Wrath of the Immortal

Chapter 296: Cunning and shrewd

"Brother Bai, won't you invite me in for a seat?"

The woman outside the door looked at Xiao Chen who had changed his appearance and said with a smile.

"Oh! Please come in..."

Xiao Chen answered subconsciously and regretted it right after he finished speaking.

The woman in front of him was none other than Qin Muxue's cousin Hu Meiyao.

After a hundred years of not seeing each other, Hu Meiyao's cultivation had improved and reached the foundation-building stage.

This woman was not only eccentric, but also good at observing people's words and expressions.

If Hu Meiyao saw the flaw, the next plan would be difficult to carry out.

These thoughts flashed through his mind, and Xiao Chen secretly decided that he must find a reason to drive Hu Meiyao away.

"Brother Bai is in a good mood, are you drinking alone?"

Hu Meiyao walked into the room, glanced at the two broken wine glasses on the ground, and asked with her head tilted.

"Who said I was drinking alone?"

"When Lao Tian and I were drinking, we had a quarrel."

"The old man was so angry that he broke all our glasses."

"..."

Xiao Chen smiled and spoke without leaking a single word.

"So that's it!"

Hu Meiyao stared at Xiao Chen, blinking her charming eyes as if trying to find out a clue.

Soon, Hu Meiyao was disappointed.

Xiao Chen's eyes were calm and there was no flaw at all.

"Hu Daoyou, it's late at night, and it doesn't seem right for a man and a woman to be in the same room!"

Xiao Chen felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Hu Meiyao, and hurriedly changed the subject.

Xiao Chen said these words very tactfully, with the purpose of driving Hu Meiyao away.

"It's really inappropriate, but... oh..."

When Hu Meiyao walked towards Xiao Chen, her foot twisted and her delicate body staggered.

During the stagger, she lost her balance and rushed directly to Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen reacted quickly. Just as he was about to help Hu Meiyao, he saw a cunning look in the other's eyes.

Even if he was stupid, he knew why Hu Meiyao came. This was to test his identity.

Xiao Chen's face turned cold, and he suddenly took a wrong step and dodged directly.

Poor Hu Meiyao fell directly to the ground and ate the mud.

"Why don't you help me?"

Hu Meiyao stood up, glared at Xiao Chen, and said indignantly.

"Hu Daoyou, how can I take advantage of you at my age?"

Xiao Chen's expression did not change, and his words were more reasonable.

"You..."

Hu Meiyao was so angry that she angrily shook her sleeves and walked quickly to the door.

When she reached the door, Hu Meiyao suddenly stopped, turned around and said.

"Xiao Chen, do you really want your cousin to marry someone you don't love?"

Hu Meiyao stared at Xiao Chen and said word by word.

"Where is Xiao Chen?"

Xiao Chen shouted angrily, and quickly looked around, revealing a look of facing a great enemy.

"Pretend, keep pretending."

"Only Xiao Chen, that fool, would be indifferent to a beautiful woman."

"Bai Dongyang is a well-known old pervert in Qin."

"How could he be indifferent when I threw myself into his arms?"

"..."

While Hu Meiyao was speaking, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

This smile was very strange, as if she had seen through Xiao Chen's identity with her fiery eyes.

Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Bai Dongyang was really an old pervert?

No, Hu Meiyao must have lied to him by saying this.

In Bai Dongyang's memory, he only married one woman, and she was a typical henpecked husband.

"Hu Meiyao, stop slandering me. Do you believe I will report you to the Emperor of Qin?"

Xiao Chen clenched his fists, glared at him, and veins on his forehead bulged.

Seeing this scene, Hu Meiyao was a little confused. Did she guess wrong?

Is this guy really Bai Dongyang, not Xiao Chen pretending to be him?

If so, it would be hard to understand.

Why did Bai Dongyang mention Xiao Chen's name when he was arguing with Tian Guohui?

Also, although the person in front of him looked like Bai Dongyang, why did he always feel that the owner of the body was Xiao Chen?

Countless doubts emerged in Hu Meiyao's mind.

She couldn't be sure whether Xiao Chen had come, or whether he had disguised himself as Bai Dongyang.

Just when Hu Meiyao wanted to continue testing, Xiao Chen's next words made her give up the idea.

