Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

“Benefactor Li,”

Bodhidharma took out a black token, handed it to him, and said with a smile, "This item may be useful to you, benefactor."

He added, "After our defeat in the past, I and an old friend established a sect, which we called the Demonic Sect. This is the token of the Demonic Sect. Within that sect, we also enshrine the skeleton of a deity from the Divine Realm."

“When you walk in the mortal world, you can’t always find a temple to hide in. But if you can take a piece of divine bone and wear it on your body, you can avoid the scrutiny of heaven and earth and the eyes of all living beings.”

"You may take this token and go to the Demonic Sect... However, I have not been out of the world for many years, and I do not know the true nature of this lineage."

Li Lan took the token, but couldn't help but be startled. The Demonic Sect?

"Don't worry, senior, the Demonic Sect still exists."

Li Lan said, "Several days ago, an elder of the Demonic Sect, Mo Shiwu, and his grandson helped me once."

Bodhidharma suddenly realized and said, "Little Fifteen... Haha, he's still alive? Back then, my old friend and I did take in a few children as our successors. If I count them on my fingers, Little Fifteen should be two or three thousand years old by now."

Li Lan's doubts were finally dispelled. He had been wondering why Zhuang Shenmo, a member of the Demonic Sect, possessed such profound Buddhist nature. Could it be the aptitude of a "Heavenly Rank Buddha Seed"?

So that's where the root of the problem lies!

His grandfather, Mo Shiwu, was a successor personally chosen by Bodhidharma, so he was naturally a person with Buddhist affinity. It is not surprising that Zhuang Shenmo had such innate talent.

"Your old friend, senior, is he... the Patriarch Chen Tuan?"

Suddenly, the Holy Maiden Cihang asked a question.

"That's him."

The Way of Bodhidharma.

Chen Tuan was one of the most famous Taoist patriarchs in ancient China!

Cihang Saintess's expression was slightly complicated. She had figured everything out. No wonder Zhuang Shenmo had secretly approached her and wanted to capture her... The reason was that Ancestor Chen Tuan was later trapped by their Cihang Holy Land and is now sealed within the Holy Land!

"To be honest, senior, I come from the Cihang Holy Land. Senior Chen Tuan was suppressed in the Holy Land."

She didn't hide it.

"It's good that we're not dead. As for whether we're suppressed or not, it doesn't matter... What difference does it make whether people like us live in seclusion in these deep mountains or are imprisoned in purgatory?"

Bodhidharma, however, did not care at all. He took out another scroll of scripture and handed it to Miao Wuyu, saying, "After years of hardship and boredom, I have written a few scrolls of scripture. You may want to take a look."

Miao Wuyu was surprised. Now that she had revealed her identity, Bodhidharma still treated her the same way after learning that her old friend was trapped in the Cihang Holy Land. He even gave her some scriptures.

She knew very well that although Bodhidharma spoke of it with great ease, these few volumes of scriptures must have been the culmination of his life's work!

"How could I, a junior, dare to accept such a thing..."

Her feelings were incredibly complicated.

"Don't refuse, you deserve these scriptures."

"If you have the chance, you might as well tell Chen Tuan about these few volumes of my scriptures. Haha, he has been arguing with me about the power of Buddhism and Taoism for thousands of years. I wonder if he has gained any new insights in recent years."

A hint of reminiscence appeared in Bodhidharma's aged eyes, and then he said, "Farewell, I wish you both smooth sailing."

"senior……"

Li Lan spoke, but Bodhidharma had already closed the temple doors, saying, "Go, and when you hear of the fall of a God-King in the Divine Realm, and the light of Buddha shines upon the Four Immortal Realms, that will be the day Bodhidharma returns to the world—"

Li Lan and Miao Wuyu stood outside the door, both of them sighing with admiration!

……

"You can go back."

After descending the mountain, Li Lan spoke to Miao Wuyu with a smile, saying, "You have already helped me through a calamity, so our debts are even."

But Miao Wuyu sighed softly and said, "Although you have repaid your debt of gratitude, you still owe Senior Bodhidharma a great deal."

“Since Senior Bodhidharma has asked you to go to the Demonic Sect, I will accompany you. Once you have established yourself in the Demonic Sect and obtained the Divine Bone… then I will have repaid Senior Bodhidharma’s kindness.”

Upon hearing this, Li Lan couldn't help but smile. What kind of thought process did Miao Wuyu have?

To repay Bodhidharma, so he helps himself?
