Chapter 337 - Collapse

“Master Xin Chi, are you sure you are right this time?”

While the Surveillance Bureau would not hesitate to kill innocents for the sake of their missions, Li Huowang still couldn’t stomach the fact that he had to kill innocents for no reason.

When Li Huowang asked that question, the woman’s body shrank until only her clothes were left.

“Er Jiu! Why did you not listen to me?”

Li Huowang scoffed when he saw Xin Chi becoming angry, his eyes wide like an Arhat. Then, he walked over to where the clothes were and stabbed his sword into the cushion. A puppy-like cry was heard as blood flowed from the cushion.

The girl had not run away. Instead, she had shrunk and flattened herself to hide in the cushion.

“Master Xin Chi, if you were this accurate all the time, then I wouldn’t have to hesitate at all.”

Li Huowang did not want to become a weapon for others who killed innocent people, especially if he was being ordered by someone disgusting.

Sensing that the two of them were about to erupt into open hostilities, Ji Xiang stepped in. “Enough! I’m not dead yet. You had better be good! Don’t forget why I called you here!”

Even though Ji Xiang was still smiling, both Li Huowang and Xin Chi knew that Ji Xiang was not someone to be trifled with. Thus, both of them chose to remain silent after that warning.

Time slowly passed and they circled around the entire temple. Except for that member of the Sitting Oblivion Dao that Li Huowang had killed, they found no one else even after an entire hour.

Thus, there were only two possibilities: either the Sitting Oblivion Dao had run away, or they were hiding themselves.

Still, even though they hadn’t had any results in so long, Ji Xiang was not the slightest bit anxious, and was even getting more and more excited.

This only further reinforced Li Huowang’s idea that there was another reason behind why Ji Xiang had come to Buddha’s Skeleton Temple.

When they once again entered the palace with the dried corpse, Ji Xiang’s face suddenly lit up with joy. At the same time, his fingers on the abacus started moving so fast that they left behind after-images. Sparks flew from the golden abacus.

“Come quick!” called out Ji Xiang as he stepped on the marble floor in a complicated pattern. After he circled the place three times, one of the Bodhisattva motifs on a pillar started moving on its own.

At this point, Li Huowang was sure.

While the two of them were talking, someone else walked out from the dust cloud. It was Xin Chi with his tall frame.

As soon as he saw Li Huowang and Tuoba Danqing, Xin Chi’s face became serious. Then, he pointed with his massive finger at Li Huowang. At the same time, Tuoba Danqing heard something in his mind and instantly retreated away from Li Huowang.

As the three of them stood apart from each other, Xin Chi and Tuoba Danqing stared at Li Huowang.

Li Huowang immediately realized what was going on. Xin Chi had told Tuoba Danqing something. Thus, Li Huoawng immediately shouted at Tuoba Danqing before any of them could act, “Senior Tuoba, you can suspect that I’m from the Sitting Oblivion Dao, but why aren’t you suspecting that Xin Chi might be the fake one?”

“Stop lying. The Sitting Oblivion Dao doesn’t know his telepathy.” At this moment, Tuoba Danqing’s usual friendly gaze was beyond cold.

“They don’t know his telepathy? They can steal any power easily!” said Li Huowang as he unsheathed his sword.

“We knew that you would say this, but Lord Ji Xiang told us before that even if it was Fa Cai herself, she too would need to spend at least six hours to learn Xin Chi’s telepathy. Thus, he is real and you are fake,” concluded Tuoba Danqing.

Faced with their accusations, Li Huowang got angrier and angrier.

“He’s visibly fake!” shouted Li Huowang as he pointed at Xin Chi.

However, at that moment, a familiar voice rang out inside his mind. It was Xin Chi’s telepathy. “No, I am real. I also know that you are real, but right now, my voice is the truth. If I say that you are fake, then you are fake.”

“What?!” Li Huowang’s eyes were wide with shock. He could not believe what Xin Chi was saying! He had thought of many possibilities before this, but he had never thought about his own allies betraying him.

“Are you crazy? You are accusing me and betraying us just because of that incident from earlier? Just because I challenged your authority?” questioned Li Huowang.

Xin Chi smiled for a brief moment before once again becoming serious. “That’s right. I’m a petty person.”

Having said that, he and Tuoba Danqing started running toward Li Huowang.

“You crazy fucker!” Li Huowang roared as he directly slashed toward Xin Chi.

However, as he got closer, something metallic flew out from the dust cloud, aiming for Li Huowang’s neck!

It was a rusted short blade, and the one behind it was Hong Da.

At that moment, Li Huowang was surrounded by three people.

What is happening? Did they find out my identity? Is this a trap for me?!
