Chapter 221 Shocking Secret
"How do you know Yu'er?"
Liu Xunyi and Si Wudao chose a secluded place, facing the bright moon overhead. Their shadows looked particularly lonely under the shade of the trees.
In the distance, Xunzhen did not release Xu Ren. He would wait for Liu Xunyi to have a secret talk with Si Wudao before making a decision.
"Not only that, I also know a lot of secrets." Si Wudao looked at Liu Xunyi with a smile and said in a sarcastic tone, "Especially your secrets."
"What do you mean?"
Hearing this, Liu Xunyi's heart suddenly sank, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but on the surface he still pretended to be calm and asked calmly: "What else do you know about me?"
"Almost... everything." Si Wudao pouted innocently, "After all, you and I have known each other for more than a day or two."
Si Wudao's words were like a thunderbolt, hitting Liu Xunyi on the head with a stick. He was horrified and could no longer pretend to be calm. He asked anxiously, "Who are you? When did you know me? What else do you know about me?"
"A lot of things." Seeing Liu Xunyi's anxiety, Si Wudao deliberately kept her in suspense and smiled mysteriously, "For example... Tianji Pavilion."
"hiss!"
As soon as Si Wudao finished speaking, Liu Xunyi's pupils suddenly shrank, and an indescribable look of horror instantly appeared between his brows.
"you……"
"Don't worry." Si Wudao waved his hand and smiled, "Luo Tianjin is the enemy of Longxiang Mountain. So I will never tell him about your secrets."
After saying that, Si Wudao gave Liu Xunyi a comforting smile. However, in Liu Xunyi's opinion, the kind-looking Si Wudao was more terrifying than the evil ghosts in hell.
At this moment, Liu Xunyi's mind was full of confusion and mixed feelings. The more he tried to sort out everything, the more confused he became. After thinking about it over and over again, his mind had become a complete mess.
Liu Xunyi shook his head desperately, then his eyes became fierce and he said in a deep voice: "If you don't make things clear today, don't even think about leaving!"
"I have explained it very clearly." Si Wudao said with a smile, "It's just that you are not experienced enough and don't understand."
"Have you known me for a long time?" Because Si Wudao's words were too sudden, the unprepared Liu Xunyi was uneasy and at a loss.
At this moment, he had thousands of doubts in his mind, but he didn't know where to start. He could only ask whatever he could think of, and hurriedly asked: "How do you know me? Why do you want to know me? What is your purpose? And when did it start..."
At this point, Liu Xunyi's mind suddenly flashed with a brilliant light, and then his eyes changed, and he suddenly realized: "I know! The last time I was chasing Xu Ren, Xu Ren actually knew that I had just entered the Xianwang Mansion... I was puzzled at the time, but now I think he is in the same group with you... You have been secretly monitoring me, so he knows my whereabouts so well?"
"Yes, Xu Ren is one of the Ten Impermanences of Longxiang Mountain." Si Wudao admitted without hesitation, "Not only that, when Ling Qing was chasing the 'Qin Mo Wu Yao', I appeared in the ruined temple outside Luoyang City, which was not a coincidence."
"I was in Prince Xian's Mansion at that time, so...you appeared near Luoyang City because of me?" Liu Xunyi murmured to himself in disbelief.
"That's right." Si Wudao grinned and said, "In fact, over the years, I have secretly helped you solve a lot of troubles. So, I am your great benefactor, and you should thank me. Haha..."
"You are helping me solve the problem in secret?" Liu Xunyi raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"Back then, when you and Qin Wei were wandering around begging and were about to starve to death on the streets in the cold winter, why did Zhao Yuan suddenly appear in front of you?" Si Wudao's eyes were gleaming with smugness, and he smiled, "In fact, it was I who secretly guided him and made him 'encounter' you on the street. If it weren't for me, I'm afraid you would have frozen to death long ago."
"This..." Liu Xunyi was in a trance, recalling the past scenes intermittently.
