Chapter 189 - 179: Cave of Ten Thousand Gods; Faces of Ten Thousand Gods Revealed 5
"What is it?" Hua Cheng asked.
He turned around to look at Hua Cheng, "White No-Face. Why would he come to Mount TongLu?"
"Perhaps his powers haven't recovered completely and wants to borrow the Kiln to be reborn into this world." Hua Cheng replied.
"If that's the case, that would mean the him now is not... a Supreme?" Xie Lian wondered.
"That's not entirely impossible." Hua Cheng said.
Earlier, White No-Face impersonated Feng Xin and Mu Qing and suddenly charged out, his abrupt appearance both shocking and terrifying. On top of that, Xie Lian's first reaction was "he can't be defeated, run away!", so he grabbed Hua Cheng and fled. The two didn't actually face him for too long, so, they weren't able to gauge just what exactly was White No-Face's current true strength.
Was it all just a bluff? Or was he stronger than he seemed? Exchanging rough blows for no more than the flash of a second, nothing could be determined. Xie Lian muttered, "I subconsciously thought he was stronger when I only saw those two fake skins, but maybe... he hasn't completely recovered right now, and maybe he's currently at his weakest? Otherwise why would he come to Mount TongLu? Maybe... I can give it a shot."
See if he could take him down!
Hua Cheng immediately replied, "Good. I'll go fight him"
Xie Lian instantly snapped out of it and hastily said, "No, don't. Don't face him straight on. Just me giving it a shot is enough!"
Usually, Supreme Ghost Kings would never face each other in combat so easily, just as how Ship-Sinking Black Water and Crimson Rain Sought Flower coexisted in peace. The Ghost Kings weren't like the heavenly officials of the heavens where their strengths, how big their palaces, how many worshippers, the parameters of their powers were all well known by anyone who cared to keep track; they would hide their true strength the same way they hide their pasts. Since they possessed no knowledge of each other's strengths and no one knew what the consequences would be if two Supremes should start fighting, if things could be kept at a balance then they shall be kept that way.
