In the end, it seemed as if his eyes could directly penetrate a personâs soul. He stared at Xu Xiaoshou and said, âI can see that you have it.â
Xu Xiaoshou subconsciously touched the teacup, but he quickly stopped himself. He didnât pick it up; he just wanted to clasp it in his hands.
He thought of Kong Yuhenâs words and lowered his eyes, âMy second question, why did you address me asâŚâA guest from another worldâ?â
âWhat do you think?â Kong Yuhen asked.
Xu Xiaoshou snorted and said, âI donât need to tell you what I think. What I want to know is what you think.â
âAn interesting answer.â
Kong Yuhen nodded and said, âMy All Time Forgotten Sorrow Pavilion is in another time and space. You came from the First Hall of Sins, so arenât you a âguest from another worldâ?â
âIs that it?â Xu Xiaoshou didnât believe him.
âThe Abyss Island is outside of the Shengshen Continent.â Kong Yuhen said. âItâs equivalent to being in another space-time. You came from the Shengshen Continent, so arenât you a âguest from another worldâ?â
âThis explanation is also very far-fetched.â Xu Xiaoshou sneered.
Kong Yuhen didnât continue this time. Instead, he muttered to himself for a long time. His eyes flickered slightly before he said, âYouâve come from the Shengshen Continent, and Iâve always been in this world. As weâve just met, arenât you a âguest from another worldâ to me?â
â+(Startled. Passive Points,+) +1â.
Even though he was prepared, Xu Xiaoshou was still frightened by the words of the person in front of him.
This was the first time he had met someone who could see through his very being. When he heard Kong Yuhenâs words, he almost jumped up from the tea table.
However, if he really reacted like that, it would be akin to a confession.
Xu Xiaoshou relaxed his tense body muscles. He held the teacup in his hand and blew on it a few times. He blew on the tea in the teacup but did not drink it. He put it down, shook his head, and laughed.
âFunny.â
âI came from the Tiansang Spirit Palace, and there are traces of my past deeds in the Spirit Palace. You can go and look for it. I am not the âguest from another worldâ you mentioned⌠Xu Xiaoshou wanted to give such an explanation, but he didnât in the end.
An explanation was a cover-up.
He laughed as if he was reminiscing about the joke the person in front of him just told and suppressed the urge to mock him. Then he laughed again.
âHa.â
âDid I see the wrong thing?â Kong Yuhen frowned.
With this, Xu Xiaoshou was instantly sure that the person in front of him didnât have any Mind Reading Technique. It was really possible to deceive him, and he wasnât invincible.
After Kong Yuhen questioned himself, he confirmed it again.
âThatâs impossible. Although I might have forgotten some things, I havenât lost much of my ability. I shouldnât be wrong. Youâre a âguest from another worldâ, right?â His eyes blazed brightly as if he wanted to look into Xu Xiaoshouâs heart through his eyes, and then dig out all his secrets.
âYes,â Xu Xiaoshou looked at him with a smile, as if he confirmed what he said. In the end, he added, âAs long as you think so.â
âTsk tskâŚâ Kong Yuhen rubbed his chin and his expression became rather interesting to watch.
He first picked up the teacup and took a sip. During this time, his eyes never left the person opposite him. Then he put down the teacup, got up and stretched. After a long sigh, he leaned on the edge of the tea table and slowly sat back down.
âFriend, youâre very anxious.â
Kong Yuhen laughed and said meaningfully, âI canât be wrong. The better you hide it, the more it proves thereâs panic in your heart. I have to admit that you hide it very well, am I right?â
Xu Xiaoshou felt like he was on tenterhooks, but he held it in and didnât show it.
âI donât have any ill intentions,â Kong Yuhen reiterated, then he said slowly.
âThere are many visitors from other worlds in the Shengshen Continent.â
âAll kinds of creatures from different extradimensional spaces are the same.â
âI donât think you need to be more nervous and anxious because of this. Youâre just one of the ordinary members in the extraordinary minority group. Youâre not that important.â
He paused for a moment and without giving Xu Xiaoshou a chance to speak, continued and said.
âIâve always treated the All Time Forgotten Snow Pavilion as a place where I could forget my worries. Naturally, Iâve been a little more direct, but I really donât have any ill intentions.â
âWhat I hope for is that every friend who comes here can do the same, look into their conscience and return to their normal state.â
âWhy?â Xu Xiaoshou couldnât help but ask.
âThere are many questions that donât have a reason. If you really want an answerâŚâ Kong Yuen spread his hands. âI donât know either. Iâve said before that Iâve forgotten a lot of things.â
Xu Xiaoshou actually wanted to ask more.
He felt that the person in front of him was probably more knowledgeable than anyone else in the world. At least, since he started his cultivation, this was the only person who could see through his essence.
However, because of this, Xu Xiaoshou couldnât stay in this All Time Forgotten Sorrow Pavilion.
Kong Yuhenâs true intentionsâŚNo, he had a good heart, but after he gave the third explanation to the âguest from another worldâ, Xu Xiaoshou felt that he had not forgotten about it. Instead, he felt even more worried.
âI have a third question.â Xu Xiaoshou said.
âPlease speak.â
âWhen can I leave this place?â Xu Xiaoshou asked without hesitation. This was the question he had wanted to ask for a long time. The fact that he could endure it until now and ask in a normal way showed that the level of his patience was much higher than the level of his pain tolerance.
âAnytime,â Kong Yuhenâs answer was unexpected. He stood up straight and waved his hand at the door. âYou can leave now. My intention was to let people forget their worries, but I donât want people to worry because of me.â
