first published on sis. Chapter 118:

Upon waking, I was still immersed in the sorrowful state of mind brought on by what I had seen and heard in my dream, somewhat dazed
about surroundings.
I was unsure whether I was alive or dead, or whether I was in a dream or reality. I sensed my surroundings, my hands trembling uncontrollably as
I touched the things I felt…

the hard floor tiles; the cold water flowing through my fingers; the strong stench of decay and
the acrid .

All of this reminded me of the experiences before I fell asleep.

"I… I'm still alive? This isn't scientific… Wasn't I clearly shot in the head by that man in the suit?
How come I'm not dead?"

Just as I realized this, I noticed the sounds coming from my ears again.

Screams, curses, and the sounds of unidentified objects colliding constantly flooded my ears,
echoing repeatedly in this closed, quiet ancient waterway.

"...It's Yan Jing and Li Jing! They're fighting that Rinpoche and his
henchmen ! Oh no...they outnumber them and have pistols. Yan Jing and Li Jing are no
match for them! I have to help..."

Realizing the situation, I didn't have time to think about why I
survived . I struggled to my feet, using my hands for support
, and grabbed a sickle that had fallen nearby. Staggering,
I stumbled .

Rounding the bend, a man in black came into view, illuminated by his lantern
. He was sitting on the steps by the ditch, bandaging his
wound. Hearing me wade through the water, he looked up blankly in my direction.

Because the lantern only illuminated part of his surroundings, he hadn't yet
clearly seen stumbled out of the darkness. I stopped bandaging him with a mixture of confusion and wariness, rising
to a defensive stance.

Panting, I took a deep breath, mustered all my strength to stop my trembling, and then roared as
I burst from the darkness, wielding my scythe and lunging at my opponent.

I knew my physical condition; being able to stand and walk was practically my
limit . Although my opponent appeared to have an injured arm, he clearly still possessed fighting ability. Most importantly,
the black-suited men surrounding this so-called Rinpoche were undoubtedly skilled bodyguards. Even in
a normal fight, I might not have much of an advantage, let alone in my current state.
Therefore, I could only try to overwhelm him with my presence before attacking, taking advantage of his
momentary . Thus, I no longer hesitated to use the scythe…

The moment I burst from the darkness, the man in the black suit finally saw me clearly. He froze for a moment,
then let out a terrified scream that even I couldn't believe… His reaction startled me;
I gasped, and my movements slowed.

Just as I inwardly cursed, worried he might use the opportunity to attack me, the man in the black
suit suddenly turned and, abandoning the lantern on the steps
, ran frantically towards the other side of the waterway, shouting incoherently,

"Ghost… evil… demon… it's a demon… help… someone… it's a monster
…"

I stared dumbfounded at his reaction, utterly bewildered. This brief pause
allowed me to feel my energy and strength returning somewhat. Without
thinking, I picked up the lantern the man in the black suit had thrown down, panting, and then stumbled
after him again.

As I ran, I tried to regulate my breathing. Once my breathing returned to normal,
a surge of intense heat erupted from my chest and lower abdomen, rapidly spreading throughout my
body . Along with the heat, I also felt a surge of power. For a moment, I experienced
a feeling of being reborn from the ashes…

I ran faster and faster, focused solely on catching up with the man in the black suit ahead, completely unaware that
the heat was causing my entire body, including my skin, to turn a fiery red…
My clothes, without my conscious awareness,
began to tear and disintegrate under the steam emanating from my skin…

The black-suited man's screams clearly attracted the attention of the others deep within the waterway. Suddenly,
the area where the fierce fighting had been taking place fell silent. For

a moment, only the black-suited man's shouts echoed throughout the waterway.

After running for over a hundred meters, illuminated by the lantern light, several women in black suits and white appeared
before me. Without hesitation, I raised my sickle, intending to hack and slash at them as soon as I got close. But
when these guys saw me, they reacted almost exactly like the guy in the black suit! First,
they were stunned, then their faces lit up with terror and extreme fear, and then they all turned
and ran .

"W-what's going on?"

I couldn't help but feel confused. It made sense that the guy in the black suit was a coward; seeing my
desperate act, he turned and ran in fear. But now there were several of them,
and they had a clear numerical advantage. It didn't make sense that they were afraid of my sickle, because several of them
were carrying steel pipes and wooden sticks. If it came to a fight, I should be the one at a disadvantage, right?

I blinked, confused.

But I didn't bother to think about it too much. It was best if they didn't dare to stop me, so I could rush to reinforce Yan
Jing and Li Jing's group.

Following the group, they rounded another bend, and suddenly the light came on. Amidst numerous lanterns and hand lanterns...
Under the electric light, the scene inside the sewers was clearly revealed before me.

