Upon hearing Lin Xiao’s words, Big Head Yang subconsciously rubbed his eyes. Then, he nodded stiffly and said with a dumbfounded expression, “Fuck!
Just now… I think I saw it too…”
When Big Head Yang followed Lin Xiao’s line of sight, he realized that Su Yun’s wooden saber had actually stood up out of thin air. It floated in midair for a full two seconds before plummeting. Although it was only a short two seconds, this scene was enough to shock the two of them. They found it unbelievable, but at the same time, they could not understand it.
How did he do that? Were they seeing things? Lin Xiao quickly walked not far away, nudged the plainclothes officer beside him, and asked, “Dude, did you see that wooden saber stand up on its own?”
The plain-clothed police officer nodded with a confused expression. “l did. What’s going on?”
Xu Jiajia and the others also came over. They looked at each other in shock. Clearly, they had all noticed that scene just now.
“The wind on the river is strong, and the wooden saber itself is not heavy, so it was blown up temporarily?”
“Then why is it standing up?”
“Maybe it’s the wind speed and the airflow.”
“Although it’s scientifically reasonable, it feels a little far-fetched. But there doesn’t seem to be any other explanation.”
Regarding this speculation, the doubts in everyone’s hearts were not dispelled.
They had seen the wooden saber hovering just now. Although there was no lack of such phenomena in nature, such as the backwind that could cause such a situation, this was too much of a coincidence.
Involuntarily, another word appeared in everyone’s hearts—cultivation.
Everyone’s thoughts started to run wild, but they also felt that it was ridiculous. Their emotions were a little complicated. They didn’t understand, but they felt that it was impressive.
Big Head Yang had already subconsciously walked closer to Su Yun. He wanted to take a closer look, but at this moment, he really made a new discovery. “Hey, look. Is there a pattern drawn on the ground in front of Su Yun?”
Xu Jiajia and the rest quickly walked forward and looked up. As expected, they were surprised to discover that a pattern had appeared on the ground in front of Su Yun.
“When did he draw it?”
“That’s not right. I didn’t see Su Yun move either. I’ve been watching. Why did a pattern appear out of thin air?”
“And this pattern seems a little familiar.”
This pattern seemed to have been carved into the cement ground. It was very shallow, with only a little trace, and it could barely be seen. It was actually a pattern where dots were connected like a swimming dragon.
However, no one noticed when Su Yun had drawn it. He had not moved since he sat cross-legged and did not have the time to draw it.
“I remember now! Is this pattern identical to the one Su Yun drew on the ancient book in the Hibiscus University library?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao’s words immediately surprised everyone present. After taking a closer look, they realized that it was indeed the case. They were really identical. From this, it could be determined that this pattern was indeed not randomly drawn. Instead, there was something profound about it. Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to be exactly the same twice.
However, the only thing that puzzled everyone was when this pattern was drawn. And what mystery did this pattern contain? What was its use? It actually made Su Yun so obsessed!
What they did not know was that Su Yun was already immersed in the sounds of waves, introspecting himself and comprehending the Dao.
After so many days of traveling, his state of supernatural demonization had begun to waver. The constant killing in his own world was also gradually changing with the ebb and flow of the Qiantang River.
The self-reliance of the wooden saber and the symbols engraved on the ground were all caused by the powerful saber aura released by Su Yun in his half-asleep state.
The saber aura was strengthened under the state of supernatural demonization. It was involuntarily controlled by Su Yun, causing the wooden saber to levitate. It also silently used the saber aura to carve special symbols.
Invisible to the naked eye, the saber aura continued to strengthen, enveloping Su Yun as it gradually spread towards the Qiantang River. But for the time being, no one noticed.
Ring, ring, ring.
Coincidentally, a ringtone interrupted everyone’s complicated and confused thoughts. It was Lin Xiao’s phone in his pocket that suddenly rang. Lin Xiao took out his phone in confusion and took a look. Then, he was so frightened that his soul almost left his body. “Oh no, it’s my father!”
Big Head Yang looked at Lin Xiao in confusion and asked, “Isn’t it just a call from your father? Is there a need to be so afraid?”
Lin Xiao sighed deeply. His mind was filled with Lin Guodongs dignified appearance. Ever since he was young, he had lived under Lin Guodongs rod and taught him the concept of filial piety. Moreover, Lin Guodong was a martial arts expert. One could imagine that the physical pain that Lin Xiao had to endure since he was young was more than a few times that of ordinary people.
Plus, he was feeling guilty at the moment. After all, he had sneaked out of the martial arts school silently. It was difficult to confirm that this call was not to condemn him. It was one thing to be afraid of answering the phone. It was another thing to hang up the phone. Lin Xiao could only brace himself and answer the call.
As expected, just as Lin Xiao put the phone to his ear, Lin Guodongs angry voice came through the phone. “Lin Xiao, where did you go? Director Li called me just now and said that you had disappeared a few days ago..”
