Tie Binghun had been wondering...
How Cang Lin, as his junior, could suddenly increase the difficulty, when he had clearly stated that the Nine-star Map was his limit at the foundational level.
At this mont, Cang Lin continued to lie, saying, "I was shocked and got lost in thought, then the black-clad youth left."
The crowd looked at each other, but so elders still seed skeptical.
Thus, Cang Lin continued, "As you all know, once I beco engrossed in a Soldier Formation Map, I can’t pull myself away."
After these words fell, the crowd finally believed completely.
Top-tier Soldier Formation Masters are often hopelessly obsessed.
The black-clad youth suddenly created a more difficult Ninth Starry Sky Map, so Cang Lin being absorbed was quite normal.
At this point, Grandma Kui couldn’t help but twitch her lips and said, "So now, we have no idea who the black-clad youth is?"
They all exchanged helpless looks; they desperately wanted to connect with such a genius, each wishing to take him as a disciple.
Moreover, having solved the three biggest challenges in Canggu City, he was entitled to make a request to the Sacred Canggu Peak.
An elder stepped forward and gently asked, "Master of the Peak, should we search for him?"
Tie Binghun deeply gazed at Cang Lin and then shook his head, saying, "The black-clad youth helped us imnsely; it’s clear he doesn’t want to stir up trouble. We have no need to harm him... no search."
These words caused a glint of dissatisfaction in the elders’ eyes, but they dared not speak up.
However, whether they will secretly defy such orders to search, remains unknown.
"Dismissed."
Tie Binghun’s aged voice rang out again, "Let’s consider it a karmic friendship with the black-clad youth. His future is destined to be one of the most exceptional in the Central Plains, and if fate allows, this friendship will surely prove its value."
So, with Tie Binghun’s decision, the elders regretfully left the Soldier Formation Master Guild.
But Tie Ti’er did not leave; instead, she asked Cang Lin, "Grandpa Cang Lin, how did he modify the Ninth Starry Sky Map? What thod did he use to fuse with the Starry Sky Map?"
She was also a formation enthusiast, exceedingly interested in such matters...
Cang Lin chuckled, "In Room One, there is a chess-set formation he arranged. Ti’er, go take a look, and you’ll understand."
Upon hearing this, Tie Ti’er excitedly rushed to Room One, with Grandma Kui following closely behind.
Finally, only Tie Binghun and Cang Lin were left in the inner hall. The forr lowly asked, "Cang Lin, now that it’s just us, can you tell ? Who exactly is the black-clad youth?"
It was obvious that Tie Binghun had already seen through Cang Lin’s intentional concealnt and deliberate dispersal of the crowd.
He was ready to explain everything to his master of the peak.
"A nondescript little fellow from the East Dominator Branch." Cang Lin slowly spoke.
These words left Tie Binghun dumbfounded, expecting the black-clad youth might be the disciple of so great master, yet he turned out to be rely a little fellow from the East Dominator Branch, incredibly perplexing.
"Originally his talent in the Soldier Killing Array was already astonishing, and now his skill in Martial Arts is even more formidable."
Cang Lin sighed repeatedly, recalling the twelve reverberations and seeing Sikong Jing’s image in the Soul Returning Mirror at the ti, leaving him speechless — incredibly unbelievable.
At this mont, Cang Lin ntioned Sikong Jing’s na to Tie Binghun.
And Tie Binghun suddenly stood still, unable to resist asking, "Sikong Jing? Cang Lin, are you sure that’s the na?"
Cang Lin paused, countering, "What’s the problem? Could it be that Brother Master knows Brother Sikong?"
He thought it unlikely that the dignified master of the peak would concern himself with such previously insignificant youngsters.
Upon hearing this, Tie Binghun stood there motionless, then hoarsely said, "The problem isn’t trivial. Of course, I’ve heard of this na, precisely from Ti’er. He originates from the sword array at Su Old Demon’s location in the East Plain Northern Land!"
