"Hehe, Brother Gu, you're already so old but your heart is still so young. I'm impressed!" The skinny elder smiled and closed fist saluted.
Gu Yue waved his hand. "No matter how old I am, I'm still a man. Brother Ding, you haven't seen this Second Lady Xiao. She's indeed the number one beauty of the Great Ji Dynasty. She's so beautiful that only Lord Kong Hai could do it. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to kill her!"
"How could it be that unbelievable?" The skinny elder shook his head in disbelief.
Gu Yue scoffed. "Brother Ding, you have to believe me. Second Lady Xiao is a true lady from a wealthy family. Not many people have seen her. How could she be so famous? She's really beautiful! There are many beauties in the Fairy's Capital. Even in the Imperial Residence and the Palace, there are beauties everywhere. But compared to Second Lady Xiao, they can't compare at all. A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. It's definitely true! "
"Has the Royal Highness seen Second Lady Xiao?" Ding Jian asked.
Gu Yue shook his head. "I think he hasn't."
"Oh?" Ding Jian asked. "Why do you think so?"
"I heard that the Royal Highness saw Second Lady Xiao when he was young. He was still a baby then. I thought about it and felt that the Royal Highness might not have seen the adult Second Lady Xiao. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so cruel! "Gu Yue shook his head.
"The Royal Highness has great ambitions. How could he tolerate love?" Ding Jian scoffed.
Gu Yue shook his head. "For a beauty like Second Lady Xiao, I'm willing to give up my country."
"Brother Gu, you're really smitten by Second Lady Xiao!" Ding Jian shook his head and laughed.
"You'll know when you see her." Gu Yue scoffed.
As they spoke, they arrived at a patch of new soil.
Gu Yue pointed and sighed with some melancholy. "It's here!"
No matter what kind of beauty she was, she would still become one in the end. Yellow soil really made people sad.
Ding Jian looked at it. "Let's dig it!"
Gu Yue pressed his palms together and mumbled.
He asked Second Lady Xiao's spirit in heaven not to be offended. He was just following orders, which made Ding Jian quite disapproving. He felt that he was a coward and did not look like a Grandmaster at all.
"I'll do it!" Ding Jian said.
He stretched out his hands. His skin immediately stuck to his bones. He was bony and bony like the talons of a golden eagle. His hands turned into two claws.
Its claws dug down fiercely. The soil was as soft as tofu under his claws. In the blink of an eye, he had already dug a large pit.
Ding Jian stood in the pit and dug out as he said, "Brother Gu, you really dug deep!"
Gu Yue's expression was solemn.
Ding Jian felt that something was amiss. Look up at him.
Gu Yue said in a low voice, "Brother Ding, he's gone!"
"Gone?" Ding Jian's expression changed slightly.
Gu Yue pointed at Ding Jian's feet. "I've already dug too deep. I didn't dig this deep! Where can he go? "
Ding Jian leaped onto the grass and his face darkened. "There's trouble!"
"... Brother Ding, are you saying that they might still be alive?" Gu Yue hesitated.
His heart was strangely relieved. Siao Shi's beautiful face flashed in front of his eyes. If such a beauty could come back to life, it would be a blessing!
Ding Jian asked, "Someone saved them?"
Gu Yue shook his head. "I stood guard here for two days and two nights. No one came. … At that time, Kong Hai the Revered One chased after Chu Li for two days and two nights. In the end, he killed two people here. Kong Hai the Revered One transformed into a Buddha. … After killing them, Kong Hai the Revered One returned to the Titanium Temple. I buried the two people and examined them carefully. Their bodies were stiff. Even the Spirit Blessing Pill couldn't save them! "
"No one saved them. They're completely dead. How did they disappear? "Ding Jian scoffed.
He looked deeply at Gu Yue with suspicion.
Gu Yue immediately understood his gaze. He frowned and said, "Brother Ding. You suspect that I'm behind this? "
"I don't want anything else. I just want to cut off their heads and present it to His Royal Highness." Ding Jian said.
