Chapter 367: I Saw You in My Previous Life!
“You are the Guest Senior from the Soaring Empire, aren’t you? I’ve wanted to meet you for a long time!”
In the Li Family’s conference hall, Xuan Ge removed her veil and black robe, looking down at Zhou Tong from a high position.
However, Xia Qiu, standing nearby, frowned. It had been a long time since he had seen the Young Master, and he felt that the other’s change was significant.
Especially in appearance, it was as if he had completely transformed into a different person, completely different from his childhood.
“Women really do change dramatically after turning eighteen; it seems to be true!” he muttered to himself.
“Now that you’ve seen me, what do you think?” Zhou Tong asked, meeting her gaze with great calmness.
“You’re nothing special!” Xuan Ge said proudly. “There were always people comparing me to you, but now it seems they were all blind!”
As soon as the words were spoken, the strong warriors of the Profound Sky Hall couldn’t help but tremble.
The one who said this was none other than the Master of the Profound Sky Hall, and she was also the Young Master’s mother.
That’s right, the Master of the Profound Sky Hall turned out to be a woman!
Is this really something they could hear?
However, Xuan Ge paid no heed to the feelings of others, speaking to herself: “Although you are not worthy of comparison with me, you are the only existence among your peers qualified to talk to me.”
“If you weren’t destined to die, I would actually consider taking you as my subordinate!”
“Haha… that just shows I’m the man you can never have!”
As soon as he said this, Xuan Ge’s expression immediately turned cold.
“Have I been too nice to you? Has it made you, a prisoner, so bold?”
“How bold? I think it’s fine. After all, face is something one earns; I think I can be even bolder!”
Zhou Tong laughed, “For example, your name is really hard to listen to, it sounds like a man’s. How about changing it to ‘Wonderful Dance’?”
Everyone present fell silent.
They looked at Zhou Tong as if he were a dead man. Although he was about to die soon, did he not fear suffering inhuman torture before that?
“Wonderful Dance… hehehe…”
Xuan Ge sneered, saying, “It seems that only death can make your mouth shut forever. I will take you to that end right now!”
She held on to the chair and personally pushed Zhou Tong towards the direction of the secret chamber, refusing everyone’s company.
“Should we save him? I can’t shake the feeling that she has some conspiracy!”
Chen Ju, as the uncle, anxiously asked.
“There’s no need to panic; the Venerated One won’t have any problems!”
Yao Hai said decisively, and this confidence puzzled Chen Ju.
He couldn’t understand why this old man would blindly trust his nephew so much.
…
“Are you afraid?”
On the way to the secret chamber, Xuan Ge asked in a gentle tone, unlike an enemy, but more like a close sister.
“What is there to be afraid of? I feel like I won’t die.”
“You are doomed to die. I have already seen that future; you will die at Li Xiang’s hands, and he will die at mine!” Xuan Ge shook her head, attempting to shatter Zhou Tong’s delusions.
“It could have been changed!”
“Sorry, the future I see with my gifted abilities will definitely happen!”
“Then I’ll wait and see.”
Zhou Tong simply closed his eyes as if enjoying the moment.
“You’re putting on an act, but I, the Young Master, still have something to ask you: why did you want to give me that name?”
“Wonderful Dance… it sounds so nice, don’t you like it?”
“It doesn’t matter whether I like it or not; it’s just a code name.”
“Then is this face of yours also a code name?”
As soon as these words were spoken, Xuan Ge suddenly stopped in her tracks, her expression changing for the first time.
“What do you mean?”
“I’ve seen your face!”
“When?”
“A long, long time ago…”
“That’s nothing to worry about; many people have seen this face.”
“I’m talking about the true face beneath your mask!”
With a crack, the floor beneath Xuan Ge suddenly split open, and she gave Zhou Tong an exceedingly cold look.
“What did you see?”
“Hahaha… forgot to tell you, all Disguise Techniques can’t fool my eyes. You were originally a beauty, but alas, you’ve become a thief!”
“Shut up!”
Xuan Ge was clearly angered, but Zhou Tong had no intention of stopping.
“Just now your expression was very vivid; how does it feel to live with a fake face? Since you were born, you probably haven’t had many opportunities to show your true self, right?”
“Did you not hear me telling you to shut up? Everything I do is for the Profound Sky Hall!”
“You’re getting anxious. Clearly a natural Supreme Venerated One, yet unloved by your mother, you can only change your face to infiltrate other forces, living someone else’s life while finding a lofty excuse for yourself. Don’t you feel tired?”
Ignoring the increasingly dark expression on Xuan Ge’s face, Zhou Tong continued, “You killed the candidate Virgin Saint of the Heavenly Fire Sacred Ground and took her place.”
“Yet you don’t know that the one who replaces another will ultimately be replaced too; at this moment, your mother’s affection for her disciple should far surpass yours, right?”
“I don’t care for her!”
Xuan Ge took a deep breath, completely interrupting Zhou Tong’s words.
“Where did you hear all this?”
“Come closer; let me quietly tell you…”
Zhou Tong said with a smile on his face, “Don’t go spreading it around; I saw you in my previous life, and back then, your name was Wonderful Dance!”
