"You're lying."
When Xia Shuiyun said these four words, her tone was very certain.
Su Xiaomo's heart was in his mouth.
Did this cold woman discover something? That shouldn't be the case. He hid it so well!
"When you were chased by the wolf beast, I could tell that it wasn't because you ran fast, but because you cultivated some kind of movement technique." Xia Shuiyun stared at him suspiciously.
The more she was like this, the more Su Xiaomo felt uneasy.
"I was born poor. How could I cultivate a movement technique? Sister Xia, don't joke around."
"Born poor?"
Xia Shuiyun said lightly, "This kind of nonsense can only fool the elders who recruited you."
Damn!
This woman must have discovered something!
Could it be … that she was suspicious of his identity?
What should he do?
Kill her? Or destroy the evidence?
Xia Shuiyun said lightly, "You used a low status to make yourself look lowly. It's just that you don't want to attract the attention of your fellow disciples. Then, you use flattery and flattery to climb up."
She was right.
Sneaking into the Taixuan Shengzong was to make himself look lowly and use his connections to climb up.
Su Xiaomo, who was still a little hesitant, made a decision in his heart.
"Moreover."
Xia Shuiyun said, "You were attacked by spirit beasts in the Yunling Mountains. Although the other party didn't hit you hard, with your Martial Master cultivation, you couldn't have held on for so long."
Su Xiaomo frowned.
I wanted to get close to you and become a tool for my promotion. Now, it seems that I can only destroy you.
However, the sect knew that they were on a mission. If they didn't return, how could he explain it?
Su Xiaomo started to think.
Xia Shuiyun said, "You're an ambitious person. It's hard for an outer sect disciple to satisfy you. However, you have to understand that becoming an inner sect disciple doesn't depend on shortcuts. It depends on your own strength."
Huh?
Su Xiaomo was stunned.
Did she think that he was someone who deliberately lowered himself for the sake of his ambition and deliberately took advantage of both sides?
"Sigh."
Su Xiaomo shrugged and helplessly said, "In the end, we were still discovered."
The corners of Xia Shuiyun's mouth curled up slightly, revealing an almost undetectable smile. She seemed to be proud of her ability to see through the other party's ambitions.
Su Xiaomo, who was good at reading people's expressions, noticed it and thought to himself, "She probably didn't think that she was a spy. I can take this opportunity to fool her."
"I originally planned to get along with you as an ordinary person, but what I got in return was doubts."
"Stop pretending. I'll lay my cards on the table."
Su Xiaomo sat down, and the simple and honest look on his face disappeared. "I've practiced movement techniques before, and I'm deliberately currying favor with Senior Martial Brother Sun and Sister Xia."
"Was the Yunling Mountains intentional?" Xia Shuiyun asked.
"Yes."
Su Xiaomo lowered his head and pretended to be depressed. "I don't come from a good family. I don't have an ice physique like Sister Xia, and I don't have an elder grandfather. It's as difficult as ascending to heaven to establish a foothold in Taixuan Shengzong, so I can only find help from nobles."
"You're on the right track for now."
Xia Shuiyun said, "After the Yunling Mountains incident, the elders are very satisfied with you."
Su Xiaomo smiled bitterly. "Sister Xia, do you know that this satisfaction was exchanged with my life?"
"You're very smart."
Xia Shuiyun said, "In that situation, you were going to die anyway. It's better to take a gamble and delay time with your life. If you succeed, you'll be valued, but if you fail, you'll still inevitably die."
This woman was really not simple!
However.
It seemed that she had guessed off-topic!
Su Xiaomo beat her at her own game and grinned. "I made the right bet!"
He could now be sure that this woman only thought that he was bent on climbing up, and did not think that there was a deeper meaning.
"You're just lucky. If you want to establish a foothold in Taixuan Shengzong, you still have to rely on strength," Xia Shuiyun said.
Su Xiaomo said, "Strength also has to be built on resources. If I, Su Xiaomo, can be valued by the higher-ups, even if I have one-tenth of the martial arts resources of Sister Xia and Senior Brother Sun, I may not be weaker than others!"
