Chapter 1561 - 586: Feigning Sincerity (Part 2)
Master Kong Yan shook his head repeatedly, saying: "If you want to die, don’t bring this old monk along. This old monk has not yet attained Buddhahood and does not intend to meet the Buddha now.
"This young man, with martial arts skills so profound.
"Looking so handsome and suave, how could he possibly be a useless idiot?
"Why do you think he’s openly cultivating here?
"Could it be he doesn’t know we have yet to reach the Western Heaven?"
"This..."
Shi Cheng was taken aback, then nodded slightly:
"Master’s words make sense, either this person seems to be cultivating but is actually putting on an act.
"To lure us into action, so he can send us both to meet our Buddha.
"Or perhaps the skill he is cultivating is unafraid of disruptions.
"It can be interrupted at any time.
"Judging from the hum of this Bei Forest, it should be the latter.
"However, I have a third possibility."
"The young boy has much thought."
Master Kong Yan glanced at Shi Cheng: "Let’s hear it."
"He may have no choice but to cultivate."
Shi Cheng chuckled:
"Seeing us, he immediately attacks, clearly not someone with good intentions.
"If he had met that Evil Su before this.
"He would naturally know he’s not a match for that Old Demon.
"Within the Martial God Temple, he can’t get out in a short time... At this point, he can only hope for a breakthrough in martial arts to turn danger into safety from that Old Demon.
"And he goes nowhere else but comes here, it seems to be premeditated.
"Now, he can’t concern himself with anything else, so he can only take a risk.
"As for whether he’s afraid of being disturbed, it really doesn’t matter whether he’s afraid or not.
"If he’s afraid, then it’s just a show.
"He assumes we don’t dare to go out.
"Or he truly isn’t afraid..."
"You’ve been talking for so long; it’s like farting."
Master Kong Yan had a face full of kindness but couldn’t help speaking his mind.
Shi Cheng seemed to understand why this monk needed to practice silent meditation.
If he didn’t practice silent meditation, he might have been beaten to death long before these thirty years because of his mouth...
But one has to admit, Master Kong Yan’s words weren’t wrong.
Shi Cheng’s considerations were thorough, but there was one question still unanswered.
Is he afraid of being disturbed?
Will he fall into Deviation?
This matter cannot be tested easily; a slight mistake might lead to death.
Just as he was in a dilemma, Shi Cheng suddenly patted Master Kong Yan on the shoulder repeatedly.
Master Kong Yan turned to look at Shi Cheng, only to find him pointing in one direction.
The old monk followed the direction with his gaze and saw a man about fifty years old, with grayish hair and a lean build, slowly walking out from the Bei Forest.
He had already glimpsed the Longmen Sixth Jing at first sight.
Master Kong Yan’s brows furrowed, he immediately held Shi Cheng down and transmitted a message:
"It is Xu Huai Valley."
The famous reputation of the Gui Xu Island’s Island Master Xu Huai Valley was something Shi Cheng would certainly have heard of.
And Su Mo was at odds with this Gui Xu Island, which Shi Cheng also knew.
He immediately held his breath, watching coldly.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Shi Cheng didn’t know the identity of the Sixth Jing, but since he attacked him on sight, he was clearly at odds with Su Mo as well.
Following this logic, there was a chance that the Sixth Jing was friends with Xu Huai Valley.
If Xu Huai Valley were to protect him, then it would be even more difficult to ambush this person.
However, what he saw didn’t seem to go as he imagined.
Xu Huai Valley stepped out of the Bei Forest range, looking at the Sixth Jing from afar.
After a moment, he took something out from his arms again.
It was surprisingly a golden ring!
The Infinite Qiankun Rings were a pair.
Used separately in each hand, the thrown techniques were even more enigmatic, and the sound of golden rings clashing was unsettling, catching people off guard.
Earlier, he had handed one of them to Su Mo, intending to find a way to escape.
Through a secret path, he directly arrived at this Heaven and Earth Four Extremes Thousand Stele Array.
Though he didn’t have the Sixth Jing’s understanding of the place.
But being a great master of the Nanhai, he was also an expert in Arrays.
This Heaven and Earth Four Extremes Thousand Stele Array couldn’t trap him.
He walked at ease, leaving it in no time.
When he saw the Sixth Jing sitting on that stone platform cultivating, his rage rose, and his malevolence grew.
Stealing a sneak attack on me and snatching my Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique.
And now you’re here cultivating, while I must grovel before Su Mo?
Truly preposterous!
Though he knew that the real great enemy now was Su Mo.
He would eventually catch up.
But this anger couldn’t be suppressed.
No reason for the Sixth Jing to be two-faced while needing to show him a friendly face.
As they say, a tooth for a tooth. Things need resolving before joining forces to face an enemy; otherwise, this hurdle can’t be crossed.
Thinking thus, as the Infinite Heart Scripture turned in his mind, he waved his hand, and the Infinite Qiankun spun towards the Longmen Sixth Jing!
It was certainly Xu Huai Valley.
He handled the Infinite Qiankun with ease.
If Su Mo used his Inner Strength to trigger this Infinite Qiankun, it would surely hum the moment it was released.
However, Xu Huai Valley released it silently.
A streak of golden light shot towards the Sixth Jing’s shoulder like a meteor.
The Sixth Jing suddenly opened his eyes and reached out with one hand, lightly pressing.
The Infinite Qiankun Ring was immediately halted three inches from his palm.
Hum!!!
Only then did the Infinite Qiankun roar with a hum.
In an instant, the Sixth Jing’s brow furrowed again, feeling the churn of his Qi and blood, his very marrow seemed to vibrate incessantly.
The circle of water surrounding the round stone platform exploded with a roar.
