Chapter 275 - 275: 274. Thoughts in the Heart Are Easy to Make Up in the Brain
These few days, the other party didn’t return to Green Bull Mountain’s sect, nor did he contact his sect elders to report that he had been abducted by Chen Luoyang.
This seemed very contradictory.
If he was resigned to his fate, he should return to Green Bull Temple on Green Bull Mountain and think of a way to steal the Supreme Purity Jade.
If they were unwilling to submit, they should simply ask the elders in the sect for help.
Now, he was acting as if nothing had happened. He couldn’t possibly wait for the 15-day time limit that Chen Luoyang had set for him to be up and calmly wait for death, right?
Could it be that his method of saving himself was to wait until the time was up and see if Chen Luoyang could kill him?
Let’s see if your blade is faster or my head is harder?
This was too ridiculous.
What happened to the monk last time had already told him that he could not resist on his own.
If he still had hope for his sect elders, he should have quickly asked for help.
From the abnormal actions of this young Daoist priest, Chen Luoyang could vaguely sense the contradiction in his thoughts.
He wasn’t sure if his guess was right, but he decided to give it a try and see if he could help the other party.
The young Taoist priest was indeed conflicted.
He was not willing to be controlled by the mysterious person like this. His life and death could be in his hands at any time.
In the few days that he had temporarily regained his freedom, the young Taoist priest had been thinking of a way.
The fact that the other party could easily capture him without any room for resistance meant that the other party was indeed powerful. The instant the monk turned into ashes was also proof of this.
He couldn’t resist on his own. He had to borrow the strength of his sect.
The Green Bull Temple of the Green Bull Mountain was the number one holy land of the Red Dust Sect.
The Abbey Dean was the top master of Taoism and the top existence in the entire Mortal World.
The young Taoist priest was worried that he would be killed by the mysterious person the moment he revealed the secret.
But it was not impossible.
When he returned to the monastery, he would be there all day long, even going to the toilet, bathing, and sleeping.
It was awkward, but if the mysterious man took him away, he would be discovered and the Abbey Dean might be alerted.
This can’t be considered as me leaking a secret, right?
Although the monk said that he had disappeared in front of the elders in the temple and that the elders of his sect had not found him after that, it was possible that the monk was bluffing. Perhaps he had been taken away when he was alone in private.
I can always keep someone watching me. Maybe I can give it a try?
If I don’t take the initiative to reveal the secret, that mysterious person won’t kill me just because I’m not alone, right?
With his arrogant personality, if he was really powerful, he would most likely ignore the people of the Green Bull Temple.
Whether or not the Green Bull Temple could find him in the future would depend on the ability of his sect.
The young Taoist priest had such an idea.
But he was still hesitant.
Although it was dangerous, it was also an opportunity for him.
Danger, danger, but also an opportunity.
If he continued like this, it would be very difficult for him to truly stand out among his fellow disciples.
If the reward provided by this mysterious person was impressive, it might help him advance further.
However, his first mission was to steal the treasures in his temple. This made the young Taoist priest’s heart beat fast.
If an external enemy wanted to harm the monastery, that would be bad. He would become a traitor without knowing it.
Although the Supreme Pure Jade had more symbolic significance than practical significance, and even if it was lost, it would not cause any real harm to the temple, the young Taoist priest was still somewhat uncertain.
In particular, stealing this Supreme Purity Jade was equivalent to giving the other party a hold on him, and it would be difficult for him to turn back.
Just as the young Taoist priest was hesitating, his vision suddenly blurred.
When his vision returned to normal, he was once again in the dark space shrouded in starlight.
The young Taoist priest remained calm and did not say anything. He only looked around.
Then, he realized that other than the two women he had seen before, there was another person this time.
The newcomer was shrouded in the starlight, and his appearance was still unclear.
He could barely make out the outline of the figure. It seemed to be a man of medium build. His clothes seemed to be more exquisite and grand, but he could not see the exact style.
The man was looking around, as if he was also trying to observe the three of them.
“May I ask how I should address the three of you? And where is this place?” The new man asked in a deep voice,”ls the owner here?”
The deep and dignified voice was nowhere to be heard.
The young Taoist priest pondered for a moment and roughly understood that this was the old rule of the owner of this place. The old man introduced the situation to the newcomer.
“The owner of this place is mysterious and unpredictable. He brought us here for a bet between him and a friend.” The young Taoist priest did not want to go against the mysterious man on such a small matter, so he spoke slowly.
After he briefly explained the situation, the man in luxurious clothes replied, ‘”‘Thank you, Taoist priest, for answering my questions. May I know how I should address you? I often travel with Mount Taiyi.”
The young Taoist priest was silent for a moment and did not answer immediately.
