Gu Shenwei had a constant feeling that Golden Roc Fort killers were hiding in the vicinity. It was only right that Supreme King would send personnel to keep an eye on a figure as important in Barren Sect as Kang Wenhui. However, not a single killer appeared as they made their way to the foot of the mountain on which Four Truths Temple was situated.

The four Barren Sect disciples took extreme caution. Kang Wenhui walked alongside the youth while the other three maintained at least ten steps' distance away from each other to keep guard. If anything unexpected occurred, Gu Shenwei would be the first one to be killed.

It was already evening by the time they reached Leftslope Vihara. Gu Shenwei had been worried that the monks remained in the city to look for Maid Lotus, but he began to feel at ease when he saw two bald heads in the distance.
