Chapter 524 - The Future of Green Mountain

And he had been holding that cat the entire time!

This habit had commenced more than six hundred years ago.

“A few days ago,” replied Jing Jiu.

More importantly, Jing Jiu was still very young.

Countless astounded and admirable gazes fell on Jing Jiu.

Yet, there was another insignificant but puzzling issue.

By now everybody understood why the Immortal Liu Ci would write such a Will.

He cast his sight on the future.

Elder Mo Chi and other elders and disciples of Tianguang Peak did the same.

Yet, Guo Nanshan, Gu Han and others were well aware of why Jing Jiu had done it.

It was something that had happened a great many years ago.

It was regarding Liu Shisui.

Zhuo Rusui stared at Jing Jiu, the expression in his eyes complicated.

Jing Jiu was familiar with the expression in Zhuo Rusui’s eyes.

It contained the expectation, admiration, and helplessness.

As he thought of Yuan Qijing, his sword arrived.

The wild grass on the top of Tianguang Peak was covered with a layer of frost.

The voice of Yuan Qijing came out from the Three-Foot Sword amid the thin snow.

Jing Jiu didn’t give a response.

Everybody looked at Jing Jiu.

Jing Jiu asked without a second thought, “What’s the matter?”

Jing Jiu took a look at Zhuo Rusui and shook his head.

Zhuo Rusui felt indignant, as he yelled, “Young Senior Master!”

Jing Jiu uttered “hmm”.

Jing Jiu said, “You’re too smart; you’re not suitable for it.”

“I’ll let you take charge of Tianguang Peak for the time being.”

“I’ve never lived here. I’m not used to it,” said Jing Jiu.

He began to wonder if what had happened today was his illusion.

Was he still behind closed doors? And was the thought his own crazy idea?

Jing Jiu and Zhao Layue were in the highest manor cave on Shenmo Peak.

The starlight streamed down from the roof of the cave, shining upon them.

The three disciples of Shenmo Peak began to speak nonsense after the initial shock.

Jing Jiu was rather calm though.

Accordingly, this was a demotion.

As such, there was nothing for him to feel excited about.

Well, it would be different if Liu Ci could come back.

“Gu Qing has said that one had to convince all the others to become the sect master.”

On the current Green Mountain, his true backers were Yuan Qijing and Ada.

In the beginning, this was a possible outcome.

Jing Jiu uttered “hmm”.

“If you lost today, what would you do then?” Zhao Layue demanded.

Jing Jiu said, “I’ll go to somewhere else.”

She had never thought that he would opt to leave Green Mountain someday.

It was unclear what was on Nan Wang’s mind.

Jing Jiu was worried about Ada.

It was a matter of who had come here first.

Jing Jiu added, “It’s enough to kill people like that for once.”

Zhao Layue understood what he meant; she fell silent.

Along with the fluttering sound, a green bird flew out from it.
