The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 494 Admiration, Soul Refining [Part 3]

Under the spotlight.

The old moss patriarch solemnly handed a whisk imbued with profound and ancient charm to Feng Ling.

From then on, Feng Ling officially became the Honorary Ancestor of Qingtai Temple, second only to the Qingtai Ancestor.

"Come on, expel this man from Qingtai Temple! Our esteemed Qingtai Temple will not accept mediocre talents who are jealous of others' abilities!"

But the Green Moss Ancestor pointed at a female Daoist disciple with a bewildered expression standing beneath the gate of a certain cave, flicked his sleeve, and coldly snorted: "Such a narrow-minded person will never amount to anything!"

"Ancestor, please don't! Please give your disciple another chance! Your disciple promises to turn over a new leaf..."

Previously, the self-proclaimed excellent female Taoist disciple begged for mercy while crying bitterly. Her voice was faintly charming, which made many of those who fell for her charm feel weak in the knees. She had obviously used her bewitching power.

However, the old moss patriarch remained unmoved.

The three abbots of Qingtai Temple turned cold, and the nun Jingliu flicked her finger and sent out a beam of light, which dispersed the cultivation of the female Taoist nun.

Immediately afterwards, two burly Taoist priests from the two law enforcement halls stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, subdued him, and dragged him away.

"Master of the Seventy-Two Caves: Elder Meng has been running a gambling den in secret, leading a corrupt trend. Considering that you intended to hand over your ill-gotten gains to the public, I hereby order you to immediately settle all outstanding debts and then go to the Enforcement Hall of Venerable Ling to receive your punishment: a half-month salary deduction and a half-month period of solitary confinement, as a form of reprimand!"

The Old Ancestor of Green Moss pointed at a Taoist priest and continued his judgment, but it was somewhat like a lot of noise but little action.

Although Elder Qingtai was currently engrossed in the battle between his Dharma Body and Feng Ling, it did not mean that he was unaware that Elder Meng had set up a betting scheme.

On the contrary, the Moss Ancestor could have stopped the gambling in time.

However, in the end, they tacitly approved it first, and then symbolically pursued accountability afterwards.

The underlying reasons cannot be explored too deeply!

"Thank you for your mercy, Ancestor. I am willing to accept the punishment!"

Elder Meng bowed respectfully to the Green Moss Ancestor, and then, smiling, took out a small portion from the pile of Ghost and God Stones he had won at the opening ceremony and distributed them to the dozen or so cave masters and a handful of disciples who had come to claim their rewards with great excitement.

Among these disciples, Wang Han and Bai Lan's gains were the most enviable and desirable. The other disciples only dared to bet that Feng Ling would withstand the first blow, and they were betting on the Ghost Stone.

The two of them took a gamble, betting three God Stones at ten times the odds on Feng Ling passing the test. As a result, they won back thirty God Stones!
"Lord Ling, what brings you here? Please wait a moment. After I finish dealing with these trivial matters assigned by the Ancestor, I will accompany you to the Hall of Enforcement to receive my punishment and face the wall in silence!" "Ahem, Elder Meng, you are overthinking it. There's no need to panic! I've simply come to receive my reward..."

As he spoke, Lei Pusa pulled out seven purchase vouchers in full view of everyone: all for betting on God Stones, all for betting on ten times the odds, and all for betting on Feng Lingying!

"I see, please accept this!"

Seeing this, Elder Meng generously allocated seventy coins and handed them to Ling Weiyun.

He understood from the very beginning that he didn't care about winning or losing, since the patriarch would cover it all.

"Hiss! Elder Ling is truly a master of disguise. In order to avoid attracting attention, he ordered the disciples of the Enforcement Hall to disperse and place bets on seven God Stones. Now they have made a killing, winning back seventy stones!"

"Ah, this cave master was careless and didn't notice this detail, otherwise I would have been able to keep up!"

Watching the old man walk away to receive the award, the cave masters were filled with envy and regret.

Most of them bet on Feng Ling and lost, and the bets were huge, with many putting up half of their life savings.

The saying goes, "A little gambling is harmless, but excessive gambling is harmful."

Therefore, most of them suffered huge losses!
"Alright, I'm taking the Honorary Ancestor to his cave in the back mountain for seclusion to help him refine the remnant soul of Zhu Jiuyin! The three abbots will be responsible for maintaining order here to prevent these cave masters, who are eyeing the Divine Stone, from resorting to desperate measures to persecute Elder Meng!"

The Old Ancestor of Green Moss let out a rare laugh and a slight wave of his hand, pulling Feng Ling's figure to land on a cloud that had just been summoned, and then soared into the sky towards the back mountain.

Seeing this, the three abbots looked at each other in bewilderment.

Immediately, the three abbots looked at the cave masters whose eyes were red as if their Daoist partners had died and revealed a helpless smile.

Every time a creature hatches, it's a new beginning...

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages and saints offer you a pure land for your souls.
