Are You Playing Dumb? Am I the Clown?

As Chen Ning looked at the girl, her gaze also turned to Chen Ning.

In this world, there are very few women who can make Chen Ning lose his composure even briefly. Even the Fairy Yuji of the Snow God Pavilion is known as the most beautiful woman in the Central Province.

Even this could not sway Chen Ning.

But just now, the girl in front of him stunned Chen Ning for a long time.

"Who are you?"

The young girl frowned slightly and asked very seriously.

But now is not the time to answer.

Chen Ning looked away and said, "Where are the fairy's clothes? Let's put them on first."

"The clothes? They've been rotten for a long time."

The girl's gaze froze for a moment, seemingly unaware that there was anything wrong with being so frank at this moment.

"It's rotten?"

Chen Ning was taken aback.

How many years would it take for these clothes to rot?

Could it be that she has been in this Heaven-Burying Ancient Land time?

And he doesn't seem very bright.

With the intention of making good connections, Chen Ning took out a celadon-colored dress from his storage ring and handed it over.

Chen Ning is not a pervert.

The dress she carried with her was a gift from a lady in the palace when she was at the Immortal Music Palace in Qian Province.

These clothes are not only beautiful, but also have wonderful uses for cultivators, as they can nourish the internal Essence Power.

Even though the girl in front of me seemed a little dazed.

But I still fell in love with this beautiful dress at first sight.

It is also decorated with small flowers.

The girl couldn't wait to put it on.

She immediately gained a quiet and charming temperament.

Like the fragrant aroma of tea.

The clothes were on.

But the girl was still barefoot.

As her skirt fluttered down, her ankles were exposed, snow-white and lustrous, a truly pleasing sight.

"Why are you alright? That's strange..."

The girl tilted her head and murmured, seemingly puzzled.

Is something going to happen to me?

Chen Ning was puzzled.

"Everyone who comes here will see many illusions, but you are unaffected. It's strange that you are not affected by me."

The girl's bright eyes were full of doubt. "And how did you manage to find me? You're the first person to have seen me."

"Influenced by you?"

Chen Ning's pupils contracted slightly, and he suddenly asked, "Are you saying that you created all these illusions?"

"Uh-huh."

The girl nodded.

Chen Ning suddenly realized that he had probably encountered something truly extraordinary.

The Heaven-Burying Ancient Land, known as the most forbidden place in the Nine Provinces.

That forbidden zone that inspires fear.

Those illusions that constantly erode one's Dao heart...

So all of this was done by this girl?

The three elders of the Asura Divine Sect each possessed an aura of the Heaven Martial Realm.

Even the Heaven Martial Realm found it extremely difficult to deal with that terrifying illusion, and had to be incredibly careful in their response.

How terrifying must the girl before me possess?

Besides!

What exactly is she?

Using his Divine Power, he discovered that the girl was a human with flesh and blood, just like him; she was not some special being that Chen Ning had originally thought of.

Or perhaps it is some kind of sentience.

She is a real person.

That makes it even stranger.

Are you trapped here? Or suppressed? Or sealed away?

Chen Ning immediately asked three questions.

"Have no idea."

The girl shook her head.

"So... what's your name? And where are you from?"

"I can't remember the name... and nothing else."

The girl seemed to have not spoken for a long time, and always thought carefully before opening her mouth.

Chen Ning couldn't help but give a wry smile.

It's quite embarrassing that we didn't get any clues from them.

Suddenly.

Then, remembering the most important thing about this trip, Chen Ning asked, "Have you seen anyone leave anything here?"

Judging from the length of time the mysterious girl spent here.

He was a perfect guide.

They might know where the First-Generation Sect Master put that token.

Many years ago, an old man came by and left something strange.

"Do you know where that thing is?"

Chen Ning was somewhat excited.

"Know."

The girl's voice remained perfectly still.

"Could you take me to find this item?" Chen Ning asked eagerly.

"No."

The girl shook her head.

Chen Ning was also somewhat disappointed upon hearing this.

Perhaps this involves something serious.

Or perhaps finding this thing is extremely dangerous.

The mysterious girl may also be facing her own difficulties.

That's understandable.

However, the Heaven-Burying Ancient Land is extremely vast.

Although he was not affected by the illusion that eroded his Dao heart.

But finding it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

He could only turn to the mysterious girl for help.

I hope to move the other party with sincerity.

"Fairy, I know that thing might not be easy to get, but please, just tell me where it is, and I can go get it myself. Besides, I will never let you help me for nothing."

Chen Ning continued, "Divine Fruit, Spirit Artifact, martial arts techniques, even Divine Artifact —I can bestow them upon you right now, Fairy, if you so desire."

What... do I want?

A look of confusion appeared in the mysterious girl's beautiful eyes.

"Yes, fairy, just say what you want."

Chen Ning felt that his sincerity tactic might have worked.

"I... I want you to tell me what you just asked me."

"I asked you that?"

"Yes, my name, where do I come from?"

The mysterious girl looked at Chen Ning hopefully.

"If you don't know, how would I know?"

Chen Ning was completely helpless.

The girl's beautiful eyes dimmed, and she returned to her usual calm and serene state.

Chen Ning looked at the girl and felt that she was actually quite pitiful, having spent countless years in this godforsaken place, all alone.

They didn't know their own origins or name.

Chen Ning felt a pang of guilt.

After a long pause, he spoke softly, "How about this? If you can tell me where that thing is, I promise you that once we get out, I will do my best to help you find out about your origins."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The girl looked up, staring intently into Chen Ning's eyes, and said, "Okay!"

Then, she lowered her head and began digging.

Chen Ning looked at her, puzzled.

But she showed no sign of stopping, continuing to dig downwards with both hands.

Not long after.

The girl excitedly handed Chen Ning a roll of something wrapped in yellow cloth.

"This..."

"Right at your feet, you even managed to trick me into making a promise. You were playing dumb, weren't you? The clown is actually me!"

A few black lines appeared on Chen Ning's forehead.

I barely managed to suppress the urge to explode.

But before they could see what was wrapped in the yellow cloth, they heard an old voice coming from not far away.

"We've finally arrived."

Then.

Three figures appeared.

"I knew it! There was a faint but powerful aura present. So it was Sect Leader Chen of the Dragon-Seeking Sect."

The One-Eye old man looked sharply at Chen Ning.

"Oh? He's Chen Ning? The number one young talent?"

The old man in the skull robe clicked his tongue in amazement, craning his neck to examine Chen Ning.

"Sect Leader Chen, our Asura Divine Sect has some matters to attend to. It is not appropriate for unauthorized personnel to linger. Will you stay or depart?"

The healthy old man spoke in a deep voice.

The tone was cold.
