Chapter 162 - One Box of Gold Bars, Heavy Powder in the Sky (2/2)
“No,” both of them answered very simply, which made Liu Shuai doubt what he heard.
“Forget it,” Liu Shuai had to murmur to Hao Ning. Nobody knew what he said.
After hearing what he said, Hao Ning looked at Liu Shuai in surprise, “Is it real?”
At this moment, the Sixth took out something. It became a book in the air and cast a beam on the old monk. The old monk looked at the Sixth immediately and said, “My Lord.”
“Go!” the Sixth brother nodded.
The old monk said nothing and rushed to a big pillar. “Bang”. Blood came out of his head. The old monk lied on the ground.
The Seventh walked to him and touched his neck, saying, “Died.”
“Fifth,” The First brother said. “What about the time?”
The Fifth said nothing. He pinched his fingers and thought. Then he said, “The time is right. The nether world will think he killed himself. And there is no animal soul inside his body. So, the nether world will not pay attention to this case.”
“Ok, let’s begin!” The head man said. “Second brother and Third brother, array!”
Hao Ning and others looked at their actions and said nothing. Xiao Hong and Nezha had undergone many things. They were also stunned and did not understand what they were doing. “What are they doing? Why is it so troublesome to kill someone?”
“They are so mighty!” Hao Ning couldn’t help sighing. The immortals were truly different from ordinary persons. Their thoughts were so different from ordinary persons. Seeing somebody was killed, Hao Ning was so scared to say something while Xiao Hong and Nezha only cared about why they did it. Hao Ning was sure what they did after seeing their complicated steps. So, he pointed to those and said, “Their aim is: they don’t want to be traced by the nether world. They separated the soul of the old monk from his body so fast and sucked the soul by the gloves. Then they used the Book Elf to force the old monk to kill himself. By doing so, the nether world just knew that somebody suicided and the soul from a suicided man will not be the business of the nether world. For some reasons, the nether world may pay close attention whether there were animals’ souls inside the body of the suicided man. But there was no animal’s soul inside the body of the old monk. So, they killed the old monk in that way to practice deception.”
“Brother Hao Ning, you know so much!” Xiao Hong thumbed up. “This is a really good way to do it!”
“But it is a little brutal,” Nezha, unlike Liu Shuai and Zhou Yuan who dared not to look at the old monk, looked at the old monk, frowning. Nezha said in a cold voice, “It is a shame to kill a civilian. They should fight my Zhou forces if they are really powerful.”
“Anyway, what do they want?” Hao Ning said a little bravely. “They silenced the old monk just because he didn’t want to sell the statue? Did they want to destroy the statue? Zhou Yuan, did you put the statue in the Virtualised reality?”
“Are you scared to be silly?” Zhou Yuan still dared not to look at the old monk. He murmured, “I had already put the statue in the Virtualised reality when you played the god inducer.”
“But I saw you just removed part of the Virtualised reality.” He knew that Zhou Yuan did not have enough power to support the whole Virtualised reality of the sea in Heaven. So, he just removed part of it. That was the reason he reminded Zhou Yuan of the statue. “You didn’t remove the part where the statue is placed, right?”
“No,” Zhou Yuan nodded. “The statue is Long Fei’s essence. I won’t remove that part. But, to be honest, the walls of this temple are so big. So, I have to let them return to the real world. — I truly spent much of my power— but I still have the power to keep the statue in the Virtualised reality.”
“Ok. As long as the statue is kept in there, everything else is not important.” Xiao Hong nodded. “Let’s see what they will do and then decide what we should do.”
As they were talking, the Fourth who cut the old monk’s soul threw the sword in his hand toward the temple hall. The sword looked very sharp, deepening into the gate of the hall.
“This person’s Kung Fu is just so-so. But his sword is very sharp,” Hao Ning said with a smile as he watched the man throw his sword in a very casual way and did not get his target. “He failed to aim at his target. It’s…”
As he was talking, Hao Ning and others heard a sound. The sword seemed to have disappeared. Only a belt buckle and a handle left on the ground.
There was a hole left on the door. The surrounding area of the hole seemed to be turned into white powder, and the white powder seemed to have life. It gradually turned the wood around the hole into the white powder, which seemed to be very loose. After becoming the white powder, it fell directly to the ground. In a very short time, there was more and more white powder and the wood became less and less with the hole bigger and bigger. After two breaths, the whole door became the white powder. It seemed that it was not the end of the story. The white powder expanded to the walls, too. Strangely, the walls did not become white powder. They disappeared! Only a hissing sound could be heard as the white powder passed the walls. The windows and others made of wood became white powder.
