Chapter 1094 The Tao is One Foot High, the Demon is Ten Feet High
Song Wanning blushed slightly, feeling even more embarrassed.
She gripped her wine glass tightly and said shyly, "I've known the Demon God for a long time; I met her when I was very young."
Song Wanning wasn't lying. She had seen the Demon God in the lower realm, not when she was a child.
She realized that Xue Mingtan was suspicious of her background and wanted to find out more.
Oh.
Now their goals have coincided.
"You saw this when you were a child?"
The deep meaning in Xue Mingtan's eyes grew even stronger, unfathomable.
"I'm rather curious, who are Miss Song's parents?"
He asked casually, then immediately added apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous. It's alright if it's inconvenient for you to say."
Throughout the entire process, he behaved with great tact, which earned him a very good impression.
Song Wanning curled her lips and said, "My parents are just ordinary people, not like adults."
"However, my parents told me not to mention their names in public."
She scratched her head awkwardly, pursed her lips, and looked very embarrassed.
She portrayed a naive young girl very convincingly.
Xue Mingtan's hands clenched slightly, clearly indicating that he believed it.
His heart sank. Could it be that there really were powerful figures in the God Realm that he didn't know about?
It seems I need to find out more details.
"Here, eat more. The food here is quite good."
Xue Mingtan piled a bowl of food high on Song Wanning's plate and continued to take care of her throughout the meal.
But he was very cautious and did not ask her about her parents again.
Song Wanning sneered inwardly; Xue Mingtan was indeed cautious.
Then she'll play along and put on a good show.
After finishing the meal, Xue Mingtan booked two rooms and said to Song Wanning, "It's rare to meet such a compatible young lady like you. If you're not in a hurry to go back, I can take you sightseeing."
"I suppose you're not very familiar with the realm of gods either."
He started trying to get information out of me again.
Song Wanning nodded, her eyes shining brightly.
"I am indeed very unfamiliar with the realm of gods. If you could take me around to see the world, I would be very happy to do so."
Her cheeks turned bright red.
Xue Mingtan became even more gentle and personally escorted Song Wanning into her room.
"See you tomorrow."
Song Wanning waved to him.
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
Xue Mingtan smiled and nodded, and a unique atmosphere rippled between the two.
The door closed.
The smiles on the faces of the two people separated by only a door vanished simultaneously, replaced by coldness and hostility.
Xue Mingtan glanced at the door a few times, then turned and went to the room next door.
Song Wanning immediately set up a restriction on herself and took out the artifact given to her by Wenren Lin to ensure that her movements would not be noticed by the neighbors.
She then took out a communication talisman, but dared not speak. Instead, she used words to send a message to the demon god.
“I’ve run into Xue Mingtan. An Ge, you’d better find a way to confirm whether he is really in seclusion.”
A terrible suspicion arose in her mind, causing Song Wanning's brows to furrow deeply.
It's all because of what happened before that the wood carving industry was on guard. Otherwise, how could they have only received the inheritance of those two gods but not their memories?
She wouldn't be so passive.
Inside the Demon God's Palace, the Demon God was studying Xue Mingtan's techniques when she received a message from Song Wanning, which surprised her somewhat.
After hearing what she heard, her face visibly darkened.
"Be careful, don't anger him, and contact me immediately if there's any danger!"
The demon god's eyes were deep and brooding. It was unlikely that Xue Mingtan would make a move against Song Wanning, since now was not the time to reveal his identity.
Therefore, Song Wanning is relatively safe.
"Yes, I know. Be careful too!"
"Don't arouse his suspicion."
"it is good!"
After the two reached an agreement, the Demon God put down the inheritance he was holding.
To find out Xue Mingtan's whereabouts, we need to find a suitable reason so as not to seem too abrupt.
Otherwise, Xue Mingtan would definitely become suspicious.
The demon god frowned slightly, and with a flash, he left the Demon God Palace and headed towards Xue Mingtan's Summer Palace.
She hasn't found a reason yet, but she can keep watch for a while and then investigate the truth once she comes up with one.
...
The next day, when Song Wanning came out of her room, Xue Mingtan was already sitting in the hall. He smiled calmly when he saw Song Wanning come down.
Today, he was dressed in a white robe, and his appearance was stunning, as if he were standing in the light.
When I turned around, everything around me truly became a mere backdrop.
Was this an angle he carefully chose?
Song Wanning sneered inwardly, but stopped in her tracks as if she were watching intently.
"They're down?"
Xue Mingtan asked softly.
Song Wanning snapped out of her daze, strode down, and looked radiant.
Her eyes were fixed on Xue Mingtan, the sunlight behind her acting as a soft filter.
Just looking at Xue Mingtan made his heart skip a beat.
It must be admitted that Song Wanning is truly extremely beautiful.
Throughout his cultivation journey, he has never seen many women more beautiful than Song Wanning.
The key point is the purity she sees; it's so rare.
Xue Mingtan's Adam's apple bobbed, and the smile in his eyes became more genuine. He raised his hand and ruffled Song Wanning's hair.
Song Wanning's eyes shone even brighter, and she smiled radiantly.
A honey trap?
She will too.
"Let's go, I promised to take you around to see the sights."
If he was only trying to gather information at first, now he also has a selfish motive.
Going sightseeing with Song Wanning for a while seems like a good idea.
"it is good!"
Song Wanning smiled brightly and then flashed Xue Mingtan's eyes again.
...
For the next two weeks, Xue Mingtan took Song Wanning on a trip, traveling to the sky and the sea, which was very interesting.
Song Wanning, on the other hand, dutifully played the role of an innocent young girl, captivating Xue Mingtan to the point of being somewhat bewildered.
But he was still trying to find out about Song Wanning.
Song Wanning was happy to cooperate, but the information she gave each time was ambiguous and there was no definite news.
She needs to stall for time, giving the demon god time to investigate.
She also noticed the change in Xue Mingtan's eyes.
Unexpectedly, the suspicious man actually liked the naive and innocent type.
Meanwhile, at the Summer Palace, the demon god finally got his chance.
However, it wasn't her who appeared; rather, the Summer Palace welcomed a celestial being.
Her eyes flickered slightly, a glint of light flashing in them.
The opportunity has finally arrived.
She continued to lie in wait outside, her aura perfectly concealed, ensuring that no one would ever know her presence.
Half a day passed before the celestial being emerged.
A figure followed behind him; it was Xue Mingtan.
"Brother Li, please take care. I will definitely handle this matter well."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Xue!"
After exchanging a few polite pleasantries, the deity departed.
An Ge noted down the identity of this deity, intending to thoroughly investigate his background to see if he was an intruder who colluded with Xue Mingtan.
After seeing the man off, Xue Mingtan did not hesitate at all, turned around and went back to the Summer Palace, and was never seen coming out again.
