Chapter 1295: Intervention and Abandonment (5k)

Besides, based on my speculation, Wen Yan might have already ventured in twice.

That fellow truly has a kind heart, saved the courier twice, yet ended up being drawn in himself.

Forget it, you don’t need to worry, I’ll handle the rest. Prepare yourself, find an opportunity in these couple of days, and then leave.”

The Inverted Triangle Eyes said nothing, upon hearing these news, he felt distracted and even drinking lost its appeal.

After the third round of drinks, Flower Hair left, and the Inverted Triangle Eyes couldn’t sit still.

Of course, he knew why the power of the Yellow Immortal Child suddenly consumed itself out of thin air.

Because this was exactly what he quietly participated in years ago, an experiment that deceived that Yellow Immortal Child.

By condensing the other party’s power into tail hair, and combining it with several things, he carried out the dirty trick, eventually putting those items into the Old Dream.

This is one of the experiments.

Years ago, deceiving the Yellow Immortal Child provided it a way out, so that if one day it stumbled outside, it could still leave a glimmer of hope.

When the Old Dream arrives, the part he cast into the Old Dream will allow it to be reborn once more.

Which is also why he could appear in that small temple’s Old Dream.

Unfortunately, the experiment result wasn’t very ideal, the projection in the Old Dream is merely just a projection, sharing almost nothing with the Yellow Immortal Child outside, be it thoughts or memories.

Only occasionally, when the Yellow Immortal Child in the Old Dream uses too much power, will there be some resonance with the Yellow Immortal Child outside, consuming a bit of power, but the impact is minor and can recover.

Logically speaking, this should be purely a negative effect, though he managed to deceive it into thinking the experiment succeeded.

Upon hearing now that the Yellow Immortal Child in the Old Dream might have “blessed” Wen Yan, the Inverted Triangle Eyes couldn’t sit still.

He always felt that he should stop at nothing, finish off Wen Yan first.

But Flower Hair, although agreed with his thought, never allowed him to be too aggressive.

After leaving like this, he is unwilling.

He felt there was never a better opportunity than now.

If the Yellow Immortal Child gets dragged down this time, he might have no chance to utilize it later.

The Inverted Triangle Eyes was restless, finally gritted his teeth, dragged out a box from the underground building, and from one box rummaged out a standing Yellow Weasel Wood Carving, dressed in clothes.

He extended his pinky, forcefully scraped a wound on his arm with his nail, and smeared the blood on the little carving.

A moment later, the carving flickered faintly.

“What is it?”

“There’s a matter that must be brought to your attention…”

Elsewhere, Flower Hair left and came again to the stone wall, lightly stroked it, and a large door emerged from the stone wall, he entered, umbrella in hand.

Arrived at the courtyard where it’s always raining, he stood outside the main house.

“There’s a matter, for safety’s sake, must be brought to your attention.”

“What is it?”

“That Yellow Immortal Child has to be abandoned, there’s a task it must accomplish, its connection with the Old Dream is deep, and its power has started resonating. This isn’t a good sign, but it can impart special blessings to the current Scorching Sun. I think this might be the best way to handle it. The repercussions of killing the current Scorching Sun are uncontrollable, unpredictable. We might not be able to cope with such fierce retaliation. Yet destroying the current Scorching Sun without harming its life is the most suitable approach. That Yellow Immortal Child already came in contact with him in the Old Dream, its exposure is inevitable. Sooner or later it will be sought out, might as well let it accomplish the task. Destroy the current Scorching Sun.”

“Just a martial artist.” The Robed Man mentioned ‘martial artist’, sounding slightly disdainful.

“Even just a martial artist, he’s still the current Scorching Sun, even more dangerous than Scorching Sun itself. My third brother was indeed right, we’ve completely lost control over him. We can’t comprehend how, or why, he manages to do all these things. Not killing him, but destroying him, is the best choice.”

The Robed Man listened quietly, after a long while suddenly asked.

“Are you going to forsake your third brother too?”

Flower Hair remained calm and replied.

“Indecision leads to chaos, he won’t heed me, since he insists on doing it, I’ll clean up after him, solve the follow-up matters, and maximize the benefits.”

“You indeed show ruthless determination, can accomplish grand feats.” The Robed Man remarked in admiration.

Flower Hair said nothing further, turned and left.

He left the courtyard, returned to his residence, didn’t go to see the Inverted Triangle Eyes anymore.

He knows what the Inverted Triangle Eyes has done and even knows what he’s about to do next.

To quell the anger of the Scorching Sun Department, preventing matters from escalating to the point where the big shots of the Three Mountains and Five Ridges interfere and make the situation increasingly difficult to control and resolve, someone has to take the fall.

Just the hall won’t suffice, a few demons aren’t enough, a few people aren’t enough, the Yellow Immortal Child isn’t enough, it has to be someone of enough substance, truly qualified to give orders.

And the most perfect scapegoat, none more suitable than the true one who gave orders for these things.

Because all those matters, indeed, were perpetrated by the Inverted Triangle Eyes.

His third brother himself willingly, at all costs, to destroy the current Scorching Sun, he couldn’t stop him, thus can only lend a hand to refine it.

Flower Hair sat in his room, quietly waiting.

After mere tens of minutes passed, in the ever-raining courtyard, a figure wearing clothes, standing upright, with a big straw hat covering the whole body, the Huang Pi Zi appeared outside the main house.

“Master, there’s a matter that requires your guidance…”

“Go ahead.” The Robed Man only left those words.

“I understand.” The Huang Pi Zi bowed, turned and left.