Seeing it, I couldn't help but feel a surge of adrenaline, and let out a roar almost like a wild beast!

It was a rather spacious crossroads of waterways. Xiao Li Jing, relying on the intimidating power of his bow and arrows,
stood with Xu Yue against the edge of a collapsed section,
confronting a group of about a dozen people some distance away.

In the center of the waterway, Yan Jing, surrounded by several men in black suits, was swaying and barely
managing to defend herself with one hand. Her right hand hung limply at her right side… clearly injured and unable to move. Fortunately,
she was skilled; even with only one hand, the men in black suits hadn't subdued her.

For me, nothing in the world is more important than the safety of my loved ones! In my
subconscious , no matter who it is, if they dare to harm my family, I will make them pay the price! Even if they
are a national leader, or even Buddha or God, it's the same!

For this reason, after confirming that Yan Jing was injured, I roared and charged straight
towards where Yan Jing was surrounded, scythe in hand.

My sudden appearance and the roar that followed plunged the previously noisy and chaotic scene into a brief
silence . Only after realizing my actions did the men in black suits and the women in white react.

Many people scattered in terror upon seeing me.

My mind was solely focused on saving Yan Jing; I didn't think much about the specific reasons, or perhaps my
"resurrection" was beyond their expectations, hence their fear.

Several men in black suits who were attacking and beating Yan Jing, seeing me charging towards them, also panicked and chose to dodge, just like the
others . One of those who didn't dodge pulled open his suit jacket and
pulled out a pistol.

At that moment, I recognized him—it was the same man who had shot at me earlier.

He had a gun, yet he attacked Yan Jing bare-handed, presumably intending to capture her alive, which was why he had abandoned using
weapons. But now that he was dealing with me, he didn't hesitate to pull out his pistol again, his face filled with horror and
tension . After pointing the gun at me, he immediately pulled the trigger…

In my rage, I had long lost basic rationality. Even seeing the gun, I didn't stop
moving, but continued in a straight line, lunging towards him.

A loud bang followed, and the muzzle flashed from the black barrel. Almost
simultaneously felt a powerful impact on my front…

I knew the bullet had hit me. But I didn't even think about it… While my body could still move
, only one thought occupied my mind: "Save Yan Jing, then kill this son of a bitch in the black
suit…"

After firing the first bullet, the man in the black suit immediately pulled the trigger again, firing all the bullets in the pistol at
once .

As I fired, the black-suited man's initial terror transformed into a desperate, ferocious rage! He frantically
pulled the trigger , screaming,

"...I'll kill you! I'll kill you! I'll kill you, you monster! I'll kill you, you evil..."

Before the final "demon" could even leave his lips, I was already in front of him, the blade of my scythe slicing from his left neck
down to his lower right...

As I swung the blade, I realized that my scythe and my arm were engulfed in a ring of
raging flames.

The black-suited man's desperate screams echoed through the empty ancient sewers...

I stood there, stunned, as if I'd lost my soul.

"...I...I...What happened to me?"

"I killed someone...I killed a person! A living person..."

I trembled as I raised my hands to my eyes.

A pair of arms that were once so familiar, now seemed utterly foreign to me.
Because these arms were encircled by a layer of burning red flames!

The color of the flames was different from the golden, slightly bluish protective flames on my classmate's body.
The flames swirling around my arms were crimson, a vivid red like human blood,
almost black from dried blood.

The man in the black suit lying on the ground was less "chopped" to death by my sickle and more burned alive
. When the blade of my sickle pierced his body, his entire body trembled and
convulsed violently before my eyes!

A farm sickle is far less sharp than a military knife, so once the blade reached his shoulder and neck, it
couldn't cut any further. I instinctively pulled the blade out.

After I pulled it out, the man in the black suit opened his mouth and nose in disbelief, his eyes
bulging in extreme shock… Then, thick black smoke billowed from his exposed orifices, followed by
a series of soft popping sounds from inside his body. With these soft popping sounds, the man in the black
suit collapsed to the ground.

Just like when Cao Zixuan was demonized, the body of the man in the black suit collapsed without warning,
bulging up in all directions. The bulges burst open, spewing forth scorching crimson flames…

After the intense burning and smoke subsided, perhaps because the deceased was human, and not
a monster like Cao Zixuan, the man in the black suit didn't turn to ash like Cao Zixuan. Instead,
he appeared before me as a charred, desiccated corpse.

But this was, in some ways, even more terrifying than the scene with Cao Zixuan. After witnessing
everything previously extremely violent state of mind was plunged into utter terror.

My reason told me that all of this must have been caused by the Crimson Lotus ability I possessed.

