章節 84: Chapter 85: Luo Wusheng Feels He Can Still Salvage the Situation
"Phew, I almost got exposed by Xiao Guai— Although I didn't achieve my goal today, I obtained more valuable information, the Demon Sect Holy Saint— Wait, wait a minute! This feeling—"
As Luo Wusheng slightly frowned while looking at the barrage floating on the screen, he turned his gaze towards the door.
But Yao Ji and the maid Xiao Guai were no longer there.
It seemed that when they noticed the mind-reading eyeball looking in their direction, the two of them briefly hesitated before leaving at a rapid pace.
Luo Wusheng pondered, but then another barrage appeared on the screen.
"Hmph, I knew that woman wasn't ordinary. She's definitely not just an ordinary mortal woman. I wonder what her original purpose was today and what valuable information she obtained from Senior Brother— Huh?"
The gazes from three different directions startled Bai Xiaoyao out of her contemplation, especially the gaze from a certain floating eyeball, which made her scalp tingle.
Fortunately, she was only analyzing the situation normally.
Seeing her inner thoughts on the screen, Bai Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief.
To ease the awkwardness, she looked at her Senior Brother and asked, "Senior Brother, how do you see this matter?"
What else can he see? The only thing that he got from this is that the possibility that Yao Ji is the Mortal Alter Ego of the Immortal Nation Empress has increased a bit.
After confirming that he hadn't been targeted by the eyeball, Luo Wusheng secretly thought to himself.
After a moment of contemplation, he gently shook his head.
"I knew from the beginning that the identity of Miss Yao Ji was not ordinary, and I had some speculations."
After Yao Ji left, Luo Wusheng knew that the opportunity to salvage his reputation had come.
"Do you remember when we first went to the Red Blossom Pavilion? I told you that I was going to uncover the trail of a mastermind in the Royal City."
"That day, although I failed, I sensed something unusual about Miss Yao Ji— I believe you could also sense it. Her extraordinary skill in playing the Guqin is just one aspect of it. She also possesses a unique aura."
At this point, seeing that the eyeball on the screen remained still, Luo Wusheng continued with relief, "That's why I invited her to perform at the opening ceremony of the Demon Artifact Pavillion, to see where her peculiarity originates from."
"But I didn't expect that after she rejected the invitation I gave to Long Dahai, she would still come quietly..."
Luo Wusheng's mind went blank, but he maintained a serious and thoughtful appearance.
Listening to her Senior Brother's words, Bai Xiaoyao's eyes flickered.
She actually agreed with her Senior Brother's statement, but she couldn't help but feel that something was amiss.
"So, Senior Brother, do you really plan to secretly meet with that courtesan at the Red Blossom Pavilion?"
Bai Xiaoyao's emotionless question made the Demon Sect Holy Saint's heart skip a beat.
"Of course not," Luo Wusheng smiled mysteriously. "Since Miss Yao Ji specifically mentioned it, she doesn't want me to seek her out to understand her intentions today."
"If there were truly important matters that could only be discussed in private, even if she no longer insisted, I shouldn't let you know that I can still go to the Red Blossom Pavilion for a private meeting to learn about it. If it's a secret matter, why would I make you pay attention to it?"
"Once she obtains that so-called more useful information, her original purpose becomes meaningless to her, right?"
Little Yuli, standing by, listened with a puzzled expression.
There are actually so many implications in that sentence?
Speaking of which, this annoying bully does indeed behave completely differently in front of his Junior Sister compared to when he communicated with herself. He has been maintaining that wise and dependable elder brother's demeanor, which is different from his usual behavior of only bullying herself.
Lu Yuliu secretly sneered, then seemed to remember something and glanced at the slowly rotating eyeball on the screen.
Fortunately, they were not staring at her...
She breathed a sigh of relief.
On the other side, Bai Xiaoyao furrowed her brows slightly.
For some reason, although what her Senior Brother said should have convinced her, she still had some doubts.
Is it because too many things happened today?
Upon careful consideration, first, she inexplicably saw a friend from the Sword Sect near her Senior Brother, who was currently having a transaction with herself. And this friend from the Sword Sect seemed to be acting strangely, as if something had happened between him and her Senior Brother.
Then she met that courtesan from the Red Blossom Pavilion, who also appeared to be familiar with her Senior Brother...
Moreover, her Senior Brother's behavior during this period of time has been quite suspicious.
Especially when those two innocent cultivators arrived.
Although her Senior Brother appeared to have accidentally lost control of the newly acquired eyeball, Bai Xiaoyao felt that things weren't that simple.
Her Senior Brother must be hiding something from her.
"By the way, what did my Senior Brother mean by that inexplicable thought he transmitted just now? And who was he saying it to? I always feel like that sentence doesn't match my impression of him—"
While Bai Xiaoyao was contemplating, she suddenly felt something wash over her.
She saw her last thought appearing on the screen in the form of a barrage.
Wait a minute, wasn't she constantly paying attention to that eyeball? Wasn't it not looking at her?
However, she saw that the eyeball, which was originally facing away from her, seemed to shed its disguise, and a pair of sharp and spirited pupils slowly appeared, directly looking at her.
Bai Xiaoyao fell silent.
Luo Wusheng was somewhat surprised.
I didn't expect this eyeball to launch a surprise attack out of a sudden toward Bai Xiaoyao!
And coupled with the ability to read minds, it's really unfair!
And this is just the beginning.
After Bai Xiaoyao's thoughts passed on the screen, a new barrage quickly appeared.
"To think this annoying guy would behave as a dependent man like this, it's unexpected. He would spout nonsense every day when I first met him on the Sea-Crossing Boat— Wait! I-I-I-I wasn't thinking anything!"
Feeling the gaze of the Demon Sect Holy Saint and Maiden shifting towards her— Especially the scrutinizing gaze of the Demon Sect Holy Maiden, Lu Yuliu's complexion turned somewhat unnatural, and her eyes flickered as she turned towards Luo Wusheng.
"Luo— Holy saint, I, I suddenly feel a bit unwell. Can I use one of the guest rooms?"
Little Yuli dropped her little head, her small hands fidgeting.
"Ah, just in the direction you came from, there are many vacant rooms. Miss... Lu, feel free to choose any room."
So the young girl hastily thanked them and hurriedly left after giving a courtesy.
The eyeball boss successfully eliminated another contestant.
But this contestant didn't have much fighting power to begin with.
"Miss Lu?" Bai Xiaoyao looked up at her Senior Brother. "It seems that there is something special about the relationship between Senior Brother and this Junior Sister friend..."
"There is nothing special about it"
Knowing that his Junior Sister would say something like this, Luo Wusheng's expression didn't show much concern. "It's just that I found out she was your friend when we were on the Sea-Crossing Boat, so I took care of her a bit, and we developed a slight friendship."
He smiled again as he said this.
"At that time, I just wanted to see what was special about someone who could become my Junior Sister's friend, so I made a few probes. I didn't expect that she would perceive me as someone who talks nonsense."
It's a reasonable explanation.
Luo Wusheng felt that his image as a trustworthy Senior Brother might be slightly shaken in his Junior Sister's eyes today.
But it shouldn't be to the point of collapsing.
He believed he could salvage the situation.
