Chapter 797: Turmoil
“Why are you here?”
Shentu asked first, then scanned the surroundings, as if searching for traces of others.
When he saw the shattered Buddha Mountain and Cuiyun Palace, he was visibly shaken. “How could this happen?!”
Zhao Wenhao noticed Shentu’s expression and narrowed his eyes slightly. As he recounted recent events, he watched Shentu’s reaction.
“By Lord Zhou Qi’s order, I was supposed to capture the intruder and seek the assistance of Lord Ksitigarbha. But after arriving here, I encountered this unexpected situation. As for Lord Shentu, shouldn’t you be busy launching a war against the immortal monsters? How come you’re here?”
As he spoke, Zhao Wenhao glanced at Shentu’s right arm and noticed a slight tremor that indicated an injury. And if he remembered correctly, when the shadow fled earlier, he vaguely saw blood dripping from the shadow’s right arm.
Shentu noticed Zhao Wenhao’s gaze, subtly hiding his right hand at his side as he replied, “I was on my way to Negate Bridge. Upon hearing the commotion, I rushed here.”
Looking up at the shattered Cuiyun Palace inside Buddha Mountain, he saw the completely petrified Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and Di Ting inside, and his expression became solemn.
“At such a critical time in the Netherworld, Lord Ksitigarbha was crucial. How could something like this happen? Did you see who attacked?” Shentu inquired.
