Zhuo Bufan challenged Master Due again but suffered a crushing defeat. Master Due also said that he was only being lenient to Zhuo Bufan out of respect for Mu Qing. The sword technique of Rongtianling is to the Three Dharma Seal Sword of Southern Shaolin like a frog in a well trying to speak of the ocean. Liu Lin recited the passphrase, and the Abbot allowed both Mu Qing and Liu Lin to enter together.
The Abbot revealed Mu Qing's identity and handed him the letter left by Cheng Yu back then for him to read. In his letter, Cheng Yu stated that he had hidden the Bodhi Seal in Futu Temple back then and that the person coming to retrieve it should present the passphrase as verification. He also believed that the person entrusted with this task would surely live up to his trust.
Liu Lin did not understand why Mu Qing could enter when the Abbot clearly knew that only someone with the passphrase could enter here. Mu Qing frankly stated that he knew in Pingyao, Shanxi, that the Head of the Bodhi Hall of Southern Shaolin was his master, Cheng Yu, and that Mu Qing was also Cheng Yu's true successor. Although the Abbot had never met Mu Qing before, he recognized his identity from the tattoos on his back.
Cheng Yu, the Head of the Bodhi Hall, taught eleven people throughout his life, but he never passed down his mantle and couldn't determine who would be the fourth-generation successor to the Head of the Bodhi Hall. Cheng Yu passed away at Futu Temple. Before his passing, he designated his successor. Su Yunzhi was Cheng Yu's eldest disciple, but he died tragically at the hands of Qing soldiers after the Hundred Days' Reform.
And Mu Qing had extremely high talent and grand aspirations. Ultimately, Cheng Yu passed on the position of Head of the Bodhi Hall to Mu Qing, also entrusting this heavy responsibility and hardship to him. Mu Qing did not expect that the Bodhi successor he had been desperately searching for was actually himself.
The Abbot handed the secret manual of the Three Dharma Seal Sword of the Bodhi Hall to Mu Qing, and this set of sword techniques could only be received by the successor. The Abbot handed the Bodhi Seal to Mu Qing. Mu Qing opened it and found it empty. The Abbot explained that many years ago, the successor of the Head of the Discipline Hall rebelled and defected to the court, offering the Discipline Hall Seal.
After this incident, Cheng Yu worried that the Bodhi Hall Seal would fall into the hands of others, so he personally destroyed the Bodhi Seal and used another method to pass down the secret clues. And the clues for this inheritance were recorded in the last letter left by Cheng Yu. Since Mu Qing was unable to recite the passphrase, the Abbot handed this letter to Liu Lin.
After Liu Lin had memorized the contents of the letter, the Abbot burned the letter. Wang Jialuo arrived with the Beiyang army in formation. Wang Jialuo wanted to enter the temple to continue investigating the Jingtan hidden treasure. Master Due intercepted their group. Although the Beiyang army Wang Jialuo brought had guns, they still could not threaten Master Due. Seeing that he could not enter the temple today, Zhuo Bufan simply led the Rongtianling group and quickly withdrew.
Mu Qing inquired with the Abbot about the memorial tablet of his master, Cheng Yu. He went to pay his respects. After leaving Futu Temple, Mu Qing told Wang Jialuo that he had not obtained any information and also concealed his own identity.
Mu Qing stated that the clue found in Futu Temple was also a treasure map for the Jingtan hidden treasure, and the other half was the other document stolen from the palace, while the Discipline Hall Seal was in Zhuo Bufan's hands. Therefore, Zhuo Bufan could not be killed for now. However, Wang Jialuo was stubbornly focused only on arresting people and completely disregarded the matter of searching for the Jingtan hidden treasure.
Wang Jialuo asked Mu Qing why he was able to enter the temple. Mu Qing explained that Liu Lin could enter because she had the passphrase, and the third-generation successor of the Bodhi Hall they were looking for had passed away in the temple. The reason the Abbot allowed him to enter was also to make the people from the Imperial Household Department give up. Wang Jialuo did not raise any objections to Mu Qing's explanation.
After Wang Jialuo left, Mu Qing told Getai that the Bodhi Seal had indeed been destroyed, but Zhuo Bufan would surely believe that this seal was in his hands and would keep an eye on him. Given that only Liu Lin knew the secret, Mu Qing had to keep her by his side. Zhuo Bufan was greatly affected by his defeat by Due. Huo Qin noticed Zhuo Bufan's dejection and came to comfort him.
Zhuo Bufan knew that Mu Qing had let him learn about the Three Dharma Seal Sword, and now Due had shown him the inheritance of Southern Shaolin. Now he only wanted to quickly find the Jingtan hidden treasure and obtain the martial arts manuals within it. He wanted to make the Rongtian Sword Technique famous throughout the world. Yu Huanjie secretly met Qing Yi Xinfeng. Qing Yi Xinfeng learned from him that Liu Lin had valuable clues in her possession.
Zhuo Bufan's next step was to go to Shuntian Mansion to report back to Prince Qi. Mu Qing would also return to the capital to report back. Zhuo Bufan also wanted to snatch the seal in Mu Qing's hands. Mu Qing met with Liu Lin privately.
Liu Lin knew that Mu Qing had not told anyone that she was the one who held the secret of the Bodhi Seal, and she also promised to keep the secret that Mu Qing was the successor of the Bodhi Hall. The two reached a gentleman's agreement to keep each other's identity and the treasure's secret. Wang Jialuo knew that Mu Qing was concealing something about the treasure hunt, but he understood Mu Qing's choice.
Wang Jialuo knew that Beiyang was also after the treasure. He could only find Zhuo Bufan as soon as possible to understand the Dagu murder case. Wang Jialuo guessed that Zhuo Bufan had more clues in his hands, and even if he didn't get the clues from Futu Temple, he would continue searching. Lin Haohan guessed that only Liu Lin had obtained the treasure's secret from Futu Temple.
He came to inquire about the news from Liu Lin and was even willing to join the Tongmenghui for money. As long as Liu Lin told him the secret, he would help her search for the treasure.
