Chapter 324.3: Have You Thought of Going Back?
But what cannot be denied was that these men possessed astounding powers.
Thinking about that, the black clothed Lian Shi turned to Lou Jun Yao and said: “In that case, I hope that you can help him. With help from a puppeteer, I believe the chances of success will be greatly increased.”
Lou Jun Yao’s face turned dark but a soft gentle palm then grasped the back of his hand all of a sudden. Qing Yu’s soothing voice sounded to say to him. “Ah Yao, don’t force yourself.”
Lou Jun Yao looked taken aback, seemingly rather surprised. “Don’t you wish for me to help him…..”
Although he might not know as much as Qing Yu in certain things, he could still sense that the lass felt a sliver of sympathy for the man. When she heard that there might be a way to bring the man back to life, the expression on her face had been one of delight.
Seeing that the man was looking a little puzzled, Qing Yu lifted the corners of her lips and said: “I do. But if you come to fall into any harm because of that, I would rather not.”
Lou Jun Yao understood what she meant and his countenance softened as he asked in a low voice: “Are you worrying about me?”
“Mm.” Qing Yu nodded her head slightly. “Your safety is paramount.”
Afterall, she had not forgotten how delicate and precious this particular person’s body was, when the slightest ailment or injury would throw people into a frenzy.
Feeling pleased by her words, the man reached out and pinched her cheek as he said: “I know what to do.”
Upon saying that, he turned his gaze onto the black clothed Lian Shi to say: “As an ancient site left behind by people of gods race, the air in this place is still filled with such a robust celestial aura even after so many years. It makes me think that there must be some divine creature or artifact held in this place!”
His words had come suddenly out of nowhere. Though the black clothed Lian Shi was a little puzzled and was taken by surprise for a moment, he went on to nod his head lightly as he replied: “That’s right. Deep down underground below the Mind Free Peak, it is rumoured that there is a living Buddha Palm Lotus that is more than a million years old. It is said that it has developed a spirit body form and it possesses its own intellect, its powerful spirit aura protecting these lands.”
“That must be it. A spiritual life form that has survived for a million years would have longed gained a physical form and would possess mighty spirit powers. Nothing would be more suitable as a physical body to endow his spirit soul onto.” Lou Jun Yao explained.
“But, no one has the slightest inkling on where that thing is actually located, and more importantly, as it possesses its own consciousness, do you think it will be willing to do anyone’s bidding at all?”
Lou Jun Yao then laughed mockingly as he cast his glance towards Qing Tian Lin and said: “That is something you do not have to worry about at all. Afterall, puppeteers are not entirely undeserving of their reputation. They can already manipulate and control a living person so completely, getting them to control a spirit life form would naturally be an absolute cinch for them.”
Hearing that, Qing Tian Lin could not help but to laugh in response and say: “You’re too kind with your praise.”
