Chapter 620: The Lord’s Suspicion
The Lord tossed and turned the two portraits repeatedly. "You lived with this person in a bamboo house for two months?" The Lord asked her suddenly while pointing at the bearded man.
"Not really. The man would only call upon me and teach me for about an hour every night. I was allowed to visit other parts of the village for the rest of my time."
"What were you known as, in the village?"
"The master of venomous spells, a well-known one. The villagers were slightly intimidated by him. Normally, they would not even pass by his place."
"Had he shown you any moves showcasing his strength?"
"Just the venomous spell," said Gu Xijiu,2 as she frowned.
Normally, all masters were always a little enigmatic. However, the master was at the acme of all mysteries, as he had never associated with anyone.
There were only a few people from the village who had seen his face before. If it were not for Gu Xijiu to visit the bamboo house regularly for an hour each day, she would not have seen him at all.
