The man in black, also known as Yue Wuyan, was now beginning to doubt where his deductions had gone wrong.
She didn't come here to find the Celestial Master's tomb?
still,
After seeing her, her thoughts changed, and she switched to a different plan.
It's no wonder Yue Wuyan had such a guess; the matter of the Celestial Master had driven countless people crazy.
He also didn't believe anyone would be uninterested in the tomb of the Celestial Master.
Yue Wuyan was still wondering about Lin Zao's true purpose.
But little did he know that Lin Zao had traveled from the modern world and came from the same place as the Celestial Master.
Lin Zao was eager to stay far away from the Celestial Master; if her identity were discovered, she would likely face endless trouble.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Lin Zao always felt that there was an invisible thread pulling her closer and closer to the Celestial Master.
From their shared origins to the sacred artifact left by their mother, to the crystal core on Tianniu Mountain, to the treasure map, they gradually drew closer.
Lin Zao had already returned to his room, while the dancer was still fast asleep.
Recalling the conversation between Li Zheng and the butler, Lin Zao looked at the dancer with a deep gaze.
In fact, from the moment the dancer entered the room, she could tell that the dancer hadn't tested her as Li Zheng had claimed.
She let the dancer in because the dancer seemed to have no ulterior motives. She was just thinking that if she refused, the dancer would probably be dealt with by Li Zheng.
Since the person was implicated because of her, Lin Zao couldn't bear to see a vibrant life end like that, and out of a moment of pity, she let the person live.
Fortunately, the dancer was quite shrewd and did not approach her without permission, nor did she realize that the dancer wanted to find out anything from her.
Judging from Li Zheng's words, the dancer's lover was probably being controlled by Li Zheng and his group to coerce her into doing things.
Lin Zao thought about it carefully and concluded that Li Zheng and the others probably didn't know her true identity, or even that she was a woman.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have acted this way; she was probably taken into custody as soon as she appeared.
If that's the case, then what is it about her current disguised identity that they value so much?
Lin Zao had a sudden inspiration and remembered something: the robber she had shot with a hidden arrow when she saved Li Zheng's son.
She hadn't had time to retract the arrow she had shot. Could their target be her hidden arrow?
Remembering that she knocked out two robbers back then, could it be that those two robbers witnessed her using a hidden blade to kill someone and told Li Zheng?
The more Lin Zao thought about it, the more convinced she became that Li Zheng and the steward's purpose was to use a hidden arrow.
Looking back now, I realize that when I met the steward at the inn, he did glance at my sleeve a few times, intentionally or unintentionally.
She usually keeps the hidden arrows in her spatial storage, only taking them out when needed, using the cuffs of her sleeves as a cover.
That's why the butler lured her here by using the treasure map as a pretext after he found nothing.
Now they've even come up with a honey trap to lure her into revealing the secret of the hidden arrow.
After figuring all this out, Lin Zao was no longer so worried.
Forget about the hidden blade; Lin Zao, however, was quite interested in the important thing they were talking about.
Judging from the serious expressions on Li Zheng's and the butler's faces, it was clear that this was no ordinary matter.
She needs to find an opportunity to get her hands on that thing.
