77: Chapter 77: Say Not Go and Not Go!
Zhao Siyang brought Zhang San back to the dilapidated temple where they had rested before and found that it was now completely empty.
Song Dingbo and Wang Dada had disappeared without a trace, but seeing that even the sheep were gone, it was presud that the two n had chosen to leave.
However, considering that Song Dingbo knew the Water Spirit Ghost Suppression Technique, there was no need for concern.
In Zhang San’s eyes, Third Miss Gan had used their distraction to escape pursuit; now that the opportunity was right, she had decided to make her getaway.
Zhang San sat down and began to sense the Wood Movent Qi around him through the Wood Series Technique, thereby entering into the cultivation stage of the Five Emperors’ Proper Position.
What Zhang San had not anticipated was that as he beca aware, he realized that the Wood Movent Qi around him was also different.
So trees were still alive but were quickly withering and dying.
There were others that were already dead, yet sohow contained signs of life within them.
The Wood Movent Qi wasn’t rely a single force; it was divided into Yin and Yang, two distinct types of energy.
If Qi itself could be differentiated into Yin and Yang, then wasn’t it quite normal for the Power of the Five Elents to be divided into Yin and Yang as well?
Therefore, Zhang San began to try to absorb the faint Wood Movent Qi around him, integrating it into his body to form two streams of the Five Elents’ Power alongside his True Core.
These forces moved in a counterclockwise direction to counteract the clockwise-spinning drift of the True Core.
Owing to the Tyrant Body Three Pills Technique, Zhang San was soon able to absorb the Wood Movent Qi on his own.
It was as if Zhang San had set up a program with the Tyrant Body Three Pills Technique and then simply let the program run by itself.
Having so free ti, Zhang San glanced at Zhao Siyang beside him and asked, “We made quite a commotion when we acted just now, and those chasing us must surely know our location.
Perhaps Third Miss Gan left because she realized this.”
Zhao Siyang nodded slightly.
“Are you sad that she left?”
Zhao Siyang shook his head.
Zhang San thought Zhao Siyang was being stubborn and was just about to offer so words of comfort when he heard Zhao Siyang speak first, “Originally, I thought I would be sad.
When I left this place, I guessed that she would eventually leave on her own.”
“Even, I’ve long known that she really just wanted to find a scapegoat, to have fend off the pursuers for her.”
“But I kept thinking that when two people co together, they develop feelings for each other.
In that way…”
“When she left, I would be sad.”
Zhang San was bewildered when he heard this.
You want to develop feelings just to be sad?
What kind of masochistic behavior is this?
“But now I’m not sad at all, not even as sad as when I saw Wang Dada’s nephew die.”
“Tell , is it because I truly have no heart?”
Zhang San looked at Zhao Siyang, who appeared to be seriously pondering the question, with a bewildered expression.
“You’re not heartless.”
Zhao Siyang let out a sigh of relief, feeling much comforted by the response, even though it seed like just a consolation.
“You’re sick!
Seriously sick!”
At that mont, Zhang San noticed a shadow slipping out from beneath him.
It was Shadow!
During this ti, Zhang San himself had forgotten about the Shadow that was always there, protecting him.
Since Shadow was mute and seldom communicated, Zhang San had gradually forgotten about its presence.
Seeing Shadow depart, Zhang San understood that people from the Town Martial Office must be on their way.
At the very least, Bai Yucheng was nearby.
Making use of the Wood Movent Qi, Zhang San let a leaf fall upon Shadow, which was then torn away by the wind.
Half of the leaf remained on Shadow, while the other half landed in the palm of his hand and was rolled up and placed into his ear.
Though eavesdropping was sowhat unethical, as long as he didn’t speak of it, no one would know he had listened in.
If no one knew, then naturally it did not pertain to the matters of morality.
Indeed, it wasn’t long before Zhang San heard Bai Yucheng’s voice.
“Has he arrived?”
“Officer, I’ve been covertly observing Zhang San lately, and this man toward his friends…”
Zhang San prepared himself to hear words of praise.
“Hypocritical, two-faced, and without restraint in backstabbing, too much on the side of the Demon Path!”
“Moreover, this person’s strength has increased very rapidly, and he’s highly talented in cultivation!
If he’s a villain, he should be eradicated early on!”
Zhang San was not pleased with this!
Just as he was about to curse, he suddenly realized, wasn’t Shadow supposed to be mute?
Why was she speaking now?
And from the voice, it was a woman.
Pretending to be mute in front of and sneaking peeks all day, then running off to snitch to my boss!
You’re the kind that we would have dragged into the boys’ bathroom and blasted with the faucet back in elentary school!
Also, what do you an ‘if he’s a villain’?
I am an Apprentice Warrior of the Town Martial Office; how could I possibly be a villain?!
What the hell are you yapping about?
At that mont, Bai Yucheng slowly started to speak.
“Zhang San is, after all, currently a mber of our Town Martial Office.”
Zhang San’s lips curled into a smile.
Still, it’s my thoughtful superior who defends .
After all these years, I haven’t seen a better boss than Bai Yucheng!
Just as Zhang San was feeling quite pleased with himself, he heard Bai Yucheng continue.
“Although Zhang San was once a mber of the Demon Sect, he was ultimately changed by our Town Martial Office’s Soul Cleansing Technique.
Just treat him as a mber of our Town Martial Office for now.
However, Zhang San is involved in a very important plan of the Town Martial Office, so you must keep this matter secret, understand?”
What Bai Yucheng and Shadow discussed next, Zhang San could no longer hear.
Because right now, Zhang San’s head was buzzing.
I’ve been leading the team on missions in the Town Martial Office, working hard every day, only to find out that I am actually a mber of the Demon Sect?
At that mont, Zhang San felt as if struck by a bolt from the blue.
After his brain crashed for a mont, his ability to think clearly gradually returned.
Piecing together why his forr self was so weak yet still joined the Town Martial Office, Zhang San realized everything made sense.
After all, he wasn’t really a mber of the Town Martial Office; naturally, he couldn’t et their requirents.
Zhang San even figured out why his twelve primary ridians and the Eight Extraordinary ridians were open.
It wasn’t because he was so kind of genius; rather, his previous self had been through this ordeal, and perhaps after death, his True Core was gone, leaving his ridians open, but with little Qi in his body.
No wonder they had him lead the team; Zhang San originally thought his superiors appreciated him.
But now he realized, it was appreciation my ass!
Because he was from the Heavenly Punishnt Sect, having him lead the team ensured that if anyone who knew about the Heavenly Punishnt Sect saw him, they wouldn’t suspect a thing!
And here I was, eagerly waiting for the Town Martial Office’s rescue in the Ghost Domain.
Turns out it’s a xuanhuan version of Infernal Affairs!
At this ti, Zhao Siyang, looking at Zhang San’s frowning face, suddenly realized that although he and Third Miss Gan didn’t have much of a relationship, he had established a very good friendship with Zhang San on this journey.
Perhaps he should try driving him away?
Maybe then he would be heartbroken and be able to feel his own heart.
“Zhang San, why don’t you just go?”
Zhang San, who snapped back to his senses, imdiately shook his head: “I won’t leave.”
“Leave!”
“I won’t!
I’m going to follow you!”
“Why do you want to follow ?”
“No reason, we’re brothers, right?
You take with you on the run!”
Zhao Siyang wore a puzzled expression, I admit you and I are friends, capturing you as a hostage was wrong of .
But that doesn’t an you can cling to !
