C51 (2/2)

”You didn't finish!”

Hearing that, Qiu Xuan looked at me indifferently, and I met his gaze without any hesitation. Their gazes met, but each had their own ulterior motives.

”You still haven't told me about the demonic cultivator's secret scripture!”

”You suspect me?”

Hearing Qiu Xuan's cold voice, I smiled. ”Of course! Qiu Hong was just a scapegoat. Although he was smart, he was not the type to control the overall situation. There were many flaws in his thoughts. You said that a secret manual of such a large Celestial Sect falling into the exact spot where he was practising, and it just so happened to be a coincidence? Accident? I don't believe it! ”

”Finished!”

”You're also a smart person!” I continued to say with a faint smile, ”You participated in that encirclement against the demonic cultivators, and your hatred for Qiu Xi is extremely deep. If you want to deal with Qiu Xi, you will probably never be able to take revenge by relying solely on your own strength. Qiu Hong is undoubtedly the one you've chosen, and almost the only one you've ever met! ”

”Very good, very good!”

Qiu Xuan didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled and looked at me in admiration.

”You really are my chosen ally. It's not in vain for me to reveal so much information to you. That's right, I stealthily left that book on the ground! ”

I didn't ask Qiu Xuan why he didn't train because it was completely unnecessary. For him to be able to speak to me so frankly, it seems that he has already tied me and his fate together. No matter which one of us is in trouble, the other will not be able to escape.

”Let's go back and talk to the rest of those old bastards from the White Jade Sect. In the future, if there's nothing else, don't look for me anymore.” Oh, I forgot to tell you, Xu Cangyuan promised to help me, but don't tell him my real identity. ”

Looking at my retreating back, Qiu Xuan suddenly whispered, ”Do you really believe him?”

I paused, a moment of hesitation actually appearing in my heart. That's right, do I really believe him? ”Even if he was the former A'Hu, even if he was my former brother …” I believe him, he is my brother! ”

After throwing all my doubts and suspicions to the back of my mind, I took Qiu Xuan and Qiu Hong's lives to gamble this game of chess for Ah Hu!

” Master, Qiu Xuan brought disciple to a place today! ” Sitting across from Puxuan, I picked up a fruit and gnawed on it as I spoke. Some things, I said, are much more effective than when they ask.

”Oh, where did he take you?”

”He went to the Twelfth Peak of the Sky Sect.”

”What for?” Pu Xuan was slightly puzzled.

Hmph, old fellow, you really know how to pretend. Even though you know my whereabouts, you still pretend to be stupid.

Qiu Xuan said that he was very unconvinced by Ling Kong becoming the head. Perhaps he's afraid that I don't believe him.

”Look at his junior apprentice-brother?”

Seeing Pu Xuan frown, I knew that he really suspected that the 12 peaks are filled with extremely powerful array formations. Pu Xuan's eyes and ears are probably unable to follow him in.

”Yes.” I nodded my head. ”His junior brother is called Qiu Hong. He had been dependent on me since he was young and has a good relationship with me. However, because he offended Ling Kong, his cultivation was destroyed. Right now, it's better to die than to live.”

Every time Qiu Xuan meets with me, he sets up a formation so that no one can overhear him. As for meeting him, it doesn't matter. Qiu Xuan is a person at the False Sky Realm, I don't believe that he would be able to quietly break through his array and hear our conversation.

”Did he say anything to you?”

”No, he said, some things are too much to say. What do you mean, Master? ”

I looked at him with a face full of innocence and puzzlement, adding on to Pu Xuan's many years of understanding towards Chen Ziming, he probably didn't hold any suspicions towards me.

”Master, are you alright? ”I was injured today, so I'll be going back to rest.”

Pu Xuan waved his hand, indicating that I was fine. Before I left, I looked at his deep expression, and secretly snickered in my heart. You old guys can slowly ponder over Qiu Xuan's intentions. In any case, I'm an idiot, so I don't understand anything!

Tomorrow is the day to reward those treasures, Heaven's Heart Pill, Falling Star Sword …