"Everyone in Qin knows that I only love one person in my life!"

"If you talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being rude."

"Send you away!"

"..."

Xiao Chen said angrily, turned around, and turned his back to Hu Meiyao.

"Friend Bai, I was abrupt, please forgive me."

Hu Meiyao stared at Xiao Chen's back, hesitated for a moment, apologized and left.

She felt that the person in front of her was not Xiao Chen.

Because, with Xiao Chen's character, he would not leave his back to others.

Xiao Chen quickly closed the door, leaned against the door, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The battle of wits and courage just now was extremely dangerous.

As long as he was not careful, his identity might be exposed by Hu Meiyao.

If his identity was passed on to the Shang family, the consequences would be disastrous.

Not to mention implementing the plan, obtaining the big tripod, and taking Qin Muxue away.

Tonight, whether he can leave Shangjun Mountain alive is still unknown.

Xiao Chen took a deep breath, suppressed his inner emotions, and slowly opened the door.

At this moment, Xiao Chen decided to take the initiative.

See Qin Muxue first, and then make the next plan.

With a creak, the door opened.

Outside the door, stood an old acquaintance, smiling coldly at him.

"Where is Xiao Chen?"

Yu Wenming's murderous aura surged, and he asked Xiao Chen coldly.

"I also want to know where Xiao Chen is? Remember to tell me if you find him."

Xiao Chen clenched his fists and looked furious.

"Why did you mention Xiao Chen's name when you were arguing with Tian Guohui?"

When Yu Wenming spoke, his right hand was already on the storage bag.

The dead soldiers behind him were also ready to fight.

As long as Yu Wenming gives the order, he will attack.

Not long ago, when Yu Wenming was on alert, his eyelids twitched a bit.

He always felt that something big was going to happen tonight.

Yu Wenming came to the foot of the mountain and looked for the area where the murderous aura had been sensed.

After careful observation, I found a drop of blood.

Although the blood is dried, one can clearly feel a trace of the owner's breath.

Yu Wenming suddenly thought that what Bai Dongyang said confirmed one thing.

Xiao Chen came, killed Tian Guohui, turned into his appearance, and went up the mountain.

That's why Yu Wenming came here to find Tian Guohui to find out the reason.

"Yu Wenming, you are so brave. Do you want to interrogate me?"

Xiao Chen thought of Bai Dongyang's identity, imitated the other person's tone, and shouted angrily.

"Master Marquis, please calm down, my subordinates are just doing things impartially."

"If the Marquis can explain it clearly, it will be good for you and me."

"If you can't explain the reason, you won't be able to leave this room safely."

"..."

Yu Wenming's voice was not loud, and every word was filled with threats.

After saying that, he waved his sleeves, and the dead soldiers came forward and surrounded Xiao Chen.

"Okay! I want to see what you can do to me?"

Xiao Chen roared angrily, patted the storage bag on his waist, and pulled out a butcher's knife.

The appearance of this pig-killing knife is as if it was made from the same mold as the one used by Bai Qichao.

Seeing this magic weapon, Yu Wenming's attitude softened significantly.

He has determined that there is no problem with the other party's identity.

Only disciples of the Bai family can sacrifice and use the pig-killing knife.

"Master Hou, please calm down. The wedding is coming soon. If the merchant loses face, Mr. Shang will blame him..."

Yu Wenming was very smart. When he spoke, he deliberately did not finish his words.

He knew very well that as long as the banner of Lord Shang was mentioned, no one in the Qin State would dare not give him face.

Even the king of Qin had to weigh his words carefully when facing Lord Shang.

"I'll give Mr. Shang some face and won't argue with you."

"Didn't you ask me why I called Xiao Chen's name to Tian Guohui?"

"I discovered that Old Man Tian has Xiao Chen's aura on his body."

"So I suspect that Xiao Chen killed him and disguised himself as Tian Guohui."

"..."

Xiao Chen looked at Yu Wenming and analyzed in a tight and orderly manner.

"So you asked Tian Guohui to come over and have a nice drink, right?"

"Xiao Chen! Xiao Chen, do you really think I'm a fool?"

"Everyone, listen to the order and kill Xiao Chen."

"..."

Yu Wenming sneered, immediately took out his magic weapon and attacked Xiao Chen.
