A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

Princess Wanlong bit her red lips, staring at Lin Xiu for a long time. Only after confirming that this was neither an illusion nor a phantom in the test did she speak again:

"I was just careless."

"By the way, you... are you really Brother Lin?" The Princess Wanlong was afraid that Lin Xiu would say those words he had said once in the illusion.

"Of course I am me, who else could I be?" Lin Xiu said, shrugging.

Princess Wanlong breathed a sigh of relief, her shoulders relaxed slightly, but a complex emotion welled up in her heart.

Looking at Lin Xiu's familiar face, she recalled her experience in the illusion of inner demons.

She wanted to ask Lin Xiu some questions and confirm some things with him.

But when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she didn't know how to begin.

After a long silence, Princess Wanlong suddenly asked a question that surprised Lin Xiu.

"Brother Lin, what is your relationship with the Dao Master?"

"What relationship? Why would the princess ask that?" Lin Xiu raised an eyebrow, as if he had thought of something.

"Never mind why I'm asking this, just tell me what our relationship is!"

Princess Wanlong's voice suddenly grew louder, loud enough to catch the crane's attention.

amount.

Who is the Dao Master?

Could it be a third party?

Despite having countless questions in her mind, the crane kept her eyes down and tried to minimize her presence, appearing indifferent and aloof.

Of course... in fact, it really has nothing to do with it.

........

"Lord Dao~"

Lin Xiu sighed. Since Princess Wanlong reacted this way, it meant that she had already realized something.

Normally, he could have gotten away with it.

But now... Lin Xiu felt it was better not to do that.

"Since Your Highness has questions, I will certainly answer them."

"To be honest, I am the Dao Lord. Or rather, the Dao Lord is my battle puppet."

"From beginning to end... I have been the one controlling the Dao Lord!"

Princess Wanlong: "......"

Upon hearing Lin Xiu's words, Princess Wanlong fell silent for a moment, and then...

Hahahaha!~

"Just as I thought! Just as I thought! ...So that's how it is!~"

Princess Wanlong looked up at the sky, laughing incessantly. The previously invisible bluish-green veins on her fair neck continued to dilate, and her face also turned rosy.

That flushed face wasn't from shyness, but... from anger!

Lin Xiu had been deceiving her from the very beginning!

.......

Lin Xiu noticed that Princess Wanlong was acting strangely, and chuckled as he asked in return:

"If I'm not mistaken, the princess seems quite angry?"

Princess Wanlong looked up at Lin Xiu, a hint of tenderness flashing in her purple eyes. But the next second, that tenderness was completely dispelled by resistance and aloofness!

"Yes."

"I am indeed very angry."

"However, I'm not angry with you. I'm only angry at myself for being so naive and unaware that I'd been deceived by a bad person!"

Lin Xiu: "......"

Princess Wanlong spoke with great force and conviction, but Lin Xiu was speechless.

You're not angry with him yet? Only angry with yourself?

Is this how a primary school girl talks?

Lin Xiu has always been happy to communicate with people he can communicate with.

However, at this moment, Princess Wanlong was clearly in a state of being unable to communicate.

In this situation, Lin Xiu naturally had no intention of coaxing Princess Wanlong, and simply chuckled and said:

"Alright, then please tell me, Your Highness, what exactly did I lie to you about?"

"What did you lie to me about?"

"You lied to me! You lied to me... You lied to me..."

Princess Wanlong's mind raced as she tried to find evidence that Lin Xiu had lied to her.

However, upon closer reflection, she realized that Lin Xiu had indeed not lied to her about the Dao Lord!

She had asked the Dao Lord about the matter, but the Dao Lord had only given her vague answers and had never given a direct answer!

Depend on!

Lin Xiu, that scoundrel, is just too cunning!

Princess Wanlong's anger did not subside because she "did not find evidence of being deceived," but instead became even stronger and more overwhelming!

And so, almost as if possessed, she blurted out her thoughts:

You deceived my feelings!

Upon hearing this, not only was Lin Xiu at a loss, but even the Princess of Ten Thousand Dragons was stunned.

Shouldn't she have laid out some groundwork before saying something like that?

Just as Princess Wanlong was blaming herself for her imperfect speech, Lin Xiu's counterattack arrived.

How did I deceive your feelings?

Did I tell you I liked you? Or did we have any intimate relationship?

"If Your Highness thinks that my kindness towards you is a sign of liking you, then... Your Highness, don't you think you're being a bit too narcissistic!?"

"you!"

Princess Wanlong bit her red lips and stared at Lin Xiu without saying a word.

However, she didn't think she was wrong; she just thought Lin Xiu was too cunning!

We won't leave her any leverage! Can we still be friends?

Enraged, Princess Wanlong deactivated her brain's censorship mechanism and unleashed her fury once more:

Where am I being narcissistic?

"Who told you to be so good to me? You gave me the elixir of immortality and we traveled together to seek enlightenment."

"If it's not because you have improper thoughts about me, then what is it?!"

Perhaps because she had just been through the baptism of the inner demon illusion, Princess Wanlong became much more irritable and thoughtless than usual.

Lin Xiu: "......"

"The elixir of immortality, travel, enlightenment—what does this prove?"

"Yan'er and I have done this kind of thing too?"

"Does this mean I have improper thoughts about Yan'er?"

"Hmm? Yan'er?"

Princess Wanlong was stunned for a few seconds. Why didn't she remember knowing this person?

and many more!

She remembered! It was that woman in green! Lin Xiu had indeed called her Yan'er!

"You did all the things you and I did with her?" Princess Wanlong asked, her eyes red.

"Of course!" Lin Xiu answered decisively.

"Now, Princess, you should know that I have no improper thoughts about you, right?"

Having just been intimate with Princess Shencan a few days ago, Lin Xiu's gaze was now extremely upright.

however.

The more upright Lin Xiu was, the angrier Princess Wanlong became.

"Boom!~"

A burst of purple dragon energy erupted! The Princess of Ten Thousand Dragons' long purple hair fluttered in the north wind, and her purple-gold dragon armor reflected the snow, making her figure appear heroic and proud!

"Lin Xiu! To treat the princess so disrespectfully, making me and that fake ancient imperial descendant with diluted bloodline... I think you deserve a beating!"

"Come! Put on your puppet armor! And fight me with all your might!"

"If I don't beat you up, I'll be unworthy of being the daughter of an ancient emperor!"

"what?"

Lin Xiu was a little taken aback.

Isn't Wanlong Huang's anger a bit off-topic? Is she really angry because she and Yan Ruyu are treated the same?

No, that's not right.

Lin Xiu frowned. He noticed that from the moment he arrived until now, the object of Wanlong Huangnu's anger had changed several times, but none of them had settled on a single one.

In other words, Princess Wanlong was angry for the sake of being angry? ... She was just venting her emotions?

Lin Xiu put his hands behind his back and materialized the Heavenly Evolution Abacus to deduce whether his guess was correct.

"Clap clap~"
