"What? Is that not the case?"
Yue'er and Xiao Die froze, then could not help looking at each other.
"You said it yourselves just now. A mere two Cultivators at the Tribulation Transcendence Late Stage aren't worth going to all this trouble over. The reason I'm doing this is to deal with the fellow behind them."
"The fellow behind them?"
"That's right. Leaving aside other Supernatural Powers, I still have confidence in my divine sense. By feeling and by reason, I shouldn't be unable to escape the tracking of a cultivator of the same rank. So the one who can keep hold of my trail must be an even more powerful fellow. Those two cultivators out in the open right now are nothing more than pawns sent ahead of the horse."
At this point, Lin Xuan sighed, his voice growing even more solemn. "Although I don't know how he found me, continuing to flee like this won't solve anything at all. That's why I came up with this plan to lure the enemy in. On the surface, it's to deal with those two fellows at the Tribulation Transcendence Late Stage, but the true goal..."
"So that's how it is."
After hearing this, understanding appeared on both women's faces. So the young master had been Xiang Zhuang dancing with his sword, his intent on Duke Pei; his true aim was to draw the snake out of its hole.
A fine scheme, a fine calculation!

After all, that fellow hidden in the shadows was, nine times out of ten, a domain expert. Without using a scheme, trying to win would be harder than climbing ten thousand
