Chapter 224 Forget the Heart, How About We Make a Bet?

Several burly men sat by the fire, staring intently at Xiao Mo and his companions.

But Xiao Mo remained with his eyes closed, resting his spirit-gathering knife on his lap, as if he were asleep, completely ignoring their gaze.

Wang Xin kept tugging at Xiao Mo's clothes. She didn't seem afraid of these burly men who looked like bandits, but rather worried that Xiao Mo might be in a bad mood and kill them with a single stroke.

The scarred man glanced at the Han family's wife and daughter, then licked his lips, his eyes burning with desire.

However, he would glance at Xiao Mo from time to time, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes.

After all, Xiao Mo had a knife on his thigh, and this scarred man didn't know Xiao Mo's strength. What if Xiao Mo came from some martial arts sect and liked to fight for justice? That would be troublesome.

But the scarred man was extremely reluctant to give up on the mother and daughter.

This mother and daughter are truly lovely. The older one still retains her charm and is as mature as a peach, while the younger one is clear and beautiful, like an unopened lotus bud.

On this boring night, if only...
"Hehehe," the scarred man thought, feeling a strange excitement.

As for the female monk...
Although the female monk was otherworldly in appearance, it was the first time the scarred man had ever seen such a beautiful woman.

However, monks are beings that one generally cannot afford to offend, nor does one want to offend.

Not to mention that the other party was a female monk, which was really too strange.

Years of experience in the martial world told the scarred man that if he did anything to her, he would likely be "subdued by demons" in a few days.

"Hey, Zhang San, don't we have some kind of spirit-testing stone? Do you have it with you?" the scarred man muttered to his henchman.

"Yes, yes." Zhang San knew what his boss was going to do, so he quickly took out the spirit-testing stone from his pocket.

Any cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage will have their spirit-testing stone become hot when you are within one meter of them.

Unless they are legendary Golden Core Realm immortals, this spirit-testing stone cannot sense them.

But how could those legendary immortals possibly come to such a dilapidated temple to take shelter from the rain? They would have already taken a step several miles away.

The scarred man took the spirit-testing stone, picked up a pot of wine, and walked towards Xiao Mo.

In the scarred man's view, if the other party had reached the Foundation Establishment stage, then he would let it go.

But if the opponent hasn't reached the Foundation Establishment stage, then my cultivation at the ninth level of the Qi Refining stage really isn't anything to be afraid of!

"Brother, judging from your stance, you seem to practice swordsmanship. May I ask which school or sect you belong to?" The scarred man walked up with a wine gourd and asked with a smile.

“No sect or faction.” Xiao Mo spoke slowly, his voice extremely cold.

"Hahaha, I am also from no sect or school. I was lucky back then and found a sword technique book. In the end, I practiced it to the ninth level of Qi Refining."

As the scarred man spoke, he kept an eye on the reaction of the spirit-testing stone in his pocket.

Throughout the entire process, the spirit stone did not get hot.

Once the scarred man was certain that the other party was not in the Foundation Establishment stage, he felt relieved.

"Hey bro, I love making friends, and you're so charismatic, I like you even more. Want to grab a drink?"

The scarred man smiled, his tone becoming more relaxed.

"I'm not drinking anymore." Xiao Mo didn't open his eyes the whole time, which seemed very disrespectful.

"Alright, then you should get some rest, brother."

The scarred man didn't insist. He took a sip of his drink and then sat back down next to his brother.

Zhang San leaned closer to his elder brother and asked excitedly in a low voice, "Brother, what do you mean? Can we do it?"

He had been lusting after that mother and daughter for a long time, especially the female monk!
He had never seen such a beautiful woman!

"It's not a big problem. He's not at the Foundation Establishment stage, so there's no need to worry."

The scarred man chuckled and licked his lips. "Even though we encountered a downpour, I never expected to have a fleeting romance in this temple!"

"Boss, can I go second for that female monk?" Zhang San swallowed hard.

"What did you say?"

The scarred man hissed and slapped Zhang San hard on the head.

"According to the rules of the martial arts world, monks must never be touched. Those old bald monks are very protective of their own. I, your boss, don't want to die. Besides, this is the first time I've ever seen a female monk. Do you think ordinary temples have female monks?"

"I know, brother!"

Zhang San nodded, a hint of regret in his expression.

But if you can't touch them, then you can't touch them. That mother and daughter pair are quite nice too.

After receiving permission from their elder brother, the others looked at the Han mother and daughter with even more unbridled arrogance.

Han Zi and his family naturally sensed their hostile gazes, but fortunately, they had four or five guards with them, so they felt that the guards would not dare to do anything reckless.

Time passed by, and the only sound in the temple was the crackling of the bonfire.

"Wangxin, how about we make a bet?" Xiao Mo transmitted his voice to Wangxin Lake.

Wang Xin turned her head to look at Xiao Mo, and replied with her heart: "A bet? What are we betting on?"

"If these bandits are going to target the Han family, let's see who can make them repent and turn to good. You use your method, and I'll use mine."

Xiao Mo closed his eyes and transmitted his voice.

"If you win, I will promise you that from now on I will do good and study the scriptures with you. I will even refrain from killing if you forbid me from doing so."

If you lose, you have to promise me one thing.

"What is it?" Wangxin asked.

Xiao Mo: "I haven't decided yet. I'll think about it later."

Wang Xin lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, I promise you, but you can't send me away."

"Row."

After Xiao Moxin finished speaking, he said no more.

Time passed by second by second, and before we knew it, it was midnight.

"cough cough"

The scarred man coughed a few times and shouted to the Han family.

"Sir, it's late at night and all is quiet. It must be so boring. Besides, autumn rainy nights are especially chilly. Why don't you invite your sister-in-law and your daughter over for a few drinks to warm them up?"

"You're too kind, brother, but that won't do," Han Zi said with a smile. "We're warming ourselves by the fire here, so it's not that cold."

"My elder brother sent you here to save face, why are you talking so much nonsense?" Zhang San stood up angrily, showing no respect to the Han family.

"How to speak?"

The scarred man frowned and scolded his underlings.

“But sir, my second brother’s words may be rough, but they make sense. When you’re traveling, you should get along well with everyone so you can take care of each other. Alright, since you’re not coming, we’ll head over there.”

With that, the scarred man and his companions stood up with smiles and led a few of their brothers toward the Han family.

Seeing this, Wang Xin tightly gripped the hem of her clothes.
