Chapter 234 Who Did Mr. Buddha Come For?

Su Xiaoxiao wanted to throw herself at Xiao Bing, but she had to suppress that urge when she saw Ye Xiaoxi sitting there. Her eyes were all red. “Brother Bing, are you badly wounded?” she asked.

“I’m fine. Your Brother Bing is invulnerable. Hahaha.” The smile on his face was huge. But then it faded and there seemed to a lightning flash in his eyes. “It’s not easy for them to kill me.”

Lil Bei came over as well and lifted the sheet covering Xiao Bing. He took a glance at the wounds on Xiao Bing’s body and placed the sheet back. The smile on his face disappeared. “Who did this?” he asked gravely.

“I’ve already killed him.”

“Who?”

Xiao Bing hesitated. He didn’t want to lie to his friend, but that man weighed heavily on his mind. “A follower of Buddhism.”

“Buddhism?”

All others, even Su Xiaoxiao, were probably wondering how Xiao Bing offended these monks because they were usually peaceful people. But Lil Bei knew what happened. The mirth on his face ebbed somewhat. He spoke sternly, “Is he one of Mr. Buddha’s men? If that was the case, I’m afraid that it was indeed Mr. Buddha and the traitor who once served you who conspired to kill Peiya. And now they tried to kill you when they saw you on your own.”

“They probably didn’t know my location, otherwise they wouldn’t have sent only one man. I assume they must have known that it was once Su Peiya’s home and were wondering if I was living there now. That’s why they sent only one man. Now that this man is dead, it is logical for them to assume that I’m here.”

“So what do we do now?” Lil Bei got fretful when he thought of Xiao Bing’s currently sealed strength. “Brother Bing, now most of your power is sealed. Why don’t we come back to the Dragon Teeth. I’m sure Mr. Buddha wouldn’t dare do anything to you if you have the Dragon Teeth behind you.

Xiao Bing’s face turned gloomy. He stared at Lil Bei and asked, “You mean that I should let the Dragon Gate protect me?”

Xiao Bing hastily answered, “I know Brother Bing doesn’t need anyone’s protection and you don’t want to be protected by the man who used to follow you. But given your present situation…”

“Impossible!” Looking very stern, Xiao Bing shook his head, “You don’t understand. I don’t feel ashamed about being protected by my friends. Actually, I had nothing to do with the Dragon Teeth three and a half year ago…”

Xiao Bing took a deep breath and spoke while looking at Lil Bei, “There are things that can’t be forgotten for a whole lifetime. Do you understand?”

“I understand.” Lil Bei’s eyes dimmed a little. “I’m sorry, Brother Bing, we all failed you.”

“Silly boy, do you think that I resent you for that? No, it’s my own choice and I can understand that some of the brotherhood hate me. It’s just sometimes we need to choose our own path and stick with it, no matter how ragged it is. The reason why I don’t want to go back is because the Dragon Teeth is a tight rope now. It’s at its strongest. I don’t want to see it fall apart because of my return. For instance, if there was a brother who didn’t want me under his protection, wouldn’t there be a conflict between you and him?”

Lil Bei grew silent. Just as Xiao Bing had told him, there were still some brothers in Dragon Teeth who still couldn’t accept the truth that three years ago Xiao Bing chose those criminals over them. They loved Xiao Bing but also hated him. Up to now, Xiao Bing was still scarcely mentioned among its members. And this time Xiao Bing’s resources in the headquarters forced Dragon Teeth to allow Lil Bei to come to Xiao Bing’s aid.

Lil Bei asked, “Should we return to the Dragon Gate now? If we have the protection of the Dragon Gate, I’m sure even Mr. Buddha can’t do anything to you. After all, the Dragon Gate you established was made of the best of the best masters at that time. But you haven’t recovered you strength. If we go back there and fall into that traitor’s trap…”

Xiao Bing grinned when he saw Lil Bei’s anxiety, “Stop worrying about me. The gods have a plan for us all. Besides, I am gradually regaining my strength. I shall be invincible when that day comes. Who can kill me?”

Xiao Bing’s eyes turned grim. “When that day comes, whoever had a part in Peiya’s murder shall be sent to hell by me.”

Even so, Lil Bei was still worried. But he knew Xiao Bing’s temperament. No one could force him to do something he didn’t want to do.

