"Is this just a gut feeling?" Shangguan Ning asked rhetorically. "Sometimes, a cultivator's intuition can be incredibly accurate."

"On the other hand," she continued thoughtfully, "it might just be your mind playing tricks. Given your past experiences, it's natural to attract attention within the Everflowing Truth Domain. It's perfectly reasonable for Jiang Chen to take note of you and observe you cautiously. I don't see anything out of the ordinary."

After a brief pause, Shangguan Ning added with a hint of mystery, "However..."

"However, what?" Fang Yuan immediately interjected, his attention sharpened by her hint.