Clearly, Tie Binghun imdiately thought of Sikong Jing’s origins.
During the Soldier Killing Chess match under Minglong Village, Sikong Jing and Tie Ti’er exchanged nas, and upon Tie Ti’er’s return, she ntioned it to Tie Binghun, triggering his mory.
The key was his connection with Su Old Demon, which made Tie Binghun rember the na.
Suddenly, Cang Lin also felt a great shock, countering, "Is it the sa person Ti’er ntioned, who might have comprehended the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map from Su Old Demon’s final illusion, the little fellow from the East Plain?"
This matter was also brought up by Tie Ti’er because her Soldier Killing Array had been taught by Cang Lin.
But Cang Lin failed to rember the na like Tie Binghun did.
Now Cang Lin also understood why Sikong Jing never ntioned his master lineage.
Since his Soldier Killing Array was enlightened by the illusion Su Old Demon left behind before his death, it’s indeed incredibly profound and difficult to explain...
"Yes, that’s him..."
"Sikong Jing understood sothing from Su Old Demon’s Killing Array just before he died, and now he has such terrifying accomplishnts; it’s indeed an incredible talent."
"Furthermore, he hails from the East Plain Northern Land with no background, reaching such a Martial Arts Realm in such a short ti."
"Think about it, isn’t that quite problematic?"
With Tie Binghun’s deep words, Cang Lin’s face showed a continual shift.
Suddenly, Cang Lin raised his head to ask, "Are you saying he might actually be the heir of Su Old Demon?"
If that’s the case, it’s extrely alarming and deadly!
Tie Binghun, however, shook his head, saying, "No, it’s not that. Akui thoroughly investigated his situation at the ti; besides Su Old Demon’s final monts, he had almost no opportunity to contact him."
"Moreover, during the incident involving Xiu Hanzi in Hanluan City before, Xiu Hanzi sought him out but did not take him in."
"We can basically rule out any connection between him and Su Old Demon."
Regarding Xiu Hanzi’s actions, Cang Lin imdiately recalled the commotion it caused in Hanluan City.
Having wanted to find a Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map heir and having forcibly taken Sikong Jing with initial inheritance, Xiu Hanzi later released him due to confirming Sikong Jing’s inadequacy in Soldier Killing talents.
Thus it can be deduced that there is indeed no connection between him and Su Old Demon.
Otherwise, Xiu Hanzi would surely have taken him away!
"What I an by ’problematic’ is..."
"Perhaps, besides the Soldier Killing Array, he comprehended other things from Su Old Demon at the ti of his death... More importantly, after Su Old Demon died, such a talented individual appears at his burial site, possibly a kind of indirect inheritance."
Instantly, Cang Lin’s eyes lit up, grasping Tie Binghun’s aning.
That it might be sothing destined by fate; the once world-shocking Su Old Demon perished, yet Sikong Jing erged from his resting place, with Su Old Demon striking Tie Cang’s Wuming Stone thirteen tis, and he twelve tis...
Perhaps this will be another figure to shake the Central Plains!
"Of course, this is just speculation; things of the unseen world are too mysterious; we need not take them too seriously."
"Nevertheless, befriending soone like this is quite favorable."
Tie Binghun smiled again, easing the previously tense atmosphere.
Then Cang Lin asked again, "Befriending him? Are you suggesting..."
Smiling again, Tie Binghun slowly spoke, "Ti’er should be growing up now. I plan to send her to Hanluan City to seek Sikong Jing. It’s just in ti for Hanluan City’s ten-year district challenge, so Ti’er can participate in a battle as well."
The so-called district challenge refers to the grand event held once every ten years in Hanluan City.
Being the central city of the Central Plains East, nearly every small to large faction has power and branches within it, including stationed forces of Sacred Canggu Peak.
Hanluan City is divided into Hanba District and Chaotic Eighth District, where the district challenge is about advancing and seizing more central areas.
