Chapter 279 The Price of Deception



"You and I have known what he wants since the beginning. It's not surprising that so many storytellers suddenly appear." Song Yu's gaze remained on Xu Tianze's hair.

The news that the wise king died and Xu Tianze turned white overnight had already spread throughout the country. Naturally, he had heard the news, but hearing and seeing are two different things.

When I first heard about it, I was just shocked. But when I saw the person coming, the pain in my heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, and every inch of my heart was dripping with blood.

"This is not the capital city for you, leave." Song Yu glanced downstairs.

He knew what Long Muse wanted, and he also knew what Xu Tianze wanted to do now. Otherwise, why did the storyteller keep talking about Long Muse and the Divine Doctor Valley?

How could the news about Xu Tianze and the virtuous king spread directly across the country? But for Xu Tianze, this was undoubtedly exposing his own scars.

"I was born in Shangjing City. I have lived here for half of my life. I will spend the rest of my life here too. Do you want to stop me?" Xu Tianze turned his head and looked at Song Yu with a smile.

Everyone here has his or her own pursuits: the listeners downstairs, the storyteller on the stage, him, and Song Yu.

But the difference between him and Song Yu is that he no longer has anything to worry about, while Song Yu still has things he cares about.

Song Yu looked at Xu Tianze for a long time without saying a word, and finally shook his head slowly. The calmer he was, the crazier he felt inside.

He had already seen the hysteria and desperate madness hidden beneath Xu Tianze's calmness.

"If I could really stop you, I wouldn't come to see you today." Song Yu was a little depressed.

It turned out that without realizing it, he no longer had the strength to match Ozawa. Or perhaps he was no match for Ozawa from the very beginning.

All along, it was just his wishful thinking.

Xu Tianze nodded and walked downstairs with Xue Wei. He had never hidden his whereabouts, so he was not surprised that Song Yu came to him.

However, Xu Tianze did not expect that the person who came to him first was not the Empress Long Qingyi, nor Long Muli who wanted to save his beloved, but Song Yu.

This made Xu Tianze feel more confident and made his actions at night smoother.

At night, although there are no believers praying in Xiangguo Temple during the day, the sound of chanting can still be heard, as if it is singing along with the chirping of cicadas in late summer.

"Let's go." Xu Tianze took a deep breath and walked directly towards the most secret courtyard in Xiangguo Temple.

However, he was so troubled that he didn't notice Xue Wei's hesitant look. It was not until he entered the courtyard and saw Xu An sitting cross-legged at the door that he realized what he had overlooked.

"Amitabha, nice to meet you, Mr. Xu. I wonder why you come to visit me so late at night." Xu An's face showed the attitude of a compassionate monk.

Seeing this, Xu Tianze just looked at Xu An carefully. Xu An now had the Buddha nature, and the aura of worldly contamination that he had previously had dissipated a lot.

Looking at it this way, it was as if he was a living Buddha. Xu Tianze understood that Yun's plan was very successful, because Xu An had now seen through the miasma and looked like a high monk who had attained enlightenment.

"If Le Yun can plot to make you a high monk, then he must also know the consequences of playing tricks on me for so many years?" Xu Tianze looked at Xu An meaningfully.

If Xu An really wants to cut off from the worldly affairs, it depends on whether Xu Tianze agrees. There are more than a thousand lives in Xiangguo Temple, so Xu An can do it without any burden.

Then he would help Xu An and see if Yun dared to gamble with him.

"Amitabha, the donor has fallen into a state of confusion, so wake up quickly." Xu An looked helpless, but still did not get up to make way for Xu Tianze.

After hearing this, Xu Tianze rolled his eyes. He walked up to Xu An and kicked him in the chest.

He was not in a good mood to bargain with Xu An here. He came here today just to kill someone, nothing else.

"Xu An, you have never been given a Dharma name. Can't you guess it?" Xu Tianze stepped forward and stepped on Xu An's face with a teasing look in his eyes.

However, Buddhism does not say that a Dharma name has not been bestowed for such a long time, especially since Xu An has been with Yun since he was a child.

After saying that, Xu Tianze didn't bother to pay attention to this nominal nephew. He simply gestured to Xue Wei to open the door and walk in.

After entering the house, Xu Tianze looked around the layout of the house. The bleached bedding, the paint-peeled wardrobe, the bronze mirror with a broken corner, and the lame stool all revealed the shabbyness of the house.

Xu Tianze nodded with satisfaction. The place chosen by Leyun for himself was not bad. It was just right for Leyun to die here.

Then he looked at Master Leyun who had been chanting and meditating there. Leyun seemed to be immersed in chanting and reciting Buddhist scriptures, and was not aware of Xu Tianze's arrival at all.

But Xu Tianze didn't care about Le Yun's condition at all, and he knew that Le Yun had expected him to come here a long time ago.

"Just kill him. I'm not interested in talking to him." Xu Tianze glanced at Le Yun and curled his lips.

"Wait a minute, don't you have anything to ask me?" Le Yun suddenly opened his eyes and broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

He was still thinking of bargaining with Xu Tianze, and then using the gift to express his regret, but he didn't expect Xu Tianze to play by his own rules.

But after he finished shouting, his heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect that because of the death of the virtuous king, Xu Tianze would be so sad that his black hair turned white.

The remaining half of the sentence was stuck in my throat and couldn't come out.

"If you don't want to, Xiangguo Temple will be completely destroyed tonight. This is the price you pay for deceiving me for Xu An." Xu Tianze blurted out without hesitation. Seeing Xu An limping in, he added the second half of the sentence.

He was not interested at first, but he suddenly thought of something very interesting and became interested again.

He wanted to see what kind of person Xu An thought his master Le Yun was. If his cognition was completely overturned, could this great monk still continue to be a great monk?

"What? What did you say?" Xu An raised his head suddenly when he heard Xu Tianze's words.

Then, seeing Xu Tianze's half-smile, he turned to look at Yun again, hoping to get what he wanted from Yun.

When Liao Yun saw Xu Tianze revealing the secret in front of his disciple, his face looked a little unnatural, especially when his disciple looked at him and wanted to confirm it with him.

"I asked Le Yun for the Longevity Pill three years ago, but Le Yun kept delaying it. The box you handed me some time ago should have contained the Longevity Pill."

"In the end, there was nothing left. Didn't you see that?"
