Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 954: Saintess Luo Ye
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
A celestial vessel.
Streaking like a meteor, it hurtled through the skies above the Land of Thousands of Buddhas.
"Saintess, don’t you want to save me anymore?"
Growing bored and reluctant to cultivate, Ye Yun approached the White-clothed Saintess and settled down opposite her.
One zhang of space lay between them.
"It’s not that I don’t want to save you, but with the stubborn Yinfuti, my grasp of Buddhist teachings isn’t deep enough yet, leaving me powerless for now."
The White-clothed Saintess parted her starry eyes slightly and let out a soft sigh.
"You, how dare you get so close to the Saintess. Do you intend to show her disrespect?"
The Yoga Godlord furrowed her brows and berated him sharply.
"I’m merely a cultivator at the Divine Monarch Realm. How would I dare disrespect the Saintess? Yoga Godlord, how many eyes does it take for you to perceive such profound matters?"
Ye Yun gave a faint smile, his words laced with mockery.
"You..."
Anger made the Yoga Godlord’s slender brows shoot upward.
"Yoga Godlord, no need for anger; why fuss over a Yinfuti like me? It harms your well-being, and how will you pursue the Truth to attain the Divine King Realm later?"
Ye Yun shrugged helplessly, grinning.
"You’re hiding behind the Saintess, ignoring me completely—do you want a lesson from me?!"
The Yoga Godlord glared fiercely, hiking up her sleeves to reveal a delicate jade-like arm, her tone menacing.
"I’m a guest of the Holy Buddha Sect, and I’ve offered such a rare Mandala Immortal Tea—would you really dare strike me?"
Ye Yun chuckled lightly.
"I..."
The Yoga Godlord found herself speechless, unable to counter Ye Yun’s points.
The Immortal Tea within the Jade Bottle held immense value.
For this treasure, the Saintess had boldly confronted both Happy Buddha Ancestor and Buddha Flame Old Ancestor.
Although the Yoga Godlord ruled as Sect Master of Yoga Master Palace with vast influence in the Western Buddha Region, Yoga Master Palace remained merely a subordinate branch of the Holy Buddha Sect in the Land of Thousands of Buddhas.
Her position fell far short of the Saintess’s.
Thus, the Yoga Godlord refrained from directly challenging the Saintess.
Noticing the Yoga Godlord’s silence, Ye Yun shifted his attention to the White-clothed Saintess.
"Saintess, calling you so formally feels too distant. What’s your Dharma name?"
His eyes swept over her exquisite, peach-blossom face as Ye Yun smiled and inquired.
"Everyone knows me as the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman..."
The White-clothed Saintess opened her red lips and replied serenely.
Though Ye Yun’s gaze carried a hint of playfulness and boldness, the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman stayed composed, her mind undisturbed.
In some ways, her mastery of Buddhist principles had achieved a remarkable depth.
"Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman—a beautiful name indeed..."
Ye Yun nodded with a smile.
The White-clothed Saintess shut her eyes once more, ending the exchange with Ye Yun.
"This arrogant young master shows no respect, even flirting with the Saintess. He’s surely courting death..."
Watching Ye Yun banter with the Saintess, Master Hongyun seethed with rage, his mouth corners twitching uncontrollably.
He yearned for Ye Yun’s swift end, paving his path to glory.
Yet he kept such notions buried deep inside.
"Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman, I know a method to let you save me successfully. Care to listen?"
Ye Yun’s eyes sparkled as he grinned.
Hearing this, the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman reopened her starry eyes, gazing at him with keen curiosity.
Noting her interest, Ye Yun held back, teasingly prolonging the suspense.
"What’s your method?"
Unable to hold back after twenty breaths, the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman finally inquired.
Succeeding in saving a Yinfuti would stun the entire Land of Thousands of Buddhas.
Then, crowds would flock to the Holy Buddha Sect’s gates.
"Simply become my Dao companion, and I’ll count that as your salvation complete. After that, I’ll fully embrace Buddhism and shun all mortal ties!"
