Chapter 684 Palace Master (Update 1)
A full minute passed before Xie Xihe suppressed the shock in his heart and asked Fu Yunting, "Have you checked?"
Fu Yunting also came to guard the hall this time. With Xie Xihe around, his workload was reduced a lot. He noticed it while strolling around, but didn't have time to check it out.
"Not yet," Fu Yunting said, "the controls are too strict, making it difficult to investigate."
Xie Xihe glanced around, and although she couldn't see anything, she knew that wherever she could see was under close surveillance, including where they were standing at the moment, which could not escape the surveillance of the Guardian Hall.
She didn't ask any more questions, just said: "We are going out for a day, we will talk when we come back."
Just then, Sheng Yunzhou called for help, so Xie Xihe left with Sheng Shijing.
Fu Yunting and the other man did not stay long and soon left the building.
*
At the same time, on the main island guarding the temple.
The tightly closed door of the hall opened, and in the darkness, an old man with white hair and beard, but a straight back, walked out of the hall.
He stood at the top of the long jade steps with his hands behind his back, gazing into the unknown distance, wondering what he was thinking.
He didn't know how much time passed in the darkness until the distant sky showed a faint paleness. He then withdrew his gaze and asked in a calm voice, "Any news?"
A middle-aged man in a short cotton shirt walked out from the shadows not far away, bowed slightly to the old man, and then stood up and replied, "I found the young lady."
The old man's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, his eyes like arrows: "Where is the person?"
"They were guarding the palace two hours ago and have left now," the middle-aged man replied. "Master Mo and Master Fu are also guarding the palace. Would you like to meet them, sir?"
The old man was stunned for a moment: "Are you all here to protect the temple?"
"Yes," the middle-aged man replied, and recounted the story of the Future Base and the Guardian Hall's collaboration in developing the Star Core. "At first, only Young Master Fu came here, and he's been here for nearly half a year."
"The project has entered its final stages and has encountered some difficulties, so Master Fu invited Miss here for three days."
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man felt a sharp pain in his buttocks. Before he could react, he fell flat on his face. His teeth hit the hard marble, causing him a piercing pain.
His face instantly turned bitter: "Sir..."
But the old man was no longer as calm as before, and his face was full of anger and frustration.
Hearing this, instead of calming down, he fiercely kicked the middle-aged man again and shouted, "They arrived three days ago and you're just telling me now! Have you been eating shit these past three days? Even eating shit has its own time, but you're so busy that you don't even have time to come over and say a word to me?!"
The middle-aged man Ying Shou: "..."
It is said that one should cultivate one's character and temperament. His master has been in seclusion all year round to recuperate, so why doesn't his temper improve?
This guy keeps talking about eating shit, does he still have any dignity as the palace master?
Ying Shou knew that the old man's temper had already risen, and he didn't dare to say that he was the one who said that this retreat was of vital importance and that he should not be disturbed no matter what happened. He nodded submissively and said, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault. Please calm down, sir."
"Didn't you say that anger makes you old quickly? You're going to see the young lady soon, so you need to calm down and cultivate your character, otherwise the young lady might not recognize you."
Ying Kui glanced at him sideways: "Are you saying I'm old?"
Ying Shou: "...That's not what I meant."
Ying Kui chuckled: "That's what you meant!"
That was true, but he still straightened his clothes. When he looked up again, his anger had subsided and he returned to his previous calm and relaxed demeanor. "Tell me what you found out."
That's a lot.
Ying Shou rolled up from the ground, set up the tables and chairs, served tea and water, and placed melon seeds, fruits and snacks on the table, and first settled the old man.
“Bang!”
Ying Shou clapped his hands together with a gavel that appeared out of nowhere, startling Ying Kui so much that he almost choked on his melon seeds. Just as he was about to start scolding, he cleared his throat and started talking: "Take the Xie family in Kyoto for example. The head of the family, Xie Bowen, has an old daughter who is taciturn and not good at speaking. She is a big joke in Kyoto..."
Ying Kui paused as he was about to say something and stared at Ying Shou in front of him in amazement.
No, he has only been in seclusion for more than three years. How come this old brat has even learned storytelling?
You know what, it sounds quite plausible!
Ying Kui had been guarding the palace for the past few years and had no chance to go out. He didn't remember much about what was happening in the outside world, so he listened with great interest.
While cracking melon seeds and eating snacks, he made comments from time to time and forgot that the protagonist of the story was his own little kid.
When Taishi Su and the others heard the news that their Palace Master had come out of retreat, this was what they saw. They immediately said, "..."
No, what does this have to do with anything?
*
Xie Xihe had no idea what happened in the Guardian Hall. After Sheng Shijing hung up Sheng Yunzhou's call for help, he took Xie Xihe and left the Guardian Hall.
But he stopped just as he walked out of the protection area of the palace.
Xie Xihe looked at the man who not only didn't leave but also picked her up horizontally, with a look of bewilderment on her face. She poked his chest and asked, "What are you doing?"
Sheng Shijing looked down at her: "Don't you want to know how I left Tiso without being discovered by Sheng Zhichen?"
Xie Xihe's heart moved and he looked at him with bright eyes.
Sheng Shijing's lips curled up into a smile, and he couldn't help but kiss her eyes. When he raised his head, there was a one-meter-round black hole in front of them. Sheng Shijing walked in.
After a dizzy spell, when Xie Xihe opened his eyes again, the scene around him had completely changed.
She jumped off Sheng Shijing and asked in surprise, "The power of space?"
Sheng Shijing nodded: "Since awakening Kyungjun's memories, Kyungjun's power has also slowly awakened. Although it is still a long way from complete recovery, it is enough for the time being."
Kyung-gyun is the son of the God of Space and the God of Earth, and inherited the power of space and earth from them.
Although it is much weaker than his own Tiansha power, it is definitely not weak.
This is a pleasant surprise.
There was a smile in Xie Xihe's eyes, but the next moment, she thought of something and her expression instantly changed.
"Since the power of space and the power of earth have awakened, what about the power of the Heavenly Evil?" She came out of Sheng Shijing's arms, staring at him intently. "Has the power of the Heavenly Evil also awakened?"
Sheng Shijing smiled and did not hide it from her: "Yes, the power of Tiansha has also awakened."
Xie Xihe's gaze paused, his eyes filled with solemnity.
