Chapter 336: Abacus

Chapter 336: Abacus

Standing within the Buddhas Skeleton Temple, Li Huowang took deep breaths as he did his best to suppress the urge to kill Xin Chi. He had never hated someone this badly. He had listened to Xin Chi and thought that he killed someone from the Sitting Oblivion Dao, but to think that the man had claimed to be mistaken?

He knew that the Surveillance Bureau didnt care about the lives of the innocents when fulfilling their duties. But Li Huowang had never thought that he would end up being the one to do something like that! Because of Xin Chi, he had killed an innocent man!

At the same time, compared to Li Huowang, Monks illusion was even angrier, to the point that he was jumping around and crying at the same time. How could he do that? He doesnt have the qualifications to be a monk! He just killed someone!

As he spoke, Monks illusion ran over to punch and kick Xin Chi; but as an illusion, he just phased through the mans body.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

You have no qualifications to shave your head! You dont do any good deeds and only do malicious ones! You are not a monk! shouted Monk.

Meanwhile, Li Huowang just stood up and followed after them; however, his gaze as he looked at Xin Chi was quite different now. Whatever little respect and good feeling he had for the man had now been turned into disgust and anger.

He had originally been suspicious of why Xin Chi had been locked within Yinling Prison. However, now he knew that it was too light of a sentence for the man.

Unfortunately, Li Huowang understood that now was not the time to raise the issue. If he didnt cooperate now, then they could easily get ambushed by the Sitting Oblivion Dao. Thus, Li Huowang would rather let the issue go for now. However, this didnt mean that he couldnt hate the monk right now.

How is it, Xin Chi? Was that man someone from the Sitting Oblivion Dao? asked Hong Da.

No, I was mistaken. Xin Chis voice appeared in everyones mind.

Hearing this, Tuoba Danqing scoffed at him. Master Xin Chi, werent you rumored to have learned the Six Paths of Buddhism? How could you discern the wrong person? Dont forget that Lord Ji Xiang is quite busy, and that we cant delay him.

Even though he said that, Ji Xiang ignored them, which was something rare. Instead, the man was frowning as he surveyed the entire palace, all the while his fat fingers never stopping their work on the abacus.

Li Huowang noticed that something was off and quickly calmed himself down as he observed the eunuch in front of him.

Can that abacus find the members of the Sitting Oblivion Dao? Then why do we need Xin Chi?

At that moment, Ji Xiangs fingers suddenly stopped. Lets go to the main palace.

Hearing this, everyone shut up and quickly followed after him.

Dont deduce this on your own. The informants of the Surveillance Bureau are much smarter than you. If they have detected that the Sitting Oblivion Dao is here, then they are definitely here, said Hong Da.

However, Li Huowang shook his head. No, Im not saying that the Sitting Oblivion Dao isnt here. All Im saying is that maybe theres another reason behind why the SItting Oblivion Dao infiltrated this place rather than just doing their regular petty tricks.

Li Huowang thought that Ji Xiang would contemplate on his words, but the man merely frowned and said, Just do your job.

Then, he turned to exit the palace.

Whats going on?

With this, Li Huowang was even more bewildered. It was as if Ji Xiang knew what the Sitting Oblivion Dao was doing.

As he followed them, Li Huowang knew that something was wrong as he followed them.

That eunuch must be holding something back from us.

At this point, Li Huowang thought that the whole mission was fishy even though he hadnt even seen the Sitting Oblivion Daos shadows.

As Li Huowangs boots stepped onto the clean marble floor, his footsteps echoed loudly. This time, rather than observing the devotees and the monks, he concentrated on Ji Xiang instead.

After much observation, Li Huowang saw what was wrong.

If Ji Xiang had been fighting against the Sitting Oblivion Dao, then he shouldve been paying attention to the people around them. Rather than that, he was instead concentrating on the pillars of the temple. At the same time, his abacus never stopped; it was as if he was looking for something.

Is he looking for something specific?

Li Huowang didnt dare ask the question because he didnt know Ji Xiangs true power.

Benefactor Er, five steps to the left, kill!

Hearing the command, Li Huowang unsheathed his sword halfway before seeing that it was a woman praying diligently on the prayer mat. Thus, he sheathed his sword back.
