Chapter 104 - The Death of Mysterious Bitter
In response to Ling Xiao's question, Qiao Feng tightly furrowed his brows.
After a long while, Qiao Feng raised his head, as if he had made a very important decision, his expression was solemn as he said: "I think it's best if we don't go through the main entrance, maybe the Master does not want me to go in so openly."
Hearing that, Ling Xiao squinted his eyes: "If you want to enter the Shaolin Temple without anyone knowing, then I ask that Eldest Brother be mentally prepared. It is extremely possible that there will be people here to arrange a conspiracy and wait for Qiao Feng to take the bait."
Hearing this, Qiao Feng's body couldn't help but tremble. He said in disbelief: "That's impossible, even someone who is familiar with me would not be able to guess me so well. How did he know that I would come to see my Master?"
Hearing that, Ling Xiao couldn't help but shake his head and say: "Everyone in the Jianghu knows, that the Eldest Brother is a man of good faith and is very particular about morals. It isn't hard to guess that such a huge thing has happened to him, and that he would go back to visit the Master.
After hearing Ling Xiao's explanation, Qiao Feng was stunned; he did not expect himself to be seen through so easily.
"Let's go, since Eldest Brother Qiao Feng has decided to go like this, I will accompany you. If there's anything you need me to do, let's go together." Ling Xiao looked at the retreating Qiao Feng, and patted his shoulder as he spoke.
Hearing that, Qiao Feng raised his head, looked at Ling Xiao, and nodded strongly: "Just as Sect Master Ling said, I, Qiao Feng am such a person, I will definitely go and see him!"
With their attainments in the lightness exercise, it was not difficult for Ling Xiao and Qiao Feng to sneak into the Shaolin Temple without making a sound. Therefore, when they entered, they did not alert anyone from the Shaolin Temple.
But because of this silence, Ling Xiao's expression became solemn instead.
"Sect Master Ling, if you want to see Master, I can go in by myself. Master is too old, I'm afraid it's not convenient to see outsiders." Qiao Feng and Ling Xiao stood outside Master Xuan Ku's meditation room, and said in a low voice.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao nodded his head and said: "That's fine, then Eldest Brother Qiao Feng will take note of his safety. I suspect that someone has already arranged a profound formation in Master Xuan Ku's meditation room.
"Got it, I am just going in to see if the Master is doing well." Got it, I am just going in to see if the Master is doing well. Qiao Feng nodded his head, then went up to the meditation room.
As for Ling Xiao, he found a convenient place to hide, he needed to pay attention to the movements of the meditation room, so he could not go too far. In the end, Ling Xiao chose to go to a garden opposite of the meditation room.
Qiao Feng said that it would not take long, Ling Xiao was worried that something might happen if he waited for too long, so he planned to directly call Qiao Feng out in the time it took to boil a cup of tea to boil, but he did not expect that Qiao Feng would come out in less than ten breaths of time.
"Bam!" With a sound, the meditation room's door was violently smashed open by Qiao Feng. When Ling Xiao heard the sound, he knew that the thing he was worried about had already happened.
Therefore, Ling Xiao immediately went up to Qiao Feng and asked in a low voice: "Eldest Brother Qiao Feng, what's going on?"
Qiao Feng turned around and took a look at the interior of the meditation room. With a sorrowful expression, he shook his head and said: "Sect Master Ling, the current situation is extremely urgent. If there are any questions, we should talk about them after we leave!"
At this time, Ling Xiao also noticed the changes in his surroundings, and it was unknown when the previously quiet garden started to get noisy.
"Someone come quickly!" Master Xuan Ku has been assassinated! " An extremely loud sound rang out, followed by the sound of footsteps. It seemed like all of the Shaolin disciples were rushing over here.
Ling Xiao immediately took out two black scarves from his bosom and handed one to Qiao Feng, then said: "Clan Master Qiao, time is of the essence, let's quickly leave."
"What use do I have for this handkerchief!?" Someone has already seen me! " Qiao Feng said somewhat sorrowfully. Clearly, he did not expect that when he came back to visit his own Master, he would be tricked.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao immediately surrounded him, even if Qiao Feng was found out, he could not reveal his identity, or else it would be the Beggar Gangs's calamity, so Ling Xiao participating in this mission, would be taking a huge risk.
With the level of and his lightness exercise, it would not be difficult for them to get rid of these people. The key point was how to successfully break through the gate of Shaolin Temple.
The moment the news of Master Xuan Ku's death spread, the entire Shaolin Temple entered into a state of security, so when Ling Xiao and Qiao Feng came to the exit of the Shaolin Temple, they realised that they had been blocked off by someone.
Ling Xiao was helpless, he could only ask Yue Lao San and the others for help. After a signal flare was released, they quickly rushed towards the exit where Ling Xiao was.
Very quickly, there was a commotion at the exit, and then Yue Lao San brought everyone to break through a crack.
Because the Yue Lao San, Yun Zhonghe, and Jiu Mozhi were not people from the Beggar Gangs, Ling Xiao was willing to allow them to attack.
Moreover, the evil reputations of the Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe had long ago spread far and wide. These disciples would definitely say that these were Qiao Feng who had been saved by the Four Great Evildoers.
In this way, although the suspicion of the Beggar Gangs could be removed, it would be very difficult for Qiao Feng to clear his body of the crime of being framed when he was together with the Four Great Evildoers.
With the help of Yue Lao San and the others, Ling Xiao and his group successfully escaped from the jaws of death.
After confirming that there were no pursuers from the Shaolin Temple behind him, Ling Xiao stopped. When he turned around, he realized that everyone was already panting heavily, as if they could not hold on for much longer, and remembered that they had been running frantically for a long time. Even if the pursuers from the Shaolin Temple wanted to chase after them, they probably wouldn't have a life to chase after them.
"Alright, this place should be safe. Everyone, take a rest." After Ling Xiao announced the rest, he walked in front of Qiao Feng.
Even though the current Qiao Feng had a face full of exhaustion, those dull eyes told that he was in an extremely bad mood.
Ling Xiao stepped forward and comforted her: "Eldest Brother Qiao Feng, people can't come back to life.
After all, he had heard the news of Master Xuan Ku's death clearly. Ling Xiao also understood what Master Xuan Ku meant to Qiao Feng, so he did not inquire about the cause of death immediately.
Qiao Feng slowly raised his head, looked at Ling Xiao, gritted his teeth, and said word by word. "What stage do they need to reach to be willing to let me go?
