Cui Yu pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice, "So, when he was taking disciples on behalf of his master, his martial arts were already very high?"

"More than that!" the Bloody Monk said in a deep voice, "When I just joined, I heard a monk over ninety years old say that when he was young, my senior brother's martial arts had already reached the level of today's Five Unmatches!"

Li Ruoyuan widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Ah? He... he... he was young? Over ninety years old? When he was young, what time was that?"

The Bloody Monk looked at Li Ruoyuan and calmly said, "That monk joined the order at a young age. When he said 'young,' he meant from the time he could remember."

Everyone gasped, and Li Ruoyuan opened his mouth wide, only whispering after a while, "That monk remembers things quite late, doesn't he?"

Everyone disregarded Li Ruoyuan, as they all clearly understood what the Bloody Monk's words implied. That monk had lived for over ninety years. Even if the Bloody Monk's senior brother was very young at that time, he would be over a hundred years old by now. And when the Bloody Monk had just joined, that monk was already over ninety. So, calculating this way, the senior brother must have lived at least one hundred and fifty or sixty years. More importantly, over a hundred years ago, the senior brother already had the strength of the Five Unmatches. What kind of power must he possess now? It was beyond their imagination!

"How can a person live for such a long time?" Cui Yu asked in a deep voice.

"The Buddhist Sect cultivates the Golden Body, and the Taoist Sect seeks longevity. Though immortality is impossible, the genuine paths of the Buddhist Sect and the Taoist Sect have the power to extend life. Throughout history, many long-lived individuals have hailed from the Taoist and Buddhist Sects, for this reason," the Bloody Monk said.

The crowd couldn't help but express their amazement. Previously, they didn't pay much attention to the Taoist and Buddhist Sects. Now hearing the Bloody Monk's words, they were suddenly filled with awe. The Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect indeed have extraordinary qualities.

"Why is immortality impossible?" Li Ruoyuan suddenly asked, "Has anyone tried it?"

The Bloody Monk glanced at him and said, "No one has tried, but didn't the Great Sage Guiguzi of the Taoist Sect ultimately return to dust and soil? Didn't the sage who founded the Buddhist Sect also eventually pass away?"

No one spoke further. Indeed, even with the defiant abilities of Guiguzi, he couldn't escape the passage of time. The Shakyamuni Buddha who founded the Buddhist Sect also ultimately achieved nirvana. How can all creations of heaven and earth have the rationale of immortality?

"Sect Leader, who was your master then?" Li Ruoyuan asked again.

"Damn, where do you get so many questions from?" Black Asura couldn't help but mumble.

"I'm just curious. Can't I speak?" Li Ruoyuan said unhappily.

Black Asura wanted to say more, but the Bloody Monk laughed and gestured for him not to argue further. Though the Bloody Monk was very brutal to outsiders, he was extremely patient with those inside the Sha Men, which was the main reason for the respect and loyalty he commanded from the Sha Men members.

"My master's dharma name is only one word..." the Bloody Monk looked at everyone and said, "Buddha!"

"What?" everyone exclaimed in unison, clearly not understanding.

"My master's dharma name is Buddha!" the Bloody Monk shrugged and said, "Of course, I don't believe it either, but that's what my senior brother told me. I've never even met my master, so I don't know if my senior brother is just fooling us!"

"A dharma name of Buddha?" Cui Yu was also confused, scratching his head and said, "Doesn't anyone else in the Xiaolin Temple know?"

"To be exact, even my senior brother is not a member of the Xiaolin Temple. He ended up there later, and even the people from Xiaolin Temple don't know his background." The Bloody Monk shrugged and said, "As for my master's dharma name, of course, the people at Xiaolin Temple don't know it. So I've always suspected whether my senior brother is just fooling us. Who has such a dharma name anyway."

Everyone exchanged glances. The background of the Bloody Monk's master and senior brother was indeed mysterious. They had never heard the Bloody Monk say this before, and now that he had revealed everything, it seemed he still held significant dread of his senior brother.

"Sect Leader, you just said that if we obtain those seven keys, the power of the Seven Kills Formation can trap even your senior brother," Cui Yu said in a deep voice. "In that case, dealing with the other Five Unmatches of the World would definitely be no problem!"

"Absolutely!" the Bloody Monk said, "Once the Seven Kills Formation is set up, even without the seven keys, you all can exchange a few moves with the Five Unmatches of the World. With these seven keys, those so-called Five Unmatches won't be your match at all. Plus, with me, the unrivaled killing god, huh, I want to see who dares to fight me for these seven keys. Right now, they don't dare to seize these seven keys, but once they're in my hands, it's impossible for them to take them away!"

