"Miss Shi, it seems you're quite an actress indeed," Jiang Chen smirked, looking at Shi Qinglu with a face full of amusement.
If it weren't for Jiang Chen's powerful Divine Sense, anticipating some traces of deception, he might really have been fooled by Shi Qinglu's series of expressions and actions earlier.
Shi Qinglu previously put on an act of utter defeat, seemingly convinced and submitting neatly with handing over the antidote and the Trial Beads.
According to the logic of most people, they would think that Shi Qinglu, being the vanquished, handing over the spoils was the natural course of action.
Jiang Chen thought so at first as well, but the moment he received the storage ring, a ripple and reminder appeared in the chain of seals within his spirit ocean.
This gave Jiang Chen a sudden sense of caution, and this early warning helped him avoid the attack of the silver needle.
It has to be said, Shi Qinglu is indeed a troublesome opponent.
