Chapter 188 - Cheating The Geniuses

"Who are you?" The one who spoke was the happy-looking young man. His smile was gentle and displayed his sharp canine teeth, giving him an air of mischief.

While he was much more outgoing than the others, Little Chu and Bai Rouyun did not have much of an opinion about him, but they were not so stupid as to announce their identities.

Those who had arrived from the Cultivation World had all come for the sake of getting close to Li Moyun, or to find some way to handle him.

It was without a doubt that Bai Rouyun was his weak spot, and capturing her would cause him a lot of distress.

"Us?" Little Chu asked with a friendly smile on his face. "I am Chu Mo, and this is my sister, Chu Bai."

He was aware that he could not tell them that they were from the same faction, as anyone could sense the difference in their cultivation bases.

Hence he came up with another solution.

The group of experts did not doubt his words. It was natural that a genius would be taken in by a faction. They even began creating their own backstory for the two of them.

They assumed that Mo Chu was from this area, and that he had been found by a faction due to his outstanding talents, before he had been taken back to a sect.

After hearing that the situation was different here, he had been sent back to try and get some information while taking the chance to meet up with his sister, whom he likely missed a lot after being brought back to the sect.

They, too, understood his emotions as they were also separated from their families when they got sent to the sect, so if they had the chance, they would naturally also meet up with their siblings on the way while doing a mission.

"May I ask which faction you belong to?" the one who asked was one of the stoic figures. He was polite when asking, but his attitude clearly stated that he could not accept a vague answer.

"My brother is from the Shitian Tower!" Bai Rouyun acted as if she was proud. Her eyes shone with admiration and pride as she spoke before Little Chu even had the chance to open his mouth.

He had initially intended to say the Eternal Shadow Palace. Still, upon thinking about the current situation, that would not be very safe, so he could only smile adoringly and shake his head when he heard her speak out like this.

To the others, it looked as if he was helpless over her naivety. Usually, one would not announce their faction that eagerly, but she was doing it happily, making them believe in her words. Clearly, she was just a young girl incredibly proud of her brother.

The seven experts all felt amazed. The Shitian Tower was known to be neutral, and not get involved in the drama between the numerous factions within the Cultivation World.

However, no one dared to overlook them, or slight them in any way. The Shitian Tower was the strongest faction in the entire continent.

But this was also reasonable. Little Chu seemed to be only a year or two older than them, but he was already so strong. Only a faction like this could groom such powerful cultivators.

Bai Rouyun and Little Chu could not help but exchange glances. They had never thought that their masquerade would be this believable, but they were also somewhat relieved.

"I was of the impression that the Shitian Tower was neutral." The one who spoke was one of the arrogant young men. He looked at Little Chu without hiding his jealousy.

While he, too, was a genius coming from a good faction, it could not hold a candle to the Shitian Tower, and he was of the impression that if he had been given the same resources as this Chu Mo in front of him, then he would have been even stronger.

It was not only him who looked jealous: three of them had expressions as if they had eaten a fly, two looked as if they did not care, and the final two had admiring gazes.

From this, Bai Rouyun could easily tell that they were not a group of companions. They were likely to have been sent out together for the first time, and that their characters were clashing. She could feel the hidden undercurrents in their behavior, and thought it was rather amusing.

"The Shitian Tower is indeed neutral," Little Chu acted as if he had not noticed the disagreement and jealousy between them, and continued to answer their questions. "Even so, we still need to get information and gain knowledge of the current state of affairs in the continent."

His answer was impeccable, no one could question what he said, and the seven began to feel relaxed. The conversation was pleasant, and there were no signs of disagreement between them. For now, it seemed as if a battle was not going to happen.

Even so, Bai Rouyun and Little Chu did not relax their vigilance. They understood that if they did, they were likely to be stabbed in the back.

"It was a pleasure to run into you," Little Chu said politely. He had not asked them any questions about their background, strength, or purpose, and he did not show any interest in spending more time alongside them.

"We will have to excuse ourselves, as I do have a task at hand, which needs my attention."

The group of seven was not going to hold them back, as they already had plenty of unrest within their group. If they ended up traveling towards Canglan City with these two, then their disagreements would become evident for all to see, and they would lose face for their sect.
