Chapter 1295: Passing Away
Xiao Dongxu had sorted out a few of the threads, but he could not help feeling a sense of bewilderment. What Mister Chen had said to Yu Youyu was completely identical to what the Mister had told him earlier.
For a moment, he could not distinguish truth from falsehood.
Yet, when it came to Yu Youyu being granted Divine Abilities and Daoist arts, Xiao Dongxu harbored a few lingering doubts.
The entire affair seemed to have come out of nowhere.
It was framed as a reward for Yu Youyu safeguarding the Listening Rain Sword, but Xiao Dongxu vaguely sensed that this was not the real reason.
If Mister Chen was telling the truth, it meant the one who had imparted the Daoist methods to Yu Youyu was actually that fiend.
But what purpose could that possibly serve?
Xiao Dongxu appraised Yu Youyu once more. He vaguely recalled that, some time ago, she had harbored murderous intent toward the Human Sovereign. But that was a matter of the past...
Perhaps the true crux of the issue lay with Yu Youyu herself.
