"Because you didn't tell me who I am."
Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei and said slowly.
"Otherwise, you would be dead now."
"..."
Wang Pingbei trembled and lowered his head.
"Brother Chen, I will not betray you."
"Don't be nervous. Although you lied to me and secretly went to see your master, your performance was okay."
Xiao Chen patted Wang Pingbei on the shoulder.
"But you have to remember, it won't happen again."
"Yes, Brother Chen."
Wang Ping breathed a sigh of relief and straightened up slightly.
"Let's go back to the inn. I'll treat your injuries again. We have a banquet at noon."
Xiao Chen said.
"Um."
Wang Pingbei quickly followed up. Seeing that Xiao Chen really didn't care about him, he hesitated and asked.
"Brother Chen, how did you get to the south of the city?"
"After you left, I felt something was wrong with you, so I followed you."
Xiao Chen said casually.
"..."
Wang Pingbei was stunned. Xiao Chen was following him from beginning to end?
And he didn't realize it at all!
On the way there, he deliberately took many detours to get away from the people who were staring at him.
"I'm following you, do you have any objections?"
Xiao Chen glanced at Wang Pingbei.
"No, no, Brother Chen, thank you for following me, otherwise I would be dead today."
Wang Pingbei said hurriedly.
"You're quite cautious, going around and around, getting rid of the people who are staring at you."
Xiao Chen thought of something and smiled.
"That's not right, Brother Chen, aren't there more people staring at you?"
Wang Pingbei thought of something and said.
"You threw them all away?"
"Of course, it's not easy for me to get rid of them? Let them follow, but I don't care if they follow. Otherwise, who can follow?"
Xiao Chen nodded.
"They can't find me. They should be guarding me near the inn right now..."
"Then if we go back, will they suspect anything?"
Wang Pingbei was a little worried.
"Doubt? If you doubt, just doubt. Without evidence, what can you do if you doubt?"
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Relax, just try to be normal."
"Uh-huh."
The two of them talked and returned to the inn.
For a moment, one after another glances came over.
The people hiding in the inn were very excited when they saw Xiao Chen, and he appeared again.
Having lost track of him before, they were all a little panicked.
Xiao Chen was aware of the people around him and didn't pay attention, his expression was as usual.
The two walked through the lobby, went upstairs, and returned to their rooms.
"call……"
Wang Pingbei took a breath and sat on the chair.
Xiao Chen took out the blue potion and began to treat him.
"Brother Chen, thank you."
Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen and said gratefully.
"Because of my troubles, you were hurt. Not only did you not ignore me, you also healed my wounds."
"I said, just this once, and next time, I will kill you with my own hands."
Xiao Chen said lightly.
"yes……"
Wang Pingbei's heart trembled and he did not dare to say any more.
"Okay, go back to your room. We will go to the appointment at noon."
Xiao Chen put away his things and said.
"Okay...Brother Chen, I am injured, can I still go? Will they suspect anything?"
Wang Pingbei stood up and thought of something.
"No, if you don't want to go, you can stay at the inn..."
Xiao Chen said casually.
"Well, I'd better come with you. I'm a little scared at the inn by myself."
After Wang Pingbei finished speaking, he left.
Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei's back and shook his head.
If this guy wasn't quite loyal and capable of doing things well, he wouldn't have saved him.
As for what Wang Pingbei did today, he could understand it.
"It's a waste of my time, but killing that old guy should make the conflict on the second floor even greater, right?"
Xiao Chen muttered and entered the bone ring.
"#%......"
Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root ran over with a look of resentment on his face.
"Xiao Gen, it's not that I don't let you go out to play, it's that it's very dangerous outside now..."
Xiao Chen held the spiritual root of heaven and earth and said.
"How safe are you in the bone ring... I'll let you go out to play when it's safe outside, okay?"
“##……”
Tiandi Linggen curled his lips and yelled a few words.
"I'm not lying to you. It's very dangerous outside... If you get bored, just spit more."
Xiao Chen coaxed him for a long time before he coaxed the spiritual roots of heaven and earth.
After coaxing the spiritual roots of heaven and earth, Xiao Chen continued to look through ancient books.
Whether it was the competition in the morning or the life-and-death fight just now, he saw how combat skills can enhance strength.
In the past, he could basically suppress his opponents with his own cultivation.
