Super Elation Under the Sun

Chapter 91 Finish Reasoning

The battle on the mountaintop was over.

In fact, the fight between the temple owner and Sage Chen's wooden statue wasn't as magnificent as the fight between him and Yang Changsheng. Although the wooden statue was worshiped as Sage Chen and it made deafening sounds, it was not Sage Chen himself or a skill left by him. Under the brilliance of the temple owner's bright moon and colorful long river, its strength did not match its ambitions and soon it dimmed, returning to the Tranquilization Pavilion.

The temple owner withdrew the colorful long river and let the bright moon shine the mountaintop behind him. After he fell on the ground, he stood at the summit and didn't destroy the Tranquilization Pavilion in a hurry, nor did he take a look at Yang Changsheng who was severely wounded. Instead, he walked a few steps and then stood under the eave of the Tranquilization Pavilion. He laughed and talked to himself. "It's raining."

It was sunny, but as soon as the temple owner said that, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Soon the heavy rain came in time.

When the heavy rain fell, the bright moon naturally disappeared.

The old Taoists standing on the mountaintop looked at one another. Although they were unwilling to go to the temple owner, under such heavy rain, they couldn't afford to care about anything and came to shelter from the rain under the eave as they were injured.

The heavy rain was pouring down and the rain drops fell on the grey tile on the roof of the Tranquilization Pavilion, so some drops inevitably splashed under the eave. The temple owner lowered his head and looked at a stain on his clothes, so he stretched out his hand and took some rain water, washing his clothes with it randomly. After he wrung out his wet clothes, he smiled and looked at Yang Changsheng who had been carried over and put under the eave.

Yang Changsheng closed his eyes tightly and breathed rapidly. His face was ghastly pale, and it was obvious that he was injured seriously.

However, it needed to check if he was really in a coma.

The temple owner turned to the old Taoist in grey and asked, "What would you think if I really destroy the Tranquilization Pavilion? Would you rush to fight against me till death and then lose your life in the end?"

The old Taoist in grey remained silent and didn't dare to say more. The power that the temple owner had shown was still visible before his eyes. Although it was his soul out of his body coming to Yuwu Mountain, he broke the great array protecting the mountain first and then beat Yang Changsheng on the mountain, injuring him so much. At last even Sage Chen's wooden statue made its power felt, but it couldn't stop the temple owner. As for the host Ge Hong, even Yang Changsheng thought nothing of him at ordinary times, and he didn't show up under this situation. At the moment, nobody could be found on this mountain to stop the temple owner.

The old Taoist in grey didn't speak, while a young Taoist walked slowly in the heavy rain to the Tranquilization Pavilion. The young man was wet all over, yet his eyes were determined. He looked at the temple owner with hatred in his eyes.

The old Taoist in grey turned to the young Taoist and rebuked, "Wanyun, don't be rude. Go back now!"

He was afraid that the temple owner would kill the young Taoist conveniently when he was excited. After all, there were many disciples as the third generation on the mountain, but Liu Wanyun was the top one all the time.

Although his talent was inferior to Ye Shengge's, in fact, on Yuwu Mountain, Liu Wanyun's position was the same as Ye Shengge's on Chenxie Mountain.

The temple owner stood under the eave and stared at this young Taoist. Suddenly he laughed. "Your talent is nice, and your courage is worth the compliment. It's a pity that you stay on Yuwu Mountain. How about you go to Chenxie Mountain? If you can reach the tenth floor of the Sky Building, I will teach you one of the skills that I have shown before, and you can choose any one. What do you say?"

The temple owner's offer was generous, and he said that in front of so many Taoists on Yuwu Mountain. No matter if he was sincere, he wouldn't break his word later anyway. If an ordinary disciple in a Taoist temple was mentioned by the temple owner, he might be grateful. However, Liu Wanyun stood in the rain and said while stressing each word, "I am Liu Wanyun. Please give me instructions, sir."

The old Taoist in grey couldn't restrain his anger. "Liu Wanyun, get out of here and go back. You shouldn't come here."

The temple owner laughed it off. He hadn't seen many such young Taoists, but he had seen some anyway. He didn't appreciate or hate him, and he just asked when he was in a good mood. Since this young Taoist didn't feel grateful to him, the temple owner didn't want to say more.

