Chapter 388 - Helplessness Request

Hearing that Ling Xiao had instantly revealed his identity, Old Man Green Bamboo raised his eyebrows, as he too, seemed to be slightly surprised.

He thought that he would let Ling Xiao guess for a while, and if he were to reveal his identity, the outcome would be completely different.

When Ling Xiao said this, it seemed as if the word Sun Moon Divine Hall was nothing to him, as if it did not have any power to scare him at all.

After a short moment of shock, Old Man Green Bamboo moved forward a bit more as he stared intently at Ling Xiao's eyes, "Little kid, I never would have thought that you were hiding your strength so deeply that this old man is unable to guess the whole story."

Ling Xiao smiled slightly, and said indifferently: "It is not that I am arrogant. No one in the entire world would be able to guess what I am thinking."

Hearing this, Old Man Green Bamboo's face slightly changed, as if he was in a bad mood, "Hmph, what a young child, you really think you're invincible under the heavens?"

"Old Mr, you flatter me." Ling Xiao chuckled, then picked up his teacup and started drinking.

Seeing Ling Xiao not being polite at all, Old Man Green Bamboo was so angry that his beard almost crooked.

He had originally wanted to teach Ling Xiao a lesson in front of Linghu Chong and increase his own breeze, but who would have thought that things would turn out like this.

He knew that words could not take advantage of Ling Xiao, so he could only give up. He straightened his back and returned back to his normal sitting posture, and asked: "Sect Leader Ling, then what are you doing here, looking for him?"

Ling Xiao looked at Linghu Chong, who had yet to recover from his shock, and indifferently said: "Naturally, there are some matters. I am not here to find you, I am here to find him."

The Old Man Green Bamboo frowned slightly. "Since this old man is Linghu Chong's Master, I naturally have the right to ask questions."

Ling Xiao laughed lightly: "Indeed, but since your identity has been exposed, is Hu Chong willing to become your disciple?"

Hearing this, Old Man Green Bamboo's face became ugly. He turned his head to look at the confused Linghu Chong and let out a few disgruntled breaths, then helplessly shook his head and said, "Even though this old man is from the Sun Moon Divine Hall, I haven't had any contact with the Sun Moon Divine Hall in a long time."

After he finished speaking, Old Man Green Bamboo looked at Ling Xiao again with a pleading expression and said: "Sect Leader Ling, since you know this old man's identity, you should naturally be clear of this old man's current situation."

Hearing this, Ling Xiao smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Alright, since Old Mr has said so, I will naturally explain it clearly for you."

As for the identity of the Old Man Green Bamboo, Ling Xiao was naturally very clear about it. Although he was from the Sun Moon Divine Hall, the Old Man Green Bamboo did not like to quarrel with him and so he left to live in seclusion in Luoyang. It was just that the Old Man Green Bamboo did not expect that the people outside would still come looking for him.

This was also the reason why those large clans within the Luoyang City could not get Old Man Green Bamboo to join them even after paying a huge price. It was because the Old Man Green Bamboo did not like to argue and had left the Sun Moon Divine Hall alone.

"Therefore, even though Old Mr is from the Sun Moon Divine Hall, in reality, he has nothing to do with the Sun Moon Divine Hall." Ling Xiao concluded.

Even though Hu Chong had a very strong hatred towards Ling Xiao in his heart, he didn't doubt Ling Xiao's words at all. Even so, Hu Chong still felt a little annoyed.

Hu Chong, who had been studying and growing up in the Huashan Mountain, had always thought of herself as a righteous person. Now that she had become the disciple of a cult, no matter what explanation she heard, she would always feel somewhat conflicted. She would definitely not be able to digest it in a short period of time.

Seeing how Hu Chong was about to say something, but he stopped himself from doing so, Old Man Green Bamboo shook his head helplessly. He let out a long sigh and said: "Disciple, you are also tired.

When Hu Chong heard this, he did not say much. After bowing to the Old Man Green Bamboo, he stood up and left.

Thus, Ling Xiao and Old Man Green Bamboo were the only two people left in the room.

Seeing that Ling Xiao's teacup was empty, Old Man Green Bamboo took the initiative to fill it up completely.

"Alright, now it's just the two of us, Sect Leader Ling can speak frankly if you have something to say." Old Man Green Bamboo put down the teapot and looked at Ling Xiao seriously.

As an old Jianghu, he knew that Ling Xiao definitely had a reason why he came all the way here.

"I just met an old friend, there's no need for Old Mr to be so serious." Ling Xiao said.

"Hmph. Don't mess with me." Old Man Green Bamboo squinted his eyes and said.

Ling Xiao spread out his hands and said: "I'm not interested in that."

"Although the news about the Fuzhou has not spread, this old man already knows about it." The Old Man Green Bamboo said.

"Oh? That Old Mr is rather well-informed. " Ling Xiao said.

Old Man Green Bamboo poured himself a cup of tea-water and said: "Even though it's been a long time since this old man returned to Sun Moon Divine Hall, it's not hard for me to find out some information."

It was as if the two of them started to chat without any ulterior motives, just like friends.

But suddenly, Old Man Green Bamboo changed the topic and looked at Ling Xiao sternly, "Sect Leader Ling, what did you do to Linghu Chong at that time?"

"Old Mr is referring to the internal injuries on your body, right?" Ling Xiao said indifferently.

Old Man Green Bamboo was once again shocked by Ling Xiao and asked in disbelief, "How do you know?"

"Hehe, when I saw Hu Chong's face, I knew that the meridians in my body were not flowing smoothly, and naturally my Dantian would not circulate smoothly as well. Naturally, this is the sign that my internal injuries have not completely healed." Ling Xiao laughed faintly.

"Hmph, Sect Leader Ling is so cruel, and you can still laugh." The Old Man Green Bamboo snorted. It could be seen that the Old Man Green Bamboo loved and cared for this disciple of his.

Ling Xiao shook his head and said: "Old Mr, don't misunderstand. Although I injured Linghu Chong back then, I did not try to chase Linghu Chong away. He had chosen to go down the mountain himself."

"If you don't let Hu Chong escape, Yue Buqun will not let him go." The Old Man Green Bamboo said coldly.

Ling Xiao laughed disdainfully, looked at the Old Man Green Bamboo and said with a serious expression: "As long as I am here, any of Yue Buqun's actions will never succeed, because I will not allow it."

Hearing Ling Xiao's overbearing words, the Old Man Green Bamboo became silent.

After a long while, Old Man Green Bamboo looked at Ling Xiao again, and said while hesitating a little: "Sect Leader Ling, since it was you who did this, can you help my disciple heal her internal injuries?"

Hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but laugh.

"Old Mr, are you begging me?"

Hearing that, Old Man Green Bamboo could not help but clench his teeth, obviously not wanting to let go of his face.

"This old man knows that a large group of people outside are trying to rope me in, including Wang Yuanba. If Sect Leader Ling can agree to it, then this old man will listen to Sect Leader Ling's arrangements." Old Man Green Bamboo thought about it, then gritted his teeth and said.
