Murong Chong had known absolutely nothing about the Nilong Sword’s emergence. He had only learned of it after Jiang Chen mentioned it. However, the moment he entered Divine Sword Villa, he sensed something was wrong, so he kept his guard up. He had intentionally mentioned a timeframe of six months ago; in reality, he had met the old master of Divine Sword Villa only recently, not half a year ago. Now, he was basically certain that the man before him was a fake—though he possessed the same appearance, he was not the true old master of Divine Sword Villa. Therefore, Murong Chong had deliberately brought up the topic of the sword’s emergence to bait the man into revealing more information.
As soon as Murong Chong spoke, Jiang Chen understood what was happening, as he also knew that Murong Chong’s meeting with the old master had been very recent, not six months ago.
"So that's what it’s about." The old man in the green robe finally spoke. "Old Master Murong, don't blame me for playing dumb. The matter of the Divine Sword is of such great significance that, in my heart, I really didn't want to take you to see it."
