#333 - The right person
"Who?"
Xu Chengxian's eyes snapped open.
He had known all along that someone was following him on the way back.
Moreover, the other party's cultivation strength was very high.
But so what?
No matter what the purpose of this guy was, he shouldn't have allowed him to return.
Now that the clone and the main body were together, even the worst-case scenario was just exposing his trump card, swallowing the clone into his belly, and then forcibly breaking out of the Sea Soul Gate.
Then, as long as he hid in the Governor's mansion, the other party would have no way to deal with him unless they were a Nascent Soul cultivator.
There were no great cultivators in Pan Anshou's mansion, but he had the Governor's seal of Xuzhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty in his hand.
"At that time, no one should be foolish enough to fight against the national fortune dragon energy of the Emperor, right?"
After all, what he stole was something from the Bodhi Temple, not the Sea Soul Gate's own treasure.
It wasn't worth it.
Just like when the Bodhi Temple lost the Qiankun Cauldron, it's been so long, and they still haven't come to trouble him, right?
It's obvious that they don't care much about things that aren't their own.
Of course, it's also possible that they don't lack these things.
"Then they must be rich enough," Xu Chengxian thought to himself, pocketing both items without any politeness.
Just right, it can be used to help his particularly poor, almost penniless little snake.
As his thoughts flashed, a young cultivator appeared on the windowsill in a flash.
"It's me."
The visitor wore a jade crown and a green robe.
His temperament was somewhat similar to Ling Yunzi.
His age also seemed to be similar.
"Who are you?" Xu Chengxian asked, "Why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night? What are you doing in my room?"
"...Huh?"
"Why don't you use the door and come through the window? What, are you here to be a thief?" Xu Chengxian asked, "That's a pity, I'm just a guest here too, you've come to the wrong place."
"...Heh." The visitor raised an eyebrow and restrained his smile, "Boy, I advise you to be smart."
The aura on his body pressed towards Xu Chengxian as he spoke.
Then, in an instant, it was completely retracted.
"Golden Core Realm?" A look of panic appeared on Xu Chengxian's face, "Are you the Sect Leader of the Sea Soul Gate?"
After speaking, he added, "No! No! Didn't they say that the Sect Leader of the Sea Soul Gate wasn't in the resident?"
Xu Chengxian instantly understood that the other party must have brought a treasure that concealed his aura.
Otherwise, with his divine sense, he shouldn't have been unable to sense it.
"If I had known that your strength was so strong, I wouldn't have pretended!" he couldn't help but curse.
He should have run away immediately!
But it wasn't too late to run now.
His divine sense returning to the main body to break through, the other party couldn't stop him.
So, run or not run?
Xu Chengxian thought, and couldn't help but put his hand on his waist.
If he ran, his demon race identity might be seen through.
If he didn't run, the other party's purpose was unknown, and his cultivation was strong, which was very dangerous.
Wait a little longer.
This guy didn't immediately capture him, maybe…
"It's good that you know." At this time, the visitor smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not the Sect Leader of the Sea Soul Gate, and I'm not here to catch a thief either."
"Then how should I address you, sir?"
"Amitabha, he is Wang Shanlu of the Jade Mountain Sect." A voice came from outside the house.
Then, with a creak.
A young and handsome monk in a plain monk's robe appeared on another windowsill.
Then he sat down cross-legged.
Xu Chengxian: "…"
Wow!
Why is it always a Taoist and a Buddhist?
Do you like to team up to farm monsters!
"Chengji, why do you reveal my secrets as soon as you open your mouth? That's not righteous," Wang Shanlu snorted, "Boy, this monk is from the Bodhi Temple, you should be careful."
Xu Chengxian certainly knew what he meant.
His 'snake pet' little snake, had just stolen the relic from the Bodhi Temple.
"Amitabha." Monk Chengji smiled slightly, "Benefactor Xu may not know, this Jade Mountain Sect is the upper sect behind the Sea Soul Gate."
Xu Chengxian: "…Hehe."
Very good.
Although he had just stolen the relic from the Bodhi Temple, he had stolen it from the Sea Soul Gate's treasure house.
And he committed the crime under the eyes of the other party.
Also, the Sea Soul Gate couldn't possibly have a treasure like the Qiankun Cauldron.
It must be from the Jade Mountain Sect.
And this treasure was still on the altar of the White Lady Temple at this moment.
So, two creditor families blocked the door.
Great, that's great.
The most exciting thing was that, judging from the casual attitude of these two people, he knew that they were very familiar with each other.
It was hard to say whether they were friends or enemies, but at least he could know one thing, that was, this Chengji, who had also concealed his aura, had a cultivation base not much different from Wang Shanlu.
This kind of equal interaction only occurs between people of comparable strength!
Xu Chengxian grinned inwardly.
That is to say.
Two Golden Core stage, to be precise, two late stage Golden Core, blocked him in the house.
Of course, the good news was that, judging from the posture of these two, it was obvious that their hostility was not strong.
That meant they had other plans.
"Two senior brothers, if you have something you want me to do, just say it directly," Xu Chengxian said.
Since that was the case, he decided to use his racial talent.
To be able to bend and stretch!
"Haha! You're on the right track!" Wang Shanlu clapped his hands and smiled, "But there's no hurry to talk about what we want you to do, let us see first, whether your snake pet still listens to your orders."
In fact, according to the cultivation realm, Xu Chengxian was a big realm behind them, and should call them Martial Uncle.
However, neither of them cared, and instead looked at his waist.
The motionless little snake.
"…Okay." Xu Chengxian resisted showing any strange expression.
Good fellow, this is my main body, how can it not listen to my orders?
Wouldn't that be the end?
After speaking, his mind moved.
"Hiss hiss~"
In the next instant, the little snake on his waist raised its head and chest.
It hissed at Wang Shanlu and Chengji respectively, and nodded.
"Okay, Little Hua." Xu Chengxian patted the snake's head.
Then he took the opportunity to take the main body back to his waist, and explained to the two: "Little Hua is too full, and doesn't like to move."
He couldn't move too much.
If he moved too much, it would be easy to reveal his secrets.
His divine sense couldn't support it for too long.
"…Too full?" A crack appeared on Chengji's calm face, "You said, it's refining that relic?"
"Yes." Xu Chengxian nodded.
There was no point in lying at this time.
Once a lie was exposed, it would not be easy to create a trustworthy foundation again.
"I know your snake pet is powerful, but I'm a little surprised that it can still listen to you now," Wang Shanlu also said.
"Who is the master behind you?" Chengji asked with a frown, "The method of controlling spirit beasts can actually resist the influence of the Buddhist supernatural powers?"
"…Can't say." Xu Chengxian lowered his eyes, "It can't be said."
No wonder they were so polite, it turned out to be because of the 'power' behind him.
Then it seemed that the Bodhi Temple hadn't taken any action all along, because they hadn't figured out his origin, so they didn't dare to act rashly?
That's right, the stronger the power he showed, the greater the power behind him.
Tsk.
This was really a beautiful misunderstanding.
"You didn't deny it, so to speak, your snake pet is indeed resisting my Buddhist supernatural powers?" Chengji raised an eyebrow.
"Is senior brother talking about Buddhist chants?" Xu Chengxian deliberately added to his own strength, "Or a thought from the Bodhisattva?"
"Ha!" Wang Shanlu laughed when he heard this, "Junior brother's beast control technique is really powerful!"
"It's not mine." Xu Chengxian shook his head, "Little Hua's sea of consciousness has a treasure left by my elders."
"So that's how it is." Chengji also smiled, "Then it seems that we have found the right candidate, senior brother Shanlu."
