Is Xia Rushuang going to show her cards?

He didn't expect this day to come so soon. Could it be that he really revealed a flaw during this period of time?

"Condolences."

Xu Chen showed an expression of helplessness and forced out these two words from his mouth.

"Some say he had several affairs and died at the hands of one of them. I still don't know if that's true or not."

Xia Rushuang recalled what Ying Xixue had said a few weeks ago and looked at Xu Chen calmly: "Do you think it's true?"

of course it's true.

It really couldn't be more true.

Of course, Xu Chen would not repeat what happened that year. He suspected that Xia Rushuang wanted to know the truth of that year this time.

So is it true or false?

If I tell a lie, Xia Rushuang might think I'm trying hard to distance myself from the matter.

To be honest...

wrong!

It’s not a question of true or false!

If he were to consider the question of truth or falsehood now, it would be like considering the life or death of his girlfriend.

Some questions don't ask you to answer them at all, but there are other points that require your attention.

The same applies to this question.

If it were an ordinary person, without knowing anything about Xia Rushuang's old friend, he would not immediately draw a conclusion, but would ask what kind of person this person is.

Otherwise, how can we make a judgment?

It’s too cliché!

After Xu Chen thought it through, he asked, "I still don't know what kind of person Master's old friend is, so I can't make a judgment."

"Yeah, I almost forgot."

Xia Rushuang looked as if she suddenly understood something, as if she remembered that there was no introduction.

I believe you!

What Xu Chen was certain of was that Xia Rushuang had planned this routine a long time ago, wanting him to fall into the trap naturally.

If he jumped to conclusions directly, Xia Rushuang might say, "You don't even know this person, why are you so quick to draw conclusions?"

It’s too risky!

"He has always been very kind. He used to be my master and took great care of me..."

Xia Rushuang told Xu Chen about the past, and even she herself was inevitably immersed in memories.

"My disciple, do you know? There is a kind of bird in this world..."

It is true that she now possesses unparalleled cultivation and supreme status, but if she were given a chance to go back...

She will still go back.

She will still miss the years she spent with Xu Chen in the martial arts world.

Xu Chen also wanted to reminisce and wanted to show an expression as if he was lost in memories.

But he didn't dare.

He couldn't afford to reveal himself when being observed at such a close distance.

After listening to Xia Rushuang's description, Xu Chen said, "He sounds like a good person. Perhaps those rumors are false."

"But he's a great liar."

Xia Rushuang forced herself to suppress her inner emotions and said, "The technique he gave me was not found in the secret realm at all, but was made up by himself."

"His swordsmanship wasn't acquired from fighting a sacred beast as he claimed, but rather from buying it from a Taoist priest in the martial arts world."

"He described the meat of the second-level spirit beast, the Swift Pig, as the meat of a sacred beast and fed it to me. I was deeply moved for several years."

"For the last time, he said he would come back."

"But he never came back."

She said it in an extremely calm tone, so calm that it was terrifying.

Xu Chen felt like he was crying.

55. Bet your life!

I am sorry.

Xu Chen really wanted to say these three words, but he couldn't.

He knew that he owed Xia Rushuang too much and owed too many people.

He could only apologize in his heart and repay everything after obtaining the treasure and regaining his strength.

Now is not the time.

Xu Chen was sure that Xia Rushuang would not listen to his explanation now.

It is even possible to kill him with one sword.

Xia Rushuang three hundred years ago might not have done that.

Unfortunately, it is no longer three hundred years ago.

"That's a bit...it's hard to say whether the rumor is true or not."

Xu Chen suppressed the throbbing in his heart, kept calm, and spoke as an ordinary disciple.

He acted in a dilemma, like an ordinary disciple who didn't know Xia Rushuang's attitude and therefore didn't dare to make any judgment.

"Which side do you lean towards?"

Fatal problem.

Xu Chen didn't know which side the ordinary disciples would choose, but it should be reasonable for them to choose either side. He said, "The rumor must be false. He only cheated on the techniques. In other aspects, he sounds like a good person."

"It's hard to imagine that such a person would have multiple relationships and be killed by one of them."

After he said this, he saw a smile on Xia Rushuang's calm face.

There was a hint of sarcasm in that smile, and it was obvious that she thought he was making excuses for herself.

"I think so too."

Xia Rushuang stared at Xu Chen's handsome face with her cherry-red eyes and said, "So I'm waiting for him."

"Wait for him?"

Xu Chen repeated Xia Rushuang's words, showing the surprise that an ordinary disciple would have.

Looking at Xu Chen's surprised expression, a complex emotion flashed across Xia Rushuang's eyes.

He was very good at acting back then.

The same is true now.

Three hundred years later, the memory will not fade away, but will be hidden in the deepest part of the heart, causing a dull pain.

"Wait until he comes back."

Xia Rushuang turned to look at the tombstone, as if speaking to Xu Chen from three hundred years ago: "I don't believe those rumors, I only believe what he said himself."

Xu Chen was silent.

He wondered if revealing his identity would be the right decision.

The moment this thought came to his mind, he felt a little scared.

calm down!

Xu Chen forced himself to calm down, he found that he almost fell into the trap.

If I really believed Xia Rushuang's words and frankly admitted my identity, I would probably be beheaded in the next second.

Maybe he wouldn't be killed if he revealed his identity, but...

Does he dare to gamble?

This is a bet of life and death, and Xu Chen would never put himself on the gambling table as a chip so easily.

Not to mention that the probability of being killed is greater than the probability of surviving.

"That person is so lucky to have such trust from Master..."

Xu Chen sighed on the side, with an expression that said, "I wish I could gain such trust from my master in the future."

"Let's go."

Xia Rushuang was sure that she would not get anything more from Xu Chen, so she decided to leave.

This tombstone was erected during this period just to test Xu Chen.

Unexpectedly, Xu Chen could remain calm in front of this tombstone.

It seems that even though he has lost his strength, his mentality is still the same as before.

She was in no hurry.

This time she won't let Xu Chen escape again.

As long as Xu Chen couldn't escape, she would have plenty of time to find out his true identity.

"it is good."

Xu Chen responded and stepped on the sword this time.

It was indeed a test.

After he stepped onto the giant sword, he complained in his heart.

Xia Rushuang stepped on the flying sword and walked in the air as if it were flat ground.

"How's your sword-drawing slashing skills going?"

The sound of the wind in your ears brings messages.

“I still can’t get the hang of it.”

Xu Chen smiled bitterly. If he could learn something, he would probably be questioned by Xia Rushuang.

How can you teach people like that?

"Are you confident about the sect competition in two days?"

Passing over the topic of drawing the sword and slashing, Xia Rushuang focused her attention on the sect competition two days later.

"I will definitely not bring disgrace to my master."

Of course Xu Chen would not pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger in front of Xia Rushuang. That would be a very stupid thing to do.

Xia Rushuang could probably tell his current condition with just one glance.

Of course, it is also possible that he has no spiritual energy now, and Xia Rushuang cannot fully know his strength.

Still the same problem.

Xu Chen didn't dare to gamble.

He is not a gambler and he will not take risks unless he is absolutely sure.

Xia Rushuang didn't reply and took Xu Chen back to the main peak.

"I am leaving."

After she said this, she left.

No one knew where she went.

Should I rest in my room, practice, or go down the mountain to do some work...

Anything is possible.
