An Mengni noticed something was off with Chen Mo's expression and asked, "Does Mr. Chen know this monk?"
"More than just know him, we are old acquaintances." Chen Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, a chill overflowing in his gaze.
Their first meeting was during the Heavenly Element Martial Examination, when Huineng was still Shi Yun's follower, stirring trouble in the street and Chen Mo sent him flying with a single punch.
After the examination, the Empress personally eliminated Shi Yun to vent his anger, yet Monk Huineng disappeared without a trace.
The next news of him came on the day of the grand festival... In just a few months, this guy went from a Steward-level martial monk to the successor of Wuwan Temple, even possessing power comparable to top-tier First Grade!
This can't be explained with opportunity or talent alone, Huineng clearly harbors a big secret—
It all seems to be related to those Buddha Beads.
