Chapter 976: A Probing Test
Chen Daoqiu led Chen Changsheng to the Back Mountain.
But he did not follow him all the way, choosing instead to wait outside.
Thus, Chen Changsheng entered the mountain alone.
Chen Daoqiu gazed at Mister's retreating back. Truthfully, when Chen Changsheng first brought the matter up, he had thought it highly improbable. Yet standing here now, he felt that the mountain lord might actually be willing to come. It was a feeling that came from nowhere.
Following the path in his memory, Chen Changsheng walked onward.
He arrived inside the Cave Abode. Looking up, he saw a divine statue without any incense offerings, its face completely blank.
It was exceptionally quiet here, devoid of even the slightest extraneous noise.
Chen Changsheng cupped his hands in greeting toward the statue and said softly, "Mountain lord, This Chen has come again."
The statue swayed slightly, as if waking from a slumber.
