Chapter 348

Every face was filled with shock.

They remained stunned for a long time.

"This matter is settled. Return."

They watched the direction in which Xiao Sanxiao and Wu Ming departed.

Lian Huasheng said one sentence with a blank expression, then turned and vanished.

As for this.

The three Long Xiang Seng, not daring to breathe, exchanged glances.

They left with faces still pale from fright.

Deep within their hearts.

A tremendous pressure surged forth.

Those bystander martial artists might not understand.

But these three knew.

This so-called ordinary, unremarkable old man.

Was undoubtedly an utterly terrifying entity!!

Even.

His cultivation level was likely far above that of Lian Huasheng!

Otherwise,

Given Lian Huasheng's nature,

Plus the secret of Wu Ming's spiritual force containing the might of the Dao,

He would never have let the other go so easily!

Thus it is clear.

This old man is definitely not simple!!!

He is very likely an ancient monster who has been in seclusion for years in Yunzhou!!

Yuan Imperial Palace.

"What?!"

"He escaped?!"

"You all couldn't hold him?!"

"If this gets out, where will the dignity of Great Yuan lie?!"

Listening to Lian Huasheng's report,

Tie Muzhen's old face turned as black as a pot bottom.

His tone brimmed with anger and dissatisfaction.

"The other has powerful backing; my cultivation has not yet recovered—I am no match for him!"

"If I force the issue, the outcome will only be worse."

Lian Huasheng replied coolly.

His face showed neither sorrow nor joy.

But if one looked closely, one would surely notice.

Deep in his eyes,

A flicker of resentment and helplessness also passed!

What he resented was:

Don't be fooled by his polite words.

It was merely a face-saving excuse.

If I had truly refused,

He would have struck at once.

He pretended to be courteous,

But actually left me no choice!

How could this be accepted by one as proud and haughty as he?!

What he could not bear was:

Watching helplessly as the method to make him invincible vanish before his eyes.

He had not the slightest way to stop it.

This truly filled him with rage!

Circumstances overpower people.

Indeed, this was utterly true!!

Fortunately,

The only thing that brought him slight comfort was:

Though the other escaped,

At least he was still alive!

As long as he lived,

I still had a chance to find him!

It was at least a tiny bit of solace!

"How could he possibly be this strong?!"

"Do you know which region this person hails from?"

Hearing the explanation.

Tie Muzhen was startled in his heart.

He pressed on with a face full of astonishment.

Padmasambhava's true strength, after all, was—

He naturally knew it inside out.

Even the other party had lowered themselves to say so.

That meant the opponent's strength was absolutely no small matter!!

This immediately drew his attention.

If he could recruit such an existence under his banner.

Then the odds of future hegemony, wouldn't they rise by yet another notch?!

"No."

"The other party left no name behind."

"However, judging by his strength—"

"He must once have been a figure who shook all of Yunzhou in his day."

"If the Khan has the mind to, he may have the scouts over in Yunzhou keep a closer watch."

Padmasambhava shook his head and answered softly.

Not a trace of displeasure in his tone.

"Mm... that is as it should be."

"Today's matter, I daresay, has put the Living Buddha to some trouble."

"Later this Khan will send some spiritual medicines over."

"I hope the Living Buddha can recover his cultivation soon."

Tie Muzhen nodded thoughtfully.

He spoke with a warm, smiling concern.

"It's nothing—all for the sake of the Great Yuan."

Padmasambhava gave a faint reply.

He bowed slightly, then drifted away.