But after witnessing Crimson Lotus's terrifying power and its consequences once again, I was plunged from fear into
deep confusion...

"Is this a power that a person can possess? How could a person have such power?"

"With this power, can I still be considered human?"

"Along the way... after they saw me, what did they call me... monster?... demon?
... devil?"

Looking at my hands that were still burning, I unconsciously took a few steps back.

Just then, I heard a Buddhist chant.

"Amitabha... The sea of suffering is boundless... Turn back and you will find the shore!"

The black suit, chopped and burned to a crisp, was a horrifying and shocking sight for everyone who witnessed it
. So much so that after the black suit's death, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence.

Because of the silence, the chant sounded exceptionally clear, even...
solemn!

Following the sound, I turned my head.

Daye. Rinpoche appeared in my field of vision.

The woman, as before, was floating cross-legged in mid-air. Seeing my dazed and confused expression, she
slowly floated towards me, rapidly chanting some kind of scripture or mantra that I couldn't understand.

But when she was only two or three meters away from me, a thick plume of white steam suddenly erupted from beneath her crossed legs
, and as the steam surged, her body plummeted downwards. Fortunately, she reacted
quickly, spreading her legs before crashing to the ground and standing somewhat awkwardly in front of me.

Seeing this, I suddenly realized
the secret behind her levitation.

She couldn't fly at all; her levitation was due to
a transparent water curtain beneath her body, barely noticeable unless carefully observed! She sat cross-legged
on this curved water curtain, appearing to float from a distance.

Although I wasn't sure of my exact situation, the rings
of flames around my hands indicated that my body and the area around me were under intense heat. The woman, unaware
of this, rashly tried to approach me, but before even making contact, the water curtain supporting her
was evaporated by the heat emanating from me.

Despite her disheveled appearance and the discovery of her levitation secret, I felt no
suspicion towards her attempt to approach.

The reason is simple: the death of a living person has plunged me into a
state of extreme pain and remorse, and Daye Rinpoche's earlier utterance of "Amitabha" instantly touched
the most vulnerable part of my heart.

Killing… is an incredibly painful thing for me!

Because until just now, I had never truly killed a living person. And this charred corpse lying
on the ground was the first human being I had ever truly killed since birth.

In an instant, fear, panic, confusion, and all sorts of other emotions rushed in. When that "Amitabha"
appeared , it was like a ray of light, instantly dispelling these overwhelming negative feelings…
Looking at Daye Rinpoche, who, though somewhat disheveled, quickly composed herself before me, hands clasped in prayer, expression solemn,
I suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to worship her.

At that moment, this woman seemed to have truly become an omniscient and omnipotent benevolent
Buddha . Her already beautiful face now radiated a kind of holy halo, and her graceful figure displayed an atmosphere of infinite gentleness. It seemed that only by worshipping her could I fully express my pain and regret
to the whole world and at the same time gain spiritual peace. 　　My gaze was blank, and I swayed my body, my knees bending down... 　　"Big brother! What are you doing?" 　　"Be careful... don't fall for her illusion!" 　　Just as I was about to kneel down in worship, Yan Jing's shouts and Li Jing's warnings rang in my ears at the same time . At the same time as Li Jing's warning, the taut arrow was released. Previously, he had used this ready- to-go arrow to force several men in black suits to stay away, but realizing that I was about to fall into Daye Rinpoche's hands, he did not hesitate any longer and finally launched the arrow. 　　As the arrow flew, it repeatedly emitted blindingly bright light, shrouding the entire area in alternating light and shadow. When the light dimmed, Daye Rinpoche's appearance was dignified elegant, but in the blinding light, her eyes revealed a terrifying cruelty and naked greed… 　　The arrow pierced between Daye Rinpoche and me. With the rapid shifting of light and shadow, my pupils uncontrollably burst forth with golden light. As the golden light intersected , Daye Rinpoche and I almost simultaneously screamed, our bodies instinctively recoiling… 　　In that instant, I saw countless frozen images, like scattered photographs, in Daye Rinpoche's eyes. In the scene, I saw terrified eyes, screaming faces, struggling and waving arms, bloodied limbs, cold, withered bones and remains, and crimson flames dancing in the sky… 　　I staggered, stopping my backward fall, a strong urge to vomit rising in my chest from extreme suffocation. And I dry-heaved in full view of everyone. 　　Having encountered so many strange and bizarre people, and having experienced forbidden and wondrous places like Phoenix Mountain Prison and Xia Yu City, I considered myself quite worldly. But what I saw through Daye Rinpoche's eyes completely shattered my psychological limits, to the point that I couldn't control my actions at all. 　　Daye Rinpoche, after taking several steps back, also stopped. After a few moments of heavy breathing , he raised his head again. His once charming and beautiful face was now contorted with pain, almost to the point of being grotesque. 　　"...Red Lotus! You're actually Red Lotus!" 　　From the moment I met her until now, this woman had always given off an air of calm . But now, for the first time, her panting words betrayed a hint of panic. 　　Seeing that I didn't respond, she remained standing there, clutching her stomach and retching. 　　A glint flashed in her eyes. She sharply ordered the women in black suits and white who had scattered around her , 　　"What are you all standing there for? Kill everyone here!" 　　At this moment, this woman had clearly shed all her pretense of being a "high monk, living Buddha," completely revealing her true nature.