"Brother Ding, you must be thinking that I saved them right?" Gu Yue said coldly. He stroked his snowy beard and squinted his eyes. "I don't care about the life and death of Feng Huang Mountain. Save a dead person? "
"Alright, alright. Brother Gu, of course I don't think so." Ding Jian squeezed out a smile. "No matter how foolish you are, you wouldn't do such a thing! … But where did they go? "
"That's easy!" Gu Yue said coldly. "Ask the Revered One Kong Hai to make a move again. Use the All-Seeing Divine Power and we'll know!"
"Makes sense." Ding Jian nodded. "Unfortunately, Kong Hai the Revered One has already returned to the temple. Why don't we make a trip to the Titanium Temple?"
"Let's go!" Gu Yue scoffed. "… It's just that Kong Hai the Revered One said he's going into isolated cultivation. I'm not sure if we can get him to help."
Ding Jian looked at him. His suspicions grew. "Isolated cultivation?"
Gu Yue said, "Kong Hai the Revered One had some enlightenment. He might become a Buddha."
"Hehe …" Ding Jian's smile became more and more incorporeal.
That's too much of a coincidence. Isolated cultivation, hehe!
"Let's go. We'll ask Kong Hai the Revered One!" Gu Yue scoffed angrily.
The two of them turned and left the mountainside.
Siao Shi looked at Chu Li. "We can't pretend to be dead anymore!"
She originally hoped that once she died, Prince An would give up and stop tormenting them.
She never thought that Prince An would be so careful. He even wanted to check again. Once the matter was exposed, it meant that their peaceful days were over!
Siao Shi asked, "Change the location?"
Chu Li shook his head. "There's no rush."
"Are we waiting for them to find us? If the old monk comes again, we won't be so lucky!" Siao Shi said.
Chu Li smiled.

The Titanium Temple was a temple on the mountainside. It was hard to imagine that such a simple and unadorned temple was one of the four major sects, the Titanium Temple.
Gu Yue and Ding Jian came to the front of the Titanium Temple. They knocked on the tightly shut door.
The color of the door faded. There were only a few pieces of red paint left.
After a while, an old monk with a face full of age spots opened the door. His movements were hesitant and difficult. It made people worry if he had the strength to take the next step.
Gu Yue pressed his palms together. "Greetings, Revered One. We are here to pay our respects to Revered One Kong Hai."
"Kong Hai?" The old monk's eyes were cloudy. He asked slowly, "Who is Kong Hai?"
Gu Yue said seriously, "Revered One Kong Hai just returned to the temple a few days ago. He said he wanted to go into isolated cultivation. We have important matters to attend to, so we can only disturb Revered One Kong Hai's isolated cultivation. We hope that Revered One will make things convenient for us!"
"Oh …" The old monk nodded slowly. "I will go and see if there is a person named Kong Hai."
"Thank you, Revered One." Gu Yue pressed his palms together.
The old monk closed the temple door again. His slow footsteps gradually faded away.
Ding Jian looked at the Titanium Temple. He frowned at Gu Yue.
Gu Yue smiled. "Brother Ding, do you think we came to the wrong place?"
"Is this really the Titanium Temple?" Ding Jian asked.
There were cracks on the temple's walls. It looked like it would collapse at any time. It looked like it was caused by poor management. It should have been repaired a long time ago.
Gu Yue said, "Brother Ding, the Titanium Temple is different from the Tempest Temple. You will know in the future."
Ding Jian shook his head. "I would like to see it for myself."
He thought of the old monk. "But isn't it too difficult to have such an old man guard the door?"
"There must be a deeper meaning." Gu Yue said.
The two did not see anything special about the old monk. He was just an old monk. He was not a master.
After a while, the old monk opened the door and let them in. "Go straight and turn left. The second room is Kong Hai's."
"Thank you, Revered One." Gu Yue hurriedly said.
The two entered the courtyard.
