So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 271

Chapter 271: I Found A….

“You are not among the top-ranking demon descendants, what do you know?” God of War glanced at him and said in a deep voice, “Half-Step Gokudo Path. Heh. There are many who stepped into Half-Step Gokudo Path, but there were only a few who reached Gokudo Path in the past century. Not only does Li Peiyun’s Half-Step Gokudo Path not hold water, if he even really stepped into Half-Step Gokudo Path, but he also is not necessarily the opponent of that man. At that time, how prosperous was our Ancient Gods Clan? With A-Class killers, there were eight S-Class and two Half-Step Gokudo Paths. This strength was enough to compete with the alliance of Taoism and Buddhism.”

The man with squinting eyes nodded. In the beginning, the Ancient Gods Clan was the largest religion in the demon descendant community. At its peak, there were even those who reached the Gokudo Path. A force labeled as a cult having had such huge strengths reflected the chaos in the demon descendant community at the beginning.

“At first, we were not satisfied with Baoze’s troops coming out to suppress our ancient deities. They only had one Half-Step Gokudo. They merely have an official background, why should they be the leader? Them wanting to destroy us was the same as trying to die. ”

“Baoze uprooted the influence of Ancient Gods Clan all over the country. Almost all the people in the cult were aggressive and wanted war. Even if they offended the officials, they would not hesitate to give Baoze a lesson. But what happened?” Deep fear surfaced on the God of War’s face. “S-levels couldn’t last ten moves against him. The two Half-Step Gokudo masters worked together, but he still killed them. What’s terrible was that he didn’t pay too heavy a price to defeat the two. If it wasn’t for two masters, I wouldn’t have been able to run away.”

“Since ancient times, how many amazing talents have been trapped in the stage of Half-Step Gokudo Path, and the Taoist Reverend had stagnated at that level for decades. Even within the same level there are differences. He is the best among the Half-Step Gokudo Path. He is the type who can really step into Gokudo Path.”

The man with squinting eyes frowned. “Just having Buddha Head around is enough trouble. Plus this, tsk, there is a long way to go.”

God of War looked at him and squinted. “You really want to shake up the demon descendant community?”

The man with squinting eyes said with a smile, “Me shaking up the demon descendant community is also a chance for your Ancient Gods Clan. I wanted to pull the Buddhism into the water and split the Taoist and Buddhist Alliance. I didn’t expect that the monks were so witty. However, we still have a chance. There will be internal strife in Taoism. The supervision of the Daoist and Buddhist Association on the demon descendant community will be reduced. Baoze alone can’t control it. We can expand our forces on a large scale in this period of time.”

God of War nodded. “We still have the Great Deities Palace. If we can benefit in the Palace, Baoze will no longer be a concern.”

The narrow eyed man said, “Taoist Reverend is doomed this time. Foreign Gokudo Path masters and Half-Step Gokudo Path masters can’t enter the Great Deities Palace. Buddha Head and Baoze will not allow that. So what we have to guard against is only the Unparalleled War Spirit. I had made contact with the Sakurai family in Japan before coming to this Forum Conference. They had invited me to join the Spirit Destruction alliance.”

God of War frowned. “what are you destroying?”

“Kill the Spirit,” the man replied. “The Unparalleled War Spirit!”

….

In a simple and quiet prayer room.

At the tea-table by the window, Buddha Head and a young man sat in front of each other, drinking tea, and the sun was shining on them. The room was full of an omnipresent Zen.

“Last time you had tea in my room, it was two years ago.” Buddha Head looked at the young man who lived in seclusion as he did, and said curiously, “Why did you come?”

“I came to you specially this time. I wanted to go up the mountain after the end of the Forum Conference. Then Lightning King called me and told me about what happened there. It almost scared me shitless so I came here quickly,” Qin Ze said helplessly, “Old monk, I didn’t mean to comment about you. It’s such a big thing yet you can still sit around and drink tea.”

Buddha Head glanced at the Chinese Carp and said, “Me not interfering with the world was exactly what you want, wasn’t it? You felt I was too much of a bug and didn’t want me to appear. When you encounter trouble, you want me to fight again. It’s not so simple. ”

“I didn’t expect that Taoist Reverend was such a person.” Qin Ze took a sip of tea, and clicked his tongue.

