After a few words, she actually fell silent again. Her eyes were absent-minded as she stared blankly at the fruit plate.    

"Do you plan to find the truth?"    

Only then did Shangguan Zhitao come back to her senses and look at him. Her eyes were vacant, "The truth..."    

Yu Yue did not let her continue. He continued, "If there is, give up on this idea. Stay here peacefully. I will help you find the truth."    

In Shangguan Zhitao's heart, she must be extremely averse to interacting with her family, which was also the people of the Carol's royal family.    

But the truth about Shangguan Xianhua must be hidden in the royal family.    

He did not want Shangguan Zhitao to be injured, so he decided to find the truth himself.    

Yu Yue pressed his hand on her shoulder. Trust me, I will help you find the truth. You just stay in the Great General's Estate and don't go out, alright?"    

The temperature of her hand seeped into Shangguan Zhitao's body. This warmth flowed along her words into her heart.    

She finally came back to her senses.    

She looked at Yu Yue with a warm look in her eyes. "Alright, I believe you, and I promise you that I won't go out. I will stay in the General's Estate."    

Yu Yue smiled and said, "Be happier, you have a younger sister out of nowhere. Why are you still so sad?"    

Shangguan Zhitao smiled and shook her head.    

"Oh right, you appeared beside Merlin to kill him?"    

"That's right, you appeared by his side to kill him. I secretly tied up the woman that Merlin doted on the most and borrowed her identity... But I didn't think that the assassination would still fail in the end. There are really different views of the strong around him, it's really hard to sneak attack him. "    

" I remember in Blood Red Castle, you thought I was a member of the Merlin Chamber of Commerce, and you hated me at that time. Do you really hate the Merlin Chamber of Commerce that much? "    

"Of course! The Merlin Chamber of Commerce chased me for almost five years. Under their pursuit, I almost lost my life several times. That's why today's assassination happened... But forget it, since I failed, I'm not going to do anything to them."    

As for why the Merlin Chamber of Commerce was hunting him, it was easy to guess from Divine Thief's identity.    

Thieves and chambers of commerce were lifelong enemies.    

After accompanying Shangguan Zhitao for a while, Yu Yue stood up. "Alright, you can rest here. I will help you find clues about your sister now."    

Speaking of his sister, her eyes were once again filled with complex emotions. She wanted to know, but she was also a bit afraid to come into contact with her sister, so she asked: "Is there no problem?"    

Yu Yue made a successful gesture to her. "Don't worry. I have a way. I will help you find the truth."    

He left the room and went to the courtyard of the General's Estate.    

He actually met Bai Lang and the others here.    

Bai Lang, Ace, and Ellie were all here, and there was another person beside them.    

Yu Yue looked at him, and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes, but he wasn't too surprised.    

Because when they had fought earlier, he had already made a guess.    

This man was the old man in white whom he had met not long ago, the terrifying swordsman!    

Ellie noticed Yu Yue's appearance and ran towards him excitedly. She grabbed his arm and shouted, "Yu Yue, it's Master! Master is here! He is the Sword Saint of Carol Kingdom that I have always told you about! I am here to see you!"    

Sure enough.    

Yu Yue's heart skipped a beat.    

The old man in white also saw him.    

Their eyes met in the air, and there was a meaningful look in their eyes.    

The smile that the old man saw was still on his face. He looked at Yu Yue and narrowed his eyes.    

"Yes, I have seen your teacher."    

Ellie blinked a little in surprise. "You have seen him? How could it be? Master usually does not come out of the mountain... Could it be that they met on the road? That is really too much of a coincidence!"    

The old man in white said," Li Er, we've indeed met. As you said, this young man's swordsmanship is indeed very strong. "    

Ellie asked curiously, "Compared to Master?"    

"He has already surpassed me."    

“！！！”    

The words of the old man in white with a smile shocked everyone present, including Bai Lang.    

Who was he? A debaucherous expert had used a sword to clear all obstacles in the way of the current king. He was known as the strongest man, Sword Saint.    

It was this Sword Saint who actually said that his swordsmanship was inferior to his. Just who was this Yu Yue?    

Yu Yue shook his head and said: "You must be joking. You are the one who is more powerful. I am not as good as your swordsmanship at all."    

This time, the crowd was confused again.    

What exactly was going on with these two's attitudes? Both of them were talking about each other's strength, leaving them completely confused.    

As the saying goes, there is no first in literature, and no second in martial arts. Both of them were swordsmen, so there would naturally be a distinction between their strengths.    

But why would they say that the other party was stronger?    

Only the two of them would know this problem.    

Both of their sword techniques had already reached an extremely high level. It was just an ordinary sword competition, and it was completely impossible to tell who was stronger and who was weaker. Only a life and death battle could allow the true strength of the two to be displayed.    

But unfortunately, the two of them did not stand on opposite sides. There was no need to fight to the death.    

Meeting a rare opponent but being unable to use all of his strength to fight was such a painful thing for a swordsman.    

Because it was a pity, that was why they would talk about how strong their opponent was, and use that as an affirmation of their opponent.    

However, none of the people around knew about it.    

In their eyes, this young man who was able to be modest with Sword Saint was really too amazing.    

"Oh right. I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now." Yu Yue said.    

After Yu Yue left, the old man stretched his back.    

"Since I have seen him, I will return to my pavilion."    

Ellie was somewhat dissatisfied as she pulled the old man and complained, "Master, it was not easy for me to come here. I will stay for another one or two days before leaving!"    

The old man touched Ellie's head lovingly. "Li Er. Since you miss Master so much, come to the pavilion to find me. Oh right, remember to bring good wine! "    

Ellie stuck out her tongue and let go of the old man's hand. She ran far away and made a face at him. "No way. Your place is full of the smell of alcohol. It smells so bad!"    

Then she ran away.    

Bai Lang looked at Ellie who left and shook his head with a smile. Then he looked at the old man. "Elder Su, are you really not going to follow us into Emperor Ansel's remains this time?"    

"No, you all went to the remains of Emperor Ansel. The Imperial City did not have much combat strength left. There had to be a few people left to guard this place. Otherwise, I'm afraid a huge mess will happen. "    

Bai Lang's expression became serious.... "Elder Su, do you mean that something might happen to the Imperial City while we are in Ansel?"    

Elder Su sighed for the first time, and the smile on his face disappeared. "I hope it's just my guess. The Imperial City is very chaotic now, and we can't throw all our people into the illusory ruins. It's hard to predict what will happen in the future..."
