Chapter 229: 229、The Golden Sight(Part three)
Li Dian also knew in his heart . He was afraid that these daoyuan students would kill him . Since they expressed their hostility towards him, Li Dian could only keep his eye on Yuan Liangtuo .
He thought, as long as I'm looking at you, there's nothing you can do to me! Hahaha, I'm so smart!
As Yuan Liangtuo and his company followed the tour guide into the Kumbum monastery, his girlfriend Yuan Li whispered, "That weird uncle keeps staring at you…"
Upon the warning, Yuan Liangtuo turned his head and came into eye contact with Li Dian…
"From Yuan Liangtuo's distress, +299!"
"Let's ignore him, this person has a mental problem," Yuan Liangtuo had no energy left to deal with this as he and his friends quickened their pace . However, Li Dian followed suit and quickened his pace too!
There wasn't a need for Li Dian to look Yuan Liangtuo in his eyes as long as he was looking towards his direction .
On the other hand, Lu Shu was trying to hold back his laughter . This misunderstanding is escalating, how awesome!
He was delighted at the progress of the situation . As long as the two of them kept going at it, he could obtain 20k+ distress points . At this rate, he could finally finish lighting up the second nebula!
How invincible!
Of course, Lu Shu knew that these distress points were not long-term but every bit counts…
They followed the tour guide throughout the Kumbum Monastery . The Kumbum Monastery was built on the mountain and consisted of many temples, prayer halls, and pagodas . It was a serious and majestic place .
"Lu Shu, let's go over there," Lu Xiaoyu pointed to a magnificent golden temple not far away . Lu Shu looked over and saw a temple with an entire roof tiled with gold .

At this moment, as Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu stepped through the doorsteps of the golden temple, Lu Shu glanced up at the heavily gold-decorated exterior . There were beast sculptures and bronze bells placed at each corner of the roof . The bottom of the temple was made of bricks while the second layer was filled with windows that highlighted the interior of the temple .
The simplistic but yet ancient view of the golden temple made Lu Shu felt as though he was back in the past .
While they were relishing at that moment, the prayer wheels started spinning faster and faster amidst this windless weather .
The set of beast sculptures in the four corners began to tremor in solemn .
At this moment, a reverend clad in a red robe walked out of the temple briskly . With a look of doubt on his face, he looked back at the beast sculptures of the four corners of the roof before turning back to the spinning prayer wheels and the sibling standing there . His expression was all serious .
The air in front of the temple was tightening and both parties were silent . In fact, none of them knew what exactly was happening .
Under such circumstance, Lu Shu's first reaction was to order Lu Xiaoyu, "Wait for me outside!"
Lu Xiaoyu shook her head, "I'm not going, I'm not a burden . "
What was Lu Xiaoyu's training for? It's so that she could fight side by side with Lu Shu . Otherwise, training would be meaningless!
The reverend spoke, "You can't leave! You have to wait for the Rinpoche to be back from his trip!"
Lu Shu frowned, isn't the Rinpoche a living Buddha? To be frank, he didn't quite understand religions . At the beginning of Daoyuan class, he tried to read up about religions but the vast amount of information was too overwhelming . Subsequently, he aimed to understand the bare minimum without much in-depth exploration .

But why did he and Lu Xiaoyu have to wait for the Rinpoche? They are free-thinkers!
What gives you the right to make us stay?
If the other party was to force them to stay, even if the entire temple was filled with Class C and above practitioners, Lu Shu would still want to get out!
However, the reverend noticed Lu Shu frown and corrected his tone, "I don't mean harm . It's just that this incident is too unusual so I was hoping to wait for the Rinpoche to explain . "
Lu Shu felt relaxed after hearing that, "We don't know what happened either . But we're part of a tour group so we really cannot stay . We seek your understanding . "
"Ever since this temple was built, I have never witnessed such a thing . There might be karma attached to you guys that are causing this . If that is really the case, it would be better for you two to wait for the Rinpoche's return," The reverend explained, "I have no evil intentions and I believe that the golden temple has no evil intentions too . "
Lu Shu shook his head, "During the past 17 years, I haven't done many good deeds but neither did I commit many sins . My conscience is clear so why would there be karma? Since there isn't any, there's no need for anyone to explain . Also, I do not believe in reincarnation so I shall take my leave . "
Finishing his words, he held Lu Xiaoyu's hand and left . This was the other party's turf and if he wasn't so bent on having them stay, leaving quickly was better .
Although his and Lu Xiaoyu's strength combined could definitely be on par with a Class C, he couldn't be sure just how many Class Cs were there in this huge temple . . .
Furthermore, this place wasn't under the surveillance of the heavenly network and there must be a reason . There wasn't a need for Lu Shu to find unnecessary trouble .
The reverend urged, "There's no need to be worried as it might not be karma . What if you two were fated to be here?"
"Not fated, goodbye!" Lu Shu's face blackened . What fate? I much prefer the outside world!
The reverend was hoping for the two of them to stay but after seeing their resolve, he could only remain speechless .
Confused, he watched the two rows of prayer wheels slowly stopping as the two of them left the temple . Even the beast sculptures had calmed down .
Everything was back to normal .
He concluded that this unusual sighting much is related to those two but whether it was because of the brother or sister, he wasn't sure .
He can only wait for the Rinpoche's return!
Lu Shu held Lu Xiaoyu's hand and headed back to their tour group . On the way, Lu Xiaoyu asked curiously, "Lu Shu, what is the karma he mentioned?"
"Simply put, it's evil deeds," Lu Shu didn't expect it either, "But didn't he also say that it might not be karma . And since we haven't done anything evil, it should be a good thing . "
"Lu Shu, don't you ever become a monk!" Lu Xiaoyu stopped walking and said seriously .
"What monk?! Am I that kind of person?" Lu Shu didn't know whether to cry or laugh .