At that time, Zhao Yuan was like Guanyin who came down from the sky to save people from suffering. As soon as he appeared, he took the initiative to feel Liu Xunyi's muscles and bones, as if he was well prepared. He said afterwards: "Not bad! Not bad! He is indeed a rare talent! I never thought that in this poor alley, I, Zhao Yuan, would actually meet a martial arts talent with extraordinary muscles and bones. Great! Great!"
"He actually met a martial arts talent... He actually... Could it be that... The Marquis was really guided by someone and went there prepared?"
Liu Xunyi repeatedly pondered over what Zhao Yuan had said and done back then. He was a little confused about it at first, but after hearing Si Wudao's explanation, he suddenly felt a sense of sudden enlightenment.
"you……"
"Don't worry! There is another thing that also benefited the Sa family. I was the one who deliberately leaked the news that Jiang Yiwei sent people to arrest Cheng Qiu to Zhao Yuan!"
Si Wudao looked mysterious and kept it a secret. He said in a gentle and persuasive way, "If it weren't for me, why would Zhao Yuan send people to Zheji Valley to kill Cheng Qiu? Do you think there are such coincidences in the world? Many times, it's not that you, Liu Xunyi, are lucky, but that someone has solved all your troubles for you in secret. And this person is me! Haha... If Cheng Qiu really went to the Xianwang Mansion to confront you, you would die without a burial place. In this case, can I be considered your lifesaver?"
"This……"
"Besides that, I have helped you a lot in secret while you were working for Tianji Pavilion these years. I have even saved your life no less than seven or eight times." Si Wudao changed the subject, pretending to complain, and said with a wry smile, "I have saved you from danger time and time again, but I didn't expect you to want to kill me just now?"
To Liu Xunyi, Si Wudao's words were like listening to a divine book.
Liu Xunyi stared at Si Wudao in disbelief, and asked in a trembling voice: "Who are you? What is the relationship between you and me? Why do you help me in secret so many times?"
"I am one of the four guardians of Longxiang Mountain. I have no relationship with you." Si Wudao said with a smile, "As for why I want to help you? I can't tell you."
"Someone must have instructed you to do this!" Liu Xunyi was meticulous and immediately heard the flaw in Si Wudao's words. He quickly speculated, "There are probably not many people in the world who can order the four guardians of Longxiang Mountain. And the most likely one... is the Holy Lord of Longxiang Mountain, right?" In response to Liu Xunyi's question, Si Wudao just smiled and said nothing. He neither confirmed nor denied it.
"Xu Ren killed Pan Chuba because he was targeting Luo Tianjin. But I appeared in Yingchuan because of you." Si Wudao said with a smile.
"Come for me?" Liu Xunyi asked suspiciously, "Are you here just to tell me these 'stories' that I don't know whether they are true or not?"
"Isn't it worth it?" Si Wudao rubbed his forehead with his hand and smiled bitterly, "I wanted to test your martial arts, but I didn't expect that you almost took my life."
Liu Xunyi could not see any ill will towards him from Si Wudao's eyes, so he relaxed his guard a little.
Liu Xunyi frowned and asked repeatedly in confusion: "I still don't understand why you want to help me? And from what you said... you have been helping me secretly for more than ten years?"
"I guess so!" Si Wudao nodded in response.
Liu Xunyi asked, "But I want to know why the Holy Lord of Longxiang Mountain is interested in a nobody like me? Is there some kind of intricate relationship between him and me?"
"I can't tell you! I can't tell you!" Si Wudao shook his head and evaded the question, "Maybe one day when you meet the Holy Lord, he will tell you everything in person."
Liu Xunyi knew that Si Wudao seemed unruly but was actually very cunning. Therefore, no matter how hard she pressed him, she was afraid that she would not be able to get the truth out of him if he did not want to reveal the secret.
Thinking of this, Liu Xunyi simply put aside all the doubts in his heart, turned his expression and asked seriously: "What about Yu'er? Where is Yu'er?"