” What? ” The man in luxurious clothes seemed to understand. Taoist priest, you’re also in the starlight. Can you see my face clearly? ”
“I can only make out their outlines, but I can’t see their faces,” the young Taoist priest answered.
“Looks like the owner of this place doesn’t want us to know each other’s identities,” said the man.
At this moment, the dignified and deep voice sounded again.”This old master doesn’t mind you guys exchanging names. The reason why I’m maintaining this is actually for your sake.”
The young Taoist priest, Yan Mingkong, and Han Mei were all moved.
The dignified voice continued, ” Your number is increasing. As I choose the right person, more people will come. Now, I have something to tell you.
The task I’ve given you will be rewarded if you complete it, and those who fail will be punished. If you fail more than twice, I’ll discard you.
The missions given to you all have a time limit. If you complete the mission ahead of time, the number of days you save will be ranked.
The person who saves the most will be rewarded, and the person who saves the least will also be abandoned by this old man.
As soon as he said that, everyone’s hearts tightened.
Han Mei took a deep breath and then exhaled.
As expected, there was a competitive relationship between them.
The dignified and deep voice continued, ‘”‘This old man and my friend’s bet doesn’t require a lot of manpower, so I will choose from you and choose the best.”
The young Taoist priest’s heart was heavy and he was bewildered.
Han Mei looked at Yan Mingkong unhappily.
Yan Mingkong remained silent, his eyes looking down at his nose and nose looking down at his heart, as if he was meditating.
The man in luxurious clothes took a deep breath and said, “Senior, may I ask if I can find someone outside of this place to help me complete the mission without mentioning your existence to others?”
A dignified voice sounded. ” It’s fine. Network is also a part of one’s ability. I only look at the results. However, there are some tasks that others can’t help you with.
“I understand,” replied the man calmly.
“Very good,” said the mysterious man.
Then, the red light sealed the young Taoist priest, Yan Mingkong, and Han Mei.
They were not surprised. They knew that the mysterious person was going to give the man in luxurious clothes a mission.
A moment later, the red light dissipated, and the three of them regained their perception of the outside world.
The man in luxurious clothes was silent, as if he was also troubled by the mission.
“Alright, that’s all for today. You can go your separate ways,” said the mysterious man.
“Yes, Senior,” the four of them replied in unison.
The young Taoist priest felt that this matter would do more harm than good, and the danger was too high. He was thinking of ways to let the elders in the sect know about this matter when he suddenly heard the new man in luxurious clothes raise his voice and say, “Senior, please wait.”
Everyone was surprised.
The man in luxurious clothes looked at the starlight where Hanmei was.”Miss, I have something to ask.”
“What is it?” Han Mei was confused.
Before he finished speaking, the man in luxurious clothes shouted,” Oh, Han Mei, it really is you. I thought I heard your voice just now! ”
Han Meizhang was confused.
She was very sure that she had never heard this man’s voice before. Could it be that someone she knew had disguised his voice before?
It was too late for her to disguise her voice now. She could only snort coldly.”What nonsense are you spouting?”
The man in luxurious clothes was naturally a smurf that Chen Luoyang had created himself to pass off as a pearl.
He sneered. ” You injured my nephew, stole the treasure, and then ran away without a trace. I’m going to settle the score with you.
Han Mei felt a little guilty.
She had beaten up quite a number of people…
If it was any other time, she would have admitted her mistake.
However, in this situation, there were still many things that she had not figured out, so she could only be stubborn.”Then go find someone to take revenge. Keep your eyes open and don’t find the wrong person. I don’t have time to go crazy with you.”
As she spoke, she secretly rejoiced.
Although Yan Mingkong had fought with her before, he did not seem to recognize her.
However, on the other side, the young Taoist priest’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Han Mei…
He had heard of this name before.
A 20-year-old reaching the 14th realm was really rare. Basically, all of them were famous in the mortal world.
Among them, Hanmei was especially legendary.
Because she was the only one who did not have a prestigious background.
Among the remaining people, even Chen Luoyang, who had recently risen to fame in the mortal world, had a background from the Ancient Gods Clan.
Han Mei’s name was especially eye-catching when she was with such a group of famous children.
Some powerful sects and forces were interested in recruiting her.
It was not simple for this woman to have her current achievements.
It was not easy to lack the guidance of a master teacher, and it was also difficult to obtain profound secret impartation techniques. However, to have such high cultivation strength at such a young age, one had to have a lot of material resources.
Where did she get it from?
If she had dealt with this mysterious person a long time ago and completed his mission in exchange for the reward, everything seemed to make sense.
He did not mention when this bet was set.
This woman was Xuan Yi, and she was ranked first…