Ye Yun burst into laughter.
"Hah, a lazy toad dreaming of swan meat! Who is the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman? Why bother with romantic entanglements? Hmph, utter fool!"
The Yoga Godlord sneered loudly.
"Yoga Godlord, you old hag, mind your manners! It’s not your turn to talk—shut it!"
Ye Yun barked harshly.
If not for their prior connection, he’d have acted against her already.
However.
Currently, the Yoga Godlord didn’t recognize Ye Yun’s face, though he knew her.
She had left a favorable mark on him.
"What did you say? Calling me an old woman?!"
Fuming, the Yoga Godlord lunged toward Ye Yun.
"Stop!"
With a wave, the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman halted the Yoga Godlord mid-air.
The Yoga Godlord sighed helplessly and retreated in embarrassment.
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman grasped the Saintess’s intentions.
Indeed, upon receiving a bottle of Mandala Immortal Tea, the Saintess would never permit harm to befall this individual.
In particular, as this person was the fabled Yinfuti, holding immeasurable value for every Buddhist Sect influence across the Land of Thousands of Buddhas!
"Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman, are you interested in my proposal?"
Noticing the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman protecting him, Ye Yun felt a surge in his heart and questioned her with a grin.
"Not interested."
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman slowly shook her head, stating, "As Yinfuti with such a resolute nature, redemption through Buddhist teachings demands far more than simple intent!"
"You don’t believe?"
Ye Yun raised an eyebrow, murmuring gently, "Although I’m Yinfuti, my bond with Buddhism is profound. Delving deeply into its teachings, I might even rival you!"
"I don’t believe."
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman declared resolutely.
"Believe it or not!"
Ye Yun shrugged helplessly.
Her deep comprehension of Buddhist principles made this young woman impervious to his earlier flirtatious maneuvers.
Suddenly.
A streak of brilliance plummeted from the heavens onto the celestial boat.
As the radiance dimmed, an elderly monk in white robes emerged.
His features etched with age, hair and beard snow-white, his pristine white robe emanated a transcendent vibe, evoking the bearing of an enlightened master.
"Greetings, Master!"
The White-clothed Saintess, upon seeing the old monk, altered her expression and promptly rose to bow.
"Greetings, Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor!"
The Yoga Godlord’s demeanor shifted dramatically too, as he delivered a deep salute.
"Luo Ye, who is this person?"
The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor eyed Ye Yun, his brows creasing faintly.
"Master, these two have settled their payment and now ride as passengers on the celestial boat..."
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman explained with sincerity.
"What nonsense, what payment could impress you so?"
A trace of irritation flickered across the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor’s face.
These two youthful cultivators—one True God Realm, the other Divine Monarch Realm—how could they deserve passage on his Divine King Realm disciple’s celestial boat?
"Please take a look, Master!"
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman offered the white jade bottle to the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor.
"What kind of tea is this!"
Upon uncorking the bottle, the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor’s face twisted in shock, and he swiftly sealed it shut once more.
Deeply versed in Buddhism though he was, the overwhelming allure of the tea leaves proved too much for him to withstand.
"Mandala Immortal Tea!
Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor, I’ve offered such exquisite tea, yet I’m still unworthy of boarding the celestial boat?"
Ye Yun sneered coldly nearby.
"Since this tea... came from your hand, you are indeed qualified!"
The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor conceded awkwardly.
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman grew solemn, whispering softly, "Master, truth be told, this gentleman is the legendary Yinfuti. I attempted his salvation before but failed. Even the Happy Buddha Ancestor tried and failed as well..."
"What! You say—he’s Yinfuti?"
The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor recoiled in shock.
"Indeed, he is the legendary Yinfuti!"
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman confirmed firmly.
"Ah, the Jade Buddha Sect toiled for years to redeem a Yinfuti, scheming to proclaim it widely and overshadow our Holy Buddha Sect, but now my disciple possesses a Yinfuti too..."
The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor’s face shifted, as he murmured to himself.