"A ruthless nature.

Daye!" Rinpoche shouted, but
few of the men in black suits and white-clad women scattered around actually moved. Aside from a few who
cautiously most pressed themselves against the wall at the edge of the sewer,
hesitant to advance.

Even those who moved towards Li Jing and Xu Yue were actually hoping to pick on the weaker targets.
Yan Jing was standing not far from me; attacking her would likely result in my interception, and Yan Jing
was extremely skilled, able to withstand attacks from several men in black suits even when injured. She seemed like a tough nut to crack
…

Li Jing and Xu Yue, on the other hand, were clearly much weaker, so the group unanimously decided to target
Daye Rinpoche's instructions on those two.

After vomiting several times without anything coming out, I finally managed to suppress the indescribable
nausea. Raising his head, tilting it to the side, he roared, stopping the group's attempts.

"Who dares to move? Move again... don't blame me for being ruthless!"

With the echo of my shout, the men who wanted to attack Li Jing and Xu Yue stopped
, their expressions stiff and unnatural.

Upon noticing this, Daye Rinpoche first showed an incredulous expression, then her whole body
trembled slightly with anger. She probably hadn't expected her subordinates to be so
cowardly and timid, completely terrified after witnessing Honglian's power.

"Good... very good... as expected of Honglian! Just one move, and she's already subdued all these
cowards ... good... excellent!" Daye trembled as she looked at the surrounding crowd, a strange smile

appearing on her face despite her extreme anger . 　　Seeing Daye's expression, the many women in black suits and white clothes all showed expressions of fear. Some looked around , eager to try, but when they noticed no one was leading, they lowered their heads and became cowards. 　　I saw these details, but didn't intend to pay them any attention. I just needed them to stop besieging Yan Jing and the other two. And I, after using the power of the Crimson Lotus to kill one person, really didn't want to use this terrifying power to destroy anyone's life again . 　　I breathed heavily, tilted my head, raised my left hand and pointed at Daye opposite me, and said in a slightly trembling voice, 　　"You...you...you are definitely not a Buddhist disciple! I, I saw..." 　　"What did you see?" 　　Daye's eyes widened, and he arrogantly raised his chin, staring at me. 　　"...Hell! I saw that in your eyes, there is only hell!" 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Chapter 119 　　"Ha, ha, ha..." 　　Daye. Rinpoche threw his head back and laughed wildly without restraint. He even laughed so hard that he bent over backward, beating his chest and stamping his feet. It was as if he had heard the most ridiculous thing in the world. After laughing, she looked at me and twitched several times. 　　"Hell? Just because you saw hell in my eyes… you're saying I'm not a Buddhist disciple? Wahahaha…" 　　After saying this, the woman laughed for a long time before stopping what seemed to me to be near-madness. 　　Noticing that the woman's expression was returning to normal, my own composure calmed down. I said, "Do you think what I said is wrong?" 　　Facing my repeated question, the woman took a deep breath and said, "How much do you know about Buddhism?" 　　"I've read a few Buddhist scriptures…" 　　"Have you read the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Sutra?" 　　"Yes… because I've read it, I can connect what I saw in your eyes with hell!" I replied coldly. By this time, I had unconsciously become accustomed to this strange physical sensation . Therefore, my mind also returned to its usual calm state. 　　"I see... Then let me ask you! Seeing hell in my eyes proves I'm not a Buddhist disciple? What kind of logic is that?" 　　Daye's rhetorical question stumped me! I lowered my head slightly. 　　Seeing I didn't answer, Daye immediately followed up with her second question. 　　"Then what do you think a Buddhist disciple should be able to see?" 　　Faced with her persistent questioning, I didn't intend to remain silent forever, and immediately gave my answer to her second question. "Shouldn't it be all sentient beings in the mortal world and the Western Paradise?" 　　Daye was somewhat surprised by my immediate answer. After a slight hesitation, a mysterious before she suddenly posed her third question. 　　"Where do you think Buddha is?" 　　My eyes narrowed involuntarily, and I answered her again with a rhetorical question: " Isn't in the Western Paradise?" 　　"Wrong..." 　　Daye. Rinpoche's expression became serious. After immediately refuting my counter-question, he declared loudly: "If I don't go to hell, who will...? Countless gods and Buddhas, bodhisattvas of all ages, they are not in that so-called ! They are in hell! Buddha Tathagata is here, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is here... and Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva ... all the gods, all the Buddhas! At this moment... they are all in hell!" 　　Hearing this unheard-of statement from Daye Rinpoche, I could feel the muscles in my face twitching involuntarily. 　　"You mean, Buddha and bodhisattvas are not in the Western Pure Land? But are they all in hell? What are they doing in hell ? Are they saving souls and saving all sentient beings?" 　　Faced with my almost mocking new question, Daye Rinpoche's expression was calm and serene. 　　"You're right... Buddha is compassionate; as long as hell is not empty, he will endure the torment of hell for one day! Not only him, but all the other gods, Buddhas, and bodhisattvas are saving people in hell!" 　　"Not even a holiday?" I blinked. I noticed that when she spoke her last sentence, that fake, pretentious solemnity once again appeared on her face. Therefore, I continued without hesitation...

