Chapter 234 Who Did Mr. Buddha Come For? (1/2)

Su Xiaoxiao wanted to throw herself at Xiao Bing, but she had to suppress that urge when she saw Ye Xiaoxi sitting there. Her eyes were all red. “Brother Bing, are you badly wounded?” she asked.

“I’m fine. Your Brother Bing is invulnerable. Hahaha.” The smile on his face was huge. But then it faded and there seemed to a lightning flash in his eyes. “It’s not easy for them to kill me.”

Lil Bei came over as well and lifted the sheet covering Xiao Bing. He took a glance at the wounds on Xiao Bing’s body and placed the sheet back. The smile on his face disappeared. “Who did this?” he asked gravely.

“I’ve already killed him.”

“Who?”

Xiao Bing hesitated. He didn’t want to lie to his friend, but that man weighed heavily on his mind. “A follower of Buddhism.”

“Buddhism?”

All others, even Su Xiaoxiao, were probably wondering how Xiao Bing offended these monks because they were usually peaceful people. But Lil Bei knew what happened. The mirth on his face ebbed somewhat. He spoke sternly, “Is he one of Mr. Buddha’s men? If that was the case, I’m afraid that it was indeed Mr. Buddha and the traitor who once served you who conspired to kill Peiya. And now they tried to kill you when they saw you on your own.”

“They probably didn’t know my location, otherwise they wouldn’t have sent only one man. I assume they must have known that it was once Su Peiya’s home and were wondering if I was living there now. That’s why they sent only one man. Now that this man is dead, it is logical for them to assume that I’m here.”

“So what do we do now?” Lil Bei got fretful when he thought of Xiao Bing’s currently sealed strength. “Brother Bing, now most of your power is sealed. Why don’t we come back to the Dragon Teeth. I’m sure Mr. Buddha wouldn’t dare do anything to you if you have the Dragon Teeth behind you.

Xiao Bing’s face turned gloomy. He stared at Lil Bei and asked, “You mean that I should let the Dragon Gate protect me?”

Xiao Bing hastily answered, “I know Brother Bing doesn’t need anyone’s protection and you don’t want to be protected by the man who used to follow you. But given your present situation…”

“Impossible!” Looking very stern, Xiao Bing shook his head, “You don’t understand. I don’t feel ashamed about being protected by my friends. Actually, I had nothing to do with the Dragon Teeth three and a half year ago…”

Xiao Bing took a deep breath and spoke while looking at Lil Bei, “There are things that can’t be forgotten for a whole lifetime. Do you understand?”

“I understand.” Lil Bei’s eyes dimmed a little. “I’m sorry, Brother Bing, we all failed you.”

“Silly boy, do you think that I resent you for that? No, it’s my own choice and I can understand that some of the brotherhood hate me. It’s just sometimes we need to choose our own path and stick with it, no matter how ragged it is. The reason why I don’t want to go back is because the Dragon Teeth is a tight rope now. It’s at its strongest. I don’t want to see it fall apart because of my return. For instance, if there was a brother who didn’t want me under his protection, wouldn’t there be a conflict between you and him?”

Lil Bei grew silent. Just as Xiao Bing had told him, there were still some brothers in Dragon Teeth who still couldn’t accept the truth that three years ago Xiao Bing chose those criminals over them. They loved Xiao Bing but also hated him. Up to now, Xiao Bing was still scarcely mentioned among its members. And this time Xiao Bing’s resources in the headquarters forced Dragon Teeth to allow Lil Bei to come to Xiao Bing’s aid.

Lil Bei asked, “Should we return to the Dragon Gate now? If we have the protection of the Dragon Gate, I’m sure even Mr. Buddha can’t do anything to you. After all, the Dragon Gate you established was made of the best of the best masters at that time. But you haven’t recovered you strength. If we go back there and fall into that traitor’s trap…”

Xiao Bing grinned when he saw Lil Bei’s anxiety, “Stop worrying about me. The gods have a plan for us all. Besides, I am gradually regaining my strength. I shall be invincible when that day comes. Who can kill me?”

Xiao Bing’s eyes turned grim. “When that day comes, whoever had a part in Peiya’s murder shall be sent to hell by me.”

Even so, Lil Bei was still worried. But he knew Xiao Bing’s temperament. No one could force him to do something he didn’t want to do.

Xiao Bing sighed, “I just don’t understand how this person found the place. Even our brothers at the Dragon Gate didn’t know Peiya’s birthplace. How can someone from the Buddhism…”
