Chapter 98 Shi Le Retreats
"Master is here."
Then, Li Boyang and Jueyuan appeared before the crowd and slowly walked to the center of the square.
"Miss, Mr. Li has arrived."
Cui'er, Shen Rong's maid, tugged at Shen Rong's sleeve and said with delight.
"Hmm, I thought you weren't coming, sir."
"The teacher has finally arrived."
Liu Bowen let out a long sigh.
“That’s Master Jueyuan from Shaolin Temple. I’ve met him at Shaolin Temple.”
"He is indeed a great monk of his generation, with an extraordinary temperament."
Who's the guy next to him?
"I've never seen him before. He's dressed like a scholar. Could he be a Xiucai (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations)?"
The moment the two arrived, they immediately drew everyone's attention and became the focus of the event.
"Master Qiu, I am a step late, please forgive me."
Jueyuan walked up to Qiu Chuji and bowed.
Jueyuan dared to step forward and greet Qiu Chuji, but he didn't dare. As soon as he appeared, he was dumbfounded. Something was wrong with the scene. Everyone was looking at him.
Fortunately, when Jueyuan walked to the front and back of Qiu Chuji's body, everyone's attention was focused on Jueyuan. After looking around, he found Liu Bowen's location and disappeared from the center of the square. The next moment, he was standing next to Liu Bowen.
Liu Bowen whispered, "Teacher, why did you take so long to arrive? I was so worried about you, I was afraid something had happened to you."
"Alright, stop pretending in front of the teacher. Do you look like you're worried about the teacher?"
Li Boyang had no choice but to suffer in silence. After blowing up the gunpowder in the valley, he had made an excuse not to come up, but he was persuaded to come up by Jueyuan in the end.
What's even more tragic is that the timing of this appearance was terrible; it was the center of attention, and the moment it came on, it became the focus of everyone's attention.
What did Master Jueyuan mean by what he just said?
Jueyuan chuckled and said calmly, "The Yuan Dynasty's cannons have been dealt with by this humble monk and Benefactor Boyang, so Master Qiu can rest assured."
Jueyuan then whispered a few words in Qiu Chuji's ear, and Qiu Chuji was overjoyed to hear them.
"You dare to lie to me?"
When Shi Le Jizu heard Jueyuan's words, he was somewhat skeptical and gestured to his attendants.
The signal arrow shot into the sky, bursting open at its highest point and creating a trail of sparks.
The next moment, nothing happened.
Shi Le Jizu's face instantly turned ugly. Seeing the malicious looks cast at him by the heroes of the martial arts world, the problem now was not that he was caught in a dilemma, but that he was in a predicament.
The original plan was to threaten the True Sect with cannons to hand over the Nine Yin Manual when the prayer ceremony began. Given Qiu Chuji's personality, he would definitely hand over the manual obediently.
After obtaining the true scriptures, he turned his back on everyone and used cannons to kill most of the martial arts heroes of the True Sect, thus eliminating a major source of turmoil for the Great Yuan. Now it seems that the cannons have malfunctioned, and his plans have failed.
Before the news of the cannon malfunction in the valley could reach Shi Lejizu, Li Boyang and Jueyuan had already taken action at three or four in the morning, and the gunpowder was actually destroyed around five in the morning. In addition, there was a period of chaos in the valley, so there was no time to spread the news.
"The Imperial Advisor should go down the mountain; if he doesn't leave now, he might not be able to leave at all."
Without cannons, Shi Le Jizu's threat is a joke. With so many experts in the True Sect now, plus Qiu Chuji in charge, there is no fear of Shi Le Jizu. However, it is impossible to kill Shi Le Jizu, as he is an expert on the same level as Qiu Chuji.
Moreover, although the Great Yuan Dynasty is on the verge of collapse, it has not truly fallen yet. At least Zhongnan Mountain is still under the control of the Great Yuan, so he cannot truly break ties with the Great Yuan.
"Hmph, Qiu Chuji, come and learn from me again another day."
Qiu Chuji was offering himself a way out. Given the situation, Shi Le Jizu had no reason not to take advantage of it. He uttered a harsh remark and turned to leave.
As he was leaving, he saw the disdainful looks from the heroes of the martial arts world and felt a tightness in his chest. He stared at Li Boyang for a while. The group came and went in a hurry. They came with an imposing manner and left with their tails between their legs.
Seeing the look in Shi Le's eyes before he left, Liu Bowen whispered, "Teacher, that guy seems to have remembered you."
"What's there to be afraid of? We'll deal with whatever comes our way."
Li Boyang didn't care much. What did it matter if he was remembered? At the same time, he made up his mind to leave the True Sect as soon as possible and go back to cultivate the Nine Yin Manual.
"Master Jueyuan, we are so grateful to you today."
"Look at how arrogant that lama was just now, but he left like a dog."
"Liang Xiong is right."
As soon as Shi Le Jizu left, everyone started talking about it.
Qiu Chuji called over Elder Zhen beside him and instructed him, " The chapter 98, 'Shi Le's Retreat,' that you are currently reading in 'Fist Breaks Through All Realms' only contains a small portion.
