Supreme Zombie King, I have been sealed away for eight hundred years.

The entire online store belongs to Lin Yi...

"Hmm, I really didn't expect your business to be so large!" Ma Xiaoling was surprised, looking at the person in front of her.

It's no surprise that the online store belongs to Lin Yi.

Surprisingly, it's unclear just how many such businesses Lin Yi owns. Could he possibly own all the general industries in Hong Kong Island?

After all, Lin Yi could use variables to influence everything at hand...

"Welcome, Ms. Ma!" The mall manager walked over, bowed to Ma Xiaoling, and handed her a card: "Ms. Ma, this is our mall's VIP card, which offers a 30% discount on any item. Unlimited discounts."

"Who are you?" Ma Xiaoling frowned slightly as she looked at the person in front of her, then her gaze turned to Lin Yi.

"Take it," Lin Yi said to Ma Xiaoling.

Ma Xiaoling accepted the VIP card without hesitation.

However, Ma Xiaoling frowned and looked at the person in charge of the mall. She felt that the person looked familiar. Where had she seen him before?

I can't remember right now.

"You can go now," Lin Yi said to the person in charge of the mall.

"Yes, boss." The person in charge respectfully withdrew.

Ma Xiaoling, lost in thought, gazed at Lin Yi…

"By the way, the Purple Dragon King Ginseng lives in the Zombie Agreement Building. You're really something. Just how many figures from the Song Dynasty eight hundred years ago have had their fates rewritten by you and appeared in the present day?" Ma Xiaoling asked, staring at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi didn't answer Ma Xiaoling's question directly.

Instead, he stared at Ma Xiaoling.

"Mao You and the Holy Mother of Yaochi are together, aren't they? Also, you were very careless and let Tianya follow you." Lin Yi said, looking at Ma Xiaoling.

Tianya?

"You mean, Tianya was following me before? Looks like you've shaken off that tagalong for me. Thanks. But I'm curious, why couldn't I let Tianya follow me?" Ma Xiaoling frowned slightly, staring at Lin Yi, and asked.

why?

"Ma Xiaoling, do you really want to know?" Lin Yi stared at Ma Xiaoling and asked.

Ma Xiaoling frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Why do I always feel that what Lin Yi says is absolutely shocking?

It seems that this matter has a lot to do with Ma Xiaoling?

"Go ahead and say it," Ma Xiaoling said, looking at Lin Yi with a determined gaze, having prepared herself mentally.

Ma Xiaoling will not avoid the issue.

She really wanted to know Kuang Tianya's identity and background.

Why do I always find Ma Xiaoling disagreeable?

"If I told you that the girl is Kuang Tianyou's child, would you believe me?" Lin Yi asked Ma Xiaoling.

Tianyou's child?

"Lin Yi, you've really gone too far..." Ma Xiaoling stared intently at Lin Yi, her expression grim.

She felt that Lin Yi's words had offended her.

The other person's words were very offensive.

No, Lin Yi wouldn't say something like that... I need to calm down.

"Um, I'm sorry. I got too emotional. Please continue," Ma Xiaoling said, looking at Lin Yi.

She also felt that Lin Yi wasn't just talking nonsense.

Because of Lin Yi's expression, she knew that Lin Yi had even more explosive news to tell her.

Her emotional outburst stemmed entirely from the fact that she felt things were beyond her comprehension.

However...deep down, she also had her own speculations.

"You probably guessed what I was going to say, right? So, your temporary inability to accept it or your surprise won't make you, Ma Xiaoling, lose your rationality in making assumptions," Lin Yi said, looking at Ma Xiaoling.

Kuang Tianya's true identity will eventually be revealed.

If I hadn't said it earlier, Ma Xiaoling would probably have found out by tonight, or in the next day or two.

The appearance of the Holy Mother of Yaochi could cause Kuang Tianya to lose control at any moment.

Because Kuang Tianya hates the Holy Mother of Yaochi.

Once Kuang Tianya loses control, he becomes agitated and reveals that Ma Xiaoling is his mother.

Whether Ma Xiaoling believes it or not is up to her.

"You mean...? Hmm, let me calm down." A bizarre idea flashed through Ma Xiaoling's mind, and she lowered her head to think.

After a while.

When Ma Xiaoling looked up, she found that Lin Yi had disappeared.

Her gaze was intense as she pondered, finding it difficult to accept and understand.

Does this mean that Tianya (天涯) is from another time...?

Whether she believes what Lin Yi said is entirely up to her.

So her mind was in turmoil!

The location of Tongtiange.

While Yaochi Shengmu and Mao You were still chatting, Yaochi Shengmu suddenly asked curiously, "I heard that you possess the divine power of the Buddha Heart Fire Lotus? Do you know that the Buddha Heart Fire Lotus is not something that can be given to just anyone?"

The Buddha-hearted Fire Lotus, a gift received?