My tone shifted to a teasing one.

Daye shook her head slightly, seemingly realizing I was indeed flirting with her. But to my
surprise , she didn't lose her composure or become hysterical as before; instead, she maintained her
calm tone.

"What is hell? What is the Western Paradise?"

I blinked, not expecting her to pose another
question .

"Hell? It's probably similar to a prison in the secular world! Punishing criminals, cleansing their
sins , and then throwing them into the cycle of reincarnation to start over. The Western Paradise? A good place...
rewarding the good, allowing them to receive blessings for their good deeds. Similar to the Christian heaven!
Islam clearly describes what heaven looks like, saying there are many virgins to have sex with, you can eat whatever you want,
drink whatever you want..."

By the end, I didn't even know what I was saying anymore. And the reason was simple... during my questioning with
Daye, I felt a surge of desire within me. And I was absolutely
certain it was lust!

At that moment, I became agitated. I wanted to vent… and in my view, there were only two ways to vent.
One was to find someone and have a good fight, and the other was to pin a woman to the ground and fuck her hard!

The woman before me, Daye Rinpoche, was a true beauty. Although I had previously harbored extreme
hatred for her, when this nameless lust rose, that hatred unconsciously
transformed into desire. After all, I didn't care if she was a Buddhist disciple… she was a woman, that was the most important thing
… she was a woman… and I could have her! Therefore, when answering her question, I knew
I was talking nonsense. Either I would provoke her and fight her, or, to keep her from getting angry and say these flirtatious things,
it seemed to alleviate the rising desire within me to some extent.

To my surprise, when she heard my rambling, Daye's brow twitched
twice, but she didn't get angry. Instead, she stopped me.

"...So? If it were you, would you choose to go to heaven or hell?"

"Does anyone in this world willingly want to go to hell?" I was a little confused by her sudden
question .

Daye Rinpoche had initially tried to look into my eyes, but after realizing I was Honglian, she shifted
her gaze to my side.

"It seems you're just an ordinary mortal after all!"

"I've never considered myself anything extraordinary," I replied reflexively. But
then, I heard Daye Rinpoche mutter to herself.

"...I want to go to hell."

I stared wide-eyed at the woman before me in disbelief. I was pretty sure this woman wasn't
just mentally unstable, but her thinking was completely off.

"...Only in hell can I truly see the Buddha, and then worship him day and night,
listen to his teachings, and understand his thoughts and feelings!" Daye Rinpoche spoke, her face displaying
boundless longing and devotion. At that moment, I realized that what she said was no acting; I could even
feel the deep reverence for the Buddha welling up from the depths of her heart!

"Has this woman gone mad?" I stared blankly at Daye Rinpoche, who was now talking to herself.

"There is no Buddha in the Pure Land... If there is, it's only the Buddha of Guidance. He's meaningless to me... I won't get
anything . Because everything you imagine, I can get right here in this mortal world. I can get it
... Why should I pursue it? People only pursue what they can't have... But what I pursue is the Buddha
himself! I want to see him... I want to ask him... Please enlighten me, resolve my doubts! Reveal all
the truth to me! Those who call themselves Buddhist disciples have no attachment or longing for the Buddha... They only think
about going to the Western Pure Land to enjoy themselves! People with such thoughts... Can they really be followers of the Buddha?
They deserve to die... That's why I'm going to throw them all into hell first... so they can have a chance to truly accept
the Buddha's salvation. All of this is for their own good... What's there to go to in the Pure Land? The Buddha is in hell
... So hell is where Buddhist disciples should go... Go there and follow the Buddha! If I don't go to hell, who will
? That's what the Buddha told me..."