"You're so confident?" Xia Shuiyun said.
"Phew — — —"
Suddenly, Su Xiaomo released his cultivation to the level of Wuzong, and a heavy force filled the cave.
He said proudly, "When I went down the mountain, Master often taught me that others can look down on me, but I must look up to myself!"
This should be the only truth he said since he became a spy.
Because in terms of relationship, he and Jun Changxiao were master and disciple, and the latter did often use this sentence to encourage his disciple.
"So you've been hiding your cultivation."
Xia Shuiyun's tone and eyes did not show the slightest surprise.
"Sister Xia."
Su Xiaomo said with a smile, "A straightforward person does not resort to insinuations. You deliberately asked me to do a mission, didn't you just want to test me?"
Xia Shuiyun looked at him, "What's your ambition?"
Su Xiaomo withdrew his aura and said with a sharp gaze, "To become an inner disciple, a core disciple, or even an elder, or even … a master of a sect!"
Xia Shuiyun was stunned.
This guy's ambition was quite big. He actually wanted to be a Patriarch!
At first, he did not, but now that things had reached this point, Su Xiaomo might as well say it in a big way.
"Of course."
"This is not my ambition, but my dream!"
"You can laugh at me, and you can also think that I'm daydreaming, but my dream will never change, because Master once said that a chef who does not want to be a general is not a good tailor!"
Jun Changxiao: That's right, I really did say that!
"Pfft!"
Xia Shuiyun was amused by the last sentence.
However, she realized that she had lost her image, so she hurriedly put on a stern face and said, "Dreams are not based on words, but on actions and hard work."
"I've been working hard!"
"Working hard to flatter the ignorant and incompetent Sun Yingquan, and wasting your time for nothing?"
"I want to flatter Sister Xia, but I'm afraid of delaying your cultivation."
Since he had already 'confessed', there were some things that he did not have to deliberately hide.
"Rest for two days."
Xia Shuiyun said, "Then go to the Yin Mountain Ridge."
"That …" Before Su Xiaomo could finish, he heard her say, "I'll help you keep it a secret."
"Thank you, Senior Sister!"
"Su Jintang is your real name?"
"That's right."
"Who is this Master you're talking about?"
"My Master is Old Man Jun Tian, he lives in seclusion in the mountains."
"Old Man Jun Tian?"
Xia Shuiyun secretly said, "I've never heard of this person, he should be a hidden martial cultivator."
"Phew!"
Su Xiaomo secretly sighed in relief.
Fortunately, this woman had gone off topic, thinking that he was ambitious and was not here to be a spy, otherwise he would have been forced to silence her.
… …
A few days later.
Xia Shuiyun's injuries recovered, and the two went to the Yin Mountain Ridge again.
"Senior Sister."
Su Xiaomo stopped at the outer area and said in a low voice, "I'll be responsible for luring the wolf pack first, then after shaking them off, we'll work together to kill the Yin Wind Wolf King."
"Okay."
Xia Shuiyun said.
"I'll go first."
Su Xiaomo dashed in and lured the pack of wolves out in no time.
This time, he lured them quite thoroughly, those beasts comparable to Master level were also chasing after him.
"Shua!"
Not long after, Su Xiaomo jumped out from the grass and said, "There's not much time, let's finish this quickly!"
Xia Shuiyun was stunned.
Isn't this guy running too fast?!
Time did not allow her to think carefully, she took out her three feet long sword and rushed into the forest with Su Xiaomo.
The Yin Wind Wolf King's strength was not bad, but without help, facing two Master level martial artists was destined to be a tragedy.
"Puchi!"
After fighting for a while, its head was chopped off.
"Awoo!"
"Awoo!"
Just at this time, the wolf pack that was released by the kite finally rushed back.
"Let's go!"
Su Xiaomo picked up Xia Shuiyun, who had put the wolf king's head into her spatial ring, and jumped up and down a few times, completely disappearing into the dense forest.
"Huhu — — —"
The cold wind blew by her ear, Xia Shuiyun tried to keep a distance from his chest, frowning slightly, and said in her heart, "This guy is taking advantage of me again!"
