Hun Tiandi's Renewed Probe
In a certain Void surrounding the Fallen Mountain Range, Xiao Lin also joined in the fun.
However, with his current strength as a Nine-Star Dou Saint, no one can detect his presence.
In addition to Xiao Lin, there was another unexpected person watching the match here.
This person was none other than the Hun Tiandi!
Yes, Xiao Lin and the Hun Tiandi were currently standing shoulder to shoulder, hidden behind some Void in the Fallen Mountain Range, watching the upcoming decisive battle between the Heavenly Mansion Alliance and the Soul Hall.
This is simply outrageous!
These two are clearly mortal enemies, yet they can now calmly watch the battle and chat together. Who would have thought?
When the new Hall Master the Soul Hall, Hun Luo, appeared, the Hun Tiandi actually gave Xiao Lin a meaningful look.
However, to the Hun Tiandi's surprise, Xiao Lin was not surprised at all!
This is interesting...
"You seem... not at all surprised by the change of the Hall Master in the Soul Hall?"
The Hun Tiandi tentatively began to speak.
At this moment, in his eyes, Xiao Lin still appeared completely calm and collected.
In fact, the reason why Xiao Lin and Hun Tiandi came to the Fallen Mountain Range to watch the battle together was because the latter extended an invitation to the former.
Yes, Xiao Lin's presence here is due to an invitation from the Hun Tiandi!
After Xiao Lin slapped the Hun Tu Fan out of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, some time passed, and on the day of the decisive battle between the Heavenly Mansion Alliance and the Soul Hall, the Hun Tiandi came to visit.
To be honest, when the Hun Tiandi arrived, Xiao Lin thought for a moment that the other party was going to kill him!
But who would have thought that the other party would calmly invite me to watch the match?
At that moment, Xiao Lin was completely dumbfounded.
He had no idea what the Hun Tiandi was really up to.
But after some thought, Xiao Lin ultimately did not refuse the Hun Tiandi's invitation.
That's why the two of them are now in the Fallen Mountain Range.
At this moment, with the arrival of the Soul Hall and the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, the two sides began to confront each other, while Xiao Lin and the Hun Tiandi chatted idly.
Originally, the Hun Tiandi had hoped to see a look of surprise on Xiao Lin's face, a result of the Soul Hall changing its Hall Master, but to his dismay, there was none!
Xiao Lin's expression, on the contrary, seemed even calmer than his!
This puzzled the Hun Tiandi, and he frowned slightly.
Could it be that his purpose in sending Hun Tu to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace has been seen through?
At this moment, even the Hun Tiandi couldn't help but have such doubts.
Otherwise, Lin Xiao's calm expression at this moment would be inexplicable.
"I'm surprised! Of course I'm surprised! What, didn't you notice?"
Just then, Xiao Lin suddenly made a slightly exaggerated expression.
However, the Hun Tiandi could clearly see the hint of mockery that flashed in Xiao Lin's eyes.
Hun Tiandi: "..."
The Hun Tiandi was somewhat speechless at this.
For a moment, he didn't even know what to say.
"Lin Xiao, it seems I underestimated you! I think you should have foreseen everything that happened today, right?"
Although it was a question, the Hun Tiandi's tone was very confident.
"Heh, does it matter whether we see through it or not? At our level, it's just a fight between 'children.' Even if the Soul Hall gets a new Hall Master, it won't affect me at all!"
Xiao Lin chuckled softly, a hint of mockery appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Upon hearing Xiao Lin's words, the Hun Tiandi was taken aback, and then began to scrutinize Xiao Lin from head to toe again.
After an unknown amount of time, the Hun Tiandi finally spoke again, slowly saying, "Interesting. Judging from past experience, Lin Xiao, you should be particularly concerned about the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, especially about that little guy named Xiao Yan. Why are you acting so indifferent this time?"
Are you putting on an act for me, or are you confident in Xiao Yan abilities even if something unexpected happens?
The Hun Tiandi's words carried an obvious sense of probing.
Hearing this, Xiao Lin was immediately startled.
It must be said that the Hun Tiandi, as a schemer, possessed remarkably keen perception.
Even though Xiao Lin had been hiding in the shadows, he had already sensed something was amiss.
It could be said that, in the eyes of the Hun Tiandi, Lin Xiao was paying too much attention to Xiao Yan!
This level of attention is becoming somewhat abnormal.
Furthermore, Lin Xiao's repeated acts of standing up for Xiao Yan only added to the suspicion in the Hun Tiandi's mind.
The reason the Hun Tiandi invited Xiao Lin to watch the battle was to gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between Xiao Lin and Xiao Yan...
However, although Xiao Lin wasn't a thousand-year-old fox, he had at least read the complete collection of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio!
The Hun Tiandi's probing was not enough to cause Xiao Lin to reveal any weakness.
"Pretend? Do I need to? But you're right about one thing: I really have high hopes for Xiao Yan. He might become Dou Emperor in the future!"
Xiao Lin first raised an eyebrow, then spoke with an air of seriousness.
However, as Xiao Lin finished speaking, the Hun Tiandi suddenly gave a sneer.
"You're saying that little guy has the potential to become Dou Emperor?"
The Hun Tiandi's tone carried a hint of ambiguity.
He had originally been curious about why Lin Xiao paid so much attention to Xiao Yan.
Now that he heard the other party's evaluation of Xiao Yan, he put aside his curiosity.
It seems they had excessively high expectations for that little guy, Xiao Yan!
If Lin Xiao thought Xiao Yan could break through to the Nine-Star Dou Saint, he might pay some attention to that little guy, but Dou Emperor was pure nonsense!
Clearly, the Hun Tiandi did not believe Xiao Lin's explanation.
But thinking about it, who would believe something like that would happen to them?
In particular, Hun Tiandi was one of the few people in the entire Dou Qi Continent who knew that breaking through to Dou Emperor required Origin Qi.
Therefore, he never believed that anyone on the Dou Qi Continent could become Dou Emperor except himself!
This confidence comes from the Hun Tiandi!
But who could have imagined that such a day would actually come?
However, at the very least, the Hun Tiandi won't believe it for now.
Meanwhile, in the eyes of the Hun Tiandi, because of Lin Xiao's excessively high expectations of Xiao Yan, he no longer had any doubts.
That's exactly what I think!
Seeing that the Hun Tiandi had an ambiguous expression, Xiao Lin instead appeared very serious.
People sometimes have a rebellious streak.
The more serious Xiao Lin appeared, the more the Hun Tiandi's suspicions about the relationship between him and Xiao Yan were dispelled.
"Okay, I'll wait for that day to come."
The Hun Tiandi spoke these words casually, clearly not seriously.
You'll wait.
Xiao Lin said with a faint smile on his lips.
The Hun Tiandi had no doubts about this.
He thought Lin Xiao, like most people, didn't know that breaking through to the Dou Emperor required Origin Qi...
Therefore, in the eyes of the Hun Tiandi, the less Lin Xiao knows, the more advantageous it is for him!
In this way, he can plan his strategy more calmly...
