Chapter 582: Chapter 582

Hearing Master Gu’s warning, Ji Jingqiu was somewhat dazed.

It had been a long time since he last heard that name.

Counting the time, it had been more than a year since he left the Federation, and he had not visited the Buddha Country to pay homage to the True Buddha during this period.

Look at the state his little tree has been starved into...

As if responding to his thoughts, inside the Inner World, the Bodhi sapling emitted a faint clear light, its branches and leaves swaying, causing Hel, who was still observing the "Liubai Mountain" outside the Pure Land, to frown deeply.

What madness has gotten into this tree now?

Ji Jingqiu couldn’t help but think of an unforgettable old friend.

He wondered how Bone Arhat had been this past year, whether the situation within the Supreme True Buddha Sect had improved at all, and if things were going smoothly...

Gu’s recent year had not been ideal.

At first, it went quite smoothly.

The former Dharma King’s lineage, with Zuo Qianqiu staying at home, suffered an inexplicable calamity from above, and was severely damaged by a peerless genius from a hundred years ago who stepped on him to rise to power. Had it not been for the protection of the True Buddha, he might have lost his life.

Every time he thought about this over the past year, Huang Fuxing felt a great regret.

If Zuo Qianqiu had died back then, all the troubles of this year wouldn’t have happened.

More than a year ago, with the retreat of Zuo Qianqiu, the New Law Sect became caught in internal strife over power and lost the qualifications to manage the overall situation. Their lineage began to take control of significant power.

But the good times did not last.

Zuo Qianqiu’s injuries, which were originally going to take several years to heal, recovered rapidly and he returned to his peak condition after coming into contact with a mysterious force. Furthermore, his Martial Arts had advanced even further.

A hundred years ago, this person was already known as the one closest to becoming a Grandmaster; today, with another step forward...

According to his teacher, it seemed he really wasn’t far off now.

Huang Fuxing sighed; although his mind was in turmoil, the speed at which his hands sorted the express delivery did not change, steady and fast.

Since the resurgence of the New Law Sect, the situation for their Ancient Method lineage had become even worse than before.

Even as a disciple of the head of their lineage, he was now assigned to work undercover in a subordinate courier company, enduring humiliation and acting as a package sorter.

Over this past year and more, Huang Fuxing had taken his suffering to heart and learned from his mistakes, feeling that all the misfortune had started from losing contact with Ji Jingqiu.

Soon after Ji Jingqiu faced the risk of being discovered by the Dharma King’s lineage, that lineage suffered a great calamity.

And ever since Ji Jingqiu disappeared, seemingly to another world, the Dharma King’s lineage was rekindled.

The facts proved that Jing Qiu was truly their Ancient Method Sect’s lucky star, the Future Buddha, the hope of the Supreme True Buddha Sect!

He must reestablish contact with Jing Qiu and restore the glory of the Supreme True Buddha Sect!

Under the flickering light, with the unpleasant smell of engine oil in the air, Huang Fuxing remained unchanged in expression, considering this as the True Buddha’s tempering.

His smart terminal suddenly received a communication request, a special attention one.

Huang Fuxing’s heart stirred, and his Qi Force materialized a hand to accept the call, without affecting the progress of his hands sorting packages.

"Hello? Teacher! How have things been on your side recently?"

Hearing his teacher’s voice, Huang Fuxing’s body shook, and his surging Qi Force surged subtly behind him. His eyes sparkled with the best news he had heard all year!

No... it can’t be considered good news just yet.

"You said, Buddha Country has sent information about Jing Qiu?! What’s the situation?"

Huang Fuxing’s heart trembled, not only excited to hear news of Jing Qiu but also filled with worry.

Why would the Buddha Country of the Nine States go out of its way to send a message about Jing Qiu?

Soon, Huang Fuxing’s expression changed dramatically, his hands stopped working, and the nearby machines issued lazy alarms, which he smashed with a punch!

His complexion turned ugly as he confirmed with the person on the phone: "You’re saying, Buddha Country is requesting our Supreme True Buddha Sect to cooperate, to capture Ji Jingqiu and send him to a specific location?"

After getting confirmation, Huang Fuxing took a deep breath, his voice agitated: "What exactly has Jing Qiu done wrong?"

On the other end of the terminal, the old man was silent for a long time, and with a weary sigh, he said:

"As far as I know, it’s because... he is too exceptional."

After meeting with Master Gu.

Ji Jingqiu was taken away along with Master Gu.

Because he was to leave some Heart Lamp Seeds in the Nine Palaces, he needed to wait another two days before returning to Aunt Mu’s.

Soon, Ji Jingqiu obtained the "Ancient Road Harvest" that Feng Wu had brought back for him from the Great Red Sky Palace.

After hearing of Ji Jingqiu’s return, Feng Wu quickly paid him a visit and informed him of the previous decision of the Sun and Moon Alliance.

Ji Jingqiu nodded: "I have no objections, you remind everyone on my behalf, when sharing the Heart Lamp, bear in mind that this is a charitable act, a virtuous deed, and there are wills in the darkness watching you all, you can profit from this, but you must never use it to harm others."

He said these words very seriously, setting a bottom line for everyone.

"Alright, Ancestor Master Uncle, I will pass on the message." Feng Wu said solemnly, and then jokingly added, "So from now on, I’m the Sun and Moon Alliance’s resident Alliance Hierarch of the Nine Palaces."

Ji Jingqiu was speechless.

Ji Jingqiu said, "Master Gu asked me to leave some Heart Lamp Seeds in the Nine Palaces, apart from the Great Red Sky Palace, do you have any recommendations? Only for the younger generation."

He added, "Preferably those of good character."

Feng Wu pondered for a moment, then replied, "I’ll go back and prepare a list for you right away. By the way, there’s a ancestor worship ceremony being held in the Nine Palaces in a few days, you’re going to participate, right?"

Ji Jingqiu looked puzzled; he hadn’t heard about this from either his brother or uncle.

Ancestor worship in the Nine Palaces...

Theoretically, it shouldn’t have anything to do with him, right?
