The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 758 - 266: The Gossip Turns on Oneself

Liu Ji’s words caught Meng Po’s attention, so much so that she couldn’t help giving him an extra glance. She realized that although this man in green was not as handsome as Lin Yun, he too was a handsome fellow.

His speech just now was indeed quite eloquent.

However...

"If you’re willing to go to such lengths for her, why did she still have a child with someone else?"

Zhang Biyu now only retained a sliver of True Spirit, but before the destruction of the Reincarnation Well, Meng Po had been the Divine Spirit in charge of reincarnation. Thus, she was vastly knowledgeable of the kinship and blood relations of living beings. A single glance was enough for her to discern the mother-daughter relationship between Zhang Biyu and Snow Maiden, confirming their kinship.

But Snow Maiden and Liu Ji did not share a father-daughter connection.

Meng Po’s eyes were even more reliable than a paternity test, and with this revelation, the relationship between Liu Ji and Zhang Biyu appeared somewhat complex.

So, she asked with great curiosity. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Upon hearing this, Liu Ji completely broke down, unable to say a word and now self-secluded.

It was at this moment that the Minotaur, who had been shot at by Lin Yun for a while, also gradually recovered his wits. Feeling like he had gained the upper hand in intelligence, he couldn’t help but shout excitedly, "Yesss!"

In every sense, this was a moment of pure ecstasy for the Minotaur.

Seeing that the Minotaur had regained his senses, Lin Yun knew he must be in a similar state to Meng Po, so he stopped firing and pricked up his ears, ready to join in on the drama.

The juicy details of Liu Ji and Zhang Biyu were not even mentioned since he had already noticed some clues beforehand and used them to attack Liu Ji, but Zhang Biyu actually had a child with someone else?

This was truly explosive.

Brother Ji, don’t cry, it’s all because your Green Lotus Sect loves green clothing. There’s a reason why it’s frowned upon!

"Zhang Biyu had a child with someone else? When did this happen? How old is the child? Who’s the father?"

With each question Lin Yun asked, Liu Ji’s face grew darker.

Qian Qian, however, couldn’t help but tilt her head in confusion.

Wait, Lin Yun didn’t know that Snow Maiden was Zhang Biyu’s daughter?

Didn’t she previously say that the Snow Maiden’s parents had boundless magical power in their heavenly sacrifice?

With Lin Yun’s intellect, how could he not have guessed?

It seems Qian Qian had overestimated Lin Yun.

Sure, his mind worked quickly, but he wasn’t clairvoyant, able to guess everything.

He hadn’t considered that possibility at all and just assumed that Qian Qian meant Snow Maiden was an orphan with great power, thus Zhang Biyu was no match for her.

As for Snow Maiden wanting to send Zhang Biyu into the Reincarnation Well, Lin Yun simply thought there was some story between the two, without contemplating that Snow Maiden was Zhang Biyu’s daughter.

After all, Zhang Biyu had schemed against Snow Maiden and even coveted her physical body, which didn’t seem like something a mother would do.

"Her daughter is right there, isn’t she? Don’t you humans seek to know everything about your own women?"

Meng Po was indeed puzzled. She didn’t know how long she had been trapped in the Reincarnation Well; perhaps the times had changed.

Lin Yun: "..."

Did the juicy gossip just turn on me?

Is Zhang Biyu actually my mother-in-law?

This... this... this...

She used to flirt with me, thank goodness my willpower is strong; otherwise, I would have made a huge mistake.

Seeing Lin Yun looking quite embarrassed now, Qian Qian quickly changed the subject, "Let’s not talk about that right now. Why is there so much resentment here, and what should we do if we absorb too much of it? Do you guys have a solution?"

Qian Qian worried about losing control, even more about turning into something ghastly like Meng Po just now. She knew that even if she lost control, she might be fine after being burned by Lin Yun, but still, she was quite anxious.

As a goddess, she was very conscious about her appearance. If her head were to become like Meng Po’s, tentacles sprouting out, all disgusting and horrifying...

If Lin Yun saw her in such an ugly state, she would rather hide away forever and never regain consciousness.

Meng Po, with a nonchalant shrug, said, "If I had a way, I wouldn’t have lost control. As for why there is so much resentment, it all started with the collapse of the Reincarnation Well, which involves too many taboos. Are you sure you want to hear it?"

Qian Qian, sensing the crisis in Meng Po’s words, immediately shook her head.

Meng Po felt bored instantly; Qian Qian’s power wasn’t inferior to hers, yet she was overly timid.

Meng Po then complained, "Indeed, you don’t need to know too much. Anyway, if something really happens, your little man can just burn you a bit, and you’ll be fine. But I recommend you use this kind of fireproof fabric, or maybe skin that stupid Minotaur. Otherwise, if you get burned to the point where not even your hair remains, that would be quite unbecoming."

Qian Qian couldn’t stand such direct words and could only retort with embarrassment and annoyance, "He’s not my man!"

Though she said that, she couldn’t help but glance at Lin Yun, locking eyes with him just then, which gave her a scare. She quickly turned her head away, looking towards the Minotaur being consumed by flames.

At the moment, both the Minotaur and Meng Po had regained consciousness, and their combat strengths appeared evenly matched.

The advantage they had right now was all thanks to Lin Yun’s maneuvering. If he withdrew the flames and both the Minotaur and Meng Po turned hostile again, it would still bring them a lot of trouble.

If that happened, Lin Yun might not achieve the same effect by replaying his old tricks, and he might have to reveal even more of his abilities, which would be somewhat of a loss.

So, Lin Yun pretended to forget about this issue and kept the flames going. If the Minotaur got nicely roasted, they could have braised beef tonight.

The Minotaur was unaware that Lin Yun could retract the flames and thus silently endured them.

His physique was extraordinarily robust; even being burnt by Lin Yun’s flames did not trouble him a bit. On the contrary, the flames purging the resentment on his body felt so relieving that he couldn’t help but grunt contentedly a couple of times.

Suddenly the center of everyone’s attention, the Minotaur thought they were looking because of his grunting and felt a bit embarrassed.

But as a brave Minotaur, he certainly wasn’t going to be intimidated by such a small incident and chose to face it head-on.

Pretending nothing had happened, he put on a dopey smile and said, "About the topic you guys were just discussing, I actually know a bit about it too, and, as long as we do not mention the name of the forbidden objects, it shouldn’t affect you."

Their recurrent mention of ’taboo’ made Qian Qian’s heart as uncomfortable as if cats were scratching it; she was dying to know yet her instincts told her it was very dangerous and better left untouched.

Torn between curiosity and the instinct to survive, Qian Qian chose survival.

However, since the Minotaur said it was okay, maybe they could listen and see.

Thus, they all turned to look at the Minotaur, expressing their desire through their gaze.

Hurry up.

The Minotaur didn’t keep them in suspense and directly said, "There are two things you are most concerned about. One is whether the Reincarnation Well can let beings reincarnate again, and the other is the origin of this resentment of all beings, right?"

Everyone nodded together.

The Minotaur, holding his steel trident, guided the Golden Flames on his body to the trident and flicked it, dispersing some of the yellow fog nearby.

A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Yun’s eyes; the Minotaur’s strength was substantial, easily neutralizing his flames.

But the Minotaur had been clear-headed for a while now; he hadn’t shown this ability earlier. Was it that his strength had mostly recovered, and he was now flexing his muscles?

Lin Yun felt something was amiss and quietly called back Little Gold...
