Chapter 1366 - Keeper Ling’s Outrage (4)
Chapter 1366 “Keeper Ling’s Outrage (4)”
Bang!
This time Keeper Ling didn’t waste a single word. Coming right behind the yellow robed elder, he slams down with a palm strike for real, which was met with a countering palm strike as well.
The exchange quickly created a huge invisible storm in the air as their fighting dragged out, sending all of the debris flying in all direction. The most notable would be the surviving trees in the nearby garden. It survived the previous battle when Bai Yan attacked, but the poor greeneries got obliterated into nothingness this time around.
“What are you all doing?!” Eventually the huge fighting had attracted the attention of the remaining Keepers.
When they ran over to investigate, all they saw were the huge brawl between the two opposing comrades. Undoubtedly a frown crept into their faces due to this, but more confused by what’s going on.
Eventually an elder by the name of Keeper Blue stepped in to put a stop to this, “Keeper Ling, why are you attacked Keeper Yellow? Explain yourself right now!”
The grumpy old elder sneered at the question directed his way. As annoyed as he was, he still wouldn’t go crazy mad yet and spoke with clear disdain in that voice: “You still want to ask me that? Me and Keeper Zun only left for a short period and you’re all going for each other’s throat! Look at this mess! And who is the one that killed Keeper Red, get that person out here to see me now!”
“You speak nonsense!” Keeper Yellow snapped at the accusation. Pointing his finger like he couldn’t believe the ridiculousness of it all, “Quit trying to find excuses! I know its because you don’t like me that you’re making up words, that’s why you’re looking for trouble!”
When did they start fighting among ourselves? Why doesn’t he know? On the contrary, it’s Keeper Ling who attacked him first without a word of explanation, it’s clear to the yellow robed elder who was the bad one in this fight!
“Both of you stop first!” It’s then Keeper Zun who was still showing an ugly face decides to cut in. Turning to the rest of the group who had just arrived, “Tell me the details, what happened during this period while me and Keeper Ling was away? How did Keeper Red die?”
Unlike the grumpy old timer who started the fight, Keeper Zun was clearly the more level headed one among the pair. After hearing bits and pieces, he could already tell something was amiss.
“From the day you three left, the Celestial Palace was attacked in multiple locations. First it was the training ground for the elite disciples, then the back mountain where we planted the herbs and such. In order to catch the perpetrators, we and the rest of us here went out in two groups, leaving only Keeper Red behind to watch over the place in case someone snuck in.”
That finally brought some sanity back into Keeper Ling’s face. Slowly putting down his fist, he wanted to believe the story but still appeared skeptical.
R“But we did not expect that girl to return, and she also brought the old coot with her! I’m not sure if our former brother recovered his strength or not, but according to the pieces of scars and information we have gathered, Keeper Red and the rest of the corpses here were likely killed by those two.”
What?
The explanation was akin to a thunder clap to the ear, sending both Keeper Ling and Zun into a shocked look of dismay.
“You mean Keeper Red is killed by the crazy old coot?” The grump keeper asks with clenched fists.
How did that old coot regain his former strength?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
“Yes, according to Ruo Xi’s words, it is likely the case. I’m sure I don’t need to explain the girl’s personality and character to you, she wouldn’t lie. If Keeper Red didn’t push the lass away and forced her to flee, I can already see Ruo Xi dying with everyone else that you see here.”
Such a good girl, why does the Celestial Lord not like her?
In comparison, Bai Yan can’t even be qualified to lick her shoes. How can two people who grew up together be so vastly different?
