Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

Seeing Zhang Tianyuan's fearless gaze, Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly and said, "People are foolish and do not listen to teachings!"

He paused and then said, "Zhang Tianyuan, I'm asking you, has your family been producing pearls in recent months?"

"So what?"

Zhang Tianyuan replied, "Now that it's been discovered, there's no point in hiding it anymore."

Li Xiuyuan said calmly, "To produce pink pearls, you need to cultivate a lot of oysters, and your fiancée is a thousand-year-old oyster spirit."

Otherwise, how do you think she could produce so many pink pearls? If she hadn't fed the oysters with her own blood, how could she have produced them so easily?

He paused and continued, "It should be known that the blood of a thousand-year-old clam spirit contains an incomparably powerful essence, which is why it can produce pearls overnight."

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the three people.

Wow!

Everyone was greatly surprised after hearing this.

"No wonder the Zhang family has been spending so lavishly lately; it turns out they're producing pearls."

"Look at the bride and groom's suits, how beautifully they're made! They must be rich."

"Yeah yeah!"

"Fortunately, the holy monk appeared in time; otherwise, drinking this cup of wedding wine might have cost us our lives."

The most abundant types of people in China are those who miss out on excitement, and those who, unable to taste the grapes, claim they are sour.

Chapter 279 Destroying a Marriage

After the group saw that the Zhang family's life began to improve.

Once you understand the cause and effect, you can't help but make sarcastic remarks!

After hearing this, Madam Zhang looked at Mingzhu with a slightly suspicious gaze. She already felt that Mingzhu's origins were unknown, and with the production of these pink pearls, she was ninety percent certain that this person was a demon.

"Tianyuan, quickly come with your grandmother to the holy monk!"

Madam Zhang hurriedly called out, and she took Zhang Tianyuan's hand, wanting to lead him over.

"No, how could a pearl be a thousand-year-old clam spirit! I don't believe it."

As he spoke, Zhang Tianyuan shook off his grandmother's hand and looked at Mingzhu beside him with deep affection.

Zhang Tianyuan said tenderly, "Mingzhu, quickly tell everyone that you are not a monster."

Even as he spoke, he still firmly believed that his wife was a person.

Swish!

Mingzhu removed her bridal veil. As she listened to Zhang Tianyuan's questioning, tears welled in her eyes. But now that she had been exposed, she could no longer hide it.

Mingzhu looked at Zhang Tianyuan and said in a sobbing voice, "Tianyuan, I didn't mean to deceive you."

After saying that, she admitted that she was a monster.

"No........"

After roaring, Zhang Tianyuan felt completely lost and couldn't believe that the woman he loved was actually a monster.

"Tengen, you must believe me. Although I am a demon, when I was with you, did I ever deceive you?"

As she spoke, Mingzhu earnestly tried to persuade Zhang Tianyuan to forgive her.

"Heh heh! You monster, you say that but you're just deceiving me."

Tell me, what do you want by lurking beside me? Are you planning to devour me in secret? Tell me!

As he spoke, Zhang Tianyuan became somewhat frantic, but he absolutely distrusted Mingzhu. First of all, the two of them had only been together for three months.

The timeline was a year and a half shorter than in the original novel. During this period, the two developed feelings for each other and were about to get married when Li Xiuyuan unexpectedly appeared.

Zhang Tianyuan's personality was never very good. In the original story, he was fickle and unpredictable. At that time, he did not know that Mingzhu was a demon, but he had some feelings for Bai Ling.

Later, in order to please Bai Ling, she murdered Mingzhu, the woman who had been sleeping with her husband. If Daoji hadn't intervened, she would have known about it much earlier.

Moreover, when Zhang Tianyuan learned that Mingzhu was a monster, he immediately wanted to be with Bai Ling, which shows that his character was indeed not very good.

If it weren't for that pearl spirit mistakenly believing Zhang Tianyuan to be her savior, how could she have fallen in love with him!

"Tianyuan, you must believe me, I would never harm you."

Upon seeing Zhang Tianyuan's appearance, Mingzhu pleaded desperately.

"Heh! You are human, I am a demon. Humans and demons are different, how can you expect me to trust you? Holy Monk Daoji, please save me quickly, I don't want to die."

As he spoke, Zhang Tianyuan rushed over and hid behind Li Xiuyuan, afraid that Mingzhu would bother him again.

"Good! I knew it all along. You woman of unknown origin are no good. You're actually a thousand-year-old clam spirit. Luckily, the holy monk appeared in time, otherwise my Zhang family wouldn't even know when disaster struck!"

After seeing her son, Madam Zhang no longer held back. She already disliked Mingzhu, and now she couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks to her. Only with Li Xiuyuan present did the others dare to watch the show from the sidelines.