Daye. Rinpoche, head bowed, muttered incoherently. Finally, she abruptly raised her head,
glancing at me sideways. "...As for you, it seems you are destined to be my tribulation in the mortal realm. No...perhaps
an opportunity! You are the mortal endpoint of my quest for the Great Dao..."

As her voice faded, countless floating water droplets suddenly appeared around her.
Before I could react, these droplets shot towards me...

"Watch out!"

Xu Yue's scream and Li Jing's exclamation echoed from afar!

Some of the droplets grazed past me, striking the sewer
wall , instantly creating countless holes in the bricks—the impact was almost equivalent to
bullets.

The droplets that hit me directly were instantly vaporized by the intense heat emanating from my body,
turning into a cloud of steam.

Yan Jing, nearby, seemed to have anticipated this outcome, so she didn't
shout .

I lowered my head silently, bent down, and picked up a small piece
of metal . The metal melted rapidly between my fingers, eventually vaporizing into a puff of smoke.

This piece of metal had been a bullet not long ago, fired from the black-suited man's gun, melting into liquid upon impact with my body
, and then solidifying again after hitting the ground. Now, it had vanished completely in my hand.

At that moment, I understood why I hadn't died after being shot in the forehead.

...It was the Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire. The instant the bullet pierced my forehead skin and even part of my skull, the Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire that
suddenly dissolved and evaporated the bullet. For this reason, the bullet ultimately
didn't penetrate my brain; it merely stunned me.

I rubbed my fingers together, blew on the spot where I had been holding the metal block, and
looked up at where Daye was. I truly hadn't expected this woman to attack me so decisively. During our earlier
exchange, I had even considered negotiating a settlement, a compromise, a peaceful departure,
and settling scores later.

But her attack clearly revealed her true intentions… a fight to the death,
a battle of wits!

Realizing this, I clenched my left fist and held the scythe horizontally to my chest with my right.

After Daye Rinpoche's water attack, the crimson karmic fire that had only been coiled around my hands
had completely spread throughout my body. I didn't feel much discomfort, but
the intense heat emanating from my body spread outwards in waves. The numerous women in black suits and white, even
Li Jing and Xu Yue, could clearly feel the scorching heat.

In an instant, the people at the scene forgot their friend-or-foe relationship and fled in droves to the
edge . Even Yan Jing had large beads of sweat on her forehead.

Realizing that even she couldn't withstand the intense heat emanating from me, she abruptly ripped off her right sleeve with her left hand,
revealing a withered, almost mummified right arm. She yelled at me,

"Brother, watch out for this woman! This woman's ability to play in the water is more terrifying than you can imagine..."

My pupils dilated when I saw the state of Yan Jing's right hand.
Where had I seen Yan Jing's right hand before? Then, I suddenly remembered
the picture ...

"You little slut... you're really talkative!"

Daye. Rinpoche seemed to find it inconvenient to fight me while wearing a large Tibetan robe, so he casually untied
his outer robe and tossed it aside, revealing the tight-fitting clothes underneath. At the same time,
he spoke in a tone that was both provocative and threatening.

"Water is everywhere... in the sky, on the ground, and even in the air, there
are particles invisible to the naked eye... even humans are 70% water! And my ability is called Weak Water!
I can manipulate and control all the water in this world... just like her, I'll cripple one of your hands first!"

She had barely finished speaking when she suddenly stretched out her right hand, fingers spread, and made a grabbing motion before
violently pulling it back.

Before my eyes, countless strands of water seemed to be drawn out from the tightly closed pores of my right arm by
some force,
instantly vaporized by my own Crimson Lotus Flame. My arm, constantly emitting white steam, withered
away . As my arm shriveled, I also lost all feeling and control over my right hand, which hung limply
at my chest.

I was taken aback. Just as I was wondering how to deal with this ability, the crimson flames that
had been coiling evaporated the water droplets and quickly seeped
into my skin from the outside in…

As the crimson flames filled the area, my once withered right hand swelled up again from my wrist to my shoulder,
returning to its previous normal state. Only the skin color turned completely crimson, and the intense heat
even distorted the image around my arm. As my arm regained its shape, I felt
control and mastery over my right hand again, and thus I raised my arm once more, pointing the tip of the scythe at Daye.
Rinpoche !

If she hadn't witnessed it with her own eyes… Daye. Rinpoche wouldn't have believed what she was seeing.
The horizontal muscles on her face, which hadn't been very noticeable before, trembled violently uncontrollably.

