Chapter 2270

This little brat, Hui Ji, was such a cheat!

Shouldn’t this bastard be the real protagonist instead of Qi Yi?

Zhao Bo must’ve looked for the young monk Hui Ji to have him analyze Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts.

Ning Shu needed to see how Hui Ji would analyze it.

The forged Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts she gave Zhao Bo was 90% correct. Only a few crucial points in it were subtly wrong.

When Ning Shu arrived at the study, several scabbard-holding disciples were guarding the entrance. They stopped her and told her, “Master is busy. He’s not seeing anyone right now.”

Ning Shu pushed away the person in front of her even as he said, “You can’t go in.”

She opened the door and walked in.

Zhao Bo frowned and said, a little displeased, “What are you doing?”

“I heard that the little monk can analyze martial arts, so I came to see.” Ning Shu sat down.

“You have no manners. Look at the fine things you did today.” A good morale-raising meeting had turned into a disaster.

Zhao Bo felt that he had lost his dignity as a leader.

“Uncle, those people are just worthless mobs. They cannot be relied on.” Ning Shu looked at Hui Ji.

Hui Ji was holding the forged Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts book.

He was holding something everyone in the martial world desired after. However, there was not even a flash of greed in his limpid eyes.

He had a wisdom that surpassed many people. He had no greed even though he was encountering treasures, which was rather terrifying.

On the other hand, Ning Shu would be excited whenever she encountered a treasure. She was a follower of human instinct, which wanted to pursue beautiful and precious things.

Hui Ji, however, tsk tsk…

“Have you figured anything out yet?” Ning Shu asked Hui Ji.

Hui Ji shook his head. “I haven’t found anything yet. This book is extremely complicated, but according to my deduction, I have yet to find any faults.”

“Little monk, you reflect and ponder things every day. Your brain must need a lot of energy, but the food in the temple is all vegetarian food. What nutrition can it provide you? You’re overtaxing your body,” Ning Shu lightly said.

“Not to mention that you’re a child. You are missing what your body needs to grow,” Ning Shu endlessly chattered.

It was probably strenuous to analyze the book. Hui Ji’s forehead was sweating, and his face had turned pale.

“Quiet, Yi. Don’t disturb the young master.” Zhao Bo glared at Ning Shu.

Ning Shu shrugged and said nothing more.

Hui Ji put down the rare book. He looked a little tired. “Benefactor Zhao, please allow this novice monk a few days.”

“I’ve troubled Young Master Hui Ji. Please, stay in Zhao Clan Stronghold for the time being,” Zhao Bo said.

Hui Ji performed a Buddhist mudra and left Zhao Bo’s study.

Ning Shu stood up and said to Zhao Bo, “Uncle, how could you give him the rare book? With his intelligence, I’m afraid he’s already memorized the contents.”

Hui Ji was a person with an extremely high IQ.

“There’s no harm in it,” Zhao Bo replied. “Only a few people in this world can anatomize rare books. If the book is fake, I will have practiced it for nothing. It may even cause me to experience spiritual deviation and the demonic sect would be able to injure me seriously without much effort.”

“Can we believe that little monk?”

“I don’t believe in any other monks from Illusory Temple, but Hui Ji is different. His Buddhist heart is stauncher than any other monk,” Zhao Bo said.

“Also, if you do anything as reckless as you did today, I will kick you out of Zhao Clan Stronghold. How many times have I told you this? Don’t bring the ways of the demonic sect here. This place is not the Sacred Demonic Cult.”

“I know, I know.” Ning Shu left the study impatiently. When she saw Hui Ji outside, her heart was full of malice.

His Buddha’s heart was stubborn indeed. She wondered exactly how stubborn his Buddha’s heart actually was.
