Chapter 811 Taoist Master Xuantian Comes Clean
Looking at Heaven Dragon’s hesitant expression, Meng Jing takes a deep breath. His attitude also makes her even determined to go.
“Lord Heaven Dragon, I must go too. Besides, I’ve been to the Ghost Sect. Regarding many things, I can be of much help,” Meng Jing says.
“No, absolutely not.” Heaven Dragon keeps shaking his head.
Meng Jing’s eyes glisten. She says smilingly, “Lord Heaven Dragon, I can understand why you don’t want me to go to the Ghost Sect. How about this? If Gao Ge tells me not to go, I will not then. What do you say? I suppose this is not difficult.”
Hearing that, Heaven Dragon almost bursts out crying in anger.
He even starts to doubt whether Meng Jing has known Gao Ge has headed to the Ghost Sect in advance.
Otherwise, why would she happen to make such a request at the moment?
Is it a coincidence?
There are not many coincidences in the world.
Is it...really because of Meng Jing’s instinct?
At the thought of that, Heaven Dragon looks stern.
Although the saying of instinct must be bullshit for ordinary people, the cultivators like them have seen a lot so they tend to believe things like this. Maybe before the aura recovery, most people believed that there was no ghost in the world but now? Therefore, Heaven Dragon always thinks that many things may exist for real. Yet, nowadays, humans are too short-sighted to see those things for now. Perhaps, the so-called things that people believe don’t exist now can be proved scientifically in many years.
Everything in the future is hard to say.
“What? Lord Heaven Dragon, is my requirement very harsh? Or is it that anything has gone wrong with Gao Ge now?” Meng Jing asks.
Although Meng Jing talks gently, Heaven Dragon thinks that her gaze on him seems like a knife.
He feels a severe headache.
He is even wondering when Meng Jing has become so aggressive. Her question is so sharp...
Heaven Dragon still says nothing. He acts like a kid who has made a mistake and doesn’t dare to admit it.
Meng Jing and Xie Zhuolian have gained a lot of information from Heaven Dragon’s facial expressions.
Heaven Dragon waves his hand before Meng Jing says more.
“Okay. Okay. Please don’t make things difficult for me anymore. Don’t you just want to find Gao Ge? Just come along.”
He is still very composed when he says that.
Even when he meets Gao Ge, he can defend himself.
He doesn’t let Meng Jing and Xie Zhuolian take risks. It is simply because Gao Ge is not here.
Seeing that Heaven Dragon looks swayed, Meng Jing is not happy at all.
She knows that Heaven Dragon agrees to their request simply because Gao Ge may have not really been in Red Fish Village now...
On the tomb passage.
He arrives before the bridge again.
Gao Ge stands next to Taoist Master Xuantian. Now, Taoist Master Xuantian stares at the coffin on the bridge, his eyes glittering.
“It seems that this place leads to the Ghost Sect.”
Gao Ge turns around to take a look at him and slightly knits his eyebrows.
Taoist Master Xuantian seems to notice Gao Ge’s eyes and then laughs, asking, “Are you worried?”
Gao Ge laughs and says, “I hope that I have been excessively worried.”
Taoist Master Xuantian says with a smile, “I can understand that you worry about us but you can rest assured. I can tell you that we do enter the Ghost Sect this time because of our sovereign’s order. Besides, we enter the Ghost Sect for our own purpose too but it won’t conflict with the goal of the Dragon Court at all.”
Gao Ge is slightly dazed. He didn’t expect that Taoist Master Xuantian should be so honest at the moment.
Taoist Master Xuantian continues saying, “This time, we enter the Ghost Sect only in order to take one thing away.”
“What is it?”
“Well...”
Gao Ge squints his eyes, “It seems that it is not convenient to tell me.”
“Haha. That thing belongs to the Celestial Master Sect. This time, if we can take the thing away, it will kind of be returned to its owner.”
Then, Taoist Master Xuantian continues saying, “Moreover, don’t worry. We are here this time also to do the Dragon Court a favor. After all, the Celestial Master Sect is the No. 1 Taoist sect. We must subdue demons and defend orthodoxy. The Ghost Sect has committed all sorts of wicked actions. We couldn’t do anything about them as we couldn’t find them before. Now that we have found where they are, apart from the Dragon Court, the Celestial Master Sect is ready to take on arduous tasks.”
Gao Ge only laughs, “Thank you, Taoist Master Xuantian.”
As to what Taoist Master Xuantian said just now, he doesn’t take it seriously at all.
For so many years, the disciples of the Ghost Sect have been wreaking havoc in the secular world. Although those people who proclaim to be members of a prestigious sect always claim to punish them, when do they really take action? Even the people of the Celestial Master Sect only have killed several disciples of the Ghost Sect due to the conflict of interest. What else have they done? This is a cultivation school of the blessed spot. If they wanted to make trouble for the Ghost Sect, how could things become like this?
This is the first time that Gao Ge has contacted the people of the Celestial Master Sect, but Gao Ge does know something about the Celestial Master Sect.
For example, the people of the Celestial Master Sect are obliged to subdue demons and defend orthodoxy as well as practice geomancy and tell fortune for the secular people, but the fees they charge are always incredibly high!
Of course, they are worth so much indeed. Gao Ge doesn’t want to comment on their seeking fame and gain. After all, this is human nature. It is pretty normal that they always act for profits. However, it is really intolerant for him that they do it in a dignified, high-sounding way. They insist on saying that they are really noble and hope that Huaxia can give them a memorial tablet. They are clearly talking nonsense.
This is also what Gao Ge often says.
One can be a bad person but since he chooses to be a bad guy, he shouldn’t keep praising himself and pose as a philanthropist. If he does so, he will be really looked down upon.
Of course Taoist Master Xuantian doesn’t know what Gao Ge is thinking about. He only says smilingly, “Gao Ge, do you know why I suddenly talk about this with you?”
“You are preparing for both eventualities. For one thing, if possible, you hope that I can take you in there because you know I intend to go first. For another, if I can’t agree with your request, I will help you look for what you’ve lost. Even if you don’t need me to look for it, at least I can leave it alone when I see it,” Gao Ge says calmly.
Taoist Master Xuantian’s eyes slightly twitch. With a nod, he says, “It seems that I’ve underestimated you.”
Gao Ge laughs, “You’ve flattered me but I think everyone talks and acts for his own reason, not to mention you.”
