Not Even Pretending Anymore?

Just as the allied forces were desperately chasing after the Hun Clan, Xiao Yan had quietly arrived beside his grandfather without anyone noticing.

Xiao Lin's appearance in the Gu Clan has made many people who don't know his identity want to learn more about him.

Unfortunately, now is really not the right time!

Otherwise, Gu Yuan would probably have surrounded Xiao Lin long ago!

After all, it's already quite incredible that the once-declining Xiao Clan could produce a Xiao Yan, find a Xiao Chen, and even have the brothers Xiao Ding and Xiao Li reach the Dou Sheng Realm.

But who could have imagined that above them, there was this Xiao Lin, an old monster who could single-handedly face three mid- Mid-Stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng Hun Clan undead and even gain the upper hand?

If the timing weren't so inappropriate, a group of people would have come over and exposed Xiao Lin's "underwear"!

However, it is foreseeable that after this battle has come to a temporary close, someone will still come to investigate Xiao Lin's situation.

However, that's a story for another time.

At the very least, no one has that time right now.

Only Xiao Yan, being a member of the Xiao Clan, could approach his grandfather without any reservations to subtly inquire about things he wanted to know.

During the pursuit of the Hun Clan, Xiao Lin saw Xiao Yan approaching him and knew that the boy had something to say.

"As expected, even now I still can't see through you, Grandpa! No, should I call you Grandpa, or..."

"Stop!"

Xiao Yan was about to continue speaking when Xiao Lin interrupted him.

At this moment, it was clear that Xiao Yan had already guessed a certain truth.

However, it was precisely because he had guessed that Xiao Yan's tone just now carried a hint of dissatisfaction.

He said, "There aren't that many coincidences in the world."

It turns out my grandpa has been playing two roles all along, just to amuse me!

And what about him?

She was completely fooled by her own grandfather!

He used to think that what his grandfather meant by "I have a friend" was real, but it turns out it was just a fabricated "friend"!

"What's wrong?"

Now that he already knows his grandfather's other identity, is his grandfather still going to stubbornly deny it?

"Don't rush. My identity is still useful. There's something I need to do first, and I can't let the Hun Tiandi know about it!"

Xiao Lin spoke very seriously.

Xiao Lin was worried that if Xiao Lin spoke, others nearby would hear him, and then if they made a fuss, the Hun Tiandi would find out.

Then he couldn't guarantee whether his next plan would succeed.

After all, Xiao Lin had some guesses about what the Hun Clan would do next.

If the Hun Tiandi knew his identity, he probably wouldn't have allowed the Four Elders of the Soul Clan to do that thing.

It can be said that this time, the Hun Clan was scheming against the Allied Forces, while Xiao Lin was scheming against the Hun Clan.

"Is there anything else to be done?"

Seeing that his grandfather's expression was serious and earnest, and he didn't seem to be faking it, Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment before ultimately deciding not to immediately reveal his grandfather's other identity.

"Ah, of course! Moreover, it's also related to those four living dead Eight-Star Dou Sheng of the Hun Clan. Otherwise, do you think those three old guys, Hun Shengtian, Hun Yao, and Hun Jue, could have held out against your grandpa for so long?"

You're seriously underestimating your grandpa!

Xiao Lin nodded first, then gave him a look that said, "Who do you think you are?"

Seeing the expression on his grandfather's face, Xiao Yan was somewhat taken aback.

However, he seemed to be deep in thought when he heard what his grandfather said.

After all, Xiao Yan has already guessed his grandfather's other identity.

Therefore, he didn't think his grandfather was exaggerating.

"That's true. Although I don't know your exact strength, Grandpa, I imagine you're no weaker than Nihility Devouring Flame, right? I originally thought those three old guys had some kind of teamwork to hold out against you for so long. Turns out you were holding back, Grandpa?"

"But Grandpa, what do you plan to do to those three old guys, and Hun Yuantian?"

Xiao Yan first showed an expression that said, "I finally understand," but then a second question popped into his mind.

Besides being at the level of Eight-Star Dou Sheng and being living dead, what else is so special about those four old guys?

"Those four old guys have something I want! When I fought three of them in the Gu Realm just now, I didn't kill them, just to force them to hand over that thing."

I didn't expect them to hold back for so long.

But then, I can't think of any reason why they wouldn't use it...

Xiao Lin first gave an explanation, then a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.

Now that Xiao Lin has guessed that Xiao Yan knows his identity, he no longer hides things from him.

After all, with Xiao Yan's current strength, there's basically nothing he needs to hide from the other party.

Since that's the case, why not have Xiao Yan cooperate with me next?

At the same time, Xiao Yan naturally understood the meaning behind his grandfather's words.

Clearly, the Four Elders of the Soul Clan must possess some kind of "powerful weapon"!

That's exactly what my grandfather wanted.

However, since it's a "powerful weapon," he doesn't know if it will threaten the other members of the allied forces when the Four Elders of the Soul Clan use it...

Xiao Yan wasn't some saint, but he still couldn't remain indifferent to the threat posed to the allied forces.

Especially now that he's learned something from his grandfather.

"Grandpa, when those four members of the Hun Clan use that thing you mentioned, will the allied forces be in danger?"

Xiao Yan tentatively asked.

"Meeting!"

Xiao Lin did not hide this from Xiao Yan either.

Xiao Yan: "?!"

Hearing his grandfather's answer without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Yan was astonished.

He suddenly realized that his grandfather seemed to be using the Allied Forces as bait!

"Ah! This..."

"But, aren't you here?"

Xiao Yan was about to say something, Xiao Yan interrupted him again.

"I?"

Xiao Yan pointed to himself, his eyes filled with confusion.

As for Xiao Lin, he was all smiles.

In the past, he always used "schemes" to trick Xiao Yan; today, he's going to switch to "open schemes"!

"That's right. With your current strength, plus Lei Ying and Yan Jin, we should be able to hold out for a while. Grandpa believes in you! Then I'll take this opportunity to snatch that item from those four old guys..."

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lin revealed a little bit of his plan to Xiao Yan.

After hearing his grandfather's arrangements, Xiao Yan's lips twitched.

Good heavens, he really wanted to exclaim, "Good heavens!"

Is this really a case of not even bothering to act anymore?

What do you mean by "he's still here"?

Isn't this just making myself take the fall?

Xiao Yan began to doubt once again whether he was truly his grandfather's grandson.

Why is it that my own grandfather, no matter what he does, never forgets to sabotage me?

What's worse this time is that they're openly telling themselves they're going to screw them over!

"Grandpa, can I refuse?"

Xiao Yan asked back with a look of grief and indignation.

What do you think?

Xiao Lin, on the other hand, gave Xiao Yan a look that said, "You'll understand."

Seeing this, Xiao Yan knew that he had no choice but to accept.

Moreover, although his grandfather was practically saying "I'm going to screw you over," to be fair, if things really came to that, he would definitely step forward to stand in front of the Allied forces.

Therefore, it seems that he really has no way to solve his grandfather's "open scheme"!

So, he had no choice but to accept it!
