Chapter 153 She is not Xu Weilin
Everything happened so suddenly that Xie Wanning had no time to react; she only felt her body falling downwards.
There was no pain as she expected, and she fell into a warm embrace.
Qin Muyang caught her, as if he were carefully holding a feather in his hands.
Xie Wanning looked up and met Qin Muyang's worried yet delighted eyes. She could feel his heart pounding.
Her heart was pounding, and her face felt so hot.
"Are you alright, Miss Xu?" Qin Muyang asked with concern, carefully placing Xie Wanning on the ground.
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Pavilion Master Qin." Xie Wanning lowered her head shyly.
Suddenly, Qin Muyang took a step toward her. Xie Wanning looked up, puzzled, and saw a clear smile on Qin Muyang's lips: "Xu Weilin, you're alright, that's really great."
Xie Wanning didn't know how to explain what happened in the Divine Realm to Qin Muyang. She simply nodded and chuckled, "Yes, I'm back. Nothing dangerous happened, I'm fine."
She didn't know why she said that, but she felt that saying it would make Qin Muyang a little happier.
Qin Muyang took out a clean and tidy veil from his sleeve and handed it to Xie Wanning: "The old rule of the black market, put it on!"
Xie Wanning obediently put it on and followed behind Qin Muyang through the black market to the pavilion master's private chamber.
The two sat in the secret room, and Xie Wanning explained her purpose: "Sect Master Qin, I want to inquire about the whereabouts of the Ten Thousand Year Red Lotus and the Ten Thousand Year Cold Grass, as well as the Grade Eight Ice Crystal Grass, which I also need."
These are all very rare herbs. Once they appear, they will inevitably be fought over by people. Therefore, it is very difficult to obtain information about this kind of herb, and one may even lose their life.
Thinking of this, Xie Wanning took out ten Rank 9 talismans, Rank 9 pills, and ten Rank 9 magic artifacts from her storage bag. She placed them on the table and said to Qin Muyang, "Sect Master Qin, I know my request is excessive, so consider these as payment."
Qin Muyang frowned slightly, shook his head disapprovingly, and firmly refused, saying, "Miss Xu, I promised you that everything in the black market is free."
"No, Pavilion Master Qin, I cannot accept your kindness without a reason." Xie Wanning pushed the things on the table in front of Qin Muyang and said very solemnly, "Pavilion Master Qin, although we are friends, I have no reason to take your things for nothing. This intelligence is too valuable, and I cannot accept it directly."
Qin Muyang suddenly stood up, his whole body trembling.
"Miss Xu, why won't you accept my things? I, Qin Muyang, am a man of my word and will keep my promise." Qin Muyang's voice was somewhat hoarse, tinged with anger.
Xie Wanning was puzzled, so she explained, "Sect Leader Qin, I just don't want to owe you too much."
"Why? Is it because of what you're hiding?" Qin Muyang suddenly took out a broken wooden puppet with the character "Qian" engraved on it. He couldn't bear it and said, "Xu Weilin, what exactly did you do? Did you kill Ye Qianqian once? Did you really come out of the Divine Realm unharmed? Why can't you tell me the reason?"
Xie Wanning was startled when she saw the broken puppet. It was indeed the puppet Xie Wanning had used to impersonate Ye Qianqian; Qin Muyang had probably found it in the Lingxiao Palace.
So, Qin Muyang helped her conceal the puppet incident, and since he can perform divination, the fact that Ye Qianqian had died once couldn't be hidden from him. However, Xie Wanning's true identity cannot be easily revealed.
"As you can see, Pavilion Master Qin, I did indeed kill Ye Qianqian and replaced her with a puppet. Although Ye Qianqian was resurrected as a goddess and dragged me into the Divine Realm to take revenge, I still escaped and was not killed by her." Xie Wanning simply admitted what she had done, but still concealed the fact that she could be resurrected.
However, when she met Qin Muyang's eyes, she saw worry and doubt in them. Qin Muyang sighed softly, picked up the teacup on the table, took two sips, and put it down.
"Xu Weilin, don't you trust me?"
"Sect Master Qin, what makes you say such a thing?" Xie Wanning sat upright, feeling as if venomous snakes were coiling around her body, and she felt a chill. Qin Muyang's eyes were devoid of any smile, like a bottomless well, inspiring fear in those who knew him. This was the feeling she had when she first met Qin Muyang.
"Xu Weilin, I'm being honest with you, and I hope you won't hide too much from me. Only by telling the truth can I truly help you." Qin Muyang tilted his head slightly, his right hand resting on his forehead.
Xie Wanning felt that Qin Muyang was a bit strange. His aura was too intimidating, especially his eyes, which faintly revealed a dangerous glint.
"I'm telling the truth." Xie Wanning decided to take a gamble.
"No," Qin Muyang denied, taking out a copper coin from his pocket and twirling it between his fingers. "Are you sure you came out of the Divine Realm safely without dying?"
"Yes." Xie Wanning was furious and stared directly at Qin Muyang.
"Ding!"
The coin is tossed upwards, lands on its back, and faces up.
The fact that the copper coin was reversed proves that Xie Wanning was lying.
Qin Muyang leaned weakly against the stool and gave a self-deprecating laugh: "Miss Xu, you really didn't tell me the truth."
Xie Wanning bit her lower lip, not wanting to look Qin Muyang in the eye. She didn't like Qin Muyang's skeptical attitude.
She couldn't understand what Qin Muyang, who was usually so easygoing and gentle, was up to, and why he was being so aggressive.
"Qin Muyang, what do you want to know? What exactly is your purpose?" Xie Wanning stood up and asked angrily and suspiciously.
Qin Muyang closed his eyes; he did not answer Xie Wanning's question.
In truth, from the moment he learned that Xu Weilin had been pulled into the Divine Realm, he had lost most of his rationality. He could see the immense hatred Ye Qianqian harbored for Xu Weilin, therefore, Xu Weilin was doomed to die.
However, Xu Weilin was fine; she walked out unharmed.
Qin Muyang recalled the results given by the Heavenly Fate Tower. Why couldn't he be with Xu Weilin? What was Xu Weilin hiding?
When he saw Xu Weilin and Xu Xiaoli appear together, he knew he was an outsider. Xu Xiaoli wasn't Xu Weilin, but he was definitely a puppet. So who was controlling this puppet?
Xu Xiaoli became a disciple of Hundred Herbs Valley, while the puppet could only live in a familiar environment according to the original owner's memories. So what about Xu Xiaoli, and why does he have self-awareness?
When Xu Weilin was being hunted down by the demonic cultivator Wu Ying, how did she, a Golden Core cultivator, escape from Wu Ying's clutches? And news had already spread throughout the demon realm that the demon general Wu Ying had died in the Void Secret Realm. Could it have been Xu Weilin who did it?
He realized that Xu Weilin was hiding many secrets, and what exactly was her purpose in searching for the Chosen One? How did she find out who the Chosen One was?
He hoped that Hsu Wei-lin could tell him the truth and not treat him as an outsider, lest it cause some misunderstandings.
"Xu Weilin, who exactly are you? I haven't found out anything about your past. I'm a businessman, and I've always trusted you unconditionally and kept my promises. But what about you? Have you ever been sincere with me?" Qin Muyang flicked the copper coin in his hand upwards.
Xie Wanning hurriedly grabbed the copper coin to prevent it from falling to the ground.
Qin Muyang grabbed her hand and pried it off.
The coin should be facing down!
She is not Hsu Wei-lin!
