"Not really."
Xiang Sheng replied softly, lowering his head to avoid Lu Yushan's gaze, his eyes slightly dim.
After Guanghe died, Lu Yushan appeared immediately, and the timing was just right, which was enough to prove that Lu Yushan had been walking in the dark and watching.
She originally thought that Guanghe was being used by Lu Yushan, but after hearing what Lu Yushan said, she immediately realized that her guess was wrong.
If it's not Lu Yushan, then it's...
The scene he had spied on in Miaoyuan Pavilion flashed through Xiang Sheng's mind, and his heart was filled with ripples.
It’s him, Lu Xuanji.
During the meeting with Yan Zhen, Guang He was clearly in the driver's seat, while Lu Xuanji sat silently on the sidelines. His status in the Pantheon should be below Guang He's.
When Guang He attacked, Lu Xuanji was not with him, he was alone. He probably wanted to capture her and Li Xiaoliu and take all the credit.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that he had already fallen into Lu Xuanji's calculations and became a chess piece to test the waters.
Lu Yushan is also a chess piece, but he is much more sober and smarter than Guanghe.
If it weren't for the variable Dong Jinghuan, he would have caught Li Xiaoliu and left long ago without wasting any time.
However, even if Dong Jinghuan did not show up, she would try to replace Li Xiaoliu with herself and escape from the sight of Wanmai Sword Sect.
These speculations may seem long, but in fact Xiang Sheng completed the speculation in the instant of lowering her head, leaving only a little doubt in her heart.
Lu Xuanji knew that they had special identities. The third senior brother Yao Ziyi was lured away from home, which was most likely not Guanghe's doing, but he was manipulating it behind the scenes.
Guanghe was a test, a tool to consume Li Xiaoliu's trump card. What was the purpose of Lu Yushan being called by him?
Was it, as Lu Yushan said, a test? But what was there to test between her and Li Xiaoliu?
Unless she can see through her disguise.
But even Palace Master Xuan couldn't see through him, so how could he, Lu Xuanji, do so?
Xiang Sheng's eyes were slightly cold.
This familiar feeling of confusion made her recall the past event in Dongzhou when she was almost killed by Lu Xuanji using incense.
Although she didn't know whether Lu Xuanji really saw through her identity, she would not make the same mistake again.
It is impolite to come without giving anything in return.
Lu Xuanji had caused her so much trouble. Wouldn't it be impolite if she let him live too comfortably?
Xiang Sheng's expression was cold and gloomy. He collected his thoughts, pulled Lu Yushan's sleeve, raised his head, stared at Lu Yushan with his eyes, and said pleadingly:
"Brother Lu, where is the red fruit tree? Would you take me there to pick some red fruit?"
When Lu Yushan was called like this, his mind was a little dazed, and he even had the illusion that he was really the other party's senior brother.
He showed helplessness, but his smile was gentle, with a hint of doting: "You can't go to that place. Senior Brother can find you some other spiritual fruits to help you practice."
"I won't! I'm going."
Xiang Sheng let go of his hand, tilted his head and snorted: "Brother Lu, if you don't take me with you, I won't tell you the whereabouts of Qin Tianyan."
As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on Lu Yushan's face disappeared instantly. He suddenly stood up, grabbed Xiang Sheng's shoulders, and stared at her fiercely.
"You know?"
Xiang Sheng glared back at him without any hesitation, "If you don't take me to the secret realm of the medicine garden, I won't say a word, even if I die!"
Lu Yushan heard the firmness in her tone, subconsciously loosened his hands, and his expression changed.
After a moment of silence, he regained his composure and asked in a deep voice, "Why do you have to go to the Medicine Garden Secret Realm? If you want to save your senior brother, there's no need. With your senior brother's abilities, the Pantheon will definitely not be able to do anything to him."
"Brother Lu, you're wrong. Third Brother is blessed by fate. I'm not worried at all."
Xiang Sheng smiled faintly: "What I want... is that entire red fruit tree!"
"impossible."
Lu Yushan's face turned pale. "That red fruit tree didn't come from the secret realm of the medicine garden. It was specially transplanted by the Pantheon. If we take that tree, you and I will be hunted down by the Pantheon."
"Then why don't we just not let them know that we took it? Besides, that Pantheon guy is not only plotting against us, but also against you, Brother. Don't you feel uncomfortable at all?"
Xiang Sheng looked at Lu Yushan and said with disappointment, "Brother Lu, you don't even have this little ability, do you?"
Lu Yushan was suddenly choked with anger and was speechless.
He looked at the little girl in front of him. It was clearly the same face, but in his eyes, it became somewhat hateful.
At such a young age, she is so bold and unafraid of the Pantheon. She even wants to retaliate. Should we say that she is worthy of being a disciple trained by the Wanmai Sword Sect?
Thinking this way, Lu Yushan carefully chewed on Xiang Sheng's words and strangely felt that there was some truth to them. Lu Xuanji was truly a wicked person. If he could really make him lose face, it would be quite a pleasure.
At the same time, he could gain the little girl's recognition and learn the whereabouts of Qin Tianyan, killing two birds with one stone.
Various thoughts raced through his mind, but Lu Yushan quickly regained his composure on the surface. He said slowly, "Provocation won't work on me. If the Pantheon is so easy to fool, then wouldn't it be a false reputation?"
When Xiang Sheng heard this, he knew that he was moved and couldn't help but laugh.
She quietly pried open the power of deceiving the heavens, reached out to touch the storage ring, and took out an ordinary spirit tortoise shell. However, under the operation of the power of deceiving the heavens, it appeared to others as a magical treasure called Xuanjia.
When Lu Yushan saw this, his expression changed instantly. "Today's update is a little earlier than yesterday."
