Unable to directly inquire the three Gu sisters, Luo Yang had no choice but to resort to beating around the bush.
Just after he spoke, the three Gu sisters appeared very anxious.
"Hey! That’s our Ten Thousand Souls Sect’s heirloom, how could you sell it?" Gu Xuejiao said angrily.
"Well, forget it. I thought it was useless. Is this Luminous Pearl very useful?" Luo Yang asked.
With a little maneuvering, he could discern the thoughts of the three Gu sisters.
"Hey, the Ten Thousand Souls Sect only has this Luminous Pearl left, you must treasure it." Gu Xue instructed.
"Alright. As long as I’m here, the pearl is safe." Luo Yang declared solemnly.
As they spoke, an idea struck him.
He suddenly slapped his thigh with an "Ah," startling the three Gu sisters.
"Hey! What’s wrong?"
"I rembered! Soone might be following ! Sister Xue, Sister Xiang, Sister Yun, I need to go out for a while and find a safe place to hide this Luminous Pearl. If soone steals or snatches it, I’ll owe you all."
While speaking, Luo Yang prepared to leave.
Gu Xue sneered, "Hey! Don’t think I’m joking, you absolutely cannot sell this pearl. Are you trying to sneak away again?"
A small trick was seen through by them, Luo Yang laughed awkwardly.
The Sect Master of Ten Thousand Souls Sect’s inauguration ceremony was about to be completed.
Luo Yang had long seen that once the ceremony was over, he would face greater trouble.
If not fleeing now, then when?
Unexpectedly, they were guarding against Luo Yang in every way, unwilling to let him go easily.
"Sister Xue, Sister Xiang, Sister Yun, such a valuable item should be hidden quickly." Luo Yang said earnestly.
"Hey! Who would co steal here?" Gu Xue said disdainfully.
Seeing he couldn’t fool them, Luo Yang foolishly smiled.
"Hey, don’t treat us like three-year-old children!" Gu Xue urged.
Just then, a "knock knock knock" sound ca from outside the door.
Luo Yang was overjoyed, almost laughed out loud.
Earlier, he asked Qin Piao to go downstairs alone, agreeing that if the call failed, she would co up in a few minutes.
It seed now Qin Piao had arrived.
In the middle of the night, even hotel staff wouldn’t co knocking at such a ti.
The three Gu sisters had always been cautious.
Upon hearing the knock, they suddenly beca vigilant, looking at each other.
Unable to converse, Luo Yang gestured.
He signaled to the three Gu sisters with sign language, suggesting they remain silent while he checked who was at the door.
With soone knocking at such a late hour, the three Gu sisters were quite curious too.
Thus, Gu Xiang and Gu Yun stealthily prepared, ready for combat at any instant.
Gu Xue also assigned tasks to her two younger sisters, taking the advantageous position in the room first.
After securing the Soul Bead, Luo Yang tiptoed to stand behind the door.
"Who is it?"
"Niu Zai, it’s ."
Qin Piao’s voice ca from outside.
Luo Yang opened the door and saw Qin Piao looking normal. He quickly winked at her, indicating she should pretend to be frightened.
Fortunately, Qin Piao wasn’t dull; with a charming smile, she imdiately showed the expression Luo Yang needed.
"Niu Zai, I’m so scared!"
"Sister Piao, don’t be afraid!"
Qin Piao said tremblingly.
By this ti, the three Gu sisters had co to the door too.
"Hey, co in and talk."
Talking at the door was inconvenient, Gu Xue called out.
Luo Yang wanted to finish talking at the door, then take Qin Piao downstairs.
Upon hearing Gu Xue’s suggestion, he had no choice but to let Qin Piao inside the room.
"Sister Piao, what’s wrong?" Luo Yang asked.
"I was about to return, waiting for a cab by the roadside. Then I realized soone was following , I got scared and ran back!" Qin Piao repeated what Luo Yang instructed her earlier.
At this mont, Qin Piao seed truly frightened, her delicate body slightly trembling.
Luo Yang consoled, "Sister Piao, don’t be afraid. I’ll figure out what’s going on."
Saying so, he glanced around.
Seeing the three Gu sisters looking at each other, Luo Yang continued, "Sister Xue, Sister Xiang, Sister Yun, I’ll go outside for a walk. You stay here and wait for , don’t co out."
The words gave the three Gu sisters the impression they were helpless beauties.
In fact, they were genuine practitioners.
"Hey, as long as we don’t go out, that’s fine." Gu Xue said.
"If soone is really following us, it must be investigated thoroughly."
Luo Yang insisted.
