Bai Xiaoyao pondered.
Emotionally, she was inclined to believe her Senior Brother’s words.
But her intuition told her that things weren’t so simple.
’It could be just a difference in perspective— Perhaps my Senior Brother really only thought he had done sothing insignificant, but it ant sothing else to others...’
At this mont, she also looked resentfully at the floating eyeball.
Why doesn’t it have the power to read minds now?
And why does it feel like her Senior Brother has such a low probability of being affected by it? The only ti it happened, it was when he just made an inconsequential remark?
Could it be that her Senior Brother is actually controlling the mind-reading ability of this eyeball?
This thought crossed her mind, and Bai Xiaoyao’s gaze towards her Senior Brother beca sowhat doubtful.
If the mind-reading power was indeed under the control of her Senior Brother, and the previous incident of her Senior Brother being read was just an intentional act to make himself appear less suspicious...
’No, no, why am I doubting my Senior Brother like this— Moreover, if it’s my Senior Brother, he would definitely not use such a simple trick.’
Recalling her Senior Brother’s careful actions during these days, Bai Xiaoyao felt that she might be overthinking.
Since that night when she heard her Senior Brother’s analysis of the situation in the Royal City, she increasingly felt that her Senior Brother was hiding sothing deep and unfathomable.
Despite being with her Senior Brother every day, she never knew when he collected so much information about the Royal City, and even had clues about the hidden secrets and various events in the city.
She also found it difficult to imagine who could be the mastermind behind the scenes, playing chess in the Royal City with her Senior Brother.
However, when she thought back to that night, uncontrollably, images of herself wearing the modified female attire, standing in front of her Senior Brother in the black silk stocking he made, flashed through Bai Xiaoyao’s mind.
Her cheeks blushed slightly.
"Well... I should put that clothing and the others in the wardrobe and seal them for now. I shouldn’t... wear them for a while..."
Her inner thoughts ca to a halt.
Because the eye was gazing at her.
On the screen, her unfinished inner thoughts drifted slowly.
In an instant, Bai Xiaoyao’ face blushed crimson, steam seemingly coming out of her ear.
As she looked at the words floating on the screen, Bai Xiaoyao’s head buzzed, and for the first ti after becoming the Demon sect famous "Demoness," she felt a blankness in her mind.
"The others?"
She heard a hint of confusion in her Senior Brother’s voice.
At this mont, she didn’t dare to look at her Senior Brother’s face. She stared at her own toes, her voice barely audible.
"S-Senior... Brother... Xiaoyao suddenly rembered that she still has to cultivate today, so... she’ll take her leave..."
Her voice was very soft, even Luo Wusheng with his Golden Core cultivation found it difficult to hear clearly.
Before her words could even fully land, she hurriedly left. Her steps were slightly chaotic, and despite having the cultivation of Peak Foundation Establishnt, she nearly stumbled at the entrance.
Leaving only Luo Wusheng alone in the hall, he watched the direction in which his Junior Sister had departed, and rubbed his chin.
Did she just self-destruct?
’The clothing ntioned by Bai Xiaoyao should be the one from the night before yesterday? And she ntioned "the others," aning she has other styles? But why seal them away?’
And what’s so special about this matter? Why did his Junior Sister react so strongly? Could it be that there are so inappropriate styles inside?
Luo Wusheng suddenly beca curious about what his Junior Sister’s secret little wardrobe contained.
"Phew~ I finally made it through smoothly."
Although he didn’t know what his Junior Sister had thought of, judging from the extent of her shaken state, it would take so ti for her to recover.
If similar situations arise in the future, would it be effective to bring up his Junior Sister’s hidden wardrobe?
Ahem, he was a righteous Senior Brother and couldn’t do such a thing.
Anyway, since his Junior Sister has also returned to her room, at least the crisis of his image collapse today is completely over.
Feeling that his eyelids no longer had the desire to twitch, Luo Wusheng nodded in satisfaction.
But if his Junior Sister recovers, she will definitely go and probe Little Yuli, right?
Little Yuli would also keep her own death event hidden. In this matter, she and Luo Wusheng were in it together.
Even if the little girl’s own strength is low, she will surely protect what she needs to protect.
Putting this matter aside, Luo Wusheng began to contemplate the true intention behind Yao Ji’s visit today.
’Yesterday, she declined my invitation, but today she appeared again— It’s unlikely that she had planned this from the beginning. But the only event that occurred around that ti was defeating the Rat Netherkin...’
’Is it because of that? What purpose does she have for ? And during our conversation, she seed to have gained sothing else, to the point where completing that purpose didn’t matter anymore?’
What happened back then?
Right, it was after the ti when the maid Xiao Guai almost had her true identity exposed through mind-reading that she suddenly changed her attitude.
Luo Wusheng recalled the question asked by the courtesan before she left.
’She seems to have knowledge about the upcoming chaos in the Royal City. Could she really be the Mortal Alter Ego of the Immortal Nation Empress?’
After so speculation, Luo Wusheng found himself uncertain again.
The identity of this courtesan was truly elusive.
Unable to co to a conclusion, Luo Wusheng turned his attention to today’s greatest contributor.
The small eyeball continued to slowly rotate.
The eye seed uninterested in everything when there was only Luo Wusheng present. Even though Luo Wusheng had contemplated nurous events just now, it couldn’t be enticed to convert those inner thoughts into bullet comnts.
"This is quite a good thing."
A faint smile appeared on Luo Wusheng’s lips.
This eyeball mind reading technique had a frighteningly high probability of triggering soone else’s social death. It was simply brutal.
But the indiscriminate bombardnt and lack of control were sowhat chilling...
His gaze shifted downward.
In the image displayed on the screen, Long Dahai and Gao Shi, who were locked in a small black space, lay on a cubic platform, looking confused.
...
"Long Dahai, when do you think we can get out of here?"
On the white platform, Gao Shi, the Diviner, turned his head to look at Long Dahai, who was lying beside him.
"I don’t know... Maybe we can get out once Brother Luo regains control of this thing..."
Long Dahai’s gaze was sowhat distant.
Why did things turn out like this?
It’s completely different from what he imagined.
He couldn’t quite tell whether his goo friend, Luo Wusheng, did this accidentally or deliberately, bringing the two of them into this world.
It shouldn’t be deliberate, right? After all, he ca to help with good intentions...
But the result was being stuck in this empty world with a grown man.
Gao Shi, on the side, gazed at the dark sky. "Long Dahai, are you really not deceiving ? I always feel that Senior Luo’s gaze earlier didn’t seem welcoming to ..."
"In theory, it shouldn’t happen..."
Long Dahai tried to comfort, but it seed like sothing got stuck in his throat, and he didn’t continue speaking.
To be honest, he also had a faint feeling about it.
