"But after so many years, you still haven't suppressed this idea?" Chu Yunxi asked.

The sword in Qingfeng's hand slowly dropped, and his voice gradually became lower. "I thought I had suppressed it. I see the abbot no more than three times a year. I am busy in this Bodhi Temple every day. I thought that when I was busy, I would not have to think about it. But no, I still can't help but pay attention to everything the abbot does. I know what she asked Chunying to buy and who she met. After more than ten years, I finally understand that I am afraid that I will never be able to get rid of my inner demons in this lifetime."

"Does the master know?" Chu Yunxi's voice also became low.

Qingfeng shook his head, then smiled bitterly and said, "But I'm afraid you already know it now."

The abbot of Bodhi Temple has great magical powers. It is impossible for her not to know about such a big thing happening here, especially since Qingfeng was confessing his love in public. However, she has not shown up until now, which means that she does not want to pay attention to this matter or respond to Qingfeng.

Chu Yunxi saw that Qingfeng was in a low mood, so she changed the subject, "Tell me how you killed the Four Young Masters of Qingcheng."

Qingfeng smiled indifferently, "Those few people just happened to see the back of the master of Bodhi Temple when they came with their fathers, so they had bad intentions. When they were talking about the master of Bodhi Temple behind their fathers' backs, I happened to hear them, and then I knew that these people had such bad intentions. I wanted to kill them with a sword at that time, but they are powerful in Kala City. If I acted rashly, I was afraid that it would implicate the master of the temple, so I endured it. I didn't expect these people to come to see the master again and again, and every time they came, they had dirty words. This time they even wanted to destroy Bodhi Temple. I couldn't stand it anymore, and finally made up my mind to kill them."

"So you used the excuse of feeling unwell and going back to your room to rest, but in the end you used Qinggong to rush down the mountain before them and waited halfway up the mountain. When they came down, you killed them all in one fell swoop, right?"

Qing Feng laughed at himself, "Yes, I was so angry that I used my sword to lure those people to a specific location before killing them. I also used different techniques to make sure they fell in the right place. I just wanted to tell everyone that they were wishful thinking and overestimating their abilities. I was very fast. After killing them, I checked the scene and found no flaws, so I left. I didn't expect that you would find me. Girl, you are amazing."

Chu Yunxi curled her lips and said, "It's not that I'm great, it's just that there can't be a perfect crime in this world. As long as something has been done, there must be traces to follow. I was just a little more careful. Taoist Qingfeng, since you have admitted that you killed the person, come back to Kala City with us."

Qingfeng suddenly burst into laughter. Chu Yunxi frowned, "What are you laughing at?"

Qingfeng smiled and said, "Girl, although you are powerful, you are also naive. I admit that I killed those people, but why should I go back to Kala City with you? I, Qingfeng, am a Bodhi Temple member in life and a Bodhi Temple ghost in death. Everyone has their own actions and responsibilities. Since I did something wrong, I will give my life to them."

After he finished speaking, he picked up the soft sword in his hand and slashed it across his neck. The Taoists and pilgrims around were holding their breath to listen to their conversation. No one expected that Qingfeng would actually commit suicide if he said so. Cries of surprise immediately sounded around. Wen Rulan reacted very quickly and used his long sword to block Qingfeng's sword, but he was still some distance away and it was too late.

It happened in a flash. Just when Qingfeng's sword was about to hit his neck, there was a crisp "ding" sound, and his sword was knocked to the ground by a hidden weapon. Chu Yunxi took a closer look and found that it was actually a silver needle, nailed to the ground and making a buzzing sound.

Qingfeng's internal strength was strong, but the owner of the hidden weapon knocked his sword away with just a silver needle, which showed that his internal strength was much stronger than Qingfeng's. Qingfeng was shocked, raised his head and murmured, "Master."

Everyone involuntarily followed his gaze and looked over, only to see a person standing at the highest point on the roof. She was dressed in white with fluttering sleeves, also in the attire of a Taoist nun, but she looked like an immortal.

Is this the legendary master of Bodhi Temple? Everyone opened their eyes wide, but unfortunately the distance was too far, no one could see her face clearly, only Chu Yunxi and Xiao Mubei knew what she looked like, and they also knew that in reality, she was not so celestial. It seemed that even a master had to pretend to maintain his image in front of the world.

At this time, the voice of the temple master came from afar, "I saved your life, taught you martial arts, and taught you Taoism, not to let you commit suicide. Qingfeng, if you do something wrong, you must be brave enough to take responsibility. You cannot judge others right or wrong at will, and you cannot judge yourself either. Go back to Kara City and atone for what you have done. Even if you die, you will no longer be covered with sins."

This means that he can go back to stand trial and be judged by the law. Even if he is sentenced to death, he has redeemed his sins and can live a clean life in the next life.

Qing Feng knelt down in front of the master and said, "Yes, I understand. I bid farewell to you. I am afraid we may never meet again. I just hope you will always be at peace and happy."

After a while, the master's voice came again, "Got it, go ahead."

Qingfeng bowed his head, and when he looked up again, there was no one on the roof.

He stood up, dusted off his Taoist robe, and said to Chu Yunxi with a normal expression: "Let's go back to Kala City."

The case finally came to an end. The guards arranged for the pilgrims to leave the mountain in an orderly manner. Wu Lingqi was responsible for escorting Qingfeng back to the city. Tie Niu and Xiao Huan packed up their things and prepared to leave, but they saw Chu Yunxi coming to them and asked, "I heard that your mother is sick?"

Tie Niu nodded subconsciously and asked: "Girl..."

Chu Yunxi said, "I know a little bit about medicine, and I can treat some diseases that other doctors can't. I can go down the mountain with you to see your mother."

Tie Niu asked in surprise: "Really?"

Chu Yunxi smiled, "Do you think I'm lying?"

Xiao Huan quickly hit Tie Niu and said to Chu Yunxi with an apologetic smile: "Don't blame me, young lady. Brother Tie Niu is just like this. He is not very good at talking. He didn't mean it like that. Thank you very much, young lady."

Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "No need to explain, I understand. My husband said that he and Tie Niu get along very well, so he asked me to help look after Lingci. Let's go."

Xiao Mubei came over and stood with Chu Yunxi. Tie Niu suddenly realized, "My brother, this is your wife. I'm sorry. In this case, thank you very much."
