Imperial Capital, Prince Rui's Mansion.
The Young Master listened to the words of his ancestor, completely bewildered.
But he wasn't a fool and keenly sensed something was amiss.
"What happened inside the Emperor's Pool might be more complicated than I thought!" he mused.
Otherwise, why would the ancestor immediately ask where Chu Huaixu's body and the pearl were?
This implies that the ancestor believed Chu Huaixu was already dead!
"Could it be that the ancestor personally dealt with him inside the Emperor's Pool?"
"Moreover, he managed to escape death."
"Besides that, the ancestor possibly paid a tremendous price, otherwise, he wouldn't have suddenly fallen asleep!"
Qin Xuexiao thought about it more and more, feeling shocked and terrified.
How could Chu Huaixu, with his mere Third Realm cultivation, accomplish such a heaven-defying feat!?
The thoughts in the Young Master's mind churned like raging waves.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