The temple owner didn't pay attention to this heavy rain anymore. He just stood at the gate of the Purification Building and stated peacefully, "If you don't want me to destroy this Purification Building, just show your sincerity. After all, you have the nerve to assassinate Shengge, and you should bear the consequence. Don't say that I have no evidence. I have come here. If you have a clear conscience, it probably wouldn't be like this. Since you have done it, you need to pay a price. I told Shouqing before to talk with you but you didn't reach an agreement. Perhaps you think that it is just an assassination which failed and I won't take it to heart. To be frank, Shengge was attacked by somebody, and from the bottom of my heart, I wasn't angry. She is used to being at ease on Chenxie Mountain and it is not a big deal if she suffers frustration occasionally. However, I don't want to see that you made this decision. Since Chenxie Mountain can stand erect there, it means that we have the power. If you come to provoke us, I will tell you that you can't."

As soon as the temple owner finished his words, Liu Wanyun fell in the rain severely with much rain water splashing.

The temple owner expressed casually, "Carry him away. After he wakes up, tell him that I will wait for him for one hundred years on Chenxie Mountain. If he thinks that he has the confidence to surpass me within one hundred years, he can come to Chenxie Mountain. Of course, I give him just one chance during this period. If he can't make it for the first time, I will take his life on that mountain when he comes for the second time."

With that, the temple owner walked into the Tranquilization Pavilion and kept silent.

After the temple owner walked in, Zhang Shouqing and Ge Hong walked in the rain under the umbrellas and came to this pavilion. Under the eave, Zhang Shouqing dressed in a yellow and purple robe asked with a smile, "Masters, whom will you send to discuss this matter? Of course he must be able to make the decision. Don't report to this one and that one after we make an offer. I am good-tempered, but I am afraid that the temple owner can't wait so long. After all, he finally leaves the mountain this time and Yuwu Mountain is not his only destination."

The old Taoist in grey glanced at Ge Hong and responded with a forced smile, "Just ask the host to handle it. We have no objection."

Zhang Shouqing nodded with a smile and seemed not to understand what the old Taoist in grey meant by saying that.

After walking into the Tranquilization Pavilion, Ge Hong didn't go to see the temple owner in a hurry. But Zhang Shouqing came to behind the temple owner and looked at this man who stood in front of the memorial tablets of the predecessors on Yuwu Mountain with his hands behind his back.

The temple owner lit incense and stated calmly, "The predecessors in the history of Yuwu Mountain are worth respecting. I said that I would destroy the Tranquilization Pavilion just to frighten these old Taoists. No matter how unreasonable Chenxie Mountain is, we can't do something like this."

Zhang Shouqing cupped his hands and replied in a low voice, "Sir, you are right."

The temple owner turned around and said gently, "I will leave this mountain soon and go to Sword Mountain. After you handle the matter here, go back to deal with the affairs on our mountain immediately. If there is something unusual, just come to the Sky Building."

Zhang Shouqing nodded and raised his head, trying to say something, but the temple owner shook his head.

The temple owner unhurriedly walked past the Tranquilization Pavilion and came near Ge Hong, saying impassively, "Host Ge, it's better that you rule Yuwu Mountain in the future. Otherwise, if somebody does something and you can't stop it, you would suffer a lot."

Ge Hong bowed and said softly, "Sir, I will remember your kindness. If you need my help someday, I will do anything and never refuse."

The temple owner rebuked with a frown, "As the host of a mountain, how can you say that? Even though you are no match for me today, you should consider wiping out a humiliation in front of me someday. Once you lose your determination, you will have nothing. In Liangxi, it's difficult to reason things out, and you don't know how to reason. More importantly, if you reason with others patiently, who would listen? You just need to try to make yourself more powerful, and then you can reason with others instead of listening."

Ge Hong's expression changed slightly, and he said sincerely, "Sir, your words are much more valuable than those magic tools."

At the moment, Ge Hong finally started to admire this temple owner for the first time not because of his stage but his words.

The temple owner stopped talking and walked out of the Tranquilization Pavilion directly. Then he picked up the oil paper umbrella under the eave and went down the mountain slowly. All the disciples on the mountain fixed their eyes upon him, but none of them dared to stop him.

Everybody remembered the temple owner's matchless posture with a bright moon in one hand and a long river in the other, and even the wooden statue of Sage Chen could do nothing to him, let alone anybody else.

In the Tranquilization Pavilion, Zhang Shouqing and Ge Hong discussed the "price" that Yuwu Mountain should pay smoothly, and they finished talking in only half a day. When Zhang Shouqing took it out and showed it to the old Taoists, they didn't dare to say more and just nodded, even though they were still unwilling.

While Yang Changsheng didn't open his eyes from beginning to end.

At last, after the heavy rain stopped, the temple owner went far away from Yuwu Mountain and headed to Sword Mountain. His destination of this trip was the last heritage place of the swordsmen.

Chao Qingqiu was stopped by some people jointly on the demonic land, so who could stop him on Sword Mountain?

It was uncertain.
