181 Another Bombshell (1/2)
Not to mention the others, even Ling Chen was taken by surprise by Long Bai's sudden declaration. He didn't see that coming at all.
Earlier, he had this gut feeling that something was wrong or something bad was going to happen. However, he wasn't able to put his finger around it.
Many speculations ran wild in his minds. However, the thought about his cover being blown never came to his mind.
Ling Chen was very confident in his illusion or transformation. His illusions Art had reached a level at which even a peak Martial Saint realm expert wouldn't be able to tell his illusions apart from reality.
Even if that Martial Saint was practicing a magical eye Battle Technique, it would still be pretty hard to see through his illusions and disguise.
Unless one was a Demi-God rank expert or had a spiritual power that was far stronger than his, they could never see through his transformation or illusion.
Yet, that old geezer Long Bai who was neither a Demi-God rank expert nor had a spiritual power that far surpassed him was able to somehow see through his disguise.
How could he not be surprised!
Even though Ling Chen was a little shocked and surprised that Long Bai somehow knew his true identity and even had the guts to announce it in front of a bunch of people, he didn't look scared or afraid at all.
Ling Chen remained seated in his seat as a faint smile appeared on his face. His expression was like the still water in an ancient well. It was as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
Meanwhile, the entire main hall was still swathed in a death-like silence. Only heavy breathing could be heard.
At the same time, all the guests had their gazes gathered on Ling Chen.
They were all inevitably shocked to hear that the nameless and harmless Venerable Monk was in fact the notorious and Heaven-defying little devil from the Heaven Desolate Region.
While most people in the Heaven Suppression Region didn't know anything about Ling Chen as they didn't care about anything that was happening in a backward place such as the Heaven Desolate Region, it wasn't the case for the people in the main hall.
They were all people who wielded great powers in the Heaven Suppression Region, as such they were privy to a few secrets.
They knew about the Tomb Of The Great Luo Martial God as well as the Nine Keys needed to open it. They also knew that the last key was lost somewhere in the Heaven Desolate Region as well as the Ten Demi-Gods' search of it.
Because of all this, they've been paying attention to the Heaven Desolate Region. It was also how they heard about the legend of Ling Chen also known as the little devil and his devouring ability.
By the time some of them wanted to make a move on him in order to dig out his secrets, he suddenly was vanished. However, they didn't expect that he was right here in front of them at this moment.
”How did you know about my true identity?” Ling Chen suddenly asked as he was looking at Long Bai with his cold and emotionless pupils.
Meanwhile, Long Bai was staring at him with a smug and scheming smile on his face. One could tell that he was doing all this in purpose and had some ulterior motives for doing so.
Swoosh!
Having said that, Ling Chen suddenly changed back into his true appearance. At this moment, he didn't look like the old amiable bald monk anymore.
He was now a fifteen or sixteen years old young man clad in a white robe that was even whiter than snow. His jet black hair hung loosely on his shoulders like black ink.
His eyes were like two perfect pieces of gemstones. It was unknown if his eyes were black or blue as his right pupil was completely covered with red magic rune while the left one was cover with a blue magic rune or circle.
Each of his eyes gave off a different vibe. His left eye that contained the blue magic rune exuded a divine feeling while the right one felt rather demonic and evil.
He was handsome to the point of being a bit demonic. Many ladies would feel ashamed when looking at him. His body was as toned as any man could wish his to be.
He didn't possess a shocking imposing aura. Aside from his pair of eyes and his beautiful facial features, he looked extremely ordinary with no shocking power. He didn't look like a powerful warrior at all.
However, everyone knew that this was just a facade.
After knowing that is cover was blown, Ling Chen didn't even bother to hide his identity anymore.