Mao You frowned slightly, quite surprised, and looked at the Holy Mother of Yaochi.

"Why do you say it was a gift?" Mao You asked, looking at the Holy Mother of Yaochi with a puzzled expression.

"You don't understand yet, do you? The Buddha Heart Fire Lotus can't be cultivated. You need a Fire Lotus as a catalyst. And there's another prerequisite: a Buddha Heart." The Holy Mother of Yaochi stared at Mao You and said.

Buddha's heart?

"You mean, it's related to the Buddha's heart?" Mao You asked, frowning as he stared at the Holy Mother of Yaochi, puzzled.

“Only when nurtured by the Buddha’s heart can one attain the Lotus of the Buddha’s Heart. Once nurtured, its power is extraordinary. It can bring about rebirth and deliver all beings from suffering. It can also burn away karmic obstacles, causing people to endure endless torment.” The Holy Mother of Yaochi looked at Mao You with burning eyes.

The Buddha Heart Fire Lotus is nurtured by the treasures of nature.

Its powerful substance was bestowed upon Mao You.

It is evident that the Buddha of Lingshan highly valued Lin Yi.

As a result, the karmic retribution for the Buddha's rebellious actions on Mount Ling will be even heavier.

As long as destiny persists, the Buddha will never return.

They will always have to endure the suffering of bad luck in the cycle of reincarnation.

"The Buddha endured endless suffering for this. Mao You, you must make good use of the Buddha's Heart Lotus. Otherwise, the Buddha's suffering will have been in vain," the Holy Mother of Yaochi said to fate with a sigh.

Buddha?

"What does this have to do with Buddha?" Mao You was even more surprised and couldn't understand it.

The Holy Mother of Yaochi looked at Mao You with a thoughtful expression, offering no hasty explanation.

After a moment of contemplation, she continued to ask Mao You, "Do you believe in fate?"

Believe in fate?

“Yes, fate is ethereal and elusive, yet its power is extraordinary. The fate of all living beings in heaven and earth is predetermined by heaven; Uncle Qiu once said that a person's fate is predetermined by heaven! But I, Mao You, do not believe in fate!” Mao You looked intently at the Holy Mother of Yaochi and said.

She would never say she believed in fate in front of the Holy Mother of Yaochi.

She didn't believe in fate to begin with.

"You truly are a successor to Mao Xiaofang. You and Ma Xiaoling are alike, knowing your fate yet refusing to accept it. I admire you both, which is why I'm willing to talk to you. However, sometimes, refusing to accept fate isn't an option. For example, you, Mao You, lost Mars," said the Holy Mother of Yaochi, looking at Mao You.

Mars?

"And me? Don't I also possess the Buddha's Heart Fire Lotus and a body full of Buddhist power? Is this fate's arrangement? Or Lin Yi's arrangement?" Fate stared intently at the Holy Mother of Yaochi.

Lin Yi?

“Yes, Lin Yi is indeed a surprising existence, even to a god like me. That’s why Buddha gave you the Buddha Heart Fire Lotus.” The Holy Mother of Yaochi sighed, then looked at Mao You.

That's why you gave me the Buddha Heart Fire Lotus?

"Hmm, so what you meant when you asked me if I believed in fate was that everything was because the Buddha gave me the Lotus of Buddha's Heart out of consideration for Lin Yi... That's not the key point. The main thing is that the Buddha also wanted to break free from the shackles of fate?" Mao You stared at the Holy Mother of Yaochi, finally understanding.

The Holy Mother of Yaochi wanted to tell her that the Buddha did not simply follow the will of Heaven and make everyone abide by the laws of destiny.

Throughout ancient myths and legends, it has been said that those who defy the will of Heaven will inevitably suffer divine retribution. Even gods and Buddhas uphold the principles of Heaven and maintain the balance of the Three Realms.

Those who act against the will of Heaven and greatly affect the majesty of Heaven will be punished by the gods and Buddhas on Heaven's behalf.

The evil mentioned here refers to demons and evil spirits.

Even monsters can be good monsters.

For example, zombies can also be descendants of generals.

Not all zombies of this type are bad.

“That’s right. If gods and Buddhas act against the will of Heaven, they will suffer the five signs of decay. And sometimes, gods and Buddhas are also helpless. They know what is truly good and evil, but sometimes they can only follow the will of Heaven and eradicate evil completely. Is everything really evil?” The Holy Mother of Yaochi said, looking at Mao You.

Mao You pondered the words of the Holy Mother of Yaochi.

If something looks like an evil spirit but does good deeds, then it is an evil spirit.

Demons are not tolerated by time, and zombies are even less so.

But are they all really evil?

Kuang Tianyou, whose life had been covered up, wished to start over. Buddha granted his wish.

So Buddha granted a zombie's wish. Does this mean Buddha disrespected divine authority and became evil?

That's not how it works...
