Lin Yi's words were filled with doubt, causing Fa Ming's heart to be in a mess.
It seemed that this kid had already suspected that there was something fishy about the old Abbey Dean's death. If Fahui, that dog, was exposed, it would probably be detrimental to him!
He definitely couldn't let him speak!
But what could she do to stop him from speaking?
He was hiding behind Lin Yi now. Lin Yi's cultivation was high, so he couldn't ambush him even if he wanted to.
He had tried twice just now in an attempt to deal with Fahui and Lin Yi at the same time, but he had failed in the end.
If he attacked again, people would definitely guess what he was thinking, and the reputation of the Heavenly Chord Temple and him would be completely ruined.
"Fahui, speak."
Lin Yi interrogated him. Fahui nodded repeatedly and immediately exposed the matter.
"Some time ago, a ghost appeared in Three Rivers Village. After their investigation, it was a ghost. I originally planned to directly get rid of the specter, but Fa Ming didn't agree. Instead, he asked me to invite the old Abbey Dean over to exorcise the evil spirits and catch the ghosts together with the eighteen disciples of the temple.”
"In Three Rivers Village, the old temple head killed Spectral Soul very quickly, when I was preparing to return, I received news from Fa Ming that he left the old temple head there.”
The matter was explained very simply, but the general situation was already understood.
"What do you mean by staying there?”
Lin Yi's face was as dark as water. He was indeed angry.
"I, I…killed the old Abbey Dean, cremated his bones, and scattered his ashes. Faction Head Lin, believe me, this was all Fa Ming's idea. He wanted to kill the old Faction Head, it had nothing to do with me!”
Fahui knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.
Lin Yi clenched his fists. Not only did he kill her, but he also scattered her ashes?
Those bastards from the Chord Temple were indeed ruthless. They did not plan to leave any evidence behind.
Fortunately, he had snuck into Fa Ming's meditation room yesterday and found crucial evidence.
"Fa Ming, what else do you have to say?”
He turned around and faced the old bald monk. His eyes were filled with killing intent, and he didn't hide it at all.
The killing intent that seemed to be tangible made people tremble in fear. Even Fa Ming felt a chill down his spine.
The others were even more dumbfounded!
The Heavenly Chord Temple actually plotted to murder the old Abbey Dean of the Taiyi Daoist Temple?
It was unbelievable. What was the reason?
If the matter was true, then the Chord Temple would bear the crime of murder.
Even if the Buddhist Committee came forward, the people of the Chord Temple would still be blamed and would not end up well.
The dozens of devotees were hesitant now. They believed in Buddhism and the Tianyin Temple.
However, the Chord Temple had caused so many scandals in a row. Now, Master Fahui had directly exposed the fact that they had murdered the old Abbey Dean. How could they still believe the Chord Temple? How could he still believe in Buddhism?
As the largest temple in the Buddha Market, the Tianyin Temple had been popular for decades and was regarded as a typical example of Buddhism in the Buddha Market.
Now that they had caused such a thing, the image of Buddhism was destined to plummet.
Fa Ming noticed the hesitation of the pilgrims. Many of them had already wavered and no longer trusted the Heavenly Chord Temple or even Buddhism.
Other than that, there was also the provincial television station!
The provincial television station's live broadcast would definitely attract a lot of people, so a large number of netizens had already seen what had happened.
It was another huge blow to the reputation of Buddhism.
He knew that he couldn't continue like this. No matter what, denying it was the best choice.
Since they had no evidence, they could still quibble.
"Nonsense! The old Abbey Dean is only in the Xuan Zhao Realm, and I am already in the Xiantian Realm. If I want to return the old Abbey Dean, why do I need so many tricks? What good would it do me to harm the old Abbot?”
The indignant words, coupled with the words that seemed to be in line with the truth, made many people who originally believed in Fahui doubt again.
Yes, what good would it do to harm the old Abbey Dean?
The Heavenly Chord Temple and the Taiyi Daoist Temple did not interfere with each other. In addition, the Taiyi Daoist Temple did not have any devotees in the past, so Fa Ming really had no reason to harm people.
"Fahui, speak clearly!"
"Yes, yes. Fa Ming has always wanted to eradicate the Taiyi Daoist Temple. His goal is to occupy the entire Xiqiao Mountain. The reason why he went through so much trouble was mainly to not fall into the spotlight. If he killed the old Abbey Dean directly, there would definitely be an investigation in the future, and the matter would inevitably be exposed. It was the best choice to let the old Abbey Dean die in the battle with the Evil.”
"Really, really, you must tell me in detail. If there's even half a lie, I'll die a horrible death and be struck by lightning!”
Fearing that Lin Yi would not believe him, Fahui vowed.
With that said, people believed him again.
Because the reason Fahui gave could withstand scrutiny!
If they killed the old Abbey Dean directly, the Chord Temple would definitely be in trouble.
If the old Abbey Dean was killed by the Evils, he could only blame himself for being inferior.
"Fa Ming, it's time for you to give me an explanation!”
Lin Yi turned his head around with a murderous aura.
In this world, xiuzhe were basically not under the jurisdiction of the government. Some laws were difficult to enforce on them.
The officials basically acquiesced to the battles between xiuzhe.
Therefore, when the old Abbey Dean was harmed by the Chord Temple, the officials would not make a big fuss or arrest him.
However, some organizations were different, such as the Buddhist Committee.
To put it bluntly, the Buddhist Committee was formed by a few powerful Buddhist sects in order to better rule all Buddhist disciples.
There was a similar committee on the Taoist side, but they had very few opportunities to leave the country.
"You said that I killed the old Abbot, but where's the evidence?" Fa Ming sneered. Without evidence, it would be a slander! Amitabha. Buddha is merciful and helps the world. He doesn't fight with others, but he will never let others frame him!”
