered carefully, and Xuanzhen Celestial Master finally decided to tell Ancestral Celestial Master about it.

If possible, it would be best if the Celestial Master went with them, so that there would be an absolute guarantee.

Xuanzhen also informed the authorities about this matter.

We hope to draw some resources from the official side as well.

Since the last time the Cherry Blossom and Chrysanthemum faction was dealt with, Longhu Mountain has maintained close contact with the authorities.

Master Xuanzhen had no problem contacting the authorities.

After he reported the matter to the authorities, they took it very seriously, since it involved a child.

If Leiyin Temple is really that outrageous, it definitely needs to be suppressed.

We can't let them continue to act so recklessly.

The authorities have stated that they will cooperate with the Longhu Mountain operation, and if the evidence is conclusive, they can shut down Leiyin Temple if necessary.

After receiving official support, Xuanzhen Celestial Master also contacted Ancestral Celestial Master.

He relayed this matter to Zhang Tianlu, who was shocked after hearing it.

He never expected Leiyin Temple to become so outrageous.

Anyone with even a little knowledge of the situation knows that the child's circumstances are definitely not simple.

To Zhang Tianlu's surprise, Westerners actually dared to do this.

Whether it's possession or reincarnation, both directly violate the law.

Moreover, it is subject to the triple pressure of mortal laws, heavenly laws, and underworld laws.

If it was done by the demonic sect or demons, that would be one thing, since demonic cultivators and demons don't follow the rules anyway, and if they catch you, you'll just be killed.

But it was Leiyin Temple and the West that did this.

This is outrageous.

They're really not afraid of being discovered.

If this matter comes to light and the evidence is conclusive, it will be no laughing matter.

It is feared that all of Buddhism's arrangements in the mortal world will collapse.

Zhang Tianlu already harbored resentment towards Buddhism, and now that he had this opportunity to settle scores with them, he certainly wouldn't let it pass. Moreover, this time it was the Leiyin Temple of Buddhism that suddenly stabbed them in the back.

Zhang Tianlu: Thank you, Buddhism, for disabling its own martial arts!

Zhang Tianlu then replied to Xuanzhen.

He said he was very interested in this matter and asked Xuanzhen to wait for him at Longhu Mountain, saying he would come shortly.

Upon receiving a definitive reply from the Celestial Master, Xuanzhen felt instantly reassured.

With this patriarch around, there's nothing to worry about!

Leiyin Temple?
Just do it and that's it.
