Chapter 522 Extra Chapter: Nothingness Left (Part 10)
The monks at Lianhua Temple were thrilled upon hearing the news.
"Junior Brother Liaowu is truly remarkable; he was actually invited to the capital by the Emperor!"
"What an honor! Only the Venerable Xuanzang of yesteryear received such treatment, didn't he? Junior Brother Liaowu is indeed destined to become a great monk!"
"I wonder how Senior Brother Liaowu is feeling right now!"
"Of course we're happy and excited! Need I say more? Even we're this excited, let alone Fifth Senior Brother."
......
Hearing the excited chatter of the crowd, Liao Kong's face turned extremely ugly, and his hands clenched into fists.
Seeing his appearance, his fellow disciples couldn't help but feel surprised and came over to ask, "Junior Brother Liaokong, what's wrong with you?"
"Exactly, your complexion is so bad, could it be that you've caught a cold?"
Liao Kong didn't deny it, just mumbled a few words, and walked out with his eyelids slightly lowered.
On his way out, he ran into the abbot. Seeing his solemn expression, the abbot couldn't help but ask, "Liaokong, what's wrong with you?"
Liao Kong paused slightly. "Master, I am not feeling well and would like to go down the mountain."
The abbot was about to say that the temple also had medicinal herbs, but seeing Liaokong's expression, he didn't say it. "Go ahead, be careful on the way."
Liao Kong nodded, and then, without exchanging more pleasantries with the abbot as before, he left directly.
Watching Liaokong stride down the mountain without looking back, the abbot clasped his hands together and sighed softly, "It's fate..."
Liao Kong descended the mountain until he reached a place where no one could see him. Without hesitation, he used his lightness skill to fly down the mountain.
Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, he went directly to a teahouse and gently tapped on the wooden plank, saying, "Shopkeeper, a guest has arrived."
The waiter inside immediately came out to greet us, "Honored guest, please come this way."
Liao Kong followed the waiter into the teahouse. As soon as he entered, the waiter knelt respectfully in front of him.
"Young Master, I have been waiting here for quite some time..."
Looking at Feiying kneeling in front of him, Liaokong reached out and helped him up. "The contract of servitude has been destroyed. I am no longer your young master, so don't try this trick again."
Flying Eagle looked at him excitedly, "Young Master saved my life. As long as I am Young Master's guard, I will always be Young Master's guard. I would rather die than regret it!"
Although these weren't the words Liao Kong wanted to hear, he still felt a sliver of comfort. "You're still so stubborn..."
Flying Eagle was a child whom Liao Kong rescued from a refugee camp during a chance trip when he was a child.
That was the first time Liao Kong had ever seen such a horrific scene. On the pile of corpses that had formed a small mountain, several crows with eerie cries were perched.
The whole scene looks eerie and desolate, sending chills down your spine.
Liao Kong had just glanced at the body and was urging his servants to leave quickly, but before he left, he heard a faint cry for help coming from the pile of corpses.
Liao Kong was greatly shocked and immediately ordered his servants to dig open the pile of corpses, where they found the person who was still alive.
It was a little child who had been starved to the point of being deformed. Looking at him, Liao Kong couldn't help but shudder.
He had never seen a child so thin!
He was no longer skin and bones; he looked like a thin sheet of paper pasted onto a bamboo frame.
Liao Kong spent a great deal of effort to save that child from the brink of death, and that child was Flying Eagle.
