2761: Chapter 2781: Turns out I’m the foolish one!

A figure slowly erged from the darkness, like a ghost hidden in the shadows.

Zuo Dongxu knew he had been exposed and no longer concealed himself.

He floated up from where he was, conjured his Life-bound magical treasure, a blue kettle, and torrents of water burst forth, enveloping him like the surging Great River in an instant.

Zuo Dongxu stared intently at the figure.

When it ca close, a look of astonishnt appeared on his face.

“Lin Xi!”

After his shock, Zuo Dongxu’s expression changed to one of delight, “I’m relieved you’re okay.

I rushed over quickly but couldn’t find you.

I feared you had t with disaster!”

Lin Chen said with a slight smile, “I’m fine, Brother Zuo.

I’m sorry to disappoint you.”

Zuo Dongxu, looking puzzled, asked, “Disappoint?

Lin Xi, why would you say that?”

Lin Chen calmly said with a laugh, “After I left, you killed the surrounding Crystal Scorpions in a flash and followed quickly.

You clearly could have caught up but instead chose to trail slowly behind.

Wasn’t it to wait for the ever-increasing Crystal Scorpions to kill ?

Now that you see alive, isn’t it a surprise?”

Zuo Dongxu, shocked, looked at Lin Chen, “Lin Xi, could you be misunderstanding sothing?”

Lin Chen chuckled, pointed above, and said, “Once I saw you following, I deliberately headed deeper into the abyss to distance myself from Gu Maduo and the ground.

Now that I’ve set up the Barrier, what’s the point in your denying it?”

Zuo Dongxu watched Lin Chen, his smile gradually fading, and a dark gloom took its place.

“When did you realize I bore you ill will?”

Lin Chen said with a laugh, “Unbidden kindness is either treachery or theft.

You seem warm, but are full of envy.

Just getting a bit close to Lan Qiangwei makes you act as if soone had desecrated your ancestors’ graves.”

“Previously, because I deliberately steered clear and you deed non-competitive, you didn’t consider a threat.

But after I saved Lan Qiangwei from the giant Demon Spiders, your perspective on shifted.”

“Actually, it all cos down to my status as a Loose Cultivator; you looked down on , thinking that soone like , if killed, wouldn’t cause any repercussions.

That’s why you prepared to dispose of without hesitation.

If I had had a deep background like Lan Qiangwei, you certainly wouldn’t dare to act this way.”

“I appeared weak, and everyone looked down on , yet you took the initiative to invite and even offered a twenty percent share.

Even Gu Maduo found it unbelievable, so do you think I would consider it normal and be dazzled by the points you offered?”

“You suggested coming here, partly because there are more Crystal Scorpions, but the real motive was because this place is far from the ground, obscured by Demonic Qi.

Even if you fought here, people would assu we were fighting Crystal Scorpions.”

“When we set out, you probed with words, and when you learned I was a Sword Cultivator, you must have breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, it’s well known that while Sword Cultivators are fierce, they lack variety in technique, so if you could overpower in realm, it wouldn’t be complicated to kill completely.”

“In the first battle, you clearly could have stopped them all, but you deliberately let a Crystal Scorpion through to test .

After confirming my strength, you even deliberately waited a Day before suggesting we co here, ready to make a move, thinking you’d get away with it unnoticed.

But, in fact, everyone knows what you’re planning.”

Zuo Dongxu’s face darkened as if covered by water, Lin Chen’s words had struck right at the heart of his intentions, filling him with even more panic.

Since Lin Chen knew everything, yet still dared to co here, what did that tell him?

It ant Lin Chen wasn’t afraid of him and was confident he could handle him!

“Does Gu Maduo know too?”

Lin Chen laughed heartily, “What makes you think Gu Maduo doesn’t know?

I reckon he guessed you wanted to kill the mont you took the initiative to invite to join the team, expressing your ‘gratitude’.”

Zuo Dongxu asked through gritted teeth, “Then why didn’t he say anything?”

Lin Chen replied with a laugh, “Gu Maduo was raised by Yan Beasts, accustod to battle since childhood, this jungle follows the law of ‘survival of the fittest.’ You’re targeting , not him, and I have no connection to him.

Why should he offend you on my behalf?”

“His share isn’t affected, so he would just pretend to be unaware.

The sa would apply if I were the one to return.

He wouldn’t inquire about how you died.

I could tell him you were overwheld by Crystal Scorpions, and he would profess his belief.”

Zuo Dongxu was stunned.

He prided himself on his cleverness, thinking he had covered his tracks perfectly, but now, after listening to Lin Chen, he realized—while he thought everyone else was a fool, he was actually the biggest fool of all.

Why was Lin Chen telling him so much without any hurry?

It was because he was certain Gu Maduo would not follow him down; he would wait above for him to return after the deed was done.

Zuo Dongxu glared fiercely at Lin Chen, “How can you, a Daluo Mysterious Immortal of the Triple Realm, think you can kill ?

Could it be that Black Serpent is yours?”
