"She defeated Xi Xiaoling, and she did so without using any Dou Qi." The second elder glanced at the third elder and spoke with a frown.
"Her battle style is all about speed and precision, especially speed … If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that a normal person could be that fast."
Patriarch Xi recalled the way she acted when she saw Schilling's Shadow, and a faint light flashed across his eyes.
"Ever since she fell off the cliff, she's become a completely different person. Not only is she no longer as timid as before, she doesn't seem to have any feelings for Jin Yijue."
"Could it be that she ran into some kind of accident at the bottom of the cliff? Otherwise, how did she manage to return to the Xi family in one piece? "
This was something that had been on everyone's mind for a long time. On the night of Xi Mengdie's engagement ceremony, because it was a special day, the focus should have been on Xi Mengdie, so it was inappropriate to ask about it. After that, Schilling's Shadow didn't stand out in the Xi family, so she was naturally forgotten. Now that Second Elder and Third Elder brought her up, Patriarch Xi was reminded of this matter as well.
"Even if we haven't been down Ling Yun Peak, we know how steep it is. Even those with high cultivation might not be able to guarantee that they won't get hurt if they jump down, let alone a piece of trash without douqi."
The suspicion in the three elders' minds grew bigger and bigger …
Suddenly, Second Elder's eyes sharpened. "Could it be that she's the fake Schilling's Shadow and her goal is to steal our Xi family's douqi?"
When the Third Elder heard this, a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart. "No way?!"
The Xi Clan Patriarch's expression turned serious as his eyes turned cold. His figure moved and left the room in a flash. "I'm going to the Battle Skill Pavilion to find out what's going on."
Second Elder glared at Third Elder. "If she's really the fake Schilling's Shadow, then you're in big trouble."
Third Elder rubbed his nose. He was innocent, all he wanted was a smart disciple. How could he know how many people in this house were real and how many were fake?
Inside the Battle Technique Pavilion, Schilling's Shadow was surrounded by a sea of books.
To finish reading all the books in three days, it was still a bit difficult, so she had to make the best use of her time … and in this pressing time, her reading speed gradually increased.
When she was reading, her expression was calm and her gaze was sharp. Looking from afar, she was like the snow lotus on the Heavenly Mountain, distant and unreachable.
Just as she was seriously reading the book, a hand suddenly reached out from behind her without making a sound …
She felt a chill run down her spine and her eyes emitted a cold light. When she felt that the hand was full of attack power, she moved her waist and followed. In an instant, she slid three meters away with the book.
That person was also exposed from the darkness. When she saw him, she couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression. "Grandfather?"
Patriarch Xi looked at her sharply as if he wanted to see through her.
"Who are you? Why are you pretending to be my granddaughter?"
Schilling's Shadow smiled knowingly. "So Grandfather is suspicious of my identity." She slowly stood up and asked, "Why would I pretend to be your granddaughter?"
Patriarch Xi looked at the sea of books on the floor and the answer was obvious.
