After finishing his words, Xu Bai hung up the Communication Talisman.
His expression, however, immediately darkened.
"Despite all precautions, a flaw has inevitably been exposed."
"Liu San always seemed flippant on normal days; I didn't expect him to be so shrewd."
Indeed, in the seemingly casual conversation he just had with Liu San, Xu Bai made a mistake.
It was when Liu San mentioned the successful Foundation Establishment of a disciple that he fell silent for a moment.
This silence was due to his distrust of Liu San.
Because he knew about the difficulty of achieving Foundation Establishment with the 'Building Foundation with Me' technique. He knew it was downright impossible.
So he suspected that it might be some sort of trap, an excuse Liu San concocted to lure him back.
Common sense would dictate that upon hearing such news, one would either be surprised or doubtful and would immediately question Liu San about its veracity.
However, he fell silent instead.
