Rong Xiu thought for a moment, as if he was considering how to answer the question. However, such a reaction was a very clear answer to Chu Liuyue.

She scoffed. This man has hidden so much from me. However, Big Baby and the rest have long done something similar.

The first time she arrived at Fantasy Divine Palace and saw the Xuan formations on the Star Path, she already knew that some matters weren't within her control. In comparison, she quickly accepted Rong Xiu's identity as Master.

Rong Xiu paused for a moment before saying, "Initially, they didn't know about the matters at Country Yao Chen."

Chu Liuyue's brows moved slightly. This means…

She squinted slightly and focused on the man before her. "Rong Xiu."

"Hm?"

"Why did you suddenly tell me these things at this point?" asked Chu Liuyue softly. Master… If Rong Xiu didn't willingly reveal, I probably would never guess it. Even if all these matters were taken into his grave, it doesn't seem important. However, he still said it, and it had to be at this time.

Rong Xiu smiled. "There are some matters you are bound to know."

In the past, he didn't want to let her know and used all sorts of methods to hide it from her. But now… He had to say it.

Thinking of something, a layer of darkness covered Rong Xiu's eyes.

The sparkling light that shone and dimmed reflected in his eyes silently.

Chu Liuyue could not see through him.

Rong Xiu had deep thoughts. Even though she had the same goals as this man most of the time… When he didn't want to reveal something, nobody could see through his thoughts, including her.

Rong Xiu suddenly asked, "Yue'er, you're not angry?"

Chu Liuyue held her chin with one hand as she fiddled with the chess piece in deep thought. "Why would I be angry? Even though you hid it from me, aren't you already telling me now?"

Actually, she didn't care much about it. That was because she knew that he would never hurt her.

This was an absolute confidence that came from the bottom of her heart, and it was even a belief etched into her bones.

"But when we're done with this game, you have to answer everything honestly."

Rong Xiu's lips curled up at an angle. "Of course."

Chu Liuyue was determined as she finally placed down the chess piece in her hand.

Pak!

Time trickled past.

"These two kids are still not out. Are they waiting until the day the Heaven Gate closes?!"

In the yard, Shangguan Jing stood on the stone stool and was speechless.

He had already waited for so long, but these two people still had their door shut and had no intention of coming out. Other than vaguely detecting the ripples coming from the barrier, there was nothing else.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly stood up. "Forget it! I won't wait anymore!"

I will go to the Fantasy Divine Hall first!

He knew about Dugu Mobao and Lan Xiao being trapped inside.

Previously, he wanted to wait for Chu Liuyue and go together with her, to see if they could work together and find some clues. However, they still didn't come out, and they would probably be busy for a while.

He could not wait any longer.

"Senior Shangguan, are you going to the Fantasy Divine Hall?" A crisp voice suddenly sounded.

Shangguan Jing turned around. "Lady Shiyi? Yeah, what's wrong?"

Lady Shiyi thought for a moment and still shook her head. "My younger sister and I want to go to the Fantasy Divine Hall to take a look, but it might be a little hard."I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

Shangguan Jing was rather curious. "I heard the two of you talking about this previously. What, are you curious about what the inside looks like? Why don't I come back later and tell you about it?"

Lady Shiyi shook her head. "No, it's just…"

They weren't curious; they just wanted to go in. However, such a feeling was not easy to express.

She pressed her lips against each other. "Then, I'll wish you the best of luck."

Shangguan Jing didn't think further and thought that Lady Shiyi and Lady Shi'er were childish, so they wanted to tour the Fantasy Divine Hall.

Not to mention them, who in the entire Fantasy Divine Palace did not want to go in?

It was normal.

The moment he stood up, he heard footsteps coming from behind. "Hey! Shangguan, wait!"

Shangguan Jing's gaze turned, and he saw Tang Ke quickly walking over. Then, the latter passed him a jade bracelet. "This is a Cosmic Bracelet that I recently made. I prepared some items for Li Zi and placed them inside. Could you help me pass it to her?"

Shangguan Jing instinctively took the jade bracelet and glanced at him strangely. "Senior Tang Ke, if you wish to give it to her, can't you just personally go over?"

He is also an Armory Refinement Saint. It's as easy as ABC for him to enter. Why must he ask me for help?

The corner of Tang Ke's eyelids twitched. "Ahem, this… I still have some matters to handle, so… I temporarily can't go in."

Shangguan Jing looked doubtful. Matters? What matters could he have? If it were before, it was understandable since Tang Ke was probably busy guiding me. But now, I have already successfully broken through to become an Armory Refinement Saint. Logically speaking, Tang Ke should be free, right? Besides, everyone can tell how Tang Ke feels about Su Li.

He clearly misses Su Li a lot, but he refuses to enter the Fantasy Divine Hall.

"Senior Tang Ke, is it inconvenient…?" asked Shangguan Jing tentatively.

Tang Ke hurriedly waved his hands. "No, no! I just really can't leave right now! W-wait for a while, and I'll go over!"

Shangguan Jing didn't quite believe his words. However, the other party had already said this, so there was no need to continue asking.

He nodded. "Senior Tang Ke, don't worry. I'll definitely send your item over."

Tang Ke then secretly exhaled and gave a few reminders before he returned.

The door closed.

Shangguan Jing was dazed. It seems like… Tang Ke really has no plans of going now.

He stowed away the bracelet and walked toward the Fantasy Divine Hall.

Shangguan Jing successfully entered the Fantasy Divine Hall and quickly found Su Li's residence.

"He told you to pass it to me?" Su Li played with the bracelet in her hand, her usually gentle expression looking rather sour. "It seems like he's really busy."

Shangguan Jing was speechless. Why is it suddenly so cold?

But luckily, Su Li still kept the item.

She looked up and asked, "How's Little Yue'er now? I haven't seen her for the past few days."

Shangguan Jing briefly told her the situation.

Su Li was enlightened."I see… However, His Grace is also weird. Why did he specifically choose this time to play chess with Little Yue'er?"

Shangguan Jing shook his head. "They both have their own thoughts. Perhaps they have other plans. Besides… Rong Xiu is very strong. When they duel, they can improve their skills."

ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm He was rather familiar with Rong Xiu, so he deeply knew that the abilities the latter had were far from what he currently displayed.

Su Li nodded and continued, "That's true, but Little Yue'er has already completed the Star Path and understood all the Xuan formations on it. Logically speaking, she is already very amazing. In a while, when the Heaven Gate closes, I wonder if she can become a deity…"
