Chapter 613 Sarah Banta
Since someone dared to sneer at her son, Li Yueying said in a cold voice, “I know my older brother very well and I don’t believe he would marry Li Meiyu to a poor boy who’s good for nothing . I’m pretty sure that you’re faking the marriage contract to take our money away . ”
Qin Haodong did not care what she had just said . He laughed instead . “There’s someone faking the marriage contract, but it’s not me . ”
Li Meiyu also added, “Yes, I can prove it . Grandpa did promise to marry me to him . ”
“What…”
The marriage contract and the proof of a party involved immediately put Li Yueying and her son at a disadvantage .
Li Jianye frowned with dissatisfaction . He did not expect that their carefully-planned scheme would come to nothing . He was also well aware that it was no use arguing with them .
Thus, he cut in, “Well, Let’s forget about the will and marriage contract then . My brother’s funeral is the top priority . ”
He turned to Li Meiyu and said, “Get in and say goodbye to your grandfather . ”
Li Meiyu also realized that arguing with them was just a waste of time, so she gave up and went into the inner room with Qin Haodong and Nalan Wushuang .
There was a crystal coffin in the middle of the room and inside lay Li Dongguo, the founder of the Li Group . The lid of the coffin was removed to make the tribute more convenient .
On one side of the coffin sat an old man in a green robe . He was about 60 years old and looked like a great master with his ruddy complexion and neatly-arranged hair .
They walked into the room but the old man didn’t even look at them . He sat still and murmured . It seemed that he was reciting sutras for Li Dongguo .
Li Jianye said, “Meiyu, your grandpa passed away and I’ve invited Master Zha to recite sutras for him . I believe that he will definitely enter Paradise . ”
Upon hearing that this man was Master Zha, Qin Haodong looked at him carefully and found a faint fluctuation of spiritual power around him . This old man must have some real techniques .
“Grandpa!”
Li Meiyu could no longer suppress her sadness at the sight of her grandpa . She cried and burst into tears while holding his body .
Li Meiyu’s grandpa was her only family member . She knew that he loved and cared about her even though he had always been strict with her . But now her grandpa had passed away, leaving her alone in this world . How could she live her life?
Li Jianye hastened to comfort her, “Meiyu, please don’t cry . Your grandpa has passed away . Please, don’t let him worry about you . ”
Qin Haodong looked away from Master Zha and turned instead to Li Dongguo who was lying in the coffin . A thought suddenly struck him .
Li Meiyu was still crying, so he went forward and comforted her, “Meiyu, don’t cry . It’s no use crying here . ”
He pulled Meiyu up and then straightened Li Dongguo’s body . Seemingly unintentionally, he put his hand behind his head and put it straight .
Li Meiyu stopped crying and said, “I want to stay here for the wake . ”
Li Yueying said, “It’s your duty to stay here for the wake . You’re a good kid and your grandpa will be proud and relieved . ”
Just then, a skinny monk came in from outside . He was in his 30s or 40s and was wearing a purple-red frock . He was clearly a monk but Qin Haodong felt a gloom force around him .
“The master is here . ”
Li Yueying greeted the monk with great happiness and then turned to Li Meiyu and said, “This is Master Sarah Banta from Thailand . He came here today to recite sutras for your grandpa . They were good friends . ”
Upon hearing that he was a master from Thailand, Li Meiyu said respectfully, “Thank you, master . ”
Li Yueying added, “Sarah Banta is a great master . He’s the disciple of the state teacher of Thailand and will definitely help your grandpa enter Paradise . ”
Sarah Banta said something in Thai but nobody could understand him . Then, he knelt down on the futon in front of the coffin and began to recite sutras for Li Dongguo .
The sutras he was reciting were strange and sounded like cries or the Buddhist chants . It made one feel gloomy and scared with the dim light in the mourning hall .
Master Zha, who was sitting beside him, opened his eyes and glanced at the weird monk . But he closed his eyes and continued with his Taoist scriptures without saying anything .
Li Meiyu also found a futon and sat down on her knees . Qin Haodong and Nalan Wushuang were standing behind her . They would not leave her alone at this critical moment .

