Chapter 30: Going Back.

Edited by: Mochiusagi

In the room.

Eunuch Hong’s scalp was numb, his mind chaotic.

As a red-clothed eunuch in the Palace, Eunuch Hong naturally knows how terrifying condensing a Divine Sense is.

Anyone of the Peak Grade 1 can suppress everything with just a gesture. Why do you think the Wudang Mountain True Martial lineage can ignore the Imperial power and resist the decree? Why do you think the Meng Yuan Empire can occupy the endless Grassland and glare at the Southern Central Plains, like a tiger watching his prey?

It is precisely because they have a Peak Grade 1 backing them! It is something that people simply cannot imagine.

Eunuch Hong didn’t even dare dream of it. And the Shaolin Temple, which was supposed to be declining, has a Peak Grade 1?

“Grandpa Hong…”

Empress Li, who’s inside the curtain, saw this reaction of Eunuch Hong’s. Although she doesn’t know what happened, she was worried about the thing that brought out such a sudden reaction.

Eunuch Hong was her confidant. Without the protection of Eunuch Hong, she would not know how many times she would have died.

And currently, Eunuch Hong was regarded as her pillar. If even he has such an expression of trembling fear, how can she not worry?

“Empress, no need to panic…”

Eunuch Hong barely reacted as he proceeded to bow in the empty air:

“Forgive this old slave Hong Yuan, to have just discovered the Holy Monk…”

Eunuch Hong was very clear that although the Peak Grade 1 was not here, but with Divine Sense, all the movement in the room they’re in, was completely visible to the Holy Monk.

After a while.

The Divine Sense soon retreated, and Eunuch Hong finally relaxed.

“Grandpa Hong, what happened?” Empress Li saw Eunuch Hong’s expression and realized that the matter had already passed, then asked quickly.

“What happened?”

Eunuch Hong smiled bitterly: “Empress, a Holy Monk from the Shaolin Temple just sent his Divine Sense over… “

“Holy Monk?”

“Divine Sense?”

Empress Li was dumbfounded.

Although she is the most beloved concubine of Emperor Tang, she does not know much about Martial Dao.

At most, she only knows that Martial Artists are divided into 9 Grades, with Grade 1 being the highest and Grade 9 being the lowest.

As for the others, she doesn’t know.

“Empress…”

Eunuch Hong sensed the Empress’s doubts. After some thought, he said: “The Empress only needs to know that this Holy Monk is the same as Eunuch Zhao of His Majesty…”

“Eunuch Zhao…”

Empress Li trembled in her heart.

Eunuch Zhao is second only to Emperor Tang.

Eunuch Zhao is the only purple clothed eunuch in the Tang Empire, and his status is equal to that of a prince.

Currently the Emperor is dying, which caused chaos within the Palace in the right for power. But no matter how bad the situation is, as long as Emperor Tang does not die so suddenly, the Tang Empire (as in the territory) will not fall into chaos.

Why?

It is precisely because of the purple clothed eunuch next to Emperor Tang.

This purple clothed eunuch, with just his strength alone, suppressed the court officials and the princes to the point that they dared not mess around.

Empress Li did not expect that Eunuch Hong’s evaluation of this Holy Monk was so high, that it was equal to Eunuch Zhao.

It’s incredible!

“Grandpa Hong, if the Shaolin Temple has such a powerhouse, then aren’t we in danger…?”

Empress Li suddenly thought of something and asked in a low voice.

“Empress is worrying too much…” Eunuch Hong said with a bitter smile: “If that Holy Monk had the intent to kill, we would already have become skeletons right now. And even if His Majesty would know about it, he wouldn’t raise any objection.”

Eunuch Hong’s expression was complicated.

No matter how much the Palace spoils Empress Li, it will never try to stir conflict against a Peak Grade 1 for her.

“Empress.”

“It is actually a good thing that there is a Holy Monk in the Shaolin Temple.”

Eunuch Hong paused and then sighed slightly: “At least, we should be safe…”

“This is really amazing!”

Using his divine sense, Su Qin discovered all kinds of insights.

“However, the eunuch next to Empress Li could detect the existence of my Divine Sense…”

Su Qin was slightly puzzled.

When he spread his Divine Sense into the room, the eunuch named Hong clearly felt it.

Su Qin pondered for a while and thought of the possible reason.

The main reason, he suspected, was that he had just finished condensing his Divine Sense, and wasn’t in full control of it yet.

In addition, the spirit strength of Eunuch Hong surpasses the normal Martial Artist, hence he’s more sensitive to it.

After Su Qin fully familiarized himself with Divine Sense, he can finally truly be a Master.

Time flew by and in a blink of an eye, another couple of months passed.

During this time, Su Qin resumed his normal life as always.

As for condensing his Divine Sense, it has little impact on Su Qin.

After all, even if there was no Divine Concentration Pill, Su Qin was confident in condensing Divine Sense on his own, just that it would’ve taken a little longer.

Su Qin’s most important asset is time.

An ordinary Grade 1 Great Grandmaster can only live up to two hundred years of life, but Su Qin can live up to four hundred years.

With that much time, even a pig can condense Divine Sense, not to mention Su Qin.

“If I want to achieve Arhat Buddhahood, I must perfect my Divine Sense, Body, and Internal Strength.”

Su Qin sat cross-legged, thinking of his current situation.

“I’ve already condensed my Divine Sense and tempered my body to the extreme. That only leaves Internal Strength…”

Su Qin’s eyes flashed.

For any Grade 1 Great Grandmaster, touching the Legend Realm is as difficult as climbing out of a chasm, and yet Su Qin was easily solving the problems that one would encounter. If this matter was spread, it would definitely shock the world.

To some extent, Su Qin is definitely one of the people closest to reaching the Legend Realm among the Grade 1 Great Grandmasters today.

The next day.

Su Qin went to the Bodhi Court to Sign In as usual.

Since the last time he obtained a Divine Concentration Pill, Su Qin obviously increased his Sign Ins at the Bodhi Court.

Since he can obtain a Divine Concentration Pill that helped him condense his Divine Sense, then wouldn’t it be helpful if he obtained an Internal Strength medicinal pill?

But Su Qin suddenly stopped, and not long after, the Princess ran over.

Calculating the time since they’ve first arrived, the Empress’s group has been in the Shaolin Temple for more than half a year now.

However, in normal times, Empress Li and Eunuch Hong hardly leave the bamboo forest, so Shaolin Temple was not really affected by their stay.

Adding to the fact that Empress Li was protected by Emperor Tang’s handwritten edict, Abbot Hui Wen could only turn a blind eye to them. As long as Empress Li did not take the initiative to leave, he would let Li Fei continue to stay in the Temple.

The only thing the Shaolin Temple needed to do was to provide some food every day.

“Little Monk, we may be going back soon…”

The Princess had big red eyes and was obviously very reluctant to leave.

Although the Shaolin Temple is decorated per se, it was also far from the luxurious and spectacular Imperial Palace.

But at the Shaolin Temple, she was at least safe and free. She doesn’t have to worry about dying in a dry well one day, or swallowing a cup of poison.

“Going back?”

Su Qin was surprised.

“En, this is what Grandpa Hong said.” The Princess said in a low tone.
