Combining all these clues, Xu Fei made a bold guess about the true identity of the Red Buddha Society’s president.
“You’ve finally arrived, quite bold for someone so young!”
At that moment, the president sat on a high chair, looking down at Xu Fei with an air of superiority.
Xu Fei wasn’t intimidated by such theatrics, he chuckled and said.
“This is our first meeting, isn’t it, beauty? No need to act so high and mighty, right?”
Though Xu Fei’s words were simple, the word “beauty” noticeably shook the president’s composure.
Her voice began to tremble slightly.
“You… how did you know I’m a woman? No one’s discovered this in over a decade!”
“No one noticed in over a decade because they’re incompetent, do you think I’m like those dim-witted fools, beauty?”
Xu Fei pressed his verbal assault, fully aware of his strategy.
Since the president had gone to great lengths to conceal her female identity, it meant she deeply resented and cared about her true self.
So Xu Fei kept hammering on this point, aiming to unsettle her mentally.
In a duel between experts, it’s not just about seizing every second, but also about who has more experience and a steadier mindset.
Xu Fei’s tactic initially had a slight effect, but the president soon caught on.
She decided to throw caution to the wind, tearing off her long robe with a flourish to reveal her true form.
“That’s right, I am a woman, and I hate that I was born one!”
“But this secret has never been known, and today, having seen my true self, you’ll pay with your life!”
The president clearly loathed having her true identity exposed by Xu Fei.
After saying this, she launched a direct attack.
With a wave of her hand, waves of true qi rapidly spread out, enveloping the entire temple.
Xu Fei sensed something amiss, suspecting she was trying to create a domain with her true qi, much like he had done before.
If he remained within her domain, he risked falling under her control.
So Xu Fei quickly retreated, taking cover in a corner of the temple.
This spot happened to be at the very edge of the true qi coverage released by the president.
However, Xu Fei didn’t realise that her actions weren’t aimed at forming a domain around herself, but at activating something else.
Under the stimulation of her true qi, the temple’s appearance slowly began to change.
Xu Fei noticed the entire temple transform, becoming identical to the underground palace he’d seen before.
From the floor tiles to the ceiling and even the pillars, everything turned ancient and weathered, exuding an archaic aura.
Moreover, the floor, ceiling, and walls were now inscribed with intricate and complex formations.
The only difference from the underground palace was that this place was a mere fraction of its size.
“Do you see? From the moment you stepped foot here, you were destined to lose!”
