Chapter 623: Going Up Mount Saint

The next morning, sunlight shone in through the window and landed on the bed.

w.a.n.g Teng sat cross-legged on his soft mattress. The blanket hadnt been touched.

He slowly opened his eyes. A colorful glimmer flashed in his eyes and disappeared in an instant. It looked divine.

He got up from bed, leaving only a light dent on the blanket.

This was a display of the powerful control of his body strength.

w.a.n.g Teng cultivated everywhere. He practiced his strength and control every day in his every action, hoping to release the potential of his power to its limit.

His enlightenment and physique were at an extremely high level, so he was able to go into more details in his cultivation.

He took off his clothes, revealing his well-proportioned and almost perfect body. His muscles were tight and firm. The outlines were defined like a sculpture.

He took a few minutes to wash up. Then, he dressed himself and dried his hair. He walked out of his room and went down for breakfast.

Zhu Yushao and the others were already here. They were sitting in a corner of the restaurant and having breakfast. They chatted occasionally.

They immediately noticed w.a.n.g Teng when he entered.

Here. Zhu Yushao waved at him.

w.a.n.g Teng smiled and nodded at them. He went to get his breakfast first.

The breakfast was buffet-style. All kinds of cuisines were provided. You could choose whatever dish you fancied.

As a Force chef master, he could smell what was delicious and what wasnt.

After picking his food, w.a.n.g Teng carried his plate and walked towards the table where his companions were at.

Zhu Yushao pulled an empty chair. w.a.n.g Teng sat down and smiled. Youre so early.

Were going back soon. I lost in the compet.i.tion and have no face to go back. How can I sleep well? Zhu Yushao sighed. She chewed on her bread as she replied.

w.a.n.g Teng didnt know what to say.

Zhu Yushao glanced at him and continued, You must have slept well. After all, you won the compet.i.tion hands down.

Alright, alright. Look how jealous you are. w.a.n.g Teng rolled his eyes as he ate his breakfast.

At this moment, Dan Taixuan walked over. You are all up!

I just came, w.a.n.g Teng said.

Hmph, you still have the guts to appear. Dan Taixuan sneered as she looked at him from the corner of her eyes.

This lady bears grudges!

w.a.n.g Teng laughed awkwardly and changed the topic. Pointing at the cake in his hand, he said, This almond cake is not bad. Sister Xuan, do you want to try it? I especially took a piece for you.

Dan Taixuan was speechless. She glared at w.a.n.g Teng and s.n.a.t.c.hed the other piece of almond cake on his plate, taking a bite of it.

w.a.n.g Teng could finally heave a sigh of relief

After they finished their breakfast, Parick suddenly came. He said, Everyone, you might have to put your schedule on hold.

Whats the matter? Dan Taixuan frowned.

Someone wants to see Mister w.a.n.g Teng, Parick looked at w.a.n.g Teng and said.

See me? w.a.n.g Teng pointed at himself in surprise.

Yes. Can you come with me? Parick asked politely.

w.a.n.g Teng exchanged glances with Dan Taixuan. Then, he asked, You need to tell me who wants to see me. I dont have time to waste.

Parick hesitated for some time. He didnt reply to him, but he pointed in the direction of the peak of Mount Saint.

w.a.n.g Teng was astounded.

Parick was hinting to him that someone on the peak wanted to see him. Since he wasnt willing to say who it was, the persons ident.i.ty must be extremely special.

w.a.n.g Teng had an idea of who it was.

Dan Taixuan and the others were shocked too. It was difficult to see the important figures of Mount Saint, but they wanted to meet w.a.n.g Teng.

Did they say why? Dan Taixuan asked.

How would I know? Parick gave a bitter smile.

Dan Taixuan was hesitant. Who knew what those people wanted? She felt worried about letting w.a.n.g Teng go alone.

Noticing her apprehension, Parick said, Miss Dan, dont worry. Mount Saint will definitely ensure w.a.n.g Tengs safety. We are inviting him up the mountain because someone wants to chat with him.

Dan Taixuan opened her mouth.

Words were empty. Anyone could say it. It didnt guarantee anything.

However, w.a.n.g Teng said, Its alright, Ill go with him. I wonder which important figure wants to see me.

Mount Saint is filled with formidable warriors. Dont act on impulse. Dan Taixuan frowned. She spoke to him using voice transmission.

Dont worry. This is Mount Saint. If anything happens to me, their reputation will be destroyed. Also, theyre not some evil clan. They wont attack me for no reason. w.a.n.g Teng added using voice transmission. Also, dont you want to know what they have up their sleeves?

In that case, be careful. Mount Saint is mysterious. Dont create troubles. Dan Taixuan agreed with him, so she let him go. However, she was still worried.

She knew that w.a.n.g Teng wasnt an obedient boy.

w.a.n.g Teng felt exasperated. It seemed impossible to change his image in Dan Taixuans mind.

Lets go. He walked out of the hotel.

After they walked away, Mu Zhiguo finally whispered, Will it really be alright?

It shouldnt be a problem. Dan Taixuan shook her head and asked everyone to go back to their rooms to wait for him.

w.a.n.g Teng followed Parick up the mountain. They walked past the coliseum and arrived at the last section of the stone staircase heading to the peak.

Someone was already waiting there.

Youre here, the person said.

High priest! w.a.n.g Teng was surprised. Are you the one looking for me?

No, I came to bring you up the mountain. The high priest shook his head. There was confusion in his eyes too. He didnt understand why that person wanted to meet w.a.n.g Teng.

w.a.n.g Teng had showcased outstanding abilities in this exchange and was way ahead of the other talented martial warriors. However, the difference in status between him and that person was vast.

w.a.n.g Teng glanced up uncontrollably when he heard this. He saw the 12 palaces situated on the path that was winding up the mountain, all the way until it reached the Holy Temple at the peak

I heard that if a normal person wants to go up the mountain, they need to challenge the 12 zodiac palaces. Do I have to do that? w.a.n.g Teng asked.

If he needed to, he would turn around and leave.

He was interested to fight with the 12 holy knights and get some attribute bubbles from them, but that didnt mean that he was willing to be led by the nose by someone.

Even if that someone was from Mount Saint.

You dont need to. The high priest shook his head. He raised his feet and walked up, his voice floating over from the front. Follow me.

w.a.n.g Teng hesitated and glanced at Parick.

Ill be stopping here. You can go ahead, Parick said.

w.a.n.g Teng nodded and caught up with the high priest slowly.

They climbed the stairs in silence.

Huh?! As they walked, w.a.n.g Teng let out a surprised gasp. He felt a little stunned.

The first zodiac palace seemed very near. Yet they hadnt reached it even though they had been walking for some time.

Theres something strange about this path!

He thought to himself silently. This got him a little interested..
