Upon reaching the mountain top.
What came into view was a tall vermilion boundary wall, blocking all the scenery behind it.
In the center of the wall was a wooden door with a beast face holding a ring.
Seeing the wooden door tightly closed.
Chen Sheng stopped.
Shen Ziming, however, passed him and went to the door.
He had no intention of knocking.
Putting both hands on the door, his muscles exerted a slight force. Rumble—
A dull sound came, and the wooden door was slowly pushed open.
Chen Sheng’s face was slightlv amazed.
The wooden door did not appear heavy, but it was not as it seemed from the sound.
“Let’s go.”
Shen Ziming turned his head and signaled Chen Sheng to follow.
They both stepped over the threshold.
The first thing Chen Sheng saw was an empty courtyard.
Several towering ancient trees were placed in the courtyard.
The mountain breeze blew gently, making the branches rustle.
The light filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting beautiful black-and-white shadows in the courtyard.
In the center of the courtyard, there was a stone table.
On the stone bench sat an elderly figure with white hair and a slightly hunched back.
His brows were furrowed, and he looked worried.
His gaze focused on the unfinished go game on the table, seemingly pondering a solution.
Although he looked ordinary, he carried an inexplicable, elusive temperament.
Just sitting there, he seemed to merge with the surroundings, not appearing out of place.
Chen Sheng activated his Eye of True View, ready to examine the other’s attributes.
[ Sun Yihe ]
[ Strength: ? ]
[ Agility: ? ]
[ Constitution: ? ]
The panel Chen Sheng saw, besides the name, all other information were question marks.
This made Chen Sheng puzzled.
Based on the situations he had recently encountered.
When facing attributes extremely powerful, at least twice or more of Chen Sheng’s, the Eye of True View would usually display a panel with a large number of question marks.
And when facing those with authority, such as the earlier Shen Ziming and respected elders, the Eye of True View would directly give a single question mark.
He originally thought,
That strong existences like committee members of the martial art association would have an incalculable share of authority.
But now,
He could see a complete attribute panel from Sun Yihe, rather than just a simple question mark.
Could it be that Sun Yihe never had authority, but was just purely strong in body?
Or could it be,
His estimation of the Eye of True View was incorrect?
Chen Sheng was at a loss.
And the situation in front of him did not allow him to think much.
“Elder Sun, junior Chen Sheng has come to visit.”
Chen Sheng stepped forward and saluted Sun Yihe.
No matter whether the other party was willing to let the Eagle Body Sect become an affiliate sect purely to disgust the Power Sect or for some other reason.
As a senior, he deserved this salute from Chen Sheng.
However ,
Sun Yihe seemed not to have heard it and did not respond at all.
He just stared at the chess game in front of him with a worried look, making ‘tsk’ or hissing noises from time to time.
“Master!”
Shen Ziming behind him shouted loudly, trying to wake up Sun Yihe.
But it was useless.
Seeing this,
He came to Chen Sheng’s side, his face carrying a trace of apology.
“I’m sorry, you wait a moment.”
Shen Ziming quickly approached the stone table.
He slowly raised his palms, his eyes fierce. Then,
The palm cut through the air and fell heavily.
It seemed as if it was about to land on the chessboard.
The next second.
Whoosh!
Chen Sheng’s pupils dilated slightly.
He hadn’t even seen Sun Yihe’s movement.
He only felt a blur before his eyes.
And Shen Ziming’s palm was caught in an instant.
“What are you doing?
He looked up at Shen Ziming, his face puzzled.
“Who are you?”
“I’m your disciple.”
Shen Ziming looked helpless.
“What? Zhu Di?” “How come it’s a foreign devil’s name.” “Your disciple!!!”
Shen Ziming yelled into Sun Yihe’s ears.
“Oh, oh, oh, my disciple.”
“My disciple…”
Sun Yihe mumbled to himself, repeating this sentence over and over.
During this process,
His clouded eyes gradually cleared.
What is going on?
Chen Sheng was puzzled.
Could Sun Yihe have dementia?
That would be too absurd. Just as Chen Sheng was thinking, “Are you Chen Sheng?”
Sun Yihe’s voice rang out again. Compared to his previous confusion and hoarseness,
Now, his voice was full of power.
“It is the junior.”
Chen Sheng followed the sound and saluted again. As soon as the words fell,
He suddenly felt a scrutinizing gaze sweep over him.
Chen Sheng slowly stood up and looked at Sun Yihe.
He no longer had that demented look from before and was now examining him with a sharp gaze.
“Yes.”
“Interesting.”
The corner of Sun Yihe’s mouth curled up slightly.
It seemed that his eyes could see through Chen Sheng’s body to the secrets hidden in his heart.
“Since Xiao Ming is willing to trust you, I won’t ask too many questions.”
“Those wolf-hearted brats from the Power Sect deserved to die.”
“Heroes have always committed crimes with martial arts, and this has not changed in thousands of years.”
“I’m not a pedantic person; I will not tell you to abide by the law and be a good citizen. ”
“Or, tell you that you must wait until someone puts a knife on your neck before you choose to fight back.”
“But remember, keep to your bottom line and stick to your position.”
During the conversation,
Sun Yihe’s gaze was burning.
Though the words were not all spoken, Chen Sheng already understood the other’s meaning.
“Elder, please rest assured.”
He didn’t say anything more, just saluted again.
Seeing this,
Sun Yihe didn’t say anything more.
