Xiao Zhuyun glanced at the two dark-skinned maids behind Chen Ming and said, "This concerns a secret; I ask the young master to dismiss everyone around."
Oh?
Chen Ming first looked at Zhang Mingyu. Seeing he had no expression, his curiosity grew. He waved his hand to have Chunxiang and Xiaxiang guard outside, preventing anyone from approaching the living room.
Xiao Zhuyun spoke astonishingly, "Young Master, do you know you are in grave danger?"
This kind of trick naturally couldn't scare Chen Ming. He sincerely said, "I ask the lady for guidance."
Xiao Zhuyun saw his composure and regarded him a bit higher, saying, "Sun Shicai believes Huo Elder has passed the Sword Manual to you. He is deranged enough to murder his mentor for the manual; do you think he will spare you?"
Murder the mentor?
Chen Ming's expression changed, subconsciously looking toward Huo Qianqian and Zhang Mingyu and seeing their grief-stricken faces, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
