Chapter 2098: Chapter 2099: You Have to Trust a Woman’s Intuition (Second Update)
Hui Tong was puzzled but instinctively followed everyone else towards the copper door.
At this moment, by the large pit sealed by Xue An, the Fire Phoenix Special Forces were guarding the area.
Not only that, but the monks from the Pure Land Buddhist Country were also keeping a round-the-clock watch.
For instance, Yue Sha was left behind, showing the strict vigilance in place.
Yue Sha sat cross-legged, eyes closed, chanting scriptures.
The little girl Ying Lou, feeling bored, leaned against his back and let out a long yawn.
"Hey, uncle, aren’t you bored chanting these scriptures all day?"
Yue Sha slightly closed his eyes and shook his head with a smile, "Not at all!"
"But I’m tired of hearing it, buzzing like a mosquito, making me want to sleep!"
"Then just sleep!" Yue Sha continued.
Ying Lou instantly sat up straight, eyes wide open, looking at Yue Sha with a strange expression.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Despite not turning around, Yue Sha could still feel the peculiarity in Ying Lou’s gaze.
"Hmph, I’m looking at a big bad wolf in human skin!" Ying Lou pouted and said angrily.
"Oh!" Yue Sha replied indifferently.
This time, Ying Lou couldn’t hold back anymore, she leaned over with a puzzled face at Yue Sha, "Aren’t you curious why I’m saying this?"
"Not really!"
"Hmph, you must already know! For a lovely girl like me, you want me to sleep here. What’s your intention? Planning to sneak a kiss while I’m asleep?" Ying Lou questioned aggressively.
This time, Yue Sha finally opened his eyes, yet they were filled with helpless amusement, "How did you come up with that? I was just genuinely concerned about you, no other intentions!"
"Hmph, who would believe that!"
"Believe it or not!" Yue Sha simply ignored Ying Lou and closed his eyes again.
Ying Lou was so angry she was fuming.
Just then, Xue An led everyone over.
Feeling Xue An’s presence, Yue Sha finally stood up with a smile.
"You’re back!"
Xue An smiled slightly, "Yeah! Back!"
Yue Sha looked behind Xue An, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Where’s sister-in-law and those two little ones?"
"Oh, they were held up by something and didn’t come back with me this time!"
Saying this, Xue An glanced at Ying Lou.
"Little Ying Lou, you seem to have grown taller!"
But facing such a kind remark, Ying Lou stepped back fearfully and hid behind Yue Sha, looking at Xue An with some confusion.
This reaction was unexpected for many, even Yue Sha appeared surprised, but still smiled and said, "She might be a bit shy!"
Xue An laughed heartily and said nothing more.
At this moment, Cheng Hao led the Fire Phoenix members closer and stood firm, shouting loudly.
"Instructor!"
The voice echoed to the skies; Xue An’s eyes had a subtle change, but he nodded and spoke.
"Hmm! You’ve all worked hard. Has there been any change in the seal?"
"Report, Instructor, since you left, we have been guarding here, and there have been no changes in the seal!" Cheng Hao reported.
Xue An didn’t say anything but casually walked to the edge of the large pit, observing with bright eyes.
Everyone remained silent, holding their breath with concentration.
At this moment, Xiao Monk Hui Tong sneaked up to Ying Lou and beckoned her closer.
Little Ying Lou moved closer, "What?"
Hui Tong whispered, "Ying Lou, did you also feel something earlier?"
"You mean...?"
Hui Tong discreetly pointed towards Xue An in the distance.
Ying Lou’s face instantly became serious, and she nodded solemnly, whispering, "Yes, did you feel it too?"
"Yeah, from the first sight of the Hierarch, I felt something strange, but couldn’t pinpoint what it was." Hui Tong said with a frown.
"The eyes!" Ying Lou immediately said, then added, "It’s his eyes!"
Hui Tong thought for a moment, then slapped his thigh, "Yes, the eyes! His eyes are completely different from before, like he’s a different person."
But then, his spirits sank, "But senior brothers and the master didn’t sense anything. Could we be mistaken?"
"No, my intuition is never wrong!"
"Why?" Hui Tong asked in astonishment.
"Because you must trust a woman’s intuition!" Ying Lou said with confidence.
Hui Tong: "..."
"So what do we do now?"
Ying Lou pondered for a moment, then her eyes lit up, and she said, "Don’t say anything, just watch what I do!"
With that, Ying Lou changed her expression and ran out of the crowd, approaching Xue An.
"Hierarch, when will Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian come back?" Ying Lou asked in a sweet voice.
Hui Tong, watching from behind, was breaking into a cold sweat.
But no one else suspected anything, as Ying Lou was known for being carefree and often speaking without a filter.
This Xue An looked down at Ying Lou for a moment, making her feel like her whole body was tense.
Because she caught a glimpse of the cold, indifferent expression in this "Xue An’s" eyes.
It was a coldness not of this world, devoid of any emotional color, enough to make one’s scalp tingle.
But in the next second, Xue An returned to normal, gently patting Ying Lou on the head with a smile.
"Didn’t I just say that An Yan and they can’t come back for now due to some matters!"
"What kind of matters?" Despite feeling chills when being patted on the head, this little girl showed incredible courage at this moment and continued to ask.
Xue An frowned slightly.
At the same time, Yue Sha stepped forward and softly said, "Ying Lou, stop this mischief and step back!"
"No, I just want to know when Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian are coming back!"
As she spoke, Ying Lou looked up innocently at Xue An.
"Hierarch, could it be you don’t know either!"
Xue An’s face grew colder, but he didn’t respond to Ying Lou’s words and instead turned around, speaking calmly.
"It seems this seal shows signs of loosening; we must enter and check it out!"
With that, Xue An ordered sternly, "Cheng Hao!"
"Present!"
"You are to open this seal!"
"Yes!"
Cheng Hao had no doubts and immediately led his men to prepare to act.
But right then, Little Ying Lou suddenly shouted, "No, you can’t open this seal!"
