mask?
Xiang Hongyu was confused as he listened, his eyes wandering between Xiang Sheng and Lu Yushan's faces.
He originally thought that Lu Yushan just happened to run into Xiang Sheng and got to know him briefly, but he didn't expect that the relationship between the two was deeper than he imagined.
"Lost it?"
Lu Yushan's eyes showed a thoughtful look. After a moment's silence, he said, "Do you still remember when you lost it?"
"I don't know about that."
Xiang Sheng showed hesitation, as if recalling something for a moment, and said, "Last night, I was about to go to the appointment, but when the time came, I couldn't find the mask. It should have been... 11:30 am at midnight?"
Xiang Hongyu watched the two talking, his eyes coldly sweeping over the Qinji standing at the door, "Is this what you said, you didn't do anything?"
Qin Ji's face turned pale when he heard his master's message.
She only deliberately concealed the fact that she was practicing swordsmanship. She really didn't know how Xiang Sheng got to know the true disciple.
But Fourteen also said that Xiang Sheng occasionally went out to relax, so it was normal for her to run into one or two senior brothers. If Miss Sheng could thus make friends with a true disciple, wouldn't that be a good thing? Why was the master so unhappy?
Qin Ji couldn't understand it. She felt that the young master's behavior had become increasingly strange since Miss Sheng came, which made her feel uneasy.
"Three quarters past midnight..."
Lu Yushan muttered to himself that controlling Fang Cun Ji took up too much of his energy, so he entrusted the assessment entirely to Hei Jue. According to Hei Jue, "Xiang Sheng" arrived at Zhaoshui Pavilion when it was almost midnight, and there was nothing unusual.
Xiang Sheng is just an ordinary person. With a little bit of cultivation, he can easily steal the mask from his room, not to mention that the person pretending to be Gao Heng is not a weak person.
The only thing he couldn't understand was why that man was not satisfied with just stealing Gao Heng's mask but had to steal another one?
Confusing the public?
Lu Yushan raised his eyes and looked at the timid and delicate woman in front of him. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly chuckled: "Or, that person... is you?"
"Who?"
Xiang Sheng frowned, his face filled with confusion. "Senior Brother Lu, what are you talking about?"
"Nothing, just talking to myself."
Lu Yushan withdrew his gaze, and his eyes showed even more interest.
He suddenly asked a question out of the blue, testing everyone. Most people would feel guilty, and no matter how well they pretended, they would have a subconscious nervous reaction for a moment.
But apart from looking confused, this woman's heartbeat, pupils, and even body were all relaxed, without any sign of tension.
If it were her, this little girl, at such a young age, could always anticipate the enemy's actions, to such an extent. Apart from anything else, this mentality alone was enough to be called terrifying.
But if it wasn't her, the person who pretended to be Gao Heng was like a ghost, appearing only for one night and then disappearing no matter how hard he tried. This made him think of someone.
Thinking of this, Lu Yushan patted his folding fan, stood up and said with a smile: "Xiang, Junior Brother, I am sorry for disturbing you by coming here today. I will take my leave now."
Leaving so soon?
Xiang Hongyu didn't care about being surprised, and quickly stood up, clasped his fists and said politely: "Brother, take care, I'll see you off."
"No need."
Lu Yushan strode away, passing Xiang Sheng.
Xiang Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, Lu Yushan's voice echoed in his sea of consciousness again: "That old ghost's blood-refining method of cultivating demons is quite famous. Even if you endure it with your body of cultivation, you will not survive more than a year. If you regret it, you can come to me at any time and join my Tianyan Sect. It may not be a bad thing."
Blood-refined demon?
Xiang Sheng's eyes fixed instantly. Seeing Xiang Hongyu approaching, she quickly lowered her eyes to hide her strange expression. When she raised her eyes again, her innocent look returned. She said, "Brother, Senior Brother Lu said something to me before he left. I didn't understand."
Xiang Hongyu immediately became nervous, "What did he say?"
"It was a long paragraph, and I didn't understand anything."
Xiang Sheng pretended to be trying hard to recall something, "I just remember the seeds and the year. Could it be that Senior Brother Lu is inviting me to farm?"
Lu Yushan walked out of the door and heard these words from afar. He couldn't help laughing, shook his head, waved his sleeves, floated into the air, and disappeared in the sea of clouds in the blink of an eye.
"That guy definitely has bad intentions."
In the hall, Xiang Hongyu warned, "Rong'er, don't have any contact with him again."
Xiang Sheng frowned slightly, "But I see that Senior Brother Lu has a gentle temperament and is not arrogant at all. He is truly a very good person."
"People's hearts are hidden, and how can the naked eye distinguish between good and evil?"
Xiang Hongyu's face turned serious. "I am your relative. How come you don't even listen to your brother?"
"Brother, don't be angry."
Xiang Sheng was so frightened that tears welled up in his eyes. He said timidly, "I'll listen to you."
Xiang Hongyu's expression softened. "Brother is not angry, I'm just worried about you. I was just anxious at the moment and didn't mean to be mean to you."
Xiang Sheng lowered his eyes and hummed softly, without a smile on his face.
Xiang Hongyu seemed helpless, sighed, and said, "Don't look so miserable. I've been busy with work for the past two months since you joined the sect, and I really haven't taken good care of you. I'm sorry that you've been wronged.
I'm back from the main peak this time and have a lot of free time. I can spend some quality time with you. Come to my backyard tomorrow and I'll teach you how to practice. How about that?
Xiang Sheng immediately raised his head, his eyes sparkling, "Really?"
Xiang Hongyu smiled gently and ruffled Xiang Sheng's hair. "Of course it's true. I'll have Xiang Sheng pick you up early tomorrow morning. Have a good rest today, and don't be listless tomorrow morning."
"I understand, brother."
Xiang Sheng's face was full of joy, "Sheng'er knows that you are the best, brother."
Xiang Hongyu's eyes flashed with an unnatural look, and she forced a smile and said, "You girl still have some conscience."
Qinji saw the harmonious scene of the two people inside from outside the door and felt a little relieved.