Li Meiyu suddenly felt a little dizzy as Sarah Banta recited his sutras . Her eyelids were dropping and she seemed to lose consciousness with her glassy eyes .
Qin Haodong immediately noticed that something was wrong with her . He looked at Sarah Banta and realized that his sounds had similar effects with Xiao Luochen’s mind-controlling skills . Both of them could attack people’s minds with a particular sound .
Obviously, this monk was Li Yueying’s trump card . If he didn’t interrupt, Li Meiyu would become a fool or even explode before she noticed anything wrong .
He took half a step forward and put his palm on Li Meiyu’s back . Genuine Qi came out of his body and formed an air shield around her, blocking the sounds of reciting sutras .
Li Meiyu immediately came to her senses after being protected from Sarah Banta’s attacks . She shook her head slightly and did not realize what had happened . She just wondered why she was so sleepy and tired just now .
Qin Haodong, of course, was not that kind of man who only defended instead of fighting back . He began to recite the Silent Spell to attack Sarah Banta .
Sarah Banta’s dim eyes suddenly lit up and he started to fight against Qin by reciting sutras in a louder voice .
Unfortunately, he was gradually suppressed by Qin Haodong despite his louder voice .
After a while, Sarah Banta’s eyes gleamed with panic and there was also sweat on his forehead . A thin layer of smoke even rose around him . Others might think that this monk was too dedicated to his work .
But in fact, he was almost overwhelmed by fear . He couldn’t resist Qin Haodong’s silent spell even with all his efforts . He nearly exceeded his limit now .
When facing this direct and powerful attack against his soul, Sarah Banta had no choice but to resist with all his might . He realized that the opponent must be a great master, but he could only struggle and have a try .
Sarah Banta flicked fingers of his right hand and a faint red light shot toward Qin Haodong . No one noticed it with the dim light in the mourning hall .
However, Qin Haodong saw the red light clearly under the state of Spirit . It was a poisonous needle .
He sneered and the poisonous needle immediately changed its direction as he flickered a finger . How dare this stupid monk attack him! The needle pierced into Sarah Banta’s mouth at a faster speed as he was still reciting sutras .
At the same time, the Silent Spell broke out and Sarah Banta’s soul was broken into pieces . The last thing he heard was a rumble of thunder in his head .
The poisonous needle was produced by Sarah Banta himself and the producer had the antidote . But he had already become an idiot after being attacked, so the only thing he could do now was to wait for his death .

Sarah Banta was dead and the sound of reciting sutras also stopped .
Li Yueying was standing and waiting not far away . She had invited Sarah Banta to turn Li Meiyu into an idiot so that they could take all the money away .
Unexpectedly, Li Meiyu still looked energetic and it didn’t seem that she had already become an idiot . Li Yueying was getting impatient but Sarah Banta suddenly stopped his reciting, which made her more perplexed .
At first, she thought that the monk was just tired and wanted to take a break, but he didn’t get started after a long while .
Li Yueying had lost her patience . She went over and patted Sarah Banta on the shoulder, asking, “Master, have you finished your sutras?”
To her surprise, Sarah Banta’s body was cold . Then, he fell to the ground with a thud and his face was pale, showing no signs of life .
“What…”
Li Yueying had never expected that the monk was dead . She jumped up with scare and shouted, “He’s dead! He’s dead!”
Everyone gathered around her at the sound of her cry . Li Jianye asked, “What’s going on? What happened to him?”
Li Yueying said with a pale face, “I don’t know . The master stopped reciting just now, so I went over to check him . I didn’t expect that he had already died . ”
Qin Haodong said with a teasing smile, “I remembered that he was a good friend of Old Master Li . Maybe he felt lonely there and wanted Sarah Banta to be with him . ”
“What…”
Li Yueying knew that Qin Haodong was mocking her, but she had nothing to say to contradict him . She said to Wu Zixiong with bitterness, “Ask someone to send the master back to Thailand right now . ”
Wu Zixiong beckoned to the bodyguards and they carried the body of Sarah Banta out of the mourning hall .
At that moment, Master Zha, who was sitting next to the coffin, slowly stood up .
Li Jianye immediately came over to him and said respectfully, “Master Zha, thank you for reciting sutras . ”

Master Zha replied, “I’m just an ordinary man practicing Taoist arts . Just now, I’ve recited 49 times of ‘Bitter-Saving Sutra’ . I believe that my old friend will definitely enter Paradise . ”
“Master Zha, thank you so much for your hard work!”
Li Jianye expressed his gratitude over and over again .
Li Yueying asked, “Master Zha, Sarah Banta died when he was reciting sutra for my brother . Do you know what happened?”
Master Zha said, “My old friend started from scratch and established such a huge business empire all by himself . He’s a man of great fortune .
“One must be strong and skilled enough to recite sutras for my friend . The monk you mentioned was not good enough . That’s why he failed and lost his life in this process . What a pity!” Master Zha said with his face full of complacency, implying that he was much more skilled than Sarah Banta .
“I see . Master Zha, you’re really good at Taoist arts . ”
Li Jianye was pleased because Master Zha was obviously better than Sarah Banta who had been invited by Li Yueying . He defeated her this time .
After a pause, he said, “Master Zha, there’s another thing I want to ask for your help . ”
