He Changsheng sighed and said, "Alas, Village Chief, stop pretending. Let's speak frankly."

Since the simulated trajectory showed that the village chief gave in because of his showdown, he naturally wouldn't think about changing anything.

He would not be so naive as to think that he could touch the other person's sympathy with his sincerity.

The other party is thinking about how to escape, unless they are left with no choice.

Chen Li was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused, and asked, "What do you mean?"

He Changsheng said briefly, "Village Chief, you are actually the former leader of the Cangxi Immortal Sect. You brought all the villagers here to hide away from the Dragon King Palace. Am I right?"

He Changsheng's calmness gave Chen Li some time to deal with it.

Then his expression changed drastically, and he grabbed He Changsheng's right hand, and said solemnly: "How do you know all this?"

The House of Words is filled with a coldness that keeps people at a distance.

He Changsheng wasn't surprised by his reaction. He remained composed and smiled calmly, saying, "This isn't exactly a secret. Over the years, the Dragon King Palace has never given up on searching for you, Village Chief. The Cangxi Immortal Sect is a giant in the Immortal Dao, and as the former Sect Master, you're certainly not some unknown individual. It's no surprise that I stumbled upon you."

Whether the other party believes it or not, he has already accepted this reason.

Chen Li's expression suddenly became a little unnatural, but he was not suspicious, because apart from this, he could not think of any other possibility.

He now felt a little regretful. He should not have let the boy leave Xiaohe Village. He should have kept him in the village to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

It's too late to say anything now. Since this kid knows things he shouldn't know, he has no choice, but he still feels inexplicably unhappy.

Do you want to kill the other party?

He was not a bloodthirsty person, so he had to settle for the next best thing.

But then again, this guy must have planned this all along and was thinking about taking advantage of him from the beginning.

Chen Li sneered in his heart and prepared to deliberately make things difficult for the other party, at least not let him succeed so easily.

So he said calmly, "Since you already know our situation, then don't get involved in this mess again. This is not the place for you to stay. Listen to my advice and go back to where you came from. I am doing this for your own good. Otherwise, if you get implicated and lose your life, it would be unjust."

The corner of He Changsheng's mouth twitched. If he hadn't known the other party's thoughts through simulation in advance, he would have almost believed the other party's nonsense.

Want to control him?

Dream on!

He Changsheng's expression darkened, and he sighed, "If that's the case, then I won't cause any trouble for the village chief."

After saying that.

He Changsheng turned around and left without any hesitation.

Chen Li was stunned and stood there in a daze.

Why doesn't this guy play by the rules?

If he stopped the other party at this time, wouldn't it be very embarrassing?

After a moment's silence, Chen Li still chased after him in time. The main reason was that he had to chase after him. He couldn't just let the other party leave. Once their hiding place was revealed, there would be endless troubles.

He Changsheng pretended to be surprised and continued to speak in a murderous tone, "Village Chief, are you trying to get me to leave so that I won't bring trouble to the villagers of Xiaohe Village? Village Chief, you can rest assured that I will keep this matter to myself and won't mention it to anyone."

Chen Li's face froze, then he took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Don't judge others by your own standards, kid. I've watched you grow up, how could I bear to see you wandering around out there? I was just teasing you just now, why did you take it so seriously? I'll make the decision, you can stay."

He Changsheng smiled, but did not expose the other party's shamelessness. Instead, he chose to withdraw while he was ahead and said, "I knew that you, the village chief, would not be so cold-blooded."

Chen Li had a fake smile on his face and asked tentatively, "What on earth have you been through in these years? How did your cultivation level improve so quickly? If I didn't know you well enough, I would have thought you were possessed."

He Changsheng raised his eyebrows and said, "With my talent, isn't this as it should be?"

Chen Li: “…”

He was speechless for a moment. It was an impeccable excuse that he was gifted, but how could he believe it?

The corner of Chen Li's mouth twitched. Looking at the many strange things on He Changsheng, he couldn't help but think of the burglary in his house before. Could it be related to this kid?

He calmly placed his right hand behind his back, then counted with his fingers...

The result was obvious. He had no idea about He Changsheng's secret and he couldn't figure out anything.

After a moment of silence, Chen Li said, "Do you think I'm easy to fool?"

Old Biden!

He Changsheng cursed inwardly and continued to explain, "That might be because I'm different from ordinary people, so I can't be judged by common sense."

Chen Li waved his hand, too lazy to dwell on this issue any further. This kid was not an honest person, and he no longer expected him to tell the truth.

Chen Li confirmed again: "Are you sure you won't leave this time?"

He Changsheng said with a firm face, "There's nothing worth lingering in the outside world. Fighting and vying for power is not what I want. I still yearn for the quiet and peaceful days in Xiaohe Village. Although you often lie to me, they are all white lies. No wonder you are willing to give up your powerful position as the clan leader."

Chen Li's expression finally eased a little. This kid finally said something reasonable.

While the two were talking.

Bai Miaoyin came over after hearing the news. She looked at He Changsheng with a hint of surprise and a hint of imperceptible complexity in her eyes. She completely ignored Chen Li next to her.

Chen Li was left aside, looking at the two people who were deeply in love, it seemed that he had become redundant, right?

Right now.

Chen Li received a critical hit of 10,000 points, and the image of the tigress at home emerged in his mind, causing him to shudder.

Just get out of the way and forget about it!

He Changsheng looked at Bai Miaoyin who was so close to him, and put his arms around her slender waist, feeling the familiar touch.

He sensed the resentment in the other's eyes and forced a smile, "Sister Bai, it's been a long time since we last met. I miss you so much. You've lost weight, you must be homesick. It's all my fault for not coming back in time."

As for women, just coax them and they'll be fine. This method always works.

Bai Miaoyin snorted softly, "Little Changsheng, you are so heartless. Since you know that my sister is suffering from lovesickness, you have been away for so long and didn't even come back to see her."

Another Little Immortal?

He Changsheng secretly called him a demon. He hadn't seen him for a few years and was afraid that he had forgotten how powerful he was.

On the surface, he sighed and said, "I really want to come back, but the village chief doesn't welcome me. It's not easy for me to stay this time."

Anyway, it is enough to push all these things onto Chen Li. What he said is all true. Even if Chen Li knows about it, what can he do?

Besides, this matter was well known in Xiaohe Village and was only kept secret from him.
