733: Chapter 729 Tai Ping, you’re becoming more feminine!
733: Chapter 729 Tai Ping, you’re becoming more feminine!
The monk was startled, not expecting there to already be two people in the pavilion…
Ye Tian looked at the monk and immediately felt relieved.
This was no other than Abbot Ling Tong from Lingyin Temple.
Although Ye Tian had thought the abbot didn’t know martial arts when they first met, today’s meeting revealed not only did he know martial arts, but he was also a master.
Merely his ability to ascend to the pavilion demonstrated his exceptional Qinggong!
“Ye patron, is that you?”
Abbot Ling Tong recognized Ye Tian immediately and brought his hands together, performing a Buddhist salute.
Although unaware of why Ye Tian had climbed to the pavilion on the mountain’s peak, guests were always welcome, and Abbot Ling Tong was thoroughly hospitable.
However, Ye Tian couldn’t help but complain…
“Abbot Ling Tong, you destroyed the ‘Yu Gong Jiuzhou Map’ in Lingyin Temple, letting everyone in the Sima Family believe that I am the only one who knows about the ancient map of Jiang City.
The Sima Family has been bothering me incessantly; you have really caused me trouble!”
Facing Ye Tian’s reproach, Abbot Ling Tong did not shirk responsibility, but took it upon himself instead.
“Amitabha, Patron Ye, I had no choice.
Lingyin Temple has a great responsibility, and if it were to be destroyed by the Sima Family, how could I face the previous abbots of Lingyin Temple!
Therefore, seeing that Patron Ye is extremely powerful and capable of confronting the Sima Family, I decided to use that strength to shift the Sima Family’s animosity towards you!
And now, seeing that you are safe and sound, it seems that my actions were not incorrect!
The Sima Family indeed could do nothing to Patron Ye!”
Abbot Ling Tong’s words left Ye Tian unable to retort.
Yet on second thought, this old monk and the previous abbots of Lingyin Temple, guarding the ‘Yu Gong Jiuzhou Map’ just to prevent the tragedy that occurred a millennium ago from happening again, actually made it hard for Ye Tian to blame the old monk!
“Ling Tong, long time no see!”
When Ye Zhirong saw Abbot Ling Tong, he also greeted him.
Abbot Ling Tong, seeing Ye Zhirong, was so surprised he could hardly speak.
“You are…Patron…You are Patron Ye Zhirong…”
From Abbot Ling Tong’s expression, Ye Tian could tell he was extremely excited.
It seemed he not only knew Ye Zhirong but held him in high respect.
“I never thought I would see a member of the Ye Family in my lifetime.
Even if I were to die now, I could do so with peace of mind!”
Abbot Ling Tong brought his hands together continuously performing Buddhist salutes, demonstrating his profound reverence in front of Ye Zhirong.
“Ling Tong, you’ve worked hard!
Now, since the Ye Family has intervened, the Sima Family can no longer trouble Lingyin Temple.
Ling Tong, you can protect Jiang City with peace of mind!”
Ye Zhirong’s words deeply moved Abbot Ling Tong!
“Patron Ye, rest assured, I will fulfill my duties until the moment of my last breath!”
“…”
Ye Tian looked at Ye Zhirong and Abbot Ling Tong, the two elders.
Although they appeared to be of similar age, the way Abbot Ling Tong showed immense respect for Ye Zhirong indicated that Ye Zhirong was much older!
Ye Tian also felt a great reverence for the entire Lingyin Temple!
After the great disaster that occurred a thousand years ago, the temple was built by the imperial court to guard the peace of Jiang City!
Now, over a thousand years had passed, and the successive abbots of Lingyin Temple had performed their duties excellently, even though they did not know exactly what they were protecting, yet they continued to guard it with devotion!
A thousand years is not easily erased…
“Young man, Ling Tong and I have some old matters to discuss.
If you have other matters, please feel free to leave!”
Ye Zhirong suddenly said, which was essentially a dismissal of Ye Tian!
Ye Tian chuckled bitterly.
The two old men, nearly at their life’s end, what old matters could they possibly have to discuss?
But Ye Tian didn’t bother to stay as he indeed had urgent matters to attend to, so he didn’t care to listen to the old men’s chatter anymore.
“In that case, Mr.
Ye, I’ll be leaving now!
Rest assured, I’ve got the Sima Family’s matters in hand, and I will root them out when the time is right!”
In front of Ye Zhirong, Ye Tian declared confidently.
Ye Zhirong couldn’t help but give Ye Tian a thumbs up!
“Very well!
Young man, as a powerful individual, you should indeed have such spirit!
I’ll be waiting for your good news!”
“Until we meet again!”
Ye Tian waved at Ye Zhirong, then with a light leap, he jumped down from the summit of the mountain behind Lingyin Temple!
“Patron Ye, how could you…”
Abbot Ling Tong exclaimed in surprise, as the summit was at least several tens of meters high.