Xiao Bing sighed, “I just don’t understand how this person found the place. Even our brothers at the Dragon Gate didn’t know Peiya’s birthplace. How can someone from the Buddhism…”

The door was suddenly pushed open with a squeak. Then the staff of the noodle house flooded in. Xiao Bing gasped, “Why are you guys all here?”

Then he felt his heart warmed because he realized that he was not alone. Indeed, he still had so many brothers and sisters. They surrounded him and twittered their concern for him. But Gao Fei was just standing on one side watching. Lil Bei looked at him and still found this man unfathomable. Once again he was surprised. He didn’t understand why a powerful master like him was willing to stay in such a small noodle house. He wondered if it was because of Xiao Bing’s charisma.

After everyone had said what they wanted to say, Gao Fei walked over to Xiao Bing to examine the wounds on his body. He seemed thoughtful when he finished. “I want to speak to the boss in private, so will you all please give us a moment?” Gao Fei suddenly asked.

There was a mysterious look of reluctance in little Maggie’s eyes. Xiao Bing noticed it after he looked at Gao Fei. Then he bobbed his head.

The others didn’t know what happened. But since the two had something to say in private, no one protested. They all left one by one.

Xiao Bing looked at Gao Fei and said, “Tell me what you want to say. Are you leaving?”

“Yes, we will leave here soon,” said Gao Fei placidly.

Xiao Bing smiled, “Then I can only wish you all the best. Can you tell me where you plan to go?”

“I don’t know. It’s a big world.” Looking at Xiao Bing, Gao Fei said, “From your wounds, I can tell that you’d encountered an extremely powerful master. You tried everything to rip the space apart and kill your enemy at an unexpected moment, which did great harm to your arm. If you weren’t Xiao Bing, you would have lost an arm. But Boss, your body seems different from others. You can recover within a few days.”

“You really are observant. I still don’t know your identity, nor your real strength, ” Xiao Bing complimented.

“The reason I choose to leave now is not because I’m afraid that I’ll drag you down. Instead, I fear that you might involve me in your troubles.”

When Gao Fei spoke of his leaving, Xiao Bing did surmise that Gao Fei realized this was a place full of troubles, so he chose to leave fearing that one day he would be endangered. Though Xiao Bing knew that Gao Fei was not afraid of death, he knew this man had a sister, who was of immense importance to Gao Fei. It was reasonable for him to keep Maggie danger. Xiao Bing understood it, so he said nothing. He did not even try to persuade Gao Fei to stay.

However, upon hearing that Gao Fei didn’t want to be involved, Xiao Bing gasped. He did not doubt its truthfulness. Because men like Gao Fei hated lying to others the most.

Though Gao Fei always seemed aloof, now his face changed a little and there were emotions in his voice. “The enemy you met is called the Vicious Demon, a Buddha from the Dark World. Buddhism stands for mercy, yet this demon was born in the Dark World. Mr. Buddha’s formidable might brought him the services of countless powerful masters who once lived as recluses in the Dark World. These masters aren’t as well-known as those of Dragon Gate, but their strength is not inferior to anyone. Hence, the Buddhism and the Dragon Gate was regarded as the two biggest organization in the Dark World, as Mr. Buddha and Mr. Dragon were called the two Young Masters in the Dark World.”

Xiao Bing nodded and listened quietly. He didn’t tell all of this to Gao Fei. Actually, Gao Fei didn’t even know Xiao Bing’s true identity. But it was not strange for a powerful master like Gao Fei to know these secrets.

“Allegedly Mr. Buddha reached the Gang-strength a long time ago. Rumors even have it that he might have reached the level of Void-breaking. His body and physical strength are all unfathomable to mortals. He’s as mysterious as the ocean. Besides, he has countless top masters of the Dark World. If he wants to kill someone, I’m afraid that there is no chance of survival for that person.”

“Yet there are two people who managed to escape and even disappeared. Even these killers from Buddhism could not find them.”

It was not until then that Xiao Bing realized the truth. “You mean those monks were coming after you?” he asked aghast.

“Or Maggie…more specifically.”

“Who are you exactly?” asked Xiao Bing in bewilderment.

Gao Fei answered respectfully, “I’m your worker and you’re my boss. My other identities are all in the past. But since these monks have tracked us, we should not stay here. They are far scarier than the underground world or Lord Long. If we remained here, even you, boss, are sure to die!”
