Gu Sheng put down the cup, his voice still calm, though it carried an undeniable penetration power.
"You're not truly lacking in that piece of Spirit Jade. Taking on the guide task was merely a reasonable excuse for using Spirit Stones for cultivation later, to avoid arousing suspicion."
Gu Yuan's body trembled violently, instinctively clenching his fists, nails digging deep into his palms.
In front of Gu Sheng, she felt as if all her disguises had been stripped away, nakedly exposed to the sunlight.
"The place where you hide your resources," Gu Sheng's gaze seemed to penetrate the walls, eyeing the distant depths of the ruins.
"It's near the Thousand Souls Hall, right?"
These words completely crushed Gu Yuan's psychological defenses.
She sprang up from the chair, took two steps back, her back hitting the wall heavily, her eyes filled with extreme horror and instinctive vigilance!
The Thousand Souls Hall! That was where her greatest secret lay!
How could he know?!
