True Identity
West Star Village.
Mo Kongwen bid farewell to Old Lin and prepared to return.
Although Old Man Lin tried his best to persuade Mo Kongwen to stay for a few more days and had a few drinks with Old Man Lin, he still had to leave.
He had completed his mission this time and successfully helped Lin Yi overcome the calamity. Therefore, it was time for him to go back and continue his secluded cultivation to break through that barrier …
"Old friend, I have to go now. Take care!" Mo Kongwen smiled at Old Lin who was standing at the entrance of the village.
"This time … Lil 'Yi will have to rely on himself." Old Lin sighed, "I don't know what those two are thinking, asking you to protect Lil 'Yi … Although it's not exactly smooth sailing, at least there won't be so many hidden houses looking for trouble with him anymore …"
Mo Kongwen could only smile bitterly when he heard Old Man Lin's words. Only Old Man Lin, who had been through life and death with them, would dare to call those two 'fellas'.
"Master and he both had their own considerations. You should know that if iron isn't tempered, it won't become steel. If jade isn't carved, it won't become a tool!" Mo Kongwen continued, "Moreover, before he reaches that level, I can only fight him a few times a year. If I do it more than twice, I won't be able to explain it to my master. Moreover, some forces are out of our control. Thirteen years have passed … You and I haven't had many breakthroughs because of our innate talents. However, the ancient sects and hidden families are producing many talents. Especially the hidden families, there have been a few Heaven Ranked Masters appearing in recent years. This worries me …"
"That's right, your worries are exactly what I'm worried about. The hidden aristocratic families are slowly getting out of control, but this is inevitable. Those two fellows aren't here anymore, and with just us two brothers, we won't be able to intimidate those Heaven Ranked experts. Especially me … I can't leave yet …" Old Lin smiled bitterly.
"But … Master must have his reasons for making this arrangement …" Mo Kongwen sighed. Actually, even he couldn't predict Lin Yi's fate. It was just like what was written in the ancient records. Once an ancient scroll was obtained, the person's fate would change. The more exquisite the ancient scroll, the more unpredictable the person's fate would be. Mo Kongwen didn't believe it before, but the first time he predicted that Lin Yi was in trouble, he failed. At that time, Lin Yi had already become a Mystic Ranked Master, which surprised Mo Kongwen.
From then on, Mo Kongwen couldn't predict Lin Yi's fate accurately. So, he decided not to predict it anymore.
After saying goodbye, Mo Kongwen disappeared in the blink of an eye. Old Lin didn't find it strange at all. He just turned around and walked back …
When Mo Kongwen returned to his place, his face changed slightly when he saw the communicator in the house!
Mo Kongwen did not dare to be negligent. He sat cross-legged on an Eight Trigrams Diagram and began to calculate … After a while, Mo Kongwen opened his eyes. The result of the calculation made him shudder with fear!
Mo Kongwen dialed Old Lin's number again.
The last time they contacted each other in the West Star Mountain Village was the first time they contacted each other using the communicator. However, this time, they contacted each other directly through the phone.
"Old friend, have you returned to your place?" Old Lin asked.
"Old friend Lin, there's a problem …" Mo Kongwen said solemnly.
"Problem? What problem? "Old Lin was startled and asked.
"The hidden families … might be stirring up trouble!" Mo Kongwen said.
"Hidden families? How can they stir up trouble? As long as the Earth class doesn't come out, with Little Yi's skills and his friends, no one will be able to touch him! "Old Lin said, confused.
"But … what if those hidden families don't want to abide by the agreement?" Mo Kongwen sighed. "After all, he and the master have been gone for so many years. The hidden families' arbitration association's control over the hidden families is getting weaker and weaker. Plus, I've been in isolation to break through that barrier. I don't believe that they won't be restless … Plus, I just did a divination. The hidden families' power structure … is about to change …"
"What! At this time, they … "Old Lin was shocked." You're saying that the masters above the Earth class are about to come out … "
"Heh … After enduring for so many years, anyone would be tempted …" Mo Kongwen said. "If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have let Little Yi go back no matter what. If he stayed by your side to recover, even if they send Sky class masters, hehe, they won't be able to come back!"
"But, I'm worried about Little Yi right now …" Old Lin said hurriedly.
"I didn't think that the hidden families would use this method to test me …" Mo Kongwen said and told Old Lin about the communicator. Yes, Mo Kongwen was the grand elder of the hidden families' arbitration association!
However, because of what happened all those years ago, the founder of the association left and he went into isolation to break through that final barrier. He wanted to reach the peak of his power before the opening of Sky Island, enter the Heavenly Path, and find his master …
So, according to the promise he made to his master, he could only come out to help when Lin Yi was in irreversible danger. However, there was a clear rule — he couldn't come out more than twice a year!
This was a restriction for him and also for Lin Yi! If he always thought about having a backer, then he would not think about making progress and develop a lazy character.
If he exceeded this limit, then what awaited Mo Kongwen would be the most severe punishment!
Mo Kongwen regretted wasting his first chance this year, and now his second chance had been used up as well. In other words, no matter what danger there was, he couldn't come out anymore!
"Looks like these people planned this!" Old Lin couldn't help but feel angry. "If Little Yi didn't leave, hehe, those ancient sects would have to give him face. Now, these new hidden houses are shaking their heads …"
"Old friend Lin, call the people around Little Yi and tell them to hide and avoid this. Don't give them a chance!" Mo Kongwen said. "But, they might not target Little Yi."
This was also because Mo Kongwen didn't know about Yu Huoxing and the qi gathering pill, or that Zhao Qibing had become the heir of House Zhao. If he knew, he wouldn't have said this.
