628 Break into the Monastery (2/2)
The White Pagoda enjoyed a high requtation in cultivation. Quni Madi was tonsured here. It was rumored that the abbot of the White Tower Temple was an eminent monk who was at the Knowing Destiny State.
Same as the Go games on Tile Mountain, the most famous building in the temple was the White Pagoda.
Looking at the white pagoda in the lake, Ning Que felt a little anxious. He had been here three times in the past, but he never got close to it.
However, the place he planned to go to was under the White Pagoda. Considering he was so tired since he had been running for too long a time, he needed to have some rest.
There was a small island in the lake behind the White Tower Temple where the White Pagoda stood.
There was an unimpressive temple on the island which was connected to the land with a narrow bridge. The lake didn't freeze in early spring. A few lotuses were strenching on the bridge and looked beautiful.
As the unpleasant cries of the crows sounded in the sky, Ning Que quickly ran out of the back of an ancient clock, along with the narrow bridge to the eyot at the other end of the bridge.
While a dozen monks were walking out of a hall and discussing, pointing at the black crows, they saw Ning Que on the bridge and exclaimed in shock.
All of sudden, hasty steps reverberated in the temple. As the monks shouted, more and more people cried out and ran toward the lakeside.
As Ning Que realized they were found by the monks in the temple, he sped up, breaking the dead lotus while holding the hilt with his right hand.
Reaching the other end of the bridge, he tightened his hand and drew the podao out. A chill light flashed and two iron staffs were blasted away.
Two ascetic monks had been hiding at the bridgehead, trying to sneak attack on Ning Que since they heard the noises. Unexpectedly, Ning Que had already figured out their positions and struck first.
Two deep wounds appeared on their bodies, from face to waist, bleeding. They looked miserable and died quickly.
Ning Que didn't stop to look at them. He rushed into the quiet monastery, smashing a wooden door.
The windows of the monastery were covered with thick gauze. It was very dark inside.
Suddenly, an iron staff with Qi of Heaven and Earth ripped the air with a harsh sound and smashed toward Ning Que's head, freezing the air in the monastery.
Powerfully harnessing the Qi of Heaven and Earth like this, the man must be very strong. Considering the timing he attacked, Ning Que could not get rid of him easily.
However, Ning Que already knew who was inside and that was why he broke into this room, so how could he be unprepared for the attacks? He waved his podao and heavily countered the iron staff.