"grandmother!"

Mingzhu cried out.

"Hmph, I don't have a granddaughter-in-law like you. Get out of my Zhang family."

Madam Zhang started scolding again. Her temperament wasn't great either, but it was better than Zhang Tianyuan's.

"Monster, get out of my Zhang family now and stop bothering me!"

As he spoke, Zhang Tianyuan began to curse and swear. In fact, his feelings for Mingzhu were not as strong as he had imagined.

First of all, Zhang Tianyuan was a scholar. When he saw that Mingzhu could produce pink pearls, coupled with her initiative, he became friends with her.

In Zhang Tianyuan's neighboring village, there was a girl he knew well, but why would she marry Mingzhu? It was because she wanted to obtain the method for producing pink pearls.

Having grown accustomed to the life of the poor, Zhang Tianyuan yearned for the life of the rich. In his eyes, Mingzhu was simply a mobile treasure trove.

This explains why Zhang Tianyuan married Mingzhu, a woman of unknown origin!

"Tian Yuan!"

Mingzhu cried out, as if she couldn't believe it. Just a moment ago, they were happily getting married and bowing to heaven and earth!

In just a short time, it became a target of universal condemnation.

"Monster, get out of here!"

"Get out of here!"

"You're not welcome here."

...................

When Mingzhu saw everyone cursing at her, her already heartbroken heart sank even deeper. How could things have come to this?

After thinking about this, Mingzhu couldn't help but look at Li Xiuyuan beside her. It was he who caused her marriage to fall apart, caused her to be abandoned by Tianyuan, and caused her to be cursed by her grandmother and neighbors.

Seeing the resentful look in Mingzhu's eyes, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but sigh and said, "Amitabha! As the saying goes, 'Humans and demons are destined to meet!' Clam spirit, stop being so deluded. You should convert to Buddhism to attain enlightenment."

As he spoke, he clasped one hand together and looked at Mingzhu beside him.

At this moment, Mingzhu had already removed the bridal veil from her head, revealing her original appearance. Her eyebrows were long and delicate, and she had abandoned the pearl flowers and tassels. Her long black hair was simply tied up with a finely carved plum blossom hairpin, and she wore light makeup.

Her delicate eyebrows arched like distant mountains, her dark hair was thick and green, like spring mist, and she possessed a kind of ethereal beauty, like the clouds and mist of Wushan.

Mingzhu's eyes were like water, yet carried a faint chill, as if she could see through everything. Her ten fingers were slender, her skin was like solidified cream, snow-white with a hint of pink, as if you could wring water out of it.

"Alright! This stinky monk will convert to Buddhism with you."

Chapter 280 Space Blade

"Alright! This stinky monk will convert to Buddhism with you."

As she spoke, Mingzhu's face turned cold, sending chills down the spines of those around her, who all took a few steps back.

Even though Li Xiuyuan knew in his heart that Mingzhu was not being sincere after hearing her words, he still smiled and said, "Amitabha! If you, the female benefactor, are willing to convert to Buddhism, you will suffer less."

As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and looked at Mingzhu beside him.

After witnessing the exchange between Li Xiuyuan and the clam spirit, a chill inexplicably rose in everyone's hearts, and the villagers couldn't help but step back.

When the pearl saw that Li Xiuyuan was still arguing with her, she sneered, "Fine, you stinky monk, take this slap from your grandma."

Having said that, she raised her jade palm, and a red light of enlightenment rushed over, burning the surrounding air to an unbearable heat.

Seeing the thousand-year-old clam spirit make its move, Li Xiuyuan sneered, "Demon, if you insist on being so stubborn, I have no choice but to use my demon-subduing methods."

As he spoke, he raised the Wind Spirit Fan in his hand, unleashing a golden light that neutralized her attack.

"Hmph, if that stinky monk is so sure, he should fight outside."

As she spoke, Mingzhu's figure flew away, and all the people saw was a red light of enlightenment as she soared into the sky and disappeared.

Mingzhu knew very well that Zhang Tianyuan's family was not well-off, and this thatched hut was their only property. If it were destroyed, it would cause the Zhang family great distress.

Upon seeing this, Li Xiuyuan's lips curled up, and he replied casually, "Fine, I'll go. Who's afraid of who!"

As they were talking, a golden light flashed like lightning, and in an instant, the two of them disappeared without a trace.

After the two men left, the crowd kowtowed in gratitude, exclaiming, "The holy monk has shown his power! The holy monk has shown his power!"

..............................................

In a short while, the two arrived at a desolate wilderness. Li Xiuyuan looked at the clam spirit in front of him and laughed, "Show me whatever skills you have, I will take them all."
