Chapter 2095: Chapter 2115: He has the Right to Know the Truth!_1

Xiao Shubo looked at Lin Chen with a complex gaze, "I’m glad you came back safe, thank you for standing up for me."

Lin Chen laughed heartily, "No need to be polite, I just couldn’t stand their overbearing attitude, it was too excessive."

Xiao Shubo nodded, didn’t say much, but he took this matter to heart.

In this world where lives are easily lost and body and soul could be wiped out, Lin Chen, knowing the powerful Sea Shark Sect was involved, still dared to stand and speak for him, it was not something an ordinary person could do.

Lin Chen had drawn away Chen Xiong and the others, otherwise, with Chen Xiong’s personality, who knows how he would make things difficult for him?

Maybe they would directly extort and rob them, grabbing all their belongings, which was quite possible, as it was a common tactic in the Secret Realm.

No matter the result, this was a huge favor.

Lin Chen looked at Xiao Shubo, hesitated a bit, but eventually made a decision.

He could leave this team anytime, and since this matter involved Xiao Shubo, and they got along well, he felt the need to tell him about the situation.

As for what Xiao Shubo would do about it, it was up to him.

But right now everyone was present, and it would be inconvenient to say it out loud, so he would find another time.

Xiao Shubo saw Lin Chen looking at him with a sympathetic gaze and probably guessed that it was due to his ordeal. Xiao Shubo ran his gaze over everyone and said in deep tone, "Sorry for causing loss to everyone due to my personal matters. I will compensate everyone for the twenty Red Jade Orchid Mushrooms with other things..."

Song Jun shook his head, "What is there to compensate for? It is normal to encounter thieves in the Secret Realm, you don’t have to worry about it."

Lu Xinyan and Hong Guilin also expressed that they didn’t need any compensation from Xiao Shubo.

Lu Xinyan’s voice was soft but firm, "It’s all thanks to your good luck that we found so many valuable items. We’ve all been benefiting from you all along. We’re all a team and we should face everything together. As long as everyone is safe, nothing else matters!"

Xiao Shubo’s eyes flickered with gratitude as he bowed to the team, "Thank you all...since we’re all here, let’s move."

Xiao Shubo hastened to hit the road, hoping to make use of his good luck to find more valuable items to make up for things.

Everyone moved forward without many words.

After spending an afternoon, they gained quite a bit, although the value wasn’t particularly fascinating.

As night had fallen and it was no longer suitable to continue adventuring, everyone found a hard stone wall. They punched into it creating a large cave which was intended as a resting place.

No one felt like cooking during expeditions in the secret realm; after taking their respective medicinal pills, they meditated, gradually recovering, waiting for daybreak.

Xiao Shubo walked by himself to the cave entrance and sat down, leaning against the stone wall and staring blankly at the grayish sky.

Lin Chen came over to Xiao Shubo’s side and whispered, "Xiao Daoyou, can we talk alone?"

Xiao Shubo jerked back from his memories, looked at Lin Chen with a bit of surprise, and then readily agreed, "Alright!"

Lin Chen and Xiao Shubo left the stone cave and headed to a nearby mountaintop.

Lin Chen casually threw down Sound-isolation Technique and calmly looked at Xiao Shubo, "Today I heard some news from Chen Xiong’s mouth. As teammates, after much thought, I feel I should tell you..."

Xiao Shubo looked surprised, "You spoke with Chen Xiong?"

Lin Chen nodded, casually replied, "He thought he had the upper hand, naturally, he spoke more."

Xiao Shubo frowned, "He must have been talking about the disgraceful event of me being expelled."

Lin Chen sighed, "No, it’s about your Junior Sister."

Xiao Shubo’s face changed abruptly, "She... She’s dead, isn’t she?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, how did she die?"

"Wasn’t she killed by a Demonic Beast during an adventure in the Secret Realm? I heard many fellow cultivators died during that adventure..."

As Xiao Shubo spoke, he suddenly stopped and stared in shock. His face turned extremely pale as if he had thought of some terrifying possibility. His voice trembled, "Did she not die from a Demonic Beast’s attack?"

Lin Chen knew the truth would be harsh for Xiao Shubo, but he believed Xiao Shubo had the right to know it.

Lin Chen gently nodded, "Yes."

Xiao Shubo’s eyes suddenly reddened and fists clenched tightly, "Jiang Yuelin?"

This Jiang Yuelin was the "Senior Brother" that Chen Xiong had mentioned. Lin Chen nodded lightly, "Yes."

Xiao Shubo became energetic immediately, took a step forward and grabbed Lin Chen’s arm, "You tell me, how did he kill my Junior Sister?"

Lin Chen sighed silently and recounted everything he had heard, although some parts were a bit vague, it was enough for Xiao Shubo to understand.

Xiao Shubo’s eyes turned red while his face twisted in hatred.

"Jiang Yuelin!"

"Jiang Yuelin! I’ll make sure you meet a horrible end!"
