Chapter 958: Chapter 950: Red Dust Supreme
Faced with the questioning of the man in the white robe, the cloth-clad youth had no mind to answer, his heart sinking to the bottom.
Seeing their companion's expression, the other four stepped forward one after another, pushing the man in the white robe, who consequently loosened his grip and retreated three steps.
He smiled at the cloth-clad youth, very interested in the thoughts of this lad.
Before coming to this continent, he had heard the legends about it.
This continent was called Pure Land, sheltered by powerful beings, without the notion of talent, no hierarchy of strength, a sanctuary for the weak.
In a world where the strong of Central Heaven are revered, having such a place intrigued the man in the white robe.
He had come from the Three Thousand Great Worlds and was curious about places that were entirely different from the mundane, and he revealed the cloth-clad youth's disguise with no malice; he was genuinely curious.
The man in the white robe noticed that the cloth-clad youth remained lost and depressed, which left him puzzled in his curiosity.
Could it be that this lad was forced to hide his cultivation level?
If so, the so-called Pure Land might be hiding some conspiracy, which fit his understanding of the mundane world.
The more perfect a place is, the more likely it is an illusion or a ruse.
The man in the white robe asked, “Is there anything you need help with? There are no restrictions on you. What are you fearing?”
The other four also sensed that something was wrong, they looked at the cloth-clad youth nervously, constantly expressing concern.
The cloth-clad youth took a deep breath, and his eyes regained calmness.
“Consider yourself skilled!”
The cloth-clad youth stared coldly at the man in the white robe, then turned and left.
The man in the white robe was stunned, not expecting such a reaction. The four mortal youths were also stunned; they hurriedly called after the cloth-clad youth, but nothing could make the cloth-clad youth stop his steps.
The cloth-clad youth walked out of the town, not flying, but wandering aimlessly in the woods.
He needed to think carefully about how he would survive after leaving.
He was born on the Nine Spirit Continent and was taken under the wing of the Wushi Sect at the age of ten. When the Ancestor was to lead Wushi away, he severed the cause and effect and resolutely followed the Ancestor to Central Heaven.
He never thought he would leave, especially since he had been disguising for so many years without a flaw, today's revelation came too suddenly.
He needed to calm down.
The more he thought, the more wronged he felt.
He didn't genuinely feel he had made any mistakes.
That person came too suddenly, without any interaction, yet his disguise was revealed at the first sentence, which indicated that there was a vast difference in their cultivation levels.
In such a situation, other disciples would likely be exposed too, his mistake was staying in such a remote place.
The more the cloth-clad youth thought, the worse he felt, he even couldn't help but kick a pebble on the ground, which shot out like a cannonball, piercing through one tree after another.
“What exactly are you troubled about?”
The voice of the man in the white robe came from behind, causing the cloth-clad youth to stop, he turned to see the man in the white robe approaching, his gaze was complicated yet no longer angry or apprehensive.
Even though the other's cultivation level far surpassed his own, he did not believe the other could threaten the Wushishi Continent.
“Why have you come?” the cloth-clad youth asked expressionlessly.
The man in the white robe laughed, “I merely heard the legends of this place, got a little curious and wanted to see whether this really is the Human World's Pure Land.”
“What if it is, what if it isn't?” the cloth-clad youth asked mockingly.
He had seen dozens of self-proclaimed extraordinary masters before, they didn't require the Ancestor to act; the second-generation Ancestors easily subdued them.
In his view, the curiosity of the man in the white robe stemmed from arrogance, and such arrogance would bring about cataclysm.
The cloth-clad youth paused, then continued, “Here's a word of advice, unless you truly plan to stay, it's best to leave early and avoid regrets.”
The man in the white robe asked with a half-smile, “You're so uneasy and yet still concerned about me, which leads me to help you indeed.”
As he spoke, his gaze focused, following it, there appeared a figure walking through the woods behind the cloth-clad youth.
That person's aura was almost nonexistent; if they hadn't entered his sight, he wouldn't have sensed their presence at all.
Not simple!
The man in the white robe immediately became alert.
The cloth-clad youth saw the change in his gaze and immediately turned to look, then became excited and bowed in respect.
It was none other than Gu An.
Gu An wore a blue robe, his features handsome and his attire simple, not luxurious. A gentle breeze ruffled his robe, and there was an indescribable Dao charm around him, drawing even the man in the white robe, who couldn't look away.
Gu An walked up to the cloth-clad youth and smiled, “This time doesn't count as your failure, you need not worry.”
Hearing this, the cloth-clad youth looked up joyfully, then knelt down and thanked Gu An.
“Thank you, Ancestor!”
The cloth-clad youth's address to Gu An left the man in the white robe even more confused.
So they were from the same sect, yet why was this lad so afraid before?
Gu An looked at the man in the white robe and smiled, “Red Dust Supreme, you roam the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, thinking you can play among the mortals, but unfortunately, you've intruded upon my Dojo today, so I cannot let you leave.”
Upon hearing this, the white-robed man, called the Red Dust Supreme, shivered with horror, he watched Gu An warily and asked, “Who exactly are you?”
Recognizing his identity meant the person must surpass a Dao Extreme Daluo Immortal, and as his current cultivation wasn't near his peak, running into such an existence in this place filled him with unease.
The cloth-clad youth also looked up and turned to the Red Dust Supreme, filled with curiosity.
Supreme?
Who exactly was this guy, to warrant the Ancestor's personal intervention?
The mood of the cloth-clad youth mirrored the previous Red Dust Supreme, filled with curiosity and amusement.
Gu An took a step forward, moving towards the Red Dust Supreme, saying, “My identity is not important; what's important is that you've come to the wrong place. Weren't you training in the Red Dust? Then stay here, you will come to know the truth behind your curiosity.”
The Red Dust Supreme frowned, promptly vanishing from the spot, watching this, the cloth-clad youth hurriedly stood up.
The cloth-clad youth released his Divine Sense but couldn't find the Red Dust Supreme anymore.
He couldn't help but look at Gu An, cautiously asking, “Ancestor, aren't you going to chase him?”
Gu An halted, half-turning to look at him, humorously asking, “Why chase?”
“Weren't you going to make him stay, did you intentionally frighten him?” the cloth-clad youth scratched his head, awkwardly asking, still thinking maybe he hadn't seen the Ancestor's real intentions clearly before.
Gu An raised his right hand, gently grasping the sky, then stretched it out towards the cloth-clad youth, revealing a tiny figure within his palm.
It was none other than the Red Dust Supreme!
The cloth-clad youth's eyes widened, he dashed to Gu An's side, inspecting Gu An's palm carefully.
The Red Dust Supreme was suppressed in Gu An's palm, continually changing movements, clearly trying to escape, but it was simply impossible, he could no longer maintain his previous calm and mocking demeanor.
