Chapter 1938. Virtual Table
Seeing how shocked Han Sen looked, Hai’er took his reaction for a confirmation. She then murmured, “We shouldn’t talk here. We should find someplace else to chat.”
“I think you have the wrong guy; I have no clue about what you’re talking about.” Han Sen acted through his shock.
Hai’er lifted her lips in a little smile and said, “There is no use in pretending. I am a thief, and nothing escapes my senses. I will tell this to a Buddha King; you know what will happen to you and Speechless if I do, right?”
Before Han Sen could put another word in, Hai’er continued. “Oh, but just so you know, I am not being hostile. Actually, I would like to strike a trade with you.”
After saying that, Hai’er pulled Han Sen away from Buddha’s Path. They walked out of the city and went to the banks of a nearby river.
Han Sen wished to hear what she wanted to say, so he didn’t resist following her out.
“Okay, let’s talk here.” Hai’er let Han Sen go, then sat down atop a rock. She smiled and said, “Given your relationship with Speechless Buddha Lady, I can only assume you know the secrets to heaven.”
“What secrets?” Han Sen asked Hai’er.
“Stop pretending! Heaven has opened many times, and many races have been here. Only ten of them can reach the end, each and every time. I believe there is a secret to this somewhere.” Hai’er was peering right at Han Sen when she continued. “With Speechless’ reputation, she must assuredly know how to reach the other side. I don’t want anything from you. All I want is for you to take me with you and help me reach the end. If you do, I’ll keep the relationship between you two a secret. I promise.”
