Chapter 191: Answers
Hearing this, Wu Shang nodded repeatedly, and Hu Rui'an likewise looked at the old woman with a skeptical gaze, saying, "I know Falling God Peak well enough, yet I have never heard of its disciples or followers being required to kill anyone described as those of divine nature."
The old woman's expression shifted slightly, and she said, "This matter concerns the very survival of Falling God Peak as a sect. Only those at the core of the order know of it and act on it in secret. It could never be allowed to leak outward, so it is perfectly normal that you would not know of it."
But Hu Rui'an shook his head and said, "If this matter cannot be allowed to leak outward, then how did you come to know of it?"
"There is no wall through which no wind passes..."
The old woman was about to continue her explanation when Hu Rui'an cut her off, saying, "Setting aside whether what you say is true or not, I still have no idea what you actually mean by those of divine nature."
Hearing this, the old woman paused. She sat on the damp floor, licked her cracked and withered lips, and fixed her clouded gaze on Hu Rui'an, "Believe it or not, this old one has said what she has to say. As for those of divine nature..."
"Such people are one in ten thousand, far rarer by countless times than even the so-called peerless martial geniuses of the martial world..."
"Those of divine nature are born with divine gifts, possessing from birth extraordinary abilities that ordinary people cannot possess. They are profoundly different from common people, and their path has nothing in common with the martial path."
At those words, Wu Shang and the others all exchanged strange looks. The divine gifts and innate abilities the old woman was describing were things none of them had ever heard of before.