“It was always so easy to succumb to evil.” Buddha Head sighed. “Taoist Reverend’s emotional baggage is hard to solve. His cultivation had stagnated, and today’s disaster may actually be what he needed to get over his past.”

“There are no excuses. To join the Japanese army, to betray one’s fellow martial peers, how ridiculous that even such a person can sit in the seat of Taoist Reverend. Seems like the Lightning King still does not have enough courage. When he meets with such things, he only thinks of delaying for me to deal with it.” Qin Ze said, “If I was in his position, I would blow apart his head with one punch.”

“Then, you go.” Buddha Head looked at him through the corner of his eyes. Instead of being just a keyboard warrior here.

“Isn’t there someone else doing it already? His name was Li Peiyun, right? There is something about him. He has good talent, but his heart is both good and evil. He is not suitable to be an executioner,” Qin Ze stated. “In the past two years, I have retreated behind the scenes. As a spectator, I have seen many demon descendants. After all these while, do you know what my greatest thought is?”

Considering Qin Ze’s character, Buddha Head thought about it and guessed, “Is it that everyone around is trash?”

Before the establishment of the demon descendant department in Baoze, but after this young man just made a name for him in the demon descendant community, he once took his sister, Hu Meizi to Mount Emei for a tour. He challenged the Lianghua Temple since it happened to be on the way. He rubbed the Buddhist Head’s disciple Jie Se on the ground and proclaimed loudly, “I’m not targeting anyone. I just want to say that all of you here are trash.”

Then he was pressed on the ground by the Buddha Head and rubbed to let him know what was called Boundless Dharma.

Qin Ze was speechless.

“Everyone had been young and frivolous. It’s all in the past. Don’t mention it again.” He continued, “My answer was chaos, disobedience, and contempt for ordinary people. Of course, this is a common ill of demon descendants all over the world. Over the years, I have traveled all over the world, and the most unsettling ones are those from America. They will randomly rob a bank and make a fuss. Sometimes they would play Spider-man and crawl around. Other times they would run around with a shield claiming to be Captain America. But they were generally united when facing an overall situation.”

“In developed countries, the demon descendant community is generally stable, but our country is different. If Li Wuxiang’s incident happened abroad 20 years ago, there would be unrest, but it would never raise such a ruckus. Do you know why? Because they have a relatively stable order. Regardless of the rules set by the authorities, or the hidden regulations, they have a relatively sound order and people are willing to abide by it. Given the demon descendant community of our country, just the Great Deities Palace would be enough to cause riots.”

“At the end of the day, it is still a legacy problem of history.” Qin Ze sighed. “From the most chaotic decades in the late Qing Dynasty to Warlords, then the Republic of China, and finally new China. For more than a century, which part of China hadn’t been baptized by war? The order of the past has been broken down in successive years of war. The rules have been built over and over again, destroyed time and again. There had never been a stable, efficient and powerful organization to manage the demon descendant community. People are used to chaos, used to anarchy.”

Before the Qing Dynasty, including the Qing Dynasty, the demon descendant community was controlled by the court. Since the Eight-Nation alliance invaded, China had become a semi-colonial country, and the demon descendant community had set itself free.

“If Li Wuxiang’s incident happened in a foreign country, I mean specifically the developed countries, demon descendants will think about morality and the authorities on their heads. What about our country? There’s a treasure, grab it. Finders keepers. This was because no one is suppressing them from above.”

“Do you know why the Taoist and Buddhist Association are not very effective? Because you are bound to be swept away by this torrent, involuntarily, as you are part of this anarchy. But Baoze will not. Since its establishment, Baoze has been an official organization. You are the citizens and we are the soldiers.”

“But there were not enough troops on hand, which led to the division of power. The incident in Dongbei was my attempt and the first step of me trying to consolidate power. But I didn’t expect that Wu Sanjin would be so impatient. I thought he would endure for another few years until he has full confidence. After all, people like me can’t control the situation of the whole country. Such a pity that a good talent like him left.”

