Chapter 142 Shaolin (4)
Only after completely erasing the child’s demonic energy did Gu Yangji exhale a sigh of relief.
Yet his mind was filled with countless thoughts.
‘Could it be that Master Museong was Palma’s puppet?’
Considering the strength he possessed, calling him Palma wouldn’t be an exaggeration, but Gu Yangji frowned.
It made no sense for the former Guardian Monk of Shaolin Temple to be Palma.
To become a Guardian Monk, one must pass over twenty-eight trials, and their origins are thoroughly investigated.
There was no way Palma, who had existed for hundreds of years, could have any personal records.
Having reached this conclusion, Gu Yang-jeok shook his head.
Of course, his doubts weren’t completely gone.
‘I should have Cheolpunggae look into it.’
Above all other information, this must come first, as quickly as possible.
Gu Yangjeok hoisted the unconscious novice monk onto his back and immediately whistled.
Wheee-!
In response to the sound, a falcon hidden deep within the forest revealed its beak.
It was the Thousand-Mile Falcon, cherished so dearly by the Sect that they would even give up their own meals for it.
Compared to other birds of prey, its intelligence was said to be exceptionally high, bordering on that of a spirit creature.
True to its reputation, the Thousand-Mile Falcon did not fly over immediately. Instead, it watched Gu Yangjie from a high tree.
Seeing this, Gu Yangjie pulled a token from his inner robe.
“……Pii!”
The Earth Tablet, an item only the third-level disciples of the Sect could possess.