Why didn’t Ye Tian descend via the rock face but instead jumped straight down from the summit—such an act could easily result in injury.
“Don’t worry, this young man’s Qinggong is remarkable!”
Ye Zhirong just laughed, and Abbot Ling Tong, finally coming to his senses, carefully watched Ye Tian continuously falling through the air.
Ye Tian’s toes actually landed on a flying leaf.
With a light tap of his toes, his descending speed instantly slowed down a bit…
Several times in a row, Ye Tian did the same, relying on leaves and dust in the air to slow his fall.
This truly was an amazing skill, and Ling Tong felt bewildered…
“This…
this is…”
Ling Tong couldn’t believe his eyes.
Was there really a qinggong master this skilled in the world?
“Ling Tong, let him be.
I’ve rarely had the chance to meet you, and I will soon return to Erhe Town.
Let’s use this time to delve into Buddhism properly!”
Ye Zhirong pulled Ling Tong down to sit, and the two, having a rare moment of leisure, began to study Buddhism…
Meanwhile, Ye Tian, after leaping from the mountaintop, directly utilized his qinggong again and raced towards Jiangcheng!
Ye Tian hurried non-stop to the pedestrian plaza in Jiangcheng, which was still bustling.
Seeing these oblivious citizens, Ye Tian also felt reluctant…
Recalling what Ye Zhirong had told him, the Sima Family’s goal was to use the entire Jiangcheng as a crucible and to refine the Elixir of Life.
It was utterly inconceivable!
In ancient times, Jiangcheng had experienced a massacre, but back then the city’s population wasn’t as large as it is now.
If today, the Sima Family’s conspiracy succeeded again, the number of deaths would be calculated in millions, a staggering figure!
It seemed, for the sake of these innocent citizens, Ye Tian felt it necessary to help the Ye family eliminate the threat the Sima Family posed to Jiangcheng soon…
“Ye Tian!
You’re actually here!”
As Ye Tian was about to enter a shopping mall, his train of thought was interrupted by a voice.
He turned his head and, to his surprise, it was the policewoman Wang Ke’er.
At that moment, Wang Ke’er was dressed in plain clothes, not resembling a policewoman at all.
Although her chest was flat, matched with a suitable skirt, she would rival even Princess Tai Ping in charm…
“Taiping!
You’re actually here!”
Ye Tian unapologetically returned the words Wang Ke’er had said to him.
Wang Ke’er looked annoyed.
She looked at Ye Tian and directly asked, “Ye Tian, you still dare to joke with me?
That morning, after you encountered that old man, you chased after him.
You never told me how it ended!”
“The result…”
Facing the gossip-loving Wang Ke’er, Ye Tian deliberately drew out his speech.
“The result was that I fought with that guy.
Eventually, we were evenly matched and just went our separate ways back home.”
From Ye Tian’s remarks, Wang Ke’er clearly sensed disdain, and she was extremely displeased!
“Ye Tian, I was actually worried about you!
Can’t you speak properly?”
Suddenly, Ye Tian caught a loophole in Wang Ke’er’s words!
“‘I’?
Taiping, how come your words are becoming more feminine?”
Clearly mocking himself, Wang Ke’er’s cheeks turned red.
What was wrong with her, using words like “I” in front of Ye Tian?
“Humph!
What’s wrong with me using the word ‘I’?
Who says I can’t speak like this?”
Wang Ke’er decided to let it go, tired of explaining to Ye Tian.
Of course, what worried her most at the moment was the outcome of Ye Tian’s fight with that old man.
If the two really had a big fight, then the surrounding environment would be damaged…
of course, if the location of their fight had been in the wilderness, it could be negligible.
“Ye Tian, yesterday I met Yun Xinyan and talked with her about you!
She told me you’ve been leaving early and returning late recently, never knowing what you’re up to.
Yun Xinyan is also very worried about you.
She knows she can’t stop you, so she can only quietly pray for you!”
“Really?”
Ye Tian felt delighted.
Not expecting to hear about Yun Xinyan’s concerns from someone else, Ye Tian was overjoyed.
“So, Ye Tian, don’t act recklessly.
Gauge the extent of your actions.
In Jiangcheng, you’re not the only superhero; we police are not here for nothing!”
In front of Ye Tian, Wang Ke’er declared earnestly.
Ye Tian couldn’t help but size up Wang Ke’er, his eyes lingering on her chest for several seconds.
“What are you doing!?”
Realizing Ye Tian was staring at her chest, Wang Ke’er felt uncomfortable and spoke angrily.
Ye Tian chuckled and then added, “Nothing, I was just wondering if a person’s honesty is directly proportional to their chest size?”
“What do you mean by that?”
Wang Ke’er was agitated.
Ye Tian’s words not only ridiculed her small chest but also mocked her sincerity.
“No matter what, I’m still a police officer.
How can you not trust me?
Do police officers really appear so despicable in your eyes?”
