All this information made Long Qie decide not to inform Leng Ruobing about this news. He knew in his heart that sothing must have happened to Xiao Zheng!
So he decided to only notify Evil Eyes and Titan. The three of them would go see Xiao Zheng first, assess the situation, and then make a decision!
As Long Qie rushed out of the base, Evil Eyes and Titan were already waiting for him there, both with expressions of excitent and urgency, yet still calm.
"Shall we go?" Long Qie didn’t pause, heading straight out of the base.
"Not notifying anyone else?" Titan frowned slightly, feeling a bit uneasy.
Long Qie shook his head and decisively said, "The situation is unclear now; the three of us should investigate first."
"What about the Great Sound Buddha Sect?"
Evil Eyes’ eyes flashed with a cold light, erupting with unrestrained Gang Qi from within his body and said coldly, "Whoever dares to stop us, I will kill them!"
The three exchanged knowing smiles and sped up towards Xiao Zheng’s location.
...
Bei Daohai sat in the courtyard, looking at the book in his hand with a slight frown. It wasn’t a good book, at least not to him, but he persisted in reading it because he believed every book has its monts of brilliance.
He just hadn’t discovered them yet.
But he was indeed in a bad mood.
Beep beep beep!
A series of call request beeps ca from his earpiece. He frowned, a naless anger rising in his heart. For so reason, his mood was just not good today.
Perhaps because he learned about the failure of the assassination mission against Chu Xiaoran? He asked himself.
Beep beep beep!
The sound persisted, increasingly annoying his already impatient heart.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and pressed the call button.
"If there’s no good news, you can disappear from this world." His first sentence lacked courtesy, but he never needed to be courteous.
"Ergency report, ergency report, Long Qie, Evil Eyes, and Titan have left the Sky Net Base together. Repeating, Long Qie, Evil Eyes, and Titan have left the Sky Net Base together!"
Hmm?!
Bei Daohai stood up abruptly, his eyes flashing with a keen light.
In Sky Net, the ones he most feared were these three. If they left Sky Net, wouldn’t that an the entire base was now completely open to him, utterly undefended?
His heart was overjoyed, and he flipped his palm, holding a communicator. But just as he was about to press the red button, he suddenly hesitated.
Long Qie, Titan, and Evil Eyes were not fools. Wouldn’t they realize what he could think of? Given how confidently they left Sky Net, did they have sothing to rely on?
Moreover, why did they leave Sky Net? What could be more urgent than a crisis at Sky Net that needed addressing?
He pondered deeply, his heart sinking with a more disturbing thought creeping in, making his previously joyful heart gradually fall.
Sothing that could unsettle these three, making them lose their reason... In his understanding, there was only one possibility.
This was also Beidao Guang’s greatest worry.
He took a deep breath, feeling a chill throughout his body, as though falling into an abyss.
Has Xiao Zheng... appeared?
.........
Great Sound Buddha Sect.
Tian Yin sat cross-legged on a ditation mat in the Chan room, eyes closed, with air currents surrounding his body. With each breath, an air flow entered his body, making his complexion rosier.
After a long while, he finally opened his eyes slowly, sighed lightly, and waved his hand to disperse the surrounding Gang Qi, looking at the Buddha statue before him with so emotion, and murmuring.
"The sea of Buddhism is boundless, the sea of Buddhism is boundless, yet my life is finite and knowledge is infinite. To follow the infinite with the finite, is perilous!" He sighed lightly, then opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes, and calmly said, "What’s the matter?"
The door creaked open.
Su He walked in from outside, respectfully making a bow, but without her usual charm, instead showing a heavy expression.
Tian Yin frowned slightly, "What happened?"
Su He said nothing, handing over a sealed and intact docunt.
Tian Yin raised an eyebrow noticing this was the highest-level confidential docunt in the Great Sound Buddha Sect, causing so curiosity in him about what matter required such caution?
He took the docunt, quickly opened it, and read through it. Monts later, the calmness on his face beca one of serious concern.
He closed the docunt, moved his Gang Qi, and shredded it into dust, and a gust of wind blew it throughout the surroundings.
He said seriously, "So, Xiao Zheng is still alive. And he’s in Zhonghai."
Su He nodded, pursing her lips, hesitated, and said, "However, according to reports from those who returned, he seems to have so issues."
"What do you an?"
"He seems to have... forgotten a lot of things."
Tian Yin raised an eyebrow in surprise and said, "Amnesia?"
Su He paused for a mont, then nodded.
Tian Yin looked contemplative, stood up and gazed at the sky, a keen light flashing in his eyes. Then he turned his indifferent face towards Su He and calmly said, "Notify Beidao Guang about this matter and let them make the decision. We need to stay out of this for the ti being."
"Is that wise?" Su He frowned slightly, hesitating, "Isn’t it better for fewer people to know about this?"
Tian Yin shook his head, "Many things can no longer be hidden. Beidao Guang must have received the news too. Informing them also shows our sincerity. Moreover..."
Su He raised her head in confusion, waiting for Tian Yin’s further explanation.
Tian Yin sighed lightly, feeling lancholic and said, "Moreover, the current situation is no longer under our control."
Su He was shocked, not expecting her master to make such a sowhat disheartened statent.
Tian Yin turned towards her, gazing steadily and said, "As your master, it’s not that I lack confidence, but that I have too much confidence in the Evil God. If he really returned alive, this matter cannot be easily resolved."
"Are you saying..."
"Either kill him, or he kills us. That’s the only choice."
Su He’s face changed, instinctively stepping back.
She obviously knew the outco would be like this, and understood that if Xiao Zheng appeared, the critical issue lies in how to make him disappear again.
Thus, necessarily, Xiao Zheng must die once more.
Neither Beidao Guang nor other family forces could accomplish this task; only the Great Sound Buddha Sect had this capability.
But what surprised her was Tian Yin’s latter statent. Although Xiao Zheng was strong and his performance at the martial arts tournant made Su He believe this fact, she couldn’t bring herself to believe that soone so young had attained a level that Tian Yin admitted to fearing.
And he admitted it himself.
It really is...
"So, do you understand?" Tian Yin shook his head, a bit helplessly and said, "Xiao Zheng, his training and power are very strong, but his thoughts are too naïve. If he could join our Buddha Sect, in the future, he would surely be a dragon and phoenix of Huaxia. It’s a pity..."