After taking a deep breath, the woman stopped the twitching of her facial muscles, and her face tightened.

Yan Jing, having also witnessed the astonishing changes in my body, didn't say anything, but turned and quickly
ran towards the location of Li Jing and Xu Yue. At this moment, she probably realized that Daye and I were there. This confrontation between Rinpoches
was beyond her control.

Daye. Rinpoche had met my gaze once before, though it hadn't triggered the internal combustion and
explosion . But now, she clearly didn't dare look me in the eye again. She could only
observe my movements with flickering eyes, avoiding direct eye contact. Because of the
distance between us, if I were to attack, I would inevitably move my feet first, so her gaze immediately focused on my
lower body.

As she looked, a strange expression appeared on her face!

I was intently observing her every move, and when I realized her expression was off, I felt
a little surprised. I then glanced down at my lower body, and after seeing it, I almost wanted to
disappear into the ground…

The reason was simple.

Only then did I realize that all my clothes, including my underwear, had been completely burned away
by . In other words…
I've been completely naked since just now, I don't know when it started.

Daye. Rinpoche sees me as an opponent and an enemy, and seems single-mindedly focused on killing me. Whether I
'm clothed or naked, she doesn't care, of course.

But the key point is, that girl Yan Jing must have noticed my naked state, but she didn't
even say a word to remind me.

In this situation, being naked isn't really that important to me. Although there are many women around,
I know what kind of women they are. There are probably more naked men than I
've seen in the military bathhouse. But the key point is, I actually discovered that my penis, even in this
situation , is standing tall between my legs, proudly facing Daye. Rinpoche is giving me a "staring tribute."

What is this? For a moment, an indescribable sense of shame welled up in my heart. Almost
instinctively, I reached out my left hand to cover that area, while simultaneously clamping my legs together...

but unexpectedly, Daye Rinpoche leaped up at that moment,
landing in front of me before I could react. As he landed, his right foot shot out and slammed into my left cheek.

Her kick sent me reeling, my body tumbling through the air before crashing
heavily to the ground.

Using my past fighting experience, I rolled several times to the side after landing before
bracing myself with my left hand to my feet, inwardly cursing my opponent's despicable sneak attack.

But when I saw Daye's current state, I was stunned.

