Chapter 1189 - Is So About Me? (2/2)

The impact of that palm thrust had been so powerful that a depression of his shape had for hi Jiuxiao’s face as he cried, “I just wanted to check if you are dead or not out of worry… Did you really have to get so angry and use sothat he knehom the pal Xuan!

to harm you!

Did you have to attack me so mercilessly?</e of weariness consu Jiuxiao

It see Xuan, he had never lived a single day in peace

Struggling out of the wall, he turned to look at Zhang Xuan once more, only to see that the culprit who had cruelly har on the sahtest bit of guilt on his face at all, as if the assault that had happened earlier was none of his business

Seeing this sight, the Golden Origin Cauldron shook its body triu with ‘you reap what you sow’ “I told you thatsome kind of unique cultivation technique, but you just wouldn’t listen…”

“He really is cultivating…”

The lips of Wu shi+ and the others twitched in disbelief

They had seen plenty of cultivators who had eccentric cultivation techniques, but this was the first ti like this

Was there really a cultivation technique like this in the world?

A moment later, Wu shi+ recovered fro is cultivating, let’s sit here and guard him Elder Gu, you should return to the Master Teacher Pavilion first and bring some reinforcement here to seal the area Also, make sure to report this matter to the headquarters”

“Yes!” An elder nodded before leaving the underground chamber

…

The world around hi Xuan finally ca within a tattered hut

The saround chamber was still beneath his feet It seemed like he had been transported to the other end of the altar

He tried to explore the area, only to find that there was a peculiar suction force fro hi It would be difficult for hi shi+, weXuan was about to scan the area, he suddenly heard a faint voice before hiure staring at hi Xuan frowned

The other party was the person who had brought the grade-8 painting of the Sorrowless Old Man to Appraisal Convention to have the seal on it deciphered!

The copper-ure did not reply to that question Instead, he stared at Zhang Xuan coldly for a very long , didn’t you?”

“Altered?” Zhang Xuan’s heart skipped a beat, but he did not let it show on the surface With an indignant frown on his face, he harru aside the fact that I do not have the ability to do so, as aas unethical as that! That would be as good as tra on the efforts of others, and only the most despicable of scum would commit such atrocities!”

“How can that be?” The copper- Xuan’s wordsbeneath the seal, and there’s also a visible difference in the conception of the painting Only your consciousness entered the painting throughout the entire Appraisal Convention, so who else could it be other than you?”

Back at the Appraisal Convention, when he saw that what lay beneath the painting was not what he had expected but a group of ladies bathing, he could hardly believe his eyes In that instant, he felt that he had wasted

However, when he returned to his residence and studied the painting carefully, it did not take too long for hi was amiss

In the first place, the fact that he had been able to notice the presence of a seal concealed within the paintingwas at least on par with Guild Leader Meng of the Painter Guild

Through his careful examination, he noticed that while the artistic style of the bathing beautiful ladies was a close i Style, there were still some discrepancies between the two

The Sorrowless Old Man had gone to the extent of shaving off a layer of his painting to ensure that the surface remained smooth when he added in the seal This clearly showed that he had a deep obsession for ensuring the perfection his painting, and he would never allow any flaws to plague his work

While the unsealed painting looked wholesome in the surface, upon closer exa the bathing beautiful ladies was leveled slightly higher than the rest of the painting FurtherhtlyFrom these two discrepancies, it was not too difficult to deduce that the bathing beautiful ladies had been added onto the painting recently

Corroborating that with the happenings prior to the unsealing of the painting, given that Zhang Xuan was the only one who had entered the painting, it was not too difficult to deduce that he was the culprit

“I must say that you have reallybeautiful ladies only took up a s, I’m sure that you are able to tell how exquisitely detailed it is My consciousness only entered the painting for a brief instant, and given that I had to devotethe seal, how could I possibly have the ti? That is clearly an impossible feat! Not even the Sorrowless Old Man would have been able to pull it off within the li Xuan explained hi that the other party would not believe hiure frowned

This was also the issue that had confounded hi the matter

All in all, the other party had only been in the painting for less than three h impossible to make an addition that fused nearly perfectly into another co Even 8-star painters would not be capable of pulling off such a feat!

But there was no one else could have pulled it off other than the young ure’s hesitation, Zhang Xuan quickly added, “Putting aside the fact that I did not have time to pull it off, I’m also not the only one whose consciousness entered the painting that day”

“You aren’t the only one?”

“Indeed Have you forgotten it already? Zhang Jiuxiao’s consciousness entered the painting as well, only to be attacked by the spirit and sprout durians on his head,” Zhang Xuan said

Hearing those words, the face of the copper- Jiuxiao’s consciousness entered the painting as well!”

“He’s fro Clan, and surely I need not say e Clan Further ite, they would even snatch a living human without any hesitation! Do you remember how he said that he kneay to decipher the seal? Perhaps, he ht have used so before faking his failure so that you wouldn’t suspect hi Clan…” The lips of the copper-htly as fear crept into his eyes

…

Ah choo!

Shortly after applying so slightly, Zhang Jiuxiao suddenly sneezed

trau for him to know that he was at least still on someone’s mind!
