The atmosphere in the room was silent for a few breaths because of Xu Han's question.
Even Master Wei 's movements froze at that moment. Although it was only a brief moment, Xu Han was still keenly aware of it.
Seeming to have noticed the other party's strange behavior, Xu Han hurriedly said before the old man spoke, "With Sir's great talent, I don't think he would deceive me, nor would he casually spin nonsense, right?"
Master Wei finally regained his senses. He looked at Xu Han and saw a crafty smile on the youth's face. The old man shook his head helplessly.
"I don't know."
The old man replied.
Most likely, Xu Han had thought that the old man would respond to his own question with some vague words or some profound proverbs. Most of the great powers in the world liked this kind of trick. However, Xu Han had never imagined that the old man's answer would be so simple.
"Don't know?" He inevitably frowned and looked at the old man suspiciously.
Master Wei seemed to know the background of each of them. Xu Han did not want to probe into the reason behind the old man's actions. After all, the old man had helped them a lot along the way. If it wasn't for his help, Chu Chouli would have gone to the Nine Springs to find his fellow apprentices and senior apprentices to drink wine.
However, Xu Han couldn't believe that the old man really didn't know anything. Even though the reward of one tael of silver at that time was due to Xu Han's interest, the rest of the journey seemed to have been deliberately done by the old man.
He seemed to have seen through Xu Han's doubts and knew that he probably wouldn't be able to deal with them easily today.
Master Wei lowered his head and pondered.
Then, his tone suddenly darkened a little. "To be exact, I also want to find out who you are."
"Huh?" Xu Han raised his eyebrows and did not say anything else. He looked straight at the old man and signaled him to say the following.
"I'm very curious …" The old man frowned, as if he was rather puzzled. "Why would he take such a big risk to descend to this world just to save your life …"
"Him?" Xu Han was slightly stunned, and he quickly reacted. The man the old man spoke of was clearly the man who had descended like a god during the Chang'an Transformation. Xu Han's gaze towards the old man instantly became surprised. He stared straight at the old man and asked, "Who exactly is he?"
Master Wei's gaze darkened as he spat out a word that Xu Han had never heard before, "Surveillance."
"What do you mean?" Xu Han asked.
However, Master Wei shook his head and said, "I know very little about the watchers. All I know is that they come from the outside world. They set down the order of the heavens and the earth on each side. In a sense, they are existences higher than immortals. They protect and rule this world. Most of the time, this is the case, except."
Xu Han smelled something from the strange tone of the old man's words. "Except for what?" He asked.
Master Wei raised his head to look at Xu Han. The color in his eyes was inexplicable. His voice suddenly turned cold. At that time, he said, "Whenever they descend here, there will be great calamity and calamity with them."
"Are you saying that this has something to do with me?" Xu Han asked.
"Perhaps not. As I said, I know very little about them. You are undoubtedly the best place to start if I want to understand the reason why he came to this world." Speaking of this, Master Wei did not seem to have any intention of concealing anything. He spoke very calmly.
"Then does Sir understand?"
"The difference is very far, but recently, there are some directions." Master Wei stroked his beard and said.
"Then don't forget to tell me when the time comes, sir." Xu Han cupped his hands and said.
"That's easy to say." Master Wei nodded and agreed, "Little brother, don't forget to promise this old man."
Xu Han knew that Master Wei was referring to the promise he had made after saving Chu Chouli. Naturally, Xu Han would not renege on it, and he also agreed to it. Finally, Xu Han was about to bow his hands. He thanked Master Wei for the conversation he had with him today, but felt that it was inappropriate. This was not because he was stingy with such courtesy. He just felt that the two of them did not have much substantive communication after all. If he bowed down, how would Master Wei salute him if he really helped him resolve this confusion in the future?
However, he did not know that he had fallen into Master Wei's eyes with such hesitation. The old man narrowed his eyes, and a divine light flashed in his eyes.
Master Wei didn't seem to want to give Xu Han much time to think. He stood up at that time and smiled faintly, "Let this matter be exposed. Little brother doesn't need to take it to heart. After all, in my opinion, little brother has more important things to do."
"What is it?" Xu Han was stunned, but he didn't know what Master Wei meant.
At that time, Master Wei suddenly crouched down and lay on the ground with his limbs facing the ground. It had to be said that at this moment, he had an image that was extremely disagreeable to Xu Han's impression of Master Wei.
Following that, Master Wei's actions even more subverted Xu Han's understanding of the old man.
The old man lay on the ground and twisted in an extremely strange manner, moving in the direction of the bed beside him.
However, it seemed that because he was too old, the old man's speed was a little slow. Soon, dense sweat appeared on his forehead. He realized that it seemed troublesome to rely on himself to complete his plan, so he looked at Xu Han and said, "Help me."
"Ah?" Xu Han was stunned, but he subconsciously squatted down and pushed the old man into the bed according to the old man's request.
After doing this, the old man extended his hand to signal Xu Han to retreat back to his original position.
Only then did the old man point at the broken silver in Xu Han's hand. His mouth opened and closed, as if he was saying something, but his voice was really too low. Xu Han could not hear it clearly, but he could roughly recognize the word "karma" from the old man's mouth shape. Xu Han was puzzled by the old man's strange behavior. He was about to ask a question, but his words reached his mouth. Master Wei felt as if he had sensed something. He pulled off the sheets on the bed and completely concealed his body beneath the bed.
Pu!
At this time, several windows around the door were suddenly pushed open by others. Several figures entered through the window. A cold dagger flashed past, shooting down the only candle in the door. The door instantly fell into darkness.
At this moment, the figures that had rushed into the door also rushed towards Xu Han.
Xu Han's eyes narrowed. He saw the scene of a breath before the candle was extinguished. Those people were all dressed in purple and had one or two golden threads embroidered on their sleeves.
He could not be clearer.
This was the symbol of the Asura Envoy of the Dark Asura Palace and the Great Asura Envoy!
