”The mute wouldn't speak until some salt was sprinkled over his pancakes.”

A Buddhism chant rang out from the thin mist.

A figure walked out from the mist slowly.

It was a man dressed in ordinary simple-colored clothing with a Taoism bun.

A thin wooden sword hanging above his head pierced through the mist and moved forward without making any noise.

It was exactly the World Wayfarer of Haotian Taoism, Ye Su, with his accompanying sword.

Second Brother stood up slowly.

He had been sitting back-to-back with Fourth Brother for the whole night.

Without sleeping at all for a whole night, he could not conceal the expression of exhaustion between his eyes and brows.

While hearing the Buddhism chant ringing out from the mist, everyone in the Academy showed a wary expression on their faces, even with a touch of anxiety.

”Sprinkle more salt on the pancake.”

Second Brother was talking to Mu You who was baking pancakes by the stove, ”Seems his taste is pretty much heavier.”

This was a joke which was not funny at all.

But due to the fact that he had never joked, he looked quite funny when telling the joke, so everybody laughed out.

Then silence befell.

All felt somewhat uneasy when Second Brother started to tell jokes.

Ye Su asked, ”What's so funny?”

Second Brother replied, ”Only you have shown up, of course, you were that funny.”

Ye Su went on and said, ”It seems that you were not surprised by my showing up.”

Second Brother spoke out, ”The Abbey Dean had dropped by yesterday. Since groups of flies have been dancing and flying, it does not matter if one more fly exists.”

Ye Su said, ”I wanted to fight with you back at Chang'an City.”

Second Brother answered, ”If it had not been because of the prohibition from my Senior Brother, I would have searched for you and gotten out of the mountain with a sword in my hand, at the time when you were watching over the small Taoist temple.”

Ye Su said, ”To kill people, you have to use a sword.”

With iron sword raised up in his hands, Second Brother said then, ”I won't say such crappy things like the sword having already been in my hand.”

Ye Su asked smilingly, ”Then what are you going to say?”

Second Brother replied, ”What I want to say is that you are showing up at a pretty bad time which is bad for you.”

”How so?” Taking his smile back, Ye Su asked calmly.

Second Brother said, ”I have been killing hundreds of people for these two days. My sword momentum is going strong.”

”Liu Bai has been waiting for the time when you kill people to a frantic state. But I do not want to wait any longer.”

Ye Su said, ”Because by then, it would perhaps be the worst time.”

Then with his brows suddenly creased over, he said, ”Jun Mo, you are now in a somewhat bad state.”

Second Brother replied with a peaceful and conscientious way.

”It is natural of my spirits to be in a somewhat absent state after a sleepless night.”

Ye Su asked, ”Do you need to sleep for a while first?”

Second Brother replied, ”No, it is unnecessary.”

With his eyebrows tilted up slightly, he asked, ”Why?”

Second Brother said, ”Because you are still not Liu Bai after all.”

”You are not Liu Bai. You may become Liu Bai, but at this moment you are still not Liu Bai.”

”Then, even after a sleepless night, I am still confident in beating you down.”

That was what Second Brother was trying to say.

The ordinary soldiers and generals in the West-Hill Divine Palace Coalition Army had no idea as to who that person was.

While for some priests who held extremely profound qualifications in the Divine Hall, they had figured out the identity of that person. The joyous expression on their faces was too obvious to be concealed.

However, Ye Hongyu slightly frowned.

She once regarded the person as her idol and the object of her cultivation.

However, currently, in her eyes, that person was also a fool.
