Nightfall

The Buddha Among Men

There was a broken arm on the ground. The bronze bell that was left behind by the Buddha slowly rolled on the ground, into the pool of blood and stopped. The colors of the red fresh blood and the yellow bronze bell came together, giving an eerie effect.

With two thunder-like shots, Ning Que used up quite a lot of cultivation as he looked a little pale. His bow aimed precisely at Cheng Ziqing who was sitting under the stone statue. He confirmed that this Sword Garret professional wasn’t a threat to him and hence, didn’t shoot out another arrow. At this moment, every iron arrow was incredibly precious to him.

A simple shot had caused significant injuries to the second most important figure in the Sword Garret. He was satisfied with the results but he wouldn’t show any contempt for the Sword garret. He clearly knew that if it wasn’t for Mo Shanshan’s help, he wouldn’t be able to do it.

No matter how precious the Natal Sword was, it wasn’t a real life object at the end of the day. Ning Que could understand this and he made a decision during battle without hesitation. However, not many cultivators could understand a thing in such a short period of time. Hence, Cheng Ziqing’s previous battle performance had left him impressed and even shocked. It seemed like the legendary Sword Sage wasn’t just a person with a name.

All was silent within the hall.

Ning Que was surprised by Cheng Ziqing’s performance during the battle but he wasn’t aware that his and Mo Shanshan’s performance had left everyone speechless: both him and the Calligraphy Addict were already in the Knowing Destiny State, but even so, they were a new generation of cultivators and had only entered the Knowing Destiny state a few months or even a few days ago. How could they easily defeat a famous swordsman from the Sword Garret and even severely injure a monk from the Xuankong Temple?

It was because the Calligraphy Addict was already a Divine Talisman Master. A Divine Talisman Master could basically squash all the professionals that were at the Knowing Destiny State and Ning Que also had his Primordial Thirteen Arrows that could cross states. Moreover, the two of them had formed a wordless chemistry in the Wilderness, thus an impossible ending had long been fated.

Not everyone understood the links in this battle but everyone saw the Calligraphy Addict attacking. Quni Madi looked at Mo Shanshan and cursed, “You will let the great river be destroyed with the whole world!”

Mo Shanshan attacked with her most powerful divine talisman; the psyche power used was tremendous and upon hearing Quni Madi’s words and thinking about the world being destroyed, her body started trembling and her face turned paler.

However, looking at Sangsang on Ning Que’s back, carrying the black umbrella and bathed in a weak Light of Buddha, her expression returned to normal. She knew that in the end, she wouldn’t regret it.

Outside the quiet hall, a heavy breathing noise sounded and everyone turned to look. The big black horse was soaked and he was carrying a heavy carriage. Behind the wheels were two wheel tracks etched in the stone.

Ning Que carried Sangsang towards the black carriage.

The Light of Buddha, of golden hue and resemblance to jade immediately enveloped the entire black carriage.

The big black horse was incredibly afraid and thought that he must be suffering retribution for not being a vegetarian for the past few days.

How would Ning Que know what this foolish fellow was thinking as he pressed his right arm against the ice-cold carriage walls and activated the talisman array. He then kicked the big black horse on his ass and shouted, “Are you still not leaving?”
