Book 20 Chapter 7 – Mutual Deception[1]
Xu Ziling, disguised as Yue Shan, swaggered up thetoward the temple, with his hands behind his back
The narrow road suddenly opened; under the glow of the setting sun, a winding creek, gurgling softly as it ht, thick and solid forest of Chinese giant redwood The es, all different from each other in ter to the other, each one started when the other ended, forular space in thethe only passage a toward the te could be considered at least half an expert in architecture; his heart was full of praise, knowing that this design must have come frootten that he was about to face danger very soon, replaced by a co beautiful scenery, following the forest path and the s the trees
The ly there was another serous cliff, overlooking the vast, endless empty space and the beautiful scenery of thehis vision from the serene and hidden in the depth of the forest to the expansive universe that see in parallel without any hindrance
This drastic changeshook incessantly, so that he stood inside the pavilion, staring blankly at the distance, and it was quite a while later that he was finally able to regain his co thesteeper as he went deeper into the h another forest, he caht toward the gate of the temple
This no-naainst the mountain, the stone steps were in disrepair, full of weeds and wild vine; apparently it has been abandoned for quite a long tiloo took a deep breath and started to climb step by step
The appearance of those vicious people of the four extremely de of the saying ‘in the wider world, there are people iven hie
Someday, if he could roam around the world to widen his experience, to meet warriors and scholars of extraordinary talent, that would definitely be very interesting, so that would make his life more colorful
Were it not for his decision to choose this remote wilderness, this time he could not possibly enjoy such a peculiar encounter
He was not too worried over shi+ Qingxuan; since she had the courage to play her flute to provoke these four vicious people, naturally she would have at least a bit confidence that she would be able to deal with them Otherwise, if she ever fell into the hands of any one of those four, it would be better if she died rather than alive
The stone steps under his feet have ended, ahead was the pitch-black opening of the te a stench of decay
Without the slightest hesitation Xu Ziling stepped over the threshold and entered the teht
Xu Ziling focused his eyes to look, and sao with her back facing hile oil lae
The Bodhisattva was dilapidated, with its paint peeling off, covered in dust and cobwebs; a picture of bleak, cold and desolate at’s eyes swept around; while he was feeling surprised to find not a single one of You Niaojuan and the others was to be seen, shi+ Qingxuan’s clear andsoftly in his ears, “Excuse me, may I ask whichshe was still sitting with her back toward hi spoke indifferently, “If Miss turn around to look, won’t you ixuan’s soft voice said, “Although Qianbei [Senior] possesses superiorfor If you are just passing by incidentally, hearing the flute and co to see, then let Wanbei [junior] offer a bit of advice for Qianbei to leave iht be drawn into a coes”
Letting out a weird-sounding laughter, Xu Ziling said, “I don’t believe in demon, so I want to see it with my own eyes Miss needs not worry about Laofu’s life or death”
Finished speaking, he walked over toward the corner near the door, and sat down against the wall
shi+ Qingxuan was still sitting with her back facing the door, with her eyes fixed on the flickering flame of the lantern Her silhouette seelow of the oil lahtly and softly hanging on her back, it also accentuated her fragrant shoulders and her graceful, beautiful and wonderful outline, which looked as distinct as if she was carved with a knife
Sih to ly exotic beauty that see she did not turn around, she was only sighing faintly, as if she had no interest in Xu Ziling’s whereabouts
The afterglow of the sunset finally disappeared beyond the distant horizon outside the temple The oil lamp on the sacrificial table in front of the Bodhisattva becaxuan’s solitary high and outstanding, hard-to-, the insects were starting to buzz, filling the air outside the temple with rich and ethereal noises In the cacophony of noise, there was so the deathly still wilderness suddenly bri with life
An unusual sound was suddenly heard outside the temple
At first it sounded like the cry of a baby, but then it turned into the ’s self-cultivation, and his knowledge that sohost, he could not stop his hair fro up, and involuntarily recalled Zhu Yuyan’s de sound
Yet shi+ Qingxuan seeant and serene attitude
At first Xu Ziling did not understand why although he could not see her facial expression, yet he was able to clearly, unmistakably sense her state of an to realize that he was able to grasp her inner the movements and reaction of her flesh and blood vessels under her clothes that ordinary people would find it hard to detect
Regarding this kind of insight, Xu Ziling hiress that even in his dream he had never expected
The deed; from the front suddenly it moved to the back, froht, continuouslyconcentrated on the open area in front of the te ghost’s wailing and deth was insufficient, it would be strange indeed if he did not cover his ears and tremble in fear
It felt as if you were suddenly thrown into the Asura’s hell, where thousands and tens of thousands ghosts who died tragically all ca, the air was thick with gloo!”
The ’s eardru shi+vered in fear, thinking that wasn’t it Susu’s voice, calling for hi that the demonic noise nearly entered his uard his heart
shi+ Qingxuan sighed faintly again Like ic, a bamboo flute appeared in her hand, which she put on her lips, but she did not blow it It did notsole clear tone seemed to slowly appear from the distant plain, and slowly continued fro, brihostly wail twisting terrifyingly, ear-piercing, harsh, covering the heaven, shrouding the earth, see perilous situation, shi+ Qingxuan’s note was like an unsinkable sh every now and then it seeantic waves, in the end it was always able to float safely
Xi Ziling’s heart was also tossed around by a thousand layers of giant waves, because this was the first time that he personally experienced the extraordinary feat sound breaking sound The huge benefit he gained was surely hard to describe
He finally grasped the possibility to contend against Zhu Yuyan’s denificant, as well as decisive, role in Kou Zhong and his struggle against Yin Gui Pai
Once again he was co flute sound

Xi Ziling has co skill, until the note beca out of the bamboo pipe shook and burst like a clear bird’s cry
It was an extraordinarily unprecedented feeling
The flute sound was growing faster and faster, as if in one breath it was able to carry you a crazy 108,000 li; the tiularly tens of thousands of ti and growing in intensity, brith, tension, and inspiration [I auage, so I am also sure that you enjoy these sentences, which, to host vanished gradually, until it caentle flute sound filling the heaven and earth, which o
But the flute suddenly stopped
shi+ Qingxuan spoke indifferently, “Since honored guests have arrived, why not enter the tehter shi+ Qingxuan has been waiting respectfully for four Qianbei’s good selves’ appearance”
Gusts of wind arrived swiftly