In recent years, he had been in a hurry to reach Gokudo Path. He didn’t take charge of the affairs of the Baoze group very much, much less the situation in Dongbei. Qin Ze was not very clear about Wu Sanjin’s plan there. He didn’t think the time was right and thought he could pay attention to it after the situation began to evolve. As a result, Wu Sanjin had no choice but to die while bringing down the Wu family, which caught him off guard.

Baoze was a huge machine. What he had to do was to guide the way. The specific way and the exact details were decided by the employees of all levels of Baoze.

When a faction reached a certain scale, the individual’s role will be infinitely compressed, even for those who had attained Gokudo Path. It was just like how Qin Ze thought that it was good to directly confront the Taoist Reverend. However, the Lightning King thought that since Taoist Reverend sat at the top of the demon descendant community, it was necessary for Taoists, Buddhists, and the Baoze group to discuss together.

Groups will always be bigger than individuals.

“Buddha Head, you are an eminent monk with great wisdom. The Buddhists preach great compassion. It’s not compassion to save one person, it’s compassion to save all the people. This truly places the focus on the overall situation. The nation is old, but the country is young.”

“This land needs a strict and unshakable order.”

You don’t have to tell me your outline… Buddha Head was quite stunned by Qin Ze’s opinions and kept commenting as such in his heart.

“Telling me so much about law and order, are you trying to persuade me to stick my head out for you to chop off?” Buddha Head said. “Or do you want to cooperate with me to suppress the demon descendant community? To let Lianghua Temple avoid the fate of being destroyed?”

“Suppression would still be necessary, but I will make sure to make it easy for you. Cooperation would be pointless. You guys are all monks, and don’t know anything about running a corporation,” Qin Ze stated. “By the way, I wrote a song about the temple. Do you want to hear it?”

Your topic jumped too fast… Buddha Head continued to comment in his heart.

“You seem to be very anxious. I don’t mind if you want to rebuild the order. In fact, the incident in Dongbei need not be such a bloodbath. Why didn’t you learn from Emperor Wu of Han’s order of gratitude?” Buddha Head sipped on his tea.

“This is exactly why I came to you…”

“You’re already Gokudo Path?”

“Huh?” Qin Ze was stunned and shook his head, but his tone was helpless. “It’s too difficult to take the final step. It’s really too difficult. I’ll tell you that I learned the Karma Sutra this year, and I ran to Tibet to learn the prayers of pleasure. Every day, I practice with my… wives and my cultivation improved. Even then, the realm of Gokudo Path is like a strong-willed virgin.”

“What do you mean?” Buddha Head was stunned by this metaphor.

“No matter what I do I can’t poke through that layer.”

Buddha Head was speechless. Bah, don’t discuss this sort of stuff with a monk like me.

Even Buddha Head could be confused. The young man in front of him felt strange. There were countless talented people Buddha Head had seen. His first impression of Qin Ze was mediocrity.

If this thought was revealed to the public, it was estimated that even he would be laughed at by the whole demon descendant community. Buddha Head thought that he was mediocre, and this was the intuition of an eminent monk, more accurate than that of a woman.

However, the reality was that this mediocre young man had become the biggest legend in the past 50 years.

Buddha Head could only understand this as how great wisdom could seem foolish, which was a higher level of talent than that of most geniuses.

Then the problem came again. Compared with his original experience, Buddha Head thought that Qin Ze should step into the Gokudo Path by now, but he was stuck.

“Because I was not born well,” Qin Ze said as if he saw the confusion of Buddha Head. “I’m not like you. I have strong African blood in my body. You know, my son… I mean my nephew was born not long ago. Ah… Forget it. I cry whenever I think about it.”

If the purity of demon genes in a typical demon descendants was 10%, then the purity of the demon gene in Qin Ze was 0.01%. His African blood was so strong that it could make people despair.

Buddha Head did not understand; his nephew awakening and he raising his cultivation had no link. Since Qin Ze didn’t want to talk, he didn’t ask.

“Why did you say you were looking for me?”

“I found a dragon at the mouth of the Yangtze River a while ago.”

“Dragon?!” Buddha Head’s mind was almost broken.