This woman had caught me off guard and struck. Her body seemed unharmed, but
the instantaneous physical contact had ignited her clothing. The Crimson Flame almost instantly vaporized her
right , exposing her entire smooth, white right leg from the thigh down. 　　However, she seemed completely unconcerned, still watching my movements with a serious expression. Confirming this, I gritted my teeth… Clearly, she didn't care at all about the possibility of her entire outfit being burned
away by my Crimson Flame during 　　our fight . Her only thought was how to defeat me. Since that was the case, I cast aside the ordinary sense of shame about being naked and focused entirely on dealing with the woman before me. 　　Clearly, under some unknown condition, the Crimson Lotus power within me had manifested and erupted on a large scale. But how to utilize this power, how to activate the various powerful techniques of the Crimson Lotus legend—I had absolutely no idea. 　　Moreover, at this moment, I couldn't calmly comprehend or understand how to use this power. Therefore, my counterattack against the woman before me was still the same as a normal hand-to-hand combat… I charged forward and slashed at her with my scythe! 　　Daye calmly observed my movements. The instant I charged towards her and swung my scythe horizontally, she bent her knees and lowered her head, easily avoiding the scythe's blade. As she turned backward, her upper body lowered, and her fair, smooth right leg extended, drawing a beautiful arc on the ground, her heel striking my right ankle heavily in the opposite direction. With a textbook , textbook-perfect sweeping kick, she knocked me to the ground once more. 　　I rolled several times on the ground, creating distance before getting to my feet. 　　The attack failed… but Daye's clothes were once again partially burned away by the crimson flames emanating from my body. This time, it wasn't just her right thigh that was exposed; the left side of her upper body clothing, having come into close , had also been largely destroyed by the intense heat. Her snow-white left shoulder, her entire left arm, and the half of her breast, trembling slightly above her chest, were now exposed to my view. 　　Daye expressionlessly reached out and straightened the few remaining strips of unburnt fabric, then tied a knot under her armpit, tightening the remaining part of her upper garment and concealing the still-trembling half of her breast . She then spoke calmly, "I've seen a few people who play with fire! But... you're the most despicable one I've ever seen! Unable to hit me, you burned my clothes!" 　　Faced with her sudden accusation, I instinctively tried to defend myself. 　　"It's not my fault... it burns wherever it touches... I can't control it..." 　　Before I could finish the last word, Daye Rinpoche suddenly attacked again, rushing towards me with lightning speed, her right knee slamming heavily into my chin. I was still talking when she attacked. My teeth bit my tongue as I opened and closed them. Not only that, my head was hit again, and the swirling stars appeared before my eyes once more... 　　I instinctively retreated. As I retreated, Daye Rinpoche, supporting herself on one leg, skillfully swung her right leg, rapidly kicking and punching me repeatedly. 　　Only then did I realize that this woman's skills far exceeded my expectations. The legwork she unleashed at this moment was something even my best friend Liu Tao would likely struggle to replicate in actual combat. 　　However, after enduring her fluid and powerful leg attacks, I understood why this woman dared to attack me directly with her body without being burned by the Crimson Lotus Flame. Each strike instantly formed a thin film of water on the surface of my body. Before this film evaporated due to the Crimson Lotus's heat burned her, her attack point was already outside the Crimson Lotus's burning range. 　　Furthermore, as I retreated, I noticed something else. The water flowing through the ancient sewer was becoming increasingly scarce. Within the Crimson Lotus Eye's vision, I could see the water flowing on the ground transform into tiny droplets that rose into the air and eventually gathered around Daye's body. 　　Clearly, the water she used to insulate my body from the Crimson Lotus's intense heat was this very water that had been flowing continuously . 　　After retreating more than ten steps, I finally managed to create some distance between myself and the woman. After delivering a series of heavy blows, she stopped her pursuit and cautiously observed my every move, searching for an opportunity to attack again. 　　"You...you're so despicable!" 　　Don't let Daye Rinpoche's appearance fool you; the strength of her legs was completely unexpected. The continuous blows caused me excruciating pain. 　　Therefore, after managing to catch my breath, I rubbed my injured areas with my left hand, spat out a mouthful of blood-stained saliva, and began to hurl insults at her. 　　Upon hearing my curses, Daye actually gave me a mocking smile. At the same time, I retorted, "Despicable? I merely caught you off guard. Compared to you, Red Lotus, you're probably far more despicable and shameless you?" 　　"What did you say? Despicable and shameless? I'll fuck your grandma... Dare to fight me fair and square, one-on-one! Stop playing these sneak attack tricks!" 　　This time, I'd learned my lesson. While cursing, I was extra careful to observe the woman's every move . 　　"Hahahaha..." 　　After laughing, Daye narrowed her eyes and said, "A fair and square one-on-one fight? You have the nerve to say that ? When have you Red Lotuses ever been fair and square? Relying on yourselves to believe that even if you die, you can take your opponent down with you."

"Yu Jin's shameless skills, his actions are always domineering and tyrannical! He only does things like bullying men and women. You want to fight me
fair and square one-on-one... you'd better put away your Crimson Lotus Flame! With your skills... I could easily take on three of you
!"

Hearing Daye's words, I was speechless... because I act according to my conscience!

Having had more contact with Wang Lie and his group, I naturally learned about
the legends and deeds of the Crimson Lotus figures from them. Although I didn't want to admit it, judging from the surviving
stories, the historical Crimson Lotus figures didn't have very good reputations.

It was similar to what Daye said. Because Crimson Lotus figures possessed the ability to turn on their opponents upon death... in their
interactions with other demon hunters of the same era, they always seemed somewhat domineering. Coupled with their physiological needs, the past Crimson Lotus figures
also engaged in acts such as using their skills and wealth to steal love and abduct innocent women.

And Daye... Rinpoche had clearly heard of the deeds of the Red Lotus in history, and now she lashed out at me.
I didn't know how to defend myself.

We faced each other in silence for a moment. I spoke, "
I can't put away the Red Lotus flames! Because I don't even know how I can get rid of them...
"

Rinpoche blinked, a look of surprise on her face. But then she
chuckled.

"I see... so you haven't truly mastered the power of the Red Lotus yet?"

After I honestly nodded in acknowledgment, a strange light flashed in the woman's eyes.
She continued, "That's alright... I'll help you get rid of these Red Lotus flames!"

Hearing this, I was stunned.

"If you die... the Red Lotus flames will naturally disappear!" Rinpoche said coldly.

"You want to kill me? You know what the consequences will be if you kill me!" I
was surprised by the woman's arrogance and couldn't help but remind her that I was Honglian... Killing me would incur the "Honglian backlash
. "

The woman laughed loudly again.

"Didn't you hear what I said before? You are my tribulation, and also my opportunity! Killing you will allow me
to see I've wanted to go to hell for a long time... Now that you've appeared, I can not only immediately realize my
dream, but also drag a Honglian down to hell with me. Do you know how excited I am?"

Daye. Rinpoche's eyes shone brightly, and taking advantage of my horrified expression, he rushed in front of me again.