On hearing this, everyone was extremely happy. They all hoped that the Bloody Monk would enter the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates. If that happens, Sha Men would become stronger than before, and they could live a carefree life.

As the people of Sha Men headed toward the Shen Family Manor, on the other side, the One-Eyed Man was also sneaking into the Shen Family Manor from the back entrance with Ye Qing.

The One-Eyed Man's strength was extremely formidable. Although he carried Ye Qing, his speed was ghostly. As he moved through the manor, he made no sound, and no one noticed him. He managed to reach the courtyard where Shen Qingyi lived without anyone detecting his presence.

After looking at Shen Qingyi's courtyard, the One-Eyed Man said in a low voice to Ye Qing, "Kid, happiness is not far off. Isn't it exciting for you?"

At this moment, Ye Qing was completely powerless to struggle and could only let the One-Eyed Man take him into the courtyard, though he was extremely anxious inside. He knew what the One-Eyed Man intended to do, which made him even more worried. The One-Eyed Man intended for him to do something inappropriate with Shen Qingyi. But how could he commit such an act? And if this happens, what would he do about Huangfu Ziyu?

However, being anxious was useless. In the hands of the One-Eyed Man, he had no power to resist at all.

Just as the One-Eyed Man entered the courtyard, he slightly frowned, suddenly leaping to the side to grab two people from behind the garden. These two were tightly bound and still unconscious, seemingly knocked out by someone.

"What's going on?" The One-Eyed Man frowned, scanning around, and suddenly headed straight for Shen Qingyi's room with Ye Qing in tow.

Opening the door, it was clear someone was wrapped in the bed's blankets. The One-Eyed Man cautiously walked over and pulled the quilt back, surprised to find that it was only Shen Qingyi's maid, Lili, lying on the bed.

Ye Qing's heart was still pounding madly. Seeing that Shen Qingyi wasn't there, he heaved a sigh of relief. With Shen Qingyi not there, this ordeal could be avoided. Ye Qing did not fear death, but he feared disgracing Shen Qingyi's reputation. How would he handle it then?

The One-Eyed Man frowned deeply; he hadn't expected Shen Qingyi not to be in the room. He didn't know what happened, making him momentarily stunned. However, he didn't dare linger in the Shen Family Manor for long since the place was swarming with experts. After a moment of silence, he dragged Ye Qing out of the Shen Family Manor and hid outside, observing from a distance.

"In the middle of the night, where could Shen Qingyi have run off to?" The One-Eyed Man muttered to himself, glancing at Ye Qing with a cold smile, "Kid, don't worry. Shen Qingyi will definitely come back, and I will definitely make sure you get close to her. Oh yeah, I told you, no need to look at me so gratefully, my name is Lei Feng."

If looks could kill, Ye Qing would have already killed the One-Eyed Man hundreds of times. He angrily gasped twice, struggling to shout angrily through his dislocated jaw, but it only came out in hoarse grunts, no louder than a whisper.

"What are you getting excited about? She's not back yet; why are you in such a hurry?" The One-Eyed Man grumbled a few words and suddenly seemed to remember something, pulling a bottle from his clothes with a grin, "Oh, I almost forgot something. With your demeanor, even if a naked girl were thrown next to you, you could restrain yourself. But I've come prepared; do you know what this is?"

Looking at the bottle, Ye Qing had a bad premonition. What good thing could he produce at a time like this?

"This stuff is for raising interest," the One-Eyed Man said with a smile, "I've heard you're immune to all poisons, and normal drugs won't affect you. But this bottle is different. It's Ning Qianshu's secret medicine: it has no poison, only increases your energy and desire. Simply put, even if you're immune to all poisons, it won't affect this supplement."

With that, the One-Eyed Man opened the bottle, poured half into Ye Qing's mouth, and forced him to swallow it by holding his mouth shut.

"The other half is for that Shen Tianjun's granddaughter. This bottle is enough for you two to enjoy a passionate night. Again, no need to thank me, hahaha..." The One-Eyed Man laughed triumphantly, as if everything was under control.

With the drug ingested, Ye Qing felt an indescribable heat in his lower abdomen, knowing things were not good. He glared angrily at the One-Eyed Man, but there was nothing he could do to change the situation—his power was far inferior to that of the One-Eyed Man.

The One-Eyed Man leaned against a tree trunk, sitting on the ground, watching the Shen Family Manor below, carefully observing for any sign of Shen Qingyi. After waiting a while without seeing Shen Qingyi, he seemed a little impatient, turning to look at Ye Qing, whose face was flushed, and laughed, "By the way, kid, do you know why I'm being so generous, giving you such a good opportunity?"
