Knife Back in The Scabbard Chapter 102

Two days later, Finn Ye and his party finally arrived at Wenchan Mountain.

The fake monk had been secretly sent back to the Taishang Palace by Duanheng's disciples. In front of outsiders, he just said that the two men were suffering from acclimatization and should stay for a while to rest, and urged them to hurry up and not miss the meeting schedule.

Hengyuan did not comment on this, and even Hengming, who was a bit more rebellious, did not interfere in the internal affairs of the Supreme Palace. After the group set off, Duanheng talked to the two of them about the arrangements for the martial arts conference in a casual manner, occasionally asking a few questions about the recent situation of Abbot Sejian and Zen Master Sekong to show his concern, which made Finn Ye behind him feel that this old man had some talent as an intelligence spy.

Whether they were acting or being sincere, both of them answered Duan Heng's questions flawlessly, especially the seemingly gentle Hengyuan, who always managed to inadvertently bring up important topics. After a conversation, even with Finn Ye's good hearing, he couldn't catch any obvious flaws.

He hurried along the way, occasionally glancing at Hengyuan, then looking away before the young monk turned his head to look at the grass, trees, soil and rocks on the roadside.
