Chapter 1968: Chapter 1968: Feigned Death?
Xu Youming noticed the ghostly expression on Xu Cang Yuan’s face and frowned slightly, "What? Who is this person?"
Xu Cang Yuan’s face was stiff when he saw that familiar face; he opened his mouth but couldn’t utter a word, as if something was stuck in his throat.
Xu Canghai furrowed his brows, seemingly pondering something.
Xuanyuan Tianzhe trembled all over, and with a shaky hand, placed it on the woman’s cheek, "Baixue, is it you..."
Baixue...
Xuanyuan Baixue?
Hearing this name, Xuanyuan Che’s expression changed dramatically, murmuring, "How is this possible?"
Behind, Xu Yeming too was staring intently at the woman’s face, and suddenly all his assumptions in his mind connected, breaking down the mental wall instantly!
That name.
Back then, when Xu Yeming disguised himself as Xu Luo, along with Hong Ying and Blackie who protected this disguise, visited the Xuanyuan Clan, he had Blackie investigate some intelligence regarding the Xuanyuan Clan.
At that time, Blackie saw a tombstone; it was the tombstone of the Xuanyuan Clan’s eldest daughter, and the name engraved on it was...
Xuanyuan Baixue.
At that time.
Xu Yeming guessed whether the death of the Xuanyuan Clan’s eldest daughter was due to someone’s manipulation to frame the then strongest genius of the Xu Family—his father Xu Canghai—to weaken the Xu Family’s combat power.
This guess went in two directions.
Firstly, it could be someone within the Xuanyuan Clan pulling the strings behind the scenes, aiming to prevent the Xu Family from becoming stronger and surpassing them, or to stop Xuanyuan Baixue from marrying Xu Canghai.
Secondly, it could involve people led by Xu Cang Yuan, all vying for the position of head of the Xu Family.
But later, when his master mentioned that the Immortal Realm had hidden agents among various forces in the Chaos Realm, Xu Yeming thought the Immortal Realm was the most probable instigator.
Now.
Xuanyuan Baixue is still alive, and everything becomes clear.
The Immortal Realm is the mastermind!
Who would’ve thought Xuanyuan Baixue was faking her death and had become a lackey of the Immortal Realm herself!
"How could you?" Xuanyuan Tianzhe exclaimed in anguish, "Why would you side with the Immortal Realm?"
Xuanyuan Baixue was his most beloved daughter, whom he had high hopes for, yet she faked her death and joined the Immortal Realm...
Xu Youming sneered beside him, "Doesn’t your Xuanyuan Clan pride itself on its aloofness? Doesn’t seem that impressive now."
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Tianzhao’s face also darkened, and he shook the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand, the Emperor Sword Intent coiled around him, stating solemnly, "I never expected a descendant of the Xuanyuan Clan to be such a lackey. Xuanyuan Tianzhe, it seems you haven’t done well as the head... as a father.
Let this old man clean up the clan personally!"
After speaking, just as he was about to brandish his sword, he saw a figure slowly step forward.
Xuanyuan Tianzhao frowned slightly, but the Xuanyuan Sword he’d raised slowly lowered.
Only to see Xu Canghai walk up to Xuanyuan Baixue, looking at that familiar face; although devoid of affection, she was his former fiancée, so his expression inevitably grew complicated, "That incident back then, although I didn’t kill you, I always thought your death had something to do with me."
Xuanyuan Baixue’s pale face, although looking thin, still carried a certain skeletal beauty. She looked at Xu Canghai and said faintly, "You managed to escape that pursuit and even regained your strength, which I didn’t expect."
Xu Canghai sighed, "With such a promising future and the best candidate to inherit the Xuanyuan Sword, why choose to side with the Immortal Realm?"
Xuanyuan Baixue looked up at Xu Canghai and surprisingly smiled.
"This is the difference between you and me. You know nothing about the Immortal Realm, about the world beyond."
