Chapter 153 Ling Lan's true identity

The moment the shrill cry for help reached Hong Huang's ears, a strange feeling came over him. However, the situation was urgent at that time and he didn't have time to think too much. He could only bury the doubt deep in his heart for the time being. Looking back now, many doubts emerged like a tide, making him overwhelmed.

Not to mention the old man's evasive and ambiguous attitude, the sudden appearance of a lone old man and an extremely ferocious spirit beast in this place is enough to make people suspicious.

What is even more strange is that after seeing Hong Huang, the spirit beast turned around and fled without hesitation. Such abnormal behavior is difficult to explain with common sense.

Furthermore, Linglan has always been known for being lively, playful, active and playful. According to her previous personality, it is impossible for her to remain indifferent to such a strange sight and not go to find out what is going on, unless... she has known about this matter for a long time, or it is even possible that the whole thing was carefully planned by her from beginning to end.

Thinking of this, Hong Huang's eyes grew even colder. He fixed his gaze on the seemingly innocent girl before him and said in a deep voice, "Could it be that you are the one who is controlling all of this? Whether it's that spirit beast or that mysterious old man?"

Facing Hong Huang's sharp questioning, Ling Lan still smiled, gently waved her hand, and said coquettishly, "Hey, don't be so nervous! It was indeed me who did it, but I certainly had a good reason for doing so."

It is said that one should never slap a smiling person. Sure enough, when Hong Huang saw Ling Lan's charming smile that was as charming as a blooming spring flower, his originally tense facial muscles slowly relaxed unconsciously, and his originally serious and cold expression was gradually replaced by gentleness.

He then took a deep breath and opened his mouth again to inquire, "So, what is the purpose behind the actions of our beautiful, charming, and lovely Miss Ling? Please tell me frankly."

Hearing this, Ling Lan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mysterious smile. She replied softly, "I wonder if you still remember what color my eyes looked like when we first met? At that time, I was using my magical powers to carefully observe you and that person named Wu Raozhi. As for the final result... hehe, you might as well take a guess!"

Who would have thought that upon hearing this, Hong Huang would unexpectedly say something like this: "Do you want to guess or not?"

This sudden answer made Ling Lan stunned at first. She obviously had not expected the other party to give such an answer. But after just a moment, she came to her senses, and then she laughed out loud without any scruples, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. Her laughter was crisp and pleasant, like the ringing of silver bells, echoing in the air for a long time.

After laughing enough, Ling Lan finally stopped laughing. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hand and said slowly, "Oh my, I didn't expect you to be such an interesting person! To tell you the truth, I saw countless black lines lingering around Wu Rao that day. This is a sign unique to extremely treacherous and evil people. However, looking around you, there are colorful lines intertwined and entangled, which shows that you are completely different from the people of the Demon Blood Cult." After that, her eyes moved, staring at Hong Huang with a smile, as if she wanted to catch a different look on his face.

Facing Ling Lan's gaze, Hong Huang remained calm and composed, asking, "If that's the case, Miss Ling, have you ever observed the lines around you? What do they look like?"

"You and I are actually quite similar. Neither of us has those mysterious black lines on our bodies. It's just that I don't have as many as you do, and the colors are far less bright and colorful than yours." Ling Lan said with a sigh.

"From what you said, does that mean your original intention of joining the Demon Blood Cult is exactly the same as mine?" Hong Huang looked at her suspiciously and asked.

"That's right! We both came to the Demon Blood Cult as undercover agents with an important mission. By the way, your disguise skills are really amazing. To other people, it can be said that it is flawless and seamless. But unfortunately, it has no effect at all in front of my unique eyes. Otherwise, why would I have emphasized the word "young" when we just met? Do you think what I said makes sense, young man?" After saying this, Ling Lan's mouth corners rose slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.

"I never thought that there would be such magical powers in the world. However, in my opinion, at this moment in your eyes, I should still appear as a middle-aged man, right? After all, your eyes are not golden at the moment." Hong Huang nodded thoughtfully and responded.

"Haha, that's absolutely right! But to be honest, compared to your current uncle look, I actually appreciate your true face more. Because your real appearance is much more handsome than now, and this ordinary uncle image really buries your original charm." Ling Lan said bluntly without hiding her inner thoughts.

"As an undercover agent, if I am too conspicuous, it will undoubtedly bring myself great danger and disadvantages. However, if I carry out operations with you in the future, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult not to attract attention. After all, a woman as outstanding as you, the rate of people turning their heads to look at you when you walk on the street is definitely as high as 100%!" Hong Huang teased with a smile.

"Although I don't quite understand the deep meaning of your last words, I think you were complimenting my beautiful appearance. Haha, thank you! Since we both have the same goal, how about working together?" After Ling Lan finished speaking, she stretched out her right hand gracefully. At the same time, her charming blue eyes stared at Hong Huang in front of her like a deep lake.

Seeing this, Hong Huang extended his hand without hesitation and shook hands gently with her, then said, "It's a pleasure to work with you, Miss Ling."

Ling Lan nodded slightly, then posed another question: "It's certainly a pleasure to work with you, but I'm not sure how to address you. After all, it's certain that the name 'Diwo' is not your real name, and you're using the word 'undercover' in reverse as a pseudonym. Aren't you worried about being discovered and exposing yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Hong Huang laughed heartily, then responded, "Haha, I actually find this approach quite amusing. As for my real name, please allow me to formally introduce myself once again—my name is Hong Huang, and I am a disciple from the Quwu Sect."

"Qu Wu Zong? Hong Huang? Hmm... these two names sound quite impressive together." Ling Lan nodded lightly in approval, then introduced herself, "My name is Ling Qingyue, and I come from the Ling family in the Central Region."

After the two revealed their true identities to each other, they began a pleasant exchange until they arrived at Jigui City.
