Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 908: Chapter 622 Little Neighbor Chapter 908: Chapter 622 Little Neighbor Without waiting for Gu Changhuai to react, Mo Hua “turned the tables” and probed,

“Uncle Gu, can you issue a task from the Taoist Court?”

Gu Changhuai was startled and felt displeased in his heart.

This brat, why is he acting so “familiar”, as if I’m well-acquainted with him…

Gu Changhuai looked at Mo Hua with a wary expression,

“What do you want to do?”

“I’m just asking,” Mo Hua said casually, then flashed a look like a cunning little fox, “Suppose…”

Mo Hua emphasized, “I mean suppose, I inadvertently, came across a clue about a Sin Cultivator, could you issue a task through the Taoist Court?”

Gu Changhuai frowned and refused,

“The Taoist Court acts according to its own statutes, and the rewards offered to Sects are also subject to the Canon’s careful deliberation, it’s not something that can be issued at will…”

Mo Hua nodded, instantly understood.

Prudence, deliberation, not at will…

The implication was that it still depended on one’s will.

Whether it’s prudent or not, whether you deliberate or not, whether it’s arbitrary or not, it all depends on the subjective judgment of the Supervisor, with no objective rules.

As a Supervisor, if Uncle Gu decided, he indeed had the qualification to issue a reward!

Gu Changhuai looked at the spirited and unusual Mo Hua, and for a moment didn’t know what Mo Hua had figured out, he furrowed his brow and asked,

“What do you want by asking this…”

He was only halfway through his question when he realized something.

No, that’s not right, the question he asked this kid, he hasn’t answered yet…

He came here to investigate Mo Hua’s connection to Boss Jiang’s death.

But he got careless, and Mo Hua led the conversation astray…

Gu Changhuai put on a stern face, “I asked first, you answer first.”

“What did you ask again?” Mo Hua blinked.

Gu Changhuai felt a bit of a headache, so he repeated his question, “Do you know the Fireball Technique?”

Mo Hua did not hide anything and nodded,

“The Fireball Technique is such a Spell…

it would be quite hard not to know…”

The Fireball Technique was one of the most basic Spells for Cultivators, and also one of the most widely used.

Mo Hua looked frank.

Gu Changhuai glanced at Mo Hua, and even with his experience as the Dao Court’s Supervisor, he couldn’t see a hint of nervousness on Mo Hua’s slightly childish face.

He made his judgment in an instant.

This was a little “slick operator,” impervious to oil and salt, uninterrogatable.

Gu Changhuai thought for a while, his eyes slightly heavy, and simply asked directly,

“The human traffickers who kidnapped Yu Er, did you kill them?”

Having said this, Gu Changhuai looked straight at Mo Hua with a piercing gaze.

Mo Hua actually wanted to prevaricate, but he felt that he might need to ask Uncle Gu, the Supervisor of the Taoist Court, for many favors in the future, so there should be some basic trust between the two, and lying wouldn’t be good…

Mo Hua nodded, “Yes!”

Mo Hua admitted it very straightforwardly.

Yet, Gu Changhuai was taken aback.

His mind experienced a momentary deadlock.

He had envisioned many scenarios, but he didn’t expect that as soon as he asked, Mo Hua would admit it directly, leaving him with no words to say.

Gu Changhuai hesitated for a long time before asking, “How did you do it?”

Mo Hua responded, “I used the Fireball Technique to slaughter all those human traffickers!”

Gu Changhai thought as much.

This was in line with what he had surmised.

But he hesitated again for a moment, thought over those words in his heart for a long time, and couldn’t help but shake his head and say, “Impossible…”

With the Fireball Technique…

how could he kill?

Mo Hua, this youngster, was in the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Those dozen or so human traffickers were at least at the Foundation level too, and with many years of cultivation experience and deeper Cultivation than Mo Hua.

With the Fireball Technique…

Gu Changhuai simply couldn’t figure out how one could use the low-level Fireball Technique to kill a dozen or so Cultivators of the same rank.

Even killing one would be cumbersome…

Mo Hua looked helpless,

“If I stay silent, you suspect me, if I tell the truth, you don’t believe me, Uncle Gu, this makes things difficult for me…”

Gu Changhuai was stopped, feeling slightly guilty, but he still insisted,

“It definitely wasn’t just the Fireball Technique.”

Mo Hua thought for a moment, then said, “What if…

I had previously set up a Formation that blasted them into serious injuries, and then used the Fireball Technique to finish them off, taking their lives, would that be plausible?”

Gu Changhuai followed Mo Hua’s train of thought and couldn’t help but agree,

“That does seem more reasonable…”

“So, it’s settled?”

Gu Changhuai couldn’t help but nod, and while doing so, was startled again, he said irritably,

“What do you mean ‘so, it’s settled’?

You’re just over ten years old in the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment, where could you have set up such a powerful Killing Formation?”

Mo Hua spoke the truth again, “My Formation mastery is very formidable!”

Gu Changhuai clearly didn’t believe it.

Ɲονɢօ.сο

“I entered Taixu Gate, my specialty is Formation!” Mo Hua added.

Gu Changhuai didn’t know what to say.

How could he not know that Mo Hua was Wenren’s cousin, and it took quite a sum of Spirit Stones and many connections to get him into Taixu Gate?

To say his specialty was Formation was just for the sake of appearances, a mere pretext.

A kid with a Low-Grade Five Elements Spiritual Root from a remote Little Immortal City in Li State, what kind of Formation mastery could he have?

To be able to set up a Killing Formation and trap over a dozen human traffickers.

Bluffing should at least be drafted.

Gu Changhuai snorted lightly.

Mo Hua sighed, feeling very helpless.

Every time he tried to be honest, alas people would not believe him; there was nothing he could do.

“My Formation mastery is really quite formidable!”

Mo Hua emphasized yet again.
