Chapter 139 Shaolin (1)
The next morning.
“Then I shall be going now.”
Gu Yang Jie respectfully clasped his hands together before Bai Dan Xian.
Seeing this, Qing Huo Yuan, the head of the Plum Blossom Clinic, stroked his chin.
“Don’t get hurt this time. Take care of yourself.”
Song Mu and Guo Yunpei also offered similar words of caution.
To someone unaware of their positions, it might have seemed like a heartwarming scene.
But this was highly unusual.
‘The Sect Leader and the three Elders coming out to see me off…’
How worried must they have been to drop everything and come?
Gu Yangjie sensed familial affection from them, yet also felt a tinge of disappointment, wondering if they lacked confidence in him.
After all, this was no ordinary matter.
Unlike before, this was an official invitation from the grand master of Shaolin Temple.
They had entrusted Gu Yangjie with this task, though they should have accompanied him themselves, due to various circumstances.
How could they not feel uneasy?
Gu Yangji noticed the worry in Bai Danxian’s eyes and offered a cheerful smile.
“This time, it should be fine if I cause a bit of trouble at Shaolin, right?”
At those words, Bai Danxian let out a hearty laugh.
“Are you planning to work me to death? Don’t even joke about such things.”
As he spoke, Bai Danxian’s gaze shifted to Song Mu beside him.
“Elder Song, what do you think about Jie causing trouble?”
“If he causes trouble, I’ll give him a good scolding, heh heh.”
Song Mu’s meaningful smile made Gu Yangjie’s head feel cold.
