Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2859 Advantage

Quan Chumeng said, "Yes, it's not short. When I was performing the ritual just now, I felt that someone was indeed performing the ritual not far from the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion. But that person seemed to have stopped for a while and then performed the ritual again."

Quan Chumeng's feeling was correct. When he felt someone was performing a ritual not far from the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion, it was exactly when Li Pingrun was performing a ritual for the ground subsidence. Quan Chumeng said that there seemed to be a pause in between, and that period of time was the interval between Li Pingrun's two rituals.

Nie Huihou was somewhat dissatisfied after hearing this and asked, "He stopped performing the ritual for a while just now? If that's the case, then why did you tell me about the time he stopped?"

"I just felt that the ritual over there stopped for a while. It's just a feeling." Quan Chumeng said.

"You have to tell me if you feel that way!" Nie Huihou said, "Otherwise you'll just let me wait!"

"Elder Nie, even if I tell you, it will be useless." Quan Chumeng said.

"Why is it useless?" Nie Huihou asked, "How do you know it's useless?"

Quan Chumeng said, "I don't even know whether he stopped in the middle or not. It makes no difference whether I tell you or not."

"You should have told me then, what if I could practice martial arts at that time?" Nie Huihou said. In fact, he also knew that it was dangerous to practice martial arts during the time between the two rituals performed by that person, but he felt that since he had already said this to Nie Huihou, he should tell it to the end, and he couldn't make it seem that what he said before was unreasonable.

Quan Chumeng said, "Elder Nie, I'm not sure what the person doing the magic over there is up to, so how can I help you do it at this time? If the magic over there hasn't stopped at all, but I just feel it has stopped, and I help you do it, wouldn't that expose our location? How dangerous! The person over there can do magic, what if he uses magic to find us here?"

"You don't even believe in your own feelings?" Nie Huihou said, "Aren't you always very confident? This time you felt that the people over there stopped the ritual, but you couldn't be sure whether it had stopped? Didn't you accept Huanshi before? Didn't you have a big advantage? Then where is your advantage?"

Quan Chumeng was dissatisfied again, thinking: Elder Nie is too aggressive! I told him for his own good! If he is not worried about being discovered, what should I be afraid of? Isn't it for his own good? I am a person who has never received the Huanshi magic. Even if someone finds where I am and sees me with him, what does it matter? What is there to be afraid of? Isn't he the one to be afraid of? Why is he so arrogant!

As soon as he thought of this, Quan Chumeng frowned slightly.

With the help of candlelight, Nie Huihao saw Quan Chumeng frowning. Although the frown was not big, Nie Huihao could see it clearly.

"What do you mean by frowning?" Nie Huihou asked.

At this time, Quan Chumeng felt even more uncomfortable, thinking: Even this can be noticed by him? Why is he looking at my expression so carefully? Is he suspicious of me? Will I make him suspicious? He is thinking too much! Besides, what does it matter if he sees it? What does my frowning mean?
But he said, "I'm just thinking about things."

Quan Chumeng thought to himself: I must endure it! I must endure it! When I see him, I will think of endless wealth and glory! I must think of him as someone who enjoys endless wealth and glory! That way I can endure it!
Nie Huihou said, "What's so difficult to think of that you need to frown?"
