Chapter 914 A Sense of Disconnection

His scrutiny was almost undisguised, but upon closer inspection, it didn't seem malicious.

Song Wanning didn't say anything more, she just tossed him a pill, and didn't make any attempt to help him up.

Lin Xiao pouted, somewhat dissatisfied.

He looks very mature, but his pouting gesture seems completely out of place.

It looks very strange.

Song Wanning stared at him for a few more seconds, and then she saw Lin Xiao put the pill into his mouth.

After taking the pill, Lin Xiao's injuries healed very quickly, and he returned to normal in just a quarter of an hour.

He stretched lazily, slowly stood up from the ground, looked carefully at Song Wanning, and smacked his lips.

"Young lady, your skill in making pills is truly extraordinary. May I have a few?"

He casually took out a storage ring and handed it directly to Song Wanning.

Song Wanning took a look and found that it was full of top-grade immortal stones, and the quantity was astonishing, piled up to the size of a small mountain.

This is quite an impressive amount of money.

Song Wanning was somewhat surprised by this person's generosity, and smiled as she put the storage bag away.

"We don't have any more pills, but consider these as payment for the pill you just took!"

A hint of mockery played on her lips, and her self-satisfied expression made Lin Xiao laugh in exasperation.

"Heh, you're quite the businessman. Aren't you afraid I'll kill you and take all the pills back?"

He subtly observed Song Wanning, seemingly pondering the possibility.

Song Wanning wasn't intimidated; she just stared at him and smiled.

"Then you can give it a try!"

Her eyes held a frankness tinged with a hint of arrogance.

Lin Xiao hadn't seen that look in his eyes for a long time.

The curve of his lips deepened, and his mind had changed.

"Since you saved me, young lady, I must repay your kindness. Would you do me the honor of traveling with me for a while?"

His tone was low, and he leaned slightly to the side, looking more languid and less calculating.

Song Wanning knew that the other party must have some plan, but coincidentally, she also had her own thoughts.

They were of the same mind.

"Great! I was just about to ask you for some advice, senior."

She smiled gently, never hiding her uniqueness from beginning to end.

If the other party were truly an intruder, they would have recognized her identity long ago.

Therefore, it's pointless for her to pretend too much; it's better for her to be more authentic.

If he wasn't an intruder, then he must have information about intruders as well.

Many thoughts flashed through Song Wanning's mind, but she didn't show them on her face.

Thus, the two, each with their own ulterior motives, began a period of traveling together.

Lin Xiao didn't seem to have any main goal; he just wandered around aimlessly.

Song Wanning had no specific direction in mind, and the two of them spent some time playing in several cities.

After several days of contact, Song Wanning's doubts deepened.

She always felt that Lin Xiao was a bit strange.

It's just that some behaviors and actions are full of a sense of disconnect.

But to say it was possession doesn't seem like it...

The more Song Wanning came into contact with them, the less certain she became whether they were intruders or not.

Lin Xiao, on the other hand, treated Song Wanning better and better, and they became closer and closer.

They are also becoming increasingly outspoken.

One day, the two were drinking in a tavern in the city when they suddenly overheard some gossip.

"Have you heard? Lin Xiao, the Primordial Ancestor of the Tianyi Sect, stole the Silent Mirror, the sect's most precious treasure, and also injured another ancestor, Wu Yuanzi. Wu Yuanzi is still recovering from his injuries, which are said to be severe!"

"The Tianyi Sect is searching everywhere for this ancestor!"

"Hiss, what's going on? Is there infighting?"

"That's right! I heard it's because of one of Lin Xiao's concubines. They say she had an affair with Wu Yuanzi and got her pregnant!" "After Lin Xiao found out, he not only went to her door and crippled her, but also stole all the sect's treasures!"

"Hiss, is it really worth it for a woman?"

"You don't know, our Patriarch Lin Xiao is quite the romantic. He sent away all his other concubines for his concubine and spent a fortune building a palace for her. He doted on her in every way... but in the end, he was betrayed. Just imagine who could bear that?"

"Tsk tsk, even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman, this is just too much of a waste!"

"that is……"

A group of people sighed, feeling that Lin Xiao had acted too impulsively and ruined his future.

However, the person involved almost bit their gums to pieces when they heard these rumors.

Song Wanning, however, stared at him with an expression of anticipation, as if she were watching a good show.

"Tsk, senior, quickly bring out that silent mirror so I can take a look. I've never seen such a rare treasure before!"

Her tone was full of teasing, even though she knew Lin Xiao was furious, she still added fuel to the fire.

"Snapped--"

Lin Xiao crushed the cups, spilling the immortal wine all over the table.

He glared at Song Wanning.

"That Silent Mirror is a treasure of the Heavenly One Sect, how could I possibly steal it?"

"Some idiot must have framed me!"

He was so angry his hair almost stood on end, his eyes filled with rage and resentment at being wrongly accused.

Song Wanning carefully examined his expression, and it seemed he wasn't lying.

It seems likely that he's been made a scapegoat.

"It must be that Wu Yuanzi. He can't beat me, so he slanders me. Damn it, just wait and see how I deal with him!!"

Lin Xiao started cursing without any regard for his reputation, his face turning red with anger.

Song Wanning found it amusing and asked again, "So it's true that you impulsively did it for a woman?"

"I've heard you're quite the romantic!"

She almost burst out laughing.

Despite having a bunch of concubines, he was still infatuated.

Lin Xiao's face showed a moment of embarrassment.

It would be too embarrassing if word got out that the woman he liked was having an affair with Wu Yuanzi.

But he couldn't swallow his anger and couldn't help but beat Wu Yuanzi up.

As a result, the situation escalated and eventually became what it is today.

"Don't listen to their nonsense. She's just a woman, we'll just play around with her!"

"I don't care!!"

He couldn't sit still any longer and got up to leave in a huff.

Song Wanning followed.

However, when she caught up with Lin Xiao, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

It was clearly the same person, the same aura, yet the other person's eyes suddenly turned extremely cold.

He met Song Wanning's eyes, said nothing, but made her feel a chill run down her spine.

Song Wanning was startled and blinked, but Lin Xiao had already returned to his original emotions.

It was as if everything was an illusion.

Song Wanning frowned.

There's definitely something wrong with Lin Xiao; he's really acting strangely.

It's like... it's like there are two different souls tearing each other apart in the sea of ​​consciousness.

But there was nothing wrong with the other person's aura...

She decided to observe more closely.

……

It's getting cool at night.

Song Wanning was standing by the window, pondering Lin Xiao's performance during the day, when suddenly a peculiar fluctuation came from the next room.

My dears, I haven't been feeling well lately. The doctor said it might be due to overwork and lack of rest, so I might be updating less frequently for the next few days to get some rest. Please understand!
I also hope all of you get plenty of rest, please don't stay up late, and take care of yourselves~
love you~