"I'll tell you the news about Liu Xunyu, can you let Xu Ren go?" Si Wudao asked back, then he put his hands together, pretending to be compassionate, and said quietly, "Amitabha, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."
Liu Xunyi stared at Si Wudao fiercely, hesitated for a moment, and slowly responded: "In the future, you must never cause trouble for the Pan family again!"
"I have just said that as long as you are willing to fight me one-on-one, no matter who wins or loses, we will not trouble the Pan family in the future." Si Wudao said with a smile, "However, the Pan family after today does not seem to be worth our trouble. Pan Chuba is dead, and the Pan family and the Xianwang Mansion will drift apart in the future. In fact, this is a good thing for the Pan family, at least it can keep them safe!"
Liu Xunyi was startled and asked curiously, "What deep hatred do you have with the Xianwang Mansion? Why are you so aggressive and even... not letting go of the friends of the Xianwang Mansion?"
"This is exactly why I came to you, to let you see Luo Tianjin's true nature. Luo Tianjin appears to be a righteous gentleman, but in fact he is a despicable and shameless snob." Si Wudao sneered, "Now, you haven't really understood him yet. When one day, you see his true face, the truth will surely surprise you! The 'Northern Sage King' who is famous in the martial arts world is so selfish, greedy, and filthy!"
Luo Tianjin usually treated Liu Xunyi well, so when he heard Si Wudao slandering Luo Tianjin, he couldn't help but feel a little indignant, and said, "Do you really understand Lord Luo? I think you are the one who is bewitched and follows the crowd. Don't forget, Longxiang Mountain is a heretic in the martial arts world. When it comes to being despicable and shameless, and doing many evil things, you are the experts."
"Forget it!" Si Wudao waved his hand and smiled, "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, it's just a matter of whether it comes early or late. Luo Tianjin's hypocrisy can deceive people for a while, but it can't deceive people forever. It can deceive one person, but it can't deceive everyone. I won't argue with you today, we will know the answer in the future."
After saying that, Si Wudao pointed at Xu Ren and asked, "What do you think? Will you agree to let him go?"
Liu Xunyi pondered and said, "If you tell me the news about Yu'er, I can let him go, but only today. If I see him again in the future, I will kill him without mercy."
Si Wudao nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "A man who knows the current situation is a hero. Your choice can prevent more innocent people from being killed or injured tonight. Well done! Well done!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Where is Yu'er?" Liu Xunyi asked impatiently, with an unconcealable expectation and excitement in his eyes.
"do not know!"
Liu Xunyi asked anxiously, but Si Wudao's answer was even more straightforward.
Hearing this, Liu Xunyi was stunned at first, and then he became so angry that he wished he could swallow the fat monk in front of him alive.
"Don't be impatient." Facing Liu Xunyi's murderous gaze, Si Wudao smiled awkwardly and waved his hand, saying, "Although I don't know where Liu Xunyu is, I can assert that she is still alive and well in the world."
"Why are you so sure?" Liu Xunyi asked hurriedly.
"Aren't you living a good life?" Si Wudao asked instead of answering, smiling meaningfully, "You can live a good life, and Liu Xunyu can live a good life too."
"What do you mean?" Liu Xunyi was annoyed and extremely angry at this moment.
However, although Liu Xunyi was anxious, he couldn't help but feel a little ecstatic when he saw Si Wudao's confident and solemn look.
"Yu'er and I haven't seen each other for more than ten years. How can I know if she is doing well? And how can I know if you are deliberately teasing me?"
"You can live peacefully until today, and I have contributed a lot." Si Wudao was not angry, but still put on a mysterious and annoying look, and asked, "Why don't you think about it carefully? For so many years, you have been able to escape danger time and time again, why can't your sister... 'good luck comes to those who are lucky'?"
Hearing this, Liu Xunyi was stunned, frowning, and asked thoughtfully: "You mean... the Holy Lord of Longxiang Mountain is not only interested in me? And... he also sent people to protect my sister in secret?"