The Immortal Realm and the world beyond?
In the shadows, Chu Yan’s gaze narrowed, muttering, "How does this sealed-off world know such secrets?"
Xuanyuan Baixue scanned the faces of Xuanyuan Tianzhe, Xuanyuan Tianzhao, and the various factions of the Xu Family, her laughter growing louder, "Whatever happens, in the end, the Immortal Realm will prevail! Do you really think the Immortal Realm can’t easily overrun the Chaos Realm? When the restrictions vanish, or when the sealed world is opened, the entire Chaos Realm... no, the entire Lower Five Realms will not escape!"
Xuanyuan Tianzhao snorted coldly, pointing the Xuanyuan Sword directly at Xuanyuan Baixue, shouting angrily, "Even so, shouldn’t the Xuanyuan Clan never submit to others? Have you forgotten you’re still a sword cultivator?!"
"Submit?" Xuanyuan Baixue sneered, "No, I’m just making an alliance; I only want the Xuanyuan Clan to survive this chaos and reach the Outer Heaven."
"The Xuanyuan Clan doesn’t need such an alliance." Xuanyuan Tianzhao looked at Xuanyuan Tianzhe, saying indifferently, "If you can’t do it, leave it to me."
Xuanyuan Tianzhe looked utterly pained.
Xu Canghai said, "Senior, I still want to ask something, after all, this matter does relate to me."
After saying that, Xu Canghai looked at a woman from the White Fox Clan beside him.
The White Fox Clan, which is also the clan of his wife Bai Qingxin.
"The White Fox Clan possesses a divine item for Bloodline Tracking... back then, during my escape from pursuit with Qingxin, was it because you tipped them off?"
The woman turned her head away.
Xu Canghai shook his head, saying, "Don’t want to admit it? Doesn’t matter."
After saying that, he instantly disappeared from his spot and reappeared in front of the woman, placing a hand directly on the top of her head.
Soon, the woman’s face twisted in pain, her pupils contracted, filled with fear!
"No... don’t... I’ll speak!"
"Too late," Xu Canghai said coolly.
Soul Searching Technique!
This violent soul-searching would make the searched one’s soul dissipate, not entering reincarnation!
Back then, Xu Canghai was naturally headstrong and very temperamental.
Facing someone like this, Xu Canghai wouldn’t waste any words.
Xu Yeming, watching from the side, couldn’t help but chuckle; his old man still had it!
When it’s time to act, he acts, no hesitations.
However, just as he began to extract the woman’s soul, Xu Canghai’s expression changed, and he quickly retreated.
The woman’s body and soul both exploded right in place!
Nearby, Xuanyuan Baixue said, "It’s useless; you won’t get any information. Our souls all have restrictions placed on them."
"Pah, traitor," Du Gubai spat angrily.
At this point, Xu Yeming stepped forward, saying, "Since you’ve been faking your death while working for the Immortal Realm, surely with your intricate connections to the Xuanyuan Clan... and the Xu Family, there must be an insider, right?"
Xuanyuan Baixue looked at Xu Yeming puzzled, "What are you talking about?"
Xu Yeming looked at Xuanyuan Baixue, "Playing dumb won’t help. Back then, I sensed a gaze upon me. That gaze was yours, wasn’t it? Why else would you stare at me unless you knew my identity? Do I really look more handsome than my old man?"
Xu Canghai’s eyebrow twitched at his son’s words.
"If it wasn’t you, then there’s only one explanation: you knew my identity because you knew my father is Xu Canghai," Xu Yeming continued. "But that would be strange since without an insider constantly feeding you information, how could you possibly know my identity?"
"And this insider must be someone from the Xu Family, and that person is definitely the Immortal Realm’s hidden agent within the Xu Family."
Reaching this,
Xu Yeming looked toward the person behind Xu Cang Yuan, smiling, "Isn’t that right, Xu Chen?"
