I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 467 - 429 Accountability

"No, I cannot die yet."

The monk suddenly spoke, leaving those present with hidden thoughts momentarily stunned.

Someone mocked the monk, saying, "After all your talk, although you preach compassion, you still fear death. It seems you have no intention of repaying the lives of these many people."

The monk explained, "It’s not that I fear death and refuse to repay lives. It’s truly because I have an important task at hand. Without completing it, even more lives may be lost."

Everyone had been curious about the monk’s origins for a while, and Elder Mei, who had followed, asked the monk, "Where are you from, Master? What sect do you belong to, and what brings you to Beiyed County this time?"

The monk replied, "I am a monk from Little Leiyin Temple, on the command of my master’s uncle, here to retrieve the Immortal Sword."

Everyone was taken aback; just this morning, they were discussing how to capture Shang Yu, and now a monk appeared.

"Little Leiyin Temple, hasn’t Little Leiyin Temple disappeared long ago?"

Someone questioned the monk, only to hear him explain, "Little Leiyin Temple had left Central State first; though it’s not in this world anymore, it remains connected to it."

Upon hearing that it was a visitor from the ancient immortal gate of the Daqi Dynasty, everyone got excited.

"Master, are you saying we can reach another world through Little Leiyin Temple?"

During the Daqi Dynasty, this world was already in the End of Dharma Era.

Even though spiritual energy later revived, this place is an abandoned land of the Upper Realm, completely without prospects.

If it weren’t for that, why didn’t the people who left Central State in the past come back?

No one knew if the moon in another world would be rounder than here or if the air would be fresher, but all had the desire to leave here and seek the ancient immortal gate.

A portion of people changed their previous attitude of scheming for the monk’s treasures and warmly approached, saying, "Master, please rise. Let’s find a tavern to talk."

"Master is a monk, how could he go to a tavern with you?"

Another person grabbed the monk’s other hand and said, "I live nearby, Master. Please come to my place as a guest?"

"Enough, someone just died, and instead of thinking about dealing with the aftermath, what are you arguing over here?"

The Sword Sect elder scolded them, and meanwhile, the monk also realized and sadly said again, "I am guilty. I came on my sect’s command to exterminate demons but ended up causing a massacre first."

The Sword Sect elder said, "Master, don’t grieve. The deaths in Beiyed County are all due to Fu Tianchou alone; he’s the one who opened the case and released the creatures inside."

The monk wiped his tears and defended himself, "What’s in the shrine is my family’s sixteenth ancestor, not a creature."

The Sword Sect elder’s embarrassment flashed briefly. He said, "The deaths of Beiyed County’s people have nothing to do with you, Master; by the way, where is Fu Tianchou?"

After his inquiry, a voice beside him spoke, "Fu Tianchou was the first to escape when revealing the cover and has not returned since."

Fu Tianchou ran quickly, probably knowing the matter had escalated. Even if the little monk spared him, other sects and his Xiangxi Sect wouldn’t let him go.

One must know that the elders of the Xiangxi Sect and Beast Taming Sect were killed by the beams emitted from the shrine.

He single-handedly exterminated hundreds of thousands of lives, which was nothing.

Critically, he annihilated the Nascent Soul-stage strong fighters of the Beast Taming Sect and his sect. No matter his talent or background, how could the sect possibly spare him?

"Fu Tianchou has escaped; we will deal with him later. For now, it’s important to first settle the refugees in Beiyed County; remember, after a great disaster, there will be a great plague."

"My Su family will handle this properly, please rest assured, elders and comrades."

Although Wang Yanyu initially hadn’t come to the southern suburbs, the commotion here was so great that she couldn’t help but notice it and come over.

Upon hearing the Sword Sect elder speak, she immediately stepped out to take responsibility!

"This whole affair is because of me, and the monk cannot stand idly by regarding the refugee settlement. However, since I was born until now, apart from chanting at Little Leiyin Temple, I have no experience handling affairs—"

The monk was halfway through his words when Wang Yanyu smiled kindly and said, "If Master doesn’t mind, please come to my Su family. If Master cannot handle secular matters, then we ask that Master organize a ritual for those deceased souls."

These words perfectly suited the monk’s intention. He clasped his hands and said, "Then I will trouble the Patron, and I will surely follow the Patron’s instructions."

The monk’s promise made those next to him envious.

Everyone wanted to get close to the monk but struggled to find a reason.

Wang Yanyu, with just a few sentences, not only gained the monk’s trust but also invited him to stay at the Su family.

From now on, with the monk residing, who would dare bully the Su family?

"This ritual not only needs to be held but should be grandly conducted!"

A voice rang out from Elder Xue who had returned.

Elder Xue respectfully clasped his hands to the monk, saying, "Master, are you aware that Beiyed County isn’t the only place affected? The beam emitted earlier from the shrine has already extended to the land of mass burial. From there to here, all have become barren.

Among them, countless more than hundreds of thousands have died. Including serpents, insects, birds, and beasts, even billions of creatures might not be enough."

Elder Xue’s words seemed almost like a reprimand. The Sword Sect elder frowned and said, "Brother Xue, what do you mean? Do you suggest that the blame for this disaster lies with the Master?"

"I am not here to criticize the Master or to absolve Fu Tianchou! What I mean is, if the Master is to perform a ritual, why can it only be limited to Beiyed County?

Are only the souls of Beiyed County worthy of the ceremony, while those who died elsewhere aren’t deserved of it? Shouldn’t creatures from other locations also attain ultimate bliss?"

The monk looked embarrassed and said, "This Patron is indeed right. I shall sincerely repent and vow to help every soul achieve ultimate bliss."

Elder Xue looked much more pleased and said, "North Wilderness is under the jurisdiction of our Wenda Sect. Master, if you have any difficulties, please come to our Wenda Sect."

His words revealed his intentions to everyone finally.

Basically, it was a competition with Wang Yanyu, aiming to bring the monk to the Wenda Sect.

Yet North Wilderness isn’t solely under the jurisdiction of the Wenda Sect.

Both Xiangxi Sect and Beast Taming Sect are immortal gates in North Wilderness too.

The misfortune was that the elders who came from Xiangxi Sect and Beast Taming Sect died. Now the one in charge in Beiyed County is none other than Elder Xue.

The Sword Sect elder laughed in anger, saying, "Brother Xue has planned well! Why must the Master go to your Wenda Sect for the ritual? Why can’t he go to Xiangxi Sect or Beast Taming Sect instead?"

Elder Xue frowned at the Sword Sect elder, saying, "Brother, you have no shame questioning that! Do you truly believe that all faults lie with Fu Tianchou? Does your sect’s Jian Shuang bear no responsibility?"

The crowd then turned their eyes to Jian Shuang. If it weren’t for him provoking Tian Lin and Mei Xianfu, if he hadn’t clashed with Fu Tianchou, how could the monk have gotten involved? Furthermore, how could the matter of the shrine’s wrath have arisen?

As everyone turned their gaze to Jian Shuang, the Sword Sect disciple who previously provoked Tian Lin and Mei Xianfu turned pale.

He knew that if Jian Shuang were held accountable, he certainly wouldn’t escape misfortune.
